"You..."

Dugu Bo hesitated for a long while, his lips trembling slightly, as though a thousand words were lodged in his throat, yet he did not know where to begin.

In the end, he gritted his teeth and looked at Ye Ruilin with resolute eyes.

"Whether or not you can accomplish it in the future, I, Dugu Bo, will surely remember this favor."

Today, he had seen hope in this young man.

He was willing to take a gamble—a gamble that this young man could change his fate!

"You can pick some of this Green Scale Heart-Clearing Grass for your granddaughter."

"Though its effects are limited, it should still help her somewhat."

Ye Ruilin pointed to the Green Scale Heart-Clearing Grass growing in a crack between the rocks nearby and spoke softly.

Dugu Bo nodded, gratitude flashing through his eyes as he carefully gathered the immortal herbs.

Nearby, Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo exchanged a glance, surprise and approval flickering in both their eyes.

They had not expected this young man to win the promise of a Title Douluo with just a few words.

Although Dugu Bo was weaker than the two of them.

He was still a Title Douluo, and one who specialized in poison.

In a group battle, Dugu Bo's usefulness could even surpass theirs by far.

"Before this, I thought my opinion of him had already been quite high."

"Now it seems that this boy from the Ye Family keeps reshaping my understanding of him every time."

Sword Douluo sighed softly, his tone carrying a trace of complexity.

"Hehe, this kid is talented, capable, and skilled."

"He'd make a pretty good match for our Rongrong."

A hint of determination shone in Bone Douluo's eyes.

He had decided that as long as this boy remained in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, he would make sure Rongrong won him over.

His Rongrong was so sweet and clever. Wouldn't winning over this boy be effortless?

Ning Rongrong had no idea what her two grandfathers were thinking.

At this moment, she only felt that Brother Ye was incredibly amazing. He actually recognized so many immortal herbs.

"Brother Ye, it's finally my turn now, right?"

The little girl spoke in a crisp voice, expectation written all over her face.

Ye Ruilin smiled indulgently.

"Come on. What suits our Rongrong should be in the middle section here."

After only a few steps, they found a ganoderma that was exceptionally suitable for Ning Rongrong.

"Oh, this Glazed Ganoderma is quite large."

"Rongrong, this is an immortal herb of spiritual energy. It does not belong to any of the five elemental attributes. The entire ganoderma is as dazzling as seven-colored glazed glass and contains extremely powerful spiritual energy."

"After consuming it, it can greatly raise your Soul Power Level."

"This ganoderma is old enough that it may bring other unexpected gains as well."

Ye Ruilin nodded in satisfaction.

An immortal herb with the same attribute would certainly help Ning Rongrong's Martial Soul break through its limitations.

And its effects should far exceed the Aromatic Silk Beauty Tang San had given her.

After all, the Aromatic Silk Beauty was merely a neutral immortal herb. It was nowhere near as suitable for Ning Rongrong as the Glazed Ganoderma.

Ning Rongrong delightedly accepted the Glazed Ganoderma from Ye Ruilin.

The seven-colored radiance it emitted was as dazzling and brilliant as her Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.

At first glance, Ning Rongrong had already taken a liking to the beautiful little thing.

She reluctantly glanced at the Glazed Ganoderma in her palm before finally asking Ye Ruilin how to consume it.

"Brother Ye, do I just eat this directly?"

Ning Rongrong frowned slightly as she looked at the enormous ganoderma in her hand.

It was so big. She might not be able to finish it.

Ye Ruilin immediately chuckled and gestured for the little girl to sit down.

"Sit properly."

Ning Rongrong obediently did as she was told, sitting cross-legged before Ye Ruilin.

Ye Ruilin placed the Glazed Ganoderma in his palm and squeezed. The entire ganoderma was instantly crushed into powder.

Flames rose, wrapping the powder within them.

Everyone immediately caught the scent of medicinal herbs wafting through the air.

With only a light sniff, they felt their minds instantly clear and their bodies refreshed.

Ning Rongrong wrinkled her little nose, a comfortable expression appearing on her face.

Moments later, the powder in Ye Ruilin's palm had turned into a thick liquid.

The liquid was crystal clear, radiating seven-colored light, while dark brown essence flowed through its center.

"Eat it."

Ye Ruilin brought the liquid to Ning Rongrong's lips, and she swallowed it in one gulp without hesitation.

The instant it entered her mouth, a cool sensation swept through her entire body. Her body trembled slightly, a flush appearing on her face as though she were completely enveloped in spiritual energy.

Ning Rongrong immediately calmed her mind and began absorbing the surging spiritual energy.

Before long, only Sword Douluo, Bone Douluo, and Ye Ruilin remained in the area.

Looking at the two Title Douluo standing nearby, Ye Ruilin considered whether he should find corresponding immortal herbs for these two seniors as well.

After all, he had already helped Ning Rongrong.

With such a favor between them.

No matter what happened in the future, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect could never become his enemy.

After thinking for a moment, Ye Ruilin made his decision.

"Two seniors, although this place is well hidden, it is still out in the open."

"For everyone's safety, I'll have to trouble you two seniors."

"There are many immortal herbs here, and naturally there are some suitable for you both. Please allow this junior to find them for you later."

Ye Ruilin spoke with utmost sincerity.

Bone Douluo was rather surprised. He had not expected Ye Ruilin to consider them as well.

"Hehe, kid, we only came along this time to fulfill our promise to you."

"Rongrong has received your help this time. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect already owes you an enormous favor."

"The two of us needn't trouble ourselves."

Bone Douluo felt that this boy was like a little fox.

If one was not careful, one might end up owing him a favor.

"You two seniors need not worry too much."

"This is merely a gesture of goodwill from this junior."

"If you two seniors had not been here, things would not have gone so smoothly this time."

Ye Ruilin revealed a bitter smile, looking as though he had been wronged.

"You sly little brat..."

Before Bone Douluo could finish speaking, everyone's attention was instantly drawn by a pillar of fire shooting into the sky.

In the distance, where Old Wu sat cross-legged.

Old Wu's body floated in midair, completely enveloped by a crimson pillar of light.

Scorching energy surged like an erupting volcano, and everyone could clearly see the surrounding air warping from the heat.

A world-shaking roar erupted from within the pillar of light.

The sound carried boundless majesty and power, causing the entire valley to tremble along with it.

Even the tranquil lake seemed to have been shaken into massive waves by that power.

The water on the icy side instantly froze, while the water on the scorching side boiled and churned, releasing rolling waves of heat.

The towering pillar of light gradually faded, and Old Wu's figure slowly appeared.

Behind him stood a massive canine phantom, towering dozens of meters high. Its fur burned like flames, while its eyes resembled blazing suns, radiating a light too dazzling to face.

A scorching halo surrounded the phantom, and its aura was like a volcanic eruption, carrying a destructive pressure.

Even from several meters away, they could feel the heat wave crashing toward them.

Old Wu slowly descended, opening his eyes. It was as though two flames danced within his pupils.

At this moment, his aura had completely changed, and an overwhelming pressure filled his entire body.

With a single glance, Ye Ruilin recognized Old Wu's newly evolved Martial Soul!

A true top-tier fire-attribute divine beast Martial Soul—

Sun-Swallowing Heavenly Dog!!!
