Seeing the harmonious relationship between the master and disciple pair, Dugu Yan couldn't help but chuckle again, feeling the warmth of their bond.
She thought to herself, They're so harmonious! I really envy their teacher-student relationship.
"Pfft... Little brother, you're really interesting. But I need to go see my grandfather, so I won't chat with you anymore. I'll take my leave now!"
"Alright, big sister, goodbye!! My na is Xiao Yu. If you have ti, you can co to Blue Tyrant Academy to play with !"
"Sure, I'll co find you when I'm free!! By the way, little brother, you can call Sister Yan Yan from now on! It sounds more intimate."
Dugu Yan patted Xiao Yu's head and smiled gently.
She felt a fondness for this little brother who had praised her grandfather so sincerely—sothing she hadn't heard in years.
"Okay, Sister Yan Yan!!"
"Mmm, so well-behaved."
"Damn it..."
Seeing how easily Dugu Yan was chard by Xiao Yu's words and even allowed him to call her so affectionately, Yu Tianheng felt as though his heart was being torn apart.
He had worked so hard, sending flowers, water, and warmth to Dugu Yan.
He had spent all his monthly allowance buying things for her, even though she never accepted them.
Despite all his efforts, he could barely get Dugu Yan to speak to him kindly.
And yet, this kid, with just a few words and so praise for Dugu Bo, had made Dugu Yan smile nonstop.
The Dugu Yan before him now was nothing like the cold, distant girl he usually faced.
Her gentle smile was sothing Yu Tianheng had only ever seen in his dreams.
My heavens, is the gap between and this kid really that big?
I, Yu Tianheng, the young master of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family, have actually lost to a little kid?!
At this mont, Yu Tianheng began to question his life.
Where did I go wrong?
I could have said all those things Xiao Yu just said.
The only reason I didn't was that I thought it was unnecessary.
Dugu Yan, however, didn't care about Yu Tianheng's thoughts. She didn't even glance at him.
After waving goodbye to Xiao Yu and Liu Erlong, Dugu Yan prepared to leave.
But as Wo Long exhaled another Radiant Breath toward Liu Erlong to continue easing her pain, Dugu Yan, who was standing nearby, was inadvertently affected by the residual energy of the breath.
In just a short mont, Dugu Yan felt the toxins in her body, which had been calm, suddenly begin to stir.
Soon, under the influence of the toxins, her face turned deathly pale.
She collapsed toward Xiao Yu like a fragile porcelain doll, her lips turning from bright red to a sickly green.
"Big sister!!"
"Yanzi!!"
Seeing Dugu Yan collapse, Xiao Yu quickly caught her slender waist, letting her lean against him.
Dugu Yan, who was only twelve or thirteen years old, wasn't much taller than Xiao Yu, who had just obtained his first spirit ring at the age of seven.
Holding her wasn't a problem.
However, Xiao Yu had no ti to enjoy the faint fragrance emanating from Dugu Yan or the feel of her slender waist. Instead, he was filled with confusion. Is this a poison flare-up?
"What's going on? Why did Yanzi suddenly beco like this?! What should we do?!"
Yu Tianheng, seeing Dugu Yan's condition, panicked. He didn't know what to do and didn't dare touch her, afraid of hurting her or himself.
Liu Erlong's expression also turned grim as she instinctively looked at Xiao Yu, feeling uneasy.
This was Dugu Yan, the only granddaughter of Dugu Bo. If sothing happened to her while she was with them, not even the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family could handle the fallout.
The revenge of a Titled Douluo, especially one who specialized in poison, would be catastrophic.
How many people would have to die to satisfy his wrath?
"Xiao Yu, what's going on?"
Liu Erlong asked in a hoarse voice, her face pale.
Xiao Yu, recalling the original story and the current situation, quickly ca up with a possibility and explained,
"Big sister must have been poisoned. Look at her lips—they've changed color. Teacher, do you know where His Excellency Dugu's residence is? If it's poisoning, it's best to take her directly to him!"
Hearing this, Liu Erlong's face turned even paler as she replied,
"I... I don't know..."
She had been living in seclusion at Blue Tyrant Academy, spending her days pining for her beloved Xiaogang.
She rarely involved herself in academy affairs, only handling major matters.
If it weren't for Xiao Yu, Liu Erlong wouldn't have been so active in the academy.
"I know!"
Yu Tianheng quickly interjected, eager to prove his usefulness.
However, his expression changed when he heard Xiao Yu's next instructions.
"Good, then you go and inform His Excellency Dugu to co to Blue Tyrant Academy. It's closer here, and the academy's teachers can help suppress Sister Yan Yan's poison temporarily. If we take her directly to His Excellency Dugu's residence, the poison might worsen during the journey, and that would be even more troubleso."
"What?! You want to go find the Poison Douluo?! I... I can't do that. How about I take you there instead..."
Yu Tianheng, upon hearing that Xiao Yu wanted him to go find Dugu Bo, was filled with terror.
He didn't want to go.
After being threatened by Dugu Bo last ti, Yu Tianheng had been terrified of him.
If it weren't for the fact that pursuing Dugu Yan was a family mission and that she was his ideal type, he would have stayed far away from her.
"How can you not go?! You're the only one here who knows where His Excellency Dugu's residence is. Besides, I need to take the severely injured Teacher Erlong and Sister Yan Yan back to the academy. I also need to use Wolong to heal Teacher Erlong. I don't have ti to go with you!"
Seeing Yu Tianheng's cowardly deanor, Xiao Yu frowned deeply.
He hadn't expected Yu Tianheng to be so timid.
He didn't even have the courage to face Dugu Bo.
How did soone like him manage to pursue Dugu Yan in the original story?
Was it really just through underhanded thods?
"..."
At this mont, Liu Erlong also spoke up with a serious expression, trying to persuade Yu Tianheng.
"Tianheng, if I'm not mistaken, you want to pursue her, right? Listen to . If you go now, you'll indirectly beco one of Yan Yan's saviors!
By doing this, not only will you leave a good impression on His Excellency Dugu, but you'll also make Yan Yan see you in a new light. When that happens, won't your chances increase?!"
