"If Xiaowu and the others come to me, tell them I'm going to talk to an old man about my ideals."

After saying that, Du Cheng quickly dressed and headed towards the grove of trees behind the mountain.

As a fine young man who deeply respects the elderly and cares for the young, Du Cheng certainly wouldn't keep Old Master Dugu waiting for long.

Unleashing his soul power, Du Cheng jogged along, and in just three minutes, he successfully arrived at the agreed-upon grove of trees.

However, why do titled Douluo all like to meet people in the forest? Is this some kind of Douluo characteristic?

Despite his complaints, Du Cheng still managed to meet the old man he had been longing to see.

Like Dugu Yan, he had emerald green eyes. However, unlike Dugu Yan, Dugu Bo's beard and even eyebrows were green. His cheeks were deep-set, and his figure was slender. He looked aloof and... full of natural charm.

"Kid, I didn't expect you to actually come?"

While being scrutinized by Du Cheng, Dugu Bo was also sizing up the young man in front of him:

He looks to be only twelve or thirteen years old. His handsome appearance is no less than that of an old man in his youth. Most importantly, judging from the fluctuations in his soul power, he is already close to level sixty.

genius?

monster!

Suppressing his shock, Dugu Bo tried his best to keep his expression cold:

Calling this kid over in the middle of the night wasn't to praise him.

"With Poison Douluo inviting me late at night, how could Du Cheng, as a junior, dare to refuse so easily?"

Chapter 123 Night Talk with Dugu Bo

"Good boy!"

As soon as Du Cheng finished speaking, Dugu Bo couldn't help but let out a soft gasp:

"Now that you know my identity, you still dare to act like this. Do you think I won't kill you?"

His gaze fell on Du Cheng, and Dugu Bo tried his best to make his expression cruel:

We're here to avenge our granddaughter, so we can't be lacking in the necessary spirit.

"Old Master Dugu is joking."

Upon hearing Dugu Bo's words, Du Cheng revealed a faint smile:

"Everyone knows that Poison Douluo is clear about his grudges and favors. We have no enmity between us, so why would you attack me?"

"No injustice or enmity?"

A powerful surge of soul energy emanated from his body, and a hint of anger appeared on Dugu Bo's face:

"Boy, are you playing dumb with me?"

"Dugu Yan is my own granddaughter. Since you made her a maid, how dare you say you have no grudge against me?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Dugu Bo's powerful soul force, befitting a Title Douluo, enveloped Du Cheng. Dugu Bo's expression shifted.

He wanted to see what else this cunning young man could say.

Titled Douluo cannot be insulted lightly. If this kid cannot give a plausible reason, even if he admires him, he will still teach Du Cheng a lesson.

To Dugu Bo's surprise, Du Cheng remained calm and composed in the face of his imposing presence.

"If it were to be a maid, it would indeed be a bit offensive to Miss Dugu."

After a pause, Du Cheng's gaze returned to Dugu Bo:

"But what if I'm doing this to save her?"

"what?"

As soon as Du Cheng finished speaking, Dugu Bo couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly.

"Boy, do you know what you're saying?"

His soul power radiated outwards from himself, and Dugu Bo's face showed dissatisfaction:

"With my strength, why would Yanzi need a mere brat like you to save her?"

"Old Master Dugu is incredibly powerful, and few in the entire Douluo Continent dare to disrespect you."

After offering a compliment to Dugu Bo, Du Cheng continued:

"But what if even you can't solve the danger that Dugu Yan encounters?"

In a sense, this statement can hardly be considered flattery.

Dugu Bo, a level 91 Title Douluo!

Due to the limitations of his own soul power, Dugu Bo was known as the 'weakest Title Douluo'.

Even so, some powerful forces that also have Title Douluo-level experts would not be willing to provoke him.

The reason is simple: his poison skills are too strong!

If you really anger Dugu Bo and he secretly poisons you, strong individuals might be fine, but Soul Masters below the Soul Douluo level would definitely die in large numbers...

Of course, none of this had anything to do with Du Cheng. At this moment, he still needed to continue to deceive the old man with words.

"If I'm not mistaken..."

Du Cheng's gaze swept over Dugu Bo, and a look of regret appeared on his face:

"With such a potent poison, I'm afraid your days are not easy, sir."

‘Boom~’

It was as if a tremendous roar was ringing in his ears; in an instant, Dugu Bo's expression became excited:

"Can you tell what's wrong with me?"

Dugu Bo couldn't help but be excited; what was happening was simply too astonishing.

As the renowned "Poison" Douluo of the Douluo Continent, Dugu Bo is seen by many as a master of poison.

But only he himself knew that, due to his own martial spirit, although he had mastered powerful poison techniques, he was also suffering from severe poisoning.

Even more frustratingly, Dugu Bo was not only helpless against the poison within himself, but he also discovered that this poison could be passed on to his bloodline:

Once the poison takes effect, unless one possesses strength comparable to his, there is essentially no other way out but death.

Du Gu Bo's feelings can be imagined after Du Cheng saw through his situation:

Although this kid is a bit young, he is, after all, the first person to discover this in all these years.

“Not only can I see clearly Old Master Dugu’s condition, but also…”

Seeing Dugu Bo's excited expression, Du Cheng's lips curled into a slight smile:

Steady!

"If nothing unexpected happens, I can also solve the old man's current troubles."

‘Hiss~’

As Du Cheng spoke, Dugu Bo couldn't help but take a long breath.

Logically speaking, he shouldn't have trusted a teenager.

But the truth is, if they don't seize this opportunity, even with his help, Dugu Yan, with her strength, would probably have a hard time surviving the poison outbreak.

"Boy!"

Dugu Bo's expression turned serious as his gaze fell on Du Cheng.

“If you can remove the poison from my body and my granddaughter’s body, then I can not only forgive your previous offense, but also promise to do three things for you.”

Before Du Cheng could speak, Dugu Bo quickly added:

"Three things you must not cross my bottom line!"

"not enough."

Dugu Bo is an arrogant person. Since he has said three things, he will definitely try his best to complete them, but this is not Du Cheng's goal.

Shaking his head, Du Cheng's expression remained remarkably calm:

"The lives of the old man and your granddaughter cannot be offset by just three promises."

"you……"

Upon hearing Du Cheng's words, Dugu Bo raised an eyebrow slightly:

However, he did not get angry because of this. His willingness to negotiate showed that Du Cheng had enough confidence.

In a way, this is actually a good thing for Dugu Bo.

"If that's the case, then what do you want to gain?"

With his gaze falling on Du Cheng, Dugu Bo handed the initiative over to Du Cheng:

"Let me give you a word of advice first: young man, never be too greedy when you do things."

"Don't worry, old man."

Du Cheng nodded to Dugu Bo, a wide smile spreading across his face.
