Upon entering the mansion, Gu Xuan followed Dugu Yan around and around. Since it was his first time there, Gu Xuan was not familiar with the place.

The only impression I got was its simplicity. To be honest, for the residence of a titled Douluo, it was really too plain. There were hardly any decorative green plants, and everything was kept spotless.

It could be said that any noble family with a bit of wealth would have a courtyard that was far better than Dugu Bo's mansion.

This also shows that Dugu Bo really doesn't care about fame and fortune, and lives a simple and frugal life with his beloved granddaughter.

There were very few servants in the courtyard. Apart from Uncle Fu, there were only seven elderly women in their fifties. They usually took care of Dugu Bo's daily life, but they spent most of their time cleaning because Dugu Bo rarely needed them.

Dugu Yan was quite familiar with these people and didn't act like a spoiled young lady, perhaps because they had been together since childhood.

As they walked, Dugu Yan explained the layout and situation inside to Gu Xuan, completely treating him as one of her own.

After walking around the mansion for about fifteen minutes, Dugu Yan and Gu Xuan stopped at a quiet courtyard, which was where Dugu Bo usually refined medicine.

Gu Xuan and Dugu Yan stopped. Dugu Yan said to Gu Xuan, "My grandfather often prepares poisons here. You'd better not go in. I'll go in and call him."

Gu Xuan did not refuse, not because he was afraid of the poisons, but because he wanted Dugu Yan to go in and explain the situation to Dugu Bo first, so that the other party could be mentally prepared.

Gu Xuan waited outside the courtyard. About fifteen minutes after Dugu Yan went inside, Gu Xuan suddenly felt as if he were being stared at by some kind of prehistoric beast. Instantly, he became like a wild cat with its fur standing on end, and three soul rings, two yellow and one purple, rose up on his body.

With his martial spirit possessing him, Gu Xuan's hands transformed into silver-white bone claws, which suddenly attacked from behind.

A straight arm stretched out and easily grasped Gu Xuan's bone claw. At the same time, a slightly hoarse voice sounded gently: "Not bad reaction time."

Gu Xuan looked up and saw the man's appearance clearly. He was two meters tall, like a straight javelin, wearing a simple green robe, with green beard and hair, and dark green eyes. He was looking at Gu Xuan with a gentle expression.

Gu Xuan recognized the person instantly; who else could it be but Dugu Boyou?

Gu Xuan immediately withdrew his bone claws, returned his martial spirit to his body, and concealed his soul rings. He bowed to Dugu Bo and said, "Junior Gu Xuan of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School greets Senior Dugu."

Seeing Gu Xuan bowing respectfully, Dugu Bo nodded in satisfaction. Although he never cared about these formalities, it didn't mean he didn't feel respect from others when they bowed to him.

"No need for formalities, kid. I heard you're with my Yanyan?" Dugu Bo waved his hand, his words instantly turning sharp.

At that moment, Dugu Yan came out of the courtyard and glared at Dugu Bo: "Grandpa! Didn't you promise me you wouldn't make things difficult for Xiao Xuan?"

Dugu Yan pouted, and Dugu Bo's serious expression froze. He immediately put on a smiling face and came to Dugu Yan's side: "Yan Yan, how did Grandpa make things difficult for him? Grandpa was just asking a normal question."

Dugu Yan rolled her eyes at her grandfather and said, "Wasn't I clear enough? I only didn't tell you the color of his little black underwear, do you still need to ask?"

Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo couldn't help but pause, wondering what kind of talk this was.

Gu Xuan, who was standing to the side, was also somewhat stunned. What kind of outrageous words were these?

"Ahem, alright, Yan Yan, Grandpa won't ask anymore." Dugu Bo affectionately patted Dugu Yan's little head and said softly.

Seeing this, Gu Xuan's goodwill towards Dugu Bo increased once again. The old man was a bit ruthless to outsiders, but he was truly exceptional to his own people.

Throughout the original work, it's clear that after becoming friends with Tang San, Dugu Bo protected him even after Tang San had completely destroyed the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well. During the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament, when Tang San was ambushed, Dugu Bo single-handedly faced the pressure of fighting two opponents to protect Tang San. This is enough to demonstrate the old man's sentiments and temperament.

