Tiny Dragon Horns, Quite Cute

"Kid Jiang, the soul power of you and your disciple..."

Dugu Bo found himself at a loss for words to describe his current state of mind.

Good heavens, how long had he been gone? He didn't know why that blue-haired brat had changed so much, but how had his soul power increased by such a margin?

As for Tang San's changes, he felt he could actually accept them.

If a low-level soul master consumed some heaven-sent treasure, it was indeed possible to have such a massive leap in a short period.

Although he didn't know the specific effects of the herbs in his peculiar medicinal garden, he knew that every single stalk possessed unique and miraculous properties.

But what about Jiang Li?

Before he left to find Dugu Yan, he had only been at the level of a Soul Saint, and now he was a Soul Douluo?

Taking his own experience as an example, the time it took him to advance from Soul Saint to Soul Douluo was measured in decades.

"No need to feel puzzled, Old Poison. The effects of the herbs here are even better than I predicted."

"Once your granddaughter consumes the corresponding herbs later, the changes she undergoes might be even greater."

Hearing Jiang Li say this, Dugu Bo temporarily suppressed the curiosity in his heart.

As for his medicinal garden looking like it had been chewed on by dogs thanks to the master and disciple, he couldn't care less!

Just as he had said before, as long as he could save his granddaughter's life, he, the Poison Douluo who made the world tremble, was willing to do anything!

Standing to the side, Dugu Yan curiously stared at the young man who was chatting so happily with her grandfather.

As the granddaughter of the Poison Douluo, even having lived in Heaven Dou City, where nobles gathered, for so long, she had never seen anyone who could converse so congenially with her grandfather.

And what surprised her even more was that the other party actually possessed the cultivation of a Soul Douluo!?

Actually, that alone might be fine; as the granddaughter of a Title Douluo, she naturally knew that experts could use their profound soul power to maintain a youthful appearance.

But the six or seven-year-old brat beside him actually had the cultivation of a Soul Grand Master??

Dugu Yan looked down at her toes, then looked up at Jiang Li and the obediently standing Tang San beside him...

A sense of absurdity arose in her heart.

Had she been cultivating in vain all these years?

"Yan-yan, why are you still standing there? Hurry up and greet your Uncle Jiang."

Dugu Bo's words instantly stopped Dugu Yan's wild thoughts.

Even so, the senior opposite her was simply too young, and her lips twitched a few times, unable to speak.

"Hahahaha—"

"Alright, Old Poison, don't make things difficult for my niece. Let's help her resolve the issue with her martial soul first."

Jiang Li climbed right up the social ladder.

Dugu Yan, hearing Jiang Li's shameless words and seeing him solidify his status as her uncle, looked up and glared fiercely at him.

Damn it, how can this person be like this?!!

Soon, under the guidance of Jiang Li and Tang San, Dugu Yan slowly consumed the two Earth Dragon Golden Melons.

In an instant, the heaven and earth energy drifting near the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well surged madly into her body.

Behind Dugu Yan, the phantom of the Jade Phosphorous Serpent began its own evolution.

The originally emerald-green scales on the snake's body began to grow more lustrous, gradually transforming into dragon scales.

Her hands involuntarily transformed into dragon claws, unique to the dragon-fied state of the Blue Lightning Overlord Dragon clan; as Dugu Yan clenched them slightly, they seemed to possess the strength of a thousand catties.

However, Dugu Yan's changes had not yet stopped.

As her body continuously absorbed the surrounding heaven and earth energy, a portion of the two energies dissipated by the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings also entered Dugu Yan's body.

A pair of dragon horns with a red and blue gradient appeared on her forehead.

Hmm...

A tiny pair, quite cute.

As the absorption reached its end, an unfamiliar dragon might emanated from Dugu Yan's body!

Hum—

Under the influence of the two immortal herbs and the unique environment of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, Dugu Yan's final martial soul evolved into a giant dragon, primarily yellow-green with red and blue accents.

The Jade Phosphorous Serpent poison that had accumulated in her body vanished entirely during the evolution of her martial soul.

Through the medicinal power of the immortal herbs and the influence of her martial soul's transformation, Dugu Yan's soul power reached the threshold of level 30; she only needed to absorb a suitable soul ring for the remaining increased soul power to fully manifest.

"Eh? Grandfather, that uncomfortable feeling in my body has completely disappeared!"

"And now, I feel like I'm terrifyingly strong!"

Dugu Yan, like a child who had just received a beloved toy, happily shared her new martial soul with Dugu Bo!

Seeing his precious granddaughter like this, Dugu Bo was so excited he could barely contain himself!

The curse that had plagued their Jade Phosphorous Serpent lineage had finally met its end in this generation!

"Kid Jiang, thank you."

"Old Poison, I can only say your granddaughter's fortune has arrived."

Jiang Li chuckled and shook his head, saying in a joking tone, "However, since your granddaughter's martial soul has completed its transformation into a dragon, I'm afraid she will have to switch to the power attack path in the future."

"It seems your poison arts are destined to be lost."

Facing Jiang Li's teasing, Dugu Bo didn't mind at all.

Just thinking about his precious granddaughter's martial soul transforming into a dragon, and how heroic she would look after becoming a powerhouse in the future...

Then thinking about his granddaughter playing with poison just like him...

Dugu Bo reached into his storage Soul Tool, and a small booklet was tossed into Tang San's hands.

"Kid, I see you have some talent in the way of poison. These are the insights I've gathered over my lifetime, and today, I pass them on to you."

Tang San: Who am I? Where am I?

However, as a former Tang Sect disciple, he had no reason to refuse the insights Dugu Bo had gifted him.

With Jiang Li's silent approval, he excitedly took the booklet and ran to the side to begin studying it.

"Old Poison, you should start absorbing the herbs in your hand as well. I will watch over Dugu Yan as she absorbs the Eight-Petal Immortal Orchid, so she can make up for the physical depletion caused by years of toxin erosion."

"Good."

Dugu Bo began to consume and refine the herb in the same manner Dugu Yan had used for the Earth Dragon Golden Melon...

Time ticked away second by second. Once the medicinal power of the immortal herb had been fully absorbed by Dugu Bo's body, an incredibly powerful pressure belonging to a Title Douluo began to erupt outward.

When he opened his eyes once more, they were filled with visible excitement!

Finally! The Jade Phosphorous Serpent poison that had plagued him for most of his life had finally been completely resolved!
