Blue Silver Grass Strategy

"Ling boy, it's really difficult to see you——"

In Shanhai Garden, in Ling Yi's courtyard, Dugu Bo stared at Ling Yi with deep eyes, and his tone of voice could not tell whether he was happy or angry.

Dugu Xin, who was standing aside, became anxious upon hearing this and was about to step forward to persuade them, but before he could take a step, he was stopped by the quick-eyed and quick-handed Li Zhishu.

"Brother Shu, my father..." Dugu Xin turned to look at Li Zhishu who was pulling his arm, and wanted to say something with an anxious look on his face.

In response, Li Zhishu did not say anything, but just shook his head at Dugu Xin, then raised his chin and gestured in the direction of Ling Yi and Dugu Bo.

Dugu Xin subconsciously turned his head and looked over there.

Ling Yi was seen standing beside the stone table. He stretched out his hand to the "Ruyi Treasure Bag" on his waist and took out a wine jar the size of a human head and two jade wine bowls.

He broke the red seal on the wine jar and poured three-tenths of the amber-colored mellow wine into two jade wine bowls.

Ling Yi picked up one of the jade white wine bowls, took two steps forward, walked in front of Dugu Bo, bent down slightly, leaned forward, and said solemnly:

"Senior Dugu, thank you for taking care of Blue Silver Collar over the past few years. Ling Yiming is deeply grateful!"

As soon as the voice fell, Ling Yi held the wine bowl with both hands, tilted his head back, and drank all the wine in the bowl.

Listening to Ling Yi's words and watching Ling Yi's actions, Dugu Bo didn't say anything, but the coldness in his eyes became even stronger, and he looked at Ling Yi indifferently.

Ling Yi didn't care about this. He stretched out his left arm, took the wine jar on the stone table, and poured wine into the wine bowl in his right hand again.

It was still seven-tenths full. Putting down the wine jar, Ling Yi once again held the wine bowl with both hands, bowed to Dugu Bo, and thanked him sincerely:

"Senior Dugu, it was Ling Yi who broke the promise and failed to continue waiting for your arrival at 'Blue Silver Territory'. I am deeply ashamed that you have forgiven me!"

After saying this, he drank the wine in the bowl in his hand again.

Seeing this, Dugu Bo narrowed his eyes slightly, and the cold expression on his face thawed slightly.

Then, Ling Yi took the wine jar and poured wine into the bowl in his hand for the third time.

When Ling Yi was about to bend down for the third time, Dugu Bo moved.

With a big step, Dugu Bo walked past Ling Yi who was holding the wine in both hands and came to the stone table. He lowered his head to look at the jade-white wine bowl on the table and the amber wine in the bowl that was as sweet as honey and oil.

He picked it up casually, put it under his nose to sniff it, and then drank it all in one gulp.

Putting down the wine bowl, Dugu Bo did not look at Ling Yi beside him. He just snorted coldly and said, "The wine is good..."

Ling Yi didn't take Dugu Bo's cold words seriously. Instead, he smiled, drank the wine in his hand, and said with a smile:

"As long as you like it, Senior, this is the first batch of 'Blue Silver Rice Fragrance' that I brewed myself five years ago after returning from the [Tian Dou Empire]."

"At that time, the production of Blue Silver Rice was still low, so I only brewed three pots. I was planning to wait for you to come to Blue Silver Territory and drink together."

"Who would have known that times would change and this delay would last until today..."

Having said that, Ling Yi shook his head, with an indescribable look of regret on his handsome face.

After hearing Ling Yi's words, Dugu Bo's head drooped down, and his eyes unconsciously looked at the empty jade wine bowl in his hand.

Still without looking at Ling Yi, Dugu Bo held out the jade wine bowl in front of Ling Yi, tilted his head, and said: "Since it's prepared for me, why don't you fill it up for me!... You drank it first..."

The last sentence was spoken in a very low voice. If Ling Yi had not had extremely sensitive hearing, he would have almost missed it.

