Douluo Continent: Evolving from the Demon Soul Great White Shark

dawn.

The first rays of dawn broke through the darkness as a pale white light appeared on the horizon, and the misty herb garden welcomed its first glimmer of light.

"that……"

"When will you teach me how to detoxify?"

Inside the room, Dugu Yan sat beside a simple wooden bed, leaving Bai Xiao with only her smooth back view.

A night passed, and she hadn't expected the experience to take so long.

As she gently brushed the marks left on her skin, she felt as if it were all unreal.

Bai Xiao leaned back against the pillow, cleaning up the mess as he spoke.

"You didn't wash me either..."

"Fine, come here!"

Dugu Yan was curious about Bai Xiao's abrupt change of topic and turned to look at him.

"what?"

"Isn't it already..."

"Come here when I tell you to!"

Bai Xiao's tone was forceful, directly interrupting Dugu Yan's question.

"Oh~"

Seeing this, Dugu Yan could only silently climb back into bed like a wronged kitten.

Her movements were slow, as if she were enduring some kind of pain.

Seeing this, Bai Xiao grabbed him with his arm and pulled him into his arms.

The contact between the girl's cold and hot skin immediately elicited a gasp. The feeling, both strange and familiar, made Dugu Yan instinctively want to resist.

however……

slap~

"Don't move!"

A crisp sound intertwined with a soft, bouncy rhythm, instantly silencing the girl.

Dugu Yan was stunned at first, then as if she could not bear the humiliation, she buried her face in Bai Xiao's chest, trying to seek protection.

Fortunately, Bai Xiao had no ulterior motives, so he let the other party hold him like that.

He took a moment to place one hand on Dugu Yan's heart.

With a thought, a grayish-white soul force flowed into his body, traveling along Dugu Yan's meridians.

"Pay attention to the trajectory of this soul power."

"Follow this trajectory to guide the toxins in your body to your forearm."

"Then the toxins are injected into the soul bone in layers, merging with the soul bone's energy to form the core of the toxin source."

"This way, when you cultivate in the future, any new toxins that are generated will be directly generated in your soul bone and will no longer enter your physical body."

"Did you understand?"

Bai Xiao helped Dugu Yan up, wanting to confirm with her if there was any detail he hadn't explained clearly.

However, he was met with a blank expression from the girl.

"what?"

"Um... could you say that again?"

Dugu Yan's eyes darted away, her face flushed.

She was so focused on reliving the slap and feeling the strange sensation in her heart that she completely forgot what Bai Xiao had said.

Especially since Bai Xiao said so much in one go.

"..."

You spoke too fast, I didn't hear you clearly~

The white owl remained silent.

Didn't you hear me? Your green eyes are clear yet foolish; you clearly didn't hear a thing!

With a sigh, he had no choice but to explain it to Dugu Yan in detail again with a helpless expression.

This time, Dugu Yan finally understood.

Having obtained the antidote, the girl's mood improved significantly, and the undisguised smile in her eyes added a touch of the unique innocence of her age.

It must be said that Dugu Yan is truly beautiful and has a great figure.

If it weren't for the toxins of the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Martial Soul, Yu Tianheng would probably have already given in.

"By the way, what were you trying to say just now?"

Dugu Yan nestled in Bai Xiao's arms like a kitten, raising her snow-white neck with a puzzled expression.

She still remembered what Bai Xiao had said halfway through when she asked him for the antidote.

Are you sure you want to hear this?

"I'm telling you this in advance, you'll definitely regret it if you find out."

Seeing Bai Xiao reveal that wicked smile again, Dugu Yan felt a little guilty.

"That……"

"Then I won't listen."

Although she was unwilling, Dugu Yan was afraid that Bai Xiao would propose some other unreasonable conditions.

It was just an unfinished sentence; if you don't want to listen, you don't have to. It's not a big deal.

With that thought in mind, the girl lay back down in the warm embrace.

This time, however, Bai Xiao took the initiative to get up and help her up.

"Alright, follow the method I taught you and get rid of that toxin problem in your body as soon as possible."

"There will be plenty of time for you to show your skills later."

Dugu Yan, who was helped up, was first taken aback, but then she understood the meaning behind Bai Xiao's words and quickly put on a shy and coquettish posture.

Finally, blushing, she put on her clothes and got off the wooden bed.

……

Time flies.

Five days have passed since Bai Xiao arrived at the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye.

During these five days, he and Dugu Yan explored every corner of the herb garden and also discovered many strange and unusual things.

It can be said that their traces are now everywhere in the entire medicinal herb garden.

At this moment, beside a large tree whose name she didn't know, Dugu Yan sat on Bai Xiao's lap, affectionately wrapping her arms around his neck.

Bai Xiao was already used to this intimate gesture, letting the girl look at him affectionately as he spoke.

When is your grandfather coming back?

"It's been almost a week."

He hadn't forgotten his original purpose for coming here: to make Dugu Bo his protector after he took human form!

Bai Xiao and Dugu Yan have been spending so much time together, so Dugu Bo should have appeared by now.

Even if Dugu Bo were completely at ease leaving Dugu Yan alone in the herb garden, wouldn't he still need the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well to suppress the toxins in her body?

"It should be soon."

After answering Bai Xiao, Dugu Yan's eyes became somewhat hesitant.

But in the end, she still tentatively asked.

"Now that my grandfather is back, will you leave this place?"

"Oh? You're reluctant to part with me!"

Bai Xiao raised an eyebrow and looked at the stunningly beautiful face so close to his.

After the poison of her martial soul was completely cured, Dugu Yan's hair and eye color remained unchanged, but her overall temperament improved significantly.

The original eeriness, charm, and even arrogance have all been given a touch of hazy obedience.

To outsiders, it gives the impression of both a yearning for something beautiful and a clear sense that she has found a clear place to belong.

"Hmm~"

At this moment, Dugu Yan closed her eyes, her eyelashes trembling slightly, clearly waiting for Bai Xiao to take the initiative to kiss her.

Bai Xiao wasn't stupid; he held the delicate body in his arms and gradually lowered his head.

Beneath the large tree, red and blue light reflected off the two people's profiles, creating a breathtakingly beautiful scene.

However, just as the warm touch arrived...

"You bastard, shut up!"

A powerful shout carrying the pressure of soul power suddenly swept out, even dispersing a large area of ​​poisonous mist.

Upon seeing this, Bai Xiao instinctively reached out and pulled Dugu Yan into his arms, then quickly stood up with the girl.

Boom~

As soon as the two stood firm, a dark green streak of light descended from the sky and crashed directly onto the open ground of the herb garden.

Once the light and smoke had completely dissipated, the figures inside were revealed.

Before Bai Xiao could get a good look, Dugu Yan in his arms let out a joyful exclamation.

"grandfather?"
