Sincerity Was the Ultimate Weapon! Gaining Dugu Bo's Deep Friendship!

Sincerity Was the Ultimate Weapon! Gaining Dugu Bo's Deep Friendship!

So this was the pressure of a Title Douluo. It really was extraordinary. Feeling the pressure radiating from Dugu Bo, Li Fei thought to himself.

But the next second, the dormant Eastern Azure Dragon within him emitted a faint glimmer, helping him completely ignore that pressure.

Because Dugu Bo's snake had already transformed into a Flood Dragon.

Moreover, it had mutated after being infected by Li Fei's Dragon Breath. In a roundabout way, this meant Li Fei was the father of Dugu Bo's Martial Soul.

The son wanted to pressure his father? Dream on!

When Dugu Bo followed Manager Zhang Tao's pointing hand, his gaze finally landed on the young man watching him from a distance, and his pupils suddenly contracted.

"You?" Dugu Bo frowned.

This fellow was the youth he had directly ignored, and the only third person in the room besides himself and the manager.

Li Fei smiled faintly, without the slightest trace of fear on his face.

When a father met his son, what did I have to fear from you?

He looked at Zhang Tao and said, "Manager Zhang, leave for a moment. I need to speak with Poison Douluo alone."

"O-okay."

Zhang Tao had long wanted to leave.

Facing a Title Douluo was simply too stressful.

"Your Excellency, I..." Zhang Tao did not leave immediately. Instead, he looked at Dugu Bo and sought his approval.

After all, this guy was the biggest shot here! The most badass!

If the other party disagreed, there was no way he could leave.

This kid isn't afraid of me. And why do I feel like he was waiting for me? Dugu Bo narrowed his eyes at Li Fei and muttered inwardly.

Then he nodded. "Go out and close the door."

"Yes, yes." Zhang Tao let out a sigh of relief, quickly left, and shut the door.

A ball of Soul Power appeared in Dugu Bo's hand, enveloping the entire room.

"Poison Douluo, this is quite unexpected, isn't it?"

"I'm not the person you imagined me to be."

Li Fei smiled faintly as he spoke.

"You were waiting for me?" Dugu Bo asked.

"Yes. Today's Universal Antidote Pill was specifically meant to draw you here," Li Fei said.

Dugu Bo was even more puzzled. How had this kid known he was poisoned?

His gaze turned cold. "Aren't you afraid I'll kill you right now?"

"You won't," Li Fei said.

"You're that certain?" Dugu Bo grew even more curious.

"Because I saved you and cured the poison in your body."

"Moreover, I have a Universal Antidote Pill that can cure your granddaughter's poison."

"I didn't come looking for you this time to fight and kill. I wanted to make a friend."

"I saved you and your granddaughter. Could these two favors be exchanged for Dugu Bo's deep friendship?"

Li Fei stated his purpose.

Upon hearing Li Fei's earlier words, Dugu Bo had wanted to make a move. After all, only he knew about the poison afflicting himself and his granddaughter. There was no second person in the world who knew, and he had not even told his own granddaughter the truth.

Yet the person before him knew.

He had thought the other party might have some ill intent, but after hearing the latter words, the hand he had just raised slowly lowered.

"Your Pill was auctioned off by this old man for one million Gold Soul Coins," Dugu Bo said blandly.

"If I hadn't brought out that Pill, do you think one million Gold Soul Coins could have bought it?"

"Besides, I don't lack money. I can return those one million Gold Soul Coins to you at any time."

"After all, my purpose was never money, but your friendship."

Li Fei took out a gold card from his Soul Tool and placed it on the table.

"You're right. It was priceless and unavailable."

"This old man doesn't lack one million Gold Soul Coins either."

"This old man will not take back money once it has been given away."

"You're young, but you've got quite the nerve!"

"You actually dared to lure this old man here alone with such a method. Aren't you afraid that if you lost the gamble, you'd lose your life?"

Dugu Bo sat down. The cold aura around him vanished, and his tone became gentler.

