I don't need it for now

Not long after, Chrysanthemum Douluo returned with two herbs, including those for Li Pu and Bibi Dong.

"Here are two herbs. One can neutralize all toxins within the body, leaving only the ability to use ordinary poisons, while the other allows the body to adapt to toxins, preventing any further backlash. How you distribute these to your son and granddaughter is your business."

Seeing that the poison backlash plaguing his family could be solved by the two herbs before him, Dugu Bo felt as if he were dreaming and slapped himself directly.

"Hey, hey, hey, you aren't dreaming, no need for that."

Li Pu and his group burst into laughter.

"Bring your son and granddaughter over; let me have a look at them."

"Very well."

Dugu Bo's figure vanished instantly, appearing before Li Pu and the others, wishing he could move even faster.

"This old thing."

Li Pu chuckled, and Chrysanthemum Douluo produced an immortal-grade herb.

It was an eight-petaled orchid, its petals trembling slightly as if shivering. Its entire body was snow-white and translucent, exuding an air of refined, otherworldly elegance.

"Elder Li, this is the Eight-Petal Immortal Orchid. It is the most gentle yet profound in medicinal properties. While easy to absorb, it takes a long time to take effect. However, its ability to consolidate one's foundation and expel impurities is enough to compensate for your slow cultivation speed as a Food-type Spirit Master. Its effects can even last until you reach level seventy."

Li Pu shook his head, his eyes fixed on Chrysanthemum Douluo: "I have no need to consume it for now."

Chrysanthemum Douluo understood Li Pu's meaning, knowing full well that the Pope, Qian Xunji, intended to move against Li Pu, though he did not know when.

"Then, for the Saintess's immortal herb..."

"I don't need the herb most suitable for me. I want one that can promote the fusion of two martial souls, similar to the synchronization rate of a Martial Soul Fusion Skill!" Bibi Dong stated.

"A Martial Soul Fusion Skill? Is that what you intend, Lady Saintess?" Chrysanthemum Douluo asked.

"A self-martial soul fusion!"

Bibi Dong said each word clearly.

"A self-martial soul fusion skill? Of course, one exists."

As the premier expert on flora in Douluo Continent, he naturally knew which immortal herb could facilitate martial soul fusion.

Chrysanthemum Douluo did not realize he had misunderstood, yet the herb he sought was indeed the correct one.

Guangling Douluo also mistakenly assumed Bibi Dong wanted a self-martial soul fusion skill; after all, she possessed two martial souls, so he thought nothing more of it.

Even Li Pu held the same belief, never suspecting that Bibi Dong had other motives.

Guangling Douluo said: "Don't forget to prepare a suitable immortal herb for my Xue'er. It doesn't have to be the best, but at least it should be better than that life-saving one of yours."

Li Pu objected: "The higher the quality of the host's martial soul, the less benefit it gains from heaven-sent treasures. The Six-Winged Angel martial soul is already a god-level martial soul, with extreme attributes in every aspect. Even if she consumes it, the improvement will be marginal; it would be far more effective if used on someone else."

Guangling Douluo didn't care: "So what? Is there anything wrong with adding flowers to a brocade?"

No one would refuse to improve their already excellent self, and at the very least, those close to them hope for them to be even better.

At this moment, Chrysanthemum Douluo suggested: "If the Young Mistress needs it, we could choose some versatile herbs for strengthening the body, like my own Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum. Its effect is to forge a body of indestructible diamond!"

Guangling Douluo laughed: "Look, isn't there something suitable? Perhaps there is something even better. Since there are herbs to promote martial soul fusion, there must be ones to promote affinity with extreme attributes. Extreme attributes require time and physical adaptation, especially when there are three of them!"

It was precisely because the Six-Winged Angel martial soul possessed three extreme attributes—Holy, Light, and Fire—that its cultivation speed was much slower.

God-level martial souls cultivate at the same speed as others; reaching Titled Douluo at level fifty is considered fast.

Chrysanthemum Douluo continued to select other suitable immortal herbs.

Before long, Dugu Bo arrived at the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well's garden, impatient, with his son Dugu Xin and granddaughter Dugu Yan in tow.

"Three Elders, Saintess, I have brought my son and granddaughter."

"Elders? Saintess!"

Dugu Xin and Dugu Yan looked on in confusion. When did their father (grandfather) meet such powerful figures, and how could he invite them into a garden they themselves were forbidden to enter?

"Welcome to the big family of Martial Soul Hall, my precious little princess."

Looking at Dugu Yan, who was still a little girl, Li Pu became interested.

"Join Martial Soul Hall? Father, you joined Martial Soul Hall?" Dugu Xin couldn't believe it. As free spirit masters, they were now joining Martial Soul Hall.

Dugu Bo nodded: "That's right, I have decided to join Martial Soul Hall, and from now on, so will you. Hurry and pay your respects to the Elders and the Saintess."

Facing his formidable father, Dugu Xin dared not resist and could only bring his daughter Dugu Yan to pay respects to Li Pu and the others.

"Greetings to the three Elders, and to you, Lady Saintess."

"No need to be so formal; we are quite kind-hearted."

Li Pu wore a gentle smile.

"That's right, that's right."

Seeing the cute little girl Dugu Yan, Guangling Douluo couldn't help but step forward and pick her up.

"What a cute little girl, how could she be plagued by the Jade Scale Snake Poison?"

Dugu Yan didn't cry or fuss; in her eyes, Guangling Douluo was like an older brother.

"Father, this is..." Dugu Xin was completely bewildered.

"Elder Li, that..."

"I know, I haven't forgotten."

Chrysanthemum Douluo took out the medicinal herbs he had prepared beforehand.

Dugu Bo said, "Give the herbs that clear all toxins to my son; his condition is more severe."

He knew all too well that his son's body was riddled with poison, and he had only a few years left to live at most.

Dugu Xin finally understood everything, tears streaming down his face, "Dad, I can be saved, right? I can be saved."

Dugu Bo couldn't help but wipe away his own tears, "Yes, son, we are saved."

Before Dugu Xin could rejoice for long, he reacted, "These precious herbs should go to my daughter instead; there's no need to waste them on me."

Dugu Yan was only six years old and had no idea what was happening.

The flamboyant Chrysanthemum Douluo chuckled, "Who told you there was only one dose of the antidote? Compared to you, who are already terminally ill, your daughter will receive something even better."

He then produced a purple medicinal herb, "This is the Purple Poison Dragon Agave. It allows the body to develop an affinity for toxins, ensuring you will never again fear the backlash of the Jade Scale Snake Poison, and it can even improve your talent."

This situation was similar to Ma Hongjun absorbing the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower.

The only difference was that one was for purification, while the other was for physical affinity.

Only then did Dugu Xin set his heart at ease; he no longer had to fear, and he could finally continue to live.

"Although this immortal herb is gentle, Dugu Yan is still young and will require your assistance to absorb it, so that none of the medicinal effects are wasted," Li Pu reminded him.
