He couldn't possibly let a Light Goddess Butterfly be paired with the creepy Human-Faced Demon Spider's External Spirit Bone, could he?
Just imagining the scene was unsettling, making his scalp crawl.
Chen Shenge shook his head, banishing the image from his mind.
This External Spirit Bone was truly tasteless, yet it was a pity to discard it.
Should he sell it?
His daughter wasn't short on money; she didn't need it at all.
Then there was only one option left: give it away.
Who should he give it to?
Xiao Wu? Zhuqing? Rongrong?
These three were each more unsuitable than the last. A beautiful young girl paired with a terrifying External Spirit Bone; the sight was too much to bear.
Suddenly.
Chen Shenge suddenly thought of something, "I remember Dugu Bo is poisonous, right? He relies on the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well to survive."
"His granddaughter, Dugu Yan, also suffers from severe poison. If she had this Human-Faced Demon Spider External Spirit Bone, perhaps it could cure her."
Undoubtedly, giving the Human-Faced Demon Spider External Spirit Bone to Dugu Yan was the best choice and outcome.
It's just that their relationship wasn't at that stage yet!
Chen Shenge narrowed his eyes, his hands clasped behind his back as he looked up at the sky, "Whether you can obtain the Human-Faced Demon Spider External Spirit Bone depends on your own fortune."
This wasn't something he should interfere with; he didn't want to force it on his daughter.
Chen Shenge didn't want to become the person he once hated, and wanted to give his daughter a relatively good family environment.
He would let things take their course as much as possible.
He would be a safe haven, offering help when needed.
The Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.
Dugu Yan felt the unstable temperature of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, and couldn't help but wonder why her grandfather had brought her here.
"Grandfather, what are we doing here?"
Dugu Bo sighed deeply, no longer choosing to hide the truth, and revealed it.
"Yan'yan, you've always wondered why Grandpa is always in the Sunset Forest, haven't you?"
"This is the answer."
"Our Martial Soul, the Jade Phosphorous Serpent, has an inherent weakness. As your soul power level increases, the toxins in your body also increase."
"Once they erupt, it means certain death."
"Grandpa here, I'm old and can't suppress the toxins. I had to find this treasure, the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, to use the power of ice and fire to suppress the toxins from erupting."
"What…" Dugu Yan opened her eyes wide, covered her mouth with her small hands, and looked incredulous, her body retreating repeatedly.
"Yan'yan, your situation is even more serious than Grandpa's was back then."
"That's why I brought you to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, to suppress the toxins in advance and avoid them spreading throughout your body like they did with Grandpa."
"Grandfather…" Dugu Yan's eyes shimmered with tears, "Then are you…"
"There's no need for you to worry about your grandfather. With the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well suppressing the toxins, living for another ten years isn't a problem."
"But before that, Yanyan, you need to find a good person to rely on."
"No, Grandfather, I only want you, that's enough." Dugu Yan sobbed, throwing herself into Dugu Bo's arms.
"Yanyan, you're all grown up now, and you're still crying like this."
Dugu Bo chuckled, gently stroking her hair.
Time flew by, he hadn't expected his granddaughter to grow into such a graceful young woman.
"I don't care, in front of Grandfather, I'm just a child who hasn't grown up." Dugu Yan opened her big eyes, coquettishly acting in Dugu Bo's arms.
"Good, good, good."
Dugu Bo's face was filled with smiles on the surface, but he was actually deeply worried, concerned about the poison affecting his granddaughter.
If only there was a Celestial Herb for detoxification or something else.
Thinking of Celestial Herbs, Dugu Bo felt disheartened.
Qingling had taken all the Celestial Herbs from the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, not a single one remained.
But even if there were some left, Dugu Bo wouldn't dare to let his granddaughter consume them. Who knew what effects they might have?
What if they were highly poisonous?
Wouldn't that just make Yan Yan's condition, which already had poison, even worse?
Dugu Bo sighed inwardly, and at that moment, a bold idea inexplicably popped into his head.
Maybe I should go and ask Qingling?
He thought to do it before she left the Sunset Forest, regardless of a Title Douluo's dignity, just to ask her to help his granddaughter.
At the same time, Dugu Bo considered the possibility of being rejected.
After all, why would they help you?
Helping you is a favor; not helping is their duty.
"Yan'Yan, wait for me here. I'll be right back."
"Grandpa, where are you going?" Dugu Yan sensed something, feeling that this trip wouldn't be good for her grandfather.
Dugu Bo forced a smile. "Nothing much, just remembered I have something else to take care of. Don't worry, Yan'Yan, everything will be fine."
With that said, Dugu Bo soared into the sky, flying towards the direction of the earlier black light.
A Title Douluo at full speed quickly spotted Chen Shenge being lifted high by a swarm of butterflies, and not far away, a Human-Faced Demon Spider that was utterly dead.
Dugu Bo's arrival caught Chen Shenge's attention. "Senior, why are you back?"
Seeing Dugu Bo's hurried appearance, she knew he had important business.
The next moment, Chen Qingling's eyes widened, shocked by Dugu Bo's actions.
Dugu Bo, disregarding the dignity of a Title Douluo, knelt directly in front of Chen Qingling.
"Senior, what... what are you doing? Why are you kneeling to me? Get up quickly!"
Dugu Bo shook his head, "Before anything else, I want to implore Qingling to lend a hand and help my granddaughter."
"Help your granddaughter? Dugu Yan?"
Chen Qingling looked puzzled, what could a Title Douluo not handle?
These people were the very strongest on the continent, couldn't they solve it, and they needed a Soul Ancestor like her?
"Yes... my Martial Soul has an inherent weakness..."
Dugu Bo immediately relayed the exact information to Chen Shenge.
"So, Senior, you want me to produce the Celestial Herbs to detoxify?"
Chen Shenge's eyes flickered, a faint smile gracing her face, laced with a hint of sorrow.
She quickly helped Dugu Bo, who was kneeling on the ground, to his feet.
"I know… I understand…"
"Who wouldn't want their loved ones to live better lives?"
"So… Qingling, you…" Dugu Bo cautiously began to speak.
Chen Shenge's eyes narrowed in a smile, like a crescent moon, "Leave this matter to me. Don't worry, I will never stand idly by!"
"My prime years shouldn't be cut short. I don't want to look back in the future and see those chasing after me as nothing but skeletons."
Qingling's mind stirred, communicating with her father.
"Father?"
"Father! Do you know of any Celestial Herbs that can detoxify?"
Soon, Chen Shenge's voice came, "No Celestial Herbs have the property of being poisonous."
Qingling, who had been smiling, instantly froze. She hadn't expected that the Celestial Herbs wouldn't have any detoxification properties.
Doesn't that…
Mean Dugu Yan is going to die young?
No way!
Absolutely not!
Qingling couldn't accept it.
Dugu Bo, who was standing to the side, clearly noticed Qingling's emotional change and immediately felt that something was wrong.
"What's wrong..."
Qingling bit her teeth and lowered her head, "My father said that none of the Celestial Herbs have the effect of detoxifying."
