Dugu Yan Was Stunned

As soon as Wu Xing's words appeared, the Chat Group, which had been clamoring over points and Gold Soul Coins, fell completely silent. Immediately after, everyone's curiosity was fiercely piqued, and they all instantly perked up.

One must know that whether it was the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect backed by Ning Rongrong or the Martial Soul Hall helmed by Bibi Dong, both were top-tier powers on the Douluo Continent with countless wealth and resources. Hearing this, they could no longer contain themselves.

[Ning Rongrong: Who is it? Is it me, Brother Wu Xing? My family is super rich!]

Ning Rongrong was the first to jump out, her tone full of haughtiness, her tail practically wagging in the air.

In her view, her Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was wealthy enough to rival a nation; the richest person surely had to be related to her.

[Bibi Dong: If we are talking about who is the richest, who could possibly compare to this Pope? A mere support sect dares to compare itself to the Martial Soul Hall?]

[Nine-Tailed Sky Fox: Exactly, exactly! The Gold Soul Coins that the Martial Soul Hall distributes to soul masters every month are higher than the total revenue of your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect for half a year.]

Following Ning Rongrong's words, Bibi Dong immediately refused to accept it and jumped out to argue on the spot, lacking even a shred of the composure a Pope should possess.

If it weren't for this little princess bidding against her, how could the points she had in her grasp have flown away?

Moreover, she wasn't wrong; the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was rich, but it still couldn't be mentioned in the same breath as the Martial Soul Hall.

Seeing this, Hu Liena immediately followed up to curry favor, focusing on mindless support, her sycophancy clear for all to see.

Even Bibi Dong, who had heard plenty of flattery, had to sigh that this Nine-Tailed Sky Fox group member was truly a talent worth molding.

However, some group members felt things weren't that simple. Although they hadn't been in the group for long, they had roughly grasped the Group Owner's personality—he was someone who never played by the rules.

[Ning Shui Fei Luan: Group Owner, I'm afraid the answer isn't that simple, is it?]

[Zhu Zhuqing: Based on the Group Owner's style, it's impossible for it to just be the two major powers on the surface.]

[Dugu Yan: Anyway, it's not me. It has nothing to do with me.]

When these questions appeared, Ning Rongrong and Bibi Dong also realized—that's right, how could the Group Owner ask such a giveaway question?

It was just that the two couldn't figure it out: if it wasn't the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and it wasn't the Martial Soul Hall, then who could it be?

Could it be the Sea God Island High Priest?

That was possible. Sea God Island had always been mysterious. Years ago, the Martial Soul Hall had attacked it, only to return in defeat with heavy casualties.

[Bibi Dong: Group Owner, you aren't talking about the Sea God Island High Priest, are you?]

[Sea God Island High Priest: Slander, this is slander! Your Excellency Group Owner, this Pope is clearly slandering my Sea God Island! How could the wealth of a single island compare to an entire continent!]

[Xue Qinghe: ...]

[Blue Silver Empress: ...]

As the Great Priest of Sea God Island, Bo Saixi saw the Pope of the continent's largest power publicly pinning a label on them. She, who was usually steady and calm, unmoved even by great storms, could no longer sit still.

Back then, the Martial Soul Hall had attacked Sea God Island, and she had only managed to drive the invaders away with great difficulty to secure a hard-won peace.

If these words spread and every power on the continent thought Sea God Island was hiding monstrous wealth, and they all came to the island to scavenge, would her Sea God Island ever have a peaceful day again?

Setting aside whether Sea God Island even had that much wealth, even if it did, she could never admit it.

Sure enough, the Martial Soul Hall's desire to destroy us never dies!

Qian Daoliu, you old bastard, you aren't a good person either.

Meanwhile, in the Worship Hall of Martial Soul City, Qian Daoliu, who was sitting cross-legged beneath the statue of the Angel God, felt an inexplicable malice strike him, causing him to shiver all over and slowly open his eyes.

