Chapter 260: Gu Rong: How Did My Rongrong Fall for This Scumbag Su Ming?!

Su Ming, although not touching a girl for the first time, still couldn't help but feel amazed every time. Why were girls so soft? Even though they were both soul masters, girls barely showed any muscle definition compared to men.

However, this wasn't the time to dwell on such thoughts. Su Ming and Ye Lingling simultaneously released their martial spirits and spirit power.

In an instant, their spirit powers fused effortlessly, without any resistance. The sensation was so pleasant that it surprised Su Ming—his and Ye Lingling's martial spirits were a perfect 100% match!

Su Ming couldn't help but suspect that the system might have given him a backdoor advantage. Otherwise, how could they be such a perfect match?

On the Douluo Continent, even the rare few capable of using spirit fusion techniques didn't have a 100% compatibility rate.

As far as Su Ming knew, even in the distant future, Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong's fusion wasn't a full 100%. But that, in his opinion, was just Tang San pulling strings behind the scenes. Otherwise, could a Spirit Eye martial spirit really fuse with a Butterfly spirit?

After a brief moment, they let go of each other's hands, both confirming that they had the potential to perform a spirit fusion technique. However, for that to happen, their relationship would need to deepen, and they would have to train together.

It would be a long process. Obviously, Su Ming wasn't about to force anything. There was no need. As long as they built a solid bond, their compatibility would naturally improve.

They could take their time once they enrolled at Heaven Dou Royal Academy. Su Ming was curious about what kind of fusion technique he and Ye Lingling might produce.

Turning his attention to Dugu Yan, Su Ming smiled. "Alright, your turn. Tell me, what do you want to know?"

Dugu Yan: Weren't you the one who said I was poisoned?

Taking a deep breath, Dugu Yan asked, "Su Ming, how did you know I was poisoned? Why haven't I felt anything?"

Su Ming replied, "Maybe it's because I've read a lot of books. You probably don't have a deep understanding of your martial spirit."

Dugu Yan: …

Cough "Just kidding. First, look at your hair color. As far as I know, there's no one else on the continent with such a shade. Also, think back—your hair didn't always look like this when you were younger, right?"

"Another clue is my martial spirit. It contains strong life energy and is sensitive to toxins, so I could detect the poison within you. And it's not minor."

The second part was completely fabricated by Su Ming. After all, Dugu Yan wouldn't know any better.

"Your martial spirit was originally the Jade Phosphor Serpent, right? I'm not sure what caused it to evolve early, but while this benefits you in some ways, it also comes with drawbacks. The poison in your system has deepened due to your martial spirit's evolution. You haven't felt it yet because your current strength isn't high enough for the poison to fully manifest."

Dugu Yan, now excited, asked, "Since you called me out, does that mean you can help me detoxify?"

Su Ming nodded. "Of course, but I can't do it for free."

Dugu Yan knew what Su Ming wanted but didn't want to be the one to bring it up. "How about this—you can negotiate with my grandfather. He may be a bit solitary, but he won't harm you when it comes to saving my life. It'll be a fair trade."

"And before that, I'll make sure to introduce you to the academy under my grandfather's name."

Su Ming smiled. That's exactly what he wanted. He needed to contact her grandfather to pinpoint the location of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, a place Dugu Yan knew nothing about. Negotiating with her alone wouldn't have helped.

For some reason, Dugu Yan felt underestimated…

With that matter settled, Su Ming mentally braced himself to deal with the other issue: facing Gu Rong. He hoped the old man wouldn't beat him up. Not that Su Ming would just stand there and take it.

Soon, Su Ming arrived at Ning Rongrong's door. After a brief hesitation, he knocked. The door opened, and Ning Rongrong's worried face appeared.

At the same moment, Su Ming spotted Gu Rong sitting inside, clearly waiting for him.

The moment Gu Rong saw Su Ming, the aura of a Titled Douluo filled the room. He spoke in a deep voice, "Get in here! You'd better give me a reasonable explanation. I may not be her father, but I'm still her grandfather!"

The release of Gu Rong's aura quickly attracted the attention of others in the hotel. To the Shrek group, this familiar pressure was unmistakable: Bone Douluo was here! But why?

Tang San was relieved he hadn't caused any trouble today. If Bone Douluo had been present during a fight, they'd have been done for.

However, the fact that Bone Douluo was angry so late at night puzzled everyone.

No one dared leave their rooms to investigate, fearing they might get caught in the crossfire.

Su Ming, on the other hand, didn't feel particularly overwhelmed by Gu Rong's aura. Thanks to his unique physique, the pressure, while intense, seemed more for show. Otherwise, the room wouldn't still be intact.

Resigned, Su Ming stepped inside, hoping Gu Rong would be reasonable. He admitted he was a bit too sentimental…

Ning Rongrong looked at the two with concern. "Su Ming…"

Su Ming gave her a reassuring smile. "Leave it to me."

Gu Rong's stern voice cut through the tension. "Rongrong has already told me most of it, but I want to hear it from you. Explain yourself!"

After a brief pause, Su Ming recounted the situation with him, Xiao Wu, and Ning Rongrong. Internally, Gu Rong clenched his teeth in frustration. Su Ming had been close to Xiao Wu for six years, had even been involved with her, yet still pursued his precious Rongrong!

Gu Rong struggled to contain his anger. He had always thought highly of Rongrong's judgment. After all, she was their family's little princess, with high standards.

Sure, Su Ming was outstanding in many ways, but that didn't change the fact that he was a scoundrel!

To Gu Rong, Su Ming, having already formed a relationship with Xiao Wu, was shameless for trying to court Rongrong too. He couldn't fathom how Ning Rongrong had developed feelings for Su Ming despite knowing about his relationship with Xiao Wu.
