Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye, Dugu Bo Suffered the Pain of Poisonous Reversal! (Seeking Follow Reads)

Yue Guan looked at the vast poisonous mist before him and frowned. "Why is there a Poison Array here? And the aura of this poisonous mist feels so familiar. Right! It's that Old Poison's!"

Hu Bai secretly rejoiced. Sunset Forest was quite vast, yet they had found it in only a few hours. Their luck was truly good.

"Uncle Yue, do you have a way to take us through this Poison Array? I feel like there should be something we want inside. Since Senior Dugu Bo went to such lengths to set up a Poison Array here, could his Medicine Garden be behind it?"

Yue Guan was somewhat curious as well. "What kind of Medicine Garden would make Old Poison this cautious?"

Yue Guan felt that something important to Dugu Bo must lie beyond the poisonous mist. Otherwise, there would have been no need for such elaborate measures.

The next moment, Ju Hua Guan released his Martial Soul, the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum. Using Singular Velvet Power, he formed a protective barrier that enveloped all four of them. This was his First Soul Skill, Singular Velvet Body Protection.

However, Ju Hua Guan worried that the defense would not be enough, so he layered on his Second Soul Skill, Singular Velvet Light. These were the only two defensive Soul Skills he possessed.

"Alright, let's go in." Yue Guan smiled faintly.

The moment the two defensive Soul Skills appeared, Hu Bai finally recalled why Ju Hua Guan stood neither high nor low among experts of the same level.

Perhaps Ju Hua Guan had initially intended to follow a defensive path, but later realized that alone, he lacked offensive means. So he still attached offensive Soul Rings to his Martial Soul, which left him less than exceptional among Assault Soul Masters.

If Level 95 Dai Mubai fought Yue Guan, then Yue Guan would undoubtedly lose.

What left the deepest impression on Hu Bai was still Ju Hua Guan's Ninth Soul Skill: Chrysanthemum Withers, the Ground Is Covered in Wounds, Flowers Fall and Hearts Break.

The very name of the Soul Skill revealed how tragic and heroic it was.

More importantly, the strongest Ninth Soul Skill of an assault-type Soul Master was not a single-target attack, but an area attack. That greatly dispersed its power!

Under Yue Guan's lead, Hu Bai released his Third Eye as well, attempting to see through the layers of poisonous mist and make out the scenery within.

Before long, the four of them passed through the poisonous mist and arrived in a valley untouched by it.

What they saw beyond it was a sea of flowers. Stars glittered in Ju Hua Guan's eyes as he exclaimed, "I never expected Old Poison to possess such a fine Treasure Land."

Before Ju Hua Guan could finish speaking, however, he saw a green-haired Elder sitting cross-legged in the center. His expression was extremely pained, and the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor Martial Soul flickered in and out behind him.

Dugu Bo had sensed someone passing through the poisonous mist he had set up. Yet in his current state, he simply could not spare any attention. When he opened his eyes and saw Ju Hua Guan, he did not know why, but he felt slightly relieved.

"Why are you here, Ju Hua Guan?" Dugu Bo endured the agonizing pain in his body as he spoke, his face deathly pale.

"Old Poison, are you poisoned? I never expected it. You, the Poison Douluo renowned throughout the world, are actually suffering backlash from your own Martial Soul. It's a miracle you survived until now. Oh, no, that's not right. Without this place, you probably wouldn't have lived until now, would you?"

With Ju Hua Guan's discerning eye, he could naturally tell why Dugu Bo had been poisoned.

The reason he had failed to see it during their many previous clashes was because Dugu Bo had concealed it well, and it had not flared up then.

"Hmph, why are you gloating? In my current state, kill me or torture me as you please!" Dugu Bo had resigned himself to his fate. But when he thought of his Granddaughter, he spoke again, his voice carrying a trace of pleading. "Ju Hua Guan, for the sake of our many battles, don't touch my Granddaughter. She is my only family left in this world."

"Senior Poison Douluo, since you are so reluctant to part with your Granddaughter, why not find a way to recover quickly?"

At that moment, a voice drew Dugu Bo's attention. It belonged to a handsome child standing beside Ju Hua Guan.

Dugu Bo said coldly, "You are? Do you think I haven't tried? Over the years, I've tried every method imaginable, but none worked. If it weren't for this place, I would have died long ago."

Hu Bai really wanted to say, If you're weak, train more. Just because Dugu Bo could not do it did not mean Spirit Hall could not.

Hu Bai gave Yue Guan a look. Yue Guan immediately understood and said to Dugu Bo, "He is Hu Bai, the new Disciple His Holiness the Pope has taken in. The two beside me are his Dad and Mom, Xie Tian and Hu Leyao. Old Poison, how about joining Spirit Hall? I can report this to those above. Perhaps someone in Spirit Hall can cure your Martial Soul backlash."

But Dugu Bo said, "You want me to join Spirit Hall? Impossible! Does Spirit Hall have someone more skilled in poison than I am? Even if someone is better with poison than me, that does not mean they can solve my problem.

"Besides, Prince Xue Xing once showed me kindness. If I joined your Spirit Hall, what kind of person would that make me?"

Dugu Bo was indeed extremely stubborn in certain matters.

If one called him an upright gentleman, he had once coveted Tang San's External Soul Bone.

But if one called him otherwise, he repaid the kindness of others tenfold, even a hundredfold.

All in all, Dugu Bo could be considered a figure both righteous and wicked. He did as he pleased, yet he also had principles of his own.

Yue Guan said indifferently, "Although I don't know how Prince Xue Xing happened to save your life back then, if I said I could ease your Martial Soul backlash right now, shouldn't you thank me? And how would you repay my kindness?"

Dugu Bo: ???

"I can't even solve this poison myself, and you say you can ease it now?" Dugu Bo looked at Ju Hua Guan with obvious disbelief.

Yue Guan chuckled. "But there is one condition. After I ease it for you, this place will belong to me. How about it?"

"Impossible!" As if someone had touched his lifeline, Dugu Bo immediately retorted, "I discovered this place, and I treasure some of the herbs here!"

Ju Hua Guan narrowed his eyes slightly. He felt that Dugu Bo did not recognize most of the immortal herbs within. Otherwise, how could he still be suffering Martial Soul backlash even now?

At this moment, Hu Bai said, "Then what if I said I could completely cure your illness? Would you give this Treasure Land to me? Of course, in your current state, if we kill you, this Treasure Land will still become ours. But why are we going to such lengths to talk to you? Senior Poison Douluo, you should understand that clearly, shouldn't you?"

"Even if you won't consider yourself, you should consider your Granddaughter. Since you said she is your only remaining family in this world, then your Martial Soul backlash must be hereditary and can affect females as well. In other words, your Granddaughter is also poisoned right now. No one knows when it will flare up. Do you want to watch helplessly as your Granddaughter dies?"
