The Star Luo Empire, the territory of the Po clan.
"What? You're saying that His Majesty the Poison Douluo wants to see me?"
Yang Wudi looked at the clansman who sent the message, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
He had naturally heard of Dugu Bo's name, but since Dugu Bo was now a royal guest of the Heaven Dou Empire, and had traveled thousands of miles to the Star Luo Empire to find him, it must be something important.
Immediately, Yang Wudi said to his clansmen, "Quickly invite His Majesty Poison Douluo in, no... I will personally go out to greet him!"
Yang Wudi was stubborn, but not stupid. Even though he was confident in his own strength, he would never do something like offending a Title Douluo for no reason.
Especially since this person is Dugu Bo. Although Dugu Bo's strength is relatively weak among the titled Douluo, his poison is much stronger than that of other titled Douluo when used to crush weaker opponents.
If he really angered Dugu Bo, the other party could wipe out his entire Po clan overnight, leaving only him as the sole survivor.
Soon, Yang Wudi walked to the reception area, put on a smiling face, and respectfully bowed to Dugu Bo.
"Yang Wudi, patriarch of the Po Clan, greets His Majesty, Poison Douluo!"
Dugu Bo also stood up, waved his hand and said, "No need for formalities, I don't like such red tape."
"I heard that Your Excellency Poison Douluo has come to see me. May I ask what brings you here? If it is within my power, I will certainly do my best to help," Yang Wudi asked.
Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo glanced at the members of the Broken Clan around him, and Yang Wudi instantly understood. He said to the people present, "You all go out first. I have important matters to discuss with His Majesty the Poison Douluo."
"Yes!"
Upon hearing the clan leader's words, the members of the Broken Clan immediately went out and surrounded the area from a distance, preventing anyone from passing through.
"Your Excellency Poison Douluo, you can speak now. Those people were all clansmen I value. They are loyal to the clan and would not speak carelessly," Yang Wudi said solemnly.
Sensing that these people had indeed gone far away, Dugu Bo finally spoke up: "I've heard that you have an extremely deep understanding of medicine, so let me test you. What is this?"
As he spoke, Dugu Bo took out a box of herbs from his storage soul tool and opened it.
However, Yang Wudi was immediately shocked when he saw the herb. "Ninth-grade Blood Ganoderma! Your Highness Poison Douluo, you actually have this! This is a top-grade herb for healing. Pills made from it can not only treat many fatal injuries, but also enhance qi and blood!"
Dugu Bo nodded, put it away, and then took out many herbs from the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire for Yang Wudi to identify. Yang Wudi answered them almost without thinking, and his tone became more and more excited.
In response, Dugu Bo finally confirmed Yang Wudi's abilities, because among the herbs he had just shown Yang Wudi, there were many that even he couldn't recognize.
"I never expected that Your Excellency Poison Douluo would also enjoy studying herbs."
Yang Wudi's gaze toward Dugu Bo became increasingly friendly. He hadn't expected that this Poison Douluo, Dugu Bo, was also a kindred spirit, both obsessed with the study of herbs. Otherwise, how could he have found so many top-quality herbs?
You should know that many of the herbs that Dugu Bo just took out were ones he had never seen before, and even those he had rarely seen before were of such high quality.
"I prefer to study poisons; I only have a slight interest in herbs."
Dugu Bo smiled, then his expression suddenly turned serious: "I acknowledge your strength, but before we get to the point, I must remind you that what follows involves my secrets. If you leak them, I will make sure your entire Po clan disappears from the Douluo Continent!"
Upon hearing Dugu Bo's words, Yang Wudi felt a chill run down his spine. Dugu Bo was indeed as unpredictable as the rumors suggested.
"Rest assured, Your Majesty Poison Douluo, I will never let a third person know about what happened today."
Seeing Yang Wudi say this, Dugu Bo nodded slightly and continued, "Very good, but you don't need to be too nervous. If you can help me with this matter, then not only you, but also your Po clan can gain huge benefits, and there is no risk involved."
"What is it that Senior Poison Douluo wants me to do?"
Upon hearing Dugu Bo's words, Yang Wudi felt intensely curious. What could be so important that would make a Title Douluo so cautious?
However, when he heard what Dugu Bo said next, his eyes widened immediately, and he was overwhelmed with excitement.
...
"Too weak, too weak. I hope that old guy Dugu Bo is still here."
As Qing Mu walked towards the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, she shook her head at the fallen soul beast.
After battling the spirit beasts of Sunset Forest, Qing Mu found himself in an awkward situation.
After learning Solar Beam, Venusaur is simply too strong. Ordinary Pokémon simply cannot withstand a single Solar Beam from it, so it has no effect on honing combat skills.
However, the soul beasts that could withstand his blazing sunlight were too dangerous and unsuitable for training combat systems.
Furthermore, even in a place like Sunset Forest, such spirit beasts are not numerous.
Faced with this situation, Qingmu naturally thought of Dugu Bo.
Dugu Bo's combat strength is not outstanding among the titled Douluo, and he is even ridiculed as the weakest in one-on-one combat, but he is still a titled Douluo, enough to serve as Qing Mu's sparring partner.
Qing Mu's current combat power mainly comes from Ivysaur. Before it begins to grow, Ivysaur's strength is roughly at the peak Soul Emperor level. With Qing Mu's assistance, it can fight against a beginner Soul Saint who has not yet activated their Martial Soul True Body.
After evolving into Ivysaur, it became much stronger, equivalent to a mid-level Soul Saint without activating its Martial Soul True Body.
Venusaur, on the other hand, has gone a step further, with strength equivalent to a mid-level Soul Saint who has awakened their Martial Soul True Body.
If the growth is fully stacked, the strength will experience a leap, equivalent to a stronger Soul Douluo.
Although she was already very strong, this strength was far from enough if she wanted to dominate the Douluo Continent. This is why Qing Mu still hid her cultivation level in front of outsiders.
However, Qingmu estimates that once he obtains his fifth spirit ring, breaks through to the Spirit King level, and makes up for his speed deficiency, his strength should see another leap forward.
At that time, below the titled Douluo, there should be few people in the Douluo Continent who can rival him. In fact, considering the powerful sustained combat ability of the Undying Turret Style, he could wear down those opponents to death.
When Qing Mu arrived at the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, the scene before him made him slightly taken aback.
There stood Dugu Bo and a burly old man outside the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, fiddling with some bottles and jars.
Upon seeing Qing Mu, Dugu Bolai immediately smiled and waved to her.
"Qingmu, this is Yang Wudi, the patriarch of the Po clan!"
