She didn't say anything more, turned her head away and ignored Ye Qiu. Anyway, she just needed to wait and watch the show.

On the arena, under the continuous attacks of Dugu Yan's third soul skill, purple poisonous mist filled the air, and Yu Tianheng's space to move around became smaller and smaller, until he had retreated to a corner of the stage.

Looking at the ground behind him, Yu Tianheng knew that he could no longer retreat.

The first and third spirit rings flashed, and a deep voice followed.

"The third soul skill, the fury of thunder!"

"The first soul skill, Thunder Dragon Claw!"

The lightning on Yu Tianheng's body exploded under the amplification of his third soul skill, and then his first soul skill immediately followed.

His hands were covered with a dragon claw formed by lightning. With a flick of his wrist, he reached out and grabbed at Dugu Yan.

Bang! His unleashed Thunder Dragon Claw was easily dodged by Dugu Yan, leaving a deep crater on the arena.

Six months have passed, and Yu Tianheng has already reached level 37.

However, he was still completely helpless against Dugu Yan's poison.

In one-on-one combat, while the notion that control-type Soul Masters are superior to power-attack and agility-attack-type Soul Masters may not be entirely accurate, one thing is undeniable: control-type Soul Masters are indeed the most troublesome to deal with!

Having missed his first attack, Yu Tianheng didn't care about anything else; he didn't want to taste the poison of the Jade Phosphorus Snake again.

He then wisely jumped off the stage.

Yu Tianheng jumped off the stage, but Dugu Yan remained standing there, her waist swaying to maintain her balance with her snake tail, her emotionless vertical pupils staring in the direction of Ye Lingling below the stage.

His chest heaved, and he suddenly felt an urge to have Ye Qiu come up and fight him.

"Yanzi, put the poison away first!"

Seeing the poisonous mist spreading outwards, Qin Ming urged, "If this spreads further, it will damage the flowers and plants..."

"Yes, I understand, teacher!" Dugu Yan nodded. The purple poisonous mist slowly seeped into her body. After her martial spirit was dispelled, her face turned much paler.

"Teacher Qin Ming, I'm not feeling well, so I'll be leaving now!"

"Okay, then you should go back first!" Qin Ming naturally knew that Dugu Yan had some health problems, and he nodded in agreement without any hesitation.

With a cold expression, she slowly walked towards Ye Qiu's direction.

"Miss Dugu... um?" Seeing her walking towards him, Ye Qiu got up to greet her.

But Dugu Yan seemed not to see her, brushed past him, and walked into the grove on her own.

"Pfft... Hehe!" Seeing Ye Qiu frozen in place, not understanding what was going on, Ye Lingling couldn't help but chuckle.

"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and follow them!"

"Okay, goodbye Miss Lingling!" Ye Qiu nodded and immediately ran into the grove.

Watching Ye Qiu hurriedly follow, a hint of disappointment flashed in Ye Lingling's eyes. She hadn't expected Yanzi not to make a scene on the spot...

"Hey! You dead leopard... I hadn't noticed before, but there seems to be something on Ye Qiu's face!"

Upon hearing Yu Feng's words, Oslo looked towards Ye Qiu, only to see a back view.

"I don't know, I wasn't looking at it just now..."

Qin Ming watched Ye Qiu and his companion's retreating figures with great interest. He had a fairly good impression of Ye Qiu and had even considered recruiting him into the team...

His gaze swept over Yu Tianheng, who had a somewhat gloomy look in his eyes, and he sighed inwardly. If he really joined, this team wouldn't be easy to lead!

……

"Miss Dugu! Are you alright?"

In the grove, Dugu Yan, who had gone ahead, was standing there waiting for Ye Qiu.

"It's alright, I won't die!" Dugu Yan turned to look at him, her pale face showing a hint of anger, and sneered. "Heh... Ye Qiu, you really are quite the ladies' man!"

"Huh?" Ye Qiu looked at her in surprise. Didn't she know where he had gone? Why did she say that?

Dugu Yan walked up to him and wiped his cheeks with her hands.

He held up his middle finger, pointing it at Ye Qiu with a hint of red on the fingertip, and placed it in front of Ye Qiu's eyes.

His voice was a mixture of anger and mockery.

"What do you mean? I asked you to bring Xiao Lan back, but you were only concerned with your own womanizing... Speaking of which, who else could it be besides Miss Ning?"

