When Tang San returned this time, he would also bring back Dugu Bo, and that old guy would become a mere guest elder of Shrek Academy.
Lin Ye thought of his plan. When Tang San distributed the Immortal Herbs to Shrek, he would definitely avoid Dugu Bo, because the effect of the Immortal Herbs was too good, and Dugu Bo would inevitably feel unbalanced if he knew about it.
"These were all my things originally, but you took them all and didn't give me any benefits." Anyone would be uncomfortable with this.
Without Dugu Bo present, Lin Ye's success rate in snatching the Immortal Herbs was very high.
But he might not be able to leave safely, and perhaps he would be caught and brought back before he ran far.
Even if he wasn't caught, Dugu Bo might use his influence to have Prince Xue Xing dispatch troops to blockade Heaven Dou City.
Thinking of this, Lin Ye felt a little uneasy. Dugu Bo was a big threat.
Therefore, it was necessary to find a way to get Dugu Bo out of the way.
And the only one who could influence Dugu Bo was his beloved granddaughter.
After pondering for a moment, Lin Ye turned and left.
Half an hour later, Lin Ye appeared outside a grand mansion.
The vermilion gate, three meters high, had a strong sense of age and was already covered in some dust, as if it hadn't been cleaned in a long time.
This was the Lin family's old residence in the inner city, uninhabited for many years, but the location was excellent. They just hadn't been willing to sell it to keep a memory.
Scanning around and seeing no one paying attention, Lin Ye scaled the wall and entered. After entering the courtyard, Lin Ye went directly to a room piled with Sundries.
Following the vague memory in his mind, he reached out and pressed a few spots on the blue brick wall.
Rumble!
With a muffled sound, a stone slab on the ground moved, stirring up a cloud of dust.
After the movement stopped, a hole appeared on the ground, and behind the hole was a row of slanted steps leading downwards.
This scene was like a secret room from some TV series.
And in fact, this was indeed a secret room.
The Lin family's ancestors built this secret room for emergency shelter, to prevent unforeseen events.
One could only say that the more powerful people were, the more they feared death.
Zhu Zhuqing, possessed by Lin Ye, silently entered the secret room. When she came out again, she was no longer Zhu Zhuqing, but the real Lin Ye.
…
"Lingling, what do you think of this one? I feel like it really suits me."
Inside a clothing store in Heaven Dou City, in front of a large full-length mirror, Dugu Yan was holding a dress and gesturing with it against herself.
She had short, dark purple hair, looking very spirited. She wasn't exceptionally beautiful, but she possessed a captivating, exotic charm.
Her pair of green eyes were very peculiar, giving off a somewhat eerie feeling.
Behind her was Ye Lingling, her face obscured by black gauze, appearing somewhat reclusive.
They were the only two girls in the Royal Fighting Team, so their relationship was naturally closer.
Soon after, the two girls walked out of the shop. Dugu Yan pretended to glance back casually, but when she turned her head, her face was already filled with impatience.
Shopping was originally a very pleasant thing, but it was different if one was being followed.
"Lingling, there's an annoying fly behind us. Follow me."
Dugu Yan pulled Ye Lingling towards a small path, and after several turns, they arrived at a dead end.
There was no way forward. Dugu Yan turned around at this point, facing the alley entrance, and said, "You've been following for so long, aren't you going to show yourself?"
Her tone carried a hint of mockery, indicating Dugu Yan's full confidence.
And just as her voice fell, an ordinary-looking middle-aged man appeared at the alley entrance.
"Hehe, my beautiful lady, you seem very confident, don't you?"
The middle-aged man's lecherous eyes swept back and forth over Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling, even making a swallowing motion.
As he walked leisurely, a white and a yellow spirit ring slowly floated up from beneath his feet, bringing with them a sense of oppression.
Dugu Yan looked at the man's pretentious demeanor, then at those two trashy spirit rings, and a sneer appeared on her lips. She thought to herself, "Overestimating himself."
Ye Lingling also felt much more at ease now. A two-ring Spirit Grandmaster posed no threat to Yanzi.
At this moment, Dugu Yan also released her Spirit. A rhombus-shaped green scale appeared between her eyebrows, her green eyes became exceptionally sharp, and her cold aura showed no human emotion, like a deadly venomous snake.
Below her waist, there were no legs, but a thick snake tail that swayed back and forth.
Furthermore, four spirit rings floated around her body: two yellow and two purple. Dugu Yan was, astonishingly, a four-ring Spirit Ancestor.
On the opposite side, the middle-aged man's face turned green upon seeing this, his expression stiff.
"Miss, this is a misunderstanding. Please listen to my sophistry—no, please listen to my explanation…"
The middle-aged man's voice trembled slightly, and he looked at Dugu Yan with fear, slowly retreating.
Dugu Yan was too lazy to waste words with such a person. She spat out a thick cloud of purple poisonous mist from her mouth, which spread through the air towards the middle-aged man.
Third Spirit Ability, Jade Phosphor Purple Poison.
As soon as Dugu Yan made her move, she went all out.
The middle-aged man had already lost the courage to resist when he saw Dugu Yan's four spirit rings. Now, seeing the woman make a move, he immediately turned and ran away.
However, before he had run far, a trace of purple poisonous mist was inadvertently inhaled into his nose.
In Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling's line of sight, the middle-aged man rolled his eyes, fell limply to the ground, foamed at the mouth, and his face turned purple.
"Tsk, pervert. With such pathetic skills, you still want to assault women? Today, I, your granny, will act on behalf of Heaven and confiscate your tools of crime."
Dugu Yan squatted down, looking at the middle-aged man with disdain.
Immediately after, she pulled out a dagger and stabbed it directly between the middle-aged man's legs.
With a shriek like a pig being slaughtered, Dugu Yan not only physically castrated the middle-aged man but also confiscated his tools of crime.
Ye Lingling, standing by, was already stunned. This was too ruthless, wasn't it?
"Hmph, let's see if you still think about harming girls in the future!"
After doing all this, Dugu Yan finally vented her anger and turned to Ye Lingling.
"Yanzi, watch out behind you!" Ye Lingling's face suddenly showed a look of horror.
At the same time, Dugu Yan's hair stood on end, and her back felt as if a cold wind had swept over it, chilling her to the bone.
In Ye Lingling's line of sight, a cloud of black smoke drilled into Dugu Yan's body, and then Dugu Yan immediately stood frozen in place, as if petrified.
This scene lasted for about three breaths. Dugu Yan finally regained her movement, but then Ye Lingling heard Dugu Yan muttering to herself, "Hehehe, little sister, you're a bit too confident, aren't you!"
Ye Lingling's movement to approach Dugu Yan stopped. She also realized that something was wrong with Dugu Yan now. Who was she talking to just now?
Then she saw her best friend say to her, "Go back and tell those three old farts at Heaven Dou Royal Academy to pass a message to Dugu Bo: I'll take care of his granddaughter for a while. Hehehe…"
