"Sigh ?"
Du Shaofu sighed slightly. As the time of the Thunderbolt Demon Lion protecting the Stone City was approaching an end after several hundred years, it even laid out a big plan to completely remove all the hidden dangers of the Stone City. However, in the end, it was still unable to escape its death.
"What are you sighing for? The coming death of that Thunderbolt Demon Lion is all because of its old ailments. If the old ailments can be cured, it will surely be able to revive.? Zhen Qingchun said to Du Shaofu disapprovingly.
"What did you say? Does it mean that you can heal Senior Thunderbolt Demon Lion's injuries?" Du Shaofu's gaze immediately fell tightly on Zhen Qingchun's body.
"Why are you so nervous, calling a Demon Beast senior? Back then, you weren't that respectful to me."
Zhen Qingchun curled his lips. Thinking about how this abnormal bastard had used a child's urine to suppress his evilness, he felt great anger.
"Brother Qingchun. Since you are my big brother already, why are you being so stingy? Now I respect you from the bottom of my heart."
Hearing that, Du Shaofu's face was immediately filled with a smile, and said to Zhen Qingchun: "Tell me, is there any way to cure Senior Thunderbolt Demon Lion's injuries?"
Zhen Qingchun looked at Du Shaofu, and said: "That Thunderbolt Demon Lion has nothing to do with you. Why are you in such a hurry?"
"After all, I have received the benefits from Senior Thunderbolt Demon Lion in the thunder pool before. Let's just consider it as repaying the favour."
Some emotion appeared in Du Shaofu's eyes. In fact, even himself could not tell why he wanted to help the Thunderbolt Demon Lion. Perhaps seeing it in the stone room was like seeing an old man who had sacrificed a lot for the Stone City, which made him extremely touched. If he could help out with what he could, it would make his heart feel a little better.
"If you are counting like this, then I have also obtained some small benefits from it in the thunder pool."
Zhen Qingchun looked at Du Shaofu, his shining triangular eyes also appeared more serious, and said: "That Thunderbolt Demon Lion was once poisoned, and it?s not just any ordinary poison, thus very hard to deal with. It is the poisoning that leads the Thunderbolt Demon Lion to this point."
"What kind of poison?" Du Shaofu asked.
"It should be the poison of a Flame Poison Demon Flood Dragon. The Flame Poison Demon Flood Dragon is a kind of Flood Dragon and can be considered a branch of Dragon Clan. However, it is far inferior to the true Dragon Clan. Still, its bloodline is also very strong."
Zhen Qingchun said: "All the Demon Beasts with the bloodline of the Dragon Clan are extremely strong existences.
"How did you know?" Du Shaofu asked.
Zhen Qingchun rolled his eyes at Du Shaofu, and said: "There exists the Blood Essence of the Thunderbolt Demon Lion inside the Ye Family's thunder pool. I also received some benefits from the thunder pool, so I knew about the condition of that Thunderbolt Demon Lion."
"That is to say, if we are to treat the poisoning in Senior Thunderbolt Demon Lion's body, the only way is to remove the poison from that Flame Poison Demon Flood Dragon?" Du Shaofu raised his gaze.
Zhen Qingchun raised his gaze, and said towards Du Shaofu with a hint of ridicule: "Do you think the poison in the Flame Poison Demon Flood Dragon's body is any kind of ordinary poison? That Thunderbolt Demon Lion?s bloodline isn't weak either, so the ordinary kind of poison is basically useless against it. However, the poison in the Flame Poison Demon Flood Dragon's body is extremely strong that even some of the top Medicine Talisman Masters might not be able to deal with it."
Hearing this, Du Shaofu immediately frowned, his gaze focused, but immediately after, he looked at Zhen Qingchun and said: "Brother Qingchun, based on your tone, you must have some solution. Don't keep me in suspense."
"Heh heh."
Zhen Qingchun laughed, but his laughter was not pleasing to the eye. He looked at Du Shaofu and said: "You are the one who have the solution. Not me."
"How could I have the solution?" Du Shaofu was startled, his face full of suspicions.
Zhen Qingchun rolled his eyes at Du Shaofu, looking like an old scholar: "You are still just a rookie after all, knowing too little. Don't forget that you are cultivating the techniques of the Golden Winged Roc Clan, and the blood flowing in your body is almost the same as the Golden Winged Roc's."
"Does that matter?" Du Shaofu still did not understand.
"Don't interrupt. Let me finish."
Zhen Qingchun impolitely said to Du Shaofu, "Did you know about the rumor that back in ancient times the Truth Roc, which roamed the universe, all ate dragons as food? Even though the Golden Winged Roc can't compare to the Truth Roc that smothered the heavens and earth in the ancient times, the Flame Poison Demon Flood Dragon is still incomparable to the true Dragon Clan. Therefore, you are completely able to suppress the Flame Poison Demon Flood Dragon."
After pausing for a while, Zhen Qingchun continued to say: "If my guess is correct, as long as you use your blood as the medicine for the Thunderbolt Demon Lion to consume, and use the Profound Qi to help expel the poison for the Thunderbolt Demon Lion, I believe that not only will the poisoning caused by the Flame Poison Demon be dispelled, perhaps it can even obtain quite a few benefits. One must know that your blood is more or less similar to the blood of the Golden Winged Roc. That is great treasure to all the Demon Beasts, and a small quantity would serve as great benefits.?
