The Method of Detoxification, Dugu Bo Willing to Serve Faithfully

Bi Ji's call came from outside the medical clinic.

Zi Ji and Gu Yuena fixed their gazes on the entrance.

Bi Ji entered first, followed closely by Dugu Yan. Dugu Bo came in last.

When Zi Ji and Gu Yuena saw Dugu Bo, they noticed that all color had drained from his face, leaving him pale and haggard.

Gu Yuena understood that it was caused by the poison.

Zi Ji was different. A Title Douluo like Dugu Bo could still become this weak?

Could it be... that old man had been indulging himself too much every day!

"Yifeng, you're here too!"

Dugu Yan's eyes lit up when she saw Yifeng, and she immediately came over to greet him.

"Doctor Bi Ji is a friend of mine. She said there was a patient suffering from severe poisoning, so she asked me to take a look."

"You?"

Dugu Yan froze.

Shen Yifeng knew medicine too?

He was far too well-rounded.

"I know a little about treating poison. Besides, your grandfather's poison comes from his Martial Soul!"

As soon as he finished speaking,

Dugu Bo, who had just sat down, instantly tensed up and rose to his feet again, staring fixedly at Shen Yifeng.

How did this youth know?

No one knew this secret—not even his own daughter.

His heart, which had once been as lifeless as ashes, began beating again, as though he had glimpsed hope.

Since Shen Yifeng knew the secret of the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Poison, he naturally knew a way to cure it.

"Young man, go on."

Dugu Bo said.

"It seems Senior Dugu is very interested. Your poison does not come from the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Poison itself, but from a flaw in your Martial Souls. It has been passed down for several generations."

"If you had not broken through to become a Title Douluo, you might have long since been walking the Yellow Springs Road."

Shen Yifeng described it casually.

Those few words alone were enough to make Dugu Bo begin believing him. Good lad, he truly had some skill.

Where had he learned this?

If this poison could be cured, he would truly strike it rich.

"Grandfather, is what Yifeng said true?"

Dugu Yan asked curiously, her voice carrying a trace of concern.

"It's true."

"Everything Yifeng said is true. Our Dugu Family has been plagued by the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Poison for generations."

Dugu Bo nodded in acknowledgment.

Since it had already been laid bare, there was no need to keep hiding it.

My wife is amazing.

Gu Yuena's eyes sparkled with little stars as she looked at him in admiration.

The woman from my previous life truly was extraordinary. She must have at least half of my wisdom.

I'm already this smart, so how could my wife possibly be dumb? If we combined to create new life, just how smart would it be?

Zi Ji and Bi Ji exchanged looks, both filled with admiration for their mistress.

"Yifeng, can you cure this poison?"

"As long as you can cure it, any condition is acceptable."

Dugu Yan immediately looked at Shen Yifeng pleadingly.

Since her grandfather had admitted it, it seemed that the other Soul Masters did not know where the poison lay. Yet Shen Yifeng had exposed its source in a single sentence, so he surely knew how to cure it.

"I know how to detoxify it, but..."

Shen Yifeng paused without continuing, instead looking at Dugu Bo.

Was Dugu Bo willing to pay any price to be cured?

No one was more desperate than Dugu Bo to remove the poison. He immediately dropped to one knee. "Yifeng, if you can help me cure this poison, then I, Dugu Bo, am willing to serve you faithfully, without the slightest divided loyalty."

He did not care whether he had to pledge allegiance to Shen Yifeng. As long as the poison could be cured, that was the urgent matter at hand.

"Senior Dugu, since you've said so, I'll tell you the method of detoxification."

Dugu Bo stood up and listened attentively.

"To detoxify it, you need an Immortal Herb. That herb seems to grow in Sunset Forest."

Sunset Forest!

Dugu Bo thought of his Herb Garden. Perhaps it was there, since it contained all kinds of medicinal herbs.

He did not recognize a single one himself. It might very well be among them.

"Yifeng, I have a Herb Garden in Sunset Forest. Perhaps it contains what you need."

Dugu Bo immediately offered.

"Since Senior Dugu has said so, then I'll trouble you, Senior."

Bi Ji and Zi Ji exchanged a glance and spoke at the same time.

"We'll come along and join the fun."

Di Tian was handling matters in Star Dou, while Xiong Jun was busy with his Support Association. Bi Ji and Zi Ji had nothing better to do anyway.

Both their mistress and their lord were going, so as subordinates, they certainly could not be absent.

Dugu Bo hurriedly nodded.

"Welcome, welcome. More people means more support for one another."

To cure a poison that had troubled his family for generations, let alone two more people, he would gladly welcome an entire crowd.

Today was a good day.

His mood had improved greatly. The feeling of being about to get rid of the poison was truly wonderful.

Bi Ji turned around, shut the medical clinic's doors, and hung up a sign reading, "Closed Today."

Everyone set out together toward Sunset Forest.

As they passed a small street stall selling rice balls, a tempting fragrance drifted through the air.

Bi Ji stopped.

"Let's buy some for the road. Boss, give us ten rice balls."

They should prepare some in case they got hungry along the way. Their mistress was human now and needed to eat, especially while she was still growing.

"Wait."

Shen Yifeng spoke.

"Make it fifty."

The stall owner froze for a moment before hurriedly agreeing.

A major customer. Truly a major customer.

Fifty rice balls—this was his first time seeing such an order.

Gu Yuena was both happy and embarrassed as she gently tugged at Shen Yifeng's sleeve.

My wife even remembered how much I could eat. She's so thoughtful.

It was just a little embarrassing for her to say it in front of so many people.

Zi Ji snickered at the side and added,

"How could fifty possibly be enough? Add another twenty!"

Seventy rice balls. The stall owner immediately called for his assistants to hurry and prepare them, making sure not to delay these distinguished guests.

Seventy rice balls!

Dugu Yan's eyes widened. What kind of glutton could eat that much?

Very soon,

the seventy rice balls were packaged up, and the stall owner respectfully presented them with both hands.

Bi Ji stored them in her Soul Tool, then took out some to distribute among everyone.

Gu Yuena took ten, and Zi Ji took ten as well.

Chatting and laughing along the way, the group soon arrived at Sunset Forest.

Zi Ji swept her gaze around. There probably was not a dragon fiercer than her anywhere in this forest.

So there was no need to worry about safety.

"Let's go. The Herb Garden is inside."

Dugu Bo led the way. Before long, they saw an area ahead blanketed in mist.

With a light snap of his fingers, part of the mist dispersed, revealing an entrance.

The group continued deeper, first arriving in a valley. Gu Yuena could clearly sense that the aura in the surroundings was dense and powerful.

Everyone looked in the direction where the mist had cleared.

When they saw its true appearance, they could not help drawing in sharp breaths.

At the center lay an extraordinary lake.

The lake was divided into two halves. The left side was crimson like blood, with rolling heat waves rising from it.

The right side was white as ice, giving off wisps of cold air.

The two utterly opposing forces met at the center of the lake without infringing upon one another, forming a sharply distinct dividing line.

"This is my Herb Garden. And Yifeng, the thing you mentioned for detoxification should be somewhere within it."

Dugu Bo introduced it, glancing at everyone's expressions with a faint sense of pride in his heart.

No outsiders had ever come to this Herb Garden.

Now that so many had arrived at once, seeing their astonished expressions felt incredibly satisfying!
