--- Chapter 63 ---

"Pardon?" Dugu Bo said while shifting his gaze at the unknown child near the powerful titled douluo.

The child stood firmly on the ground with a height of 4,2 feet and slim stature, but he can sense that something is off with this child because he's giving him a strange vibe.

"Poison Douluo, Dugu Bo." Yunlong said while looking at him, "I can save your family from that poison."

Dugu Bo's eyes widened because no one should know about their martial soul's secret. Which is the jade phosphorus serpent's poison that is constantly eroding the user body.

"How did you know about that poison." Dugu Bo asked while staring at Yunlong, who smiled inside of his heart.

"It's a secret," Yunlong answered while opening the hood, which revealed his face to him, "But, you don't have to worry because I don't have ill intent toward you."

"Well, it's up to you to believe it or not." He added while giving him a friendly smile.

"What if I said that I don't believe in you." Dugu Bo calmly responded, which made Yunlong chuckle for a few seconds.

"Haha, I have a personal bodyguard here," Yunlong replied while pointing his finger at Jin Eyu.

"You know that he's several times more powerful than you, right?" He asked, to which Dugu Bo responded with a solemn expression.

"I know that, but I can't just agree to strangers, which probably brings harm to my family." Dugu Bo replied while making a weak smile because he can feel that Jin Eyu can beat him in a matter of seconds.

"I see... Family, huh" Yunlong nodded his head in appreciation.

"Understandable, but do you think that I will be offering my help to you if I had hostile intent toward you?" He once again asked Dugu Bo, who is making a wry smile on his face.

Dugu Bo shook his head and calmly said, "No, you can easily kill me."

"Are you really sure that you can save my family from that cursed poison?" He asked while firmly looking at Yunlong.

"Sure, I know the way. But at the same time, you have to pay the price." Yunlong said while raising his right index finger.

"What price?" Dugu Bo frowned while feeling something wrong is gonna happen to him.

"You only have to give your garden and swear your allegiance to me." Yunlong simply stated, which makes Jin Eyu frowned.

'He wants to make a titled douluo as his subordinate?' Jin Eyu thought while staring at Yunlong with wonder.

'Even though this man isn't really that powerful, a title douluo itself can boost spirit hall power by a lot.' He added with a thoughtful expression and realized something.

'My garden and loyalty... What should I do.' Dugu Bo pondered about Yunlong's words for a moment.

"I agree to swear my allegiance to you." Dugu Bo answered while giving him a firm nod, to which Yunlong responded with a delighted laugh.

"Good... You are not going to regret your decision," Yunlong said while walking toward Dugu Bo and giving him a pat on his shoulder.

'My family is more important than a mere garden and pride.' Dugu Bo stated while shaking his head.

"By the way, how is your son's condition?" Yunlong suddenly asked, which caught Dugu Bo off guard.

"How did you-." Dugu Bo was shocked, but he then saw a smile on Yunlong's face, which made him quiet.

"He... is in a bad state. The poison already corroded a half of his body." He answered Yunlong's question while releasing a bitter sigh.

Yunlong frowned when he heard Dugu Bo's words. It's not because he can't save his son, but because of just how much the poison already corroded his son's body.

'Dugu Bo's son died when his granddaughter was young, but considering just how much time... He should've passed away in a few years.' Yunlong thought while looking at Dugu Bo, who had a bitter expression on his face.

"Your garden should have a few rare medicinal herbs," Yunlong said with a serious expression, to which Dugu Bo responded with a nod.

"I've planted a few rare herbs," Dugu Bo calmly replied while remembering his journey to solve this martial soul's cursed poison.

"Let's go to your garden first," Yunlong suggested while staring at him.

"O-Okay." Dugu Bo answered while feeling a little awkward.

"Bring them too." Yunlong pointed his fingers at his maids, who are lying on the ground, fainted because of Jin Eyu's immense pressure.

"Let's go." He added while giving him a firm look.

They then go to the sunset forest center, where the volcano and Dugu Bo's garden resided.

As they arrived at the garden, Yunlong's eyes scanned the area and found many poison and medicinal herbs.

'This place is really a treasure site.' Yunlong thought while looking at the descriptions of every herb by his system scans.

'To think, a place like this exists in the heaven dou empire.' Jin Eyu thought while looking around, which really surprised him because he noticed something that he only saw once in his lifetime.

"You've ventured this continent a lot, huh." Jin Eyu praised while looking at Dugu Bo, who is modestly shaking his head.

"Thanks for the compliment," Dugu Bo calmly replied.

"Take your son here. We'll start his treatment," Yunlong suddenly instructed while glancing at the volcano that released a faint icy and hot aura.

"I'll take him here in a few minutes." Dugu Bo hurriedly answered while flying away from them.

"How long did you plan for this?" Jin Eyu asked while looking at Yunlong, who is giving him a smirk.

"Not that long ago, I found news about a poison douluo, who resided in this empire. Dugu Bo isn't particularly strong compared to you and had a problem," Yunlong answered while shifting his gaze at Jin Eyu.

(An: Dugu's son should've died, but because of Yunlong's presence that changes the world, his son isn't dead)

"I only use that problem to gain his trust and loyalty, is that answer enough for you." He stated while giving the middle-aged man a sharp gaze.

"So you really planned this, huh." Jin Eyu commented while making a calm yet stern expression.

"Hmm, you can put it that way if you want," Yunlong responded with a light chuckle, making Jin Eyu's mouth twitched in distress.
