Saving Dugu Yan

After rushing all the way, Yu Tianheng finally brought Liu Erlong to Dugu Bo's residence.

It was a quiet estate far from the main road of Heaven Dou City.

There were not many shops or pedestrians around the estate, and soldiers came by from time to time to patrol the area.

Above the estate's main gate hung a plaque bearing the two bold, vigorous characters: Dugu.

Upon arriving at Dugu Manor, Liu Erlong looked at Yu Tianheng, who now resembled a quail standing beside her. She flung him aside and stepped forward to knock on the door, her face filled with anguish.

After explaining the situation to the butler who answered the door,

the butler was so frightened that he nearly lost his wits as he hurried off to inform his master.

Dugu Bo had been waiting for his granddaughter to return for dinner when he heard that she had been poisoned.

He immediately could not sit still.

In a flash, he arrived at the main gate.

At first glance, he recognized Liu Erlong, whom he had met in Sunset Forest.

But Dugu Bo had no time to reminisce. He asked anxiously,

"Where's Yan Yan?! How is she?!"

"Your Excellency Dugu, we should talk on the way! Please come with me to Blue Tyrant Academy first!"

"Fine, I'll take you there! I want to see who dares bully my Yan Yan like this! Do they think the Dugu Family has no one left?!!"

Dugu Bo's aged face was filled with rage.

Ever since his son had died from his poisonous venom, Dugu Yan had become his very life. Whoever dared touch her, he would risk his life against them!

As Dugu Bo fully unleashed the aura of a Titled Douluo, Liu Erlong's face turned even paler.

Then, Dugu Bo swiftly headed toward Blue Tyrant Academy with Liu Erlong, completely failing to notice Yu Tianheng standing beside them like a quail.

Though Liu Erlong noticed him, she could not say much and could only remain silent. After all, Dugu Yan was more important right now.

Ignored by Dugu Bo, Yu Tianheng watched as Dugu Bo and his aunt went away.

He let out a helpless sigh.

He had intended to return to Blue Tyrant Academy, but after reconsidering, he turned and headed toward his family instead.

"Since His Excellency Dugu has gone over, Yan Zi should be fine. I won't go there and give His Excellency Dugu another reason to trouble me.

"Besides, Yan Zi is still unconscious, so she probably can't pursue me either. There's no point wasting the effort. I should go back and cultivate sooner."

Meanwhile, in a room at Blue Tyrant Academy, Dugu Yan gradually regained consciousness and slowly opened her eyes. The first thing she saw was Xiao Yu standing beside her, his face rather pale.

Seeing this, Dugu Yan's heart sank, and an astonished look appeared on her face.

"Little Brother, what happened to you?!"

"Sister Yan Yan, you... you... you're finally awake. It's good that you're awake..."

In a daze, after saying this, the purple spirit ring circling beneath Xiao Yu's feet dissipated. His Soul Power was completely depleted, and he fell straight into Dugu Yan's arms.

Sleeping Dragon, which had just released its final Bright Breath, also dissipated at that moment.

"Little Brother, what's wrong? What's wrong with you?!"

Seeing Xiao Yu unconscious against her chest, one hand still resting on her thigh, Dugu Yan's face flashed with panic.

She did not know what to do.

What exactly had happened?

But when she felt that the condition within her body had actually improved somewhat after that ball of light entered her, a shocked expression appeared on Dugu Yan's face.

"Your Excellency Dugu, that's what happened. Please hurry in and check on Miss Yan Yan."

Outside the door, Dugu Bo had already returned to Blue Tyrant Academy with Liu Erlong, and Liu Erlong had explained what had happened.

Dugu Bo immediately pushed open the door in a panic. However, the sight on the bed made him unable to suppress his aura any longer, and he roared in fury,

"Yan Yan, how are you... You... You bastard! How dare you take advantage of my granddaughter!!!"

The moment he saw Xiao Yu lying atop Dugu Yan, Dugu Bo flew into a rage, fiercely protective of his granddaughter.

His aged hands were immediately covered in scales formed from Jade Python Poison.

Then he charged toward Xiao Yu.

When Dugu Yan saw this, she hurriedly used her body to shield Xiao Yu and stopped her Grandfather from attacking!

"Grandfather!! Stop!!!"

Soon, under Dugu Yan's obstruction, Dugu Bo reluctantly stopped. He restrained the terrifying aura around him, but the killing intent in his eyes could not be drawn away from Xiao Yu.

Especially when he saw his own granddaughter holding a man so intimately, his fury only grew.

He had thought Xiao Yu was an upright gentleman and had intended to get along well with him, but he had never expected him to be such a frivolous person!

However, after listening to his granddaughter explain the details, Dugu Bo finally realized what had happened and let out a relieved breath.

So that was what had happened.

He had been too impulsive.

Before long, Xiao Yu, who had fallen unconscious after exhausting all his Soul Power by repeatedly using his First Spirit Skill, hazily felt the Soul Power that had once been depleted within him rapidly recovering.

As Soul Power began flowing through his body again, Xiao Yu slowly opened his eyes.

"Dugu... Senior Dugu, you're here... Sister Yan Yan, she... she's alright, isn't she?"

Hearing that Xiao Yu's first question upon waking was about his granddaughter, with no concern at all for his own condition, Dugu Bo's previously cold heart softened.

What a good child. He had nearly committed a terrible mistake.

If he had killed him because of a misunderstanding, Yan Yan would have hated him for the rest of her life.

"I know everything that happened. Thanks to your help, Yan Yan is already fine. On the contrary, you exhausted your Soul Power helping her, so you should rest properly first.

"But I truly underestimated you. If your teacher hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known that you had used your First Spirit Skill so many times. You're impressive, kid."

Seeing that Xiao Yu had awakened, Dugu Bo finally withdrew the hand he had placed on Xiao Yu's wrist to transfer Soul Power to him.

When he saw that Xiao Yu's Soul Power had been depleted, Dugu Bo had transferred some Soul Power to help him recover.

During their conversation afterward, Dugu Bo also heard from Liu Erlong that Xiao Yu had been continuously using his First Spirit Skill to ease her pain ever since he had separated from Dugu Bo.

He had only collapsed after arriving here.

Even Dugu Bo could not help feeling astonished by such formidable Soul Power reserves, especially since Xiao Yu was still only a Soul Master.
