As expected of Old Poison, he discovered that. I'm not surprised at all. After all, I haven't been with Ye Feng for a short time.
"Bring me back the Nine Segments Emerald, and don't get any ideas about it, I'm warning you."
What Du Gubo worried about the most was not being able to get back the emerald, which was now in the opponent's hands!
"I indeed don't have much interest in the Nine Segments Emerald, but having it here is like doing a favor. I'm thinking it will be my pet from now on, and I'll always carry it with me."
Ye Feng's mouth curled slightly upward.
Sure enough, Du Gubo hit the nail on the head, even if the other party didn't admit it!
It's not like I can outtalk him anyway, right!?
"Ah! That's going too far."
"That's my treasure, Du Gubo's treasure. You can't just take it forcefully; you need my consent."
Du Gubo said with an arrogant pose.
Do you think you still need your consent?
By the time you give your consent, who knows what year and month it will be!
So given Ye Feng's temperament, he can't wait for your consent and will just take it by force!
"Sorry about that, haha! Old Poison, your Nine Segments Emerald is mine now, consent or not, because we both have big things to do from now on."
Those were the words Ye Feng spoke at that moment.
That's right!
Zhu Zhuqing is managing Qing Feng Tea House while Du Gubo has to take care of the Lingfeng Sect and oversee training for hundreds of outstanding teams.
"This is outrageous, it's infuriating."
But there was nothing he could do when he encountered someone as shameless as Ye Feng himself!
"Hiss—"
So he decided to use a soul skill to fight Ye Feng!
It's utterly unreasonable!
"Yo, are we going to have another fight now!?"
"I think we should forget about it, it's not necessary, and in the end, you're the one who's going to get hurt."
If we're talking about continuing the fight, that's fine too since a victor hasn't been determined yet!
"Sky Tear!"
Ye Feng unleashed his First Soul Skill: Sky Tear!
And so, Ye Feng fulfilled the other's wish.
A breath of death swept over.
The Nine Segments Emerald was smoothly retracted.
All this was witnessed by Du Gubo, whose expression grew even more tense.
Damn it, no one has ever dared to compete with me for a soul beast. Ye Feng, this Old Flayer, is getting bolder and bolder.
The Nine Segments Emerald has been with me for decades; how could you just snatch it away in front of me!
Alright then!
I'm going all out against you!
That's what Du Gubo murmured.
From a distance, Ye Feng watched Old Poison's mouth tremble as if he were chanting!
The corner of his mouth lifted slightly.
Old Poison would never be able to outdo him!!
"Zzzz—"
A green light appeared.
After being possessed by the Biphosphorus Emperor Snake, a huge snakehead emerged from Du Gubo's head, and a long tongue stretched out several meters toward Ye Feng, spitting out a lot of saliva.
This saliva was all laced with lethal poison.
"Hiss hiss—"
At the same time, the snake made hissing sounds.
It was ready to bite Ye Feng at any moment, delivering a potentially fatal wound!
But Ye Feng wasn't afraid of the Green-scaled Serpent Emperor in the slightest; his Bloodthirsty Demon Scythe was already prepared!
"Hiss hiss—"
The Bloodthirsty Demon Scythe slashed across the snake's body dozens of times.
In pain, the snake coiled up on the ground until the green light slowly faded.
The snake might look imposing, but in fact, it was not that hard to handle!
Du Gubo reverted to his true form.
His eyes were filled with disbelief as he looked at Ye Feng.
"Spurt—"
A mouthful of old blood spurted out.
"Okay, that's about enough, I admit you're somewhat formidable. I'm afraid I can't spar with you anymore today. I'll have a proper showdown with you another day and I won't let you off."
There's just no dealing with Ye Feng!
"Sigh, I can only blame my bad luck for encountering someone like you."
Du Gubo spoke in a weak tone.
Ye Feng came closer and saw that the man's poison had flared up again, infecting his whole body!
This scared Ye Feng quite a bit.
"Old Poison, wake up!!"
Ye Feng shook Old Poison vigorously, trying to rouse him.
Lying on the ground was no solution.
But Du Gubo didn't come to.
"Could it be that I was too heavy-handed and caused this state? Am I now duty-bound to take care of him for the next few days?"
Ye Feng leaned in and saw the poison gradually seeping into the entire body.
"Can't worry about that now; saving him is what's important. If he dies, there will be no one to help me manage the Lingfeng Sect; I don't trust anyone else."
Ye Feng left Du Gubo alone where he was.
He walked towards the Immortal Grass Elixir, about two to three hundred meters away.
Fresh Immortal Grass Elixirs were plucked one by one by Ye Feng.
He took out a hidden medicine jar and a hammer, and started to crush them.
Then he lit a small flame and placed the crushed herbs in the jar to simmer slowly.
To ensure the potency of the medicine, he had to go through ninety-nine steps!
Dozens of hours passed!
Dozens of pills were prepared.
He delivered the very first pill directly into Du Gubo's mouth.
"Old Poison!?"
"Cough cough—"
Du Gubo coughed a few times!!
"What the hell did you feed me!?"
Du Gubo looked at Ye Feng with a dumbfounded expression.
Ye Feng appeared quite helpless at this moment.
"I, Ye Feng, am trying to rid you of the poison in your body."
"You don't know that you've been unconscious for two days and nights; people even thought Du Gubo had died."
"If I hadn't noticed something was off and immediately concocted a new medicine for you, you would have exhausted your pills. Why didn't you remind me to prepare your medicine in advance? Now I had to rush to make these pills for you, and if they don't work as well as the last ones, you can't blame me."
Ye Feng said in a cool and indifferent tone.
"What did you say!!"
This completely confused Du Gubo.
The effectiveness of the medicine not being as good as before meant that the pill he'd just swallowed might not control the toxins in his body for very long!
It was very possible that the poisoning could recur at any moment!!
"Old Flayer, you're joking with my life. You promised you'd take full responsibility for my life and completely clear the poison from my body."
"The way I am now is your fault, so I command you to immediately concoct the best top-quality medicine for me. You can use my Immortal Grass Elixirs as you wish, as long as you can cure my poisoning, that's all that matters."
Du Gubo spoke earnestly and somberly.
"Seeing as how pitiful you are, I'll help you this time. But if I go through the trouble of making you these pills, you'd better swallow them without wasting any."
In truth, the pills Ye Feng was making were the same as before, except the time taken was significantly shorter.
Why was the time reduced? Of course, thanks to the boost from Du Gubo's Icefire Polarized Eyes, his strength had increased considerably!
"Are you sure you want me to keep this up? I'm worried you'll poison me to death and then take over the entire Dugu Household, including the medicine garden."
Du Gubo spoke sternly.
"What on earth do you keep thinking all day, Old Poison? Am I, Ye Feng, the kind of person you think I am? How could I possibly seize your Dugu Family's possessions? Don't forget, the medicine garden now belongs to me too."
"Heh heh!!"
Du Gubo was once again frustrated with him, his inner fury burning wildly.
"Haven't you already taken one pill? Don't you feel there are no side effects? I'm a good person; how could I possibly harm you?"
"Oh, right, Old Poison, I'm going to stay at your place for a while."
"Even if you disagree, you'll have to agree."
Ye Feng spoke bluntly.
Du Gubo's face revealed his reluctant attitude upon hearing this.
To steal his Nine Segments Emerald and then squat at his house without leaving!
He was indeed a shameless scoundrel!
