Chapter 488: Yang Guo Arrives! Huang Rong’s Proposal
The task has been completed.
However, Little Dragon Girl and he were both poisoned by the toxic miasma of the Love Flower.
Ding Ling’s medical skills were unparalleled at the time.
Now his medical expertise is a fusion of the essences from several worlds!
Along with the Medicine King Breathing Technique, Medical Saint Breathing Technique, Qingnang Scripture, and other aids.
Knowing that the Poisonous Plant could detoxify, Ding Ling took merely three days to create the Heartless Pill, perfectly dissolving the poison affecting both himself and Little Dragon Girl.
With the Heartless Pill.
Ding Ling gave the pill formula to Little Dragon Girl for future emergencies.
As for why the Love Flower has toxic miasma?
It should be asked of the Ascenders and player groups. These people meddle in the Valley of Heartless, creating the Heavy Rain Pear Blossom Needle, and naturally, using the abundant Love Flowers to craft some toxic miasmas and poison smoke follows logically.
...
[Congratulations Player Ding Ling, you have completed all tasks on the Path of the Glory War God!]
[Task over-achieved! Would you like to redeem the Glory Medal now? Proceed to a higher-level Martial Hero Plane World?]
Ding Ling looked at the character panel.
He thought for a moment.
Yet still did not click confirm.
Because the Dragon Elephant Wisdom Skill was not yet in hand!
This Esoteric Sect is indeed representative of obstinate bravery, not only ignoring Huang Rong’s commands but also directly beheading the Dynasty Envoy sent there, such daring; who knows what they rely upon?
"If Hoduo and Yuwen Chengdu can’t handle it, I’ll personally make a trip to the Esoteric Sect."
Ding Ling stood with hands behind his back, glanced toward the West, then turned around to accompany Little Dragon Girl.
Little Dragon Girl has the Cold Jade Bed, Great Medicine, Pusique Snake’s snake gall, and other aids.
With Ding Ling as a Grandmaster to guide her.
She, naturally gifted and single-minded, progressed smoothly in her cultivation.
Ding Ling, seeing Little Dragon Girl’s continuous progress and growth, felt quite gratified in his heart.
On this day.
Someone reported that Yang Guo had arrived.
Ding Ling rejoiced inwardly and asked for Yang Guo to be brought in.
Yang Guo was subsequently led to meet Ding Ling and Little Dragon Girl.
His expression was dazed, and upon seeing Little Dragon Girl and Ding Ling, he appeared stunned and disbelief.
"Is this true?!"
"What?"
Ding Ling asked with a smile.
It’s been a long time since seeing Yang Guo.
Upon seeing him again.
Ding Ling noticed he had matured quite a bit and his powers had deepened considerably.
Presumably, he’s undergone some extraordinary encounters.
"D-Ding Ling, y-you really became the First-Rank Prince of the Great Ming Dynasty?! And was titled as King of Qi?!"
Yang Guo’s mouth gaped, his eyes and face etched with shock:
"My Uncle Guo could ascend to the Emperor’s Seat, also because of you?!"
"You already have the answer in your heart, don’t you?"
Ding Ling replied, smiling.
"Moreover..."
Yang Guo swallowed hard:
"You and Aunt..."
"Indeed."
Little Dragon Girl interrupted Yang Guo, nodding:
"Guo’Er, you really came at the right time. I promised Granny Sun to take good care of you for a lifetime. From now on, stay in the Prince’s Mansion, don’t go anywhere else. Focus on cultivating martial arts and techniques. Someday with skills achieved, equipped to protect yourself, both your uncle and I will be at ease."
"Uncle..."
Yang Guo’s teeth showed as he grinned, viewing Ding Ling as a hero idol, suddenly realizing the idol had become a relative, such a fiercely emotional tide was to be expected, but quickly followed by sheer joy, excitement, and elation.
Having a hero idol become a relative!
What could be more joyous than that?!
Yang Guo was no exception.
He suppressed the joy in his heart and began exchanging conversations with Little Dragon Girl and Ding Ling.
After mutual exchange of information.
Though Yang Guo had long learned the general conditions from the mouths of various martial arts heroes, upon receiving the detailed specifics from Little Dragon Girl, with her face filled with pride and honor, he was still significantly shaken.
"Uncle, Uncle really single-handedly overturned the Mongol Kingdom?!"
"Naturally, it’s true."
Little Dragon Girl’s gaze was full of love as she looked at Ding Ling, and when speaking to Yang Guo, there was a touch of pride and more joy and honor:
"Your Uncle is unrivaled in the world, incomparable by anyone. Him achieving it isn’t surprising at all."
"..."
Yang Guo was rendered speechless, looking to the heavens.
To have achieved such a defiant feat yet still considered not surprising?!
As expected of his ever serene Aunt!
"Did you know your godfather nearly harmed your Aunt?"
Ding Ling said calmly:
"I hope a similar incident won’t happen next time, otherwise, I won’t be lenient!"
Yang Guo still feeling fear, hurriedly apologized, saying his godfather Ouyang Feng was mad and lost in mind, not to be bothered with a crazed elder.
Ding Ling remained silent.
Little Dragon Girl was someone easy to talk to. Upon hearing Yang Guo say this, she immediately said to let the matter drop.
