Chapter 72

Gu Xuan exposed the backs of his hands in front of Du Gu Yan and Dugu Bo, shook them, then explained: "Just some special opportunities; for some reasons I cannot explain them to you now, but rest assured, this thing is beneficial to me."

Gu Xuan, Ice Fire Dragon King

Ning Fengzhi, Gu Rong

Ice Fire Dragon King

It would be better to wait for a good time and explain everything at once.

Gu Xuan, Dugu Bo, deity

But actually it doesn't matter, after all I'm already with Du Gu Yan, and now Dugu Bo is also considered bound to me; even if Dugu Bo currently has no plans to join any faction, it's fine, after all there's still plenty of time, and I've only been in the Binghuo Liangyi Yan for a week.

Gu Xuan, soul power, Eight-cornered Profound Ice Grass, Flaming Apricot Delicate Herb, Ice Fire Yin-Yang Eye, Ice Fire Dragon King

Although the Ice and Fire Dragon King urged him to compress his soul power to temper his physique, given his current cultivation speed, even if he compresses soul power while tempering his body, his cultivation speed remains not slow.

foundation, External Plugin

Gu Xuan temporarily didn't want to explain, so Dugu Bo and Du Gu Yan naturally wouldn't ask further, after all this is also Gu Xuan's opportunity, or perhaps it's because of some reason that he cannot say.

Du Gu Yan was also quite helpless, pulling Gu Xuan's hand and saying helplessly: "Alright..."

Gu Xuan rubbed her head, then said: "It's just not convenient to say now; I'll tell you later."

Gu Xuan, Dugu Bo

"However, before that, I need to tell you and Yan Yan something."

Dugu Bo nodded: "What matter?"

Gu Xuan, Dugu Bo, Du Gu Yan, Emerald Scale Snake

Gu Xuan, Dugu Bo, Du Gu Yan, Emerald Scale Snake, poison pill, soul bone

Listening to Gu Xuan's words, Dugu Bo's eyes brightened slightly, as if he had thought of something, and I heard him say: "I have the poison pill; after I broke through rank seventy, I could no longer endure the snake venom in my body, so I refined it into a poison pill, and most of the toxin produced later also entered the poison pill. At first I experimented based on the poison pills of snake-type soul beasts, and only then did I succeed."

Hearing Dugu Bo's words, Gu Xuan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said: "Grandfather Dugu, why don't you refine all the toxin in your body into the poison pill?"

Dugu Bo smiled helplessly and replied: "I have indeed done that before; however, even after condensing the poison pill, it still cannot completely block the snake venom's erosion of the body, but it greatly slows the damage the snake venom inflicts on the body, and it is precisely because I condensed the poison pill that I got the chance to break through to Titled Douluo."

Xiao Xuan

Hearing Dugu Bo's words, Gu Xuan smiled faintly and said: "Grandfather Dugu, I can definitely tell you this method is feasible; however, even if the toxin is stored in the soul bone, the amount of toxin a single soul bone can store is limited, and it will eventually fill up, unless there is a hundred-thousand-year soul bone to serve as a container."

Dugu Bo, soul bone, ten-thousand-year soul bone, Medusa's Skull

Du Gu Yan

Moreover, given Du Gu Yan's current strength, she cannot condense a poison pill either, so isn't there no way to resolve this?

Gu Xuan, Yan Jie

"You would then transfer all the toxin in your body into the soul bone and poison pill, letting them balance each other; that way, when I clear the toxin from your body, the problem wouldn't be big."

Saying this, Gu Xuan chuckled: "Grandfather Dugu, you surely aren't lacking a soul bone, are you?"

Dugu Bo, Gu Xuan, Yan Yan

Gu Xuan, Du Gu Yan, Dugu Bo, sea viper, thirty-five thousand years

Hearing this, Du Gu Yan and Dugu Bo couldn't help but their eyes lit up: "A thirty-five-thousand-year soul bone? You're just giving it away like that?"

Du Gu Yan's heart at this moment could no longer be described as merely moved; she understood the preciousness of a soul bone better than anyone, after all her grandfather is a Titled Douluo, so her knowledge in this area is not lacking.

And Dugu Bo? He himself possesses a soul bone, so he understands its rarity and importance even more clearly; Gu Xuan actually is willing to just give it directly to Du Gu Yan?

Dugu Bo, Du Gu Yan

It's not that Dugu Bo lacks confidence in his granddaughter's charm; it's that a soul bone is simply too tempting.

He has seen many people, even blood brothers, who turned on each other over a thousand-year soul bone.

Dugu Bo, Gu Xuan

Gu Xuan, Du Gu Yan, Dugu Bo, sect, Seven Treasure Glazed Sect

Hearing this, Dugu Bo's eyes also brightened; having Gu Xuan as his grandson-in-law naturally makes him happy, not to mention Gu Xuan's character and talent—just his home sect, the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect, is already enough to make ninety-nine percent of people look up to it.

Top Three Sects

Dugu Bo, Gu Xuan, Old Bone Dragon

Compared to Dugu Bo, Du Gu Yan at this moment became a bit shy, hearing that she would soon meet the parents, her two jade hands clasped together, unconsciously starting to fiddle with her fingers.

Gu Xuan, immortal-grade medicinal herbs

Hearing this, Dugu Bo said Gu Xuan could take whatever he wanted, since Gu Xuan was the first to outrageously give a soul bone, so what's the problem with taking a few things now?

Moreover, this way he wouldn't be going empty-handed, after all the Binghuo Liangyi Yan is still his medicinal garden; although he doesn't recognize the things inside, they nonetheless come from his place.

Gu Xuan, Dugu Bo, immortal-grade medicinal herbs

Du Gu Yan then suddenly clung to Gu Xuan like a little kitten, asking questions left and right.

Gu Xuan, dad and mom, Gu Rong, Ning Fengzhi

As for these questions, Gu Xuan was naturally somewhat helpless, but he answered them one by one.

Moreover, Du Gu Yan in this state was too cute, making Gu Xuan unable to resist teasing her a little.

Gu Xuan, Dugu Bo, Du Gu Yan, Sunset Forest, carriage, Heavenly Battle City

Therefore, Dugu Bo requested to rest one night in Heavenly Fighting City and go again the next morning.

Gu Xuan naturally expressed helplessness about this, but after all he wasn't returning home alone, so he simply decided to wait an extra night.
