Douluo's Holy Lord at the Start

Chapter 49: Gu Rong's Help

Dugu Bo's strange behavior made the last few people who remained narrow their eyes, especially Xue Qinghe, who had already imagined countless possibilities in his mind.

Xue Xing, who had been swept to the ground, had not expected this scene and was too ashamed to stay in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School any longer. She got up and left without looking back.

Anyway, from now on he will no longer be the high and mighty Prince Xuexing, and he may never have the chance to meet them again in this lifetime, so why should he put on an act to please the people of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School?

"Qinghe, it's getting late, so I won't keep you any longer."

Ning Fengzhi also noticed that something was wrong with Dugu Bo, so he turned to Xue Qinghe and said.

That's practically kicking people out.

"Yes, teacher, then I won't bother you any longer. I'll visit you again in Qinghe after some time."

However, I heard that Master is currently searching for gem-type soul bones. After Qinghe returns, he will mobilize all the resources of the Crown Prince's Palace to help Master achieve this goal as much as possible.

Xue Qinghe quickly cupped his hands in greeting to Ning Fengzhi, not forgetting to boost Ning Fengzhi's favorability at the last moment.

"Heh, then thank you very much. If you can find the soul bone, then I, your teacher, will owe you a favor."

Ning Fengzhi's expression remained unchanged as he looked at Xue Qinghe with a polite smile.

"Old fox!"

Xue Qinghe turned and left the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, inwardly cursing Ning Fengzhi for being so meticulous. He wanted the favors owed by the entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, not just Xue Qinghe's.

But he couldn't say those words.

"Uncle Gu, what's wrong with Dugu Bo? Should we go and check on him?"

Ning Fengzhi said to Gu Rong after Xue Qinghe left.

"No need, he told me before he left that he can handle small things himself."

Gu Rong shook his head and said to Ning Fengzhi.

"You bitch, Fengzhi's safety is now in your hands. I need to take a two-week break."

After handing over the task of ensuring Ning Fengzhi's safety to Chen Xin, Gu Rong vanished in a flash.

"this!"

Chen Xin raised an eyebrow upon seeing this scene.

"Uncle Jian, do you think this is a small matter?"

Ning Fengzhi looked in the direction of Bone Peak and muttered to himself.

"I don't know, but Dugu Bo must have been in a lot of pain at that moment."

As a sword cultivator, Chen Xin possessed sharp eyes and keenly perceived Dugu Bo's momentary chaotic soul power and pained expression.

Even the body momentarily loses control.

What kind of pain must a Title Douluo endure to lose control of their body?

"Uncle Jian, should we go take a look?"

Ning Fengzhi felt this was a perfect opportunity to improve Dugu Bo's favorability. Dugu Bo clearly had a problem with his cultivation, while the Ning family, regardless of anything else, was absolutely top-notch in martial soul research.

If we can take this opportunity to resolve Dugu Bo's problem, then there might be a chance to lure Dugu Bo to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

"No need. If the old man doesn't want us to get involved, then he doesn't want us to know either. Let's just leave it as it is. It's fine as it is now."

Chen Xin remained as upright as ever, disdaining to pry into other people's secrets.

Furthermore, the relationship between the two sides has clearly reached a precipice; if they continue down this path without knowing when to advance or retreat…

"All right."

Ning Fengzhi sighed, then his expression turned serious again.

"If we really can't trade for the Gemstone Left Leg Soul Bone, then we'll have to trouble you, Uncle Jian."

Ning Fengzhi looked at Chen Xin and said.

Since no one is willing to make a deal with him, the only option left is to resort to the last resort, which is also the easiest way to cause trouble for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

"Don't worry, it concerns Rongrong's future, I won't hesitate."

A cold glint flashed in Chen Xin's eyes.

However, they still have time. They just need to collect all six soul bones before Ning Rongrong reaches level 20. Right now, it would take Ning Rongrong at least three years to reach level 20.

Therefore, they have at least three years to prepare.

"Ugh!"

After returning to Bone Peak, Dugu Bo went straight back to his room, but before he could even sit down properly, the intense pain caused him to scream out in agony, and he fell to the ground, his body convulsing.

His symptoms of poisoning usually begin around midnight or noon. Before that, he would usually find a secluded place to use the ice and fire power stored in the poison pill to relieve the pain in his body.

He had planned to return from the banquet around the appointed time, but Xuexing was like a persistent leech that he couldn't shake off.

Out of consideration for their past relationship, he didn't want to embarrass Xuexing, but Xuexing was shameless and kept pestering him.

His pain became increasingly unbearable over time, which finally led to his outburst of anger.

But when he returned to the Bone Peak, the pain became unbearable and overwhelmed his will.

"What happened?"

Gu Rong rushed back immediately after Dugu Bo returned, almost at the same time.

Then we saw Dugu Bo in unbearable pain.

He stepped to Dugu Bo's side, grabbed him, and poured his powerful soul energy into Dugu Bo's body.

"How is this possible?"

At this moment, Gu Rong also sensed the situation within Dugu Bo's body.

Every part of his body was infected by the deadly poison. Now the poison was like a starving rat, frantically devouring Dugu Bo's body. If it were an ordinary person, they would probably be dead by now, but Dugu Bo is still alive.

Almost instinctively, Gu Rong used his powerful soul force to forcefully suppress the toxins.

"I'm so sorry, I'm troubling Elder Bone for your rescue."

With the pain subsiding slightly, Dugu Bo finally recovered and cast a grateful glance at Gu Rong.

"What exactly is going on? Your body...?"

Gu Rong hadn't expected Dugu Bo's health condition to be so serious; given his current state, he probably didn't have many years left to live.

You have to understand that Dugu Bo was someone he found to be Gu Xuan's bodyguard. If Dugu Bo were to die suddenly due to his own reasons, wouldn't he have wasted all his time on Dugu Bo?

"Elder Bone, please help me suppress this for a while, I'll be able to finish it right away."

Dugu Bo's face was pale, but with Gu Rong's help to suppress the poison for a while, he also had a chance to mobilize the ice and fire energy in his inner core.

"All right!"

Although Gu Rong had many questions he wanted to ask, he could only wait until Dugu Bo resolved his own situation before discussing them.

With Gu Rong's help, Dugu Bo quickly mobilized his ice and fire power, rapidly replacing Gu Rong's soul power and colliding with the deadly poison.

Gu Rong withdrew his hand only after seeing that Dugu Bo was able to resist his own poison, and then looked at Dugu Bo with a look of surprise.

Dugu Bo's method of dealing with the poison gas seemed somewhat too ingenious to him.

In particular, that aura of ice and fire could actually extinguish even the most troublesome poisons.

However, this also relieved him. As long as Dugu Bo had a way to cure the poison and survive for several years, that would be fine.

A few years later, he believed that Gu Xuan would also grow up.

even……

Gu Rong shook her head, still unsure. She would wait and see, and if it really suited her, she would tell Xuan'er later.

Time passed quickly, and after noon, the deadly poison in Dugu Bo's body slowly subsided.

Dugu Bo finally breathed a sigh of relief, opened his eyes, and began to pant, his clothes completely soaked with sweat.

Looking up, I saw Gu Rong standing with her hands behind her back, looking down at me with a scrutinizing gaze.
