No wonder her toxins erupted early; it turns out her Spirit had evolved!
But why?
How did her Spirit evolve?!
Under Ye Qiu's searching gaze,
her two long, straight legs slowly merged, transforming into a long snake tail, her slender waist swaying gently to maintain balance.
A bi-lin green rhombus-shaped scale appeared between her eyebrows, and her eyes became vertical pupils, her expression cold, as if she had lost all human emotion.
Dugu Yan's voice was sharp.
"Although Lingling told me your Spirit Ability is very strange, it seems I really need to witness it for myself now!"
Although he really wanted to know how these changes on Dugu Yan came about,
he had no chance; she had already started to act!
A purple light suddenly flashed in Dugu Yan's eyes, and the purple spirit ring beneath her flared.
The scales on her snake tail were covered in a layer of purple poisonous mist.
Her voice was extremely cold, and purple smoke billowed from her mouth as she spoke.
"Third Spirit Ability, Bi Lin Purple Poison!"
Purple poisonous gas spewed forth, leaving scorched marks on the ground and walls wherever it passed.
The six-pointed star in Ye Qiu's eyes bloomed like a flower.
Kamui had been activated.
The purple smoke passed through his body.
At this moment, his body was completely isolated from this space, so he didn't have to worry about being harmed by the poison.
The purple poisonous mist did not dissipate but continuously permeated the room, gradually filling the interior space.
Outside the door, Ye Lingling suddenly noticed poisonous mist seeping out from under the door.
She immediately got up and knocked on the door.
"Yan Zi!"
"Don't come in! We're just sparring!"
Dugu Yan shouted towards the outside.
Yu Tianheng also noticed the commotion here, and joy flashed across his face.
'I didn't expect them to start fighting; it seems the talks broke down!'
"Yan Zi! If you need help, just call me anytime!"
Yu Tianheng also shouted inside, then walked around the lounge, moving a bit further away.
"Hmph! Hypocrite!" Ye Lingling snorted coldly.
Inside the room, the poisonous mist had become very dense.
But Ye Qiu remained steadfast.
After a brief moment of shock, he had calmed down.
Frowning, he stood opposite Dugu Yan.
"Miss Dugu, I think we can talk properly!"
However, she seemed not to hear his voice, as if she had found some fun toy.
Holding the dagger she had taken out of her spirit tool, she continuously sliced through Ye Qiu's body.
It was like cutting through rotten絮, without any obstruction.
A cold sneer hung at the corner of her mouth.
"Is this a Spirit Ability Lingling hasn't seen before? It's indeed very strange! But any Spirit Ability will have a weakness. I wonder if yours has a time limit?"
Ye Qiu's heart tightened, and he sighed inwardly, thinking, 'As expected of someone taught by a Titled Douluo, she can even think of this.'
Currently, his Kamui indeed had a maximum duration of three minutes at a time, and each ring he leveled up could increase the duration by one minute.
Before, no one had ever been able to make his Kamui remain active for so long.
Of course, this time, it was also because he willingly stood there.
"Miss Dugu, actually, I just want to make a deal with Miss Dugu, or rather, with Poison Douluo!"
Dugu Yan let out a triumphant chuckle.
"Hehe... Starting to get anxious?"
"Anxious? Not really. It's not that I have no way to deal with you; I just don't want to lose our harmony."
Ye Qiu shook his head, ignoring Dugu Yan's expression, and continued.
"Besides, you should be the one who's anxious, shouldn't you?"
Picking at her fingernails with the dagger, Dugu Yan raised her eyelids, looking at him with a hint of amusement.
"How so?"
Lifting his foot, Ye Qiu walked straight towards her.
"Stop right there! Hmm?"
Seeing him approach, Dugu Yan also swung the dagger in her hand.
However, she couldn't touch or stop him at all.
Ye Qiu suddenly accelerated and passed through Dugu Yan.
At the same time, his calm voice, slightly tinged with triumph, rang out.
"Shouldn't you be anxious? If you can't control the toxins, the day you perish won't be far off, will it?"
Standing behind her, he wore a faint smile.
"Also! You don't want your grandfather to be tormented all the time, do you?"
With her back to Ye Qiu, the smile on Dugu Yan's face finally began to recede.
She also understood why he had come here: to tell her.
Her Spirit Abilities were nothing to him; he could simply leave!
Her face no longer held a playful expression, but became serious.
She turned around and faced Ye Qiu directly.
"Hehe... You're claiming to be able to save me without any proof. Why should I believe you?"
Ye Qiu was well-prepared for this question.
"Poison Douluo will experience itching and numbness in his ribs every time it's cloudy and rainy... Also, around the third watch of the night, Elder Dugu's head and feet will experience needle-like stinging pain, and his entire body will convulse, lasting at least half an hour!"
"I imagine Miss Dugu has already suffered from this kind of pain!"
Dugu Yan looked at him in shock, not expecting Ye Qiu to be so clear about the symptoms of both her and her grandfather.
This undoubtedly made Ye Qiu's words much more credible.
Dugu Yan frowned, somewhat moved!
Who would want to die if they could live well?
"What kind of deal? Hurry up and tell me!"
Ye Qiu also didn't beat around the bush.
"I can detoxify you and your grandfather, but I want Elder Dugu to promise me one thing."
Dugu Yan frowned, a troubled expression on her face.
"I can't agree to your request right now! I can't make decisions for my grandfather!"
"It's alright! You can convey it on his behalf, or personally take me to see Poison Douluo!"
"Hmm?" Dugu Yan looked at him in surprise, not expecting him to even dare to see her grandfather.
This made her believe Ye Qiu's words a bit more.
"What do you think, Miss Dugu?"
Ye Qiu looked at her calmly.
"Okay! I can take you to see my grandfather!" Without further hesitation, Dugu Yan nodded directly in agreement.
Coincidentally, after Dugu Bo sent her out today, he was still in his Heaven Dou City mansion.
"When would that be?"
Ye Qiu also felt a slight joy in his heart; he was one step closer to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
"Hehe..." Dugu Yan chuckled lightly, playing with her dark green fingernails.
Her eyes glanced at Ye Qiu.
"We can go now! If you dare."
"Hehe! What I said just now wasn't a joke, but I heard that Poison Douluo has a strange temper, so I'll need Miss Dugu's help then."
"You'd better really have a way to detoxify them, or else I can't guarantee that you won't be missing something! Hmph!"
Dugu Yan snorted coldly, and the surrounding poisonous mist slowly receded into her.
Watching the slowly dissipating purple poisonous mist around him, Ye Qiu frowned; his time was almost up!
"Miss Dugu, then I'll go out and wait for you first!"
With that, he didn't wait for her reply.
He passed directly through the wall.
Dugu Yan looked at the spot on the wall where he left, and she had a plan in mind.
'Perhaps Lingling's idea is right; this guy really does have that much power. That guy is too annoying!'
...
"Ah~"
As soon as he stepped outside, he almost bumped into Ye Lingling.
"Ye Qiu! Where's Yan Zi? Why are you the only one out here!"
Ye Lingling suppressed the surprise in her eyes, her voice tinged with worry.
"Hoo~" Breathing in the fresh air outside, Ye Qiu smiled.
"Don't worry, Miss Dugu will be out soon."
On the side, Yu Tianheng also stepped forward to question him.
"Kid! Where's Yan Zi? What did you do to her?!"
