"Hehehehe, Tang San, I will give another gift to you. Wait for me." Wu Lan laughed and began training his Laws.
While Wu Lan was training, Dugu Bo was struggling to suppress the poison in his body.
Far away from Wu Lan's cave, in the core of Sunset Forest, in Dugu Bo's medicine garden,
After the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan incident, the poison in his body suddenly acted up. However, considering his granddaughter's safety, he held back long enough to place Dugu Yan somewhere safe before rushing to his medicine garden, the only place that could suppress his poison.
two days have passed,
"Finally suppressed the poison, but the effect of this area is continuously decreasing. It is all because of those damned bastards stealing my herbs." The more Dugu Bo thought about them, the angrier he became.
After venting his anger, he calmed down.
"Now I have suppressed my poison. Let me go and see how Yan'er is doing." With that, he rushed toward Dugu Yan's cave.
But when he arrived and saw the empty cave, a bad premonition rose in his heart.
"Where did Yan'er go? Is she in danger?" Dugu Bo immediately began searching the surroundings for clues. Soon, he saw footprints heading toward the capital.
"If Yan'er has been found by the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, then her life will be in danger." His heart grew heavier as his worry for Dugu Yan increased.
With that, he rushed toward the capital to find her.
After reaching the capital, he searched every place Dugu Yan might be: his house, the imperial academy, restaurants, and everywhere else he could think of, but he did not find her.
With each passing second, the worry in his heart only grew.
It would take too long to search the entire capital himself, so he rushed toward Prince Xue Xing's palace.
"Prince Xue Xing, help me find my granddaughter, and I will owe you a favor." Upon arriving before Xue Xing, Dugu Bo did not waste a second and directly stated his request.
Hearing this, Xue Xing was overjoyed. Having a Title Douluo owe him a favor for such a small task was a tremendous gain with no loss.
"Senior Dugu Bo, do not worry. Even if I have to turn the entire capital upside down, I will find Dugu Yan as soon as possible."
Seeing Xue Xing's attitude, Dugu Bo nodded and continued searching on his own.
Xue Xing then ordered his subordinates to use all available manpower to complete the task as quickly as possible.
A few hours later, with such a large-scale mobilization, information about Dugu Yan finally arrived.
Reading the report, Xue Xing frowned.
"This is troublesome."
Dugu Yan was in the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. He also knew what had happened between Dugu Bo and that clan. Since both sides had a Title Douluo, the matter was extremely sensitive. Interfering rashly could impact the empire, so it was best for them to remain silent, while providing help when asked in order not to offend either side.
After Dugu Bo had poisoned members of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, Yu Yuanzhen would definitely treat him as an enemy.
If Xue Xing wished to gain Dugu Bo's favor, he would have to offend another Title Douluo, which would be a major loss.
He sighed in disappointment, frustrated at gaining so little, and said,
"Send this information to Senior Dugu Bo."
Meanwhile, Wu Lan finished training for a few hours and, not wanting to miss the show, used the space element to teleport back into his house in the capital.
In Wu Lan's house,
Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing were sparring. Both were using only physical strength without martial spirits while Bi Ji, Zi Ji, and Lingling watched from the sidelines.
Xiao Wu, who had followed Wu Lan the longest, had mastered the Xuan Tian Record techniques, and her soul rings were purely passive attribute boosts. Because of that, Xiao Wu had an overwhelming advantage.
As expected, Xiao Wu won.
"You lost, Zhuqing. Now you know how strong I am." Xiao Wu said smugly.
Before Zhuqing could respond, a mocking voice sounded.
"I do not know how strong you are, but I definitely know how dumb you are."
Hearing the familiar voice, Xiao Wu and the others turned toward the source and saw Wu Lan standing there at some point.
"you..."
Seeing Wu Lan, Xiao Wu instantly forgot the scolding she was preparing and rushed toward him.
"Brother!"
But how could Orchid allow that? She floated in front of Wu Lan, blocking Xiao Wu from getting close.
"You dumb rabbit, stay away from my master." Orchid emphasized the words 'my master'.
Seeing this, Xiao Wu had to stop.
"You useless weed, how dare you stop me? If you don't move aside, I will use you as fertilizer."
Xiao Wu and Orchid immediately started their usual fight, and soon the angry Xiao Wu was chasing Orchid around.
Seeing this, Wu Lan and the others laughed at their playful actions.
"Okay, okay, stop. Do not fight anymore." Wu Lan eventually called them to stop.
"Hmph, since Brother said it, I will forgive you this time." Xiao Wu declared proudly.
"If Master had not stopped me, I would have blown you away," Orchid shot back without backing down.
"Alright, calm down. I will take you to see a show later." Wu Lan changed the topic.
Hearing this, Xiao Wu and the others, including Lingling, became curious.
"Brother, tell me how Tang San and Yu Xiaogang are going to suffer." Xiao Wu asked, immediately guessing what Wu Lan had planned.
"Oh? Rabbit, how did you guess?" Wu Lan was surprised by Xiao Wu's question.
"Brother, we have been together since childhood. I know you better than anyone. So tell me." Xiao Wu replied with a smile, happy that she understood her brother so well.
"It is not fun if I explain it. Let us watch directly." Wu Lan patted her head gently, He felt a warm in his chest at how well Xiao Wu understood him, and his smile became even more playful as he teased her.
