Chapter 215. I Won't Tell You That Ah Yin Is in My Hands.
Tang San said, "Dugu Bo, if I can solve the problem of the poison in you and your granddaughter, then the Yin-Yang Eyes behind you will be mine. Otherwise, if I can't solve your problem, then I will voluntarily be your hostage."
"Voluntarily?" Dugu Bo said.
"That's right," Tang San said.
Dugu Bo pondered for a moment, and it seemed that this matter wouldn't be harmful to him. So he said, "Well, how do you plan to solve the problem of the poison in my body?"
Tang San smiled and said, "It's simple. Find a spirit bone and absorb the green phosphorus snake venom produced by your spirit into it. From now on, the spirit bone will serve as a container for the snake venom, right?"
Dugu Bo suddenly realized, then regretted it and said, "I should have thought of it earlier. I should have thought of this earlier. If I had thought of it earlier, Xin'er wouldn't have..."
"Then, Dugu Bo, what do you think of our bet?" Tang San said.
Dugu Bo recovered, looked at Tang San, and said, "I accept the bet. Once Dugu Yan and I solve the poison problem, the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire will be yours."
"Hahahahaha!" A sneer echoed from above.
"Dugu Bo, you're truly the epitome of someone who's sold out and still gets paid. Is Spirit Bone Healing really that perfect?"
Tang San, Tang Hao, and Dugu Bo all looked up at the sky. There, Qianxunji stood suspended in the air.
"Thousand Thief—" Though his hair and skin had changed, Tang Hao recognized Qianxunji even though he'd turned to ash. Seeing Qianxunji, Tang Hao's face instantly turned to hatred, his eyes filled with murderous intent and hatred for him.
Tang San had never seen Qianxunji before, but he recognized him from his father's reaction. His eyes immediately grew cold.
Qianxunji, the one he hadn't had the chance to avenge in his previous life, now stood before him.
"Pope, what do you mean by this?" Dugu Bo asked.
Qianxunji said, "Using spirit bones as containers for toxins can indeed prolong your lifespan, but Dugu Bo, do you think they can truly contain your Jade Scaled Snake venom?"
Dugu Bo fell into deep thought upon hearing Qianxunji's words.
"I'm telling you, using spirit bone therapy can indeed temporarily relieve you of the Jade Scaled Snake venom, but once the spirit bone reaches its capacity limit, it will be destroyed. The accumulated toxins, when they erupt, will instantly kill you." Qianxunji pointed out the flaws of spirit bone therapy. Dugu Bo broke out in a cold sweat upon hearing this.
Tang San, of course, knew the flaws of spirit bone therapy, but it was his only solution to Dugu Bo's toxin problem. Otherwise, I couldn't tell you, Dugu Bo, that the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire contained immortal treasures that could eradicate or even allow you to coexist with the toxins.
How could that be possible? Every immortal treasure within the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire belonged to me, Tang San, and the Tang Sect. How could you, Dugu Bo, ruin them?
Thinking of this, Tang San quickly said, "Dugu Bo, yes, the Soul Bone Treatment does have this flaw, but think about it. Using my treatment, a single Soul Bone can contain at least thirty years' worth of toxins, right? It could give you an extra thirty years of life, which is definitely better than your current half-dead state."
Tang San's words immediately plunged Dugu Bo into deep thought. Indeed, even if the Soul Bone Treatment would leave him burdened with a burden that could explode at any moment, the prospect of living a normal life for over thirty years was a huge attraction for Dugu Bo. He could use those thirty years of diligent cultivation and perhaps find a solution.
Qian Xunji said hollowly, "Dugu Bo, for you, having those thirty years doesn't matter. But what about your granddaughter? Add thirty years to her current age, and she'd still die in the prime of her life."
Dugu Bo's heart darkened upon hearing this. He'd lived long enough; another thirty years of happy life wouldn't be bad. But what about his granddaughter? Using Tang San's Soul Bone Treatment would mean she'd die suddenly from the poison in her forties. How could Dugu Bo accept that?
Tang San couldn't help it at this moment, he said to Qian Xunji: "You are the Pope of Spirit Hall, right? You said that my soul bone therapy doesn't work, then do you have any solution?"
Qian Xunji looked at Tang San with deep eyes and said: "I don't have it, but you do!"
"I do?" Tang San was stunned.
