Afterwards, the two arrived at the battlefield. Wang Teng, undeterred by the dirt and mess, worked with his older brother to clean up everything on the scene.

They took everything they could, and burned everything they couldn't take.

After clearing the battlefield, the two left the Soul Hunter Forest and returned to Barak Royal City.

In the following days, Wang Teng sold everything he had collected, as well as everything they owned in Barak City.

After selling it, Wang Teng, along with his father and elder brother, found Bone Douluo resting at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's stronghold.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Bone Douluo led the three of them into the air and flew towards the direction of Heaven Dou City.

……

Just as described in the original novel, the students of Shrek Academy left Soto City in Heaven Dou City and embarked on their journey to study at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

However, things did not go as smoothly as expected.

Under the deliberate obstruction and coercion of Avalanche and others, they ultimately failed to join the Royal Academy as they wished, and instead turned to Blue Tyrant Academy.

As the group walked toward Blue Tyrant Academy, they were all feeling rather down. What had just happened weighed on their minds like a stone, making them feel suffocated.

"Tang San, Tang San—"

Suddenly, an anxious voice came from behind them, breaking the silence in the group.

Tang San turned his head upon hearing the voice and saw that the person was Yu Tianheng.

He ran up to Tang San, panting heavily, his forehead covered in sweat, his face showing undisguised panic and anxiety.

"Tang San, please, please help me, Yanzi...she..."

Yu Tianheng gripped Tang San's arms tightly with both hands, so tightly that Tang San felt a bit of pain. He stammered and was so anxious that he almost cried.

"Tianheng, slow down, speak slowly."

Beside him, Yu Xiaogang stepped forward, gently pulled Yu Tianheng's hand away, and patted his shoulder to comfort him.

After all, he was his nephew, and seeing Yu Tianheng like this, Yu Xiaogang felt a little uncomfortable.

Yu Tianheng took a few deep breaths to calm himself down, and then explained in detail: "It was Dugu Yan. After we fought with you in Soto City, we returned to Tiandou City."

"Because Tang San had previously cracked the Jade Serpent's venom, Yanzi had been holding a grudge about it. She originally wanted to tell Senior Dugu Bo about it, but for some reason, Senior Dugu Bo suddenly disappeared and hasn't returned to the Dugu Manor for a long time."

"Later, we inquired with the steward of the manor and learned that Senior Dugu Bo hadn't returned for more than half a year, and besides that..."

"In addition, a huge poisonous miasma has inexplicably appeared in the Sunset Forest. Some people have gone in to investigate, and the miasma is extremely powerful. Just the outer perimeter has already poisoned and killed several groups of people who tried to go in."

"In short, the appearance of this poisonous miasma, coupled with the disappearance of Senior Dugu Bo, has led to widespread suspicion that Senior Dugu Bo may have met with some misfortune."

At this point, Yu Tianheng's voice trembled slightly, clearly indicating that this speculation made him very uneasy.

"What? Something might have happened to a Title Douluo?"

Dean Flander pushed up his crystal glasses, a look of shock on his face, and murmured, "Such a serious matter. No wonder when I first arrived in Tiandou City, I found that there were many more guards here, and even the patrol knights on the streets were more numerous."

"It seems the royal family of the Heavenly Dou Empire is also worried about this matter."

"Tianheng, you still haven't told me what happened to Dugu Yan?"

Yu Xiaogang pressed on, noticing that Yu Tianheng had talked for a long time but hadn't yet mentioned the most crucial part.

"Oh, right, Yanzi!"

Yu Tianheng slapped his forehead and quickly continued, "After Yanzi learned about the poisonous miasma, she also thought that it was possible that something had happened to Senior Dugu Bo."

"So, ignoring all advice, she forced her way into Sunset Forest in search of Senior Dugu Bo."

“Three months ago, Yanzi came back. She said that the poisonous miasma was too powerful. She could only go a short distance before she couldn’t withstand it and had to retreat.”

"Originally, we all thought that everything would be fine after Yanzi withdrew, after all, she is an expert in using poison."

"However, just half a month ago, Yanzi suddenly took a hit from the poison. The poison came on quickly and violently. At first, Yanzi could hold on, but in the last few days, she has completely given up."

"Now, Yanzi has been unconscious for three days and three nights."

As Yu Tianheng spoke, his eyes reddened, and his hands clenched into fists.

"Have you found a healing-type Soul Master for her? I remember there's a Soul Master from the Nine Heart Begonia family at the Royal Fighting Academy."

Ning Rongrong asked from the side. As the eldest daughter of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, she was quite familiar with the situation of various healing families.

"I did ask Ye Lengleng. I begged her to find a healing-type Soul Master from the Ye family to come and take a look."

"However, although they could barely keep Yanzi alive and maintain her vitality with their soul power, they had no way to cure the poison she was poisoned. Without the antidote, they could not save Yanzi."

