"Hey! Senior Dugu, you're finally back!"
Just as Dugu Bo was about to say something, Ye Qiu came out of the room and saw the old man with green hair and gray robe as soon as he stepped out.
"Hehehe... Kid, thank you for taking care of my Yanyan!"
"Hehe, it was nothing. By the way, did something happy happen to you, senior?"
Ye Qiu arrived at her seat and looked at him curiously. They had known each other for a while, and Dugu Bo would always let out a cackling laugh whenever he was happy.
"Hehe...it's nothing, I'm just happy to see that my Yanyan has gained a lot of weight!"
"Huh?" Ye Qiu looked at Dugu Yan opposite him with a puzzled expression, frowning as he looked her up and down. He couldn't find anything about her that had gotten fatter.
"Grandpa! What nonsense are you talking about!" Dugu Yan glared at him. Where had she gotten fat?
Noticing Ye Qiu's scrutinizing gaze, she suddenly felt hot all over and her face flushed.
"What are you looking at!"
"Ahem... I'm sorry!" Ye Qiu awkwardly looked away.
"Hehe, kid, if you want to see, just accept that marriage contract! You can watch as much as you want..." After realizing that his granddaughter had developed feelings for Ye Qiu, Dugu Bo became bolder.
"Grandpa!" Dugu Yan frowned and glared at him, but out of the corner of her eye she was looking at Ye Qiu with a hint of expectation in her heart.
"Senior Dugu, you'd better not say such things anymore, or you'll lose another tuft of beard..." Ye Qiu smiled wryly, not expecting this old guy to bring up this topic that hadn't been discussed in a long time.
Upon hearing Ye Qiu's answer, Dugu Yan's eyes dimmed, and she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
"Hmph! Kid, who said my Yan... Ouch!" Just as he was about to confront Dugu Yan, he suddenly clutched his chin and cried out in pain.
He was suddenly ambushed by Dugu Yan, who plucked out several dark green whiskers from his beard.
"Alright, Grandpa! Stop talking!" She gave him a disgruntled look, picked up her bowl, and silently began to eat.
"Hehe..." Ye Qiu felt a little smug as he looked at the tears welling up in Dugu Bo's eyes.
"What are you laughing at! Hurry up and eat! Humph!" Hearing Ye Qiu's laughter, Dugu Yan was furious again. She glared at him fiercely, her voice carrying a hint of coldness.
"Uh cough cough..." Ye Qiu, who was still laughing, was suddenly choked by her cold shout and almost choked on his saliva.
“Um… Miss Dugu, I’ve already eaten.” Ye Qiu moved the bowl and chopsticks in front of Dugu Bo. “If you haven’t had dinner yet, senior, you can have dinner with Miss Dugu.”
"Okay, I haven't eaten yet either..." Dugu Bo didn't dare to say anything more.
While the two were still eating, Ye Qiu had already gone to cultivate next to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.
After finishing her meal, Dugu Yan quickly went into her room.
Dugu Bo looked at the two people who were clearly keeping their distance, and his mind started to stir.
"Sigh... Yan Yan, it seems Grandpa still has to lend you a hand!"
……
Several more days passed in this manner, during which Dugu Bo once again disappeared.
Early in the morning, Ye Qiu was still cultivating the Purple Demon Eye. Just as he finished, a hoarse voice came from behind him.
"Hey kid! Come and eat!"
"Hmm? Senior Dugu?" Ye Qiu looked over there curiously, then quickly ran over.
"Why is Senior Dugu back so soon this time?"
"Haha... I went out to prepare some things these past few days, and the snake venom in Yan Yan's body has been almost suppressed. It's time to go and hunt for her fourth spirit ring!"
Dugu Bo smiled mysteriously.
"Hunting souls?"
"Yes! Let's do it today, and also take care of Yan Yan's lack of a soul bone." Dugu Bo stroked his much thinner beard.
"Aren't you going to wait until I break through to the Soul Master level?"
"Why wait for you to break through to Soul Master? My grandfather and I are enough for Soul Hunting!"
Dugu Yan also came out of the room, wearing a green outfit and with her hair tied in a high ponytail, making her look much more capable.
"Hehe...kid, of course I know what you're thinking, but I'm also worried that if Yan Yan improves too much, she won't be able to control the snake venom that grows with her soul power before she even absorbs the soul bone!"
Dugu Bo had naturally considered these things. Once Ye Qiu broke through to the Soul Master level, Yan Yan's fourth soul ring age might be able to be increased a little further.