"Is that so?" Du Shaofu was surprised himself.
"Someone's coming. I'll enter the pagoda."
Zhen Qingchun felt someone approaching and immediately turned into an energy wave, entering the small pagoda in Du Shaofu's embrace.
"Shaofu, are you there?"
As Zhen Qingchun entered the small tower, Du Zhixiong's voice came out from the courtyard.
"Second Uncle, why are you here personally?"
Surprised, Du Shaofu opened the door and quickly walked into the courtyard. It was his second uncle, Du Zhixiong, who came with a wine jar in his hands. In the courtyard, Shaofu?s alcoholic dad was still lying on the rattan chair, drunk and enjoying himself. The jar of good wine was clearly for his alcoholic dad.
"How is it? Have you recovered? Are your injuries serious?"
Upon seeing Du Shaofu, Du Zhixiong immediately asked nervously, as his gaze also carefully sized up Du Shaofu's body.
"There are no major problems now. It's just a small matter."
Du Shaofu smiled. It was obvious that Second Uncle Du Zhixiong's injuries had not yet recovered, but there should not be big problems.
"It's good that you're fine." Du Zhixiong laughed, and then, as if he had thought of something, said: "I forgot to say, the girl from the Ye Family is still waiting for you, asking you to go to the Ye Family for some matter. Your first uncle told you to go and take a look."
"Yes."
Du Shaofu nodded, then turned to his alcoholic father on the rattan chair and said, "Father, I'll be going out for a while then. Second Uncle can accompany you to have a chat, but don't drink so much."
Afterwards, Du Shaofu left the courtyard.
Watching Du Shaofu's back as he left the courtyard, Du Zhixiong retracted his gaze and sat down on the rattan chair, placing the jar of wine on Du Tingxuan's stomach, and said: "Lao San, you have raised a good son."
Du Tingxuan sat up, his nose sniffing the wine jar greedily, and said softly: "Good wine."
"Lao San, I'm talking to you. I've discussed it with our big brother and we plan to send Shaofu to the main clan. With Shaofu's talent right now, he can only receive the best training in the main clan; if he continues to stay in the Stone City, it would only destroy him." Du Zhixiong looked at Du Tingxuan and said.
Du Tingxuan raised his head, his long hair covering his face, looked at Du Zhixiong, and said softly: "My brother, I said it before, we are not related to main clan anymore, forever!"
Du Zhixiong looked at Du Tingxuan, his gaze fluctuating, he hesitated for a bit, and then asked: "Lao San (the third brother), can you tell us what exactly happened sixteen years ago? You returned from the main clan without notice sixteen years ago, and we have not had contact with them since then. Now you have changed and are no longer that high-spirited person you were back then."
"Don't ask anymore. The situation is quite good right now, it's already pretty good," Du Tingxuan said lightly.
"Alright, I won't ask anymore."
Du Zhixiong did not ask anymore. Over the past few years, he had asked countless of times, and this was already the first time that Lao San talked the most.
"Lao San, just stop drinking like this. Our big brother and I have always been waiting for the old Lao San to come back."
With that, Du Zhixiong stood up and left the courtyard.
On the vine chair, Du Tingxuan stared blankly ahead. After a long while, he stroked his hair that was in disarray on his forehead, revealing a handsome and resolute face. Under his thick eyebrows, his eyes were deep and big, unusually bright, like two twinkling stars in the night.
"That's good enough. We are good. Ao Tong, what about you?"
"Greetings, Brother Shaofu."
"Shaofu, have you recovered?"
"?"
Du Shaofu left the courtyard, and under the greetings of various Du Family clansmen, he arrived at the hall and met Ye Zijin from the Ye Family.
After seeing Du Shaofu, Ye Zijin's tense expression relaxed slightly.
From Ye Zijin's words, Du Shaofu found out that the Thunderbolt Demon Lion wanted to meet him, so he immediately followed Ye Zijin to the Ye Family.
An hour later, the two of them hastily rode the Demon Beast Mount and arrived at the Ye Family. Du Shaofu looked at Ye Zijin, who was standing beside him with an expression of frown on her pretty face, and could not help but ask: "Miss Ye, why does senior Thunderbolt Demon Lion want to see me?"
Hearing that, Ye Zijin slightly changed her expression and squeezed out a smile: "I don't know either. The Thunder Ancestor said that he wanted to see you, so I went to the Du Family to look for you."
"Could it be Senior Thunderbolt Demon Lion?"
Du Shaofu's gaze sunk a bit as he wrinkled his brows. He did not say the rest of his words out loud, but he believed that Ye Zijin was able to guess.
Ye Zijin seemed to be surprised that Du Shaofu could guess about it, and the smile on her face suddenly disappeared as she looked at Du Shaofu. She hesitated for a moment, and then said: "You are guessing correctly, the Thunder Ancestor might not be able to make it."
Hearing that, Du Shaofu's expression changed, and he immediately urged Ye Zijin: "Quickly! Bring me there, quickly."
Ye Zijin was doubtful as it seemed that Du Shaofu was even more concerned about the Thunder Ancestor than the people from the Ye Family. Anyway, she also quickened her pace.
