Chapter 77: Distributing Immortal Herbs (Seeking follows, monthly votes, and tips)

Currently, Dugu Yan's cultivation level is only one rank lower than Yu Tianheng's. After absorbing the Immortal Herb, she will surely surpass him.

By then, as long as the secret of the Immortal Herb is kept, Yu Tianheng will certainly leave Dugu Yan.

As for Dugu Bo, he naturally did not want his granddaughter to fall into heartbreak, so he thought of letting Wu Qi seamlessly step in.

Wu Qi hurriedly waved his hands, "Old man, how many years older than me is Dugu Yan? I can't handle that."

Not giving the other party a chance to continue, he immediately ended the conversation in the name of cultivation.

……

Early the next morning.

Wu Qi stepped onto the stairs of the Tiandou Huangjia Xueyuan.

Sensing his aura, the Three Education Committees appeared immediately.

"What, do you think this old man doesn't keep his word?" Dugu Bo was the first to "make trouble."

Meng Shenji gave an awkward smile and explained, "Your Excellency Dugu has misunderstood. This old man truly missed Wu Qi, missed him dearly. Now that he has returned, naturally I had to see him at the first opportunity."

Zhilin Hun Douluo took the opportunity to say, "Little Wu, in the month or so that you were away, Imperial Fighting Team Two was almost at a standstill."

"Since you are back, we must add some burden to you; hurry up and get the team organized."

Wu Qi cupped his fists toward the Three Education Committees and agreed to the matter.

Seeing that Dugu Bo was not looking for trouble, the Three Education Committees exchanged a few pleasantries and then took their leave.

Before leaving, Meng Shenji added, "Your Excellency Dugu, Yan Zi is out with the team for Spirit Fighting training under the leadership of Teacher Qin; she will not return to the academy in the short term, so please make yourself at home."

"Understood," Dugu Bo replied lazily.

On this trip, besides coming to find Dugu Yan, he also had to stand in support of Wu Qi.

Wu Qi had said he wanted to win over the two geniuses of the Fire Family; with him stepping in, he figured Huo Lie would not dare to make exorbitant demands.

……

When Wu Qi entered the academy, he happened to be spotted by Wu Qin, who immediately spread the news of his return throughout the academy.

Qiangu Changkong and Ning Rongrong received the news immediately, and before Wu Qi could even return to his dormitory, the two of them sought him out first.

"You two, can't you be a bit more reserved?" Wu Qi said with annoyance.

"Let me introduce you; this is the senior Poison Douluo, Dugu Bo."

"Greetings, Senior," the two bowed in salute.

At the same time, they could not help but feel curious.

How exactly did Wu Qi persuade Dugu Bo to follow him around?

One must know that every Title Douluo is a proud existence; how could they possibly condescend to this extent!

Wu Qi did not explain clearly, only slightly revealing his soul power aura.

"This is... a Soul Ancestor?"

Qiangu Changkong had seen many Soul Ancestors and was not unfamiliar with this aura.

Now, he finally confirmed that Wu Qi had truly gone to Dugu Bo to seek an opportunity.

But what kind of opportunity could allow a Spirit Master to break through so many ranks in a short time?

"Let's go, we'll talk when we get back to the dormitory."

On the way, Wu Qi was also thinking about whether or not to give the Immortal Herb to Ning Rongrong.

Currently, Ning Fengzhi's attitude is unclear; if Ning Rongrong's martial soul evolves and the other party goes back on their word, wouldn't that be aiding the enemy?

Upon careful consideration, Wu Qi felt that Ning Fengzhi might not have a choice.

In the original timeline, Ning Fengzhi invested everything in Tang San, mainly to befriend Tang Hao and even the Clear Sky Sect behind him.

Previously, Ning Rongrong inadvertently revealed that Ning Fengzhi no longer held any illusions about the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family, and the alliance of the Upper Three Sects had collapsed on its own.

