Douluo: Subversion Begins with the Arrival of the Traveler

Chapter 30 That’s it
Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo walked up to Kong, and after a brief thought, he knelt on one knee, clasped his fists, and pleaded:
"Sir, please forgive me for my offense. If anyone can help me now, I'm afraid it's only you, sir!"

Upon hearing this, Xue Qinghe and the others all looked over here.

Others may not know, but he is very familiar with this old man.

The reason why he came to the Tiandou royal family to play the trick of replacing the prince with a cat, disguising himself as Xue Qinghe, the son of Emperor Xue Ye, was to kill Emperor Xue Ye without his knowledge and take the opportunity to take control of the entire Tiandou Empire.

Although a series of plans are proceeding in an orderly manner, Emperor Xue Ye currently has a son besides himself, Prince Xue Beng, who is his third brother.

After Emperor Xue Ye died, he became the only stumbling block to his succession to the empire.

Although Xue Beng is a dandy boy, he has the support of Prince Xuexing. Although the role of a prince cannot cause any serious impact on himself,

But their main strength comes from the old man kneeling in front of Kong, one of the top fighters in Douluo Continent, the 91st level Titled Douluo, Dugu Bo, titled: Poison.

Prince Xuexing was kind to Dugu Bo and recruited him to the Tiandou Empire as a guest official, entrusting him with important tasks in many matters.

This not only allows him to possess powerful combat power, but also gives him a certain say and decision-making power in important decisions of the Tiandou Empire.

Therefore, when it comes to supporting Avalanche, Dugu Bo must be a strong obstacle standing opposite to him.

"Old man, you get up first."

Kong saw Dugu Bo kneeling down after a disagreement and reached out his hand to pull him up, but the old man was very stubborn. He clasped his fists and lowered his head, refusing to get up no matter what.

There was a firm attitude on his face that said, "If you don't agree to me, I will keep kneeling."

"Hey? Grandpa, are you having any trouble?"

Paimon subconsciously flew to Sora's side. She smelled the scent of a long-lost commission.

But she remembered that all the previous commissions were first discovered by her, the mission triggerer Ji?

This time, the client came to her on his own initiative, and she was a little uncomfortable with it.

"Sir, this old man..."

Dugu Bo spoke, then glanced at everyone in the private room. He knew that Paimeng and the little fox girl were with Kong, but Xue Qinghe and the hotel manager were also present, so he hesitated to speak for a moment.

As a Titled Douluo, the fewer people who know about my affairs, the better. In the current situation, it would be fine if only this strong man or the people around him knew about it.
But there were still Prince Tiandou and the hotel manager, which forced him to consider whether he should take the opportunity to speak.

"Your Highness, the food is ready. Should we serve it now or..."

"Come on now. We can talk after dinner if there's anything. What do you think, brother?"

Manager Mu originally came to ask whether the dishes should be served immediately, but unexpectedly met Dugu Bo at the door. However, before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Xue Qinghe, who looked at the sky, as if asking for his opinion.

"Hmm~ Traveler..."

Seeing that Kong didn't say anything, Paimeng wanted to know what the old man wanted to say, but she also wanted to eat, so she was a little conflicted for a moment.

"Old man, the things that happened to you have been accumulating for a long time. There is no need to rush. Get up first."

Seeing that Dugu Bo seemed a little worried, Kong cryptically told him what had happened to him. "Sir! You really do know what I'm asking for!"

Kong's few words revealed his current worries and frustrations, which not only shocked him greatly, but also made his eyes light up.

The martial soul that he and his clan members awakened was the Green Phosphorus Snake, a martial soul with an extremely strong poison attribute. This made their clan's martial soul extremely powerful, but it also had serious flaws.

That is, from the day of birth, even if the martial soul power is not improved, the toxins brought by the martial soul will gradually backfire on oneself and relatives with physical contact over time.

At this point, Dugu Bo and his granddaughter are the only two people left in the family.

He searched everywhere for magical herbs and treasures that could suppress the poison, not to suppress the backlash of the martial soul poison that he was suffering from all the time, but to preserve his granddaughter, the only bloodline he had inherited.

He came to the auction house this time just to buy the magical herb that might be able to inhibit the toxin, but he also knew that it was only a temporary solution and not a cure for the disease. If it could be eradicated, he would naturally not give up any hope.

After witnessing the mystery and power of Kong at the auction house, he couldn't help but think that such a mysterious and powerful person might have a way to eliminate the disadvantages of his granddaughter's martial spirit.

Therefore, after the auction house incident ended, he thought about it again and again and decided to visit this mysterious and powerful man.

So he followed carefully all the way to this hotel, and while hesitating and wandering at the door, he heard the story told by Paimon in the private room.

When he heard that the mysterious strong man in front of him could absorb the toxin of the power of the abyss, he almost decided in his heart that this strong man could help him get rid of the poison of his martial soul.

Now that his predicament had been revealed, the hope that had been burning in his heart became even brighter.

"Sir! I, Dugu Bo, have rarely interacted with others in my life. Firstly, my reputation as Poison Douluo is well-known throughout the continent, and everyone in the world fears me.

Secondly, I'm a loner by nature, unwilling to get involved with others. I've humbled myself and come here to offend you today, only to beg you to save my granddaughter's life...

As long as I can remove the martial soul poison from Yanyan's body, I will follow your lead and go through fire and water without hesitation!"

Dugu Bo never mentioned the pain he had suffered, and all he asked for was for his granddaughter.

"Uncle, your granddaughter shouldn't have any major abnormalities at this time, right?"

Kong recalled carefully. In those vague memories, the granddaughter of the old man Dugu Bo should still be in Tiandou Royal Academy at this point in time. She had not suffered any adverse effects from the martial soul poison. At most, there had been some changes in her physical characteristics and personality.

"My Lord, Yanyan hasn't experienced any backlash from the spirit poison yet, but this is a calamity that our clan must endure. She should have lived an innocent and happy life like other girls and shouldn't have to endure such pain..."

Dugu Bo looked bitter.

What good was a high soul power? He couldn't even guarantee his granddaughter's safety. Soon, she would suffer the same backlash as himself, and eventually die in agony like his other children.

He didn't want to experience this tragic scene again...

Kong nodded, and with one hand he mobilized the elemental power. Two cyclones appeared out of thin air and directly lifted Dugu Bo up.

"Well, now that things have come to this... let's eat first."
