Douluo Continent: Ultimate Sea God Dragon, Inheriting Two Godhoods

"Bang…"

The cup was slammed down, and Qian Renxue was shocked!

"Who are you talking about!?"

"Dugu Yan, the granddaughter of Poison Douluo." Ouyang Ling repeated again, making sure Qian Renxue could hear him clearly.

"How could she have been poisoned?"

Qian Renxue did not doubt Ouyang Ling's judgment.

What she found truly unbelievable was that the granddaughter of a titled Douluo who was renowned for his poison was still suffering from poisoning—wasn't that utterly ridiculous?

"It must have been something you were born with."

Using his acquaintance with Dugu Yan as a pretext, Ouyang Ling began his operation to lure Dugu Bo. However, he wasn't alone; he needed to coordinate first.

"I specifically observed Dugu Yan's physical condition and found that her eyes were emerald green, and even her hair was abnormal. It was clear that the poison had penetrated deep into her bones. The only possibility for this was that it was brought from the womb. I even suspected her grandfather..."

However, before Ouyang Ling could finish speaking, Qian Renxue, whose focus had shifted somewhat, suddenly asked, "Have you been observing that Dugu Yan?"

"ha?"

Upon hearing this, Ouyang Ling was immediately stunned.

When he realized what was happening, he met Qian Renxue's deep gaze and gave her a speechless half-moon look.

"Sister Xue'er, she has a boyfriend. And we're in the same class, it's hard not to notice."

"Ahem—, I see..." As if afraid of being "seen naked," Qian Renxue coughed lightly as if she didn't care. "Go on, I'm listening."

Ouyang Ling retorted without hesitation, "Where did I say I was referring to?"

Qian Renxue, realizing she was in the wrong: "...Poison Douluo."

"Good to hear. I'll continue." Ouyang Ling regained his serious expression. "So I was wondering if Poison Douluo's appearance is similar to Dugu Yan's. If so, was he also poisoned?"

Qian Renxue: "..."

To be a Poison Douluo poisoned by his own poison, and unable to cure it himself—if the truth is as speculated, this would truly be the most ridiculous thing imaginable!

"I'll have someone investigate."

Qian Renxue made a decisive decision!

Of course, she wasn't just investigating Dugu Bo's appearance, but also his entire Dugu family.

The Spirit Hall has records of all of this.

As soon as Qian Renxue gave the order, the "machinery" in the shadows began to run. Just one day later, news about the Dugu family came back, including the general situation of Dugu Bo's son, Dugu Xin, and the approximate time of his sudden death.

"Take a look."

Upon receiving news of the Dugu family, Qian Renxue came to Ouyang Ling's room and handed him all the files and portraits of the Dugu family.

He added, "I had people assess the situation. Before they knew Dugu Bo was the Poison Douluo, all the doctors said it was poisoning. But after his identity was revealed, they all said they had misjudged him."

"This is the authority of a Title Douluo."

As Ouyang Ling spoke, he opened the file folder. "Who would believe that a Poison Douluo could be poisoned? They would rather believe that they misjudged the situation, or that Dugu Bo's condition was a result of his martial soul."

"You're right."

Qian Renxue nodded.

She wasn't blaming the doctors.

After all, the Spirit Hall is full of talented people, including many powerful Soul Masters, and many of them know Dugu Bo. But who would question whether Poison Douluo himself was poisoned? To put it bluntly, it's the authority of a Title Douluo that's at play.

At this moment, Qian Renxue understood Ouyang Ling's purpose. So, as he opened the documents, she asked with certainty, "So, the reason you brought this up with me earlier was to ask if I could use Deep Blue Purification to detoxify them, right?"

"That's right."

Ouyang Ling readily admitted it.

"My real purpose is to use Dugu Yan to lure out Dugu Bo." He placed the file on the table and looked at Qian Renxue, who was staring at him, with a "clean conscience" posture. "A titled Douluo, and one who can be called the number one in group battles, will be of great help to Sister Xue'er in the future."

Qian Renxue frowned slightly.

"He has a good relationship with Prince Snowstar."

"Wouldn't that be even better!"

Ouyang Ling clapped her hands with a smile, "He helped Prince Xuexing because Prince Xuexing had helped him before. This undoubtedly proves that Dugu Bo is a person who always repays kindness. If I can help Dugu Yan and him get rid of the poison, then given his character, the debt of gratitude he owes will be immense!"

"As for Prince Snowstar..."

He paused, then continued, "Well, he should have finished reporting by now. Or is it that my sister doesn't have confidence in me?"

Qian Renxue's expression immediately froze.

"You want to handle it all by yourself!?"

"That's right."

"No! I don't agree!"

"But this is the best approach."

Ouyang Ling said with great certainty, "Sister Xue'er cannot be exposed yet. The intelligence also shows that Dugu Bo does not like to associate with any major forces. The Heaven Dou Empire is only because of friendship. So I treat him as a personal friend, which is undoubtedly the safest choice."

However, the opposition remained relentless. "No! Dugu Bo is inherently unpredictable and capricious. If you expose his poisoning, he might attack you in a fit of rage!"

"That's too dangerous!"

"Don't worry, I won't expose you directly." Ouyang Ling was confident; he had already planned what to do.

"In a while, the eight of us will have a get-together. Dugu will likely invite me to a soul battle then, which will be a good opportunity for me to cure her poison. But I won't expose her openly; instead, I'll wait until Dugu goes home and let Dugu Bo find out on her own. Then, Dugu Bo will naturally come looking for me."

"Under these circumstances, even if Dugu Bo didn't want Dugu to be poisoned again in the future, he wouldn't harm my life. As for what he might do to me... First of all, let's not talk about the fact that you, Xue'er, are the Crown Prince, and I am the Crown Prince's younger brother. Dugu Bo would have to consider the Crown Prince's feelings even if he didn't care about me. Secondly, I have a very good relationship with Dugu. With that relationship, Dugu Bo wouldn't do anything to me..."

Listening to Ouyang Ling's clear and logical arguments, Qian Renxue couldn't refute him. So, only after he finished speaking did she ask with a serious face, "Are you really sure?"

Facing Qian Renxue's dark expression, Ouyang Ling nodded firmly, "Dugu Bo is very important..."

"I don't care how important he is!"

Qian Renxue interrupted sharply, her eyes fixed on Ouyang Ling, suppressing her anger, and finally sighed.

"You're becoming more and more disobedient..."

Ouyang Ling: "..."

I think there's something wrong with what you're saying.

Qian Renxue: "Okay, I agree."

Upon hearing this, before Ouyang Ling could even show a hint of joy, Qian Renxue continued, "If Dugu Bo really attacks you, then I'll wipe them out! I'll make Dugu Bo wish he were dead. As for you!"

The sharp gaze and icy words sent a chill down Ouyang Ling's spine. "What about me?"

"hehe--"

A cold laugh rang out. "As for you, just wait until I lock you in this secret chamber, and then I'll release you when your cultivation breaks through to the Soul Saint realm!"

"A Soul Saint!?"

"Then let's make him a Title Douluo!"

After changing her mind, Qian Renxue glanced at Ouyang Ling and turned to leave without giving him a chance to bargain.

A somewhat bewildered Ouyang Ling: "..."

No!

Another escape room puzzle!?

You and your daughter can't get over the secret room, can you?

Despite his complaints, he knew that Qian Renxue was concerned about this, but he was determined to obtain the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, along with one or two powerful weapons.

Fortunately, Sister Xue'er agreed to his plan.

Ouyang Ling slapped his thigh with the file, "Dugu Bo, Dugu Bo, don't let me down..."
