Douluo Continent: Getting Stronger After Heartbreak

Chapter 48 Poison Douluo Comes Knocking

"Behold my... sword strike!"

Sword Douluo drew his sword finger with his right hand.

"Resist with all your might!"

At this moment, all twenty-four spirit rings of the three education committee members lit up, and their martial spirit true forms had already been released. They worked together to meet the massive sword that was slashing down from hundreds of meters away...

"boom!"

With a loud bang, all three education commissioners returned vomiting blood.

They couldn't withstand a single move from a peak Douluo, let alone a sword strike from a Sword Douluo known for his powerful attacks!

"Uncle Jian! Show mercy!"

At that moment, Ning Fengzhi's voice came over.

Sword Douluo curled his lips, then turned his sword finger in a different direction.

The giant sword in the air also changed direction, slashing towards the distant mountain peaks...

"laugh!"

A sharp sound rang out, and just when everyone thought the earth was about to shake violently, all the tremors disappeared at that moment.

Was Sword Douluo's attack just impressive in appearance, but actually not very powerful?

Some people couldn't help but think this way...

But the next moment, everyone's eyes narrowed.

Because a crack appeared diagonally on the opposite mountain peak...

"Boom!"

Then, the entire mountain collapsed, and rocks and trees rained down.

Everyone was stunned by the earth-shattering power.

The power of that single sword strike was terrifying... terrifying beyond measure!

By the time news of what happened at the Royal Academy of Tiandou reached the capital, Qin Jian and Ning Rongrong had already returned to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School with Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo.

The aftershocks of the Soul Hunting Grounds were unlikely to subside so quickly; the entire imperial city was abuzz with discussion.

Whether it was Qin Jian breaking through level 9 and then breaking through the hidden level 5 level, or him giving up his hunting quota for Ning Rongrong...

Whether it was his invitation to join the five major elemental academies or even the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, or Sword Douluo's challenge to the three teaching committee members...

Whether it was Qin Jian aiding Shui Bing'er of Tianshui Academy or helping Dugu Yan resist Yu Tianxin...

Whether it was Qin Jian hunting down the two-winged Gale Wolf alone, or Sword Douluo's terrifying sword strike...

So much has happened in this season of Soul Hunter, it's not something that can be cooled down in just a day or two.

And in all these rumors, Qin Jian's name could not be avoided, even when Sword Douluo took action, it was for him.

As a result, Qin Jian's fame soared, to the point that he would be surrounded by onlookers whenever he went out.

Of course, Qin Jian wouldn't care about any of that; he was more concerned about whether Poison Douluo Dugu Bo would come knocking on his door.

As a result, he didn't even have to wait a full day. Early the next morning, Dugu Bo came to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School alone.

Inside the reception room.

Ning Fengzhi stood up and said to Qin Jian, who had just walked in, "Qin Jian, Poison Douluo says he wants to discuss something with you privately. What do you think?"

Although Dugu Bo's visit was very unexpected, with Sword Douluo as his teacher, Ning Fengzhi was not worried about what Dugu Bo would do.

From the moment Qin Jian walked in, he felt himself being stared at by a pair of snake-like eyes.

He said calmly, "Uncle Ning, I had already anticipated this, so you can rest assured."

Hearing him say this, Ning Fengzhi put aside his remaining doubts and slowly walked out the door.

"You call Sect Leader Ning 'Uncle'?"

Instead of being impatient to talk about the Jade Scale Snake venom, Dugu Bo brought up this topic.

Qin Jian smiled and said, "It's because the sect leader is so kind of me that I'm addressed that way."

Dugu Bo nodded slowly, inwardly elevating Qin Jian's status even higher.

"Then let's get straight to the point. I heard from Yan Yan that you discovered that her body has accumulated the venom of the Azure Scaled Serpent, which could even endanger her life..."

Dugu Bo's snake-like eyes suddenly shot straight at Qin Jian, making him feel as if he were facing not a person, but a venomous snake.

"Not only her, but in my opinion, you are even more deeply poisoned, to the point of being terminally ill..."

Qin Jian was not intimidated by his appearance and said calmly, "I think you should be very clear about this, senior. As your soul power increases, the erosion of your Azure Serpent Martial Soul will become more and more intense."

Dugu Bo's eyes narrowed: "If you weren't a disciple of Jian Daochenxin, I think I would have already attacked you by now."

"Why bother, senior..."

Qin Jian shrugged and said, "I was just trying to be helpful, I didn't mean any harm."

Dugu Bo snorted coldly and said, "You didn't just give me a warning; you were waiting for me to come knocking on your door, weren't you? Otherwise, you wouldn't have said that it could cure me."

Qin Jian smiled and did not deny it: "Yes, senior has what I need, so I had to resort to this tactic."

"So that means you really can help Yanyan and me detoxify?"

Dugu Bo suddenly appeared in front of Qin Jian, his eyes filled with both chilling intimidation and hidden hope.

Unfortunately, Qin Jian showed no fear of him.

Whether it's our understanding of his personality or the subconscious intention in his phrase "Yanyan and me" that puts his granddaughter first, it proves that he's not a bad person, just has an eccentric temper.

"I don't know if Dugu Yan misheard, but I actually don't know how to cure poison..."

As soon as Qin Jian spoke, Dugu Bo's face turned extremely cold: "You're lying to me?!"

"Don't rush, don't rush..."

Qin Jian waved his hands repeatedly, saying, "How could I, a mere level 20 Soul Master, dare to deceive a Title Douluo?"

"The one who can detoxify isn't me, but a friend of mine..."

Qin Jian explained, "But he's not here right now. He might not come back for another three or four years. At that time, he can detoxify Senior and Dugu Yan."

Dugu Bo showed no joy, simply asking, "Then what do you want?"

Qin Jian blinked and said, "I heard that Senior Poison Douluo has a treasure land in the center of Sunset Forest, and I want one of the flowers there."

Dugu Bo's eyes narrowed slightly: "What flower?"

Qin Jian said, "There should only be one tulip in your treasure land, senior. It shouldn't be hard to find."

"You wait."

Poison Douluo's figure suddenly shot outwards and disappeared in an instant.

"Why did you agree to my request so easily?" Qin Jian frowned.

At this moment, Sword Douluo and Ning Fengzhi entered the reception room.

"Sword, what does that old poisoner Dugu Bo want with you?" Sword Douluo asked impatiently.

Qin Jian composed himself and said, "Teacher, don't worry, I just want to get Rongrong a priceless treasure."

It's all for Rongrong again...

Ning Fengzhi looked at Qin Jian with a very gentle expression.

Sword Douluo nodded and said, "If he has any bad intentions, you can come to me anytime."

"it is good."

Qin Jian nodded slightly.

The strength of a Title Douluo is indeed formidable; even their travel speed is remarkable.

Dugu Bo reappeared before Qin Jian in just half a day: "These are the flowers you wanted, right?"

Qin Jian looked over, and sweat immediately dripped down his forehead. He didn't understand...

How did Dugu Bo mistake the Qirong Tongtianju for the Qiluo Tulip...?
