Chapter 29: Dugu Bo Admits Defeat
Chapter 29: Dugu Bo Admits Defeat
Because the way the ancient banyan tree moved through the Sunset Forest was quite imposing, and because it didn't suppress its aura to deter evildoers, it was a formidable force.
This makes the ancient banyan tree in the Sunset Forest look no different from a searchlight.
Although the intimidation efforts ceased upon reaching the valley.
However, the commotion he caused still caught the attention of the titled goalkeeper who lived in Sunset Forest.
Today is the full moon of the fifteenth of the month again. In order to alleviate his pain, Dugu Bo came directly to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, hoping to use the special spiritual energy of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well to suppress the pain in his body on the night of the full moon.
Unexpectedly, Gu Rong came with great force. Although she did not go to cause trouble for Dugu Bo, she ended up in a valley not far from Dugu Bo by chance.
This really terrified Dugu Bo, who was already in a lot of trouble.
If Gu Rong discovers that I'm having an attack, not only will he have something on me, but I might really lose my life in his hands.
So, for the sake of his own life, Dugu Bo still planned to come and see what was going on, and if possible, ask Gu Rong to make room for him.
After all, he is a retainer of the Heaven Dou Empire and an elder of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. They are both in the same camp, so they should give him face.
Then Dugu Bo took advantage of the fact that it was still dark before he arrived at the foot of the valley.
"bone……"
Just as Dugu Bo was about to greet Gu Rong and try to build a closer relationship, he saw Gu Rong turn her head and give him a fierce, chilling look.
Dugu Bo was startled by Gu Rong's frightening gaze and subconsciously took a step back, while also noticing Gu Xuan behind Gu Rong.
Although it was just a fleeting glimpse, it almost made Dugu Bo's eyes pop out of their sockets in astonishment.
What did he see?
He had met Gu Xuan before. After all, the Heaven Dou Empire only had a few titled Douluo with similar stances, and both sides had some understanding of each other's relatives.
After all, there are only four realms in the cultivation world: ant, young friend, fellow Daoist, and senior.
The main reason for the introduction is to elevate the status and realm of their own children in the future, so that they can reach the realm of minor friends and live in peace.
If Dugu Bo remembers correctly, this kid's name is Gu Xuan, and he just awakened his martial soul this year, right?
Because of Ning Rongrong's incident, Ning Fengzhi didn't dare to hold a grand awakening ceremony for Gu Xuan.
After all, his foundation was damaged, resulting in low talent. So what should he do?
But he still has some fragmented memories.
This kid is more than six years younger than my granddaughter, and he should have only recently awakened his martial soul this year.
But what did he see?
A yellow spirit ring spinning under his buttocks had already been refined.
This doesn't prove anything; it only shows that Gu Xuan is exceptionally talented.
But what about that purple soul ring that surrounds Gu Xuan?
He could accept being born with full soul power, and he had also heard of people being born at level 20.
But who is so kind as to start absorbing a thousand-year soul ring at the second ring level?
Something's not right. There's definitely something seriously wrong with the ancient banyan tree and the ancient pavilion.
Although Dugu Bo realized what was happening, he suddenly found himself in a terrible mess.
"Brother Gu Rong, I'm sorry, I still have medicine stewing at home, so I didn't see or hear anything. I'll be right back."
Dugu Bo wanted to play dumb, so he slowly moved his feet backward.
He's already gone astray and walked into a wolf's den. Having discovered such a huge secret, he might have to give up here today.
He really wanted to slap himself. Why was he so pathetic, running out here to seek attention?
Gu Rong was somewhat careless. After all, no one in Sunset Forest would dare to approach him under the pressure of a Title Douluo. In addition, he was momentarily distracted by thinking about Gu Xuan's brilliant future.
Otherwise, no matter how hard Dugu Bo thought about it, there was no way he could have escaped his senses and appeared behind him, and even witnessed such a shocking scene that shattered Dugu Bo's worldview and could very well have killed him.
Being stared down at by Gu Rong, Dugu Bo felt his whole body go numb, as if the air around him was like needles trying to pierce his body.
I will die, I will definitely die!
Dugu Bo's inner madness warned him to flee, but his reason forcefully controlled his body, allowing him to maintain his last shred of dignity.
How can a level 91 character escape from a level 96 Ancient Banyan Tree?
He might have some chance against Juhua Guan, but against Gu Rong, he had absolutely no chance of survival.
So it's not that he didn't want to run, but that he simply couldn't run.
"If I said it was a misunderstanding and I didn't see anything, would you believe me?"
Dugu Bo gave a bitter laugh.
Although he wanted to boast and make some grand pronouncements, the truth was that he didn't want to die.
What do you think?
Behind Gu Rong, pieces of pale bones emerged and slowly pieced together to form a ferocious bone dragon. Blue flames burned in the dragon's eyes as it quietly watched Dugu Bo.
At the same time, a special wave spread out, directly enveloping Gu Rong and Dugu Bo.
As Dugu Bo sensed the sudden fluctuations in the space, his expression grew even more bitter. This old guy was really bullying him.
If Gu Rong's soul power level were even slightly lower, he would have dared to be more assertive, but now...
"Name your conditions. I'll agree to anything that isn't too outrageous."
Dugu Bo had no choice but to lower his proud head.
He didn't really care whether he lived or died, but he hadn't found a way to cure the venom of the Emerald Green Serpent, and he didn't want Dugu Yan to end up like him.
Moreover, the fact that Gu Rong didn't immediately kill him meant that the matter was still negotiable.
But the conditions are unlikely to be favorable, given that his life is at stake.
It's also his fault for being so shameless, insisting on coming to see.
If Dugu Yan had Gu Xuan's talent, anyone who saw him would also kill him.
For no other reason than fear!
Only those who grow up can be called geniuses. How many geniuses have there been on the mainland in recent years? But how many of them have truly grown up?
It's common for major powers to target each other, and to assassinate each other's geniuses both openly and covertly.
Gu Xuan's innate full soul power was already enough to put him in dire straits. If he were to suddenly unleash a talent even stronger than innate full soul power, the assassins targeting him might not just be ordinary assassins, but assassins at the level of a Title Douluo.
After all, having innate full soul power is a qualification for a Limit Douluo. Who would want such a hidden threat to emerge from the opposing force?
This is why Gu Xuan didn't want to leave the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
At all times, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will always have at least one Title Douluo in charge.
Moreover, he had a good relationship with both of them; only a fool would leave the starting village before fully developing.
Seeing Dugu Bo admit defeat, Gu Rong couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth slightly.
