Noticing Qi Lin's sudden gaze, Dugu Yan's heart rate instantly sped up by half a beat.
Oh no!
Can't look at him anymore!
Hurriedly averting her gaze and calming her inner turmoil, Dugu Yan quickly spoke, "Alright, let's go in quickly."
After speaking, Dugu Yan also swallowed a detoxification pill herself and was the first to step into the purple poisonous mist.
Qi Lin also reacted and followed closely behind.
Passing through the poisonous mist, a hill about four to five hundred meters high appeared in their line of sight.
Looking at the hill, a smile couldn't help but appear on Dugu Yan's face.
"My Grandfather and I live in the small valley behind the hill. There's also my Grandfather's medicinal garden there."
"My Grandfather said there are a lot of treasures in the medicinal garden. If you like something, just take it. Don't be polite with me."
"Then I definitely won't be polite with you, Yanzi!" Qi Lin chuckled and agreed.
"That's right!"
Yanzi waved her hand, speaking with great generosity.
Afterward, the two began to climb towards the mountaintop.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the hill, in a valley, Dugu Bo, who was meditating outside a red and white pool of water, suddenly opened his eyes.
Title Douluo powerhouses have extremely sharp senses, so the moment Qi Lin and Dugu Yan ascended the hill, he had already sensed them.
"Yan Yan is back!"
"And the one who came with her is that kid Qi Lin."
After meeting Qi Lin last time, Dugu Bo had remembered Qi Lin's aura.
Dugu Bo was currently contemplating how to make Qi Lin their Dugu Family's son-in-law. Seeing Qi Lin and Dugu Yan return together, a smile immediately appeared on his face.
At least Yan Yan and Qi Lin seemed to have a good relationship now. As long as he subtly pushed things along, there was a good chance.
However, first, Yan Yan currently had some favorable feelings towards that kid from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family. It would be better to help her break off that relationship first.
As for how to break it off?
A cold smile appeared on Dugu Bo's slightly gloomy face.
It doesn't matter. As long as he spreads the news that the Dugu Family's inherited toxins have backlash and affect future generations, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family will actively intervene.
Oh...
He also needed to add a piece of news: even he, the Poison Douluo, couldn't avoid the toxin backlash.
However, how should he reasonably spread this news?
Perhaps, he still needed to make a trip to the Nine Star Begonia Family and ask them for a favor to create a false impression.
The current generation's successor of the Nine Star Begonia Family had a good relationship with Yan Yan. They would help with this favor.
At that time, even if this kid Qi Lin really cured Yan Yan, it's estimated that no one would believe that a mere Soul King could solve a problem that even the Nine Star Begonia Family couldn't solve.
And the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family wouldn't dare to gamble.
Logical, perfect!
Standing up, Dugu Bo smiled with satisfaction, stepping forward. He seemed slow, but in reality, each step moved him dozens of meters away, like strolling in a courtyard.
(In the original work, one step was over ten meters, which is a bit funny, so let's just assume he wasn't moving at full speed.)
Before long, before Qi Lin and Dugu Yan reached the mountaintop, Dugu Bo had already appeared in front of them.
"Yan Yan, and also Qi Lin, you two are here."
As soon as Dugu Bo saw the two, his gloomy expression instantly became kind and amiable.
"Grandfather!"
Dugu Yan called out affectionately and excitedly.
Qi Lin also slightly cupped his hands towards Dugu Bo.
"Dugu Senior, we meet again."
"I apologize for this abrupt visit!"
Dugu Bo laughed heartily upon hearing this, saying, "Qi Lin, I'm happy that you came to see this old man with Yan Yan. I couldn't be happier."
"Let's talk as we walk."
"Okay!"
Along the way, Dugu Yan eagerly said to Dugu Bo, "Grandfather, the toxin backlash in my body has completely disappeared!"
Dugu Bo's pupils suddenly constricted upon hearing this, and his body trembled slightly.
Although he had known for a long time that with the effect of Qi Lin's Fifth Soul Skill, there was a real chance to cure Yan Yan, he hadn't expected the surprise to come so suddenly.
"Really... really, Yan Yan?"
Dugu Bo asked again, his voice trembling with excitement.
"Grandfather, it's true!"
"I really don't have to endure the toxin backlash anymore."
Receiving Dugu Yan's affirmation again, Dugu Bo couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"Hahaha, good, good!"
"From now on, our Dugu Family can finally get rid of this damned toxin backlash!"
After witnessing his son's death from toxin backlash, Dugu Bo laughed so heartily for the first time.
After a hearty laugh, he looked at Qi Lin, his expression solemn, and said, "Qi Lin, you saved Yan Yan, you saved the future of my Dugu Family. From now on, if there's anything you need from this old man, just ask."
Qi Lin smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Dugu Senior, you don't have to be like this. This was just a small favor for me."
Dugu Bo shook his head and said, "It might be a small favor to you, but to Yan Yan, it saved her life."
"So no matter how I thank you, this is what you deserve."
"This promise is permanently valid!"
Seeing this, Qi Lin had no choice but to say no more.
Before long, the three of them reached the top of the hill.
On the other side was a valley shrouded in mist.
"Below is my medicinal garden!"
After Dugu Bo finished speaking, he grabbed Qi Lin and Dugu Yan's hands, jumped, and landed steadily.
Qi Lin surveyed the surroundings of the valley. The internal space of the valley was not small, and in the central area of the valley was an oval-shaped hot spring.
The hot spring was not large, but it was divided into two areas. One area was scarlet red, and the other area was milky white.
The two different colors of hot spring water looked distinct and did not interfere with each other.
This was clearly the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well that almost every transmigrator would visit.
Around the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, various plants of different shapes and sizes were growing.
As expected, these were all rare treasures in the outside world.
And the immortal herbs that appeared in the original work were even rarer and priceless treasures in the world.
It could be said that if the Shrek Seven Devils in the original work hadn't had their fates changed by the immortal herbs, at most Tang San and Oscar would have been able to become gods.
At this moment, Dugu Bo noticed that Qi Lin seemed interested in his medicinal garden and couldn't help but smile proudly.
"The medicinal herbs in my garden are all rare and precious treasures. If you like any of them, and if I also recognize them and they are not dangerous, then I'll give them to you."
After speaking, Dugu Bo immediately added another sentence.
"However, don't move around randomly in this medicinal garden yourself. There are some medicinal herbs inside that are quite dangerous, and even I don't dare to easily touch the toxins they contain."
There was nothing he could do. Even Dugu Bo only recognized two or three tenths of the medicinal herbs in this garden.
Qi Lin smiled confidently and said, "Don't worry, Dugu Senior, I have my own way to avoid these poisonous medicinal herbs."
Qi Lin's Fourth Soul Skill, Natural Control, not only allowed him to control all plants within a certain area, but the moment he controlled a plant, he could understand all the information about the plant he controlled.
Poisonous or not poisonous, what functions and effects it had, Qi Lin would know everything as soon as he activated his soul skill.