Watching the discussion among the group members and seeing Bo Saixi jump out to desperately explain herself, Wu Xing's stomach ached from laughing, especially when he saw Dugu Yan's comment, which brought tears to the corners of his eyes.

Considering Bo Saixi had sent him photos of her beautiful legs, he decided he should step in to clarify.

[Wu Xing: You all guessed wrong, and you're wildly off the mark!]

[Ning Rongrong: Ah? Brother Wu Xing, it's not the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, not the Martial Soul Hall, and not even Sea God Island. Then who is it?]

[Bibi Dong: Could there be another hidden power? Or perhaps the two great empires?]

[Xiao Wu: Brother Wu Xing, don't keep us in suspense. I feel like my brain is about to grow out.]

[Nine-Tailed Sky Fox: That's right, Group Owner, don't keep us guessing.]

With Wu Xing's words, the group members became even more curious; they truly couldn't think of anyone else besides the three they had already ruled out.

[Wu Xing: This person is far away yet right before your eyes, and is related to our group members.]

[Xue Qinghe: Your Excellency Group Owner, who are you talking about?]

[Zhu Zhuqing: It couldn't be me, could it?]

[Ning Shui Fei Luan: I know my own worth; it couldn't be me either.]

[Dugu Yan: Since you all said that, it definitely won't be me. If it has anything to do with me, I'll livestream myself eating... uh, no, I'll take pajama photos for Brother Group Owner.]

[Wu Xing: Really? Send them over first so I can take a look and check the quality.]

[The Women: ...]

Who was it that was just in the group acting righteous and solemn, saying they wanted to maintain a civilized environment for group chat?

Now you're blatantly engaging in a PY trade, aren't you!

[Wu Xing: Haha, I won't keep you in suspense. The richest person on the Douluo Continent is Dugu Yan's grandfather—Dugu Bo.]

[Dugu Yan: What??? My grandfather???]

[Dugu Yan: Big Brother Group Leader, this joke isn't funny at all. If you wanted my pajama photos, just say so; it's not like I wouldn't send them to you.]

Seeing the Group Leader claim her grandfather was the wealthiest, Dugu Yan was completely stunned, her face filled with disbelief.

How could she not know the situation of her own family and her own grandfather?

She could only say they didn't lack Gold Soul Coins to spend.

[Ning Rongrong: Wow, Dugu Yan, so your grandfather is the richest person on the Douluo Continent! And you were just crying poor a moment ago!]

[Xue Qinghe: I truly never expected that Dugu Bo would be the wealthiest person.]

[Ning Shui Fei Luan: I originally thought we were the same kind of people, but it turns out the clown was me all along.]

[Zhu Zhuqing: Agreed.]

[Nine-Tailed Sky Fox: Agreed +1.]

[Blue Silver Empress: Agreed +2.]

[Dugu Yan: Stop agreeing! Big Brother Wu Xing, hurry and tell me, how is my grandfather the wealthiest person?]

Dugu Yan sat dazed on a stone bench in her small courtyard, racking her brain but unable to understand how her grandfather could be the wealthiest person, even richer than the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect or the Martial Soul Hall.

Could it be that her grandfather had been hiding something from her?

But that shouldn't be! Grandfather doted on her the most; how could he possibly keep secrets from her?

[Wu Xing: Dugu Yan, open the Group Mall and search for Heavenly Treasures; you will understand.]

Seeing this message, not just Dugu Yan, but all the group members subconsciously clicked on the Group Mall and searched the Immortal Herb category.

As the search concluded, immortal herbs with astronomical point prices appeared before their eyes, starting at a minimum of one hundred thousand points.

Upon reading the detailed descriptions of these Heavenly Treasures, everyone gasped in unison, unable to believe that such treasures actually existed on the Douluo Continent.

Dugu Yan, in particular, didn't react at first, but soon she felt as though she had seen these flowers and grasses somewhere before.

A moment later, her eyes widened sharply; she remembered.

Aren't these immortal herbs just those useless but exceptionally beautiful weeds growing in her grandfather's Herb Garden!!!
