Dugu Bo sneered coldly and stamped one foot down on Tang San's hand."Still daring to lie to me?"
Tang San sucked in a sharp breath, his face twitching uncontrollably.
Ten fingers were connected to the heart. With Dugu Bo crushing his hand underfoot, the pain was almost unbearable.
"Senior Dugu, please don't do this!" the Master panicked and shouted.
Dugu Bo lifted his foot—then brought it down on the Master's hand instead, laughing as he said,"Since you don't want me stepping on him, I'll step on you. You tell me—what's the real reason you came looking for Ao Tian?"
"Senior Dugu, please don't step on my teacher!" Tang San cried anxiously.
"Don't worry. Your turn might come again in a moment," Dugu Bo said indifferently.
The Master endured the intense pain and said through clenched teeth,"Senior Dugu, everything that needed to be said has already been said. What Xiao San said earlier was all true."
"True?" Dugu Bo sneered and applied a little more force.
Crack!
The Master's face instantly turned deathly pale.
His hand bones had been crushed under Dugu Bo's foot.
"Teacher!" Tang San shouted urgently.
Dugu Bo immediately stomped down on Tang San's hand as well.
Crack!
Tang San's face also turned pale, cold sweat instantly breaking out across his forehead.
"Still stubborn even at death's door. You're practically dying already, yet you still dared to covet my immortal herbs, hiding their true effects from me. Even I have to admire your courage," Dugu Bo said with a cold laugh.
"How is that possible?! How could Dugu Bo know the effects of the immortal herbs? In this world, aside from me, no one should be able to recognize them!" Tang San screamed in disbelief in his heart.
The shock was even more unbearable than the pain of broken bones.
The Master was utterly panicked now, a trace of despair appearing in his eyes.
He never expected Dugu Bo to know the true effects of the immortal herbs.
Dugu Bo was someone who walked the line between good and evil—a man who killed without blinking. Now that he knew he'd been deceived, he might truly kill them.
How could the Master not be afraid?
"This is all my fault… I'm the one who harmed Xiao San. If I hadn't told him to come here, none of this would have happened…"The Master was consumed with regret, wishing he could slap himself twice.
Unfortunately, he had no strength left in his body.
First, he had sent Tang San to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, getting him brutally beaten.Now he had brought Tang San here—putting his life in danger.
The Master even began to suspect that he was a walking jinx, constantly dragging his disciple into disaster.
"What? Cat got your tongue now that I've exposed you?" Dugu Bo sneered.
"You used me to look for Ao Tian, and you even wanted to secretly keep my immortal herbs for yourselves. What a well-planned scheme."
The aura around Dugu Bo grew colder and colder.It was killing intent.
He truly intended to kill Tang San and the Master.
Feeling that murderous intent, despair slowly crept into Tang San's heart.
The Master had once thoroughly explained Dugu Bo's temperament and methods to him. In a situation like this, killing someone to vent his anger was entirely normal for Dugu Bo.
Tang San was unwilling to accept this outcome.
What he couldn't understand was how Dugu Bo had learned the effects of the immortal herbs.
Had someone from Shrek Academy leaked the information?
Only a few teachers and four students at Shrek knew the truth. It was very likely that Dugu Bo had learned it from one of them.
"Senior Dugu, can you tell me how you learned the effects of the immortal herbs?" Tang San asked unwillingly.
If someone really had betrayed him, he had to know who it was. Otherwise, he would never die in peace.
Dugu Bo replied coldly,"Does that matter? All I know is that you deceived me and tried to take my things for yourselves. Since you dared to do it, you must pay the price!"
"Senior Dugu, you can't kill me! If you kill me, no one will be able to cure your poison!" Tang San said urgently.
Dugu Bo burst out laughing."Tang San, open your eyes and look carefully. Do I look like someone who's poisoned right now?"
Tang San stared at Dugu Bo's face.
After a short while, he said,"Senior Dugu, your poison is even more severe now. It must be treated immediately, or your life will be in danger at any moment!"
At this moment, Dugu Bo looked terrifying.
Due to the effects of the pill inside his body, his entire face had turned dark green, an eerie and frightening sight.
Even someone like the Master, who knew nothing about poison, could tell that Dugu Bo's condition was extremely abnormal.
When they first arrived, Dugu Bo's complexion hadn't been this frightening. In such a short time, his entire face had turned dark green.
Hearing Tang San's words, Dugu Bo's expression darkened further."With eyesight like yours, you think you're qualified to cure me?"
As he spoke, he kicked Tang San hard in the stomach.
Tang San groaned, feeling as if several of his ribs had broken.
Dugu Bo said viciously,"The reason I let you in was to settle accounts with you."
He then kicked the Master as well, breaking several ribs.
Because of the poison, the skin of both Tang San and the Master gradually turned a bluish-black color.
Tang San felt utter despair.
If the poison wasn't neutralized soon, both he and the Master would die.
Looking at Dugu Bo, who was radiating killing intent, Tang San understood—he was about to die here.
He was unwilling.
This world was far more wonderful than his previous life—far more magical.He hadn't even stood at the peak of this world yet, and now he was going to die here.
At this moment, he truly regretted it—regretted letting greed take over, regretted trying to monopolize the immortal herbs.
Feeling his body growing weaker and weaker, the Master gritted his teeth and said,"Senior Dugu, I admit we were wrong. We apologize to you. For the sake of Clear Sky Douluo, please spare us this once."
"Clear Sky Douluo?" Dugu Bo paused.
After thinking for a moment, he placed his hands on Tang San and the Master, drawing the poison out of their bodies.
"Fine. For Clear Sky Douluo's sake, I'll spare your lives this time. But if you ever provoke me again, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
With that, Dugu Bo grabbed the two of them and threw them out of the reception hall like dead dogs.
"Guards! Send them back to Shrek Academy!"
Two servants immediately rushed over and carried Tang San outside.
"Thank you, Senior Dugu, for sparing our lives!" the Master shouted loudly despite the pain wracking his body.
"Yu Xiaogang, your skin really is thick," Dugu Bo said coldly.
The Master looked awkward.
Looking at Dugu Bo's terrifying face, he hesitated for a moment before saying,"Senior Dugu, if you ever need treatment again, you're welcome to come to Shrek Academy at any time."
Dugu Bo snorted disdainfully, ignored him, and walked straight back to his room to continue refining the pill inside his body.
He hadn't spared Tang San and the Master because he feared Tang Hao.
Now, he already had the confidence to fight Tang Hao head-on and no longer feared him.
He spared them because he genuinely respected Tang Hao.
Back then, Dugu Bo had been hunted by the Spirit Hall, and Tang Hao had severely struck the Spirit Hall. Dugu Bo had always admired him for that.
From the beginning, Dugu Bo hadn't planned to kill Tang San and the Master—he only wanted to teach them a lesson and vent his anger.
What he hadn't expected was for the two of them to be so stubborn, refusing to admit the truth even at death's door.
Dugu Bo also didn't reveal any information about Ao Tian.
The Master and the others had searched for Ao Tian for so long. If Ao Tian wanted to reveal himself, he would have done so already.
So Dugu Bo wisely kept his mouth shut.
After the servants carried Tang San out, they returned to carry out the Master as well. One of them then drove a carriage toward Shrek Academy.
