Douluo Continent: Starting with the Fire-Breathing Dragon Martial Soul!

Chapter 73 She's Sick! (First Update)

Meanwhile, on the other side...

Taking advantage of the rare holiday, Lin Mo and Ye Lengleng left the academy together and returned to the Ye family clinic in the city.

On the way back, Ye Lengleng seemed to suddenly remember something, turned her head to look at Lin Mo, and asked with a hint of curiosity, "Why were you always sparring with Yu Tianheng a while ago? It seems like you haven't seen him for the past ten days or so."

Lin Mo was looking down at the little fire dragon hopping around his feet. Without even looking up, he casually replied, "Oh, that's because I've already gotten what I wanted, so naturally I don't need to go fight it anymore."

"Things?" Ye Lingling keenly noticed the unusual tone in his words and frowned slightly. "You went to spar with him with an ulterior motive?"

As soon as she finished speaking, as if to answer her question, the little fire dragon following Lin Mo's feet suddenly let out an excited low growl and then raised its little claws.

The tender dragon claw was instantly enveloped in a layer of crackling bright yellow lightning, emanating a sharp and violent aura that was quite astonishing.

Ye Lengleng's steps stopped instantly, her purple eyes widened slightly, and she looked at the little fire dragon's claw wrapped in lightning with disbelief.

Although she believed she had a good understanding of and was mentally prepared for the little fire dragon's abnormal talent in "self-created soul skills".

But when I saw it create a completely new skill, which was clearly of the lightning attribute, I was still deeply shocked.

A fire-attribute martial soul actually managed to master the power of a lightning-attribute soul master through repeated sparring.

This was completely beyond her conventional understanding of martial spirits and spirit skills.

Seeing Ye Lengleng's shocked expression, Lin Mo smiled and patted her shoulder: "Calm down, calm down, Lengleng-jie, remember to keep this a secret for me."

A sly look appeared on his face. "I don't have the habit of being someone's sparring partner for free. There's no such thing as a free lunch."

If Lin Mo hadn't realized that the little fire dragon might learn something from Yu Tianheng's lightning, how could he have fought with him for so many days?

At this point, Lin Mo focused his attention on the little fire dragon, and a panel of information that only he could see immediately appeared before his eyes:

[Martial Soul: Little Fire Dragon]

[Talent: Flame Emperor]

[Soul Power: lv29 (Shared)]

[Mastered Soul Skills: Claw, Roar, Spark, Smoke Screen, Dragon Pulse, Dragon Dive, Flame Charge, Metal Claw]

Molten Body, Dragon Breath, Flame Fang, Flame Vortex, Charged Flame Strike, Cleave, Dragon Dance, Flame Jet (Iv24), Terrifying Face (Iv28), Dragon Claw, Lightning Palm]

Looking at the long and dazzling list of skills, especially the newly added "Lightning Palm", Lin Mo couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction.

The gains from this period of "sparring" have been quite good.

Just then, Ye Lengleng changed the subject somewhat awkwardly, her tone casual, but her eyes secretly glancing at Lin Mo's profile, "Speaking of which, lately, you—seem to have been paying quite a bit of attention to Dugu Yan?"

Lin Mo was taken aback at first, then turned to look at Ye Lengleng, revealing a mischievous smile, and asked, "What's wrong, Sister Lengleng, are you jealous?"

Ye Leng's fair cheeks flushed slightly, and she immediately snorted coldly, turning her head to the other side.

I didn't go to see him, but I didn't give him a direct answer either.

Seeing her like this, Lin Mo stopped teasing her and immediately stopped smiling.

He immediately offered a serious explanation: "Don't overthink it. I'm just acting on a doctor's intuition; I feel like she might be—sick."

As soon as he gave this explanation, Ye Lengleng noticeably quickened her pace, leaving him slightly behind.

Clearly, based on a girl's instinct, her first reaction to Lin Mo's explanation was disbelief.

Who would pay attention to a girl for such a reason? And then call her sick? That's incredibly rude!

However, after calming down and thinking it over carefully, she had to admit it.

Most of the time, the way Lin Mo looked at Dugu Yan was indeed very similar to how he usually looked at the patients in the clinic—it was with a professional observation, as well as pity and sympathy.

Out of rationality, she ultimately chose to believe Lin Mo's statement.

But that subtle unease still lingered in my heart.

Just then, a familiar voice came from ahead.

"You're back?"

The two looked up and saw Grandpa Ye standing at the entrance of the clinic, looking at them with a smile on his face.

Ye Lingling quickly walked a few steps to her grandfather's side.

Ye Linyuan patted his granddaughter's shoulder, a hint of emotion in his eyes.

This was the first time his granddaughter had been away from home for so long, and he found himself missing her even more than he had imagined.

Of course, he would never say this in front of the two of them.

"Let's go inside, dinner is all ready." Ye Linyuan turned and walked inside.

The atmosphere at the dinner table was quite harmonious.

Lin Mo and Ye Lingling chatted about things happening at the academy.

Lin Mo ate a couple of bites of rice and was about to boast to Elder Ye about his heroic feat of defeating Yu Tianheng when Ye Linyuan interrupted him before he could even finish speaking.

"Alright, I know pretty much everything about what you did at the academy."

Lin Mo and Ye Lengleng were both stunned for a moment, then looked at each other.

Lin Mo reacted quickly and immediately asked, "Did Director Xue come again later?"

Ye Linyuan picked up a piece of food with his chopsticks and nodded: "He's the one who told me about your soul power breaking through to level 29."

Lin Mo said "Oh," as if suddenly realizing something. But then, his eyes darted around, and that sly smile returned to his face.

-

"Then—you probably don't know that I defeated Yu Tianheng, right?"

Ye Linyuan abruptly stopped picking up food, looked up, and for the first time, a clear expression of shock appeared on his face.

"You—you defeated Yu Tianheng? I remember when Xue Xiaozi came last time, he specifically mentioned to me that Yu Tianheng of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan had already broken through to the Soul Venerable level."

"Yeah, right!" Lin Mo slapped his thigh and grinned smugly. "And it was a one-on-two fight, taking care of that defensive character, Graphite, from their team too!"

Seeing Old Master Ye's incredulous expression, Lin Mo felt extremely comfortable, even more so than drinking ice water on a sweltering summer day.

Always wearing that long face! Now you're shocked, aren't you!

However, Lin Mo only showed such a relaxed side in front of Grandpa Ye and Ye Lengleng.

That night, Lin Mo lay on that familiar hard bed, his hands behind his head, staring at the dark ceiling.

I haven't been back for a month, and this bed actually feels a bit uncomfortable to sleep in.

He reflected on what he had gained over the past month.

The little fire dragon successfully mastered the Lightning Palm, which is considered an extra trump card. Its soul power is steadily increasing, and it is getting closer and closer to the level 30 threshold.

Most importantly, he was basically certain that Dugu Yan's condition was indeed the same as he remembered—she was poisoned without her knowledge.

"The backlash from the Jade Phosphorus Serpent venom—" Lin Mo muttered to himself.

If we can take this opportunity to get in touch with Dugu Yan, we will most likely be able to contact the person behind her—the Poison Douluo Dugu Bo.

However, this matter cannot be rushed; we must take it slowly and find the right opportunity.

He turned over and closed his eyes.

Go to sleep first, we'll deal with tomorrow's problems tomorrow.