Then Sword Douluo also joined in to help, but before that, the old man was all alone. Without some courage and loyalty, how could he dare to be so reckless?

After calming Dugu Yan down, Dugu Bo whispered to his beloved granddaughter, "Yan Yan, I need to talk to this boy alone for a bit. Why don't you go out and play for a bit?"

Hearing this, Dugu Yan felt helpless, but she was not an unreasonable child after all. She gave Dugu Bo a few instructions and then came to Gu Xuan.

Dugu Yan said softly, "Xiao Xuan, my grandfather is cold on the outside but warm on the inside, don't be afraid."

Seeing Dugu Yan coaxing him like a child, Gu Xuan smiled helplessly. He originally wanted to flick Dugu Yan's nose, but Dugu Bo was there, so Gu Xuan had to give up. After all, it would only be the two of them later, and the old man might give him a hard time for flirting with his granddaughter.

Gu Xuan smiled gently, nodded and replied, "Don't worry, I may not have much else, but I am good at reading faces. Senior Dugu won't make things difficult for me."

Hearing this, Dugu Yan was relieved and nodded, letting Gu Xuan follow Dugu Bo inside.

Dugu Bo glanced at Gu Xuan, then smiled at Dugu Yan, before saying to Gu Xuan, "Let's go."

Two men entered the courtyard one after the other, while Dugu Yan did not leave but waited at the gate.

Upon entering the courtyard, Gu Xuan saw a small medicinal herb garden with more than a dozen medicinal herbs, all of which Gu Xuan recognized.

These medicinal herbs are all poisons, and each one is quite potent, and they are also herbs that are hard to find on the market.

Without lingering, Gu Xuan followed Dugu Bo into one of the rooms. There was nothing else in the room except a table and two cushions, with a tea set on the table.

Dugu Bo casually sat down on one of the futons and said to Gu Xuan, "Sit down, this old man has many questions for you!"

Dugu Bo's attitude towards Gu Xuan was quite good; he had not shown any coldness or suspicion before.

Indeed, as long as Dugu Yan explained his affairs in detail, not only Dugu Bo couldn't find any doubts, but no one else could either, because it all seemed to be perfectly natural, without any trickery involved.

Because every step Gu Xuan took was carefully considered, his goal was naturally to make everything seem natural.

Gu Xuan was not reserved and sat down on the futon opposite Dugu Bo, replying, "Thank you for the seat, Senior Dugu."

Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo waved his hand and said, "Come on, this old man doesn't like these empty words. Although I don't know what tricks you used to deceive my precious granddaughter, before you get my confirmation, if you dare to take advantage of Yan Yan, don't think that your grandfather is Gu Rong, or even the Heavenly King himself, I will make you pay."

As soon as Gu Xuan sat down, Dugu Bo gave him a show of force. Gu Xuan wasn't bothered by this, after all, Dugu Bo was doing this for Dugu Yan's sake. If he didn't show him how tough things were now, it would be much more painful if Dugu Yan were bullied in the future!

If it were Gu Xuan's daughter bringing home a boy she'd only known for a little over a month and claiming he was her boyfriend, Gu Xuan would have been far more ruthless than Dugu Bo.

Want to sit? There's not even room for you to stand.

However, if Dugu Bo knew that Gu Xuan and Dugu Yan slept together last night, and that if Gu Xuan hadn't been so self-controlled, the two of them might have crossed that line last night, what would Dugu Bo think?

Gu Xuan didn't even dare to think about it. If the old man really got angry, he would be in big trouble.

As for the concern that Dugu Bo might harm Gu Xuan, that's completely unfounded. Putting aside Gu Xuan's current relationship with Dugu Yan, the fact that Gu Xuan is from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and is Gu Rong's grandson is enough to ensure his survival.

Dugu Bo is crazy, but with Dugu Yan as his weakness, his madness has its limits.

Inside the room, the conversation between the two men began.

P.S.: Typos will be corrected first and then fixed later.

I'm so frustrated. I revised the last chapter over and over again. I finally managed to post it, then changed the title and it got blocked again. I'm completely exhausted.

I really never imagined that writing a fanfiction would get me noticed by the censors. It's infuriating!
