Douluo Dalu: My System Is Dissatisfied

Chapter 110: Ye Feng Comes Up with Another Bad Idea

"Old Poison, if you're interested, you can give it a try. That kind of sour, spicy, and refreshing feeling only happens once in a lifetime."

"Little monster, listen to yourself. If I wanted to get stronger, I'd never resort to something like that. I'm just curious—can castrating yourself really make someone stronger?"

"Of course. Spirit power attributes are divided into wind, fire, water, earth, thunder, darkness, light, and others. But in my opinion, there's also a division between yin and yang. The same applies to martial spirits. Chrysanthemum Douluo's martial spirit is yin, while men are yang and women are yin. As a man, he's inherently yang. The mismatch between his martial spirit and his natural attribute is limiting his potential. If he has the guts to castrate himself and turn yang into yin, it would harmonize with his martial spirit. His combat effectiveness would definitely improve. Of course, how much stronger he becomes depends on his own luck." Ye Feng explained his martial spirit yin-yang theory in detail.

"So… he might actually become stronger?" Dugu Bo frowned, his expression turning serious.

Under Ye Feng's guidance, Dugu Bo's poison had become deadlier, and his combat power had increased. But even with those improvements, he still wasn't strong enough to overcome the three-level gap between him and Chrysanthemum Douluo.

If the Spirit Hall couldn't recruit a powerful spirit master, their usual method was to eliminate them. Dugu Bo refused to join them because he didn't want to be controlled, and as a result, Chrysanthemum Douluo had been hunting him down.

If Chrysanthemum Douluo became even stronger thanks to Ye Feng, this wouldn't just be bad—it could be deadly. Dugu Bo couldn't help but feel anxious.

Ye Feng noticed his worry, patted him on the shoulder, and reassured him, "Old Poison, don't stress about it. That method requires Chrysanthemum Douluo to actually have the balls to do it—well, before he cuts them off, anyway. Here, take this."

Ye Feng pulled a pistol from his storage ring and handed it to Dugu Bo, along with thirty bullets.

"What the hell is this?" Dugu Bo asked curiously.

"This is the weapon I used to wound Chrysanthemum Douluo. It's strong enough to be a real threat to spirit masters below the Spirit King level. Even a Titled Douluo would be in danger if they weren't prepared."

"A pistol?"

"Yeah. With this, you'll have a trump card the next time you go up against Chrysanthemum Douluo."

"Alright." Dugu Bo nodded and accepted the weapon without hesitation.

"Grandpa, should we head back to Heaven Dou City?" Dugu Yan asked.

"Yeah." Dugu Bo nodded, then turned to Ye Feng. "Little monster, you saved my life just now. Got time to come to the city with me?"

"No need," Ye Feng said, shaking his head. He glanced at Yu Tianheng before whispering, "Old Poison, come with me for a second."

Dugu Bo followed him into the forest. Once they were far enough that Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan couldn't hear, Ye Feng stopped.

"Old Poison, what do you think of Yu Tianheng?"

"He's talented and good-looking, but he can't compare to you. If you're interested in Yanyan, I could help bring you two together," Dugu Bo said with a wicked grin. It was half a joke, but also half serious—if Ye Feng wanted to be his grandson-in-law, he'd support it.

"I'm asking about his character."

"His character? As long as Yanyan likes him, that's what matters."

"Old Poison, I don't want to say too much, but you know that Yu Tianheng is part of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect's third generation. He and Yu Tianxin are both competing for the position of sect master. Yu Tianxin stayed at Thunder Academy, where he has a strong support base within the sect. Meanwhile, Yu Tianheng joined Heaven Dou Royal Academy and focused on building connections outside the sect, especially among Heaven Dou Empire's nobles."

Ye Feng stopped there, letting Dugu Bo piece things together.

"Little monster, are you saying Yu Tianheng approached Yanyan with ulterior motives?"

"We can't rule it out."

"Yeah… I've had similar suspicions. Yu Tianheng being close to Yanyan is probably because of me. He wants to use my influence—and Prince Xuexing's—to secure his position as sect master. I won't lie to you, I know my granddaughter's personality. She has a bit of a temper, and yet, Yu Tianheng never loses his patience. That kid isn't like you. You're bad, but at least you own it. Yu Tianheng gives me the feeling that he's acting. It doesn't feel genuine."

"Old man, what the hell do you mean, calling me bad?" Ye Feng laughed, glaring at him.

"You've got four women chasing after you, and you still want to act innocent?" Dugu Bo smirked enviously. "Even that dragon lady, Liu Erlong, fell for you. I have to admit, kid, you're impressive."

"You call that bad? That's called skill." Ye Feng grinned shamelessly.

"Alright, little monster, you didn't just call me here to talk about this, right?"

"Of course not."

"What's your plan? As long as it doesn't hurt Yanyan, I'll consider it."

"The plan is simple—you need to disappear for a while."

"Disappear?" Dugu Bo frowned.

"If you disappear for a while and Prince Xuexing stops showing interest in Dugu Yan, but Yu Tianheng still stays with her, then it means he genuinely cares about her. But if Yu Tianheng suddenly starts acting differently—becomes distant or even breaks up with her—it means he never truly cared about her."

Ye Feng was determined to shake things up. By disrupting the original storyline, he could earn more attribute points as a reward. With the coming war looming, he needed every bit of strength he could get before the big showdown.

"Is this really a good idea? If we test him like this and he finds out, he'll definitely be pissed."

"Just give it a shot. There's no downside. This stays between you and me. If we don't tell anyone, how would anyone know? As long as we make it convincing, there won't be a problem."

"Fine."

Dugu Bo agreed to Ye Feng's plan and decided to think through the details when he got back. He was old, and the person he cared about most was his granddaughter. He needed to know if Yu Tianheng was sincere.

With that settled, Dugu Yan, Dugu Bo, and Yu Tianheng headed into Heaven Dou City, while Ye Feng, Xiao Wu, Ning Rongrong, and Liu Erlong continued back to Shrek Academy.

"Brother, your shot caught Chrysanthemum Douluo off guard. Why didn't you just kill him?"

"Even a mad dog has an owner. Chrysanthemum Douluo is a high-ranking elder of Spirit Hall and one of Bibi Dong's trusted men. Spirit Hall has been looking for an excuse to go after the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, and the Clear Sky Sect. If I killed him, that would give them the perfect excuse. Right now, I'm not strong enough to protect the people around me from that kind of trouble."
