I'm Writing a Diary in Doupo! The Female Characters are Broken

"Without a Medicinal Pill, how do you plan to do it?" Hai Bodong frowned in confusion.

"With this." Chu Xiao raised the Lei Gang Emperor Flame in his hand: "Old Sir, you never said that I needed to refine a Grade 6 Medicinal Pill with a Heavenly Flame to help you remove the Seal, so from the very beginning, I intended to use another method."

A bewildered expression appeared on Hai Bodong's somewhat fierce face: "I didn't say that?"

Chu Xiao looked at him silently, not speaking.

"Then perhaps I was too excited when I saw the Heavenly Flame." Hai Bodong grinned: "Back to the previous topic, how will you help me remove the Seal, little fellow?"

"Let it enter your body, and I can directly remove the Snake Seal Curse for you." Chu Xiao smiled calmly: "It's very simple."

Hai Bodong immediately sobered his smile, his eyes turning cold: "If that's the case, wouldn't my life be in your hands?"

"That problem is easy to solve." Chu Xiao's smile remained unchanged.

"How to solve it?" Hai Bodong frowned.

He wouldn't easily try anything related to his life.

"Simple." Chu Xiao put away the Heavenly Flame and stood up: "Just let you know that I can kill you at any time, without needing to resort to schemes."

Hai Bodong: ?

"Boy, you're truly boastful." Hai Bodong released the icy Qi from his body: "This old man admits that for your age to have the cultivation of a Great Dou Shi, you are a rare Genius in the Gama Empire, but you're not enough in front of this old man."

"Even if I'm not at my Peak right now, with my Dou Ling cultivation, I'm not afraid of even a Dou King!"

Chu Xiao couldn't be bothered to argue and directly stood up, walking into the spacious backyard.

Hai Bodong hesitated slightly before following, only to see him casually pull out a scale and inject Dou Qi into it.

Before long, the light in the courtyard suddenly dimmed, and Hai Bodong looked up to see a Black-Winged Azure Melt Serpent, shrunk to a few dozen feet in size, descending into the courtyard, prostrating itself to Chu Xiao: "Master."

"This Peak Rank 5 Demonic Beast, do you think it's enough?" Chu Xiao turned to look at Hai Bodong.

Hai Bodong: "..."

"If it's not enough, I can have its former boss chat with you." Chu Xiao grinned.

"Who was its former boss?" Hai Bodong swallowed.

"This snake's former boss was the Tian Du Xie Long Beast, a Rank 6 Demonic Beast." The Black-Winged Azure Melt Serpent voluntarily replied.

Hai Bodong's eyelids twitched, and he showed Chu Xiao a benevolent smile: "There's no need for such trouble, mainly because this old man finds little brother trustworthy and kind-faced."

He was absolutely not cowardly, but rather being sensible, after all, Chu Xiao had the ability to kill him and forcefully take it but didn't, so why resort to schemes?

"I thought you would say you wanted me to call the Tian Du Xie Long Beast to meet you." Chu Xiao teased.

"No need, no need." Hai Bodong made a 'please' gesture: "Little brother, this old man will make a deal with you."

Chu Xiao followed him back into the back room of the shop, then summoned the Lei Gang Emperor Flame.

"Don't resist."

About half an hour later.

"Swish!"

Medusa's figure appeared above Mo City, her gaze falling with a thoughtful expression.

The next moment, an exquisitely beautiful smile appeared on her stunning face,

"This is truly a pillow delivered when one is sleepy."

"This way, I don't need to deliberately find a reason."

As her voice fell, Medusa's figure had already landed on the ground, standing in front of a map shop with simple, low-key decor and tightly closed doors.

She could feel an extreme chill emanating from within the house, covering an area of several dozen feet, perfectly encompassing the shop's location without exceeding it. This was a demonstration of complete control over one's power.

"Hahaha, I didn't expect you could really solve this damned Snake Seal."

"I, Ice Emperor Hai Bodong, am back again."

An increasingly youthful voice came from inside the house.

Medusa could feel that the owner of the icy Qi inside the house possessed Dou Huang strength.

What Chu Xiao wrote in his notebook was indeed not false at all.

"Boy!"

Hai Bodong, who had recovered from an old man to a middle-aged appearance, looked at Chu Xiao, casually taking out several scrolls from his storage ring, and spoke indifferently: "Seeing as you helped this old man recover his strength, I won't hold your previous rudeness against you."

"Leave that incomplete map, take this Fighting Skill and Cultivation Technique, as well as the Pill Formula for a Grade 6 Medicinal Pill, and you can leave!"

"Are you breaking the agreement?" Chu Xiao's expression didn't change at all.

"It's not exactly breaking the agreement, it's just that your help in unsealing me isn't worth the value of this incomplete map." Hai Bodong spoke earnestly: "For this map, I was chased by Medusa across most of the Tagore Desert, and finally, after being Sealed, I was left with only Dou Ling strength, suffering for decades. How can I easily hand it over?"