A smile flashed in his eyes, and Ling Yi's hands moved quickly. He immediately picked up the wine jar and started pouring wine for Dugu Bo.

The arrogant Dugu Bo reminded Ling Yi of the young lady from the finance department in his previous life. They were equally arrogant, honest, and easy to please...

Of course, unlike the romance deliberately created in his previous life, the jar of "Blue Silver Rice Flower Fragrance" in Ling Yi's hand was actually brewed by him five years ago.

He was indeed planning to have a drink with Dugu Bo when he came to the [Shuimu Principality] to keep his appointment.

There is just one thing. Ling Yi brewed three pots of "Blue Silver Rice Flower Fragrance" at that time. Apart from one pot used to entertain Dugu Bo, the other two pots were for studying with Dugu Bo how to use various poisons and herbs to make medicinal wine.

Who would have known that, because Ling Yi's reputation was too great in the [Shuimu Principality] at that time, some powerful people headed by Grand Duke Mufeng felt that he was an eyesore, and directly issued a transfer order to send him to the battlefield between the [Tiandou Empire] and the [Xingluo Empire].

Therefore, Ling Yi did not think that he was trying to trick Dugu Bo. He was just showing his sincerity instead of keeping it in his heart.

As we all know, sincerity can form a killer move with anything. As long as sincerity is not the only thing, it will be beneficial in most cases, whether it is for men or women.

Coincidentally, Ling Yi's past and present lives are both as good-looking as the readers, and he is not lacking in talent and wisdom, and he has a small amount of money in his pocket that is not worth mentioning...

With all these factors, it is hard for anyone to refuse Ling Yi's sincere kindness.

After a few more bowls of wine, Dugu Bo had already sat down beside the stone table and began to listen quietly to Ling Yi's introduction of his past five years.

Li Zhishu was very considerate. He took out a few side dishes from the medal-shaped storage soul guide that Ling Yi had given him, placed them one by one on the stone table, and pulled Dugu Xin to sit down with him and started drinking the wine.

Today it is Long Yin and Qingqiu Xin's turn to lead people to inspect the territory. Zhang Mufeng follows Zhang Lei to learn how to handle various affairs of the territory. Ling Shan, Zhang Miao and others are practicing hard. A Yin and Yang Xueli ran to the large warehouse to conduct actual combat exercises in the "Yin Yang Bagua Diagram".

Li Zhishu, the chef of Shanhaiyuan, is very leisurely most of the time. The meals are prepared by his two disciples Chen Tianqi and Gao Yanlun and other chefs. He himself takes Dugu Xin, who is on his turn to rest, to chat with Ling Yi.

Who knew that it would be such a coincidence that Dugu Bo just happened to return and brought him to Ling Yi's courtyard.

"...So, you won't be going out again in the short term?"

Dugu Bo put down the wine bowl and let Ling Yi pour wine for him. He picked up a crispy peanut with salt on it and put it into his mouth, asking while chewing.

"That should be it." Ling Yi put down the empty wine jar, took out a jar of "Blue Silver Rice Flower Fragrance" from the "Ruyi Treasure Bag", and said: "My strength is still too weak. I plan to practice hard at home. When I am stronger, I will go out and travel around the mainland..."

“Senior, could you stay a little longer this time?

It’s been a long time since we last met, and Ling Yi has accumulated a lot of ideas about the combination of various herbs in his mind, and he wants to discuss them with the seniors——"

Facing Ling Yi's invitation, Dugu Bo paused as he had just picked up the wine bowl, a hint of hesitation appearing on his face.

Seeing this, Ling Yi was a little curious: "Senior?"

"Ling boy~" Dugu Bo put down the wine bowl and said, "I'm not trying to shirk my responsibility. I came here this time to take Xin'er away from here and go to the capital of the [Tiandou Empire], 'Tiandou City'."

"what?!"

