Chapter 90: Agreement

No wonder her toxins erupted prematurely; it turns out her martial soul evolved! But! Why did this happen? How did her martial soul evolve? In Ye Qiu's inquisitive gaze, her two straight, long legs slowly merged into one, transforming into a long snake tail, her willowy waist swaying gently to maintain balance. A diamond-shaped, emerald-green scale appeared on her forehead, her eyes turned vertical, her expression ice-cold, as if devoid of any human emotions. Dugu Yan's voice was chilling. "Although Lingling has told me that your soul skills are strange, now it seems I really need to see for myself!"

Although Ye Qiu was eager to know the cause of the changes in Dugu Yan, he had no chance; she had already started!

A hint of purple light suddenly flashed in Dugu Yan's eyes, and purple soul rings burst under her, covering the snake tail's scales with a layer of purple poison mist. Her voice became icy, and purple smoke emanated from her mouth. "Third soul skill, Azure Phosphorescent Purple Poison!"

Purple poison gas surged out, leaving behind scorched ground and walls wherever it passed.

Ye Qiu's eyes blossomed like a hexagram.

The Divine Might space had been activated.

The purple mist penetrated his body.

At this point, his body was completely isolated from this space. There was no need to worry about being harmed by the poison.

The purple mist didn't dissipate and continued to fill the room, gradually filling the interior space.

Outside the door, Ye Lingling suddenly noticed poisonous mist seeping out through the crack.

She immediately stood up, knocking on the door.

"Yan Zi!"

"Don't come in! We're just sparring!"

Dugu Yan shouted outside.

Yu Tian Heng also noticed the commotion here, a hint of delight flashing across his face.

"I didn't expect them to actually fight. It seems the negotiation has failed!"

"Yan Zi! If you need help, just call me anytime!"

Yu Tian Heng shouted from outside and then walked around this lounge, keeping a distance.

"Humph! Pretentious."

Ye Lingling snorted coldly.

Inside the room, the poisonous mist had become very dense.

But Ye Qiu remained steadfast.

After a brief shock, he had already calmed down.

Frowning, he stood opposite Dugu Yan.

"Miss Dugu, I think we can have a good talk!"

However, she seemed not to hear his voice, as if she had found something fun to play with.

Holding a dagger she took from her soul device, she kept slashing through Ye Qiu's body.

Like cutting through fluff, it posed no hindrance.

A cold smile hung on her lips.

"Is this the soul skill Lingling hasn't seen before? Indeed mysterious! But any soul skill has its weaknesses. I wonder if yours has a time limit?"

Ye Qiu's heart shivered, sighing inwardly. It was indeed taught by a Title Douluo; she could think of this.

Currently, his Divine Might space phase indeed had a maximum duration of three minutes, with each additional soul ring increasing it by one minute.

Previously, no one had been able to make his Divine Might space phase last so long.

Of course, this time he willingly stood here for this reason.

"Miss Dugu, I just want to make a deal with Miss Dugu, or perhaps, one of the his highness's subordinates!"

Dugu Yan chuckled triumphantly.

"Hehe. Are you getting anxious now?"

" Afraid? Not to that extent. It's not that I can't do anything to you, I just don't want to lose my temper."

Ye Qiu shook his head, ignoring Dugu Yan's expression, and continued.

"Besides, the one who should be anxious is you, right?"

Holding the dagger and trimming her nails, Dugu Yan raised her eyelids slightly, looking at him amusingly.

"What do you mean by that?"

Raising his foot, Ye Qiu walked straight to her.

"Stand still! Huh?"

Seeing him approach, Dugu Yan swung the dagger, but she couldn't touch or stop him at all.

Ye Qiu suddenly accelerated and passed through Dugu Yan.

At the same time, his calm and slightly triumphant voice echoed.

"You shouldn't be in a hurry, right? If you can't control the toxins, the day when you meet your end is not far away, is it?"

Standing behind her, smiling.

"Besides! You wouldn't want your grandfather to be tormented all the time, would you?"

Facing away from Ye Qiu, the smile on Dugu Yan's face finally began to fade.

She now understood why he took this journey— to tell her.

For him, her soul skill meant nothing; he could just leave!

The playful expression vanished from her face, replaced by seriousness.

Turning around, she faced Ye Qiu.

"Hehe. Why should I believe you when you claim you can save me with just empty words?"

For this question, Ye Qiu was well-prepared.

"When his highness, Poison Douluo, experiences an itchy sensation on both sides during rainy weather... Also, around three in the morning, Senior Dugu experiences needle-like pain on the top of his head and the soles of his feet, with the whole-body convulsing, lasting at least half an hour!"

"I assume Miss Dugu has already suffered from this kind of pain!"

Dugu Yan looked at him in shock, never expecting that Ye Qiu would be so clear about the symptoms of her grandfather and herself.

This undoubtedly made Ye Qiu's words more credible.

Dugu Yan frowned, showing a hint of hesitation.

"Can you live well? Who wants to die?"

"What deal? Speak quickly!"

Ye Qiu didn't beat around the bush.

"I can detoxify you and your grandfather, but I need Miss Dugu to agree to one thing."

Dugu Yan frowned, looking troubled.

"I can't agree to your request right now! I can't act as the master for my grandfather!"

"No problem! You can convey it for him or take me to meet his highness personally!"

"Hmm?" Dugu Yan looked at him in surprise, not expecting that he would dare to meet her grandfather.

This made her believe Ye Qiu's words a bit more.

"Miss Dugu, what do you think?"

Ye Qiu looked at her calmly.

"Fine! I can take you to see my grandfather!" Without further hesitation, Dugu Yan nodded directly.

Coincidentally, today, after Dugu Bo sent her out, he was still in the residence in Heaven Dou City.

"I wonder when?"

Ye Qiu also felt a bit pleased, getting one step closer to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes.

"Hehe." Dugu Yan chuckled lightly, playing with her emerald-green nails.

Her eyes glanced at Ye Qiu.

"We can go now! As long as you dare."

"Hehe! I wasn't joking just now, but I heard that his highness has a strange temper. You might need Miss Dugu to help out then."

"You better really have a way to detoxify, or I can't guarantee that you won't be missing something on your body! Hmph!"

Dugu Yan snorted coldly, slowly retracting the surrounding purple mist.

Watching the slowly dissipating purple mist around, Ye Qiu frowned; his time was running out!

"Miss Dugu, I'll wait for you outside!"

Without waiting for her reply, he directly passed through the wall.

Looking at the wall where he left, Dugu Yan began to calculate in her mind.

"Perhaps Lingling's idea is right. This guy indeed has the strength, but he's too annoying!"

...

"Yah~"

Just as he walked outside, he almost collided with Ye Lingling.

"Ye Qiu! Where's Yan Zi? Why are you the only one coming out!"

Ye Lingling suppressed the astonishment in her eyes, sounding a bit worried.

"Phew~" Taking a breath of fresh air outside, Ye Qiu smiled.

"Don't worry, Miss Dugu will be out soon."

At the same time, Yu Tian Heng approached, questioning.

"Kid! Where's Yan Zi? What did you do to her?!"
