Douluo Continent: The Twin Holy Dragons of Light and Darkness, the Dragon Emperor Breaks Through the

Dugu Bo hesitated.

Have a show?

For a loner like Dugu Bo, approaching him emotionally is indeed simpler than pursuing material gain.

Qian Xunji was overjoyed. Winning over a titled Douluo who was invincible in group battles would be of great benefit to the Spirit Hall.

Dugu Bo didn't take Ling Feng and Hu Liena's words seriously, after all, they were just innocent words from two children.

To be honest, Dugu Bo was tempted.

He can choose not to join the Spirit Hall, but what about his granddaughter?

Yan Yan is still young, how can she manage without playmates?

Moreover, these individuals are all from high-ranking positions within the Spirit Hall, and each has at least one Title Douluo as their backer.

He was also a Title Douluo, so they were in the same circle. Besides, the Spirit Hall had treated him with such courtesy, so how could he be an unreasonable person?

Thinking of this, Dugu Bo forced a stiff smile onto his face.

"Okay, I'll bring Yanyan to visit you guys in a while."

"She's three years old this year, she'll definitely enjoy playing with you."

Upon hearing this, Qian Xunji and the Grand Elder immediately changed the subject, pulling Dugu Bo aside to talk about interesting things on the mainland, and refraining from mentioning any rhetoric to win him over.

After all, too much of a good thing can be bad.

Dugu Bo has already agreed. After spending some time together, once Dugu Yan gets used to being in the Spirit Hall, Dugu Bo will naturally stay here.

After chatting for a while, it was time for the coronation ceremony, and Dugu Bo got up to begin the ceremony.

Ling Feng and the others stood on the viewing platform above, watching the grand ceremony, and couldn't help but feel a sense of exhilaration.

Having seen countless Title Douluos before, this was the first time they had witnessed so clearly the influence of a Title Douluo.

Below the stage, countless members of the Spirit Hall and visiting spirit masters looked up at the slender figure above them, as straight as a bamboo shoot.

Dugu Bo climbed one step at a time, and with each step he took, a new spirit ring appeared on his body. By the time he reached the top, nine spirit rings of optimal proportion had appeared beneath his feet, revealing the power of a Title Douluo.

"Dugu Bo, a level 91 Title Douluo, title: Poison!"

Golden Crocodile Douluo personally presided over the coronation ceremony and handed the robe exclusive to Title Douluo to Dugu Bo.

The robe is entirely purple-gold, symbolizing absolute nobility. On its back is a lifelike image of the Jade Serpent King embroidered with gold thread.

This robe is not only a symbol of status, but also has the effect of calming the mind and focusing energy.

"Dugu Bo, would you be willing to join the Spirit Hall and become an elder of the Spirit Hall?"

"Golden Crocodile Douluo asked."

This time, Dugu Bo did not refuse as he did in the original work. Instead, he gave a seemingly nonsensical response.

"The children are very cute. I will often bring Yanyan to play. I apologize for bothering you, senior."

"Ah."

Golden Crocodile Douluo wore a smile.

After the coronation ceremony, all the usual routines followed, and the grand ceremony finally came to an end late at night.

It was only at this point that Ling Feng had the opportunity to get in touch with Dugu Bo.

"Uncle Qian, may I have a private word with Grandpa Dugu?"

At the dinner table, Ling Feng asked.

Dugu Bo had a good impression of this clever and intelligent child, and since he was close to him, he simply turned his head to the side.

Ling Feng pretended to be an innocent child and whispered in his ear.

"Grandpa Dugu, my martial spirit can sense that something is wrong with your martial spirit. It seems to be poisoned."

"Wait, it seems you've been poisoned too. Remember to get detoxified as soon as possible."

Ling Feng's two sentences would neither embarrass Dugu Bo nor make him wary of him.

Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo was struck dumb.

"How did this child know? This is my biggest secret, even Yan Yan doesn't know it."

"His martial spirit told him that, so how terrifying must this child's martial spirit be?"

"Since he figured it out, does that mean there's a way to detoxify him?"

A series of three questions immediately focused Dugu Bo's attention entirely on Ling Feng.

"Your Holiness, if I may ask, what is the martial spirit of this child Ling Feng?"

"Oh, Xiao Feng, it's the Panlong Staff passed down through the ancient family, but he inherited his father's Dark Panlong Staff, with innate soul power at level nine."

"By the way, he is deeply loved by several of the temple's patrons, and his future achievements are immeasurable."

Qian Xunji told Dugu Bo about the martial soul and innate soul power as previously agreed.

