Chapter 66: After the Battle
Bone Douluo’s move was truly impossible to guard against.
He opened an Eighth Spirit Ability: Space Gate directly; he came when he wanted and left when he pleased.
Without some special means, one could only watch as Bone Douluo came and went as he pleased.
Dugu Bo’s Eighth Spirit Ability: Time Solidification could have had a chance to keep Bone Douluo there if used by surprise.
However, Dugu Bo had just used Eighth Spirit Ability: Time Solidification once, and his spirit power was now almost completely exhausted.
He could only watch as Bone Douluo took Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin and escaped.
High in the sky, Dugu Bo reverted to his human form. Although his face looked pale due to excessive consumption, his expression betrayed an irrepressible excitement.
He, Dugu Bo!
In a one-on-one battle, he had defeated Sword Douluo Chen Xin!
Although behind his victory was the full-force boost from Lu Chen.
But Chen Xin also had someone boosting him, and the one providing the boost was none other than Ning Fengzhi, who was known as the continent’s number one Support Soul Master.
By this logic, he, Dugu Bo, was no worse than Chen Xin.
Thinking of this, the corners of Dugu Bo’s mouth could not help but turn upward.
Today, he, the weakest among the Titled Douluo, had finally held his head high.
Immediately after, Dugu Bo descended to the ground. Now, his body felt empty, his spirit power completely exhausted.
After landing, he stepped firmly onto the ground and began to draw upon the power of the earth, rapidly recovering his depleted spirit power.
The power of the earth was vast and boundless; Dugu Bo recovered very quickly, and one could see his complexion returning to a healthy glow right before their eyes.
Dugu Bo marveled in his heart; he had to admit that the ability he obtained after absorbing the Earth Dragon Golden Melon was simply too practical.
Meanwhile, after the battle ended, Lu Chen, who had already exited the Blue Silver Avatar state, wrapped his arm around Dugu Yan’s waist and leaped through the forest a few times, arriving beside Dugu Bo.
Lu Chen set Dugu Yan down and smilingly congratulated Dugu Bo:
"Congratulations, Brother Dugu, for severely wounding Sword Douluo Chen Xin head-on. It is fortunate there were no spectators for today’s battle; otherwise, once the results of this fight spread throughout the Spirit Master’s world, Brother Dugu’s name would surely be even more renowned!"
Hearing this, Dugu Bo could no longer hold back his laughter. Happy as he was, he still spoke truthfully:
"Lan Chen, today is all thanks to you. I know my own situation; my true strength is actually not as good as Chen Xin’s."
"Being able to defeat Chen Xin head-on is all thanks to the boost you gave me."
Dugu Bo paused for a moment, then looked at Lu Chen with a serious expression:
"Lan Chen, today Ning Fengzhi, Gu Rong, and Chen Xin were clearly coming for you. Although they said it nicely on the surface, talking about inviting you to visit the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."
"But once you entered the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, there would be absolutely no chance of coming out alive."
"Even if they didn’t kill you immediately, they would definitely interrogate you for your secrets to obtain information about your Spirit and Spirit Ability, and so on."
"Although they retreated today, I have noted this grudge for you. I am indeed not confident in attacking the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School head-on, but with my methods, they will definitely not have it easy."
"Within ten days or half a month, I will make the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School obediently bow their heads and make Ning Fengzhi promise personally never to trouble you again."
In the past, Dugu Bo, this weakest Titled Douluo, would never have dared to provoke the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
After all, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School trio—Sword Douluo Chen Xin, Bone Douluo Gu Rong, and the continent’s number one Support Soul Master, Ning Fengzhi—were not people many dared to provoke across the entire Douluo Continent.
But that was all in the past!
Today, Dugu Bo defeating Chen Xin head-on greatly boosted his self-confidence. As long as he had Lu Chen’s support, Dugu Bo would no longer fear any opponent!
As for Lu Chen, hearing Dugu Bo’s words, he felt quite warm inside; Dugu Bo was genuinely looking out for him.
However, Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, and Gu Rong wanted his life today, and he did not intend to let this matter pass so easily.
A gentleman takes revenge, even ten years is not too late!
He had noted this grudge!
His Blue Silver Emperor Martial Soul had followed a support path from the very beginning. To seek revenge against the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, even if the Blue Silver Emperor Martial Soul were cultivated to a nine-ring Titled Douluo, it would be impossible to contend against Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, and Gu Rong.
But he still had a second Spirit!
Once he cultivated his second Spirit to the Titled Douluo level, that would be the beginning of his complete reckoning of the grudge!
For now, he still needed to endure for the time being.
Lu Chen smiled slightly and said:
"Then I will have to trouble you, Brother Dugu. Right now, I just want to Cultivate properly and strive to reach the Titled Douluo level as soon as possible."
Dugu Bo patted his chest and promised:
"Leave everything to me. With my protection in the future, I won’t let any Tom, Dick, or Harry come after you."
"Haha, today I defeated Chen Xin; this is a great joyous event that deserves a good celebration. Let’s go, back to Heaven Dou City, have a good meal, and a few drinks."
As his voice fell, Dugu Bo grabbed Lu Chen with one hand and Dugu Yan with the other, then soared into the air and flew toward Heaven Dou City.
On the way, Dugu Bo suddenly said:
"Once I have dealt with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, no one should dare to provoke me, and no one will dare to harm Yan Yan."
"Yan Yan, do you want to go back to Heaven Dou Imperial Academy to continue your studies?"
Hearing this, Dugu Yan turned her head to glance at Lu Chen and refused without hesitation, her tone carrying a hint of coquettishness as she said:
"Grandfather, I don’t want to go back to school. What is there to learn in the academy!"
"In the past, you always left me alone in the academy. Don’t even think about leaving me alone in the academy again."
"I want to stay by your side. You are a Titled Douluo; teaching me to Cultivate should be easy for you."
Dugu Bo felt a lump in his heart. In the past, he had to suppress the deadly poison, so he could only endure the heartache and leave Dugu Yan at the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy.
Now, just as Dugu Yan said, what the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy could teach, Dugu Bo, as a Titled Douluo, could teach just as well, perhaps even better.
Dugu Bo spoke in a low voice:
"Yan Yan, Grandfather will never leave you alone again. From now on, I will teach you personally; I want to pass on all my methods of using poison to you."
"I originally did not want to pass those methods on to you; deadly poison harms others and oneself, and I myself have been tortured until I am neither human nor ghost."
"Now it is better; we, grandfather and granddaughter, no longer need to suffer from the erosion of the deadly poison, and I can confidently and boldly pass some of my methods on to you."
Dugu Yan’s eyes lit up when she heard this. As Dugu Bo’s granddaughter, her best teacher was naturally Dugu Bo. Dugu Yan cheered and said:
"I will definitely learn it carefully!"
Dugu Bo was very happy; his methods finally had a successor and would not be lost in his hands.
Happy in his heart, Dugu Bo accelerated his speed and headed toward Heaven Dou City.
At this moment, Lu Chen swept his gaze toward a certain direction. Relying on his Blue Silver Domain, he sensed that at that location, two Titled Douluo had been watching from the shadows.
However, the other party seemed to have no ill intent, so he did not cause any extra trouble and acted as if he did not know they were there.
Lu Chen thought to himself:
"Who could it be? To be able to mobilize two Titled Douluo and pay attention to my and Dugu Bo’s whereabouts, aside from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, it could only be that Heaven Dou Crown Prince."
"Xue Qinghe, or rather, Qian Renxue! Then these two Titled Douluo might be Snake Lance Douluo and Porcupinefish Douluo."
"Tsk, it really never stops... The Douluo Continent is such a small place, with various forces mixed together; sometimes, even if you want to hide, you can’t."
At the same time, the two Titled Douluo hidden in the shadows, having witnessed the entire incident, also quickly left the place, preparing to return and report to their Young Lord.
