Hearing Dugu Bo boast, Li Mingzhu offered a timely compliment. "Senior, your cultivation is profound. In the art of poison, you stand unrivaled across the continent!"
"Indeed! Indeed!" Dugu Bo replied proudly.
Li Mingzhu's words struck straight at his heart, leaving Dugu Bo floating on air.
His granddaughter Dugu Yan might not know, but how could he himself be unaware?
Before his granddaughter, he was an all-powerful Titled Douluo. In truth, however, he knew perfectly well that he was the weakest among the Titled Douluo!
Li Mingzhu's words were not mindless flattery. He had struck precisely the right balance, giving Dugu Bo another angle from which to feel proud.
Dugu Bo was feeling rather pleased with himself. When it came to direct combat, he truly was lacking among the Titled Douluo, but in the use of poison, there was likely no one across the entire Douluo Continent who could surpass him.
That skill, unique to the Poison Douluo, was what he had taken pride in all his life.
"Boy, since you have such a discerning eye, I won't bully you. If you can hold this Poison Pill for a quarter of an hour, I'll consider it my loss."
"As the stakes, I'll grant you one request unconditionally, provided it lies within my power!"
Dugu Bo stroked the tip of his beard as he spoke with great enthusiasm.
Hearing this, Li Mingzhu felt even more delighted. He had never expected this additional windfall!
He immediately cupped his hands and smiled. "Senior Dugu, let's begin, then. I'd like to see the power of my flames as well."
Seeing that he was ready, Dugu Bo opened his palm, signaling that he could take it.
Li Mingzhu reached out with his right hand, cloaked in Dragon Flame, and grabbed straight for the Poison Pill
