Amidst the endless chatter of the spectators.
A youth with long, silver-white hair and wearing a light ice-blue, long-style Hall of Worship robe stepped out.
"Who are you? Why have you trespassed into my medicinal garden?"
Dugu Bo did not relax because of the youth's appearance; instead, he became increasingly vigilant.
Once one's strength reaches a certain level, appearance is no longer the sole standard for judging a person's age.
"Why?" Radiant Douluo sneered, a playful expression appearing on his face.
"If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for touching someone you shouldn't have."
"Someone I shouldn't have touched?" Dugu Bo immediately looked at Tang San beside him.
Damn, it's actually not Tang Hao making a move, but this guy came specifically to help Tang San. Could he be one of Tang Hao's subordinates?
It's possible. After all, he is Clear Sky Douluo; it makes sense for him to have some hidden powerhouses under his command.
I thought Tang San was a grassroots hero rising up, but I didn't expect him to have several Title Douluo backing him.
Still, it's hard to say who is stronger between him and Poison Douluo. Can he actually save Tang San?
To the guy above, what are you thinking? Tang San is the protagonist; how could he die so easily?
Since Tang Hao let someone else step in to help, it means he's watching nearby, just not wanting to show his face to Tang San personally.
If there's real danger, it's only natural for Tang Hao to intervene, right?
The spectators exchanged words, quickly labeling Radiant Douluo as one of Tang Hao's subordinates.
"Your Excellency, I was unaware that Tang San had a powerhouse like you behind him," Dugu Bo said in a deep voice.
"However, I haven't harmed Tang San. I was merely curious about how he neutralized my poison, so I was just discussing it with him."
"Now that I am handing Tang San over, why don't we let this go so as not to damage our relations?"
Dugu Bo could sense that the Radiant Douluo before him was far stronger than himself.
It was a pity that Radiant Douluo had been secluded within the Hall of Worship for decades, so even he could not determine the other's true identity.
Listening to Dugu Bo's words, Tang San could not swallow this insult.
The man had abducted him for no reason and even attempted to poison him; in Tang San's eyes, this was already a path to death.
Furthermore, Tang San had noticed Dugu Bo's medicinal garden; it was a rare treasure land in this world, filled with Immortal Herbs everywhere.
If he didn't take a few Immortal Herbs, he didn't want to leave like a stray dog.
"Senior, this old Poison Douluo just tried to poison me," Tang San shouted toward Radiant Douluo.
"But I haven't actually done it yet, have I?" Dugu Bo retorted.
"Besides, I only wanted to poison you just now to see if you could neutralize it."
"Since I can poison you, I can naturally cure the poison in your body as well; there was no threat to your life."
Radiant Douluo listened to their exchange and shook his head with a sneer.
"You may leave, but this medicinal garden now belongs to me. Consider it an apology, how about that?"
As he spoke, an Ice Crystal Longbow appeared in Radiant Douluo's hand.
Yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, black—nine Soul Rings swirled around his body.
"He's actually a Super Douluo!"
Feeling Radiant Douluo's aura, Dugu Bo's pupils constricted.
He had previously assumed the man was only slightly stronger than himself; he never expected him to be a Super Douluo above level ninety-five.
Without any hesitation, Dugu Bo immediately chose to concede and leave.
"Since Your Excellency has said so, then this medicinal garden shall serve as my apology."
Although Dugu Bo was reluctant to part with the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye, this heaven-sent treasure land.
Between Super Douluo, every level higher resulted in a world-shattering difference in combat power.
If a Super Douluo made up their mind and refused to let him leave alive, they absolutely had the ability to kill Dugu Bo.
It would merely cost them some time.
"A wise choice."
Radiant Douluo held his longbow, watching Dugu Bo's retreating back.
Only after the man had completely disappeared did he retract his Martial Soul.
"Many thanks to Senior for saving my life."
Seeing this, Tang San immediately spoke up in gratitude, hoping to build a connection.
"I just don't know why Senior chose to save me? May I ask for your name? Tang San will certainly repay this in the future."
Hearing Tang San's words, Radiant Douluo immediately stopped him.
"Hold it. I have no relation to you, and I don't need your repayment."
[What the heck is this? Isn't this a Titled Douluo sent by Tang Hao?] a viewer asked, confused.
[Oh, could it be that the other party just happens to dislike Dugu Bo, and this is that kind of plot?]
[He just happens to dislike Dugu Bo, so he'll teach him a lesson, then slowly become good friends with Tang San, and finally escort him?]
[It's possible, but didn't he just say to Dugu Bo, "Did you touch someone you shouldn't have?"]
[If he really has nothing to do with Tang Hao, then why would he say that?]
While the live stream comments were still frantically scrolling, guessing the origin of the Radiant Douluo.
The valley fell silent.
Tang San was currently gazing expectantly at the Radiant Douluo, waiting for him to speak.
However, from the shadows of the distant canyon, a figure slowly walked out.
A red trench coat fluttered in the mountain wind, its hem inlaid with dark gold patterns, and black hair fell across his forehead.
Tang San froze upon seeing the person and blurted out:
"Han Xing? It's you?"
Han Xing didn't stop walking, showing no intention of acknowledging Tang San.
Only when he reached the Radiant Douluo's side did he speak indifferently, "Teacher, is everything handled?"
The Radiant Douluo chuckled in reply, "As you predicted, Dugu Bo is unwilling to fight a Super Douluo like me to the death."
"He has now offered the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye as compensation and retreated on his own."
As soon as these words were spoken, Tang San's mind went blank, and he froze on the spot.
The live stream comments instantly exploded:
[Holy crap? This Silver-haired Titled Douluo belongs to Han Xing? Isn't he a complete orphan?]
[I thought he was Tang Hao's subordinate before, but it turns out he's Han Xing's teacher?]
[The cold and aloof genius Han Xing from Notting Academy actually has a Level 96 Super Douluo behind him?]
[I don't know why, but I feel like the protagonist and the supporting character have their roles reversed.]
[Protagonist Tang San, subjected to cold mockery, apprentices under Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang, a Level 29 Master.]
[Supporting character Han Xing, nurtured as a genius disciple by Spirit Hall since childhood, apprentices under a Level 96 Super Douluo.]
[Tang San's experience isn't really a problem; protagonists are often disliked by everyone, so it would be strange if he wasn't targeted.]
[The main issue is the difference in masters; one apprentices under a Super Douluo, the other under a Great Soul Master. The gap is too huge.]
[Grandmaster's strength might be a bit lacking, but his abilities are fine.]
[Didn't Flander and Liu Erlong ask him to be in charge of the Wisdom Horn?]
[Uh... that's true, but the gap still feels enormous.]
Tang San swallowed hard and couldn't help but press further:
"Han Xing, this senior... is your teacher? Was it also your arrangement to force the Poison Douluo away just now?"
