This Idiot Had Gone Crazy

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

Seeing Jiang Mo apologize so sincerely, Qian Renxue, whose anger had long since faded, did not pursue the matter further. She merely said:

"I know Uncle Jiang Mo advised me back then for my own good, and for the sake of Spirit Hall."

"But some things should not be done that way! We of Spirit Hall 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, not only will it damage Spirit Hall's reputation, it will also draw the Angel God's displeasure!"

"Young Mistress is right."

This grown man, Jiang Mo, lowered his head and stood before the tiny Qian Renxue like an obedient little child, making Qianjun beside him struggle to hold back his laughter.

Being taught how to behave by a child must have felt great for Jiang Mo, right?

It definitely felt great!

Tsk, tsk. He really wished he could record this scene and share it with all those old friends.

What a pity.

Half a month later.

"Alright. After taking this dose of medicine, the poison within Senior Dugu Bo's body will no longer suffer any backlash after today."

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

Dugu Bo snatched up the medicine Qian Renxue had prepared, but he did not leave immediately. Instead, he said to Qian Renxue excitedly:

"Thank you, Your Highness the Holy Maiden. After today, this old man will immediately set off for Heaven Dou! I will do my utmost to help Your Highness fulfill her wish!"

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

Especially after his son's death, it had been a very, very long time since he had been this happy!

Fifteen days! Every day, every second of these fifteen days, he could feel the poison that had tortured him for half his life continuously receding. That bone-piercing agony was slowly vanishing.

At the same time, over these fifteen days, his loyalty toward Qian Renxue had risen rapidly, and the title "Your Highness the Holy Maiden" had become increasingly natural on his tongue.

A divine physician! A divine physician indeed!

At such a young age, she had already mastered such poison-curing techniques! As expected of Spirit Hall's Holy Maiden! As expected of the genius girl who could make two Title Douluo submit obediently!

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

"Rest assured, Your Highness the Holy Maiden. This old man has already memorized how to use it over this period!"

Cradling the medicine in his hands, Dugu Bo turned and flew toward his place of seclusion!

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

Dugu Bo truly wanted to let out a long howl at once, but to maintain his steady image, he held himself back!

Bang!

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

Qianjun and Jiang Mo came to the front of the stone house and waited quietly. At the same time, they could not help but sigh 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 Great Worshiper had grown anxious waiting for them.

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

Time passed second by second.

As the sun in the sky began to set and a waning moon gradually rose, a vast surge of soul power burst forth from Dugu Bo's stone house!

"Hahahahaha!"

"Hahahahaha!"

"Hahahahaha!"

"I did it! I did it!"

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

His laughter resounded through half the sky. Dugu Bo shattered the stone door with one palm and shot into the heavens, recklessly releasing the soul power within his body!

No pain! No pain! No pain!

It did not hurt at all!

"Amazing! Amazing! Hahahahaha!"

Hearing the commotion, Qianjun and Jiang Mo came out of the room where they had been resting. Raising their heads to look at Dugu Bo dancing beneath the moonlight, they could not help but freeze.

"This idiot has gone crazy!"

"Ah! Grandpa, why are you acting like this!"

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

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

Sister Xue and Grandpa Qianjun and Grandpa Jiang Mo were all watching!

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

Sister Xue probably won't think I'm a strange little freak because of Grandpa, will she?

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

After seeing that Dugu Bo was responsible for the commotion, Qian Renxue smiled slightly. She gently patted Dugu Yan's little head, then took her hand and led her into the house.

Seeing Dugu Bo's near-mad appearance, she actually wanted to laugh too. But with Dugu Yan beside her, she could only suppress her amusement and wear an awkward yet polite smile.

With a little sister by her side, this big sister had to be a little 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 he laughed, a stream of tears slid from the corner of Dugu Bo's eyes.

It was truly cured! Truly cured!

Yanyan could be saved. Yanyan really could be saved...

If only Yanyan's father, his own son, could have held on for two more years.

If he had lasted another two years, perhaps he could have waited for Her Highness the Holy Maiden.

Thinking of the agony on his son's face before his death, immense pain surged within Dugu Bo's heart.

It truly was fate!

Heaven toyed with people!

The next day.

"It's time to go."

Qian Renxue stood outside the valley, looking somewhat wistful. 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 inside her storage soul tool, she could not help but feel emotional.

The gains from this outing had truly been enormous: several immortal herbs capable of laying the foundation for a Title Douluo, one Title Douluo, and an Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well that could continuously cultivate immortal herbs and rare treasures.

She truly did not know how astonishing the growth of her strength and influence would become after she digested these gains.

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

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

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

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

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

"It's time to go."

After the grandfather and granddaughter finished saying their goodbyes, Qian Renxue took Dugu Yan's little hand and left under Qianjun and Jiang Mo's escort.

Only Dugu Bo remained behind to guard the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, waiting for people from the Worship Hall to come 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 within her as she looked forward to how she might be able to help Lord Heavenly Dao.
