Lu Feng looked up and saw Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan standing in mid-air, looking at him.
As soon as Dugu Bo landed, he rushed impatiently towards the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, presumably to find evidence of Tang Si's secret snacking.
"Tang Si, my grandfather didn't play any tricks on you, did he?" Dugu Yan walked over to Lu Feng and asked with some concern.
Dugu Yan knew her grandfather's temper all too well.
The last time, the grand steward of the imperial palace had even come to her crying.
Taking a eunuch to a brothel?
Only her grandfather was capable of such a thing.
Tang Si was a master of poison, so her grandfather's interest in him would surely be even greater. Who knows what kind of tricks he might have come up with to tease him.
"Grandfather just let you sleep here?" Dugu Yan said with a hint of anger, looking at the blankets under Tang Si.
Tang Si was, after all, a friend of hers, and a physician she had invited back.
How could her grandfather treat him like this?
"Miss Dugu has misunderstood," Lu Feng hurriedly explained.
Just as he was about to continue, Dugu Bo ran over excitedly from the edge of the medicine garden. "Hahaha, kid, my medicine garden is missing two herbs. Confess honestly, did you secretly eat them?"
A faint smile appeared at the corner of Lu Feng's mouth. He held his head high and said, "A little dog ate them!"
"Hiss~! Good kid, you're ruthless!"
Dugu Bo couldn't help but gasp.
He had lived for seventy or eighty years, but this was the first time he had seen someone so thick-skinned and so brazenly righteous.
He had originally thought that Tang Si would secretly pick the herbs.
He had never expected that when he went to inspect the medicine garden just now, he found that the other party hadn't even bothered to fill in the holes from digging up the herbs.
At this moment, Lu Feng said seriously, "Senior, Miss Dugu's third soul ring has been delayed for almost half a month. Let's discuss the matter of detoxification first."
Dugu Bo nodded. As soon as his granddaughter was mentioned, he put away his playful expression.
"After hearing your 'weapon-type soul skill' idea, I consulted a large amount of information. Soul masters who possess this type of soul skill all have powerful attributes in their own martial souls. For example, lightning, fire, frost, and so on."
"Only if one's own special effect attribute is strong enough can it make up for the lack of an attack skill."
"With Yan Yan's own poison attribute, paired with a weapon-type soul ring, it is indeed a viable path. However, this type of special soul beast is not easy to find. Kid, do you have any recommendations?"
Hearing this, Lu Feng also put on a contemplative look.
In fact, he had a plan in his heart long ago, but if he were to say it directly, wouldn't it seem like he had 'premeditated' it?
After about a few minutes, Lu Feng slowly began to speak, "Has senior ever heard of the Mermaid Clan? This is a soul beast with a human head and a fish body, which lives in the great sea. Their attack methods are mostly sound waves. Some special mermaids also use weapons."
"Among them, the most common weapon is a harp that has evolved from their fishtail."
"The book records that after some sea soul masters killed this type of mermaid, the soul ring they obtained was precisely a harp."
Dugu Bo thought for a moment and shook his head. "Not suitable. This soul ring does not match Yan Yan's poison attribute."
Lu Feng lowered his head and began to ponder again.
Suddenly, Dugu Bo thought of something and said with some excitement, "Kid, I have thought of a special kind of soul beast, the Medusa."
"When this old man was hunting for his eighth soul ring, I once broke into a Medusa colony. Recalling it now, there were indeed snake-people using weapons, it seemed to be a bow and arrow?"
Hearing this, Lu Feng also said 'excitedly', "Medusa, Medusa, how did I not think of that?"
"A soul beast like the Medusa possesses extremely strong control effects and poison abilities, which is a perfect match for Miss Dugu's martial soul. Even if she doesn't obtain a weapon-type skill, she will definitely obtain another powerful soul skill."
"If she can obtain a bow-type soul skill, Miss Dugu can then use her soul power to condense arrows, and paired with her own powerful poison attribute, it would simply be like giving a tiger wings."
At this moment, Lu Feng cupped his hands at Dugu Bo and said, "Senior is truly a Titled Douluo, knowledgeable and experienced. This knowledge can't be found in books."
In fact, the soul beast Lu Feng had prepared for Dugu Yan was also the Medusa.
However, he had deliberately taken a roundabout way, using the mermaid soul beast as a guide, to have these words come from Dugu Bo's own mouth.
"Hahahaha! When this old man was famous in the soul master world, you kid weren't even born yet. But you do have some insights. Many continental soul masters have never even heard of a soul beast like the mermaid."
