Dugu Bo looked at his granddaughter standing there blankly, a trace of guilt flashed in his eyes, and he said softly: "I'm sorry, Yanyan, I'm telling you this now."
Dugu Yan came to her senses after hearing Dugu Bo's words.
Seeing her grandfather's old appearance and the way he was trying to cheer himself up and comfort her, her heart was suddenly hit hard.
Yes, Grandpa was not much better than her. The one who died was her father, but he was also his son.
She was still young at that time, so what was the point of telling her? At least over the years, her grandfather had always responded to her requests, and he was her only relative.
"grandfather."
Dugu Yan threw herself directly into Dugu Bo's arms, sobbing continuously, and then quickly became louder, and the crying soon spread throughout the room.
It’s okay to cry, it’s okay to cry.
In fact, Dugu Bo had already prepared himself for his granddaughter to resent him, but Dugu Yan's reaction was much better than he expected.
Perhaps it was because she knew such news at once that Dugu Yan felt a little tired and sad. She cried and then fell asleep in Dugu Bo's arms.
Looking at his granddaughter with tears on her face, Dugu Bo sighed softly and sent her back to her room.
Afterwards, he ordered the servants to prepare the food in advance and have it ready at any time. He himself sat at the door of Dugu Yan's room, staring blankly ahead, not knowing what he was thinking.
It was not until two o'clock in the afternoon that Dugu Yan woke up.
She remembered what happened before and quickly rushed out of the room, only to see Dugu Bo turned around and stood up, looking at her with the same smile as usual.
"grandfather."
Dugu Yan remembered what happened in the morning and shouted out in an awkward voice.
"Okay, you must be hungry after sleeping for so long. The food is ready. Let's go eat first. After dinner, I have something to tell you. I promise it's good news this time."
Dugu Bo stretched out his hand, and Dugu Yan handed it over skillfully, and the two walked towards the restaurant.
Maybe it was because she was really hungry, or maybe it was because Dugu Bo’s words made her concerned.
She ate very quickly this time, abandoning her so-called ladylike demeanor and aristocratic etiquette, and finished her lunch in no time.
Seeing that she had finished eating, Dugu Bo put down his chopsticks and took her deeper into the mansion.
Dugu Bo stopped when he came to a training room.
After repeatedly confirming that there was no one around, he walked in with Dugu Yan, sealed off the surroundings, and set up a layer of soul power shield before looking at his granddaughter in front of him.
"Remember the boy I was talking about back in the academy?"
"Is he really already level 30, Grandpa?"
Dugu Yan still found it hard to believe that there were people who were able to reach a higher level than her when they were younger than her. She was also a genius in the academy. If there really was such a person, she would not have never heard of him.
Dugu Bo glanced at her, shook his head, and said seriously: "Actually, I still concealed something."
Dugu Yan breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't know why, but after she met her grandfather this time, he always liked to talk like this, which made her a little uncomfortable.
"What I didn't tell you is that he does look a little younger than you, but in fact, his actual age is even younger. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes and even touched his body in person, I wouldn't have believed that there was such a genius."
Dugu Bo said this with great emotion, his tone full of admiration for the person he was speaking of.
"So, he is twelve years old this year? He can't be eleven years old, right?" Dugu Yan guessed uncertainly.
"No, he is only seven years old, and he will be eight in another half year." Dugu Bo stared into Dugu Yan's eyes seriously.
"This is impossible. Did he start practicing when he was one year old? Grandpa, if you lied to me, you should at least find a better excuse. This is purely..."
Dugu Yan was halfway through her words when she looked at Dugu Bo who was still looking at her calmly. Her voice gradually lowered and she finally closed her mouth.
She wouldn't be wrong. In her memory, her grandfather would only behave like this when he was discussing serious matters with her father.
After a long while, she swallowed some non-existent saliva and said with a dry mouth: "She is really only seven years old. This is too ridiculous."
"This is the only thing I will never lie to you about. In fact, I met him two days ago. He was not so powerful at that time, but he had also reached level 23." Dugu Bo chose to tell the truth.
"Level 23, level 30, considering his age, makes no difference to me." Dugu Yan rolled her eyes at her grandfather.
"Hmm, isn't that right? Two days ago, which means he broke through seven levels in two consecutive days."
