Chapter 24: You damn yellow-haired bastard, you really ought to die!

Not right, feeling extremely off.

This isn't an ordinary candy pill, but a candy pill from Wang Wei's poetry. (Bai Ran: Could it be that this isn't a candy pill but an elixir?)

Du Gu Bo felt his whole body starting to get hot.

"You brat, did you put aphrodisiac herb in this?"

Feeling the strange sensation from his body, Du Gu Bo glared fiercely at Bai Ran.

In a certain sense, the aphrodisiac herb is not a poison.

However, the aphrodisiac effect of this thing cannot be eliminated even by a Title Douluo.

After all, the medicinal effect is directly merged into soul power; using soul power to dispel it only intensifies its activation.

Du Gu Bo said he's already an eighty- or ninety-year-old old comrade; giving him this stuff, you little brat are really too much.

Besides, out in the wilderness there's nowhere to vent; could it be that the manual skill I haven't practiced in years has to be taken up again?

"Aphrodisiac herb? What is that?"

Bai Ran knows nothing about herbal medicine; he doesn't even know what the aphrodisiac herb looks like.

This elixir is entirely based on the Human Emperor Banner's preference.

Speaking of which, if what Du Gu Bo said is true and it contains that aphrodisiac herb, should Bai Ran eat it or not?

If he eats it, he'll feel uncomfortable holding it in; if he doesn't, there's so much immortal herb essence—eating some would at least raise his soul power by ten levels, a shame to waste.

"Um, wait, this feeling.

"Mmm~ feels so good!"

"Old Biden, what's that expression of yours, so lewd."

Seeing Du Gu Bo smile as brightly as a chrysanthemum, Bai Ran frowned in disgust and asked.

"I, I......"

This feeling, Du Gu Bo didn't know how to describe it.

The toxin that had troubled him for decades was cleared.

The Azure Scale Snake, as a top-tier beast martial soul, in quality is actually not inferior to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, which is called the number one beast martial soul.

However, soul masters possessing the Azure Scale Snake martial soul must constantly endure the suffering of toxin invasion from the Azure Scale Snake.

Once your soul power growth speed can't keep up with the Azure Scale Snake's toxin eroding the body, the soul master will suffer a painful death from the toxin's backlash.

Therefore, most soul masters with the Azure Scale Snake martial soul have very short lifespans.

Du Gu Bo is fortunate, because his talent is extremely high; he not only evolved the Azure Scale Snake into the Azure Scale Snake King and achieved Title Douluo, but he is also unfortunate, due to the defect of the Azure Scale Snake martial soul, which caused him to witness the deaths of his relatives one after another, leaving only his sole granddaughter.

However, as his age increases, his body continually ages under the toxin's erosion, and Du Gu Bo is also suffering the backlash pain of his martial soul.

However, all of this has now disappeared.

Even the soul power that had been stagnant began to increase, rising from level 91 to 92, then 93 in just a minute, and still climbing!

After a few minutes, the soul power level settled at 95, and there's still strong momentum.

Du Gu Bo felt that after another ten days or half a month of consolidation, he could definitely break through level 96.

After sensing the changes in his body, at this moment Du Bo's gaze toward Bai Ran was filled with greed.

Such a precious item, this kid still has more than half left.

"Old Biden, why are you staring at me like that, and how effective is this elixir?"

Bai Ran isn't afraid that Du Gu Bo will develop greed and want to kill him.

Leaving aside Bai Ran's importance to certain Imperial figures, if he dies here at Du Gu Bo's hands, Du Gu Bo will become an enemy of the Empire.

If he were to face pursuit from both the Empire and the Spirit Hall simultaneously, Du Gu Bo couldn't withstand it.

Moreover, although Du Gu Bo isn't exactly a good person, he still has principles.

You not only cured his poison but also raised his soul power to level 95. Even if your original intention was merely to use Du Gu Bo as a guinea pig for drug testing.

But to Du Gu Bo, this is a tremendous favor; he would never repay kindness with betrayal.

As the original story says, even if Tang San only provided Du Gu Bo with the worst detox method, this Toxin Douluo still willingly promised Tang San three conditions and gifted him his extremely precious storage soul tool.

"Little guy, this elixir of yours is quite excellent."

It can only be said, it's no wonder it's immortal herb essence.

The method to clear the toxin is also simple and brutal: directly giving the martial soul a physical form and attaching all the toxins in the body onto that martial soul manifestation.

It's a pity that Du Gu Bo has already evolved the Azure Scale Snake into the Azure Scale Snake King, fixing the poison attribute's evolution direction.

No matter how miraculous the immortal herb, it cannot let his martial soul enter a new form.

"Um, little guy, could you spare some for my granddaughter to use?"

Having obtained something good, Du Gu Bo's first thought was his precious granddaughter.

Du Gu Yan inherited the Azure Scale Snake martial soul; her body now shows signs of poisoning, such as her purplish hair, which is an early manifestation of poisoning.

"Sure, no problem at all."

Bai Ran glanced at the elixir in his hand; such a big pill, he couldn't finish it himself.

As for giving some to the Shrek crowd? Bai Ran: Who are the Shrek Seven Monsters? I'm not familiar.

"Hey little guy, this is a Wishful Hundred Treasures Bag, a soul tool that can store living things; take it and use it."

Du Gu Bo took out his most precious storage soul tool and handed it to Bai Ran.

To be honest, Bai Ran truly doesn't have a storage soul tool; after all, ordinary people can't get hold of such things.

Either that, or one has a powerful background or strong forces.

Even Feng Tian Yu, who possesses the Soul Saint realm, only has one, obtained from the battlefield back then.

Although elixirs refined from immortal herbs should not spoil.

But keeping it in one's pocket always feels uneasy; putting it into a soul tool is much better.

Watching Du Gu Bo dash off like an old child.

Bai Ran saw that nine-tenths of the Shrek Happy Pill remained before him.

"Let me see what's going on."

Saying that, he cut off a small piece and stored the remainder in his Wish-fulfilling Hundred Treasures Pouch.

(Tang San: My heart feels hollow again— which bastard is this? I see you're already courting death!)

……

At the same time, the afternoon culture class at Tian Dou Royal Academy had just ended, and Du Gu Yan came to the side of Yu Feng, who shared a desk with Yu Tianheng.

Yu Feng: What's up? Du Gu Yan: You tell me. Yu Feng: I understand.

Yu Tianheng: Thanks, bro.

"Tianheng, what's for dinner tonight?"

Just as he sat down, Du Gu Yan leaned against Yu Tianheng's shoulder and began to act coquettishly.

"You little glutton, there's still a training session later, no rush."

"Oh, I was just asking, Tianheng."

……

At this moment, outside the window, he watched his precious granddaughter snuggled in the arms of some yellow-haired guy.

Having arrived at Tian Dou Royal Academy, Poison Douluo Du Gu Bo standing outside the classroom instantly had his face darken.

Du Gu Bo: Damn yellow-haired guy, you really deserve to die! (End of chapter)