"I'm not afraid to tell you, the map in your hand is only half of what this old man obtained back then. Even if you take it, it's useless. I advise you to know when to quit."

"Sigh." Chu Xiao let out a long sigh: "I genuinely wanted to make a fair trade with you, but you just wouldn't believe it. Do you think I, who can help you remove the Seal and restore your Dou Huang strength, would be afraid?"

The next moment, Chu Xiao formed a hand Seal and conjured a Heavenly Flame energy curse mark.

Before Hai Bodong could react, he found that his Dou Qi was rapidly disappearing, and in the blink of an eye, it was only at the Great Dou Shi level.

His face instantly turned pale, and he asked: "What did you do to me?"

"Nothing much." Chu Xiao picked up a teacup and took a sip: "I just modified the Snake Seal Curse in your body. Now its command is in my hands, controlled by the Heavenly Flame."

"Before, you could remove it with a Grade 6 Medicinal Pill, but now it will require at least Grade 7."

"And, with a single thought, I can make all your Dou Qi disappear, you know."

Hai Bodong: "..."

"Little, little friend." Hai Bodong forced out a smile uglier than crying: "Do you believe me if I say I was just joking with you?"

"What do you think?" Chu Xiao retorted.

Hai Bodong showed no Killing Intent or malice, truly not wanting to antagonize him, which is why he offered the Cultivation Technique, Fighting Skill, and valuable Grade 6 Pill Formula.

But he also had the intention to test him and wanted to keep the incomplete map, so ultimately, he was waiting for a better price.

"Alright, the Seal Curse I placed on you will automatically dissipate after ten days." Chu Xiao put down the teacup: "Your Excellency Ice Emperor, hand over the remaining half of the incomplete map."

"Of course, of course!" Hai Bodong was extremely cooperative, quickly finding the remaining half of the incomplete map and handing it to Chu Xiao.

The feeling of recovering his Dou Huang strength after so long was too good; he didn't want to revert back.

As for Chu Xiao saying ten days, just listen to it; whoever believes it is a fool.

"Little friend." Looking at Chu Xiao examining the incomplete map, Hai Bodong rubbed his hands with a smile.

Chu Xiao waved his hand, removing the Seal and restoring his strength.

"I, Hai Bodong, am back again, again." Hai Bodong thought to himself.

Confirming the incomplete map was correct, Chu Xiao put it away. This was a trump card for obtaining the Purifying Lotus Demonic Flame later.

Although he had the Lei Gang Emperor Flame, and theoretically wouldn't need to fear the Purifying Lotus Demonic Flame once his strength reached the level to enter the Demonic Flame Plain,

It's always good to have more trump cards.

"Ice Emperor, would you be willing to be my bodyguard for a period of time?" Chu Xiao asked Hai Bodong.

"This." Hai Bodong said with a hint of probing and caution: "This old man has been in seclusion here for too long; I'm afraid many old friends think I'm dead. Now that I've finally recovered my strength, I want to go and catch up with them."

"Is that so." Chu Xiao nodded: "Then I won't force you. I originally wanted to say that an elder in my family could refine a Rejuvenation Purple Pill for you, but never mind then."

Rejuvenation Purple Pill?

Hai Bodong's pupils constricted, and he asked with a fervent tone: "That Rejuvenation Purple Pill that can restore a Cultivator to their strongest physical state?"

At his Peak, he was a Seven-Star Dou Huang, but now, due to being Sealed for too long, he only had the strength of a Three-Star Dou Huang.

If he obtained the Rejuvenation Purple Pill, he could immediately recover.

Because of this Seal, his cultivation had not advanced an inch for decades, and had even regressed.

If he still wanted to explore higher Domains, any amount of time saved was very important.

"Yes." Chu Xiao nodded calmly.

"But then again." Hai Bodong forced out a shy smile: "Having not seen them for decades, they all think I'm dead. Catching up isn't urgent. I'll take this job. How long until I get the Medicinal Pill, little friend?"

"As long as the medicinal ingredients for refining the Medicinal Pill are gathered, it can be done at any time. As for the bodyguard duration, let's set it for two years, how about it?" Chu Xiao asked.

"It's a deal." Hai Bodong immediately agreed.

Afterward, he asked somewhat curiously: "Little friend, your Sealing Skill is truly impressive."

"Of course, my Dao Companion taught me." Chu Xiao nodded.

Medusa outside the house: "..."

What Cai Lin taught in her previous life has nothing to do with me, Medusa, now!?

"Your girlfriend is also quite formidable." Hai Bodong also sighed in his heart.

This young man in front of him was indeed not simple.

Even his choice of Dao Companion was extraordinary, able to teach a Great Dou Shi how to break a Seal Curse left by a Dou Huang.

Even with the use of Heavenly Flame power, it was still terrifying.

"Your Dao Companion shouldn't be an unknown figure, right?" Hai Bodong tried to inquire.

"Well." Chu Xiao was thinking about how to answer.

"Boom!"

The shop door suddenly opened.

A voice that made one's entire body tingle sounded at the doorway: "It seems someone is calling this king."
