Chapter 24 - Chapter 24 - The Method of Detoxification

Xu Mingxi took off his black robe, walked out of the private room, and walked toward Dugu Xin who was sitting waiting outside.

After Dugu Xin came out, she kept her eyes on the private room. When she saw Xu Mingxi appear and walk towards her, she was slightly stunned for a moment.

She had seen this face before. Although four years had passed since the Soul Master Competition, she still had some impression of Xu Mingxi's face.

After all, Xu Mingxi was the only one young enough to participate in the next Soul Master Competition.

Everyone thought he would go on to attend Canghui College and lead the team in the next Soul Master Competition to show his skills, but no one expected that Xu Mingxi would directly apply to graduate and there was no news of him for four years.

"Senior Dugu Xin, could you please pay me a visit?"

Xu Mingxi stepped aside to make room for her, pointing his palm upwards, to another private room.

Of course, this private room was reserved in advance. Seven people could discuss, but they couldn't sleep in the same room. Dugu Xin didn't refuse the request, so he followed Xu Mingxi into the private room.

"Senior Dugu, please take a seat. Judging from your expression earlier, you must recognize me."

"Of course. I'll never forget that you were the youngest contestant in the Soul Master Competition."

"Senior, you're joking. We agree to your terms. After this matter is over, you will receive a 2,000 year old soul bone."

Dugu Xin was a little disappointed. What he wanted more was the antidote. The soul bone wasn't bad either. At least Qing'er's future would be easier.

But Xu Mingxi's next words made her heart pound again.

"If I'm not mistaken, what poisoned that senior must have been the deadly poison produced by the green scale snake itself."

Dugu Xin immediately stood up, and her already stiff and pale face was now completely bloodless. This is the biggest secret of the Dugu family.

"Who are you?"

"Introduce myself again, I'm Xu Mingxi of the Star Crown Sect.

Dugu Senior, don't be nervous. The reason I know this news is because one of our sect ancestors knew a Green Scaled Snake Soul Master."

Dugu Xin suppressed his fear and sat down, his hands still trembling uncontrollably.

Now he had only reached level 56 Soul King, and he arrived at Moon Lake by chance with some friends.

At that time, they were tracking a 20,000-year-old human-faced demon spider and got lost.

Even if they reacted in time and turned back, among their group of more than a dozen people, the weakest was the Soul King, and there were even two Soul Saints, but only three survived in the end.

Although Dugu Xin fortunately survived, but because of the overdraft, the poison penetrated deep into his bones and most of his hair turned green overnight.

"Then, please keep this a secret, Mr. Xu."

"Of course, but there are some things recorded in the ancestral records.

It seems to be about delaying the poison outbreak. I wonder if you want to know."

Dugu Xin's heart was beating fast. This poison had plagued the Dugu family for too long.

If only this poison didn't exist, my father would have become a Titled Douluo long ago.

She forced herself to remain calm, but her words trembled.

"Really? I wonder what Mr. Xu wants from me."

"Senior, you misunderstand. I just want to be friends with you and Senior Dugu Bo behind your back."

"If it really helps, you'll become an eternal friend of my Dugu family."

Xu Mingxi said so much, waiting for this sentence. He took out a note from his hand and handed it to Dugu Xin.   

"This method may need to be supplemented with the treatment of certain medicines, which are not recorded in the ancestral records. We will have to rely on Dugu Bo Senior."

Dugu Xin took the note and looked at it, her face suddenly changed. Soul bones.

However, for the Contra family, lower year soul bones can still be obtained.

At worst, they could have committed mass murder in the Forest of Souls Beast. The Dugu family is the best at killing, and the best at killing in groups.

Finally, there was a solution. As for the problem of supporting medicine, he was sure that his father who had been studying green scaly snake venom all his life would have a solution.

"Well, if this method works, my Dugu family will remember Mr. Xu's kindness."

Dugu Xin hurriedly bid farewell to Xu Mingxi and asked her trusted friends in the city to quickly relay this news to Dugu Bo.

Once you enter Star Dou's Great Forest, no one can guarantee that you'll be able to come out safely.

Dugu Xin was also afraid that he would accidentally die there, so he quickly broke the news to his father first.

After this battle, Dugu Xin began to trust Xu Mingxi and the others a little more. At least he no longer had to worry about them doing something bad to him.

After resting for the day, Dugu Xin led everyone into Star Dou's Great Forest and toward the Moon Lake.

Dugu Bo, who was far away in Heaven Dou City, opened the letter his son had sent him at full speed.

As soon as he saw the beginning, his face changed drastically and he read ten lines at once.

Soon, after reading the letter, Dugu Bo collapsed into his chair.

"There is hope, there is hope, Xin'er is saved."

Dugu Bo rushed to his medicinal garden and started experimenting with what kind of herbs could help with the poison.

However, although there were many types of medicines in his medicinal garden in Heaven Dou City, they were all common medicinal materials.

"No, no, no, this still won't work."

Dugu Bo picked and sorted, but none of them were to his taste. He began to think about entering the Soul Beast Forest to search for precious medicine.

Xu Mingxi didn't know that because of him, Dugu Bo entered the Sunset Forest first. A group of eight people wore black robes and moved quickly in the Star Forest.

The Great Elder and the two invading elders stood in the front and back, the Second Elder and the two controlling-type Soul Douluo elders formed a triangle, and Xu Mingxi, the Fourth Elder, and Dugu Xin were protected in the center.

As Dugu Xin pointed the way, he stole a glance at Xu Mingxi. Only then did he remember Xu Mingxi's self-introduction back then, that he was from the Star Crown Sect.

From what Dugu Xin saw, the one in front was a Titled Douluo, and the one beside him was a Soul Douluo.

As for the others, clearly they were not bad either. With their strength, they were almost as strong as the top three sects. How could Dugu Xin not feel afraid?

What's more, she already knew that this time she was out to help Xu Mingxi obtain the fifth soul ring.

What kind of power could send out such a lineup to help a disciple obtain the fifth soul ring, and what kind of talented disciple was worth sending out such a lineup.

Dugu Xin remembered Xu Mingxi's face back then, then remembered the Xu Mingxi he met two days ago. He was certain that Xu Mingxi was definitely not eighteen years old back then, and he was now around eighteen.

For a moment, Dugu Xin didn't know whether she should be happy for having found a solution to the poison, or happy for having such a strong supporter by her side.

"Dugu Senior, we should be arriving soon."

"Uh, yes, yes, we have entered the inner area. Moon Lake will be reachable in another three or four days."

Xu Mingxi's words awakened Dugu Xin. She didn't dare look around anymore and concentrated on acting as a guide.
