Xue Ye sighed. "My thoughts on Qin Yun's idea are nothing but deep admiration. If it can be achieved, the empire could indeed be passed down for generations to come."
Dai Jili said, "The Lei Family truly deserves death. Has Lei Jie still not been captured?"
Dai Weisi replied, "Father, most of the Lei Family has been captured. Lei Jie fled Qianxin City with those close to him, but they will not get far. The army has already surrounded them."
Lei Jie shouted, "Tyrant! That clearly happened in another world, so why should it be pinned on me? Tyrant, a complete and utter tyrant! The fact that your Star Luo Empire was defeated by Qin Yun is fate!"
Dai Weisi said, "Still talking tough? Men, capture them quickly! Ten thousand gold for every relative of Lei Jie captured, and one hundred thousand for Lei Jie himself!"
Sunset Forest, at the Icefire Yin Yang Well!
Dugu Bo merely smiled without saying anything as he watched the words on the Sky Screen.
The world was already in chaos. Every party getting involved was a major power.
As the weakest Titled Douluo, he had better stay out of it. If he got involved, he would probably be hunted to death by the other Titled Douluo.
He still had grudges with Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo.
No, it was he who held grudges against Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo. The title of weakest Titled Douluo had been spread by Chrysanthemum Douluo himself.
It was utterly infuriating. So what if his attack power was a little weaker? He still had his ultimate weapon.
As long as he unleashed the toxins within his body, he could turn an entire city and its surrounding lands into a dead zone.
However, that move was too harmful to the natural order. Unless he had no other choice, he would never use it.
If he did use it, neither he nor his granddaughter would benefit.
He would have to cripple all his power, while Dugu Yan would be branded an Evil Soul Master by the rest of the continent.
"Still, why do I feel like my eyelid has been twitching today? It feels as though something is about to happen."
Dugu Bo rubbed his eyes as he spoke.
Ever since the Sky Screen appeared today, he had been uneasy. His right eyelid had kept twitching.
"Could something bad be about to happen? Could it involve Yanyan?"
"I think, Poison Old Man, that you should be more concerned about yourself."
Suddenly, a familiar voice rang out from nowhere.
"Old Chrysanthemum? You actually made it here? How did you do it?"
Dugu Bo looked around, unable to understand how Chrysanthemum Douluo had broken through that layer of poisonous mist.
"I truly had an expert guiding me, Poison Old Man. You've been hiding away in Sunset Forest, never expecting me to enter directly, did you?"
Chrysanthemum Douluo appeared and mocked Dugu Bo.
"You're not alone, are you?" Dugu Bo narrowed his eyes.
He could sense several others nearby.
"You still have some brains. At least the strength of your Titled Douluo title hasn't gone entirely to waste."
Chrysanthemum Douluo nodded slightly, agreeing with him while still taking the chance to insult him.
The moment he finished speaking, several more figures appeared beside him.
Even Chrysanthemum Douluo bowed respectfully to the man at their head.
"Greetings, Second Worship."
"Second Worship? Golden Crocodile Douluo?" Dugu Bo muttered, his eyes widening.
Even Golden Crocodile Douluo had come. It seemed he was in grave danger this time.
"It really is as Lord Qin Feng said. There are many good things here. You lot, hurry up and pack away all these immortal herbs."
Golden Crocodile Douluo did not look at Dugu Bo. Instead, his gaze shone as he stared at the immortal herbs growing from the ground.
Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum!
That was Chrysanthemum Douluo's martial soul, so he was the first to put away the immortal herb.
"Wait! What are you doing? Put down my herbs!"
Dugu Bo shouted angrily, but shouting was all he did.
He did not dare move recklessly. Golden Crocodile Douluo was watching him. If he made a move, he would definitely be the one to die.
Yet as he watched Chrysanthemum Douluo and the others sweep away every herb around the Icefire Yin Yang Well, Dugu Bo's heart bled.
But what could he do? He could not defeat a single person present.
These bastards had looted every herb he had painstakingly cultivated.
And judging by their practiced movements, it seemed they had planned this long ago.
Bastards~
"Oh, right, Dugu Bo. We are not taking these immortal herbs for nothing. A lord asked us to tell you that these are compensation. They can help resolve the poison in both you and your granddaughter."
Golden Crocodile Douluo spoke to Dugu Bo again.
He felt that Lord Qin Feng was far too kind. Treasures belonged to the capable; if Dugu Bo had his things taken, it was only because he was weak. He could only blame himself.
He could not blame anyone else.
Yet Lord Qin Feng actually intended to compensate them. He was truly kindhearted.
"What? The poison in Yanyan and me?"
Upon hearing that, Dugu Bo's expression turned serious.
In that case, it did not seem entirely unacceptable.
After all, he did not even know what effects these herbs had. He had never dared eat them, fearing that one careless mistake would cause them to clash with his poison arts and kill him.
Now that someone could cure both him and his granddaughter of their poison, they only wanted to take away herbs he did not understand. Well, why should he refuse?
Still, he had to ask, "Who is this lord you mentioned? Does he truly have the ability to cure the poison in our bodies?"
"You dare question Lord Qin Feng? Truly, kindness has been mistaken for ill intent."
Golden Crocodile Douluo instantly looked at Dugu Bo coldly. Dugu Bo dared question Lord Qin Feng—he truly had a death wish.
"No, no, that is not what I meant. I was merely curious."
Dugu Bo hurriedly replied.
He could not let their relationship turn sour, or his only hope would be gone.
"Hmph. We will be waiting for you in Spirit City."
After Chrysanthemum Douluo and the others finished gathering the immortal herbs, Golden Crocodile Douluo left those words behind and departed with everyone else.
"Spirit City? I will go. First, I need to find Yanyan."
Dugu Bo was in high spirits. He had already guessed who the person capable of curing their poison was.
But the next moment, he felt an immensely powerful pressure descend upon him.
In an instant, he dropped to his knees, struggling desperately to hold himself up.
"Who is it? Could Golden Crocodile Douluo and the others have changed their minds and come back to silence me?"
Dugu Bo's thoughts raced. Golden Crocodile Douluo was the only one he could suspect.
After all, they had reason to silence him.
But he quickly realized he was wrong when he saw a woman in white suddenly appear.
"Her? That soul beast sovereign called Gu Yuena?"
Dugu Bo recognized her. She had appeared many times on the Sky Screen.
Her strength was unfathomable, seemingly close to that of a god.
But why had she come here?
What disaster had befallen Sunset Forest today? Two groups had arrived one after another.
"Miss Gu Yuena, sovereign of the soul beasts, may I ask what brings you here?"
Dugu Bo could only ask cautiously, his voice broken by the overwhelming pressure.
However, Gu Yuena ignored him. Instead, she flew above the Icefire Yin Yang Well and stared at it in a daze.