Qianxunji said to Dugu Bo beside him, "I won't tell you, Tang San knows that within the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire lies a magical treasure called the Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Item, which can dispel all poisons. If you swallow it, all your poison abilities will be dispelled. While your poison abilities are at the base of your strength, they can resolve hidden dangers and save your life."
"I won't tell you, Tang San knows that absorbing these two opposing magical treasures of ice and fire can cultivate an Ice and Fire Immune Body, a body invulnerable to all poisons. This will protect you from both these toxins and the venom of the Green Scaled Snake."
"I won't tell you, Tang San knows."
"Also, Dugu Bo, I won't tell you the true value of the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire. Tang San simply used a simple Soul Bone Healing Technique on you, and you willingly offered up such a precious Feng Shui site."
"What did you say?" Dugu Bo said, his eyes furious.
Then, he turned to look at Tang San, who was now shocked. It was clear that Qianxunji's words had struck a chord with Tang San!
After Dugu Bo confirmed Qianxunji's words were correct, he was furious at Tang San, yet also filled with remorse for his own ignorance.
"You know the true value of the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire, and even know that the rare flowers and herbs within them can cure the toxins in my body, Tang San—" Dugu Bo said angrily, "So you're trying to fool me with a soul bone remedy."
Tang San's mouth twitched slightly. Qianxunji had exposed his scheme to his face, and Tang San was momentarily at a loss for words.
Even more troubling for Tang San was how Qianxunji knew all this. If he and he were reborn, then Qianxunji had been killed by Bibi Dong in his previous life, his soul even devoured by her. It's impossible that his soul had always been within Bibi Dong, and that Bibi Dong just happened to know all this.
Could it be that there was someone else reborn within the Spirit Hall, and that he had told Qianxunji all this?
Damn it.
Qianxunji's purpose in informing Dugu Bo about this matter was not to recruit Dugu Bo. Dugu Bo, like a chicken, must be kept in a chicken coop.
However, Tang San couldn't get away with it too easily. He told the most unknown secret in Tang San's heart, which only made things worse for the relationship between the two. Aren't you friends regardless of age? Then I'll see how you can still be friends regardless of age.
On the other side, a figure quickly approached and came to Qianxunji's side. After the figure stopped, it turned out to be an elder carrying a little girl.
Dugu Bo was immediately furious after seeing this scene.
"Yanyan——"
"Qianxunji, let go of my granddaughter." Dugu Bo said angrily.
Qian Xunji said to She Long, "Let's get started."
She Long nodded, pulled out a dagger from his waist and put it on Dugu Yan's neck. Qian Xunji sneered and said, "Dugu Bo, it's impossible to let go. What you should consider now is how to save your good granddaughter's life."
Dugu Bo said: "Qianxunji..."
"The ones I brought this time are all Titled Douluo. Your poison is nothing but a joke in our eyes." Qianxunji said.
On the other side, Cixue also appeared. This time, there were three Titled Douluo in the Spirit Hall.
"What do you want to do to let my granddaughter go?" Dugu Bo finally compromised and asked.
"It's very simple. I want the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire behind you." Qianxunji said.
"Okay." Dugu Bo nodded weakly. He finally saw the opportunity to solve his own poison, but the opportunity was gone in an instant.
Thinking of this, Dugu Bo resented Qianxunji, but also resented himself. Why was he so ignorant? He guarded the treasure mountain for many years, but in the end he was just a wedding dress for others.
As Dugu Bo made this decision, Tang Hao, standing beside him, couldn't sit still. The Spirit Hall was already so powerful. If the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire fell into Qian Xunji's hands, what hope would there be for other factions? Would Tang San still have any hope? Even if the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire was destroyed, the Spirit Hall would not be allowed to gain even a single advantage.
"Thousand Thief, return Ah Yin's life to me."
Tang Hao's Clear Sky Hammer grew a hundred meters in size, unleashing its ultimate power: the Great Sumeru Hammer—a hundred-meter-long hammer that smashed towards Qian Xunji. Dugu Bo's eyes blazed with rage, and he shouted angrily, "Tang Hao, my granddaughter is still there."
At that moment, a golden crocodile appeared in the void. The crocodile swung its tail, its sharp tail slamming into the Clear Sky Hammer. The Clear Sky Hammer's immense force was overwhelmed by the crocodile's tail, and the Clear Sky Hammer was directly knocked away.
"Golden Crocodile Douluo." Tang San's eyes darkened at the sight.
