"Good."
Yu Nan affirmed:
"The Po clan is skilled in medicine making and poison refining."
Their clan leader, Yang Wudi, wielded the Soul-Breaking Spear with unparalleled skill, making its attack power arguably the pinnacle of Contra.
It can even withstand attacks from ordinary Title Douluos.
Although this sounds a bit outrageous.
However, Yang Wudi's performance in the Heavenly Dou Palace Coup was indeed remarkable.
"Why would we need to see them?"
Dugu Bo was somewhat surprised, and his brows furrowed slightly:
"That Yang Wudi is a notoriously stubborn mule, both stubborn and obstinate, and because of what happened with the Haotian Sect back then, he is extremely resistant to the outside world."
If we go to him, we're afraid we'll be turned away.
"Being turned away?"
Yu Nan chuckled, his tone brimming with confidence that he was in complete control:
That's someone else.
Subduing the Broken Clan is a piece of cake for us.
"What you mean, senior, is..."
"Build up your power."
Yu Nan's voice became serious:
"Relying on just the two of you, grandfather and grandson, is ultimately too weak and powerless."
To establish a foothold in this chaotic world, and even to rival the Spirit Hall, one must have one's own core group.
It's unrealistic to build a force that can rival the Spirit Hall.
They can only rely on their own strength.
However, building up one's own power base is still very necessary.
"The Destroyer Clan is the best foundation."
"Not only are they formidable fighters, but more importantly, their expertise in drug research can perfectly assist Yan Yan in her cultivation."
It can also help you make better use of the resources of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.
Dugu Bo nodded repeatedly, but still had some concerns:
"What you say is absolutely right."
But Yang Wudi is stubborn and won't listen to reason. How can we subdue him?
Should we just beat them into submission?
"Subduing him by force is a last resort."
Yu Nan said calmly:
"Winning hearts and minds is the best strategy."
Yang Wudi's greatest obsession in life, besides seeking revenge against the Spirit Hall, was alchemy.
"But for someone obsessed with alchemy, there is one thing he absolutely cannot refuse."
As he spoke, a thought suddenly occurred to Yu Nan.
Dugu Yan felt a blur before her eyes, and a strange, magical herb appeared out of thin air in her hand.
It was a large, pale pink flower with no leaves, a stem three feet long, and extremely large blossoms.
The petals are layered upon each other, emitting a faint fragrance.
This fragrance is not strong, but it has a magical power to calm the mind, as if it can soothe all the restlessness in the world.
"This is..."
Dugu Bo's pupils contracted sharply. As a master of poisons, he immediately recognized the extraordinary nature of this herb:
"A fragrant and exquisite fairy-like product?!"
"You know your stuff."
Yu Nan said proudly:
"This flower is the nemesis of all poisons, capable of neutralizing all poisons, and it never withers."
For alchemists, it is a priceless treasure, a coveted divine object.
"Just put this in front of Yang Wudi, and he'll agree without hesitation to join you, or even to be your slave."
Dugu Bo looked at the fragrant Qiluo Immortal Plant and couldn't help but swallow.
This thing was also extremely tempting to him, but he knew that using it to subdue the Broken Clan would be making the best use of it.
"high!
That's brilliant!
Dugu Bo gave a thumbs up and exclaimed in sincere praise:
"With your methods, Yang Wudi will likely be completely under your control."
"In that case, let's set off immediately!"
...
Several days later.
Star Luo Empire, Dragon Rising City.
The Po clan's residence is located in the north of the city. It covers a large area, but appears somewhat desolate and solemn.
On the tall gate tower, the four characters "The Broken Clan" are powerful and vigorous, exuding an unyielding pride.
"stop!
Who is it?
Two disciples of the Broken Clan, dressed in black, blocked Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan's path, their expressions wary.
Dugu Bo stood with his hands behind his back, his dark green robe fluttering even without wind.
The slightest release of the Title Douluo's aura caused the two disciples to turn pale and their legs to go weak.
"Go tell Yang Wudi that his old friend Dugu Bo has come to visit."
Dugu Bo spoke calmly, his voice not loud, yet it clearly reached deep into the mansion.
"Du...Dugu Bo?"
Poison Douluo?!
The two disciples were so frightened that they dared not stop them and scrambled inside to report.
A moment later.
A deep, gunpowder-filled voice came from inside the mansion:
"Old Poisoner?"
Why are you not enjoying a life of leisure in Tiandou City, but instead coming to my poor, remote place?
"Could it be that you wish to spar with this old man?"
As the voice faded, a tall, stern-faced old man strode out.
His hair and beard were all white, but he was vigorous and energetic, with bright and piercing eyes, and exuded a sharp and fierce aura.
It was as if he himself was a sharp spear drawn from its sheath.
It was none other than Yang Wudi, the patriarch of the Po clan!
Seeing Yang Wudi's ready-to-fight stance, Dugu Bo wasn't angry; instead, he laughed heartily.
"Old Yang, it's been so many years, and you're still as hot-tempered as ever."
"Enough with the nonsense!"
Yang Wudi snorted coldly, his gaze sweeping warily over Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan behind him:
"One does not visit the Three Treasures Hall without a reason."
You old poisoner, you never do anything without a profit. So, tell me, what do you want from me?
If you're trying to recruit me into any faction, then don't bother asking and just leave!
Dugu Bo wasn't annoyed; he just smiled mysteriously and flipped his hand.
The fragrant and exquisite plant instantly appeared in his hand.
A faint fragrance drifted on the wind and instantly entered Yang Wudi's nostrils.
Yang Wudi, who had been looking impatient, froze the moment he smelled the fragrance.
His nose twitched twice, then his eyes widened suddenly as he stared intently at the large pink flower in Dugu Bo's hand.
That look in his eyes was like that of a beggar who hadn't eaten for three days seeing a feast fit for an emperor.
It's like a lecherous man seeing an unparalleled beauty.
It was filled with shock, longing, disbelief, and... madness!
"This...this is..."
Yang Wudi's voice trembled. He reached out his hand shakily, wanting to touch it, but he dared not, fearing that it was just an illusion.
"A fragrant and exquisite fairy-like product?!"
"Is it really the Fragrant Silk Immortal Delicacy?!"
Seeing Yang Wudi's flustered state, Dugu Bo felt secretly pleased, but on the surface, he maintained a calm and composed demeanor.
"Chief Yang has a good eye."
This is it.
"How about it?
Would you be interested in sitting down and having a chat?
"please!"
Yang Wudi practically spat out the word through gritted teeth, then stepped aside to make way for him, gesturing for him to proceed.
But his eyes never left the fragrant Qiluo Immortal Item in Dugu Bo's hands.
It was as if they were afraid that this treasure would fly away in the blink of an eye.
Dugu Bo smiled slightly, flipped his hand, and the immortal herb that Yang Wudi longed for disappeared into thin air and was returned to his soul tool.
"you--!"
Yang Wudi's breath hitched, and his face flushed instantly, as if someone had grabbed his neck.
"Don't be in such a hurry, old goat."
Dugu Bo, with his hands behind his back, swaggered across the threshold, his tone leisurely:
"The item is right here with me, it can't get away."
Since we're discussing business, we should naturally sit down and talk things over calmly.