"Anyway, I've only got one worthless life. I might as well gamble. If I lost, at worst you'd turn me into a puddle of blood. But if I won, the Li Family would have a Title Douluo protecting it. It was worth it!" Li Fei said.

"Heh, kid, you suit this old man's tastes."

"Tell me, then. You've never met this old man, so how did you know I was poisoned, and about my granddaughter as well?"

Dugu Bo chuckled after hearing this, finding Li Fei especially interesting. He was completely different from everyone else. Not only was he unafraid of Dugu Bo, but even Dugu Bo's pressure had no effect on him. More importantly, his Jade Scale Dragon Emperor Martial Soul had actually conveyed a hint of fear.

This left him confused and shocked.

Such a thing had never happened before.

Nor had he ever heard of anything like this occurring in the Soul Master world throughout history.

Thus, he was extremely perplexed and wanted to understand it. Otherwise, he would not be at ease.

All of this was connected to the kid before him.

"I once read about the flaws of the Jade Scale Snake Martial Soul in an ancient book. I learned that in ancient times, Soul Masters with this type of Martial Soul had similarly died from the backlash of the poison carried by their Martial Souls. Then I thought that, in this world, only Senior Poison Douluo currently possessed this type of Martial Soul. I tried investigating your family and discovered that its members had all died mysteriously. Now, only you and Dugu Yan remained, depending on each other for survival. So I concluded that you must have suffered the same backlash from your Martial Soul's poison. I boldly refined Universal Antidote Pills and took a gamble, hoping to cure your poison and gain your deep friendship, so you could protect us before I had fully grown stronger."

Li Fei told the story he had long prepared.

Although parts of it were not entirely flawless, that did not matter. Dugu Bo only needed a somewhat reasonable explanation.

"Just for investigating this old man's affairs, I could kill you outright. But seeing that you had no malicious intentions, I'll let it go." Naturally, Dugu Bo could not completely believe Li Fei. He was no fool and had naturally noticed quite a few loopholes in those words. He revealed a meaningful smile and did not pursue the matter, instead saying blandly, "This old man has studied this poison for so many years and still cannot completely remove it. I can only suppress it with Soul Power, and it has already become Poison in the Marrow. Where did your Pill, or rather, your formula, come from? Don't tell me it was that ancient book again?"

Li Fei spouted nonsense with a solemn expression. "That's right, it did come from that ancient book. Unfortunately, though, our house somehow caught fire once, and it happened to burn up. Otherwise, I would certainly have let Senior Poison Douluo take a good look at it."

"Hahahahahaha!!!!!"

Hearing this, Dugu Bo became even more certain that Li Fei's words were untrustworthy.

How could there be such a coincidence?

"This junior has already explained himself. I wonder whether Senior Poison Douluo is willing to accept this deep friendship?" Li Fei asked.

He dared to meet Dugu Bo alone because he understood Dugu Bo's personality. If it had been someone else, he might not have dared.

Especially not that crazy woman Bibi Dong.

"This old man will take your words as true. You cured this old man's poison and even allowed my Martial Soul to evolve into a Flood Dragon, raising my strength to another level. I agree. I accept this friendship!"

"All right, take out the second Pill and cure my granddaughter's poison."

"Once her poison is cured, you'll gain an even deeper friendship from me!"

Dugu Bo extended his hand in demand.

Li Fei secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

From now on, he could be considered to have a Title Douluo as his backer. With Sun and Moon Shine Golden Rotation as well, he no longer needed to fear Tai Tan of the Strength Clan!

If Dugu Bo joined the formation too, how powerful would it become?

The thought made him itch to give it a try.

He then took out a Universal Antidote Pill from his Soul Tool and handed it to Dugu Bo.

Dugu Bo was surprised, a sharp gleam flashing in his eyes. "You really do have one!"

He had merely been testing him. After all, the ingredients needed for such a Pill could not be simple.

Being able to refine one was already impressive enough, let alone having a second.