Dugu Bo laughed loudly. He put his left hand behind his back, stroked his beard with his right, the proud expression on his face completely unconcealed. It was clear that he was very pleased with Lu Feng's words.
"Hmph!" Dugu Yan pouted with dissatisfaction as she watched the two of them engage in commercial flattery.
This old man and this young boy, how come they looked more like a real grandfather and grandson?
"Haha, my good Yan Yan, what's wrong? We plan to hunt a Medusa for your third soul ring. What do you think?" Dugu Bo walked up to Dugu Yan and said with a smile.
"Hmph, since you two have discussed it, let's set off," Dugu Yan said proudly.
"Perfect. I know there's a Medusa colony in the Sunset Forest. Kid, do you want to go with us?"
As he spoke, Dugu Bo's eyes darted around. He took Dugu Yan with one hand, walked over to Lu Feng, and directly lifted him into the air by his clothes.
"You kid must come with me. Otherwise, this medicine garden of mine will probably be completely ruined by a 'little dog'."
"Hehe, it would be my honor to obey!"
The three of them left in a hurry and returned in a hurry.
After the group arrived at the Medusa's territory, Dugu Bo released his Titled Douluo aura, and a large number of soul beasts were directly knocked unconscious.
The generation of a soul skill was related to the soul beast's own attributes and characteristics. Although there was no absolute law, through the efforts of countless generations of soul masters, a set of patterns had been roughly figured out.
The Medusa had three main characteristics: the first was poison, and the second was control.
Dugu Bo's eighth soul skill had come from this type of soul beast. He had even obtained a head-type soul bone of about fifty thousand years from it, gaining a powerful petrification skill.
The third characteristic of the Medusa was that the soul power weapons it could condense were mostly bows and arrows. Moreover, generally only male snake-people would have this skill.
Dugu Yan killed a male snake-person of about one thousand five hundred years and immediately began to absorb the soul ring.
As expected, what she obtained was a bow-type weapon soul skill.
"Kid Tang, what should we do now?" Dugu Bo asked.
For the first time ever, he did not call Lu Feng 'kid' directly but added his surname.
During their physical contact just now, Dugu Bo had roughly figured out his real age through Lu Feng's spine.
A level twenty-six Soul Grandmaster under the age of ten!
Such monstrous talent, even the legendary innate full soul power probably couldn't achieve that.
Regardless of whether he had other powers behind him, investing in such a genius while he was still weak would surely be a profitable business!
"This is just the first step. The poison in Miss Dugu's body still needs to be guided step-by-step to be slowly transferred into the weapon. At the same time, we also need to develop some special medicines to regulate her body."
"My master once gave me a pill recipe for a 'Nine Revolutions Transformation Dragon Pill'. And coincidentally, the main medicinal ingredients for refining this pill are in senior's medicine garden."
Lu Feng said in a loud voice, "I need senior to help me find a pill cauldron to refine the medicine. If everything goes smoothly, it can be refined in less than half a month."
"Good, Kid Tang, Yan Yan, you two stay here and don't move. This old man will be right back," after Dugu Bo spoke, without waiting for the two to respond, he shot up into the sky and disappeared over the horizon.
"Grand..."
Dugu Yan looked at Dugu Bo's retreating figure, but the word on the tip of her tongue was not spoken.
She looked back at Lu Feng and was immediately at a loss.
Her own grandfather was so at ease, leaving her alone with a stranger?
However, Dugu Yan quickly regulated her breathing and said calmly, "Tang Si, my grandfather is sometimes this impatient. You'll get used to it. Come with me, I'll take you to rest."
Halfway up the mountain, Dugu Yan brought Lu Feng to the outside of two caves.
"This big one is where my grandfather usually lives. There's food and drink inside. I live right next door. If you have any problems, feel free to come and find me."
Dugu Yan brandished her pink fist in front of Lu Feng and said 'viciously', "Hmph, but if you dare to sneak in in the middle of the night, be careful of my snake poison!"
"As you command, my lady!" Lu Feng said seriously.
"Hmph, the air in the mountains is damp, and it often rains at night this month. You should cover yourself well with a blanket at night," after speaking, Dugu Yan walked into the adjacent cave without looking back.
Lu Feng shook his head and walked into the stone chamber belonging to Dugu Bo.
The moonlight gradually dimmed, and dark clouds gathered. In the latter half of the night, it began to rain lightly.
"Mmm~"
In a half-awake, half-asleep state, Lu Feng suddenly opened his eyes. He seemed to have heard Dugu Yan's painful groan.
