Chapter 256: Dugu Yan's Request
During the past month, the Star Luo Empire, in alliance with the Clear Sky Sect, had fought a war against the Spirit Hall. As a Title Douluo, Dugu Bo had naturally heard some of the news. However, he was in seclusion at the time, cultivating, and therefore did not assist the Clear Sky Sect. By the time he emerged, the war had already ended.
He also heard more details about the conflict, including the story of Dai Weis and the sisters Zhu Zhuyun and Zhu Zhuqing performing a Spirit fusion technique, single-handedly defeating Snake Spear Douluo and Thorny Porpoise Douluo.
He also heard about Lin Qiuyang's ambush in the border valley, inflicting heavy damage on the Spirit Hall's Spirit Master army and capturing Spirit Kite Douluo.
The most widely circulated rumor was that Dai Weis possessed a 100,000-year-old seventh Spirit ring. Upon hearing this rumor, Dugu Bo's initial reaction was to disbelieve it, dismissing it as a mere rumor.
However, he saw countless improbabilities in Dai Weis, such as a thousand-year-old second ring and a ten-thousand-year-old fourth ring. Now, it wasn't impossible for him to absorb a 100,000-year-old seventh Spirit ring.
So, he had just released the poison mist at Dai Weis to test his cultivation. Otherwise, with his level, he would have detected his presence the moment Dai Weis entered the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire.
"Haha, congratulations, senior, your strength has improved again!"
Dugu Bo burst into laughter at this. "Thank you so much, young friend! You gave me that extremely poisonous compressed torso bone. With this Spirit bone, I can consume any poisonous or medicinal herb to enhance my strength.
I'm not boasting, but with my current strength, even a Super Douluo might not be my match, unless they have a counterpoint to mine."
At this point, Dugu Bo changed the subject, smirking at Dai Weis. "Young friend, I heard that after you and the two girls performed the Trinity Spirit Fusion Technique, you were able to suppress Yue Guan and Old Ghost?"
"Indeed!" Dai Weis nodded in agreement. "Unfortunately, my Spirit power is a drawback, so I can only fight them briefly. If I had more Spirit power, I could easily defeat them!"
"Well, well, one day, I'll definitely learn the power of your Trinity Spirit Fusion Technique!"
Dugu Bo laughed heartily. The Starry Holy Tiger could beat up Yue and Gui, so if he could defeat it, or even draw with it, wouldn't that mean he could also beat up Yue Guan and Gui Mei?
The thought of himself beating up Yue Guan made Dugu Bo chuckle.
"Well, since you're so interested, I'll definitely challenge you one day."
Dugu Bo was a quality inspector of the Trinity Spirit Fusion Technique. In the original novel, Dugu Bo challenged the Golden Holy Dragon, the fusion technique of Yu Xiaogang and the other two.
Now, he was challenging Dai Weis's fusion technique, the Starry Holy Tiger. It was either a dragon or a tiger, which was quite difficult for Dugu Bo.
"Okay, let's get down to business, young friend." After a pause, Dugu Bo continued, "Your visit to the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire shouldn't be just to reminisce with me, right?"
After being exposed by Dugu Bo, Dai Weis did not hide it, but admitted it generously.
"Yes, there is something I would like to ask for your help, senior."
"Oh? What a coincidence, I just so happen to have something to ask you for help recently, why don't you tell me first?"
"Okay. I would like to ask Senior Dugu to be the honorary elder of Xingyue Sect!"
"Oh? Xingyue Sect!" Dugu Bo raised his eyebrows, recalling the sect, and then his eyes lit up, "Xingyue Sect, I remember now, it's the sect that only recruits civilian Spirit Masters, right? It is said that the treatment there is very good, not only including food and accommodation, but also providing Spirit rings for students for free.
After graduation, students can also join Xingyue Sect. It is indeed a good sect, and it is also well-known in the Spirit Master world. It turns out that this is the sect founded by you..."
Dugu Bo glanced at Dai Weis meaningfully. He had lived for nearly a hundred years and was knowledgeable. He saw through Dai Weis's purpose in founding Xingyue Sect, which was nothing more than to absorb civilian talents from the Heaven Dou Empire to serve the Star Luo Empire.
"Young friend, do you want me to be an honorary elder of the Xingyue Sect?"
"Yes, the Spirit Hall already knows about the connection between the Xingyue Sect and the Clear Sky Sect. I'm worried they'll send assassins to attack the Xingyue Sect, so I want you to be an honorary elder to deter the Spirit Hall."
"I see. Fine, I promise." Dugu Bo agreed without hesitation. Although Dai Weis founded the Xingyue Sect for the Star Luo Empire, wouldn't it also be a good thing for those talented Spirit Masters from impoverished families?
Even if these Spirit Masters eventually joined the Star Luo Empire, so what? Good birds choose their own trees to roost in, and ultimately, the Heaven Dou Empire couldn't retain these talents.
By becoming an honorary elder of the Xingyue Sect, he could protect the Xingyue Sect and also earn himself a good reputation. Why not?
Seeing Dugu Bo agree, Dai Weis's eyes lit up and he said ecstatically, "Thank you, senior!"
"No problem, it's just a change of residence, no big deal. I also have a favor to ask of you."
"Oh?" Dai Weis frowned, puzzled, "I wonder what you want to ask me about, senior? Could something have happened to Miss Dugu? Has she been poisoned again?"
"How is that possible? Can you please stop cursing Yanyan?" Dugu Bo rolled his eyes at him and complained, "If something had happened to Yanyan, would I be sitting here drinking tea so calmly?"
"Uh... that's true." Dai Weis gave an awkward laugh, "but other than that, I really can't think of anything else you want to trouble me with, senior?"
"It's not that I want to trouble you, it's Yanyan who wants to ask you to help her good friend."
"Oh? Miss Dugu's friend..."
Dai Weis raised his eyebrows in surprise. Speaking of Dugu Yan's good friend, he seemed to have guessed who it was.
"That's the female Spirit Master with the Nine Heart Flowering Apple Spirit. Do you still remember her?"
"Haha, a Nine Heart Flowering Apple Spirit Master, the continent's premier healing Spirit. How could I not remember her?
It's Miss Ye Lingling, right?" Dai Weis nodded slightly. He had guessed correctly. Dugu Yan's best friend and best friend was none other than Ye Lingling. He also had a rough idea of what Dugu Yan wanted him to do.
"Oh? So you know that girl?" Dugu Bo raised an eyebrow, paused, and continued, "That's easy to explain. Since you know the Nine Heart Flowering Apple Spirit, you must also be aware of its flaws..."
The flaw of the Nine Heart Flowering Apple Spirit is that there can only be two Nine Heart Flowering Apple Spirit Masters in a given era. This had troubled Ye Lingling, leaving her gloomy and unable to eat or sleep.
As Ye Lingling's best friend, Dugu Yan couldn't stand it anymore and joined her in searching for a solution to the Spirit's flaws.
However, after searching through countless ancient books, she found nothing. Just as Dugu Yan was heartbroken for her best friend, she suddenly remembered how Dai Weis had seen through her poison with just one glance.
She thought to herself, since Dai Weis could help them improve their Spirits and transform the toxins in their bodies, perhaps he could also help Ye Lingling improve the flaws in her Nine Heart Flowering Apple Spirit.
Furthermore, Dugu Bo had previously praised Dai Weis to the skies, so Dugu Yan wanted to ask Dai Weis for help and help her best friend.
