Chapter 32: Oh My, You're Blushing? Let Me See!

When Dugu Bo heard that it would only take "twenty years" to obtain the long-awaited method to detoxify, he could no longer hold back and slapped his thigh: "Good! I agree!"

"But how exactly will you detoxify me?"

This was the question that concerned Dugu Bo the most.

Gu Feng's lips curled slightly as he asked, "Senior, do you remember the opportunity I mentioned earlier? You must have seen that Land of Ice and Fire, right?"

Dugu Bo sighed and nodded, "As expected, I can't hide it from you. I do indeed have such a treasure land, but what does it have to do with detoxification?"

"The connection is significant. It's a crucial factor in whether you can detoxify or not."

"Is that true?" A trace of doubt flashed in Dugu Bo's eyes. He had possessed that treasure land for decades.

Over the years, apart from discovering that the herbs planted there grew faster and had superior efficacy compared to elsewhere, he hadn't noticed any other effects.

"Why would I lie to you? What do you have that's worth lying for?"

Gu Feng said with a look of disdain.

Hearing this, Dugu Bo pondered for a moment and finally understood, "Fair enough. In that case, I'll take you there."

At that moment, Dugu Yan's clear voice came from the courtyard, "Grandpa, have you finished talking?"

"Almost done, we'll be right in. Don't worry, this kid is fine," Dugu Bo responded loudly.

Before the words had even faded, Dugu Yan had already hurried out from the courtyard.

She stared intently at Gu Feng, scrutinizing him up and down, and then extended her jade-like hand to gently touch his face.

Gu Feng felt a delicate and soft sensation, but immediately afterward, a strong sense of shame surged in his heart.

In all his years, this was the first time he had been humiliated by a woman like this.

This was simply too much!

"Oh my, you're blushing?"

"Come, let me see…"

Dugu Yan's eyes were filled with mischief, as if she had discovered a new continent.

"It seems like he's really fine."

Seeing that Gu Feng was indeed unharmed, Dugu Yan finally relaxed completely.

Witnessing this scene, Dugu Bo felt his blood boil, his back teeth grinding audibly, and his gaze toward Gu Feng was as if he could devour him.

He hadn't forgotten what Gu Feng had said not long ago.

This brat, could he really have some intentions toward Yan Yan?

Thinking of this, Dugu Bo pretended to be nonchalant and casually asked, "By the way, kid, you said you're Yan Yan's junior. How old are you? What level is your Soul Power? And what's your Martial Soul?"

Gu Feng frowned, looking puzzled.

Is this an interrogation?

However, before Gu Feng could answer, Dugu Yan, standing beside him, giggled and chimed in first, "Grandpa, you have no idea, Gu Feng is amazing!"

"He's only six years old, but his Soul Power has already reached level 14, and his Martial Soul is a Bone Dragon!"

"Even Yu Tianheng is no match for him. I think his strength is almost catching up to mine."

After hearing this, Dugu Bo's expression froze, replaced by sheer astonishment.

He had seen Yu Tianheng's strength before. Although not as strong as Dugu Yan, it was still nothing to scoff at.

It was worth noting that Dugu Yan was two years older than Yu Tianheng.

Gu Feng is only six years old this year, yet he already surpasses Yu Tianheng in strength?

Wait! Dugu Bo suddenly seemed to have caught onto something crucial and urgently asked, "Yan Yan, what did you say his Soul Power level was again?"

"Level 14," Dugu Yan replied casually.

"How much?"

Dugu Bo could hardly believe his ears, his voice involuntarily rising a few pitches.

"Level 14, Grandpa. Is there really a need for such a fuss?"

Dugu Yan pouted, her expression one of helplessness.

Dugu Bo took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, but his heart was in turmoil, unable to settle.

A six-year-old with Level 14 Soul Power—what else could this be but Innate Full Soul Power?

A once-in-a-century Innate Full Soul Power, and it was right before his eyes.

"Gu Rong has a fine grandson."

Dugu Bo gave Gu Feng a deep look, unable to help but sigh in admiration.

At such a young age, his depth of character far exceeds that of ordinary people, and his talent is so extraordinary.

He is destined for greatness!

Dugu Bo finally managed to calm his emotions, and the slight displeasure he had felt earlier now completely dissipated.

Only someone like this is worthy of my service for twenty years.

Dugu Bo was the first to break the lingering silence, his gaze turning to Gu Feng as he said, "Kid, it's still early. If you want to stay for dinner, you can go later in the evening."

"But that place is quite far. If you don't want to delay, I can take you to that treasure spot right now."

A hint of eagerness flashed in Gu Feng's eyes, and he quickly responded, "Let's go now. Dinner can wait; it's no big deal."

He was more than eager to go right away.

Dugu Yan, standing to the side, looked at them in surprise, glancing between Dugu Bo and Gu Feng, and couldn't help but ask, "Grandpa, where are you two going?"

It had only been a short while since they last met, yet their relationship seemed to have grown so close?

She couldn't recall her grandfather ever being so amiable with a stranger before.

At this moment, Gu Feng turned his head and smiled at Dugu Yan, suggesting, "Sister Yan Yan, why don't you come along too?"

Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo immediately furrowed his brows, his gaze turning scrutinizing as he questioned Gu Feng, "Kid, what's the meaning of this?"

He had his reservations; he didn't want his precious granddaughter Dugu Yan to get involved in matters related to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

It was one thing for him to serve someone for twenty years, but Yan Yan absolutely could not be dragged into this.

Gu Feng, however, was confident, a self-assured smile spreading across his face as he chuckled and explained, "Senior, since we're going to detoxify anyway, why not solve Sister Yan Yan's issue along the way?"

In truth, regarding the specific methods of detoxification, he had already discussed and deliberated with Old Yi three days prior, and he was fully confident in his approach.

"What detoxification? What are you two even talking about? I don't understand any of this."

Although Dugu Yan was completely baffled, hearing that there was a chance to go out and have fun, she couldn't help but show a hint of excitement.

Dugu Bo was momentarily stunned, a flicker of hesitation in his eyes. He glanced at Gu Feng, then at Dugu Yan's expectant face, and found himself in a dilemma.

On one hand, he was worried about Dugu Yan being drawn into unknown risks.

On the other hand, Gu Feng's words did make some sense. If they could solve the problem together, it would naturally be for the best.

After pondering for a moment, Dugu Bo finally relented and let out a helpless sigh, nodding his head. "Fine, Yan Yan, you can come with us, but you must listen to everything I say and not act on your own."

After all, they were heading to the Sunset Forest. Although the Soul Beasts there were not as formidable as those in the Star Dou Great Forest, it still harbored significant dangers.

"Yay!" Dugu Yan's eyes lit up, and she was so excited she almost jumped for joy.

Although she had been doted on by Dugu Bo since childhood, she had also been overly protected and had never ventured far from home.

Even when it came to hunting Soul Beasts and absorbing Soul Rings, Dugu Bo had always captured the Soul Beasts himself and then hunted them for her.
