Douluo Dalu: The Goddesses Know My Secrets

Dugu Yan didn’t act spoiled in front of Dugu Bo as she usually did.

She stood there, her fingers tightly gripping the hem of her clothes, her face filled with hesitation and conflict.

Her lips moved several times, but she couldn’t bring herself to speak.

Dugu Bo noticed something was wrong.

He put away his smile.

"What’s wrong, Yan Yan? What on earth happened? Is there something you can’t tell your grandpa?"

As her eyes met Dugu Bo’s concerned gaze, Dugu Yan trembled slightly, almost imperceptibly.

After some hesitation, she chose to speak: "Grandpa, I want to ask you something, and you must tell me the truth."

"Alright, Grandpa will tell you the truth."

Dugu Bo nodded, but a hint of unease rose in his heart.

This was the first time Yan Yan had ever been so serious in front of him.

Dugu Yan: "Grandpa, are you... are you working for someone else? Have you taken someone as your master?"

As soon as she said this, the expression on Dugu Bo’s face froze instantly.

He stood there, stunned.

His eyes widened suddenly, his face filled with shock and disbelief.

Staring at Dugu Yan, Dugu Bo’s voice even changed its tone.

"Yan Yan, how... how do you know about this?"

His subconscious response was equivalent to a direct admission.

"!!!"

Dugu Yan’s heart felt as if it were being squeezed hard by a hand, sinking to the bottom in an instant.

She had still been holding onto a glimmer of hope, thinking that the people in the Chat Group were just talking nonsense.

But her grandpa’s reaction shattered all of her hopes.

She stumbled back a step,

Her face was full of shock, and her voice rose several pitches.

"It’s actually true?!"

"Grandpa, are you really working for someone else?"

"You’re a Titled Douluo! The Poison Douluo with the most powerful poison skills! How could you work for someone else?"

Seeing his granddaughter’s shocked expression, Dugu Bo’s old face instantly flushed with a hint of embarrassment.

He rubbed his nose, his eyes darting away.

He coughed twice and quickly explained, "Oh, Yan Yan, you can’t put it like that."

"What do you mean ’working for someone’? Grandpa is... Grandpa just found a big backer for himself."

He muttered to himself: In this entire continent, there’s probably no bigger backer than the Supreme Pontiff of Spirit Hall, right?

Moreover, that Young Lord also has infinite potential and is highly regarded by the Supreme Pontiff.

Being able to latch onto such a powerful figure is a great thing for both him and Yan Yan!

"A backer?"

Dugu Yan frowned; she didn’t understand.

"Grandpa, you’re a Titled Douluo yourself; you are the biggest backer. Why would you need to find one?"

"Yan Yan, you don’t understand."

Dugu Bo waved his hand, his tone becoming unusually serious.

"There are many people on this continent more powerful than your grandpa."

"Grandpa’s poison looks impressive, but against truly top-tier experts, it’s simply not enough."

"Furthermore, this Jade Phosphor Serpent poison in my body has trapped me for a lifetime, harmed my child, and almost harmed you as well."

"Where do you think Grandpa’s method of using Spirit Bones to expel poison came from? And where did your Spirit Bone come from?"

"These were all methods provided by my Young Lord."

"Without him, it wouldn’t matter for me, but you, Yan Yan, would have eventually suffered from the backlash of the toxin."

"!"

Dugu Yan was instantly stunned.

A few days ago, her grandpa had come to her for this very reason and even gave her a Spirit Bone to expel the poison.

So... it was actually because of that so-called ’Young Lord’?

Dugu Yan snapped back to her senses.

Thinking of a possibility, she asked urgently, "Grandpa, what is the name of this Young Lord you’re talking about?"

"Ah?"

Now, Dugu Bo was suddenly in a difficult position.

The expression on his face froze; he opened his mouth but couldn’t say anything for a long while.

This matter was an absolute secret!

Whether it was joining Spirit Hall and recognizing Bibi Dong as his superior, or acknowledging Lin Qingmo as the Young Lord.

Once this matter leaked out, Supreme PontiffBibi Dong would certainly not let him off easily.

Supreme PontiffBibi Dong had specifically instructed that this must never be known by a third person.

But seeing his granddaughter’s eager eyes, he couldn’t bear to lie to her.

Dugu Bo still felt his life was more important and said vaguely, "Well... Yan Yan, the Young Lord’s identity is an absolute secret; it can’t be spoken of lightly."

"Stop asking; knowing won’t do you any good."

"You can’t say?"

Dugu Yan caught his evasive gaze, which didn’t surprise her.

But a name had already surfaced in her mind.

She took a deep breath, looked at Dugu Bo, and asked word by word, "Grandpa, is your Young Lord referred to as... A-Qing?"

"???"

As soon as she said this...

Dugu Bo was stunned.

"A-Qing... isn’t that what the Supreme Pontiff calls the Young Lord?"

Hiss!

How did Yan Yan know?

He took a sudden step forward and grabbed Dugu Yan’s arm.

"Yan Yan, how do you know the Young Lord’s name? Where on earth did you find out?"

His reaction undoubtedly gave Dugu Yan the clearest answer.

"..."

Dugu Yan’s heart constricted violently, and a chill rushed from the soles of her feet to the top of her head.

She stumbled back a step, her face turning pale instantly.

Only one thought remained in her mind: everything said in the Chat Group was actually true!

Every word said by that A-Qing from another World was actually true.

Her grandpa really did recognize someone else as his Young Lord and really became someone’s subordinate.

And that person was the Lin Qingmo from the Chat Group.

The sudden paleness of his granddaughter’s face made Dugu Bo’s unease grow heavier.

He didn’t know where Dugu Yan had learned about this.

But this matter was too significant; there could be absolutely no mistakes.

He pressed down on Dugu Yan’s shoulders, his expression more solemn than ever before, and his tone was extremely serious.

"Yan Yan, listen to Grandpa."

"This matter concerns the lives of both of us, and even the layout of the entire continent."

"What you’ve heard, what you’ve seen, and the Young Lord’s name must never be mentioned to anyone."

"Not even to your most trusted teammates or closest friends—not a single word. Do you understand?"

Her grandpa’s serious demeanor made Dugu Yan realize the gravity of the situation.

She nodded with a complex expression and replied softly, "I understand, Grandpa. I won’t tell anyone, I promise."

Having received her promise, her grandpa finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He then ruffled her hair.

"Alright, don’t think too much about it."

"This Young Lord is a true genius of the heavens. Following him only brings us benefits, no harm. You’ll understand in the future."

"..."

Dugu Yan didn’t say anything more.

But her heart was already in a state of turmoil.

At this moment, her mind was filled with A-Qing’s profile picture from the Chat Group and the things he had said.

Just who was this man called A-Qing?

Even her grandpa, a Titled Douluo, willingly recognized him as his Young Lord.

And who was the Titled Douluo master behind him who actually recruited her grandpa?

Even Grandpa considers them a big backer, so they must be at least more powerful than the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan of the Upper Three Sects.

With more and more questions, Dugu Yan’s curiosity about Lin Qingmo reached its peak.
