Douluo Dalu System - Chapter 47

After confessing his love to Xiao Wu he was walking around with her for a while and then parted with her after since he still had to attend classes. After he was done with the classes he met with Zhu Zhuqing who had given him some handmade chocolates, he knew that she took off time from cultivation to make these chocolates despite being at a very crucial stage of her cultivation so he gave her a kiss to thank her, it was still awkward to kiss her since they just had their first kiss pretty recently but it was worth it for him.

He had also met Xie Lingling when he was going around the campus who had also prepared some chocolates for him, she still had her cold face but the deep red blush she had when she gave him the chocolates made her look very funny.

He had then given her a herb which he felt was quite suitable for her, it was an herb called Sanjeevani or the Miracle Herb which is said to have the capabilities to even heal gods, it’s effects are quite similar to the Yearning Heartbroken Red but its effects mainly focus on healing and curing and doesn’t boost a person’s cultivation much, but for Xie Lingling whose spirit focused completely on healing it might have effects which even he could not predict.

He only told her that this herb would help in her cultivation and may even improve her Nine Hearts Apple Spirit.

She took the herb and left which thanking him for the herb, he had bought the herb from the system so he was sure that it would help her. In the night he met up with Xiao Wu and they both just cuddled together while he combed her hair, he knew that combing her hair had been one of Xiao Wu’s favorite things apart from shopping and eating.

…

The next day,

Today was the day Dugu Bo and he were supposed to meet up regarding Dugu Yan’s poison so he had woken up early morning and prepared the medicines he would have to give her.

Around afternoon he finally saw Dugu Bo coming towards Shrek so he went to inform Flender regarding his arrival since he had already told him that Dugu Bo would soon visit Shrek and that he had also taken up the post of advisor to Shrek, Flender wasn’t too shocked at him coming here.

Flender along with grandmaster and erlong went to greet him at the entrance of Shrek, naturally, even Tang San had come along and when he saw Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan step out of the carriage he gave out a smile and said,

“Well old monster you took your time to come to visit me, I thought you would have come sooner but it seems like I’m not that important to you after all”

“Hmph, small monster we both know that you could have come to visit me but it seems that you don’t think of ‘me’ as a ‘friend’ anymore”

“Haha, well what can I say, I was quite busy these days”

“Let’s go inside shall we or are you going to make this friend of yours wait at the door all day??”

“Haha, well come on in, it’s your first time to Shrek academy and since your our advisor you can come here anytime if you feel bored in that mountain of yours”

Seeing the conversation those two were having every one of them were taken aback, Flender and grandmaster knew about their strange friendship so they weren’t as shocked as Liu Erlong and Dugu Yan but it was still strange to see this no matter how many times they’ve seen it.

“Ahem, Greetings Senior Poison Douluo, it’s quite an honor for us that you’ve accepted to become an advisor to our academy”

“….”

Flender seeing that he didn’t get back any response he didn’t bother talking anymore and stayed quite. They all soon left after telling Tang San to seek any of them if he needed them for anything, now that only Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan along with Tang San were left in the room, this was a room used by the academy to greet important guests and since it was a Titled Douluo visiting them they all felt it was a good enough reason to let Tang San use the room even if he is an advisor to the academy.

“Grandpa why are we here?? Couldn’t you have just asked him to come to Heaven Dou Academy??”

Seeing that he had truly spoiled his granddaughter Dugu Bo could only give out a wry smile at Tang San.

“Yan’er don’t be like that, Tang San is someone who I highly regard and he’s also your Fiance so you shouldn’t treat him like that”

“I know that you highly rega-… What did you just say??”

Even Tang San was surprised at how simply he had informed Dugu Yan that he was her Fiance, he had expected that he would have already told her about it but it seems that he just wanted to dump all the explanation part onto him so he chose to inform her only at this moment when he was present.

“Yeah, it was your grandfather’s idea, even when I said that I have someone I already love, he said ‘It’s fine, a lot of powerful men have more than one woman loving them so you shouldn’t worry about all that’ ”

“GRANDPA!!”

