Hearing this, Dugu Bo was slightly stunned. The child had not said a word since entering, and these sudden words caught him off guard.

Kong had no choice either. If he did not let Yu Yuanzhen act as the "mouth of a god" and an "external mouthpiece," how could they have persuaded Dugu Bo so easily?

"Kong, what do you mean yours or mine? Vice Sect Master Dugu's is Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's, isn't it?"

Yu Yuanzhen bent down, patted Kong on the shoulder, and corrected him.

Kong and Dugu Bo: "..."

This old fellow had no Martial Morality at all!

Dugu Bo's pupils suddenly contracted, and the way he looked at Kong changed completely!

What kind of monster was this?

Subconsciously, he placed a hand on Kong's shoulder and sent a wisp of Soul Power into him.

The next moment, Dugu Bo froze in place.

"Six years old? Impossible. How could that be possible?!"

Dugu Bo muttered to himself as though he had gone stupid.

As if he had thought of something, Dugu Bo's eyes lit up. Just as he was about to say something, a bolt of Purple Thunder descended from the sky and struck him squarely on the head.

"How dare you! This body belongs to..."

The voice seemed to glitch there, with no further words.

Yu Yuanzhen and Kong did not hear those words. Only Dugu Bo, who had been struck by lightning, heard them.

Kong and Yu Yuanzhen blinked. Yu Yuanzhen had originally planned to use this incident to force Dugu Bo to truly join the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. After all, only one of their own could be trusted.

Was Kong's information something just anyone could know?

But before he could speak, the man had been struck by lightning.

Yu Yuanzhen could not have been more familiar with that purple lightning.

He looked at Dugu Bo, then at Kong.

Yu Yuanzhen let out a breath of relief. It seemed that being acknowledged him. Otherwise, Kong would not have landed directly in his arms back then.

With that thought, Yu Yuanzhen stood tall and proud, completely at ease.

Dugu Bo exhaled a puff of white smoke. The lightning strike had been neither especially powerful nor particularly weak. He was not injured, but he was utterly shaken!

That majestic voice left Dugu Bo unable to recover for a long while.

"A Godly Expert! Absolutely a Godly Expert!"

He had merely checked Kong's Bone Age and been struck by lightning.

If he had harbored even the slightest ill intent, would he not have been blasted into dust?

"Vice Sect Master, let's go. The sooner we resolve this Martial Soul Poison, the better it will be for you as well."

"Yes, Sect Master."

Dugu Bo accepted his position as Vice Sect Master of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan!

What poison? They should have just said so! If they had told him sooner, would he, Dugu Bo, not have willingly joined the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan?

At that moment, the way Dugu Bo looked at Kong changed again and again.

Kong had not recovered from the shock yet. Had that Purple Thunder been released by the general's Wife-sama?

He had felt half his Soul Power being drained before the lightning appeared.

If he had released it himself, that amount of Soul Power would probably not even have been enough to make Dugu Bo exhale a puff of white smoke.

But if Wife-sama had released it, the nature of the conversion would be different. It was not impossible for it to leave Dugu Bo in such a disheveled state.

Thinking this, Kong came back to his senses and stopped dwelling on it. Wife-sama must have had her reasons for releasing that lightning.

Thus, the three of them, each harboring their own thoughts, headed toward Sunset Forest.

When they arrived at Sunset Forest, Yu Yuanzhen looked at Kong again and suddenly understood why Kong had insisted on coming to Sunset Forest when obtaining his first soul ring!

Kong had wanted to get ahead of the game and claim some benefits early!

Having lived to his age and cultivated to Level 96, how could Yu Yuanzhen possibly be a fool? He understood it instantly.

It was merely that their luck had been poor last time, and they had not found that Treasure Land.

Before long, the three arrived before a poisonous formation. As if recalling something, Dugu Bo hurriedly took out two black pills and handed them to Kong and Yu Yuanzhen. "After discovering this place, I set up this poisonous formation to keep ignorant Soul Masters and soul beasts from damaging it."

"Sect Master, Young Sect Master, these are Antidote Pills. They can counter the poison in this toxic mist."

After taking the Antidote Pill, Yu Yuanzhen hesitated briefly and thought it over before swallowing it.

He was not afraid of Dugu Bo playing tricks. Even if it were a poison pill, he could kill Dugu Bo before the poison took effect!

That was Yu Yuanzhen's confidence.

Kong did not hesitate and swallowed it directly. He understood Dugu Bo's character.

Although Dugu Bo had an eccentric personality, once he set his mind on something, it was difficult to make him change it.

Now that he had "willingly" joined the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, how could he possibly play tricks?

Seeing Kong swallow the Antidote Pill without the slightest hesitation, Dugu Bo felt somewhat touched. He knew his own reputation.

Even though Prince Xue Xing had shown him kindness, Prince Xue Xing would not have dared to consume one of Dugu Bo's pills so directly.

Dugu Bo simply did not speak of such matters. He understood them as clearly as a mirror.

Yu Yuanzhen carried Kong, and before long, he and Dugu Bo reached the mountaintop. Looking down, the full sight of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well appeared before the three of them.

Yu Yuanzhen was immediately stunned. Such an environment did not exist even in dreams.

Kong stared blankly at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well as well. Crystals of ice and fire elements lay everywhere, and that alone was astonishing enough. The gleam emitted by the flowers and grasses left Kong dazed.

How could such a sight exist in his original world?

A short while later, the three reached the edge of the spring waters of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

"This is the Treasure Land I discovered. It can make plants grow rapidly. Besides that, it can suppress the toxins within my body. I do not know anything more."

Dugu Bo spoke sincerely.

"Vice Sect Master, there's a question I've really wanted to ask."

Kong's face was full of conflict as he spoke to Dugu Bo.

"What question does Young Sect Master have? This old man will tell you everything he knows!"

Without even thinking, Dugu Bo answered directly.

Following this one had far more prospects than following Yu Yuanzhen!

Hearing this, Kong pointed at a chrysanthemum beside him and said to Dugu Bo, "Vice Sect Master, you may not recognize the other flowers and plants, but you should be more familiar with this Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum than anyone else, right?"

As the saying went, the person who understood you best was surely your enemy.

Chrysanthemum Douluo's Martial Soul was the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum. As his enemy, how could Dugu Bo not recognize it?

"Young Sect Master, of course I recognize this Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum. But does it have some use?"

Dugu Bo frowned, not quite understanding why Kong had said that.

He remembered Chrysanthemum Douluo cultivating the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum until it was sharper than blades and swords. Yet it was still only a flower. What use could it have?

Kong: "..."

Fine, Dugu Bo truly did not understand. If this place had been discovered by Chrysanthemum Douluo Ju Yueguan, he would probably have gone mad!
