Douluo Continent: Martial Soul Spinning Top, Explosive Warrior

At that moment, Dugu Bo suddenly stopped walking.

He looked up, his gaze precisely locking onto the large tree where Wang Teng was hiding.

Who's up there?

Dugu Bo's voice wasn't loud, but it carried an undeniable air of authority.

The golden armor peeked out from the treetop, its golden light shimmering slightly in the sunlight.

It watched Dugu Bo warily and let out a low growl.

Dugu Bo narrowed his eyes, looking at the golden sacred beast, and then at the unconscious boy in the wall of light.

"Wang Teng?"

Dugu Bo recognized Wang Teng.

Dugu Yan also came over, looked up at the treetop with surprise in her eyes, and said, "It really is him? What's he doing here?"

Dugu Bo did not answer.

He leaped to the top of the tree and reached out to check Wang Teng's breath.

The Vajra Armor immediately blocked Wang Teng's path, and the golden light wall suddenly thickened, blocking Dugu Bo's hand from the outside.

"interesting."

Dugu Bo withdrew his hand, looking at the sacred beast that was protecting its master, a hint of interest flashing in his eyes.

Instead of launching a full-scale attack, he took a step back and stood with his hands behind his back.

The armored man stared at Dugu Bo for a few seconds, seemingly trying to gauge his intentions.

A moment later, the Vajra Armor withdrew the light barrier, its figure flashed, and it transformed into a golden light, returning to Wang Teng's body.

It did not sense any killing intent from Dugu Bo.

Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan exchanged a glance, both seeing surprise in each other's eyes.

"This kid's martial soul is really special."

Dugu Bo murmured, "That soul beast-like entity actually has its own consciousness and can even distinguish between friend and foe?"

Dugu Yan didn't reply. She looked at the unconscious Wang Teng, a complex expression flashing in her eyes.

Dugu Bo had seen Wang Teng before during the Soul Master Competition.

At that time, Wang Teng was the vice-captain of the Kamikaze team, enjoying immense prestige.

Wang Teng now lies on the treetop, covered in blood, unconscious, like a discarded rag doll.

"Grandpa, what do we do?"

Dugu Yan asked.

Dugu Bo did not answer immediately. He looked down at Wang Teng and his gaze swept over Wang Teng.

"I heard that this kid won two soul bones in the Soul Master Competition."

Dugu Bo's voice was very soft, as if he were talking to himself, or as if he were asking Dugu Yan a question.

Dugu Yan's expression changed, and she quickly grabbed her grandfather's sleeve, saying, "Grandpa, don't do anything rash."

"I heard that Wang Teng has joined the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and is Ning Fengzhi's son-in-law. They just held their engagement ceremony a while ago."

"If you touch him, what if it gets discovered..."

"What if we get discovered?"

Dugu Bo snorted and said, "As long as we don't get discovered, that's all that matters."

"grandfather!"

Dugu Yan panicked and quickly stopped her, saying, "Can you guarantee you'll never be discovered?"

"The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has two Title Douluos, Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo."

"What will happen to the Dugu family if they find out it was you who did it?"

Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo fell silent.

Dugu Yan is right.

Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo, one is a level 97 Power Attack type Title Douluo, and the other is a level 95 Space type Title Douluo.

Although Dugu Bo had broken through to level 92, he was still far inferior to those two.

If the matter is exposed, the Dugu family cannot withstand the wrath of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

and……

Dugu Bo looked at Wang Teng and suddenly remembered something.

He had seen this boy before.

Not during the Soul Master Competition, but much earlier—in the Ten Miles of Poisonous Miasma.

At that time, Dugu Bo was cultivating in the poisonous miasma, while Wang Teng went deep into the miasma. He was incredibly fast; before he could even finish speaking, the other party had vanished without a trace.

That poisonous miasma and those magical herbs must have all fallen into the hands of this young man.

Or rather, it fell into the hands of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

Dugu Bo's mind started to wander.

He didn't want Wang Teng's soul bone; he wanted the immortal herb.

If we could find out the whereabouts of the immortal herb from this boy, and get one for Yan'er...

That's much more worthwhile than stealing two ten-thousand-year-old soul bones.

"never mind."

Dugu Bo waved his hand, putting on a magnanimous air, and said, "Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda."

"Take him back first, and we'll talk about it when he wakes up."

Dugu Yan breathed a sigh of relief and nodded quickly.

Dugu Bo bent down, lifted Wang Teng from the top of the tree, and carried him on his shoulder.

His movements weren't gentle, but they weren't rough either; at least they didn't touch Wang Teng's chest wound.

The Vajra Armor sensed all of this within Wang Teng's body and offered no resistance.

Although it cannot determine Dugu Bo's true intentions, at least for now, this old poisoner has not shown any malice.

Dugu Bo carried Wang Teng and led Dugu Yan towards the west side of Sunset Forest.

……

The Dugu family's residence wasn't large, but it had everything they needed.

The courtyard, with its multiple entrances and exits, features blue bricks and gray tiles, nestled among bamboo groves, creating a tranquil and secluded atmosphere.

Dugu Bo placed Wang Teng on a bed in a guest room, reached out to feel his pulse, and checked his injuries.

"The heart was severely damaged, but it has been repaired."

Dugu Bo withdrew his hand, his brows furrowing slightly, and said, "This kid's recovery ability is extraordinary."

"He suffered such serious injuries, yet he didn't die and even healed most of his body on his own."

During the examination just now, Dugu Bo did not detect the aura of the 100,000-year-old soul bone within Wang Teng's body.

Because Ah Yin had done everything in her power to hide that soul bone in her sea of ​​consciousness, suppressing its aura to the lowest possible level.

Although Dugu Bo was an expert in using poison, he was not very perceptive about soul bones.

In addition, Ah Yin deliberately concealed it, so he didn't notice that Wang Teng had a 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Emperor right leg bone.

"This kid has a lot of secrets."

Dugu Bo stood up and said to Dugu Yan, "I'll talk to him when he wakes up."

"Go and cook some porridge; he probably hasn't eaten anything for the past few days."

Dugu Yan responded and turned to go to the kitchen.

Dugu Bo stood by the bed, looking down at the unconscious Wang Teng with a complicated expression.

"Kid, you owe me a life."

Dugu Bo said in a low voice, "I hope you can return something useful."

Chapter 414 Repairing the Heart, the Method of the Soul Core

Three months later.

Wang Teng finally sat up in bed.

It wasn't that he didn't want to get up, it was that his body was simply too weak.

The heart breaks and grows back, grows back and breaks again.

Of course, that's an exaggeration.

The truth is, it took three whole months for the heart that was shattered by Ghost Leopard Douluo's palm to be completely repaired.

It kept recurring; it would heal one day, only to crack open again the next day if he exerted too much force, causing him immense suffering.

At this moment, Wang Teng leaned against the headboard and let out a long breath.

"As expected of a soul bone from 100,000 years ago."

He sighed softly, "It can even repair a broken heart. No wonder it's one of the soul bones of Tang San, the protagonist in the original novel."

In his mind, Ah Yin's voice echoed faintly: "Don't just thank the soul bone."

"The immortal herbs you ate before, and the medicinal power accumulated by your sacred beasts, all contributed greatly."

"Otherwise, the energy of the soul bone alone won't be enough to save you."

Wang Teng thought about it and felt that what A Yin said made sense.

He didn't consume many immortal herbs directly; only the Eight-Cornered Mysterious Ice Grass and the Blazing Apricot Blossom from the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire.