Ling Feng, Qian Renxue, and Jin Chen—the three of them had their soul power levels personally shielded by Qian Daoliu, so Dugu Bo couldn't detect their true strength.

"Oh? He truly is a genius among geniuses."

Dugu Boren was a shrewd and experienced man, so he naturally knew that Qian Xunji had not told him the truth.

It seems it's time to find a private opportunity to talk to this child.

If he were to find a way to alleviate or even detoxify the poison, it would be entirely beneficial to him.

Dugu Bo ate the dinner in a sullen mood.

He didn't find a chance to be alone with Ling Feng until the end of the event.

When Ling Feng got home, it was already late at night. Instead of going to sleep, he pretended to need to urinate and peed in the yard.

Because it was inside the courtyard of the Qian Gu family, Tuoba Yunhai did not enter.

In other words, if Dugu Bo dares to follow, he will have the opportunity to be alone with Ling Feng.

Sure enough, just as Ling Feng was about to pull down his pants with his little hands, he heard a voice.

"Young Master Ling Feng, I am Dugu Bo. I am here late at night. I hope you will not be offended."

"What do you mean by what you said at the banquet just now, that my martial spirit was poisoned?"

Ling Feng raised an eyebrow; he'd taken the bait!

P.S.: Please vote for me, my darlings.

Chapter 21 The Antidote, Dugu Yan

"So it's His Majesty the Poison Douluo visiting late at night. May I ask what brings you here?"

"Young Master Ling Feng is joking. It's just that... what did you mean when you said at the banquet that my martial soul was poisoned?"

Dugu Bo was still quite polite in his speech, after all, no matter how unruly he was, he was in the wrong now.

Moreover, this is not a place where he can run wild, as long as he dares to reveal even the slightest fluctuation of his soul power.

I reckon even without the old man from the Hall of Offerings making a move, that genius junior, Qian Gu Xiao Ye, would fight me to the death with his Panlong Staff.

If I fight with all my might, I might not be able to beat him.

After all, Qian Gu Xiao Ye had made a name for himself on the continent when he was young, but he stopped traveling around the continent after getting married.

"To be honest, I have indeed sensed some changes in my martial soul. I wonder if Young Master Ling Feng could point them out?"

Lonely Bo still didn't have the nerve to admit that he had been poisoned for many years.

"Senior Dugu, you're not being honest!"

"My martial spirit tells me that you have been poisoned for at least 50 years."

"Moreover, this toxin is present in conjunction with the innate awakening of martial soul. Perhaps your son and your granddaughter also have this toxin, and they were born with it from the womb."

"Then, if I may venture another guess, is it because your wife passed away a long time ago, and is it related to what you said earlier about your son and daughter-in-law both dying?"

"Does your granddaughter also have any unusual changes, such as abnormal pupil color and hair color?"

Generally speaking, children on the Douluo Continent do not experience significant changes in their pupils and hair color before they awaken their soul power.

Even some less powerful martial souls, as long as they don't possess a body, are no different from ordinary people.

Those who are born with other eye or hair colors, such as Qian Renxue's golden hair and golden eyes, and Jin Chen's golden hair, are all due to their martial souls being too powerful.

Dugu Bo's expression changed drastically; the knowledge of this junior far exceeded his expectations.

No one on the mainland knew about his wife's death, not even his closest friends of many years.

After all, his wife had already passed away before Dugu Bo had made a name for himself in the world of Soul Masters.

Dugu Bo sighed deeply, knowing full well that he had failed here today.

"Young Master Ling Feng, please don't keep me in suspense."

"As long as you have a way to cure the toxins in my and Yan Yan's martial souls, I will certainly not let you down."

Although Dugu Bo did not bow his head, indicating that he would directly join the Spirit Hall, it was clear that he already meant it.

"Congratulations, Senior Dugu, you have made a wise choice."

"Grandpa, Grandpa, you two heard it too, so go back and rest. You're getting on in years, you should get plenty of rest."

Ling Feng said something to a corner not far away, and immediately two middle-aged men who looked almost identical came out.

It was none other than Qianjun Douluo and Jiangmo Douluo.

How could a mere newly promoted Title Douluo satisfy the divine senses of the two of them?

"Yes, Xiaofeng is getting better and better."

Qianjun Douluo and Jiangmo Douluo ignored Dugu Bo and left on their own.

Dugu Bo stood there, his forehead already beaded with cold sweat.

He made the right bet.

If he had dared to show even the slightest dissatisfaction or killing intent just now, these two senior figures who have been famous in the world of soul masters for a long time would probably have killed him on the spot.
