Chapter 99: Potential Stock
Dugu Bo finished speaking, and Dugu Yan looked at her grandfather in shock.
With countless questions in her mind, she wondered why, despite the situation, her grandfather insisted on arranging her marriage to Ye Qiu, fulfilling that bullshit engagement!
Then, she looked into Ye Qiu's eyes with a fierce expression, biting her lip and staring at him!
"Hehe." Ye Qiu chuckled, "Well, you know, this kid, I'm really not suitable. Miss Dugu should be sixteen or seventeen by now, and I'm only eleven!"
"Enough!"
Bang! Dugu Bo slammed his hand on the table in front of him, even Dugu Yan threw him a hateful look. This guy actually despised him in every possible way! Making up excuses so casually!
"Kid! You think I'm blind? You call this less than eleven? Are you kidding me? If you're looking for an excuse, at least make it a decent one!"
Dugu Bo was furious. This kid didn't know how to appreciate the situation. Even Yan Yan had been deceived by him. A nod from her and he would have a beautiful lady and the support of a Title Douluo.
This kid actually kept refusing!
"Elder! Ye Qiu didn't lie! The kid had some extraordinary experiences before, so his body developed a bit faster. He looks like an adult, but I assure you, Dugu Miss is already sixteen or seventeen, and I'm just eleven!"
Whoosh! Dugu Bo flashed and appeared in front of Ye Qiu, grabbing his wrist to check.
"Huh? You actually didn't lie?"
Looking at Ye Qiu strangely, Dugu Bo was even more satisfied. A young Spirit Master like him was quite rare!
Dugu Yan was also surprised, seeing Ye Qiu, who seemed so young, effortlessly overpowering Yu Tian Heng, a Spirit Expert at the 35th rank.
Then, a cold snort followed, and even though there was still hatred in her eyes, it couldn't change the fact that he was an unwanted suitor and a playboy!
Dugu Bo released Ye Qiu's hand and, looking at him with approval, found it hard to believe that such a young Grand spirit master existed!
Then he coldly snorted again, his eyes still filled with resentment. Even so, it couldn't change the fact that he was a scoundrel. Moreover, a cheating bastard!
Dugu Bo let go of Ye Qiu's hand, realizing that he couldn't push too hard, Seeing the embarrassed look on his face, especially when dealing with someone like Ye Qiu.
With his hands behind his back, he stepped past Ye Qiu, sighing.
"Ah! Forget it! It's your own matter; you handle it yourselves. I won't interfere too much."
"Phew." Ye Qiu also breathed a sigh of relief. It was really difficult. He even doubted why his old man set up such an engagement for him.
At this moment, Dugu Yan also walked to Ye Qiu. Her expression was icy. "Did I embarrass you, making it difficult for you?"
"Miss Dugu... Ah!"
Ye Qiu had just spoken when Dugu Yan raised her fist and gave him a punch.
"Hmph! Scoundrel!" Watching Ye Qiu, who was covering his eyes and bending over, Dugu Yan snorted again.
And she silently returned to her room.
"Hehe!" Dugu Bo, who had been observing the two all along, lightly chuckled when he saw his granddaughter's reaction.
His goal had been achieved.
With this groundless engagement, even if they didn't have such intentions initially, something might still develop between them. They would inevitably have various interactions.
He had also told Yan Yan that it was her parents' intention. He believed she would be more considerate!
Couldn't make it happen? No problem, with him around, nothing unexpected would occur!
This potential stock called Ye Qiu was now invested by the Dugu family! Even if a god of creation appeared, it wouldn't matter; Dugu Bo said so!
Turning around, he looked at Ye Qiu, whose left eye had a hint of purple.
"Cough!" Dugu Bo cleared his throat a few times, changing his triumphant expression to a somewhat lost one. Turning around, he looked at Ye Qiu.
"Kid! Are you okay?"
"I'm fine!" Ye Qiu activated the bones in his right leg, and the purple color around his eyes slowly disappeared.
