Chapter 69 The Important Dugu Bo
Qian Daoliu didn't care about Xie Mo's form of address. He could sense that this kid still had a good impression of the Spirit Hall, and now that his whole family had joined the Spirit Hall, he could be considered one of them.
"By the way, you are actually considered people of the Hall of Offerings, and Bibi Dong's orders..."
"Just listen and see."
After all, Bibi Dong is still the official Pope, and there will definitely be some dealings with her. It wouldn't be good to refuse her.
Compared to the other elders who were not convinced by Bibi Dong, Qian Daoliu knew that Bibi Dong's strength was already greater than most of the elders.
He estimated that the opponent's second spirit ring had not been fully absorbed yet, and that his spirit power would increase again. With the help of the divine test, he estimated that the opponent would soon reach the same level as him. He might not be able to defeat the opponent then, since no one knew how much the divine inheritor's test would help, but it was still better than him, a high-ranking elder.
The thought of Bibi Dong made Qian Daoliu feel a pang of sadness. If it weren't for the fear that Xue'er's emotional scars might prevent her from becoming a god, he would have...
The two watched as Qian Daoliu's face darkened, wondering what he had done to anger him.
"By the way, your martial spirit..."
"Fine, you can leave now. Don't forget, you're now members of the Spirit Hall."
Suddenly realizing that Xie Mo's martial soul had little to do with him, Qian Daoliu gave the two a final reminder and waved for them to leave.
He had achieved his goal of coming here: he avenged Xue'er, obtained the 100,000-year-old soul bone, and even helped Xue'er recruit a few allies. Next, he would meet with Xue'er and then return home.
"Please take care, senior. I'll take my leave now, and we'll meet again someday."
Even the usually aloof Dugu Bo wore a smile, appearing quite obedient.
Goodbye, Grandpa!
Xie Mo blinked his pure, kind, and clear eyes and said.
The two then slowly turned around and walked step by step toward the path in the forest. After walking several hundred meters, they gradually quickened their pace. After walking for another half hour, Xie Mo transformed into a fighter jet and carried Dugu Bo toward the outside of Sunset Forest.
Dugu Bo continuously channeled soul power into Xie Mo's body, allowing him to maintain high-speed flight. Fortunately, Xie Mo's body was quite resilient and could hold on for a while.
When his body could no longer hold on, Xie Mo slowly landed in the wild, transformed into the Five Spirit King, and began to absorb the essence of the surrounding plants.
Countless green light spots appeared in the air and quickly entered Xie Mo's body. Immediately, a feeling of exhilaration filled his body, and all the minor damage caused by Dugu Bo's soul power was completely repaired.
With a wave of his hand, his soul power transformed into wood spirit power and sprinkled onto the plants that were somewhat listless after sacrificing a little bit of their essence, making them look even more lush than before.
"What bad luck! I never expected to end up selling myself after just one trip out."
After speaking, Dugu Bo looked at Xie Mo with a rather resentful expression. Although he knew that if he hadn't said those words, he might not have survived, he still had to vent his frustrations.
"You didn't listen to a word I said, Master."
Xie Mo looked at Dugu Bo with a helpless expression, wondering why his master was so clueless.
"What did you say?"
Dugu Bo carefully considered what his apprentice had said, but found nothing wrong with it.
"Think again about your abilities and your importance to the major powers."
Xie Mo no longer blamed his master. After all, Dugu Bo was a homebody before, and he only interacted with a few people. This situation only changed after Xie Mo arrived. He usually lived alone.
His poison, his importance...
Dugu Bo fell into deep thought. Was he really that important to the major powers? How come he didn't know?
"Master, do you remember what Uncle Ning said about the situation on the mainland when we last visited him?"
Xie Mo couldn't help but remind Dugu Bo of what Ning Fengzhi had said back then.
"The mainland may seem calm on the surface, but it is actually a volcano about to erupt, which could cause the sky to collapse and the earth to split open at any moment."
The quality of this generation of geniuses is much better than that of the previous two generations. Although they may not be of great use, they may be the last straw that breaks the camel's back.
The Heavenly Dou Sect is indulging in decadent pleasures, the Star Luo Sect is ambitious and thriving, and the Spirit Hall is flourishing. Who knows what the future holds? I hope His Majesty Dugu can support my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and maintain close ties with him.
Dugu Bo wasn't stupid either; upon recalling this, he instantly understood what Xie Mo wanted to say.
"You mean, war might break out on the mainland in the future?"
It's a bit of a headache. War is no fun. We've finally managed to enjoy a few happy days.
"Who knows? But it's always possible."
"Like that grandfather we just met, what do you think of his abilities?"
Xie Mo countered with a question.
"Killing me is as easy as turning one's hand. It seems that the opponent's soul power has a dissolving effect. My poison has little effect on the opponent. I will definitely be defeated in less than thirty moves."
Dugu Bo was very honest and didn't try to save face. In fact, he felt that saying thirty moves was an exaggeration, and he felt that he couldn't even withstand that one sword strike.
"Would the opponent be considered invincible outside of the Spirit Hall?"
Xie Mo continued to ask.
"I guess so..."
Dugu Bo knew that Old Chrysanthemum's strength already surpassed most Title Douluos; his current strength was actually in the top tier.
He was timid and hesitant in front of the other party, and the others were no better.
"What if he killed all the high-ranking figures from other factions?"
Xie Mo's words startled Dugu Bo, who hesitated upon hearing them, and thus began to re-evaluate his disciple.
"This is likely to cause quite a bit of trouble, after all, royal ideology is still deeply ingrained."
Although Dugu Bo did not revere the royal family, he was aware of the ignorance of his subordinates, not to mention the chaos in the ducal kingdom.
"If we add your poison to that, do you think anyone would dare to resist?"
Xie Mo's words made Dugu Bo's face fall; he finally understood what Xie Mo meant.
His poisons are like a game-changer for the weak. Just by poisoning the water source, he can easily kill an entire city. Excluding travel time, he could take over the whole of Tiandou in half a day. This is no joke.
With the high-ranking officials all killed and the leadership gone, and the middle and lower ranks intimidated by his poison, does that mean the Spirit Hall is bound to win?
Dugu Bo felt a sense of wonder; he never expected that he would have such an important day.
"If war really breaks out, the first person the opposing forces will kill is you."
"After all, ordinary titled Douluo can only be considered as harassment; it would take a long time to truly eliminate a large force, but you are different."
"If you still stand on the side of the Heavenly Dou Empire, you can think about the consequences."
Xie Mo blinked and looked at Dugu Bo with a sincere expression.
First, you need to recognize your own awesomeness. If you don't even think you're awesome, how can others think you are awesome?
Xie Mo was still counting on Dugu Bo as a backer; the more powerful Dugu Bo was, the better his treatment and the greater his safety would be.
"Stop talking and tell me about your 100,000-year spirit ring. I've never seen it before."
Dugu Bo stroked his chin and smiled bitterly. He was certain that the Heaven Dou royal family didn't have any titles. If he really had to side with Heaven Dou, with seven or eight titled Douluo all coming at him, it would be a nightmare.
Waaah, my computer broke down. I still have half a chapter left to write, but I'm working on it right now. Please wait a moment, I'm pulling an all-nighter to finish this!
