After the royal investigator, Misia, arrived in Beidi City, he was informed that Cubero had already set off for the capital to report on his duties.
He then went to Fickless Territory to visit Marquis Fickless, who was seriously injured and unconscious. Afterwards, he returned to Beidi City and temporarily acted as the city lord, presiding over the daily affairs of Beidi City.
Walter retracted his claws and patiently lay dormant.
The royal family waited for a long time without seeing Lord Cubero return to report on his duties, and defined him as missing. Everyone knew that this disappearance was tantamount to death, and Emperor Xue Ye unleashed his thunderous fury once again.
Then, the anticipated turmoil in the Beidi did not occur, and the situation fell into a strange balance.
Apart from the two sons of Marquis Fickless running around, engaging in open and secret struggles for the position of Marquis, there were no major disturbances.
The daily training of the Northern Academy Squad continued in an orderly manner, but Captain Amon never participated, and Yan Jin rarely participated either.
The snow lotus that Walter gave to Yan Jin was given to Lei Yin as a gift. After Lei Yin consumed it, his soul power level increased from the original level 31 to level 36.
Compared to immortal herbs, snow lotus was obviously much inferior. Although the level increase was not much lower, it lacked the improvement of cultivation talent.
On a sunny morning, a merchant team composed entirely of Amons set off from the Beidi and headed towards Hanhai City.
To avoid being detected for abnormalities, not all the Amons in the merchant team revealed their soul master talents.
Apart from a few Amons such as the merchant team manager and guards who displayed Soul Ancestor strength, the remaining coachman Amons and handyman Amons were like ordinary people.
The Amons carried some Beidi specialties on the carriages, hawking or purchasing some goods along the way, heading west as if they were truly a merchant team.
...
In Sunset Forest, Dugu Bo, who had been in secluded meditation without any results, walked out of the canyon to relax in Heaven Dou City. He was invited by Prince Xue Xing to be a guest at his mansion.
Coincidentally, the Shrek Academy group, at the invitation of Qin Ming, went to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy to discuss the merger of Shrek into the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
Xue Beng and Xue Xing were worried about the further expansion of Crown Prince Xue Qinghe's power, so they interfered.
Under their obstruction, the academy's merger was unsuccessful. The Shrek group left in anger, and Dugu Bo also learned from his granddaughter Dugu Yan's account that Tang San had broken his snake venom through some method.
This piqued his interest, and he wanted to find out the reason, so he directly took action and captured Tang San, who was heading to the Blue Tyrant Advanced Soul Master Academy after leaving the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
Tang San, who was brought to Sunset Forest by Dugu Bo, woke up slowly, and the first thing he did was mock Dugu Bo: "Your poison is just trash!"
Dugu Bo was furious, but Tang San revealed the fact that he was suffering from severe poisoning, which made him stunned.
How come another kid saw that I was poisoned by myself? Could it be that the previous kid was not afraid of death and leaked the secret?
No, he was poisoned by me, he shouldn't be so unwise... Could this kid be Amon's so-called backup plan?
"Do you know Amon?" Dugu Bo asked with a frown, the killing intent in his eyes also lessened.
Dugu Bo didn't expect Amon to win the Soul Master Competition championship, he was just waiting for him to come and work under him obediently in two years.
He was interested in Amon's divergent thinking. After all, a correct idea can make research work go much smoother.
Since Tang San might be Amon's friend, maybe he also has some good ideas, so his attitude was much kinder.
Tang San was puzzled by the change in Dugu Bo's attitude, "Who is Amon?"
Seeing that Tang San's expression did not seem fake, the killing intent in Dugu Bo's eyes resurfaced, "Since you don't know Amon, how did you know that I was poisoned?"
He was no longer prepared to let Tang San leave alive, and frankly admitted that he was poisoned.
Tang San was sweating profusely, and said quickly:
"Isn't this obvious? Do you feel increasingly intense itching on both sides of your ribs on rainy days? Twice each at noon and midnight, lasting for more than an hour each time? Also, around the third watch of the night, do you feel needle-like stinging pain in the top of your head and heart, with spasms all over your body for half an hour, making you wish you were dead?"
Seeing that he said it in such detail, Dugu Bo was also stunned. The previous Amon didn't say it so carefully... Thinking that this kid has something, the killing intent greatly reduced.
"You have some skills, can you cure the poison in my body?" Dugu Bo asked.
Seeing that there was a turning point, Tang San's anxiety and unease gradually subsided, and he tried to take the initiative. He snorted coldly and said lightly:
"Even if I can cure it, I won't cure it for you. You can kill me. You will only die more miserably than me, and your beautiful granddaughter will end up like you."
Life begins at seventy, Tang San expected that Dugu Bo would not care about himself, but he would not care about his granddaughter.
Tang San didn't know that a Titled Douluo could live for three hundred years, but one thing was right, Dugu Bo cared a lot about his granddaughter.
However, after Amon gave him the idea, Dugu Bo was already able to detoxify his granddaughter, only lacking a high-quality soul bone. Now, what was troubling him was only how to detoxify himself.
"Are you threatening me?" Dugu Bo's eyes flashed with coldness, and with a wave of his hand, a light green mist enveloped Tang San.
"Ah ah ah ah..." Tang San let out a hysterical scream. He felt that every muscle and every inch of his skin was being gnawed by ants and burned by flames.
No, this is not right... How could he not care about his granddaughter? Could it be that he is really a cold and ruthless person... But from his previous interactions with Dugu Yan at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, he doesn't seem like it...
Barely regaining some sanity in the pain, Tang San gritted his teeth and shouted: "Stop, I can detoxify you!"
Dugu Bo withdrew the poisonous mist and said with a sneer, "Boy, weren't you very tough?"
Tang San couldn't help but retort sarcastically: "I just didn't expect you to be so vicious, not even caring about your own granddaughter."
Dugu Bo's expression turned cold, and he waved his hand again, enveloping Tang San in poisonous mist, letting him struggle in pain, wailing and screaming, until a quarter of an hour later, he withdrew the poisonous mist again.
"Kid, don't test my patience."
Tang San twitched, and it took a long time to recover. He looked at Dugu Bo with deep hatred, and a hint of fear that he himself could not detect.
Damn it, damn it, damn it!
If I don't avenge this, I, Tang San, swear I won't be human! He shouted madly in his heart.
He lowered his head, covering his face with his hair to prevent his hatred from being detected by the other party, took a few deep breaths, adjusted his emotions, and then raised his head again.
"Speak, how do you plan to detoxify me?" Dugu Bo asked.
This time, Tang San didn't say anything sarcastic, and tried his best to restrain his emotions, and asked in a calm tone:
"If I say it, won't I be worthless to you? Would I be so stupid?"
Dugu Bo smiled contemptuously: "Maybe you have some brains, but you are definitely not smart. Simply explain your ideas, and I will judge for myself. If it is feasible, we will continue to talk."
