(DD) Chapter 115: Tinder of hope

"Who? Who is that person? Yan'er, tell Grandpa quickly, Grandpa must prepare a generous gift to thank him,"

Dugu Bo said, placing his hands on his granddaughter's shoulders with impatience.

"How about a thank you?"

Dugu Yan coldly snorted, her cheeks puffed up.


"Grandpa, you don't have to thank him at all. That guy is the one who stole your herbs.

Now everything that could be picked from your medicine garden has been plundered by him. It's really hateful!"

Dugu Yan expressed her dissatisfaction.

Hearing Dugu Yan's words, Dugu Bo shook his head indifferently.

"Yan'er, to grandpa, you are his most precious treasure, even though that mysterious person stole those herbs from the medicine garden.

But those medicinal herbs were originally cultivated by grandpa to treat the toxins accumulated in your body.

Now that the mysterious person is willing to help you cure most of the poison, it fulfills Grandpa's wish. Let him keep those herbs."


"But, grandpa, how can this be..."

Hearing this, Dugu Yan was still a little annoyed.

Her grandfather had put in so much hard work, and now someone took advantage of him.

It was truly infuriating.


"Okay, Yan'er, let's not say anymore. Did that mysterious strong man leave anything for you?"

Dugu Bo made it clear that he didn't want to pursue the matter further.

After all, the other party had the strength of a Titled Douluo and was not inferior to him.

Dugu Bo believed that it would be unwise to offend a stronger Titled Douluo just for the sake of those medicinal herbs.

Moreover, the other party had taken action to help detoxify his granddaughter, showing that they had no malicious intentions.

Dugu Yan expressed her dissatisfaction by curling her lips and finally revealed the message left by Wang Jingyu.

"The mysterious strong man asked you to give me a prescription for detoxification.

He said that based on your knowledge of poison, you should be able to solve the remaining poison in my body."

Dugu Bo nodded slightly, realizing that the other party had some understanding of his abilities.

If it were the toxin from the heyday, he would be truly helpless.

However, he believed that he could handle the current residual poison.

After all, he was the Poison Douluo, and it would be a disgrace if he couldn't solve it.

"What else did he say? Yan'er, don't keep me waiting.

Did you want to kill your grandpa from wait?"

Dugu Bo became a little anxious and urged Dugu Yan to continue speaking.

"He said... If you're still unsure about curing me, then go to Blue Tyrant Academy to find him.

He said his surname is Wang. "

"He also mentioned that after receiving so many rare herbs from you, he took the initiative to help us get rid of the residual poison.

He should understand the cause and effect,"

Dugu Yan finally finished speaking in one breath, realizing that her grandfather was looking at her with excitement.

"Yan'er, what did you say? He said he could help both of us get rid of the toxins in our bodies?

Are you sure you heard it right?"

"Yes, Grandpa, I heard correctly. That's what he said,"

Dugu Yan nodded resolutely, assuring her grandfather that she was not lying.

Tears welled up in Dugu Bo's eyes for a moment, and he was so excited that he couldn't speak.

Dugu Bo had been tormented by the poison accumulated in his body for over ten years.

Though the toxin could be suppressed by relying on the unique hot spring in the Yin Yan Ice and Fire Well, only he knew the heart-piercing pain it caused.

If there was a way to relieve that pain, he naturally yearned for it.

However, he had never held any expectations for a cure.

No one in the world could solve the poison that even he couldn't eradicate.

But now, someone had not only detoxified most of his granddaughter's poison but also offered to help him detoxify himself.

This undeniably reignited the spark of hope in Dugu Bo's seemingly lifeless heart.

"Okay, okay...Yan'er, go to the Blue Tyrant Academy with grandpa tomorrow to find that mysterious strong man.

Remember, be polite.

For now, he is our savior.

If he is willing to help grandpa detoxify, then he is like a parent to us, and you must not be disrespectful to him."

Dugu Bo could also sense that his granddaughter had some kind of feud with the mysterious man, though he didn't know the details.

But based on her attitude, it was evident that there had been some misunderstandings.

"Understood, Grandpa, I will remember."

Dugu Yan nodded, though she was still a bit troubled.

If the other party was genuinely good, why would they resort to stealing?

"Yan'er, go rest now. Grandpa has some matters to attend to.

Remember to wake up early tomorrow and go with grandpa to express our gratitude to that senior."

Dugu Bo gently caressed Dugu Yan's head, treating her as if she were a precious treasure.

"Hmm..." Dugu Yan nodded and made her way to her boudoir.

Meanwhile, at the Blue Tyrant Academy, Liu Erlong felt a sense of melancholy due to Wang Jingyu's absence.

According to the diary, he had intended to cause harm to the carefully cultivated medicine garden of a Titled Douluo.


Naturally, Liu Erlong wasn't worried that Wang Jingyu would be defeated or killed by a Titled Douluo.

But after spending so many days together, Wang Jingyu suddenly vanished, not returning even at night.

Naturally, Liu Erlong felt a sense of emptiness.

It was only human nature.

After living for over thirty years, Liu Erlong was experiencing genuine loneliness during the long nights.

That's when she thought of her own daughter.

Grabbing a pillow and a quilt, she quietly slipped out of her room and hurried towards Xiao Wu's bedroom.

Since sleep eluded her, engaging in a heart-to-heart conversation with Xiao Wu seemed like a good choice.

Xiao Wu, who was about to fall asleep in her dormitory, heard a knock on the door.

She opened it and saw Liu Erlong standing outside with wide eyes.

"Xiao Wu, Mom can't sleep. Can we have a chat?"

Xiao Wu nodded noncommittally, opened the door, and let Liu Erlong enter the bedroom.

Mother and daughter lay on the bed together, engaging in heartfelt conversation.

This deepened the bond between them.

Xiao Wu hadn't felt her mother's care for a long time, and now, as she curled up in Liu Erlong's arms, she felt deeply satisfied and cherished.

Time slipped away, and both mother and daughter unknowingly fell asleep.

The next day, as the sun rose high in the sky,

Liu Erlong, still immersed in slumber, heard the sound of commotion outside.

Listening attentively, she could hear a female student conversing with others in the corridor.

"Have you heard? Poison Douluo, one of the few titled Douluo in our Heaven Dou Empire, is currently blocking our academy."

"Yes, I heard he came here to meet a titled Douluo expert named Wang, but there's no such expert with the surname Wang in our academy."

"Wow, a Title Douluo-level powerhouse actually came to our academy in person. What's happening?"

"I heard the dean mysteriously disappeared. Could it be that they ran away with their lover, realizing the situation wasn't favorable?

If the dean gets angry, will we face misfortune?"

...
