The banquet celebrating Dugu Bo's rise to Title Douluo finally ended amid laughter throughout the hall.
From that day on, the label of weakest Title Douluo would be washed away. Travelers passing through Heaven Dou Imperial City would spread word of how Poison Douluo had overpowered Lightning Douluo Yu Yuanzhen.
Dugu Xin saw the guests off, escorting Sect Master Ning, Tang Yuehua, and the others out. When he turned back, Lin Yue had already packed his things.
"Hm? Little Lin, what's this?"
"Oh, I'm going back to Nuoding City."
Dugu Xin's face fell at the news that Lin Yue was leaving.
"Why? Has the Dugu Family not treated you well?"
"No, no. I promised someone I'd meet them, and I still have a few things to handle in Nuoding City. Besides, it's time I put hunting for a Spirit Ring on the schedule."
With his business in Heaven Dou Imperial City more or less settled, Lin Yue needed to prepare the next stage of Tang Yin's training and head to the Star Dou Forest to hunt for a Spirit Ring.
"You promised someone..."
Dugu Xin murmured the words and thought of a certain person. His expression turned strange, and he felt a little helpless.

Childhood sweethearts?
Damn...
No. For safety's sake, he had to go along.
"Mr. Lin, wouldn't it be safer if I went hunting with you for your Spirit Ring?"
Uneasy on more than one front, Dugu Xin immediately tried to accompany him.
"Flowers raised in a Greenhouse never grow strong. It's my Spirit Ring, so I should hunt for it myself. Besides, Uncle Xin, I've already used an Immortal Herb. You don't think I can handle one Soul Beast?"
