"Senior Dugu, please don't scare me."
"I'm easily startled, and if something bad happens, you'll have to take responsibility."
"My second spirit ring has nothing to do with whale glue, but whale glue can indeed enhance physical strength."
"As for the effect of whale glue, why don't you buy a piece and try it yourself? You just need to melt it with spirit power and eat it directly."
Lu Yuan's expression returned to calm as he looked at Dugu Bo and immediately spoke. His tone was neither humble nor overbearing, as if he wasn't worried about his safety at all.
"Nonsense. Do you think I don't know the physical requirements for a Spirit Master to absorb a thousand-year spirit ring? How could you have advanced to a thousand-year second ring without the help of whale glue?"
"Kid, be honest with me, or I won't hold back."
Dugu Bo's eyes became much colder, and his gaze towards Lu Yuan also held a hint of malevolence.
"I've told you the truth, Senior Dugu. If you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do."
"Instead, Senior Dugu, you're clearly on the verge of death, yet you still act so recklessly. Are you really not afraid of being held accountable after you die?"
"When I first met Senior Sister Dugu Yan, I was curious how the granddaughter of the esteemed Poison Douluo could be poisoned without knowing it. Now that I've met Senior, I understand."
"It turns out the poison on Senior Sister is a Legacy from Senior Dugu!"
"What a pity, such a vibrant young life!"
Lu Yuan looked at Dugu Bo, his eyes narrowed, and a hint of regret appeared on his face.
What Dugu Bo cared about most was undoubtedly his granddaughter, Dugu Yan.
Although provoking him with this carried some risk, Opportunity always came with risks.
"What!!!"
"Who told you about this!!!"
"Who gave you the courage to spout nonsense in front of me?"
A jade green spirit power surged into the sky, and Dugu Bo's body was filled with an unparalleled Aura.
Lu Yuan's vision went black, and when he looked up again, Dugu Bo had already appeared in front of him, his jade green eyes staring fixedly at Lu Yuan like a venomous snake.
Just being stared at like that, Lu Yuan felt a chill all over his body.
Feeling the Aura on Dugu Bo's body and his chilling gaze, Lu Yuan understood that he had stirred Dugu Bo's inner turmoil.
He knew that the real test was truly coming.
Whether he could make Dugu Bo his Dao Protector in the future, and even obtain all the Immortal Herbs from him, would depend entirely on his next answer.
"Whether I'm spouting nonsense, Senior, you should know yourself. As for how I know..."
"One can tell from Senior's hair color and fingertips. To be a Poison Douluo yet be restricted by one's own poison, it's truly laughable."
Listening to Lu Yuan's words, Dugu Bo's killing intent boiled within him.
Being restricted by his own Jade Phosphor Serpent Poison was his most significant secret.
Now, to have it spoken so confidently by a young brat, the shock filled even this Titled Douluo's heart with worry.
One must know that due to the poison, he had a period of weakness every month.
During this weak period, his combat power was arguably less than one-tenth of his peak. If his enemies knew about this, Dugu Bo dared not imagine the despair he would face.
"Kid, you're courting death!"
The phantom of a Jade Phosphor Serpent continuously appeared behind Dugu Bo, already showing a tendency to attack.
"I do have a way to treat Senior's poison, but it requires the help of some special medicinal ingredients!"
Lu Yuan, suppressed by Dugu Bo's Aura, felt as if he couldn't breathe.
Dugu Bo also made him deeply understand the immense gap in strength between himself and a Titled Douluo.
At this moment, Lu Yuan's desire to become stronger became even more intense.
"What!"
When Dugu Bo heard Lu Yuan's words, his body suddenly froze, and his Aura disappeared like a receding tide.
"What method do you have, kid, to help me resolve the poison in my body?"
"If you can truly resolve my problem, I will not only spare your life but also grant you three wishes."
Dugu Bo's gaze locked deeply onto Lu Yuan, somewhat anticipating that this mature brat would utter words that could change his destiny.
Because of the Jade Phosphor Serpent Poison, Dugu Bo had lost his parents, his wife, his son, and his daughter-in-law.
If it could truly be resolved, he was willing to exchange everything for it.
He didn't even need to be cured himself; as long as Yan Yan's Jade Phosphor Serpent Poison was removed, he would gladly die.
"To remove the poison from Senior's body, you must find a place called the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well."
"This is a treasure land where water and fire intertwine. In this treasure land grow countless rare Immortal Herbs, among which are things that can save Senior's life."
Seeing Dugu Bo release his pressure and make a promise, Lu Yuan no longer concealed anything and spoke directly.
"I don't know what an Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well is, but my herb garden is quite similar to what you described."
"Just follow me!"
Upon hearing Lu Yuan's words, Dugu Bo's eyes immediately gleamed, and he quickly spoke.
After speaking, he strode out of the cave. Lu Yuan didn't hesitate and quickly followed him towards the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well he had long anticipated.
Stepping out of the cave, his eyes immediately lit up, for a special area where ice and fire intertwined suddenly appeared before him.
This was the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well he had been longing for!
Dugu Bo ignored Lu Yuan's shocked expression and casually leaped directly from the cave, which was at least a hundred meters above the ground.
Lu Yuan no longer hesitated and, following suit, leaped downwards.
Dugu Bo had originally intended to see how Lu Yuan would react to a hundred-meter drop, but his sudden jump immediately made Dugu Bo's heart tighten.
He finally had hope of resolving his Jade Phosphor Serpent Poison; if this kid fell to his death, he would truly cry.
Just as he was about to fly to Lu Yuan's side to save him, his heart suddenly trembled again!
He saw Lu Yuan actually flying in mid-air!
That's right, he was flying.
Dugu Bo's heart was truly in turmoil at this moment. If not for his extraordinary composure, he would have lost his composure long ago.
How strong was this kid's Spirit!
His body was strengthened during meditation, he could fly now, and the power of his Spirit Ability was so excessive.
Lu Yuan didn't know Dugu Bo's astonished thoughts at this moment. After landing, he immediately headed towards the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
Dugu Bo also didn't forget the main business at this moment and quickly arrived at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well with Lu Yuan.
"Kid, is my herb garden what you call the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well?"
"The rare Immortal Herbs you mentioned must be these things growing on the ground."
"Use whatever you need. As long as you can save me, I'll even give you this herb garden!"
