Hearing this familiar name, Wang Chuan's expression turned slightly peculiar, yet he was now completely certain that this world did not strictly follow the manga version.

It was likely the result of the natural evolution of an infinite plane.

Just like the theory of monkeys typing to write a novel, as long as the world is vast enough and the variables are numerous enough, two similar leaves will always appear.

With this realization, Wang Chuan grew increasingly vigilant about the future.

The original plan to intercept Yu Xiaogang and become Tang San's teacher was completely shelved.

Because Wang Chuan truly could not be certain whether the Tang San of this world was as pure and kind as he appeared in the manga.

However, Wang Chuan did not feel much regret over this; it was only a backup plan anyway. With his current strength and talent, it was not impossible for him to ascend to godhood through his own faith.

Wang Chuan even felt that whether he became a god or not was irrelevant.

Because with his aptitude, reaching at least the demigod level was absolutely no problem, and that would grant him at least a thousand years of lifespan—a duration Wang Chuan didn't even know how he would spend.

Therefore, Wang Chuan now held a more indifferent attitude; he would just take things one step at a time.

As they drew closer to the boudoir of Dugu Xin, the powerful spirit power pressure of Dugu Bo already came rushing toward them.

The servants couldn't even get close, so they could only let Wang Chuan and his companion proceed on their own.

Because Dugu Bo's spirit power was poisonous, Wang Lie very considerately shielded Wang Chuan with his own spirit power to avoid collateral damage.

Yet, even while standing within the spirit power pressure of these two Soul Douluo, Wang Chuan felt that something was strange.

An indescribable sensation began to spread from the depths of his soul, to the point where Wang Chuan felt his own bloodline spirit begin to tremble.

This feeling was just like the sensation Golden Scale had when it found the Spirit Beast it needed.

However, since it was a lady's boudoir after all, Wang Lie did not rashly barge in with Wang Chuan, but instead asked from outside the house.

"Little Poison Snake, how is your niece? Do we need to bring some medicinal herbs over to help?"

Dugu Bo hurriedly and anxiously blocked them.

"Don't come over! The toxin backlash in my girl today is abnormal. I can't handle it for the moment and can only forcibly suppress it. If you come over and interfere with me, all my previous efforts will be wasted!"

Hearing this, Wang Lie hurriedly took Wang Chuan further away until they were outside the range of Dugu Bo's spirit power, seemingly afraid that his own spirit power might affect what was inside.

Dugu Xin's boudoir—

Although it was a Western-style castle, the interior of Dugu Xin's room was decorated in a Chinese style, presenting an overall antique charm.

Dugu Xin's soft, beautiful face was currently as pale as paper, and paired with the unnaturally purplish-blue hue of her cherry lips, she looked like a sickly beauty who had stepped out of a painting.

Time ticked away, and Dugu Bo, who had been high-spirited before, now had an increasingly ugly expression.

There was an unspeakable terror in his eyes!

"It can't be, it can't be! Xin'er, you have to hold on!"

Dugu Bo roared in a low, disbelieving voice.

Watching his daughter on the bed, who was not improving as she usually did but instead beginning to twist in pain while unconscious, Dugu Bo's emotions hit rock bottom, and panic began to spread.

Because this sense of powerlessness reminded him of the woman he had loved so deeply.

The woman who had eventually contracted the Jade Phosphorous Serpent poison during childbirth, a woman he could not save!

"Xin'er! Don't die, please don't die!"

In the end, Dugu Bo's voice was laced with sobs, making the man over fifty years old appear incredibly desolate.

This completely alarmed Wang Chuan and Wang Lie outside.

Wang Lie wanted to go in to check on his old friend's situation, but remembering Dugu Bo's warning from earlier, he took a step forward and then stopped in his tracks.

At this moment, Wang Chuan's eyes flickered.

Just now, Wang Chuan had used his Super Intelligence to conduct a brainstorm.

Since this manga Douluo world had already deviated, why should he care about the plot!?

Moreover, this Dugu Bo was his future recognized shield against trouble.

If he let him accept the original tragedy as it was, wouldn't he have come here for nothing!

Furthermore, regarding this abnormality of the spirit, Wang Chuan surveyed the Douluo world.

Unless it was an absolute rank suppression of spirits that caused such a disturbance, combined with the agitation of Golden Scale, there was only one possibility.

That was that the Dugu Xin inside had a Martial Soul Fusion Skill with him!

In other words, if he could save Dugu Xin inside at this moment, not only would he gain an ally, but he could also max out Dugu Bo's favorability!

He could win twice—a double win!

And so, before Wang Lie could react at all.

Anxious to save her, Wang Chuan entered Dugu Xin's boudoir at a speed that was almost like teleportation.

Wang Lie thought that things were about to go wrong, fearing that Wang Chuan would provoke Dugu Bo, who was in an emotionally unstable state, and get caught in the crossfire.

Unable to worry about anything else, he hurriedly gave chase.

Sure enough, Dugu Bo was in an abysmal mood at this moment; the second he sensed an unknown presence approaching, he backhanded a blast of poisonous spirit power.

Then, before Wang Lie's shocked eyes.

Wang Chuan punched the attack into nothingness, stood his ground, and said in a deep voice.

"Grandpa Dugu, please stop your spirit power. My aunt's problem is likely not a backlash from her Martial Soul poison, but something else entirely."

Dugu Bo was too preoccupied with the chaos Dugu Xin had caused to be shocked by Wang Chuan's strength; he subconsciously stopped his attack and hurriedly asked.

"What problem?"

Wang Chuan stepped forward, released his own spirit power, and spoke as he did so.

"If I'm not mistaken, it should be an issue with a Martial Soul Fusion Skill. I felt an abnormality in my own Martial Soul the moment I approached this place.

That is why your usual method of suppressing the poison with spirit power failed this time, Grandpa Dugu."

Dugu Xin's reaction seemed to confirm Wang Chuan's words.

Upon coming into contact with Wang Chuan's spirit power, the restless poisonous spirit power in Dugu Xin's body acted like a greedy child that had finally gotten what it wanted.

It immediately stopped its commotion and returned to a state of calm.

Furthermore, Dugu Xin's originally haggard and twisted face visibly regained its rosy glow, until the green hue on her cherry lips faded away completely.

Seeing his precious daughter return to normal.

Dugu Bo felt as if all the bones in his body had been drained away; he slumped onto the floor, his eyes filled with the joy of a doting father.

At the same time, Dugu Bo suddenly realized why his usually foolproof spirit power suppression method had suddenly failed, and why the spirit power inside Dugu Xin had been as hard to pin down as a loach—it was all caused by Martial Soul resonance.

Thinking of this, Dugu Bo's gaze toward Wang Chuan, who was still outputting spirit power, gradually became strange.

It was just like it had been back in the Soul Hunting Forest.

As for Wang Chuan punching his spirit power attack into nothingness earlier.

Dugu Bo thought about it but didn't take it to heart.

After all, Wang Lie had bragged to him about how valiant Wang Chuan was, claiming those two Spirit Beasts were hunted by Wang Chuan himself, though he hadn't believed it at the time.

But looking at it now, it seemed he had underestimated Wang Chuan.

Precisely because of this strength, the look in Dugu Bo's eyes as he watched Wang Chuan became increasingly subtle.
