Chapter 48: Dugu Bo's Illness Relapses
"Your Highness, are you pleased?"
Although he was looking for someone, Xue Qinghe still had a faint smile on his face, looking gentle and refined.
But Xue Xing, who was sitting next to him, saw this as a deliberate provocation.
Dugu Bo's departure from the Heaven Dou Empire and joining the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School might be a blow to him and Emperor Xue Ye, but for Xue Qinghe, it's not a loss at all; in fact, it's good news.
Xue Qinghe was originally Ning Fengzhi's disciple, and behind him was the entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. Now that Dugu Bo has left him and joined the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School behind Xue Qinghe, this guy is probably laughing in his dreams.
"No, Uncle, why would you think that?"
Xue Qinghe's lips curled up slightly when Xue Xing said that. Although he said something in denial, he couldn't hide the smile on his face.
"snort!"
Xue Xing felt like he was about to explode. If he didn't deal with Dugu Bo today, he would probably be locked up in the clan's territory for the rest of his life.
Thinking about his current treatment as a prince, and then thinking about the commoner-like life in his clan's territory, he felt that he could not live a single day like that.
"snort!"
Xue Xing snorted and got up to walk towards Dugu Bo. He wanted to communicate with Dugu Bo again, and this time he had to show all his sincerity.
Ning Fengzhi, who was mingling in the crowd, naturally saw this scene, but he just smiled slightly and didn't pay any attention to it.
The oath of a martial spirit is not something a soul master can break at will. Although it is ineffective, most people who believe in it will abide by it.
In addition, given Gu Xuan's personal charm, he believed that Dugu Bo would not make the wrong choice.
"Teacher, where is Brother Gu Xuan?"
Xue Qinghe came to Ning Fengzhi's side and asked in a low voice.
This question immediately made Gu Rong, who was standing next to Ning Fengzhi, narrow his eyes.
Xue Qinghe felt his body stiffen, as if he had been noticed by some great terror.
However, this pressure was purely oppressive and did not contain any emotions such as murderous intent.
"Heh, Xiao Xuan doesn't like crowds, so he didn't come. He's probably still cultivating right now."
Ning Fengzhi naturally noticed Xue Qinghe's change, but he did not make excuses for him. After all, Gu Rong had been holding his anger in for a long time, and what if he hurt his health if he didn't vent it?
"Hmph, Xuan'er is still young and his attention should naturally be focused on cultivation. You brat, don't come looking for him if you don't have anything to do, and don't come looking for him if you have something to do. If you dare to lead Xuan'er astray again, I'll break your dog legs."
Gu Rong still remembers that Gu Xuan only had a short time to get to know whale glue after coming into contact with Xue Qinghe. If he had been in contact with it more, who knows what kind of infection he would have gotten into!
Although he didn't object to Gu Xuan finding women, he couldn't let him spend money like royalty.
?
A big question mark appeared above Xue Qinghe's head.
His recent contact with Gu Xuan was over two months ago, and their conversations mostly revolved around the situation between Soul Masters and the Imperial forces. How could he have corrupted Gu Xuan?
"Senior Gu Rong, have you misunderstood something? How could I have led Brother Xuan astray?"
Xue Qinghe felt he had to wash this dirty water clean, otherwise he might never have the chance to come into contact with Gu Xuan again.
"Hmph, you know best whether it's true or not."
Gu Rong snorted coldly and did not reveal Gu Xuan's matter, as a gesture of respect to Xue Qinghe.
"Alright, Qinghe, Uncle Gu is very concerned about Xiao Xuan's training and is afraid that others will affect Xiao Xuan's cultivation. That's why Poison Douluo was invited back by Uncle Gu to protect Xuan'er. Even our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has no authority to deploy Poison Douluo. He obeys Xiao Xuan's orders completely."
Ning Fengzhi interrupted Xue Qinghe's attempt to get to the bottom of things, and glanced at Dugu Bo before speaking.
"?"
What?!
Xue Qinghe's eyes widened. Although he knew that Dugu Bo had joined the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, he did not expect that he would join in this way. What difference was there between this and becoming a slave?
You should know that Dugu Bo was unwilling to join even the Spirit Hall back then, but now he is willing to be Gu Xuan's servant?
Are you kidding me?
"Do you understand now? So it's best not to disturb Xiao Xuan's cultivation unless necessary. To Uncle Gu, Xiao Xuan is his lifeblood. If you disturb Xiao Xuan's cultivation one day, don't blame me for not warning you."
Ning Fengzhi treated Xue Qinghe fairly well, subtly reminding him to refrain from telling Gu Xuan those indecent things in the future.
But Xue Qinghe interpreted it as a warning: don't come to Gu Xuan's cultivation again. If you disturb Gu Xuan's cultivation and cause him to fall behind even a little, he'll be held accountable.
"Can Brother Xuan handle such a large amount of cultivation?"
Xue Qinghe stared wide-eyed and asked.
He even skipped banquets to focus on cultivation, which shows just how passionate Gu Xuan is about it.
But how can a six-year-old child suppress such a depraved and insane cultivation?
"Hmph, who do you think Xuan'er is? Don't compare your trash to my Xuan'er."
Gu Rong proudly raised his head when he saw Xue Qinghe questioning Gu Xuan's cultivation intensity.
Judging from his grandson Gu Xuan's passion for cultivation, he was certain that Tang Hao's accumulation of experience to break through to the Title Douluo level would definitely be surpassed by his grandson.
Xue Qinghe fell silent. Was he a waste?
He's only fifteen and already at level forty-two, that's...
Thinking about that vixen from the Spirit Hall, who was level 30 at the age of twelve, he seemed to have indeed become much more lax.
If someone with innate soul power at level nine can reach such a level, then what about Gu Xuan?
He was born with full soul power and devoted all his time to cultivation. Wouldn't it be very likely that he would surpass her in the future?
Suddenly, Xue Qinghe felt a sense of urgency.
He has innate level 20 soul power. If he is surpassed by Gu Xuan in the future, wouldn't that be a disgrace to the Angel God?
Seeing Xue Qinghe lost in a daze, the ancient banyan tree proudly raised its head.
What I'm trying to do is crush your spirits, you piece of trash! What kind of people are you? You dare to waste your grandson's cultivation time? Don't you know that your Xuan'er circulates his soul power dozens of times per hour?
One day of mine is equivalent to ten days of your useless efforts. How can you compare?
After Xue Qinghe came to her senses, she stopped worrying about Gu Xuan and instead followed Ning Fengzhi to learn his various ways of dealing with people.
As a Soul Saint, Ning Fengzhi's ability to become the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is indeed something Xue Qinghe should learn from.
However, Xue Qinghe often spaced out during the learning process.
On the other side, Xue Xing followed Dugu Bo like a weed, no matter how hard he tried to get rid of her.
As time passed, the banquet gradually ended, and the people gradually left, but Xuexing still surrounded Dugu Bo.
Dugu Bo refrained from direct anger out of consideration for their past relationship.
But he kept glancing at the sky, knowing that time was almost up.
"How many times do I have to say it? I've already pledged allegiance to someone else. I don't have time to deal with your messy affairs with the Heavenly Dou Empire anymore. Go find someone else!"
Dugu Bo's face turned very ugly. He waved his hand to sweep Xue Xing aside and took a step forward, but he stumbled and then disappeared into the hall in the next instant.
