Lunch continued, and the atmosphere grew much more relaxed. Dai Mubai casually asked, "Father-in-law, has anything particularly sensational happened in Heaven Dou City lately?"
Ning Fengzhi thought for a moment before answering, "There was one incident that caused quite a stir. A year and a half ago, Poison Douluo Dugu Bo suddenly left Prince Xue Xing's birthday banquet, and no one has heard from him since. The Heaven Dou Imperial Family investigated several times but still couldn't find any trace of him. Everyone has been speculating that Spirit Hall might have secretly eliminated him. He was a Titled Douluo, after all. His disappearance caused quite an uproar in Heaven Dou City at the time."
Hearing this, Dai Mubai rubbed his nose and said, "Well... to be honest with you elders, I was the one who killed Dugu Bo."
"What?" Ning Fengzhi and the other two looked shocked.
Dai Mubai smiled. "How else could I have obtained these immortal herbs and medicinal plants that helped everyone break through? To keep word from leaking out, I had no choice but to risk walking a razor's edge."
Dai Mubai then briefly explained what had happened. After hearing the story, they all clicked their tongues in wonder.
Bone Douluo sighed with feeling. "To think the mighty Poison Douluo actually died from his own poison! You might have triggered it, but it was still the poison inside his own body. Otherwise, how could you, a mere Soul Ancestor at the time, possibly have killed a Titled Douluo? Still, what a pity!"
After all, the man who had died was a long-renowned Titled Douluo, and the atmosphere in the hall grew somewhat heavy.
Dai Mubai had meant to ask about Tang San, but the conversation had unexpectedly veered toward Dugu Bo.
He immediately changed the subject.
