Dugu Bo was furious at this moment, the air pressure around him terrifyingly low.
To him, his precious granddaughter was everything; even his own life was not as important as her.
Daring to make his precious granddaughter cry was even more heinous than dancing on his Family’s grave; it was practically seeking death.
“Yan Yan, tell me, what exactly happened?”
“Don’t be afraid, tell Grandfather.
No matter who the other party is, even if it’s a Titled Douluo, Grandfather will get justice for you.”
Dugu Bo spoke with great confidence.
Among the Titled Douluo currently known on the continent, apart from himself, none were lone wolves.
Having power and a Family was a weakness in his eyes.
He might not be able to defeat every Titled Douluo, but he could ensure that a Titled Douluo would be all the other party had left.
Just ask yourself if you’re afraid?
Hearing her grandfather’s concern, Dugu Yan’s emotions eased slightly.
She wiped her tears and shook her head slightly, saying, “It’s not that, no one bullied me.”
“Then why are you…” Dugu Bo was confused.
Dugu Yan pondered for a moment, carefully choosing her words, and looked at her grandfather with a serious expression: “Grandfather, our Spirit has a defect, the toxins will harm us, right?”
Dugu Bo was stunned upon hearing this.
He never expected his precious granddaughter to ask this, and blurted out: “Yan Yan, how did you kn…”
Realizing he had let it slip, he quickly stopped.
But seeing his precious granddaughter’s “You still want to lie to me” expression, he sighed softly and continued:
“That’s right, our Family’s Spirit indeed has this defect.
Your father and mother were the reason why back then…”
Speaking of this, Dugu Bo’s old face was filled with sorrow.
Clearly, this matter had dealt him a huge blow, one he could never forget.
“Yan Yan, how exactly did you find out?”
Adjusting his emotions, Dugu Bo looked at his precious granddaughter and asked with a frown.
He had never mentioned this to anyone, and usually didn’t show any abnormalities.
How did Yan Yan find out?
Did someone say something to her?
A flash of hidden killing intent appeared in the depths of Dugu Bo’s eyes; his Family’s secrets must never be known by others.
“I…”
Dugu Yan was about to speak, but suddenly remembered that the diary’s content could not be revealed to outsiders, and she found herself at a loss for words.
Ye Lingling was the same as her, possessing a copy of the diary, so it didn’t matter if they talked between themselves.
But if she dared to ignore the warning and insisted on telling outsiders, she would be erased by the diary.
She had finally seen hope; she didn’t want to court death by challenging the authenticity of the rules.
“Uh…
Oh, just don’t worry about how I know.”
“Anyway, I just know, and I also know there is someone who can save us.”
“Oh?” Dugu Bo raised an eyebrow.
His first reaction to these words was disbelief.
He had played with poison his whole life and had no solution, so how could an outsider?
However, disbelief was one thing, but listening wouldn’t hurt.
And if his guess was right, Yan Yan knowing about this must have been told by the person she mentioned.
If that was the case, then he needed to learn more.
Knowing their Family secret and revealing it to Yan Yan to let him know—the motive was likely impure.
“To have such ability, who is it?”
Dugu Yan didn’t notice the strangeness in her grandfather’s eyes.
After a slight pause to organize her words, she said:
“It’s a student who just joined the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy yesterday.
He was brought by the Crown Prince.”
“He is also very young and very strong.
Yesterday, he suppressed Yu Tianheng with just a casual move.”
“I heard he might be a descendant of a Hidden Family, with extraordinary talent, strength, and even methods.”
To add credibility to her words, Dugu Yan specifically gave Su Ye the identity of a descendant of a Hidden Family.
There were some powerful, long-standing Hidden Families on the continent; this was no secret.
Anyway, no one knew the specific situation, so she would just bluff.
Sure enough, hearing that it was the Crown Prince and a descendant of a Hidden Family, Dugu Bo became slightly serious, even brainstorming the cause and effect in his mind.
In his view, there were only two possibilities for this matter.
Either the Crown Prince somehow learned about his situation and specifically found someone to detoxify him in order to recruit him.
Or, his own little darling had taken a fancy to some brat from who knows where and was saying these things specifically to make him accept the other party.
Of course, it couldn’t be ruled out that the other party might really have some methods.
If that was the case, then it was really worth going to see.
Regardless of which possibility it was, it wasn’t a bad thing.
The former needed no explanation; if he could really detoxify, even if he had to worry about the relationship with Prince Xue Xing, he would have to accept this goodwill.
He didn’t care, but Yan Yan was still young, and he didn’t want to experience a white-haired person sending off a black-haired person again.
As for the latter…
In case he passed away one day, Yan Yan would at least have someone to take care of her.
So, although he felt very unhappy about his little cabbage being arched, finding a good home was still necessary.
“Oh, I see.
Then take Grandfather to meet him.
If he can really cure us, it doesn’t matter what price we have to pay.”
Seeing that her grandfather didn’t delve into other things, Dugu Yan breathed a sigh of relief, then pulled his arm and hurried outside.
“Then let’s go quickly, Grandfather.”
“Hey…”
Ye Lingling watched the grandfather and granddaughter walking away, her head full of black lines.
No, let’s just say, why did you drag me along?
As a support, it’s very tiring for me to run back and forth with you, okay?
Fortunately, Dugu Yan hadn’t really forgotten her good friend, and the two returned quickly.
With a Titled Douluo like Dugu Bo leading the way, the speed was naturally incomparable to before.
Before long, the three arrived at the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy.
Like Dugu Yan, Su Ye was now a celebrity in the academy.
Without intentionally hiding, his whereabouts were not difficult to find.
After eating a luxurious breakfast, Su Ye returned to his residence to continue to Cultivate.
For him, the so-called simulated cultivation grounds in the academy were useless; it was the same wherever he cultivated.
At this moment, Su Ye was in his room comprehending the “Void Scripture”, frantically absorbing the knowledge within, when suddenly, the door was gently knocked.
“Dong!
Dong!”
Su Ye opened his eyes and said to himself: It’s here!
He got up to open the door, and sure enough, standing outside were Dugu Yan, Ye Lingling, and an old man he had never seen before but with obvious characteristics.
Clearly, this was the Immortal Herb administrator who, to some extent, could rival Brother Tao in various fan fictions.
Poison Douluo — Dugu Bo!
“Eh?
Are you two done?”
A perfectly appropriate surprise appeared on Su Ye’s face.
At the same time, while speaking, he made a gesture of invitation to the three.
As a super Genius personally brought by Crown Prince Xue Qinghe, Su Ye’s treatment naturally went without saying; his residence was extremely luxurious.
Not to mention three people, it would be more than enough for thirty.
After they entered the living room and sat down, Su Ye exchanged a few casual pleasantries with the two girls, and only then did he turn his gaze to Dugu Bo, who hadn’t spoken from start to finish and whose eyes carried a trace of scrutiny.