Yu Tianheng's voice was filled with helplessness and despair.

After speaking, Yu Tianheng looked intently at Tang San, his eyes filled with anticipation and pleading.

"So you came to see me this time because you wanted me to see if I could cure Dugu Yan's poison?"

Tang San asked, already understanding Yu Tianheng's purpose in coming.

"That's right, Tang San, could you take a look at Yanzi?"

"If it costs money, I can pay it, no matter how much it is, I'm willing to pay."

Yu Tianheng quickly replied, his tone resolute.

"Mistress, Dugu Yan is, after all, Tianheng's..."

Yu Xiaogang felt terrible seeing his nephew like this.

Yu Tianheng was, after all, his nephew, and Dugu Yan was Yu Tianheng's girlfriend. As an elder, he couldn't just stand by and watch the girl die. So he asked Tang San for help.

"Teacher, don't worry, I didn't say I wouldn't save him."

Tang San interrupted Yu Xiaogang and said with a slight smile, "Alright then, Brother Yu, take me to the Dugu residence now. I need to see Dugu Yan's specific condition before I can decide how to treat her."

"Alright, let's hurry up and go. Yanzi is currently unconscious inside the Dugu residence."

When Yu Tianheng heard Tang San agree, a glimmer of hope finally appeared on his face.

After saying that, Yu Tianheng couldn't wait to grab Tang San and run towards the Dugu residence.

"Teacher, Xiao Wu, you should go back to Blue Tyrant Academy first. I will come to find you as soon as I have dealt with things here."

Tang San turned around and said to the group that remained in place.

Soon, Tang San followed Yu Tianheng to the Dugu residence.

To prevent the toxins from spreading and affecting others, Dugu Yan was placed in a secluded side room, and no servants were arranged around to attend to her, making the entire courtyard seem cold and deserted.

At this moment, Dugu Yan lay quietly on the bed, her whole body appearing as an eerie dark green, especially her lips, which had turned black and purple, making her look shocking.

Clearly, the toxins had penetrated deep into her body, and they weren't just any ordinary toxins.

"hiss--"

Tang San gasped at the sight before him, his brows furrowing deeply.

You should know that Dugu Yan is a Soul Master with the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Martial Soul. She is a natural poison-attribute Soul Master who has been dealing with various toxins since childhood and has long developed a strong resistance to poisons in her body.

To make her like this, with such severe poisoning, the poison must be incredibly potent.

Before his transmigration, Tang San was a member of the Tang Clan and also a master of poison.

When making poisons, Tang Clan disciples have a special method to avoid contact with the toxins and prevent themselves from being poisoned.

This method is—

"Mysterious Jade Hand!"

Tang San activated his soul power, and a flash of white light appeared in his hands, instantly transforming them into a warm, jade-like white, as if they had truly turned into jade.

Then, Tang San held his breath, unafraid of the poison in Dugu Yan's body, and directly placed his hand on her wrist to take her pulse.

Tang San frowned slightly, carefully controlling his soul power as it flowed into Dugu Yan's body to examine her closely.

Time passed by, and the room was so quiet that only the three of them could be heard breathing.

After a full incense stick's time, Tang San slowly withdrew his hands, fine beads of sweat already appearing on his forehead.

"How about it?"

Yu Tianheng quickly stepped forward and asked, his voice full of nervousness and anticipation.

"Troublesome, extremely troublesome."

Tang San shook his head and said solemnly, "The toxins in her body are not a single type of toxin, but a mixture of toxins."

"Mixed toxins?"

Yu Tianheng asked with doubt, as he really didn't know much about the use of poison.

“That’s right. I just examined it carefully. I estimate that there are at least dozens of toxins in Dugu Yan’s body. Moreover, these toxins are intertwined and interact with each other, forming an extremely complex toxic structure.”

Tang San couldn't understand how she had been poisoned by so many different kinds of poison.

Logically speaking, given Dugu Yan's sensitivity to toxins, she shouldn't have made such a basic mistake.

"Is there any way to solve this?"

Yu Tianheng pressed on, for this was the question he cared about most.

“It can be cured, but I’m afraid I’ll have to go to the place where she was poisoned to take a look.”

After thinking for a while, Tang San said seriously, "I need to find the original source of those toxins in her body, and then formulate the corresponding antidote based on the specific types and proportions of the toxins."

"It is difficult to make an accurate diagnosis based on the current symptoms alone, given the complexity of this mixed toxin."

"Great!"

A glimmer of hope finally appeared on Yu Tianheng's face, and his tone became much more relaxed.

"So, Tang San, when do you think would be a good time for us to go to the poisonous miasma in Sunset Forest?"

"Tomorrow."

Tang San thought for a moment and said, "I'll go back and tell everyone first."
