What could possibly be so miraculous?
Might as well try treating a dead horse as if it were alive. Almost no one in the world could detoxify this poison anyway.
This toxin had existed since before his grandfather's generation, and even his own son had died from it.
Sigh, it was truly hard to put into words.
Although it had flaws like the Nine Heart Begonia, the Jade Phosphorous Serpent's flaw could cost him his life!
After leaving home, Dugu Yan dragged him all the way to a place called Bixin Medical Hall.
There were at least a hundred people lined up.
That kind of scale was rare indeed.
"Yan Yan, are you sure this is the place?"
"It shouldn't be wrong, right?"
Getting treatment in Heaven Dou City was not cheap, especially in this part of town.
This was Dugu Bo's first time seeing such a sight.
"Honestly, I heard the doctor here came from Nuoding City. Her treatment fees are low and her prices aren't expensive. She's a true benefactor."
The clinic had opened several times before, but it would return to Nuoding City after staying open for a while. Only now had it confirmed its move here.
"Then I truly have to take a look."
Dugu Bo was somewhat intrigued. If the results were good, he might truly think more highly of her.
Soon,
one group after another finished lining up, and it was quickly Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan's turn.
The people in line around them fell silent the moment they saw Dugu Bo, followed by an uproar.
Many instinctively took several steps back, terror appearing on their faces.
Everyone knew that Poison Douluo Dugu Bo killed without batting an eye. Anyone touched by his poison would surely die. Why had he come to this medical clinic?
Ignoring everyone's stares, Dugu Bo followed Dugu Yan into the medical clinic.
The clinic was quiet, filled only with the faint scent of medicinal herbs.
He looked up and saw that the person seated behind the consultation desk was actually a young woman in her early twenties, with delicate features and a gentle temperament.
"My name is Bi Ji. Just call me Doctor Bi."
Bi Ji smiled faintly when she saw the two of them.
"Please sit. Tell me where you're feeling unwell."
Dugu Bo sat down boldly, crossing his arms over his chest.
"Doctor Bi, this is my first visit. Please see whether you can determine exactly what illness this old man has."
Bi Ji's brows lifted slightly, but she did not get angry.
He did not explain the reason and wanted her to guess for herself.
She had long grown accustomed to such doubts.
Interesting. She wanted to see what exactly this renowned Poison Douluo had hidden inside his body.
Before arriving in Heaven Dou City, she had already investigated the people among these factions.
Only Dugu Bo was especially unusual.
Bi Ji extended a finger, gathering a soft emerald-green glow at its tip before gently sending it into the veins in Dugu Bo's wrist.
The emerald-green Soul Power slowly flowed through his veins and entered Dugu Bo's body.
A moment later, Bi Ji frowned slightly.
This old poisoner's body was practically a den of poison!
His internal organs had all been corroded by various deadly toxins, while mixed poisons flowed through his meridians.
An ordinary person would have died hundreds of times already. Only his profound cultivation had allowed him to endure until now.
How had he survived until now?
"Your meridians and internal organs are almost entirely filled with deadly poison. Tsk, tsk, tsk, interesting. If you weren't a Title Douluo, you probably wouldn't have lived this long."
Bi Ji spoke these words.
Dugu Bo was stunned. What she said was almost entirely accurate, but she had actually understood the toxins so clearly?
"Doctor Bi, do you have a way to treat it?"
Dugu Bo asked urgently.
Even if there was no way to detoxify it, a method of suppression would still be good.
At least he would not have to go through so much trouble traveling to Sunset Forest.
"Yes, but it can only suppress it for a period of time. As for the poison... it cannot be removed."
Bi Ji had no way to remove it either. It had already seeped into his bones, and removing it would be difficult.
Unless there were truly some heavenly treasure, otherwise... sooner or later, the poison would flare up and kill him.
"Sigh... so be it. I acknowledge Doctor Bi's medical skill."
Dugu Bo was convinced.
At the side, Dugu Yan was completely confused. "Grandpa, what did Doctor Bi mean? What does she mean by saying you're poisoned?"
"Yan Yan, Grandpa has merely been studying poison techniques. I'll be fine after resting for a while."
Dugu Bo told a small lie because he did not want his granddaughter to worry.
Bi Ji saw Dugu Bo's difficulty and smiled as she went along with it. "Your grandfather is fine."
"That's good. Thank you, Doctor Bi."
Dugu Yan let out a sigh of relief.
While Bi Ji prepared the medicine, she brought up her master.
"Dugu Yan, you're from Heaven Dou Royal Academy, right?"
"Yes. Is there something Doctor Bi wishes to ask me?"
Dugu Yan said.
"I heard that a handsome man named Shen Yifeng joined your academy. What kind of person is he?"
Bi Ji also wanted to hear how people elsewhere evaluated her master.
"Doctor Bi, you've asked the right person."
"Shen Yifeng truly is a genius. The talent he displayed after arriving at the academy left me stunned. He's incredible. Being able to force Yu Tianheng back like that was terrifying."
Dugu Yan looked Shen Yifeng up and down as she continuously praised him. There was not the slightest bit of falsehood in her words; it all came from the heart.
Bi Ji was very happy to hear it. Her master was indeed the same wherever he went.
Shen Yifeng finished preparing the medicine and handed it to Dugu Bo.
"There are three doses inside. Take one once a day. Take another whenever you feel unwell; it can suppress the symptoms. The last one stimulates the body. Sprinkle it into water and soak in it for half a shichen."
The three doses had been marked with their respective uses and instructions.
"Thank you, Doctor Bi. How much do I owe you?"
Dugu Bo asked.
"No payment is necessary. I know Shen Yifeng, and besides, hearing your granddaughter praise him so much makes me happy. I won't charge you."
Bi Ji said with a smile.
This money meant little to her.
She had earned too much already, and together with the money Zi Ji had won, there was more than they could ever spend.
After the two left, Bi Ji fell into thought. Did her master have any insight into this matter?
Elsewhere, Shen Yifeng woke up and discovered that beneath him was something soft. His first reaction was—
This was definitely not the softness of something ordinary. It felt soft to the touch, and it even had elasticity...
Elasticity...
Shen Yifeng's eyes widened. Everything before him was pitch-black, and he could not see his hand in front of his face. He instinctively lifted the blanket, and the sunlight was blinding.
Rubbing his eyes, Shen Yifeng sat up and discovered beneath him was the incomparably beautiful Silver Dragon King, possessed of world-shaking wisdom.
"Wake up!"
Shen Yifeng shouted.
"Ah?"
"Is it morning already?"
Gu Yuena yawned, looking utterly harmless.
Her silver hair was disheveled, her skin snow-white, and her clothes wrinkled. She looked as though she had just done something bad.
"What's wrong, Yifeng?"
"Why are you under me? And why does my body hurt so much? What did you do to me?"
Shen Yifeng: ...
Gu Yuena came to her senses, her pretty face flushing red as she put on an aggrieved expression, as though she were the victim.
Hehe!
She had been right to do this. Her wife would definitely be left speechless and would not get angry either.
This was a display of the Silver Dragon King's methods and wisdom.
No one else could possibly think of such a trick.
But she was really sore. Her wife had been so restless while sleeping last night. She should have prepared more medicine.
"Gu Yuena, what are you up to again?"
Shen Yifeng rolled his eyes at Gu Yuena. He could tell at a glance what she was trying to do.
"Yifeng, I'm the victim. How can you say that about me~"
