"What happened? Why isn't Yanyan breathing? Did we fail?" Dugu Bo asked again, his voice filled with worry.
"I told you not to argue, why are you acting like a complete novice?" Qi Ling said helplessly, "Yan... Dugu Yan's current condition is called feigned death! Of course, her feigned death is quite special; all bodily functions have ceased, making it no different from real death!"
"If it weren't for the Life-Bound Divine Artifact I gave her, she would have truly died and never woken up again! But now, I can awaken her!"
As she spoke, under Dugu Bo's gaze, Qi Ling bit her finger, then held her blood in her mouth and fed it to Dugu Yan.
To awaken Dugu Yan at this moment, we must use vibrant life force to create an opportunity for her to awaken, and nothing is more full of life than Qi Ling, who has cultivated the Nine Revolutions True Dragon Art.
To Dugu Bo's astonishment, Dugu Yan actually began to move slowly. She slowly opened her eyes, looked at Qi Ling in front of her, and smiled, "It seems I succeeded, didn't I?"
"Yes, that's right, congratulations." Qi Ling smiled back at her.
After a period of rest, Dugu Yan was able to stand up on her own. Although her body was still a little stiff, she would be able to recover completely in no time.
At this moment, Dugu Yan has undergone tremendous changes compared to before! Having obtained the Woeful Poison Body, her already tall height has actually increased, her leg lines have become more slender, and her pair of jade feet are even more like ice sculptures.
At the same time, her hair color changed to dark green and grew much longer, seemingly reaching her legs, giving her a completely new charm.
What's most impressive is her eyes, which have transformed into vertical pupils resembling snake eyes, gleaming with a haughty and aloof light, as if she doesn't care about anything, acting like a queen.
Without a doubt, Dugu Yan possessed a fatal attraction for men at this moment, especially her queen-like noble and aloof temperament, which could maximize a man's desire to conquer.
" Yanyan, is it really you? How did you change like this?" Dugu Bo asked in surprise. It had only been a day since he last saw his granddaughter, and she seemed like a completely different person. How could Dugu Bo not be shocked?
"Is it beautiful, Grandpa?" Dugu Yan turned around with a smile and said, "It's all thanks to Qi Ling! I feel like I've really become much stronger!"
"Becoming stronger is natural; otherwise, wouldn't it be meaningless to pay such a high price?" Qi Ling said. "Moreover, if I'm not mistaken, you've changed more than just this! Feel your Soul Power."
Upon hearing Qi Ling's words, Dugu Yan immediately calmed down, sensed her own Soul Power, and then exclaimed in surprise, "Heavens! My Soul Power has reached level 39, and I feel like I'm about to break through to level 40!"
"Of course! Those three celestial herbs will bring you far more than just that!" Qi Ling laughed. "After you break through to the Soul Ancestor, your Soul Power will experience another period of explosive growth, reaching around level 45 before returning to normal."
Upon hearing that their strength would increase so terrifyingly, both Dugu Yan and Dugu Bo were shocked. This kind of cultivation speed was simply unimaginable!
" Qi Ling, thank you so much! I really don't know how to thank you enough!" Dugu Yan said excitedly.
"Haha, let's talk about that later. What you need to do now is rest and recover your physical and Soul Power first," Qi Ling said. "Old man, let's pack up and then set off."
After Qi Ling and Tang San went to tidy up, Dugu Bo immediately pulled Dugu Yan aside and whispered to her, " Yanyan, did anything happen between you two yesterday? You know, the kind of thing that should happen between a man and a woman..."
Dugu Yan pouted and said, "No, I... I didn't have time to show off..."
"Oh dear, what a pity!" Dugu Bo said regretfully, then stuffed something into Dugu Yan's hand. " Yanyan, remember, next time you have the chance, give him this! This is the result of Grandpa's years of research, I guarantee it will work!"
"I understand, Grandpa, don't worry!"
Qi Ling, who was studying herbs, suddenly felt a chill run down her spine and shivered. She wondered to herself, "Why do I have this ominous feeling?"
This time, Tang San and Qi Ling didn't empty the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. The main reason was that Qi Ling knew they would come back in the future, and the herbs would be fine left here, so they only took what they needed now.
Dugu Yan was sent back to the Heaven Dou Academy by Dugu Bo. Although she was extremely unwilling, the previous night had taken a toll on her physical strength more than she had imagined, and it was impossible for her not to rest.
After everything was settled, Qi Ling and Tang San took Dugu Bo to the Blue Tyrant Academy, which is now Shrek Academy.
Shrek Academy had already changed its school gate sign, and unlike its previous desolation, the number of students had increased significantly, indicating that Shrek had developed well in the past six months.
After being informed by the gatekeeper, Flender, the Grandmaster, Liu Erlong, and four other teachers—a total of seven people—quickly arrived from the academy.
This lineup of seven can be considered Shrek Academy's strongest lineup at present. Naturally, it's not just to welcome Qi Ling and Tang San, but more to guard against the unpredictable Dugu Bo.
Although they are facing a Titled Douluo, they can still pose a threat. Moreover, the Golden Iron Triangle's Martial Soul Fusion Skill has become even stronger, so at least holding him off shouldn't be a problem.
"Teacher!" Tang San saw Grandmaster and the others and quickly waved to stop them, saying, "My brother and I are back. Are you all alright?"
When the Grandmaster saw Tang San, he was naturally excited and wanted to step forward, but Flender stopped him and went forward first.
Although his Martial Soul was perfected, Grandmaster's strength was still the weakest among them. Flender did this to guard against Dugu Bo.
Seeing everyone's actions, Dugu Bo couldn't help but reveal a disdainful expression. So what if there are seven of you? Now that his illness has been cured, it wouldn't be difficult for him to slaughter everyone in Heaven Dou City.
" Grandmaster, Dean, you can rest assured. Senior Dugu has no ill intentions. He came with us this time specifically to serve as a senior advisor to our academy!" Qi Ling said from the side.
"What?!" Not only the Grandmaster, but everyone present exclaimed in surprise almost simultaneously after hearing Qi Ling's words!
Who is Dugu Bo? He is a true Titled Douluo. Even the Heaven Dou Academy, which is known as the number one academy, does not have a single Titled Douluo in charge!
" Qi Ling, are you telling the truth?" Flender swallowed hard, glancing at Dugu Bo with suspicion.
"Of course it's true, Dean. From now on, our Shrek Academy will have Titled Douluo presiding over it. Don't you feel incredibly proud?" Qi Ling said with a smile.
