Chapter 78 The Storm Is Brewing

Seeing this, Lin Mo shook his head and walked straight to the medicine cabinet next to him, where he skillfully took out two pieces of dark-colored, century-old whale glue.

He opened his palm, and with a slight thought, a gentle flame rose from his palm, enveloping the two hard pieces of whale glue.

Under the heat of the flames, the whale glue softened quickly, emitting a peculiar smell with a slightly fishy odor.

Without hesitation, Lin Mo stuffed the softened whale gel into his mouth and quickly swallowed it.

After swallowing the whale gelatin, a warm current quickly rose from his abdomen and spread throughout his body.

The blood energy that had been excessively depleted from using blood needles was quickly replenished by this warm current.

His pale complexion visibly regained its rosy hue.

While whale glue does have aphrodisiac effects, it's wishful thinking to think that a mere century-old whale glue could have any effect on him.

With Lin Mo's current true form martial soul, suppressing it would be an extremely simple matter!

Feeling much better, Lin Mo finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He pulled up a chair and sat down, then recounted to Ye Linyuan what had happened at the academy.

He described how Ye Lengleng encountered Dugu Yan on a rainy day, where the poison in Dugu Yan's body backfired and she collapsed in pain.

Then, he revealed his conjecture: the source of the domineering toxin in Dugu Yan's body was very likely her own martial soul, the Jade Phosphorous Serpent.

Finally, he briefly mentioned that he used a rather special method to temporarily suppress the restless toxins in Dugu Yan's body, relieving her of her pain.

However, judging from Dugu Yan's reaction at the time, she seemed to be completely unaware that she had been poisoned.

After listening to Lin Mo's account, Old Master Ye Linyuan's face showed a thoughtful expression.

He stroked his beard, as if recalling some old story.

"Many years ago, that old fellow Dugu Bo did bring Dugu Yan to see me once," Ye Linyuan said slowly. "At that time, I didn't dare to be careless and carefully examined Dugu Yan's body, but I didn't find anything wrong with her."

I never imagined that the toxin was hidden so deeply that even my Nine Heart Begonia failed to detect it, let alone remove it.

The backlash from this martial spirit poison is so insidious! It actually attacks the user more and more intensely as their cultivation level increases!

He looked at Lin Mo and Ye Lengleng with approval in his eyes: "However, you two did the right thing this time."

"For us clinic owners, saving lives is our duty. Since we've witnessed this, how can we just stand by and watch someone die?"

Ye Linyuan spoke calmly, with a reassuring quality: "That old monster Dugu Bo is indeed infamous, but he's not entirely unreasonable."

Now that this has happened, I'll handle the rest of the negotiations with him.

After speaking, his gaze fell on Lin Mo again, his eyes filled with a hint of inquiry and intense interest.

As an eight-ring Soul Douluo himself, possessing the top-tier healing-type martial soul Nine Heart Begonia, he couldn't even see the clues back then. How could this kid Lin Mo be able to temporarily suppress it with special means?

It seems that the disciple he took on has more secrets than he originally imagined!

However, Ye Linyuan had no intention of delving into the matter further, nor was he prepared to ask questions right now.

Everyone has their own opportunities and secrets. Since Lin Mo has become his apprentice and is willing to learn medicine, his character is good, and that is enough.

Moreover, after spending more than a year together, Ye Linyuan didn't think he would misjudge someone, especially a child who was not even ten years old.

He will speak up if he wants to later.

Pressuring me now would be counterproductive.

Hearing that Ye Linyuan was willing to step in and cover for him, Lin Mo secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He knew very well that Dugu Bo's biggest weakness was the poison in himself and Dugu Yan's bodies.

As long as he can see hope for a cure, I am safe, and may even become his honored guest.

Of course, that's the thought, but having a teacher by your side to protect you is definitely safer.

Now, his last remaining concern completely disappeared.

Meanwhile, on the other side...

Dugu Yan, who had hurriedly asked for leave from the academy to go home and find her grandfather, Dugu Bo, hoping to find out what was wrong with her body, did not get an answer immediately.

Faced with his granddaughter's persistent questioning, Dugu Bo's expression shifted, but he ultimately did not give a direct answer. Instead, he asked Dugu Yan with a serious expression where she had heard these rumors.

Seeing her grandfather's reaction, Dugu Yan immediately understood seven or eight parts of the situation.

Even if Grandpa doesn't say it outright, Lin Mo's previous words are probably true in most cases!

My body really has a problem, and it's a serious backlash from toxins!

At this moment, Dugu Bo was enveloping Dugu Yan with his powerful soul force, flying directly above Tiandou City.

His destination was very clear—the Ye Family Medical Clinic.

Dugu Bo was both shocked and anxious when a secret concerning his and his granddaughter's lives was revealed by an unknown young man.

He could no longer care about anything else and left the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy with Dugu Yan, wanting to find the boy named Lin Mo immediately and get to the bottom of things.

When the two arrived at the academy and asked Qin Ming, they learned that Lin Mo and Ye Lengleng had already hurriedly asked for leave and returned to the Ye family clinic in the city.

Upon hearing this news, Dugu Bo no longer hesitated. He activated his soul power and, with Dugu Yan in tow, sped off towards the Ye Family Medical Clinic.

Qin Ming stood there, looking in the direction where the two had disappeared, his mind still a complete mess, utterly confused about the situation.

But Poison Douluo Dugu Bo personally came to see Lin Mo, specifically requesting to meet him. It's obvious to anyone with a brain that Lin Mo must have somehow offended this titled Douluo known for his unpredictable temper.

Qin Ming knew that Lin Mo was important to the three education committee members, and that the level of importance attached to him was definitely no less than that of Qin Ming, a teacher who had been promoted to the highest level.

He dared not delay and immediately turned around to notify the three education committee members as quickly as possible.

When the three education commissioners, Meng Shenji, Bai Baoshan, and Zhilin, heard the news, they were also taken aback.

Although they didn't quite understand what had happened, they didn't need to think too much about it. The three exchanged a glance and immediately made the same decision—

Set off immediately for the Ye Family Medical Clinic!

They didn't want to see any accidents happen to the academy's future because of that old monster, Dugu Bo!

Lin Mo, that child, absolutely cannot be harmed!

Although Lin Mo had anticipated that Dugu Bo would come knocking, he was completely unaware that the three education committee members would follow closely behind.