Yang Guo heaved a sigh of relief, but seeing Ding Ling’s silence, his heart couldn’t help but skip a beat. He immediately raised his hand to swear that if such a thing happened again, he would never forgive himself! Without needing Uncle to say anything, he would punish himself! Or even perish together with the one who harmed Aunt!
"Perishing together is not necessary."
Ding Ling gave Yang Guo a deep look, rose to his full height, and said:
"Your aunt promised Granny Sun to take good care of you for a lifetime. You don’t want your aunt to break her promise, do you? Train well, don’t run around. In addition..."
Ding Ling took out three secret manuals and gave them to Yang Guo:
"Here are two top-level breathing techniques, one internal and one external. There’s also the Nine Yin Scripture. Once you learn them, you’ll be able to surpass your godfather. Learn well, ask me if you don’t understand. I’ll be staying at the Prince’s Mansion for a while, but later it might not be certain."
Ding Ling admired Yang Guo’s character.
Moreover, since he was Little Dragon Girl’s disciple, he was essentially Ding Ling’s disciple, so teaching some widely known breathing techniques and the Nine Yin Scripture wasn’t a big deal.
"Yes. Thank you, Uncle."
Yang Guo was a smart person, quick to change his address appropriately.
And subsequently, he also showed Ding Ling the prowess of a genius.
Yang Guo was indeed a martial arts genius, grasping concepts immediately, learning quickly!
The fact that he could create such a top-tier palm technique like Desolate Soul-Devouring Palm showed this clearly.
Like Ding Ling?
He couldn’t create such things.
He himself felt lacking in creativity in this area.
But creating martial arts relates to wisdom, talent, bone structure, comprehension, among other factors.
Ding Ling happened to be mediocre in all these aspects.
What could he do?
He could only continue using cheats!
Among billions in the world, true martial arts geniuses are one in ten thousand, even one in a hundred thousand or a million!
Ding Ling was an ordinary member of the common crowd, as normal as could be.
But he was luckier than others.
He had the Divine Skill Automatic Full Level cheat!
Perhaps because both Yang Guo and Little Dragon Girl were geniuses, Ding Ling’s role as a ’teacher’ instructing them was also very relaxed.
Moreover, the Prince’s Mansion was not short of Great Medicine, Snake Gall from Pusique Snake, and so on.
Both Yang Guo and Little Dragon Girl progressed by leaps and bounds.
On this day.
News came from the Imperial Palace.
Guo Xiang’s hundred-day banquet had arrived.
Ding Ling was invited to attend.
He went together with Little Dragon Girl and Yang Guo.
Because this hundred-day banquet was a family gathering.
So although many people were invited, they were all close ones.
Guo Jing and Huang Rong, rarely putting aside their imperial demeanor, relaxed and chatted with Little Dragon Girl and Ding Ling.
Talking about Yang Guo and Guo Fu.
The Guo Jing couple still wished to make a match between the two.
Ding Ling glanced at Yang Guo and Guo Fu, seeing them exchange glances, his eye twitched but he said nothing.
Before he traveled through time.
He had read many online comments.
Many netizens said Little Dragon Girl died, with reasons of all sorts. And the reason Guo Xiang couldn’t find Yang Guo was probably because Yang Guo married Guo Fu, so he deliberately hid from Guo Xiang.
Otherwise, there’s no reason not to meet this little sister, one meeting wouldn’t be fatal.
But avoiding.
Probably Guo Fu didn’t want to or was embarrassed to face Guo Xiang, knowing her sister loved Yang Guo deeply, yet snatched him away herself. How could she face Guo Xiang like this?
As for the specifics of reality?
Ding Ling was not sure, after all, these were just netizens’ speculations.
He just observed that after the two exchanged glances, they both snorted, involuntarily looked at him, feeling peculiar, thinking: Why are you looking at me? Looking at me, I can’t decide either.
Thinking this, Ding Ling then said:
"Let Guo Fu and Yang Guo handle this themselves. If they have no problem, I have no problem either."
Da and Xiao Wu also came.
Upon hearing this, they looked bitter.
After exchanging a glance, the brothers began pouring drinks for each other, drinking in silence.
Guo Fu was extremely conflicted in her heart, unknowingly having the shadow of Ding Ling there, especially as the Prince’s Mansion wasn’t far from where she lived, although Ding Ling was reclusive, she often visited with her mother, Huang Rong, so they met quite frequently.
Seeing much of Ding Ling’s overbearing aura and stature.
Hearing much of Ding Ling’s heroic deeds.
Moreover, Ding Ling particularly showed no color to her, treating her very differently from others.
Guo Fu’s girlish heart became increasingly strange and defiant.
In the past, others always pampered her, accommodated her, cherished her, loved her...
Ding Ling was the only one who didn’t indulge her, even ignored her.
A girl’s emotions are always poetic.
After repeatedly being impacted by Ding Ling’s actions, naturally, a shadow of Ding Ling occupied a corner of the girl’s heart.
But as for love?
Not necessarily.
Like?
Perhaps not even?
Guo Fu couldn’t understand herself, she just compared Ding Ling and Yang Guo after hearing her parents and Ding Ling’s remarks.
Instantly feeling that the extraordinary Yang Guo was far inferior to Ding Ling in every aspect.
