A Good Seed for Cross-dressing

The sudden appearance of the three individuals pushed Chrysanthemum Douluo's vigilance to its peak.

After all, as a Title Douluo, his combat experience was certainly not lacking.

Chrysanthemum Douluo's gaze swept over the three of them with a chilling intensity.

One was a stranger, a handsome young master whose appearance was perfectly to his taste.

One was a flawless woman in a white dress, looking like a goddess of ice and snow.

And there was a green figure that seemed completely out of place with the other two.

This was...

"Old Poison?"

When his eyes landed on Dugu Bo, Chrysanthemum Douluo recognized the fellow with whom they had once had unpleasant dealings, and the name slipped out before he could stop it.

"Yo, Chrysanthemum Guan, long time no see."

Dugu Bo greeted him with a mocking tone.

This made Chrysanthemum Douluo, Yue Guan, twitch with rage.

The thing he hated most in this life was being called by the name Chrysanthemum Guan!

If it had been Dugu Bo alone, Chrysanthemum Douluo would have certainly attacked to teach him a lesson.

Although his transcendent status in Martial Soul Hall relied heavily on his Martial Soul Fusion Skill with Ghost Douluo.

His own strength was not considered outstanding among Title Douluos.

But he was still stronger than Dugu Bo, who was at the very bottom of the Title Douluo rankings.

In a one-on-one fight, Chrysanthemum Douluo had never feared this Old Poison.

However, the guy's attitude right now was clearly off.

He was accompanied by two people he had never seen before.

The handsome young master was fine.

He was only at the Soul Elder level, and even if there was something strange about him, he was not enough to pose a threat to a Title Douluo like himself.

What concerned Chrysanthemum Douluo was the woman in the white dress, Snow Emperor.

He could not see through this woman's background at all.

He could only sense a feeling of fatal danger emanating from her.

It was a sensation that even Lingyuan Douluo, the female Title Douluo of their Martial Soul Hall, had never made him feel.

Only Pope Bibi Dong had ever given him such a feeling...

And even she seemed to fall short compared to the woman before him.

So...

This mysterious woman in the white dress was very likely a top-tier powerhouse whose strength surpassed even their Pope Bibi Dong!

This was exactly what Chrysanthemum Douluo feared.

A Dugu Bo was nothing, but if you added a top-tier powerhouse stronger than Pope Bibi Dong, then things would be troublesome.

If he wasn't careful, he might truly lose his life here today.

Yet, Chrysanthemum Douluo was puzzled.

How could an Old Poison like Dugu Bo possibly find such a top-tier powerhouse who had never appeared on the continent before?

Indeed.

In Chrysanthemum Douluo's mind.

Snow Emperor was a helper Dugu Bo had brought along.

All for the sake of taking revenge for the friction between them in the past.

Noticing the fear in the depths of Chrysanthemum Douluo's eyes, Dugu Bo sneered and mocked:

"Chrysanthemum Guan, so many years have passed, and you're still such a coward."

"It really does suit your sissy behavior."

Although he couldn't make a move immediately due to Yu Shuangbai's intentions.

That didn't stop Dugu Bo from mocking Chrysanthemum Douluo a few times to get back at him for their past grievances.

"Who are you calling a sissy?!"

Chrysanthemum Douluo bristled like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.

His sharp voice was somewhat grating to the ears.

He glared viciously at Dugu Bo, his eyes turning blood-red.

If not for his fear of the mysterious powerhouse Snow Emperor, Chrysanthemum Douluo would have already used his Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum to make this Old Poison pay for his mockery!

"Alright, Senior Dugu."

Yu Shuangbai spoke up to stop Dugu Bo from continuing his mockery of Chrysanthemum Douluo.

Regarding Yu Shuangbai, his savior, Dugu Bo also set aside his usual unruly nature.

After casting a cold snort toward Chrysanthemum Douluo, he retreated behind him.

Seeing this, Chrysanthemum Douluo's pupils widened slightly, as if he had witnessed something truly inconceivable.

This unruly old Poison Master would actually listen to a mere Soul Elder?!

As former rivals.

Chrysanthemum Douluo knew Dugu Bo's personality all too well.

Back then, even when their Martial Soul Hall had used both threats and inducements to try and make him join as an elder, he had stubbornly refused.

His temper was foul, certainly, but Chrysanthemum Douluo still acknowledged that streak of backbone.

He never imagined that this old Poison Master would be so respectful toward a young Soul Elder.

Moreover, that mysterious woman in white had no intention of speaking either.

It seemed she, too, took this young Soul Elder as her leader.

This made Chrysanthemum Douluo inevitably curious about Yu Shuangbai's identity.

Even Hu Liena, the Saintess of their Martial Soul Hall, could never command such treatment from Title Douluo elders like them.

"Kid, who are you?"

Chrysanthemum Douluo narrowed his eyes, observing Yu Shuangbai.

He wanted to see if there was anything miraculous about him.

But after a thorough observation, he gained nothing at all.

He only reached one conclusion:

This kid is truly beautiful; if he were to dress up, he would absolutely be a city-toppling beauty—a perfect candidate for women's clothing!

It was fortunate that Yu Shuangbai did not know what was going through Chrysanthemum Douluo's mind.

Otherwise, he would likely have abandoned the idea of a trade entirely.

He would have simply let Dugu Bo and Snow Emperor bully them with their superior strength and force them into submission.

A gentle smile appeared on his handsome face.

He placed one hand lightly over his chest and performed a gentleman's bow.

"I have long admired your reputation, Senior Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan."

"This junior, Yu Shuangbai, has come uninvited this time because I wish to make a trade with you, Senior."

Yu Shuangbai's smile was as gentle as flowing water, his temperament elegant, naturally evoking a sense of goodwill in others.

Chrysanthemum Douluo was, by nature, a lover of beauty.

His tone softened involuntarily:

"Oh?"

"What kind of trade?"

Yu Shuangbai said softly, "I have heard that Chrysanthemum Douluo is a famous enthusiast of flowers and plants on this continent."

"You have studied all kinds of rare and exotic herbs; I wonder if this is true?"

"That goes without saying!" Chrysanthemum Douluo lifted his chin with considerable pride.

More than his cultivation as a Title Douluo, he took pride in his research into these rare and exotic herbs.

Across this entire continent, if he claimed to be second, no one dared to claim to be first in this field.

It was just a pity that almost no one on the continent cared about this.

Pope Bibi Dong even rebuked him for wasting his efforts on useless things.

This left Chrysanthemum Douluo feeling very frustrated.

He felt that true kindred spirits were hard to find.

"I do not boast, but my attainments regarding these rare flowers and herbs are unrivaled across the entire continent!"

Hearing this, Yu Shuangbai continued.

"That is the very trade I wish to make with you, Senior Chrysanthemum Douluo."

"I require all the data you possess regarding these rare and exotic herbs."

"Oh?" Chrysanthemum Douluo was somewhat surprised.

He had not expected that this would be the purpose of Yu Shuangbai's trade.

After all, there were not many on this continent interested in these rare flowers and herbs.

"These are my life's work; what could you possibly offer to trade for them?"

Chrysanthemum Douluo asked.

Yu Shuangbai's hand flashed with white light, and a large flower appeared in his palm.

Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan's pupils constricted sharply, and his breathing grew rapid.

Yu Shuangbai's calm voice followed.

"This is..."

"The Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum."
