This Dumbass Has Gone Mad

"Young Mistress, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have forced my own ideas onto you." Jiang Mo apologized to Qian Renxue with a guilty expression.

Seeing Jiang Mo apologize so sincerely, Qian Renxue, whose anger had long since faded, did not dwell on it. She merely said:

"I know Uncle Jiang Mo tried to persuade me back then for my own good, and for the sake of Spirit Hall as well."

"But some things should not be done that way! As members of Spirit Hall, we should not rely on our strength to bully others at will, much less break agreements simply because the other party is weak or untalented."

"If we do such things too often, it will not only damage Spirit Hall's reputation, but also incur the Angel God's displeasure!"

"Young Mistress is right."

Jiang Mo lowered his head. Standing before the tiny Qian Renxue like an obedient child, he made Qian Jun beside him struggle to hold back his laughter.

Being taught how to behave by a child—Jiang Mo must have been having a great time, right?

He had to be!

Tsk, tsk. How Qian Jun wished he could record this scene and share it with all their old friends.

What a pity.

Half a month later.

"Alright. After taking this dose of medicine, Senior Dugu Bo's toxins will no longer suffer any backlash from tomorrow onward."

Qian Renxue wiped the sweat from her forehead and handed the medicine in her hand to Dugu Bo, who had been waiting anxiously.

Dugu Bo snatched up the medicine Qian Renxue had prepared. Rather than leaving immediately, he said to her excitedly:

"Thank you, Your Highness the Saintess. After today, this old man will immediately set out for Heaven Dou and devote all his strength to helping Your Highness fulfill your wish!"

These fifteen days had been the happiest period he had experienced in the past ten years.

Especially after his son's death, he had not been this happy in a very, very long time!

Fifteen days! Every day, every second of these fifteen days, he could feel the toxins that had tormented him for half his life steadily receding. The bone-piercing agony was slowly vanishing.

At the same time, over these fifteen days, his loyalty to Qian Renxue had risen rapidly, and calling her "Your Highness the Saintess" had become more and more natural.

A divine physician! A true divine physician!

To have mastered such poison-curing techniques at such a young age! Worthy of being Spirit Hall's Saintess! Worthy of being the genius girl who could make two Titled Douluo obey her every word!

Hearing Dugu Bo's assurance, Qian Renxue smiled faintly. "Senior, hurry and take the medicine. Remember to dissolve it in hot water."

"Rest assured, Your Highness. This old man has already memorized exactly how to use it during this time!"

Cradling the medicine, Dugu Bo turned and flew toward his secluded stone chamber!

Today was the final day he would break free from the backlash of the Jade Phosphor Serpent Poison!

Dugu Bo dearly wished to let out a long roar at once, but in order to maintain his composed image, he held it in!

Bang!

As the stone door shut, Dugu Bo began his final detoxification.

Qian Jun and Jiang Mo came to the entrance of the stone house and waited quietly, though they could not help sighing inwardly.

They had been away for too long this time. They had spent nearly a month delayed at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well alone.

They wondered whether the Grand Worshipper had grown anxious waiting.

And Bibi Dong too. Hopefully that crazy woman had not gone mad over the past month!

Time slipped by second by second.

As the sun began to sink in the west and a waning moon gradually rose into the sky, a vast surge of Soul Power burst from Dugu Bo's stone chamber!

"Hahahahaha!"

"Hahahahaha!"

"Hahahahaha!"

"It worked! It worked!"

"Today, I, Dugu Bo, have finally broken free of this cage!"

His laughter resounded across half the sky. Dugu Bo smashed the stone door apart with one palm, shot into the air, and recklessly unleashed the Soul Power within his body!

No pain! No pain! No pain!

Not even a little!

"Amazing! Amazing! Hahahahaha!"

Hearing the commotion, Qian Jun and Jiang Mo emerged from the room where they had been resting. They looked up at Dugu Bo dancing beneath the moonlight and could not help staring blankly.

"This dumbass has gone mad!"

"Ah! Grandpa, how can you act like this!"

Standing beside Qian Renxue, Dugu Yan covered her little face. Her cheeks were flushed crimson with embarrassment, and she only felt that her grandfather was being unbearably humiliating!

He did not look composed at all like he usually did.

Sister Xue and Grandpa Qian Jun and Grandpa Jiang Mo were all watching!

She secretly glanced at Qian Renxue beside her. When she saw no strange expression on her face, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Sister Xue probably would not think I'm some strange little weirdo because of Grandpa, right?

"Come on, Yanyan. Let's go inside."

Once she saw that Dugu Bo was behind the commotion, Qian Renxue smiled slightly. She gently patted Dugu Yan's little head, then took her small hand and led her inside.

Seeing Dugu Bo's nearly crazed appearance, she actually wanted to laugh too. But with Dugu Yan beside her, she could only suppress the amusement in her heart and wear an awkward yet polite smile.

With a little sister by her side, this big sister needed to be more composed!

She was an adult too!

She had brought Dugu Yan inside because she was afraid that if she kept watching, she truly would not be able to restrain herself from losing her composure.

Under the moonlight, as Dugu Bo laughed, a trail of tears slipped from the corner of his eye.

It really had been cured! It really had been cured!

Yanyan was saved. Yanyan really was saved...

If only Yanyan's father—his son—had held on for two more years.

If he had lasted two more years, perhaps he could have waited for Her Highness the Saintess.

Thinking of the pain-filled expression on his son's face before he died, Dugu Bo's heart welled with immense anguish.

What a matter of timing and fate!

Fate truly toyed with people!

The next day.

"It's time to leave."

Qian Renxue stood outside the valley, looking somewhat emotional. This had been the longest time she had ever spent away from home.

Thinking of everything she had experienced within the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, and the stalks of immortal herbs perfectly preserved in her storage Soul Tool, she could not help feeling moved.

The gains from this journey had truly been enormous: several immortal herbs capable of laying the foundation for becoming a Titled Douluo, one Titled Douluo, and an Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well capable of continuously cultivating immortal herbs and rare treasures.

She truly did not know how astonishing the growth of her strength and influence would be once she had fully digested these gains.

"Yanyan, you must be good in the days ahead!"

"Don't worry, Grandpa! Yanyan is the best-behaved!"

After spending this time together, Dugu Yan was no longer as resistant to leaving with Qian Renxue.

It was only going to Spirit Hall. Sister Xue was so kind; she definitely would not let anyone at Spirit Hall bully her.

"Mhm! My Yanyan is the best-behaved!" Dugu Bo smiled kindly.

"It's time to go."

After the grandfather and granddaughter had finished saying goodbye, Qian Renxue took Dugu Yan's little hand and left with Qian Jun and Jiang Mo escorting them.

Dugu Bo alone remained behind to guard the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, waiting for people from the Worship Hall to arrive and take over.

"Once I return to Spirit Hall and explain everything to Grandpa, I can go help Lord Heavenly Dao. I wonder where Lord Heavenly Dao will send me?" Qian Renxue thought silently.

A trace of anticipation rose in her heart as she wondered how she would be able to help Lord Heavenly Dao.
