A Promise

Dugu Bo immediately shouted, "Quick, circulate your Soul Power!"

"Yes!"

Dugu Yan replied with difficulty, then immediately circulated her Soul Power, controlling it to force all the toxins in her body into her Soul Bone.

Under the pressure of Dugu Bo's Soul Power, the toxins in her body were forced into her meridians.

As soon as the toxins were forced out, Dugu Yan used her Soul Power to wrap them and circulate them to her right arm.

Dugu Yan had cultivated poison techniques since she was a child, and her body had long been infiltrated by toxins. Although the Detoxification Pill had removed most of the toxins, many still lurked in every corner of her body.

Drip, drip.

Countless beads of sweat not only soaked Dugu Yan's clothes but also the ground.

The process had lasted for more than two hours.

The two of them appeared to be motionless throughout, but the consumption on Dugu Yan was no less than that of a fierce battle.

However, to Dugu Bo's delight, the color of Dugu Yan's hair and pupils had changed.

This gave him hope.

He hurriedly encouraged her, "Hang in there, Yan Yan, it's working."

Dugu Yan no longer had the strength to reply. She closed her eyes and focused all her energy on circulating her Soul Power within her body.

The most difficult part of this process was that Dugu Yan could not summon her Martial Soul and could only rely on her body to resist.

Time gradually passed, and Dugu Yan's body gradually began to falter.

Dugu Bo felt extremely distressed, but he did not dare to relax. If he could not remove all the toxins in one fell swoop, it would be even more difficult to remove them next time.

A short pain is better than a long one.

Dugu Bo shouted loudly, "Wake up!"

This time, Dugu Bo mixed a trace of mental shock into his voice.

This shocked Dugu Yan, whose mind was muddled, and she mustered her last strength to circulate her Soul Power.

Dugu Bo could see that Dugu Yan was on the verge of collapse, but the toxins in her body had not been completely cleared.

The more stubborn toxins were left behind, the longer it would take to filter them out.

However, at this moment, the Detoxification Pill that she had swallowed before was still playing a powerful role.

Throughout the process, the medicinal power circulated with the Soul Power, transmitting to all parts of the body, and the stubborn toxins became milder under the effect of the medicinal power.

Soul Power suppression and Detoxification Pill.

The combined effect was very powerful, and the color of Dugu Yan's hair changed visibly.

Her hair color was a deep purple that did not exist on the continent.

This was because the hair color was invaded by toxins due to poisoning. Although the deep purple hair and Emerald Green pupils added a touch of otherworldly to Dugu Yan.

However, her original black hair and black pupils were more natural. Although Dugu Yan was also very painful, she felt more relaxed and comfortable as the toxins were cleared.

Finally, after more than two hours of painstaking persistence, Dugu Yan forced all the toxins into her Soul Bone.

"Success!"

When Dugu Bo saw Dugu Yan's hair turn into black strands, he knew that the detoxification was successful.

He hurriedly withdrew his Soul Power suppression.

"Careful!"

At the moment of completion, Dugu Yan lost consciousness and fell forward uncontrollably.

Dugu Bo caught Dugu Yan and carefully wiped the sweat from her face.

His usual cold and hard expression completely melted away at this moment.

Dugu Bo looked at Dugu Yan with endless tenderness and whispered, "Yan Yan, you've worked hard."

At this moment, Dugu Bo felt gratified, grateful, and also regretful.

However, fortunately, everything went smoothly, which finally relieved Dugu Bo's worried heart.

At this moment, Quan Yi's figure flashed through Dugu Bo's mind.

"This time, I really owe him a huge favor."

Although Dugu Bo was cold, he was by no means an ungrateful person. Quan Yi's method saved Dugu Yan, and this was a favor that needed to be repaid.

However, Dugu Bo felt inexplicably upset whenever he thought of Quan Yi.

It was the first time he had encountered such a difficult junior.

Now, with this matter, he was even more helpless against Quan Yi.

"Sigh~!"

Dugu Bo sighed.

...

A week later, after repeatedly checking Dugu Yan's body, Dugu Bo was completely certain that the toxins in Dugu Yan's body had been completely cleared.

From then on, when Dugu Yan cultivated her poison skills, she would store the toxins in her Soul Bone.

In this way, no matter how Dugu Yan cultivated in the future, it would not affect her body.

Moreover, forcing the toxins into the Soul Bone unexpectedly led to the strengthening of the Soul Bone Skill—Seed of Corrosion, greatly increasing the power of the skill.

The several toxins produced by Dugu Yan's Soul Skills mixed with the corrosive toxins in the Soul Bone, making them even more dangerous and difficult to resolve.

This greatly increased the strength of Dugu Yan, who used poison as a means of control.

After confirming that there were no problems, Dugu Bo returned to his Medicine Garden after more than a month.

As soon as Dugu Bo returned to the Medicine Garden, he found Quan Yi sitting in front of a medicinal herb that looked like a red jade Chinese cabbage, staring at it in a daze.

That medicinal herb was a special herb that had absorbed the extremely hot energy of the Spring Water.

The extremely hot aura emanating from it was so intense that even he could only stay for a short time.

However, Quan Yi seemed to have been sitting there for a long time, as could be seen from the burnt clothes on his body.

Seeing this scene, Dugu Bo also realized Quan Yi's special nature.

Fire Immunity.

Including Quan Yi's previous dive into the Spring Water, he had some guesses about Quan Yi's abilities.

Seeing that Quan Yi did not react to his arrival, Dugu Bo asked doubtfully:

"Hey, kid, what's so good about this thing?"

Hearing this, Quan Yi retracted his gaze and replied, "Nothing, just taking a look."

Dugu Bo warned, "I advise you not to overthink it. This thing is the most terrifying poisonous herb in this Medicine Garden. Its toxicity is so strong that even I can't stay here."

Quan Yi showed an indifferent expression and asked, "Senior seems to be in a good mood. Is there something good happening?"

Quan Yi saw that Dugu Bo's expression was much better than last time, and he roughly guessed the reason.

Dugu Bo felt a little embarrassed by Quan Yi's gaze, but he still relayed, "Your method of Forcing Poison into the Bone is indeed very effective."

"Oh, then according to the oath, we will be the co-managers of this treasure land from now on."

Dugu Bo felt a surge of frustration, but he still nodded with difficulty and said, "This time, I owe you a favor. In addition to co-management, I can promise to help you accomplish one thing, provided it doesn't violate my principles.

Kid, I'm rarely in such a generous mood, so cherish this opportunity."

Quan Yi was greatly surprised.

Dugu Bo was much easier to deal with than he had imagined. He hadn't even used his trump cards, and he had already 'conquered' him.

Moreover, according to Quan Yi's observation, Dugu Bo didn't seem to have solved his own poisoning problem yet.

According to their oath, as long as Dugu Bo hadn't solved his problem, then Quan Yi wouldn't be considered to have truly fulfilled the condition.
