Ning Liu returned to the auction house's manager's office at Qibao Auction House and gently closed the door.
He let out a soft breath.
A man like Tang Hao cannot be subdued with just a few words.
Using Ah Yin's story to provoke someone is certainly not the act of a gentleman.
But those who achieve great things should not be bound by trivialities; they should be decisive and sometimes have to be ruthless.
It is a fact that Liuli Heaven needs such power, so if Tang Hao can win over the hearts of the people, it will naturally be like adding wings to a tiger.
If he remains obstinate, it doesn't matter if we can't persuade him!
He possesses a system and has immortal herbs at his disposal; the wondrous things he encounters in the future will only increase!
With these resources invested, the number of future Title Douluos will only increase continuously!
Since Tang Hao is still not convinced, then let him stay locked up.
Ning Liu walked to the window and looked down at the night view of Soto City, where the lights were like stars.
He closed his eyes, his mind racing, planning each step he would take next...
In another quiet room.
Dugu Yan sat cross-legged, a crystal-clear soul bone already integrated into her body, emitting a faint, cold light as her soul power circulated.
Then, wisps of dark green poisonous gas, as if alive, were stripped away from her body by her soul power and wrapped around the soul bone.
The light emanating from the soul bone absorbed all the poisonous gas, including the poisonous gas within the soul power.
Dugu Yan's forehead was covered in fine beads of sweat, and her body trembled slightly, clearly indicating that she was enduring considerable pain.
As the last wisp of poison was absorbed by the soul bone, the blockage in her body suddenly disappeared.
A surge of pure soul power flowed back from her soul bone, coursing through her limbs and bones, and the bottleneck in her soul power broke through.
Level 39.
Level 40!
Dugu Yan suddenly opened her eyes, a sharp light flashed, and her soul power surged, causing subtle ripples in the air in the room.
The deadly poison of the Jade Phosphorous Serpent King within his body was completely neutralized.
Instead, there is an unprecedented ease and power.
"Yan Yan!"
Dugu Bo's surprised voice rang out.
He had been waiting outside the door, and now, sensing the fluctuations of his granddaughter's soul power breakthrough, he could no longer restrain himself and pushed the door open to enter.
Seeing that Dugu Yan was safe and sound and that her soul power had greatly improved, a long-lost smile appeared on his aged face.
"Great! You're finally rid of that damned poison!"
Dugu Yan stood up, feeling the abundant power within her body, but there was no joy on her face.
"Yes, I'm already level 40."
"Great! Great!"
"Level 40, Yan Yan, you're only twenty years old this year. Now that the hidden danger has been eliminated, with full effort in your cultivation, there is a chance that you will become a Title Douluo in the future!"
A smile spread across Dugu Bo's face.
"Yanyan, we..."
"grandfather."
Dugu Yan interrupted him, her eyes filled with complex emotions.
I know what you're going to say!
"You're getting old, it's time for you to enjoy your retirement."
"But I don't want to stay here."
There was a hint of resentment in her words.
"He took my virginity, and I still can't swallow this insult."
"Of course, I admit that he has some tricks up his sleeve, but that doesn't mean I should be grateful to him or even submit to him."
"Smack!"
"presumptuous!"
Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo slammed his hand on the table next to him, his beard trembling with anger.
"Yanyan, don't say such hurtful things!"
"you……"
"snort!"
At the same time, a cold, mocking laugh came from the doorway.
Zhu Zhuqing walked in slowly, her expression indifferent.
"Twenty years old, level forty soul power."
Do you think it's something special?
Dugu Yan frowned and looked at the girl who had a hot figure but looked younger than herself.
"What do you mean?"
Zhu Zhuqing did not answer her question. Suddenly, her soul power was released, and two soul rings quietly appeared.
Although there were only two, the solid fluctuations of their soul power made Dugu Yan's heart skip a beat.
"Level 30 Soul Power?"
Zhu Zhuqing spoke calmly.
"That's right, and I'm twelve years old this year."
"What?!"
Dugu Yan's pupils suddenly contracted, her face filled with disbelief.
A twelve-year-old Soul Master at level thirty?
How is that possible!
This talent is far superior to hers!
Zhu Zhuqing withdrew her soul rings, her tone remaining icy.
"I have only recently joined the ranks of Young Master Ning Liu."
"I may not know him well enough, but I certainly know him better than you do."
"At the very least, he is a man of his word, loyal and righteous, and possesses great strategic vision!"
If you feel wronged and want to leave...
"I think the young master won't force someone who harbors resentment to stay."
Dugu Yan's face turned pale and then red, speechless after being choked by Zhu Zhuqing's words.
However, they certainly have the right to say such things!
Seeing this, Dugu Bo sighed heavily, and his tone softened.
"Yan Yan!"
"Ning Liu's abilities far exceed your imagination."
He paused, then continued.
"No matter what your future plans are, now that the hidden dangers have been eliminated and your strength has increased, it is only right and proper that you come with me to thank the young master again."
Dugu Yan bit her lower lip, still unwilling to accept the situation.
But the impact of Zhu Zhuqing was too great, and her grandfather's words calmed her down considerably.
In the end, under Dugu Bo's stern gaze, he lowered his head.
"I see."
...
A moment later, outside the main venue.
"Knock knock knock!"
A knock came at the door.
"My lord, I have come with my granddaughter, Dugu Yan, to pay our respects."
"Please come in."
Ning Liu's voice came from inside the door.
Dugu Bo pushed open the door and went in first, followed by Dugu Yan and Zhu Zhuqing.
Ning Liu was standing in front of the desk, seemingly looking up something.
He looked up, saw the three of them, and nodded slightly.
"Senior Dugu, Dugu Yan, Zhu Qing, you've arrived."
His gaze lingered on Dugu Yan for a moment.
"Dugu Yan, you look good. It seems you absorbed the soul bone very smoothly."
Dugu Yan avoided his gaze and let out a soft "hmm" sound from her nose.
Dugu Bo's face showed gratitude.
"My lord, Yan Yan's poison has been completely cured, and her soul power has also been raised to level 40. I have brought her here to express my gratitude."
As he spoke, he was about to bow.
Ning Liu quickly stepped forward and helped him up.
"There's no need for that, senior."
Dugu Yan stood behind Dugu Bo, her expression somewhat complicated, but she still bowed slightly and spoke.
Thank you.
Ning Liu looked at the three people in front of him, and a thought suddenly struck him.
"Since Dugu Bo is here, why don't we go and test the effect of that Soul Battle Energy Gathering Array now?"
