Chapter 16 The True Colors Are Revealed
"so……"
"Is it really true, Grandpa?"
"Have we really been poisoned by a deadly toxin I didn't know about?"
Dugu Yan looked at Dugu Bo and questioned him.
Dugu Bo's expression was solemn.
The pressure from Xue Di was immense.
It is like an unshakeable mountain.
Since reaching the Title Douluo realm, few people have been able to give Dugu Bo this feeling.
The woman in the white dress with an icy expression in front of me is terrifyingly strong!
For a moment, Dugu Bo's heart sank.
He didn't know what purpose this powerful person had in approaching him and his grandson, or why he had told Dugu Yan about this matter.
"Grandpa, say something!"
Seeing that Dugu Bo remained silent and did not answer her, Dugu Yan couldn't help but urge him on.
Seeing this, Dugu Bo knew that he could no longer hide the matter.
After letting out a soft sigh, he nodded and admitted:
"Yes, that's true."
"This is the fate of our Bilin family."
"You're still young. I didn't plan to tell you about this so early, so as not to put unnecessary pressure on you."
"But things don't always go as planned..."
Upon receiving confirmation from Dugu Bo, Dugu Yan turned pale.
Suddenly, something else came to mind.
The voice trembled:
"So, Grandpa..."
"My parents didn't actually die in an accident, but rather..."
"Um!"
Dugu Bo nodded heavily, his face grim.
Dugu Yan's question touched upon the memory he least wanted to revisit.
"Your parents..."
"He died from the venom of the Jade Phosphorus Serpent."
This is a source of sorrow that Dugu Bo could never erase throughout his life.
He gave a bitter laugh, a laugh filled with sorrow and desolation.
"Known to the world as the Poison Douluo, his skill in using poison is unparalleled on the continent."
"But who could possibly know?"
"The mighty Poison Douluo couldn't even cure his own poison, and even his son and daughter-in-law died tragically from it!"
"The venom of the Jade Scale Serpent is so potent!"
As Dugu Bo spoke, his voice became somewhat hysterical.
He roamed the continent, his pride and joy in the Azure Scale Serpent's venom, which was also a curse he was powerless against.
Dugu Yan's face grew paler and paler as she learned more information.
"That's really true..."
"Is our family cursed...?"
She was, after all, just a young girl.
After learning that he had been poisoned by the deadly poison that had taken his parents' lives, it was naturally difficult for him to remain calm.
Seeing Dugu Yan's expression, Dugu Bo felt extremely heartbroken.
This is why he didn't intend to tell Dugu Yan about this.
She is still too young.
As her grandfather, Dugu Bo didn't want her to be overwhelmed by the shadow of the deadly threat of snake venom so early on.
The pressure should be placed on him alone.
Even though he couldn't cure the Jade Scale Serpent venom in the end, he could at least let Dugu Yan have a wonderful, stress-free time.
He looked away and swallowed the words of comfort that were about to come out of his mouth.
Dugu Bo looked at Yu Shuangbai and Xue Di again.
His gaze was serious.
Because of the intimidating aura emanating from the Snow Empress, he was able to calmly ask a question, which was a rare occurrence for him:
"So, who exactly are you two?"
"How did you know that Yan Yan and I were poisoned?"
"Senior Dugu, who we are is not important."
Yu Shuangbai stepped forward, smiled slightly, and remained calm.
Even when facing the infamous Poison Douluo, he showed no fear whatsoever.
With Xue Di by my side, I felt incredibly safe.
Without Xue Di's absolute strength as leverage, Yu Shuangbai would not have been able to negotiate with Dugu Bo so easily.
After all, the person in front of us is no saint.
Dugu Bo's infamous reputation was built upon a series of bloody incidents.
However, with the Snow Empress as a guarantee of absolute combat power.
He can naturally avoid a lot of trouble.
In a way, the ruthlessness of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan also contributed to the success of Yu Shuangbai.
After all, it's not like they couldn't get the assist hunting spirit ring.
Yu Shuangbai would not drag her eight-year-old body alone to the far north to search for a soul ring.
He would not faint on the far northern ice plains, completing the transformation of his martial soul in the extreme cold.
She was taken away by the Snow Empress and became acquainted with her and the Ice Empress.
This provides an extra layer of protection at the level of a Limit Douluo.
"The important thing is that I have a way to resolve the snake venom threat in your and Dugu Yan's bodies."
These words struck Dugu Bo's heart like a heavy hammer blow.
His pupils suddenly contracted.
He spoke up almost instinctively and urgently:
Is this really true?
Dugu Bo's breathing became somewhat rapid.
It's not that he lacks composure.
Having spent over a hundred years in the world of Soul Masters, how could Dugu Bo's state of mind be easily disturbed?
But this matter was far too important to him.
To eliminate the threat of the venom of the Jade Scale Snake.
This short sentence encapsulates Dugu Bo's life's work.
The deadly poison that took away all his relatives, leaving only his granddaughter Dugu Yan, has always been an indelible shadow in Dugu Bo's heart.
Even after spending half his life on it, he still couldn't find a solution.
However, at this moment, Yu Shuangbai said that he could solve the snake venom threat on them.
How could Dugu Bo possibly remain calm under such circumstances?
He doesn't seem to care much about himself.
After all, it has lived for over a hundred years, so it has lived up to its potential.
But his granddaughter, Dugu Yan, did not.
Dugu Yan's talent is inferior to his, and she probably won't be able to suppress the snake venom for so many years by relying solely on her cultivation level like he did.
He is very likely to follow in the footsteps of his son and daughter-in-law.
As a devoted granddaughter-lover, Dugu Bo naturally found it hard to accept that his only relative had once again lost their life to snake venom before his very eyes.
Of course, he wouldn't completely lose his composure because of this.
If just anyone said something like that...
Dugu Bo's first reaction was to dismiss it with disdain.
but……
Yu Shuangbai is clearly no ordinary person.
He couldn't quite discern the strength of the Snow Empress beside him, but he was certain that she was definitely above him.
Dugu Bo had a strange intuition.
If he were to face off against Xue Di, he would definitely not last more than ten rounds.
Although it's just intuition, at their level, intuition is often exceptionally accurate.
There's no need to go to such lengths and deceive people of this caliber if you want to harm them.
and so……
Dugu Bo did not question it.
Instead, hope suddenly arose.
"Of course, I have no reason to lie to you, do I?"
Yu Shuangbai smiled slightly.
See the picture poorly.
He revealed his true purpose.
"I have come here only to make a deal with Senior Dugu."
"As long as Senior Dugu gives me what I need."
"Then I can take action to resolve the snake venom threat to you and Miss Dugu."
"I wonder what Senior Dugu thinks of this deal..."
What do you think?
