Dugu Yan froze, stunned. "It can paralyze an opponent's nerves within a few seconds and affect their control over their body."
"Even if they cover their mouth and nose, it will seep into the body through the surface of the skin."
But when Dugu Yan looked at Chu Ye inside the poison fog, he seemed completely fine. He was actually still there, moving his body with perfect ease!
"Done talking?"
Dugu Yan subconsciously nodded blankly.
"If you're done, then get over here and take your beating!"
"First Spirit Ability, Divine Demon Twin Slashes, Light Slash!"
"A Thousand-Year Spirit Ring. H-how is that possible!" Dugu Yan stared in disbelief, but she still used all her Soul Power in time to defend herself.
"Ahhh!"
But it was still useless. Dugu Yan was blasted to the ground in one strike, completely losing her ability to fight and unable to move.
Chu Ye charged over aggressively, sat down right on Dugu Yan, raised his palm, and struck Dugu Yan hard on the backside!
Smack!~~
"Mm-ah!"
"You actually dare hit my..."
Smack!
"Mm-ah~"
"What wouldn't I dare do!"
"I told you to stay put and behave, but you wouldn't listen! This is what happens when you don't listen!" Chu Ye gritted his teeth and brought another palm down hard.
Smack~!
"Mm-ah!"
Dugu Yan screamed miserably.
"Yan Yan!!!"
"Brat, how dare you treat my beloved Granddaughter like this...! Stop right now!!!" Dugu Bo flew into a thunderous rage, roaring at Chu Ye in fury.
Dugu Bo, distracted because of Dugu Yan, gave Chrysanthemum Douluo a good opening, and Chrysanthemum Douluo successfully landed a blow on him.
"Old Poison, you'd better worry about yourself first." Chrysanthemum Douluo sneered and gave Chu Ye a thumbs-up.
Chu Ye ignored Poison Douluo's roaring completely and slapped Dugu Yan's backside again. "Bratty girl, still acting arrogant?"
Smack~!
Dugu Yan bit her lip and cursed, "You bastard! I'm going to kill you!"
"Still so stubborn, huh? Then I'll beat you until you submit!"
Smack smack smack smack smack!
"Ahhh!"
"Ahhhhh~!"
"No... no~ no~!!"
Dugu Yan screamed again and again. From her initial toughness and stubborn mouth, she finally became a little frightened from the beating. She bit her lip, tears wetting her eyes. "Stop hitting me, stop hitting me~ stop it~!"
"Now, can you stay put and behave?" Chu Ye stopped hitting her.
Dugu Yan pouted her lower lip, looking extremely pitiful and wronged. With a sob in her voice, she looked at the boy sitting on her and nodded. "Mm~"
"Outrageous! Outrageous! Brat! I'm going to kill you!"
Seeing his own Granddaughter pinned to the ground and beaten like this by Chu Ye, Poison Douluo completely erupted. Ignoring the risk of being gravely injured by Chrysanthemum Douluo, he charged toward Chu Ye to kill him.
Chrysanthemum Douluo naturally would not miss this chance. "Fifth Spirit Ability, Gathering of Cold Blossoms!"
Whoosh whoosh whoosh~
Pfft~
"Ahhhh~!!"
Blood burst from Poison Douluo as he was thoroughly wounded, but he ignored the pain and his injuries. Right now, he only wanted to save his Granddaughter and kill Chu Ye!
Terrifying poison-type energy directly lifted Chu Ye's and Dugu Yan's bodies into the air.
How could Chrysanthemum Douluo let Poison Douluo get what he wanted? He protected Chu Ye first.
Knowing he could no longer harm Chu Ye, Poison Douluo could only give up on killing him and quickly fled in panic with his Granddaughter!
His figure had already vanished, but Poison Douluo's voice, filled with killing intent, echoed through the forest. "Brat, no matter how highly Spirit Hall values you, I, Dugu Bo, will one day kill you with my own hands!!"
Chrysanthemum Douluo did not pursue him. With his strength, killing a heavily wounded Poison Douluo would still be rather difficult. If he kept chasing him, of course he could do it, but Poison Douluo could flee back to Heaven Dou City, where Prince Xue Xing would protect him.
