Dugu Bo

Tang Yin looked at the string of "Thank You for Your Patronage" messages, his face flushing red. "No way, right? My luck was clearly so good before. How did it turn out like this now? Did I use up all my good luck earlier? What use is this God-Tier Cooking anyway? System, did you mess with this?"

Please do not slander this system without cause, Host. I did nothing, and God-Tier Cooking is an essential skill for picking up girls in another world!

"Picking up girls? What do I need that for? Do you think I'm that kind of person?" Tang Yin said disdainfully, then stopped bringing up the skill. (Everyone here is an adult. You know what I mean.)

Host, you still have lottery draws remaining. Would you like to continue?

"Of course." The pointer began spinning rapidly again. After a while, it stopped on a square. "Damn, are you serious? What am I supposed to do with this? Besides, I don't even have a Nichirin Blade."

He had drawn "Complete Breathing Technique (A-rank)."

Host, your current body is far too weak among elves. The Breathing Technique can train your body and help you focus your mind.

"Fine~_~, I can reluctantly accept that. Keep drawing."

"Infinite Nichirin Blade (A-rank)."

"...What does that mean? Are you trying to make me kill demons? But where would Douluo Continent even get demons?" Tang Yin was speechless.

Don't worry, Host. Don't you still have one more chance?

"You have the nerve to say that? What even are these things? Are you messing with me? There's only one chance left. If I don't get something good, I'll definitely smash you." After threatening the system, Tang Yin drew again. This time, he obtained "Martial Soul: Demon Blade Thousand Blades (S-rank)" (with one serving of Killing Intent included).

Congratulations, Host, for obtaining "Complete Breathing Technique (A-rank)." Learn it? Congratulations, Host, for obtaining "Martial Soul: Demon Blade Thousand Blades (S-rank)." Add it? Congratulations, Host, for obtaining "Bonus Gift: One Serving of Killing Intent." Equip it?

"Finally, something decent. Learn it, add it, equip it." In an instant, Tang Yin felt as though he had become a different person. His icy gaze sent chills down one's spine.

"System, open my personal panel." He gave the command in a voice devoid of emotion.

Host: Tang Yin

"Alright. For the next year, I'll be living in Star Dou Great Forest. System, can you change my appearance?" After closing his personal panel, Tang Yin asked the system.

Yes. What would Host like to look like?

"Change me back to how I originally looked first, then save an appearance for Qi." Tang Yin thought for a moment before answering.

Tang Yin's appearance then returned to its original form. He inspected himself with satisfaction, then circulated his spiritual power and darted toward the depths of the forest.

One year later...

"Hey! Don't run! Am I really that scary? Wait for me!" A young boy's voice rang out. Looking over, a ten-thousand-year Cave Demon Spider was frantically fleeing, with a boy sporting waist-length hair and delicate features chasing behind it... Yes, it was Tang Yin. It had to be said that children on Douluo Continent truly matured early. A seven-year-old child had already grown to over 1.6 meters tall. At the moment, he was enjoying his only pastime for tomorrow—chasing Soul Beasts. Relying on an elf's powerful recovery ability and the training of the Breathing Technique, he had grown in just a year to the point where he could casually bully any Soul Beast under fifty thousand years without using "Angel." He had also continuously accumulated experience in the process. Now, he was no longer who he had once been. However, he had never actively killed a single Soul Beast. Now that a year had passed, he could finally leave.

Tang Yin changed into Qi's appearance and walked out of the place where he had lived for a year. Looking back at Star Dou Great Forest, Tang Yin was filled with emotion. When he had first arrived, he had still been a little brat. After this year, even he could hardly believe that he had reached his current level.

He soon emerged from his memories. "System, mark the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well." He rushed forward at high speed. He avoided every city along the way and traveled without stopping. After all, he was an elf—he would not die even if he did not eat. Even under such conditions, it took Tang Yin a month to reach Sunset Forest.

After confirming that no one was around, he flew directly to the side of the poison array and sat down. He was waiting for Dugu Bo. He did not want to take what belonged to someone else, nor did he want to gain something without earning it, so he wanted to help Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan remove their poison.

In the middle of the night, Tang Yin sensed a powerful aura approaching. It was Dugu Bo. However, he did not seem to be in very good shape. Tang Yin remembered—this was when the backlash from his poison was acting up. Dugu Bo landed before Tang Yin and watched him vigilantly as he forced himself to ask, "Who are you? What are you doing here?"

But Tang Yin paid him no mind. He rushed in front of him and grabbed his hand. Dugu Bo wanted to resist, but he was at his weakest right now, while Tang Yin's strength was absurdly great. Tang Yin held him firmly. Tang Yin slowly used spiritual power to nourish Dugu Bo's entire body. A wave of pleasure instantly enveloped Dugu Bo, and he could not help crying out in comfort. "Ah~."

"Hm?" Tang Yin's face darkened. "Hey, hey, don't make it sound so suggestive, alright? Anyone who didn't know better would think I did something to you."

Dugu Bo said awkwardly, "It was just too comfortable. I couldn't hold it back for a moment." He was no longer on guard, because he clearly understood that just then, this child who looked only seven or eight years old could have easily killed him. Though it was embarrassing, a child possessing strength close to that of a Spirit Douluo was inherently abnormal. This child had to be extraordinary.

While Dugu Bo was lost in thought, Tang Yin said, "I'm only helping you alleviate it. I can't completely cure your poison."

"What do you want?" Dugu Bo also understood very well that no one would help him for no reason. If that really happened, he would instead feel uneasy.

"I want the immortal medicinal herbs below. You can't use them anyway, so you might as well give them to me. I need them to detoxify you too." Tang Yin straightforwardly asked for them. He knew Dugu Bo was a blunt man who disliked beating around the bush.

"Good boy. You know there are medicinal herbs down there, so you came prepared. Why should I give them to you?" Dugu Bo asked.

"If you don't give them to me, I won't treat you." Tang Yin threatened him.

"You think you've got me over a barrel? I'm already an old man. I've lived long enough, and I don't even want treatment anymore." Dugu Bo chuckled twice, indicating that he had lived long enough and could not be threatened by Tang Yin.

"You've lived long enough, but what about your granddaughter? She's still young. In a few more years, when the poison backlash strikes, she'll suffer terribly. Besides, since she was eroded by poison while still in her mother's womb, her poison is far stronger than yours. If she cannot cultivate to Titled Douluo before turning twenty, she won't live past twenty."

Dugu Bo fell silent. He could die, but his granddaughter Dugu Yan could not. As for cultivating to Titled Douluo before twenty, he did not even dare think about it. He knew his granddaughter's talent well enough. It was absolutely impossible.

"Since you know all this, why not just take them by force?"

"I don't like owing people things."

"Fine. I'll trust you this once." By then, the nourishment was complete. Dugu Bo stood up, lifted Tang Yin, carried him above the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, and tossed him straight down.