After a lifetime, Tang San certainly knew the Spirit Hall's strengths. Golden Crocodile Douluo was undoubtedly the Spirit Hall's second-most powerful fighter. The Spirit Hall's priests had always remained hidden within their walls. Even when his father challenged the Spirit Hall in the Spirit Master Tournament, the priests remained indifferent. So, why had the Golden Crocodile been deployed this time?
In his previous life, when he had become a Divine King, the Golden Crocodile had been an ant in Tang San's eyes. But now, the Golden Crocodile was a giant to Tang San, a giant that could easily crush him.
Could his father be a match for the Golden Crocodile?
Even with his father's fighting spirit in his previous life, he'd only exchanged a few moves with the Golden Crocodile. Back then, his father was nowhere near his current state, injured and stuck at level 95.
At the center of the golden crocodile, the Sky Crocodile opened its eyes and declared, "Rat, not everyone can lay a hand on the Pope of my Spirit Hall."
With that, the golden crocodile swung its tail, lashing out at Tang Hao. Blood splattered all over Tang Hao's body, he was thrown heavily and landed on the mountain. Tang Hao was embedded in the cliff, vomiting blood.
"Golden Crocodile, you're taking advantage of my youth and poverty. If you gave me another thirty years, I would definitely take your head. Abominable!" Tang Hao said unwillingly, summoning the Clear Sky Hammer with all his might.
Then, he swung it towards the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire.
"This heavenly treasure, even if it's destroyed, will not be possessed by your Spirit Hall."
As the Clear Sky Hammer struck the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire, the golden crocodile was already prepared. The giant crocodile transformed into a streak of golden light and appeared in front of the Clear Sky Hammer. Then, with its sharp claws, it slashed at the incoming Clear Sky Hammer, knocking it down.
Tang Hao's eyes dimmed instantly; he no longer had the strength to launch such a powerful attack.
"Ba Ba." Tang San felt powerless at that moment. If he had the strength of a God King in his previous life, how could he have allowed his father to suffer such humiliation?
The next moment, he was grabbed by the scruff of his neck.
"You're that bastard born from Haozi and that grass, right?"
"Let me go, Qianxunji," Tang San said bitterly.
He tried to mobilize his spirit power and use a hidden weapon, but found that he had no strength left. He was carried like a rag bag by Qianxunji and brought to Tang Hao.
When Haozi saw Tang San being carried by Qianxunji, his eyes suddenly became furious.
"Qianzei, let Xiao San go, let him go!"
"Oh, you said let go?" Qianxunji laughed. He loosened his grip, and Tang San slammed heavily to the ground. "Okay, I let you go."
Then, Qianxunji stepped on Tang San's head and rolled over it like garbage.
"Thousand thief, what's the point of relying on others? If you're capable, wait until I recover, and then we can fight one-on-one," Tang Hao said resentfully.
Qian Xunji, while trampling Tang San like trash, patted Haozi's face and said teasingly, "Haozi, you're really good at fighting? What good is that? To be a gangster, you need connections and influence. Not only have you been expelled from the Haotian Sect, but even the Haotian Sect was beaten half to death by me. What's left of you now?"
"Thousand thief—" Tang Hao struggled to stand, but his injuries forced him to lie on the floor.
Tang San was quite tough. After his soul power and acupoints were sealed, he gritted his teeth and endured the humiliation of being trampled by Qian Xunji. In his heart, he had already fiercely recorded Qian Xunji's death tens of thousands of times.
"What I'm about to say is not suitable for children," Qian Xunji said, kicking Tang San away and then standing in front of Tang Hao.
"Haozi, I know the destruction of the Spirit Hall wasn't the Haotian Sect's fault. It was your revenge against the Spirit Hall," Qian Xunji said.
"Qian Zei, since you know it was me and the Haotian Sect has nothing to do with this, why are you harassing my sect?" Tang Hao said angrily.
"Because I want you to be the Haotian Sect's scapegoat." Qian Xunji said with a wicked smile. "Haozi, you made your own mistakes, yet you want your sect to bear your sins. Tell me, are you the Haotian Sect's scapegoat?"
"Qian Zei—" Tang Hao gritted his teeth.
"I won't tell you. I know why you attacked the Spirit Hall. It's because the Seed of Life your wife left you is missing. That's why you took your anger out on the Spirit Hall," Qian Xunji said, standing up.
"And I won't tell you either. Actually, you were right to do so, because Ah Yin's Seed of Life is in my hands."
