On the other side, Heaven Dou Royal Academy's dormitory, Yu Tianheng strode to the door of the room.

He reached out to open the door, and then he caught a glimpse of the note inserted in the crack of the door. He quickly took it out and checked it.

"Tian Heng, I don't know if grandpa is in the house today. It's getting late. If I don't come back tonight, it means I stayed at the house and slept. It depends on the situation tomorrow. If I don't come back, please help me ask for leave from instructor Qin Ming. Don't worry about it."

After reading it, I didn't think much, pinched the paper lightly, opened the door and walked in.

There was nothing to say all night. The next day, in the morning, Dugu Manor's residence, Dugu Bo strode into it.

"Master, the young lady came back yesterday afternoon. She seemed to have cried, and she didn't eat dinner. She stayed in the room and couldn't come out. When I went there this morning, there was no movement in the room, and it has been till now." The housekeeper hurriedly stepped forward to report.

Dugu Bo's face turned gloomy almost instantly. As shrewd as he was, he naturally thought that it must be related to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's reply.

The result was obvious and made my granddaughter feel sad.

"I know, go to the kitchen and prepare some food for me and Yan'er." He waved his hand and strode towards the backyard.

Soon, he came to the door of Dugu Yan's room, knocked on it gently, and shouted in a low voice, "Yan Yan, are you up?"

The voice of "Get up" came quickly. After a rustling sound, footsteps came, and then the door was opened.

I had just washed my face, and although the swelling in my eyes was gone, they were still a little red and slightly sunken, and my expression was a little sluggish. It seemed that I cried for a long time yesterday and didn't sleep well at night. Dugu Bo made a quick judgment, and the chill in his heart suddenly dropped to freezing point.

Yu Tianheng, Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. His eyes flickered slightly.

"Grandpa, come in and sit down first." Dugu Yan looked away, lowering his head slightly and whispered.

Dugu Bo nodded calmly and strode in.

He walked to the table and sat down, nodding slightly, "The reply from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan is here? Tell me, what is the reply?"

Dugu Yan's head suddenly buried even lower, he gritted his teeth and whispered, "I said that I can use Ten Thousand Year Strength-Type Soul Bone as my employer to settle the marriage."

After saying that, he hurriedly added, "This is the decision of the elders, and Tian Heng he can't change it."

"What the hell! Bang!" The table next to him was smashed to pieces on the spot. Dugu Bo stood up abruptly, startling Dugu Yan. He lowered his head, trembling, and did not dare to speak anymore. For the first time in his life, grandpa got so angry in front of her.

Dugu Bo looked coldly, looked directly at Dugu Yan, took a deep breath, lowered his voice and said coldly, "Yan Yan, grandpa will tell you clearly."

"Then Yu Tianheng, I was unhappy with him last time. Is he worthy of being the heir of a family?"

"I'm almost 20 years old. I can't make the decision with a 5000-year-old Soul Bone. I have to ask my elders first. Grandpa, I am a dignified Titled Douluo. Isn't it better to have a 5000-year-old Titled Douluo?" Is the Soul Bone worth anything? Besides, Grandpa, I am your granddaughter. Will you help me if you marry me? If you ask any vendor on the street, you can tell them, but he just doesn't understand!"

"For such a stupid and unopinionated man, how can you let grandpa trust you in his hands?"

"Also, Xiao Hai's words have already hinted clearly enough, right?"

"Even if he didn't understand that Soul Bone was used to save your life, he knew clearly that you were suffering from an old illness after you had been dating for so long, right? He was also present when you caught the cold and the poison last time, right?"

"Is he blind and didn't see the pain you felt when you had an attack? And you have suffered such pain since childhood? Could he not have thought of this?"

"And when he learned that there was a chance to cure your old illness, how did he behave? He immediately thought of writing a letter to ask his elders, was he here to make a joke?"

"I remember I said at least 5,000 years, right? At least, isn't that obvious?"

"Don't I just hope that he can show his responsibility as a man and a future husband and fight for you one or two more times? But what about him?"

"Write a letter, hand it in, then just wait and let fate take its course!"

"Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan has internal disagreements, and I, as an outsider, know about it. He is a direct descendant of the family, and he is an adult who is about to turn 20 years old. Don't you know? Now that you know it, have you ever thought that your request will be opposed by those who don't support his succession as the head of the family? Have you ever thought about going back to the family in person to fight for you who is sick and improve the cure rate?"

"No, not at all."

Dugu Bo The more he spoke, the colder his eyes became, "He still dares to say he loves you? He doesn't even value the life of his future wife and just leaves it to others to make the decision! Tell me, how dare Grandpa leave you in his hands?"

"His attention and concern for you, in Grandpa's opinion, are not even as good as Xiao Hai, an outsider who has just met, a child. He understood instantly at that time and could tell at a glance that I was testing, so he hinted at Yu Tianheng. Is this interesting enough for you?"

"Furthermore, that kid Xiao Hai just met you on the first day when he came to the academy. After learning about your condition, he immediately started researching a cure. Don't you think that he can easily come up with a solution that Grandpa has been unable to come up with for decades?"

"Have you ever thought about the energy and effort it took?"

"Ask yourself, can Yu Tianheng's effort in treating you be worth the effort of Xiao Hai?"

"A letter, just a damn letter!"

"And now, the reply from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Family is here. What do they mean? What do they think of me as Dugu Bo? Are you willing to give up your face just for a piece of Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone? Do you regret it later? When you break up one day, I will get a piece of Soul Bone for nothing? Grandpa, I am a dignified Titled Douluo, can't I even afford a piece of Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone?"

"Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone has arranged a marriage for me. Damn it, do they think I'm a fool? What do they think of my Dugu Bo granddaughter? Is she a commodity that can be bought and sold at will?"

"It's a shame they even brought it up!" The more he spoke, the angrier he became, his face even turning red.

"And that Yu Tianheng is even more useless! After receiving the reply, he didn't even think about resisting at all. He just told you the result and that was it!"

"I never thought about suppressing it for now, and then returning to the family to argue with reason."

"At the very least, it will allow me to see that he values you."

Speaking of this, as if he thought of something, his expression suddenly turned solemn, and he looked directly at Dugu Yan.

"Yan Yan, tell grandpa honestly, have you ever gone that far with that kid Yu Tianheng?"

In order to understand the poisons in himself and his family, apart from practicing, he basically spent the rest of his time studying poisons. He was really not very enthusiastic about matters between men and women.

To be honest, I really can't tell.

At this time, Dugu Yan's eyes were already red, and tears could not stop flowing over his eyes, flowing down his cheeks, finally converging on his pointed chin, and then falling to the ground. After hearing Dugu Bo's serious question, I felt no shyness, only sadness and confusion. To the furious grandfather Dugu Bo, I couldn't resist at all, so I subconsciously sobbed and replied truthfully.

"No, no"