"..." Looking at the bright red on her fingertips, Ye Qiu finally understood why Ning Rongrong was behaving strangely.

"Hehe... Well, there's no one else. The other one should be that girl Xiao Lan..." Ye Qiu awkwardly rubbed his cheeks, the crimson mixed with the blood on his face, like a light layer of rouge.

"Hmph! What about Xiao Lan?" Dugu Yan snorted coldly, her icy voice softening slightly as she turned to inquire about Xiao Lan's whereabouts.

"Uh...hehe!" Ye Qiu chuckled awkwardly, unsure how to respond.

After a moment of silence, Dugu Yan naturally knew the result; she had probably been obstructed by Ning Rongrong again.

"Never mind... let's go! Let's buy some food first... then go back!"

Somewhat disappointed, she reached out and placed her hand on Ye Qiu's arm, her brows furrowed.

The snake venom within his body fluctuated slightly after he recklessly unleashed his third soul skill.

"I've prepared the food! Let's head straight back to Sunset Forest!"

Dugu Yan did not answer, so Ye Qiu took it as a tacit agreement.

The Martial Soul is activated, and divine power is unleashed.

The two quickly disappeared into the grove.

……

Once they entered the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well secret realm, Dugu Yan never spoke to Ye Qiu again.

"Miss Dugu, are you alright?"

Ye Qiu had already set the food on the table, while Dugu Yan sat cross-legged to the side, adjusting her state.

His brows relaxed, and he opened his eyes to look at Ye Qiu.

"It's all ready, let's eat..."

After saying that, she silently picked up her bowl and chopsticks, and Ye Qiu had already served her the food in the bowl.

"Okay! You eat first, I'm going to wash my face!"

Watching Ye Qiu's retreating figure, Dugu Yan smiled, but her eyes held a hint of bitterness.

The newly prepared antidote suited her taste perfectly, with just the right amount of sweetness, and all the dishes on the table were her favorites...

The unpleasantness in my heart has long since vanished.

"Hey? Yan Yan, why are you all here alone? Where's that kid?!"

Just as Dugu Yan was grieving alone, a green figure suddenly appeared next to the wooden shed.

"Grandpa!" Dugu Yan's voice was filled with surprise, but then turned aggrieved. "Where have you been these past few days... Can't you just stay put?"

"Haha, I just wanted to give you two more... cough cough! By the way, where's that kid?"

Dugu Bo suddenly changed his mind halfway through his sentence, looking at his granddaughter with a resentful expression.

Dugu Yan rolled her eyes at him, annoyed. How could she, as his granddaughter, not know what he was thinking?

"Hmph! She got bitten by the young lady of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and is now washing her face..."

"Hmm?" Dugu Bo heard a hint of sourness in her tone, and a smile appeared in his cloudy green eyes.

He had already heard about Ye Qiu and the young lady of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School from Yan Yan.

The little scheme he had in mind vanished after learning the other party's identity. Dugu Bo dared not act too recklessly against the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

He hadn't expected Ye Qiu to have this skill; even the little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, one of the three upper sects, was fond of him.

However, even so, it did not make him give up the idea of ​​bringing his granddaughter and Ye Qiu together.

"Yanyan...do you have feelings for him?"

Dugu Bo wanted to test her further, but Dugu Yan didn't say anything and just ate her food in small bites.

"Yanyan, what's wrong? You can tell Grandpa anything! Maybe Grandpa can help you!" Dugu Bo looked at her curiously.

Dugu Yan gently bit her chopsticks with her silver teeth, seemingly conflicted, and a slight blush appeared on her face.

"Yes, are you satisfied now?" She glanced at him, her gaze somewhat unfriendly, then lowered her head again. "That engagement you mentioned... if only that engagement were real..."

Dugu Bo was stunned for a moment, then an uncontrollable joy appeared on his face. The matter he had been busy with for so long was finally showing signs of progress.

Without thinking, I blurted it out.

"That engagement was real!"

Dugu Yan rolled her eyes; only family members know their own situation.

"So what if it's true? He already has more than one lover... Humph! That lecherous man!"

Thinking about these things, Dugu Yan felt a surge of displeasure. They had been together for so long, and she had given him many chances, but there had been no progress at all!

It seems we've always been in a position that's more than friends...

"Yanyan! These..."