"Yan Yan's temper is like this. Don't take it to heart!"
Ye Qiu shook his head.
"It's indeed my fault for being frivolous with Miss Dugu!"
"Since you're okay, let's talk about the antidote!"
"Okay! I understand!" Dugu Bo stepped forward, entering the shack. Suddenly, he noticed that the table there had been shattered by him. He had to lead Ye Qiu into the room.
The two talked for a long time in the room.
Ye Qiu had already explained the solution to the poison to Dugu Bo!
At the same time, through the conversation, Ye Qiu also understood why Dugu Yan's poison backlash was so severe!
After taking the Land Dragon Golden Melon, although her Martial Soul evolved into the Azure Phosphorus Serpent Emperor on the spot, the medicinal power had not been fully absorbed. Her Martial Soul was still evolving, transforming from a snake into a dragon!
No wonder the Tyrant Dragon Douluo Sect sent Yu Tianheng to get close to her. They must have noticed the signs of her Martial Soul evolving!
"Sigh~ I shouldn't have told her about the effects of the Land Dragon Golden Melon."
Dugu Bo also felt helpless. To allow his granddaughter to have some happy moments, he had kept the secret of her severe poison from her.
"Elder Dugu, rest assured. I will do my best to heal you and your grandson. However, I need some herbs around the Ice and Fire Spirituel Eyes."
Ye Qiu readily agreed, but he also didn't forget his original purpose for coming here.
"With your words, I feel relieved! As for those herbs, they should be yours in the first place. You handle it!"
Dugu Bo waved his hand, not caring much about those herbs.
After all, besides the giant chrysanthemum, he didn't recognize the others.
Moreover, when Ye Qiu became his grandson-in-law in the future, those things would also belong to the Dugu family!
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but let out a sinister laugh.
"Hey hey! Kid! But when Yan Yan's poison is almost resolved, you have to help her get a powerful soul ring! At least, she's your fiancée!"
Dugu Bo chuckled as he looked at Ye Qiu. Although he didn't know much about Ye Qiu's abilities, he could tell from the deeds of that benefactor.
Because of the Land Dragon Golden Melon, Dugu Yan, despite breaking through to the 40th rank early, she had been hesitant to obtain a soul ring, fearing that the poison might worsen!
Now it seemed like a blessing in disguise!
"..." Glancing at him speechlessly, Ye Qiu increasingly suspected that this damn engagement was made up by this old guy himself!
"Elder Dugu, let's not talk about these things. As for Miss Dugu's fourth soul ring, I will definitely help. After all, she still lacks a soul bone to store toxins."
"Hmph! Kid, what's wrong with my Yan Yan?" Dugu Bo said unhappily.
"Alright, alright!" Seeing Ye Qiu still wanted to argue, Dugu Bo impatiently waved his hand, not wanting to say more.
"Hmph! Go rest first; there's no rush for the antidote!"
"Well, then I'll go rest!" Ye Qiu bid farewell.
As he walked out of the room, he noticed that the moonlight was still shining from above, revealing the peculiar nature of this barrier!
He walked towards the room where he had lain down when he first arrived. On the way, he suddenly stopped.
In the vicinity of the , closer to the milky-white spring, a slender figure stood there, surrounded by the faint light emitted by strange flowers and plants.
Staring at the half-frozen spring, Ye Qiu was about to lift his foot to walk over, but he hesitated, considering something. Eventually, he continued walking towards his room.
However, he couldn't help but worry.
"Miss Dugu, standing around the Ice and Fire Spirituel Eyes for a long time might be harmful to your body. It's better to go back and rest early!"
After saying this, Ye Qiu silently looked at her for a few seconds. Seeing that she didn't move, he frowned, opened the door, and walked into his room!
"Brat! This stinky kid!"
Looking through the window, Dugu Bo scolded lightly, dissatisfied with Ye Qiu's inaction!
In a hurry, he walked out of the room.
