Chapter 117 The Poison Player Gets a Backlash
Oh? Is that so? I feel like something's wrong.
After listening to Yue Guan's account, Ye Qifeng frowned slightly and immediately asked him:
"Elder Ju, this doesn't make sense. If Dugu Bo secretly poisoned it, why would he swagger over to the scene?"
"The Azure Phosphorus Serpent Venom is his specialty. With the Spirit Hall's capabilities, they should be able to identify it as Azure Phosphorus Serpent Venom. Shouldn't he be getting away as soon as possible?"
Yue Guan nodded, hummed in agreement, and slightly narrowed her peach blossom eyes:
"Afterwards, when I calmed down, I also had my doubts about it."
"Although the old poisoner is not a good person and acts entirely according to his whims, he is still quite upright. At that time, he did not have any enmity with the Spirit Hall, so it would be strange for him to secretly commit such a heinous act."
Yue Guan paused, pondered for a moment, and a hint of confusion appeared on his face:
"However, I haven't found any evidence to clear the old drug dealer of suspicion. No matter how hard I search, all the clues at the scene ultimately point to him."
"At that time, the old poisoner had already been promoted to Title Douluo. He was the only one present who had the ability to poison the Spirit Hall's law enforcement team without making a sound."
"As a titled Douluo who is skilled in poison, it would be easy for him to poison someone. Moreover, the poison he used was the Azure Phosphorus Serpent Venom, which made him famous. Now, he is completely under suspicion."
At this point, Yue Guan changed the subject:
"Although the old drug dealer was ultimately ruled out, I still have doubts about it."
"It's baffling that he provoked the Spirit Hall for no reason and attracted their pursuit. The old poison master wouldn't do something so stupid."
"Oh, although he doesn't seem very bright either!"
Yue Guan couldn't help but make another sarcastic remark, her delicate eyebrows rising slightly:
"So when the old poisoner came to take revenge on me later, I didn't kill him. Each time, I just beat him up to vent my anger and chased him away."
"That old poisoner is clearly terrible, yet he doesn't realize it and still dares to be defiant, coming here looking for a beating. If we're talking about the weakest Title Douluo in the world, it has to be him!"
"More than ten years have passed, and he's still stuck at level 91 of the Title Douluo realm, without making a single step forward. His soul power hasn't increased at all. I don't know how he did it! It's really something! I'm dying of laughter, haha~~~"
After Yue Guan finished speaking, she placed her delicate fingers on her greenish lips and giggled unrestrainedly, like a woman, her body trembling with laughter.
"That's because Dugu Bo poisoned himself!"
Listening to Yue Guan's sarcastic remarks to Dugu Bo, Ye Qifeng silently offered a comment in his mind.
At the same time, he searched his memory for detailed information about Dugu Bo.
Dugu Bo's martial soul is the Azure Phosphorous Serpent Emperor, a top-tier beast martial soul with top-tier poison attributes, evolved from the advanced martial soul Azure Phosphorous Serpent.
The Jade Phosphorous Serpent Martial Soul has a fatal flaw.
While the venom of the Azure Phosphorus Serpent empowers Soul Masters, it also constantly backfires and erodes their bodies.
After Dugu Bo's martial soul evolved, the Azure Phosphorus Serpent Venom became unparalleled in the world.
In the realm of poisons, Dugu Bo can be said to have reached the pinnacle, with few rivals.
He is hailed as the most famous poison-attribute soul master, and is known as the "Number One Poison Soul Master in the World".
Unfortunately, Dugu Bo spent his life playing with poisons, yet he was helpless against the backlash from the venom of the Jade Phosphorus Snake in his own body. Playing with poisons made him successful, but it also tormented him.
The venom of the Jade Phosphorus Snake was Dugu Bo's pride, but also the source of his suffering.
Dugu Bo's son and daughter-in-law died tragically due to the backlash from the venom of the Jade Phosphorus Snake, a pain that will forever remain in Dugu Bo's heart.
In order to resolve the backlash from the venom of the Jade Phosphorus Snake, Dugu Bo conducted in-depth research on medicine.
To prevent his beloved only granddaughter, Dugu Yan, from suffering the same pain as him and following in the footsteps of her son and daughter-in-law, he secretly searched for a solution. He was willing to do anything for this, even submit and serve like a slave.
The reason why Dugu Bo was able to survive the severe backlash from the Jade Phosphorus Serpent's venom and even break through to the Title Douluo realm is because of this.
It is closely related to the evolution of martial spirits.
There is another important reason.
He accidentally discovered the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye, which is known as one of the three great treasure troves of medicine in the world.
If it weren't for the extreme heat and cold of the Yin-Yang Well, which possesses an extremely strong restraining effect on poisons.
Dugu Bo, like his son and daughter-in-law, probably died a violent death from the backlash of the Jade Phosphorous Serpent venom, let alone break through to the Title Douluo realm.
Even after breaking through to the title of Douluo, Dugu Bo still could not escape the fate of being devoured by the venom of the Jade Phosphorous Serpent.
His soul power could not be improved because he spent all his time and energy suppressing the backlash of the Jade Phosphorous Serpent's venom, and he was unable to concentrate on cultivation.
Furthermore, there is also the fear that as the cultivation level increases, the venom of the Jade Phosphorus Serpent will accumulate more, and the resulting backlash from the venom will be even more terrifying.
Therefore, there are some concerns.
At this moment, Ye Qifeng glanced at Yue Guan, whose face was beaming with a smile as bright as a chrysanthemum, and said carefully:
"There may be a reason why Dugu Bo's soul power has not increased."
"Hmm?" Yue Guan was somewhat surprised upon hearing this, blinking her charming eyes, not understanding why His Highness the Holy Son would have such an opinion.
"How so?" Yue Guan quickly turned to look at Ye Qifeng, expecting his insights.
"Elder Ju," Ye Qifeng said, looking at Yue Guan who had become interested, with a faint, mysterious smile, "is there a possibility that he's been poisoned?"
"Ah?" Yue Guan exclaimed softly upon hearing this, then murmured to herself:
"No way? Poisoned? The old poison master got poisoned? Isn't he a poison expert? A poison expert poisoned himself? Isn't this a joke?"
At this moment, Yue Guan couldn't help but recall Dugu Bo's appearance:
It had jet-green hair, jet-green beard, jet-green eyes, and skin with a greenish tinge; its entire body was green, and its cheeks were stiff and sunken.
Ah, this really does look like someone who's been poisoned!
He remembered that many years ago, when he first met the old poison master, his beard and hair were normal, black, at most with a hint of green.
It wasn't as green as it is now, so green it's unsettling!
Gradually, Yue Guan's charming peach blossom eyes, which had been slightly squinting, slowly widened, gradually became round, and finally bulged out like copper bells.
He was beginning to believe what His Highness the Holy Son had said.
So, the old poisoner, has he really been poisoned by himself?!
Those who dabble in drugs will ultimately be devoured by them.
Is this really that impressive?
Haha, as expected of you, you old poisoner.
Yue Guan suddenly became excited, as if he had caught his opponent's weakness, and was overjoyed.
He couldn't help but start plotting in his mind, planning that next time the old poisoner came to fight him, he would definitely try to trick him and see if he was really poisoned.
If that's true, I'll definitely give him a good dressing down, preferably make him so angry he'll stop bothering me. Hehehe
Thinking of this, Yue Guan couldn't help but tremble with excitement, unable to stop for a moment.
Thank you to [Your Highness Dong will win] for the 100 Qidian Coins!