Without a partner for cooperation, the probability of successfully winning over Ning Fengzhi by taking this opportunity is very high.

Thinking of this, upon arriving at the dormitory, Wu Qi instructed, "Old man, please keep watch in the surroundings for a while; don't let anyone come near."

Entering the room, Qiangu Changkong kept winking toward the door, "Damn, Brother Wu, what exactly did you do to make a powerhouse like the Poison Douluo follow your orders?"

Ning Rongrong was equally curious.

Rumors on the continent say that Dugu Bo is unruly and gives no one face; how could he easily listen to the arrangements of a junior?

There must be a hidden story here.

Wu Qi spread his hands, "Senior Dugu Bo and I have a pure friendship; friends are just helping each other out."

Straightening his expression, he continued, "Let's talk business. On this trip, the old man and I found a treasure land and harvested quite a few Immortal Herbs. It's just a pity that after we took the medicinal herbs, that treasure land was completely ruined."

Wu Qi did not explain the truth, naturally fearing that the two would leak the news.

The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well is a strategic location; if the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect found out, they would inevitably try to seize it by force.

As for the Consecration Hall, they might follow his subjective opinion, but in private, they would also want to take the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well for themselves.

Besides, the Consecration Hall is not airtight; once Bibi Dong finds out, the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well will surely be lost.

Ning Rongrong exclaimed that it was a pity and did not pursue the matter further.

Qiangu Changkong might have guessed Wu Qi's thoughts, but the two were close friends, and they would not expose each other.

As he spoke, Wu Qi placed an Immortal Herb on the table.

For Qiangu Changkong, both fire-attribute and physique-enhancing Immortal Herbs were suitable for him.

Wu Qi chose the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum for him, which, after absorption, could greatly enhance his physique.

"Brother Wu, great kindness needs no thanks. If you need your brother in the future, just say the word," Qiangu Changkong said solemnly.

Wu Qi kicked him, "What, if I didn't give you an Immortal Herb, we wouldn't be brothers?"

Qiangu Changkong scratched his head and took the Immortal Herb with a chuckle.

"When taking it, use your soul power to guide the medicinal energy into your body; do not build up any psychological resistance."

Qiangu Changkong nodded earnestly, then found a quiet room in Wu Qi's dormitory to go into seclusion and absorb the Immortal Herb.

When Wu Qi took out the Qiluo Tulip, the room was instantly filled with a faint, fragrant scent.

"This item is called the Qiluo Tulip; it absorbs the luster of the sun and moon as it grows, containing an aura of grace and luxury. Rongrong, this item will be of immense help to you; take it and absorb it. Who knows, your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda martial soul might even undergo Martial Soul Evolution because of it."

"It can make a martial soul evolve?" A flash of brilliance crossed Ning Rongrong's eyes as she took the Immortal Herb into her hands.

Immortal Herbs also have different grades, and the Qiluo Tulip is definitely among the best of them; in contrast, the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum can only reach a middle grade at most.

"Rongrong, go and absorb it; I will stand guard for you. After you absorb the Immortal Herb, your soul power level will definitely break through to level thirty, and then we will take you to hunt for a soul ring."

"Thank you, Brother Wu Qi."

After saying her thanks, Ning Rongrong entered another room and began to absorb the Immortal Herb.

A moment later, Dugu Bo walked in.

"Their talents are all quite good, especially that little girl from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. Having absorbed an Immortal Herb, her future achievements will be limitless."

Dugu Bo felt a moment of trance.

He had discovered the existence of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well a long time ago; if not for that, he would never have been able to withstand the invasion of his martial soul's poison.

It was just a pity that he had once sat upon a mountain of gold without realizing it, causing him to miss the best opportunity to absorb the Immortal Herbs.

"Old man, I have something I need to tell you; I am worried that Dugu Yan will be at a disadvantage."

Dugu Bo put away his thoughts; since it concerned his granddaughter, he had to listen carefully.