"Yes, we met him during the treasure hunt."
Dugu Bo embellished his words somewhat unnaturally. In front of his granddaughter, he was too embarrassed to say that he was beaten without any resistance and almost lost his life because of it.
"What a lucky guy! But what does this have to do with you, Grandpa?" Dugu Yan first sighed with envy, and then asked back.
"It's very important, because he can cure the blood poison in you and me, and there are even other benefits." Dugu Bo said word by word.
Dugu Yan blinked her eyes. She had never experienced being poisoned by a deadly poison before, so her mindset was a little confused for a moment.
"Why do you think grandpa disappears for so long every month? Actually, I am looking for a place to suppress the backlash of the poison. If you can't withstand it, you will die. I don't want to implicate you." Dugu Bo said with a hint of bitterness.
"Grandpa, what about you now?..."
There was a hint of crying in Dugu Yan's voice. She quickly took two steps forward, tightly grasped Dugu Bo's sleeves with both hands, and looked him up and down in panic.
"Don't worry, it's okay for now, and it won't be a problem in the future."
Dugu Bo stroked his granddaughter's hair and spoke softly.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
"Because of your low level now, the toxin in your blood is not obvious. It's just that your eyes have been green since birth. But as your cultivation becomes higher and higher, the toxin in your body will grow along with the toxicity of your martial soul. Until it becomes like your father, it can no longer be suppressed. By then, even grandpa will be powerless."
"Fortunately, fortunately, grandpa was lucky enough to meet him."
"Then Grandpa, let's go find him and let him save you."
Dugu Yan pulled Dugu Bo and wanted to go out, but she saw Dugu Bo pulling her back with a smile.
"Don't worry, grandpa came back this time to tell you this. I have reached an agreement with him that he will treat you and me. But it may take some time, and grandpa doesn't know exactly how long it will take, so I came back to tell you." Dugu Bo's voice was softer than before.
"Conditions? What conditions? Is there anything I can do to help?"
"Also, I'll go with you, Grandpa. I want to see you receive treatment in person."
"I don't want to stay at home alone anymore, promise me, okay?"
Dugu Yan raised her head stubbornly and stared at Dugu Bo. She was a little scared, afraid that this was her grandfather comforting her, afraid that Dugu Bo would never come back, afraid that she would be left alone in the future.
"this……"
Dugu Bo frowned. He didn't expect that Dugu Yan actually wanted to go with him. This was a little beyond his expectations.
"No?"
Dugu Yan asked softly, carefully observing her grandfather's expression, trying to see something from it.
But to her disappointment, she could only see that Dugu Bo seemed to be really thinking about this issue seriously.
After a while, Dugu Bo looked up at her with an embarrassed expression.
He didn't dare to take his granddaughter over without permission. Han Li was easy to deal with as he was a reasonable man. But he was really afraid that Guang Ling would not give him any face and kill both the grandfather and granddaughter together.
"It seems that Grandpa can't make the decision. We need to discuss it with others. The place we are going to is a little special, and the identity of the person we are going to meet is also a little special."
"Grandpa, take me with you. I will be obedient. And since he can cure you, he will definitely treat me later. We have to meet each other eventually, right?"
Seeing that her grandfather was a little shaken, Dugu Yan immediately used her always-effective method of acting like a spoiled child and pulled Dugu Bo's arm and shook it.
"It's not impossible. Grandpa will go and ask for you."
Dugu Bo gritted his teeth and surrendered, then he looked at Dugu Yan.
"Yanyan, you should prepare first. Bring some extra clothes and things for survival in the wild. Grandpa will go and ask for you. However, I can only say that I will give it a try. If the other party doesn't agree, you should just wait for Grandpa to come back in the academy. How about that?"
Dugu Yan first made a gesture to herself in her heart, and realized that Dugu Bo seemed to be in real trouble, and was also a little scared. She began to believe what he said before.
She didn't dare to make a fuss at this time, and nodded obediently to show that she would follow the arrangements.
Dugu Bo breathed a sigh of relief, and after instructing Dugu Yan not to tell anyone, he hurriedly left his mansion and ran towards the city gate.
I hope Guang Ling is here by now, otherwise Yanyan will be disappointed, Dugu Bo thought in his heart.