Before Ling Yi could say anything, Dugu Xin stood up immediately after hearing this, looked at Dugu Bo, and asked, "Dad, I'm staying well here, why do you suddenly want to take me to Tiandou City?"

I will continue to write. The next chapter will be published after midnight and before 1 o'clock.

Chapter 254: Strength Improvement

After five years, Dugu Bo's appearance has not changed much. He is still tall and thin, and he looks like an ancient pine tree when sitting there.

His inky black hair was casually draped behind his head, his eyes were dark green under his sharp brows, and when he frowned, he gave people a cold and stern feeling.

Of course, in front of his son Dugu Xin, although Dugu Bo had a stern face, his expression was relatively gentle. He said seriously but gently:

"Your boy stays here every day. Although he is not slow in cultivating his soul power and can gain some combat experience by competing with Long Yin and the others, after all, he has not experienced a real life-and-death fight and lacks some training..."

“How could that be!” Dugu Xin was immediately dissatisfied when he heard this: “Before, I went to the Soul Beast Forest with Brother Shu and Brother Yin to hunt soul beasts. How can you say that I have never experienced a real life-and-death fight?!”

"Um?!"

Dugu Bo's face darkened, and he looked at Dugu Xin with his eyes threateningly, and said in a deep voice with a sense of oppression: "What? What I said doesn't work now, right?"

"That's right~" Dugu Xin muttered softly.

"you……!"

Dugu Bo raised his eyebrows and was about to say something else.

"OK OK--"

Ling Yi spoke at the right time, poured a bowl of wine for each of the father and son, and said in a gentle voice: "Senior, Xiao Xin, please give me some face and stop arguing for now——"

"Humph!"

Dugu Bo snorted coldly and glared at his son Dugu Xin with a pair of dark green eyes that could normally scare a child to tears.

Who would have known that Dugu Xin didn't even look at his father. Instead, he tilted his head and looked at the lotus pond on the other side of the courtyard, where the red, white and pink lotus flowers were standing tall and graceful.

Seeing this, Dugu Bo suddenly felt a little embarrassed. He wanted to give his son, who seemed to have entered a rebellious period, a loving punch, but he was worried that doing so in front of Ling Yi and Li Zhishu would hurt his son's self-esteem.

For a moment, Dugu Bo's face turned blue and red, and he felt a little uncomfortable.

The sixteen-year-old Dugu Xin is no longer the little boy who obeyed his father’s words and often looked at him with admiration when he was twelve years old four years ago.

"Senior, I haven't seen you for five years. I wonder how much you have improved now?"

Ling Yi spoke again, changing the subject.

I still remember that five years ago, in the 2607th year of the Douluo calendar, when we first met in the "Shabak City" of the [Tiandou Empire], the 41-year-old Dugu Bo was a 62nd level Soul Emperor.

Now, five years have passed. What level is 46-year-old Dugu Bo now?

You know, in Douluo Continent, the soul master's training becomes more and more difficult as time goes by.

Generally speaking, as long as one has decent aptitude, before level 30, the speed of cultivation may be fast or slow, but it is only a matter of time. With the perseverance of perseverance, one can reach level 29.

If one's innate soul power reaches level seven or above, they can basically cultivate to the great soul master level around the age of twelve. If they are diligent or have good family conditions, they can even cultivate to level twenty-five or above.

And this is also one of the admission criteria of [Shrek Academy] in the original book.

In other words, Shrek Academy only accepts geniuses!

If you are not a genius, you can't even pass the entrance exam.

As for the name "Monster", Ling Yi suspected that it was just to be different and to show that his students were not ordinary geniuses.

If one really had to use words like "monster" or "evil spirit" to describe his qualifications, Ling Yi, who was familiar with online literature, felt that without an innate level 20 soul power, twin martial souls, a thousand-year first soul ring, or a ten-thousand-year fourth soul ring, and without having reached the Soul King realm by the age of twelve, he should not be worthy of these labels on the Douluo Continent.