Right now, Spirit Hall had not yet reached the point where it was time to sour relations with the Heaven Dou Empire.
Chrysanthemum Douluo patted Chu Ye's shoulder, giving him an overwhelming sense of security. "Don't worry, Xiao Ye. He won't get the chance to touch you."
"I'm not afraid, Elder Gu Yue. Let's go find a spirit ring." Chu Ye shrugged indifferently and did not take Dugu Bo's words before leaving too much to heart.
However, today he really had offended Poison Douluo to the end. If he went to Heaven Dou City in the future, he would have to be careful.
"Let's go!"
Chrysanthemum Douluo was in a great mood and continued taking Chu Ye to search for a suitable spirit ring.
On the other side, after Dugu Bo fled with his Granddaughter to a safe distance, he stopped and violently spat out a mouthful of blood, his expression extremely ugly.
He had originally wanted to use Chu Ye to make Chrysanthemum Douluo suffer, so he could win one back. In the end, his own Granddaughter had instead become the target used by Chrysanthemum Douluo, causing him to suffer a loss!
Poison Douluo was truly furious. He really had not expected that Chu Ye, with one ring, could defeat his Granddaughter, who had two!
He had truly lifted a rock only to smash his own foot. Dugu Bo felt unbearably stifled inside.
"Grandpa, are you all right~?" Dugu Yan asked with a worried face.
"Grandpa is fine. Yan Yan, you..." Poison Douluo felt extremely guilty inside.
Dugu Yan threw herself into Dugu Bo's arms and cried bitterly while covering her butt. "Wuwuwu, that guy hit my butt so hard it hurts to death~ I feel like, I feel like the skin on my butt was beaten open, wuwuwu!"
"Damn brat!" Dugu Bo roared helplessly, his eyes full of killing intent. "Yan Yan, don't worry. Grandpa will definitely get justice for you for today's grudge!"
Dugu Yan hated Chu Ye from then on as well. Even in the days to come, Chu Ye's face and the scene from today would often surface in her mind.
"Elder Gu Yue, were you injured in that fight just now?" Chu Ye asked with concern on the road to find a spirit ring.
Chrysanthemum Douluo smiled. "Hehe~ I'm fine. Just now, thanks to you, I fought that Old Poison many times, and this was the first time I managed to wound him so badly with such ease."
"That's good." Chu Ye smiled as well.
After this battle, the relationship between him and Chrysanthemum Douluo seemed to have grown a bit closer.
"If it weren't for the All-Poison Antidote Bibi Dong prepared for me in advance just now, facing Dugu Yan's poison, I really might have suffered a loss. Looks like I'll need to properly learn the Poison Cultivation Method from Bibi Dong in the future," Chu Ye thought.
He himself could not resist poison. If Poison Douluo found an opportunity in the future and he had to face him alone, knowing how to use poison would give him a few more measures of confidence.
On top of that, Tang San also used poison, so this counted as taking precautions in advance.
And Bibi Dong was actually a top expert in using poison. It was just that she rather disdained using poisons other than the toxicity of her own martial soul as a method.
Chu Ye withdrew his thoughts and began focusing on following Chrysanthemum Douluo deeper into the Star Dou Great Forest.
A long while later, the two of them finally arrived at the area between the outer region and the inner region.
There were already large numbers of spirit beasts here at the level of several thousand years.
Chrysanthemum Douluo casually caught one and brought it over for Chu Ye to take a look.
Chu Ye released the Sword of Gods and Demons to sense it, and a state of rejection immediately appeared. Its age was clearly too low!
"Elder Gu Yue, try increasing it by another thousand years."
"All right~"
Chrysanthemum Douluo went to catch another one, increasing the age by a thousand years each time. In the end, he stopped after catching one at six thousand years.
"This is fine, Elder Gu Yue. For my second ring, I want a six-thousand-year one." Chu Ye smiled.
"Hiss! Six or seven thousand years! You brat, you really are terrifying. Good. We'll go look for a suitable six-thousand-year spirit beast for you now."
After searching for two whole days, Chrysanthemum Douluo carried a large spirit beast and tossed it in front of Chu Ye.
