"Aunt Erlong".
Ma Hongjun nodded and gave Liu Erlong a faint smile.
In Liu Erlong's eyes, this child was well-behaved no matter how you looked at him.
"Brother Hongjun, let's go."
Ning Rongrong held Ma Hongjun's arm tightly and glanced sideways at Dugu Bo.
With the Poison Douluo here, she was worried about Hong Jun's safety.
"Rongrong, thank you for bringing people to rescue me this time. However, I still have some matters to attend to with Senior Dugu."
"Teacher, Boss Dai, Zhu Qing, Rong Rong, you can go back first. I'll come find you as soon as I've finished dealing with this."
Ma Hongjun looked at the group with a serious expression.
"I'm a little worried about you being here. Why don't I stay and keep you company?"
Flanders was somewhat worried.
He didn't trust Dugu Bo; the man was unpredictable, and if Hong Jun angered him, they might not have a second chance to save him.
"I'm telling you, kid, I, Dugu Bo, have lived an upright and honorable life. If I say I won't kill him, I absolutely won't."
Dugu Bo snorted coldly.
"Brother Hongjun, I think the dean is right."
Ning Rongrong gripped Ma Hongjun's hand even tighter.
Dugu Bo's previous act of kidnapping Ma Hongjun had completely terrified her.
She now has a great deal of distrust towards Dugu Bo.
"Okay, Rongrong, teachers, don't worry, I'll be fine."
"I really do have something to do."
Ma Hongjun patted Ning Rongrong's head, his expression relaxed, showing no sign of strain.
"Boss Fu, I think this kid has his own plans, so don't worry about it."
Liu Erlong noticed the struggle on Flander's face and teased him with a smile.
far away,
Gu Yuena, Oscar, and Xiao Wu slowly approached.
"I wonder how Fatty is doing now."
Oscar looked worried and could only pin his hopes on his companions who had gone back to fetch help.
Xiao Wu frowned, and the further she went, the more flustered she became.
She had already sensed several terrifying auras; those were definitely at the level of Title Douluo.
Clenching her fists, Xiao Wu glanced at the calm silver-haired girl beside her and relaxed slightly.
She had some guesses about Gu Yuena's identity, but she wasn't sure which place those guesses involved.
Nearby, Gu Yuena seemed to sense something as she stepped into the forest. Her purple eyes flickered as she looked up into the distance.
Oscar and Xiao Wu were both oblivious to the girl's change, preoccupied with their journey.
Oscar was delighted to see the crowd ahead.
"Fatty, are you alright!"
Oscar immediately rushed forward and slapped Ma Hongjun on the shoulder.
Ma Hongjun didn't expect the three of them to come over as well.
"Why are you here?"
Thinking of Xiao Wu, the red-haired boy looked into the distance.
The girl with the scorpion braid stood not far away, not approaching, her face pale, but her eyes still showing worry.
The two looked at each other, and the girl with the scorpion braid immediately understood what the boy meant. Her face flushed slightly, and she lowered her head shyly.
Gu Yuena walked straight to Ma Hongjun's side, but her gaze fell on the back of the group.
"In case something happens, as a team, we will never abandon our teammates."
Oscar patted his chest forcefully.
"Alright, I'm really fine here, teacher. You can take them all back first!"
Ma Hongjun looked at Flander with a serious expression in his eyes.
Flanders knew that his apprentice was quite capable, and hesitated for a few seconds.
"Once your matter is resolved, come directly to Blue Tyrant Academy to find us."
He gave a brief explanation and then led everyone away.
"I want to stay."
Gu Yuena spoke, her voice clear and cold, yet carrying an undeniable air of authority.
"Hongjun will be fine, he doesn't need to be here..."
Flanders opened his mouth, but before he could finish speaking...
The girl had already walked away from the group.
Looking at the direction the girl was heading, Ma Hongjun's eyes flickered twice.
"It's alright, teacher, you can take the people back."
Ma Hongjun guessed that Gu Yuena must have discovered something.
Flanders had no choice but to nod.
"Brother Hongjun, come back soon."
Before leaving, Ning Rongrong was reluctant to part, and her hand lingered on hers.
"Girls grow up and leave home, little princess, let's go quickly, this boy will be alright."
Bone Douluo sighed, then looked at Ning Rongrong with a smile.
Where was the terrifying aura he had just exuded?
Being teased by her elders, Ning Rongrong withdrew her hand in embarrassment and playfully stuck out her tongue.
She jumped next to Bone Douluo and started acting cute.
"Grandpa Bone, I don't have any."
The group left quickly.
Dugu Bo finally let out a heavy sigh of relief.
With that group of people around, he didn't dare to breathe loudly.
"You've got quite a wide network of connections, kid, from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School to the Star Luo Empire."
Dugu Bo glanced at the red-haired boy with a complicated expression.
Ma Hongjun smiled calmly.
"Senior Dugu, let's continue our transaction."
"To help you and your granddaughter detoxify, I need the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well."
Ma Hongjun stated his plan directly.
Dugu Bo's relaxed expression froze instantly, and he looked at the red-haired boy in disbelief.
"How do you know about the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire?"
Since discovering the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, he has sealed off the surrounding area, ensuring that no one will ever find it.
Even the two titled Douluo from before didn't notice.
Ma Hongjun chuckled. If it weren't for the fact that Dugu Bo had control of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, he wouldn't have asked Dugu Yan to act as a go-between so many times.
"Just tell me if you agree or not. If you don't agree, I'm leaving right now."
Ma Hongjun waved his hand, making a gesture as if he was about to leave.
Dugu Bo reached out his hand, but the hand he extended hesitated again and again.
A struggle flashed in his eyes.
This precious land is home to countless rare and precious materials, including many divine plants.
He was extremely unwilling to hand it over.
Dugu Bo gritted his teeth.
"I'll give you ten years' usage rights."
His eyes darted around, and Dugu Bo gestured with his hand.
"It seems you're not afraid of death, senior. In that case, just pretend I didn't say anything."
Ma Hongjun scoffed.
10 years?
Countless magical herbs can grow in this place, so what's the use of 10 years?
After saying that, he turned and left without the slightest hesitation.
Dugu Bo's figure flashed, and he appeared directly in front of the red-haired boy.
He gritted his teeth, a final struggle flashing in his eyes, and nodded dejectedly.
"I promise you, as long as you can help me and my granddaughter detoxify!"
Having achieved the desired result, Ma Hongjun turned around, completely ignoring Dugu Bo's murderous glare.
"Please lead the way, senior, and take me there to have a look."
Ma Hongjun raised an eyebrow.
Dugu Bo's face darkened, and he caught a glimpse of the silver-haired girl out of the corner of his eye, speaking in an unfriendly tone.
"I can take you, but not her!"
After saying that, he stretched out a hand, pointed at Gu Yuena, and gently shook it in front of the red-haired boy.