After all, according to what Yu Xiaogang said when he first met Tang San in the original book, in the past hundred years, [Tiandou Empire] and [Xingluo Empire] have produced two twin martial spirits and nineteen with innate full spirit power.

Not to mention the two people with twin martial souls, just talking about the nineteen people with innate full soul power, fourteen of them have powerful martial souls inherited from their family bloodline, while the other five are exceptions, who were born ordinary and their martial souls are mutated.

If such a person is labeled as a "monster" or "evildoer", it is acceptable. However, if a person with innate level 7 or 8 soul power is also labeled as such after entering Shrek Academy, it seems that the terms "monster" and "evildoer" are too cheap.

Just like when Dai Mubai entered Shrek Academy, he was at level 25, Ning Rongrong was at level 26, Zhu Zhuqing was at level 27, and Tang San and Xiao Wu were at level 29.

With such talent, compared to Hu Liena who was a Soul Master at the age of fifteen, Dai Mubai who broke through to level thirty at the age of thirteen and reached level thirty-seven at the age of fifteen, can they really be the same? ?

In addition, Oscar, who was born with full soul power, broke through to level 30 at the age of fourteen.

Moreover, it is estimated that Oscar was not counted among the 19 innate full soul powers mentioned by Yu Xiaogang earlier. After all, Oscar was probably not born when Yu Xiaogang left the [Spirit Hall].

Pulling away, get back to business.

The training of a soul master is relatively easy before reaching level 30. For those with high qualifications and suitable external conditions, it is not unbelievable to improve three or four levels in a year.

But if one can maintain this speed of upgrading after reaching Soul Master, then he is a true genius.

After reaching level 50, those who can improve by two levels every year are basically those with innate soul power level nine, or even those with innate full soul power.

Just like Tang Hao, he became a Soul Master at the age of fifteen, a Soul King at the age of nineteen, and a Soul Emperor at the age of twenty-four.

Among these, in addition to the high-level spirit rings that reached level ten every time, the inherited spirit bone of the [Haotian Sect] obtained when he was twenty years old also played a significant role in increasing his strength.

The above information came from Yang Xueli. Before returning to Longxing City, she got a lot of information from her parents that the Haotian Sect and its affiliated forces had never concealed, or even intended to publicize.

Through the information about Lou Gao, Ming Qi, and even many characters in the original novel, Ling Yi knows that after an average soul master reaches level 70, it may not be able to advance to the next level for several years. This shows the difficulty of cultivation in the later stages.

But when Dugu Bo met Tang San in the 2644th year of the Douluo calendar, he said that he was 78 years old. Later he mentioned that after he broke through to the Titled Douluo, his spirit power had not been improved for ten years. It was obvious that he achieved the Titled Douluo at the age of 68.

It is now the 2612th year of the Douluo calendar. Dugu Bo is forty-six years old, and there are still twenty-two years before he turns sixty-eight in the 2634th year of the Douluo calendar.

Through the perception of breath, Ling Yi determined that Dugu Bo's strength should be in the same realm as Lou Gao, that is, the Soul Emperor realm below level 70.

Ling Yi had learned about Dugu Bo's qualifications before, and they were the same as Dugu Xin's, with an innate soul power of level seven.

How did Dugu Bo, who was still stuck in the Soul Emperor realm, cross the levels from Soul Emperor to Soul Sage, and the twenty levels between Soul Sage and Titled Douluo in just twenty-two years?

Also, Dugu Bo just said that he wanted to take Dugu Xin to the capital of the [Tiandou Empire], ‘Tiandou City’?

We’ve already reached Tiandou City, so is Sunset Forest far away?

It seems to be only about a hundred miles.

Ling Yi, who was pouring wine, lowered his eyes, his gaze was deep, his thoughts surged in his mind, and flew towards the red and white "Double-Headed Pot".

Everyone should know what a shabu-shabu hotpot is, right?

Without further ado, we will continue tomorrow night. Good night everyone (*^▽^*)

"I am currently at level 69. I broke through two months ago."