Even though he wanted Tang San to handle her fiery temper he ended up burning instead, he then had to console her for the next half an hour and then he completely gave up,

“You know Yan’er, Tang San is a nice guy, even your grandfather has to agree that his potential is greater than mine”

“Hmph, I don’t believe you, even if he’s younger than me and has the same cultivation it doesn’t mean anything, the only reason my cultivation is lacking is because of my poison and if that’s solved then I may even become the youngest Soul King in history, you said it yourself didn’t you grandpa”

“Well… I don’t think that’s possible anymore… You see the youngest Soul King right now is only 13 years old”

“WHAT, how is that possible!! I clearly remember that the youngest Soul King was only 22 years old how can it suddenly become 13 years, and being a Soul King at 13 is impossible, even those geniuses at the Spirit Hall can’t do it”

“That’s exactly my point, in fact, this young genius is none other than Tang San right here. Tang San if you could can you show your Spirit Rings”

Tang San who was enjoying his tea while watching Dugu Bo suffer under his daughter gave out a slight smile and after keeping his teacup down he lifted his right hand and a blue silver grass which had partially golden color came out and was surrounded by four rings – Two Yellow, One Purple, and One Black.

Seeing the black ring even Dugu Bo was shocked, he had known that Tang San was going to hunt for Spirit Rings before returning to Shrek but even he couldn’t expect that he would absorb a Black – Ten Thousand Year Ring.

But Dugu Bo knew that Tang San had left by himself to hunt for spirit rings and didn’t have anyone else to depend on to get a ten thousand year beast for its soul ring, this meant that he had killed and absorbed a Ten Thousand Year Beast all by himself. This was much more difficult than to just try absorbing the Soul Ring.

When Dugu Yan saw the Black Ring she felt scared, she had always thought that she was one of the top geniuses in the continent, though she wasn’t as talented as those people from the Spirit Hall she still had the right to say that she was one of the most talented in her age group.

But when she saw that Black Soul Ring circling the Blue Silver Grass, all her pride broke down and she even felt slightly inferior to Tang San at the moment.

“Though I only have four rings at the moment, I’ve already broken through to the Soul King stage and only need a Spirit Ring to advance right now, if I didn’t care about you then I would have long gone searching for my next Spirit Ring. As for the matter about me being your fiance you have all the right to decline, I hate to force a relationship between two people who don’t want it”

“… I need time to think about it”

Currently, Dugu Yan didn’t know how to face Tang San right now, Youngest Soul King and he even has a Black Ring as his fourth ring there would be no precedence of such an event in history. And when she thought that he was her fiance she didn’t know how to feel about that, Dugu Bo who sensed the awkwardness intervened,

“By the way, Tang San you said that you can cure her for sure, so does that mean you would use the same method which you did for me??”

“Yes, but I have something you would be interested in but to know that I need to know, Dugu Yan, have you absorbed any Spirit Bone”

“No, I didn’t absorb any spirit bones, because grandpa said that the spirit bones should have certain compatibility to your spirit if not it would only hinder you later on”

“I see, well the plan was to use a spirit bone and transfer all the poison onto it but that would make most bones useless, but while I was out hunting for my spirit rings I found an injured Jade Phosphor Serpent beast, the same best as your spirit and I was lucky enough to get this from it”

Saying that he took out a bone from Twenty Four Moonlights Bridge, this was a torso spirit bone and it had a jade green color on it, he had to use his [Forbidden Jade Hands] to take it out as even the bone was poisoned.

When Dugu Bo saw that he was shocked and said,

“Ten Thousand-year spirit bone!!”

This was a treasure among treasures to spirit masters, this was an item which could cause a war among kingdoms.

“I honestly can’t think of anyone else who would be more suitable to absorb this Spirit Bone apart from you and your granddaughter so I want you guys to decide whether we use this bone or not because this can also enhance her poison and since its a torso bone we can’t remove it no matter what like we can with the limb bones”

Listening to what Tang San said it was indeed right, though this was a rare treasure they can’t say if it would help them or harm them. But he then realized something important and asked Tang San,

“Wait, Tang San why don’t you absorb this bone?? Though it isn’t compatible with you, it’s still a Ten Thousand-year Spirit Bone and a torso bone at that, these are almost as rare as skull bones”