However, there are risks involved in doing this. He couldn't be sure where Dugu Yan's limits were, so he could only play it safe.
"What are you two talking about? Why does the Soul Hunting have to be Ye Qiu's job? And... how are you so sure you can get the Soul Bone?"
Dugu Yan looked at the two of them talking in hushed tones, her face full of confusion. When did soul bones become so easy to obtain?
"Haha! Kid, you've hidden it pretty well!" Dugu Bo laughed. "Let Yanyan see the true face of your spirit rings!"
"What true face?" Dugu Yan looked at Ye Qiu strangely. Wasn't he just a Great Soul Master?
"Okay, fine..." Ye Qiu nodded. Since he had decided to help, she would find out about this secret sooner or later anyway.
Blood-red three-tomoe Sharingan appeared in his eyes, two yellow spirit rings rose from his feet, and then he removed the disguise of the Blue Silver Domain.
"This...this...how is this possible! A ten-thousand-year-old soul ring!"
Dugu Yan, who had initially been somewhat dismissive, suddenly exclaimed in surprise, staring in shock at the mind-blowing scene before her.
Suddenly, the two yellow spirit rings beneath Ye Qiu's feet flashed with a white light.
Two spirit rings, one purple and one black, appeared before my eyes.
"This kid... he really is a monster!"
Dugu Bo muttered to himself, even he hadn't expected that Ye Qiu would actually have a black ten-thousand-year soul ring!
“No wonder…” Dugu Yan stared blankly at Ye Qiu, then glanced at Dugu Bo, and the doubts in her heart were finally resolved!
Chapter 123 Star Soul Hunting
Ye Qiu's second soul ring will gradually improve as his physical attributes increase. After being tempered by ice and fire, its age has already begun to reach ten thousand years.
The emerald green eyes reflected the purple and black hues.
Dugu Yan looked at Ye Qiu with a strange expression in her eyes.
No wonder, no wonder Grandpa always wanted to match me up with Ye Qiu. It turns out he knew all along that Ye Qiu was a freak!
"Ye Qiu, how did you do that?!"
Dugu Yan was filled with curiosity. How could a Great Soul Master's body possibly withstand it?
Won't it break if it gets stretched?
"Hehehe... Yan Yan, this kid's eyes can control soul beasts to perform sacrifices!"
Dugu Bo eagerly began to explain, becoming more and more satisfied with Ye Qiu.
"Controlling soul beasts to sacrifice!!?" Dugu Yan's head was buzzing.
Sacrifice! She had heard the word before, but she had never dared to think about it.
Soul beasts and humans are mortal enemies; they would never willingly sacrifice themselves to humans.
I never expected Ye Qiu's eyes to have such an incredible ability!
The faint echo of Xiao Lan's voice from that day still lingered in her ears; it was laughable that she hadn't taken her words seriously at the time.
"Yes, that's exactly what Senior Dugu said, so Miss Dugu can rest assured, the soul bone will be ready soon!"
Ye Qiu put away his martial spirit and nodded with a smile at Dugu Yan.
"Haha! Alright, Yan Yan, hurry up and eat. We'll be setting off to hunt souls soon!" Dugu Bo laughed and laid out all the prepared ingredients.
"Okay, I understand..." Dugu Yan replied softly, suppressing her desire to learn more about Ye Qiu, and ran to the room to get the tableware.
Beside that low table, Dugu Bo stroked his beard and chuckled to himself as he watched his granddaughter glance at Ye Qiu from time to time.
It seems that what he prepared will come in handy!
Under Dugu Yan's watchful gaze, an uncomfortable breakfast came to an end.
……
In the Sunset Forest, on the open land, suddenly appeared three figures: an old man, two young boys, and three others.
"Senior, are we going to hunt souls directly in Sunset Forest?" Ye Qiu looked around and asked Dugu Bo.
"No, with you here, we don't need to waste time traveling. Let's just go to the Star Dou Great Forest!"
The vegetation in Sunset Forest is not as lush as that in Star Dou Great Forest, and the cultivation level of the soul beasts there is mostly between a thousand and ten thousand years. There are also fewer types of soul beasts there, so going to Star Dou Great Forest does indeed offer more options.
"By the way, you should have marked the Star Dou Great Forest as well, right?"
"Okay!" Ye Qiu nodded.
"In that case, let's set off now!"
"No problem!" Ye Qiu activated his martial soul and placed his hand on Dugu Bo's back. "Senior, please don't resist!"
"understood!"
Dugu Yan, standing to the side, naturally placed her hand on Ye Qiu's arm.
