Chapter 40 Pretending to Submit to Dugu Bo Dugu Bo looked at Lin Xiao on the black dragon's head with extreme vigilance. Now he had nowhere to escape and was waiting for the other party to make the first move. However, looking at the other party's appearance, he had no intention of making any move at all. He was a little confused and felt very tormented. Lin Xiao looked at Dugu Bo calmly, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he silently said in his heart: "The system accepts the task." [Congratulations to the host for accepting the mission. The mission reward has been issued.] The system's voice continued to echo in Lin Xiao's mind. As Lin Xiao accepted the task, the rewards for the system task were instantly distributed. At the same time, the method of using the slavery mark appeared in Lin Xiao's mind. Unfortunately, the slavery mark can only be used on Dugu Bo, and cannot be used on other Titled Douluo. Otherwise, he would have a lot of room for maneuver. "Dugu Bo, I can give you a chance to live, but you need to submit to us. What do you think? Don't even think about pretending to submit. With our abilities, we can find you no matter where you run to, in heaven or on earth!" Lin Xiao said lightly. Hearing this, Dugu Bo was slightly stunned. Surrender? Surrender and you can live? Then he would definitely choose to surrender, anyway, it was just a verbal surrender. If there was a chance, he would take his granddaughter and leave the Tiandou Empire. As a Titled Douluo, there was no place he couldn't go with a Douluo? If he hid, it would be impossible for the other party to find him! "Haha~ I surrender now only because I am forced by the situation. When I have a chance to take Yanyan away from this dangerous place, you will look for me everywhere in the world? Ridiculous, extremely ridiculous. With my ability, I can hide completely. It is impossible for you to find me!" Dugu Bo thought to himself. Dugu Bo had lived a free and undisciplined life, so how could he possibly submit to anyone, especially someone who wanted to kill him? His current submission was just a pretense!

“If...if I really choose to submit to you and work for you, can you really let me go?!” Dugu Bo asked, to prevent the other party from regretting it. "Of course you can. If Poison Douluo chooses to submit to us and work for us, we will naturally not treat him unfairly. Of course, if Poison Douluo is pretending to submit, then Poison Douluo will die miserably!" Lin Xiao said with a smile. Although Lin Xiao said this with a smile, Dugu Bo could feel a strong chill from these words, as if he would really die miserably if he pretended to surrender! "Okay. I choose to submit to you, and I hope you won't regret it. However, it will take time for me to completely submit to you. I hope you don't mind during this period of time." Dugu Bo said. "of course can." Immediately afterwards, Lin Xiao dispersed the ten black dragons around Dugu Bo, but he did not eliminate the red barrier. Otherwise, Dugu Bo would seize the opportunity to escape. Although he had the ability to catch him, there would be unnecessary trouble. Watching the black dragon gradually dissipating around him, Dugu Bo breathed a sigh of relief. There was an imperceptible hint of mockery in his eyes as he looked at Lin Xiao. Surrender, what's the point of verbal surrender? Could it be possible that the other party could force himself? "I hope you won't regret it!" Dugu Bo said with a smile, feeling like he had survived a catastrophe. He immediately dissipated the Bilin Snake King Martial Spirit and slowly landed on the ground, staring at Lin Xiao and the others. "Of course not." After saying that, Lin Xiao ordered the black dragon to slowly land on the ground. The two of them jumped up and slowly landed on the ground from the black dragon's head, taking light steps towards Dugu Bo's position. "Dugu Bo, to be honest, I am not willing to let you go just now. Take the murderous intent you almost solidified towards us just now. We should not let you go. But now, if you choose to submit to us, you can live. If you dare to have any evil thoughts, you will die miserably!" Qian Renxue's face was as cold as frost and her tone was cold. In fact, she was not willing to let Dugu Bo go, even though Dugu Bo had expressed his willingness to submit to them, but what could verbal submission mean? Dugu Bo verbally surrendered to them, and when they left, if Dugu Bo wanted to escape and hide completely, it would not be easy to find them. Moreover, Dugu Bo knew the other party's character clearly, and it was completely impossible for him to surrender to anyone! But now, her brother Lin Xiao has the means to control Dugu Bo. If the other party dares to have any bad intentions, he will explode and die. From then on, he can only truly submit to them and work for them! Otherwise, even if her brother Lin Xiao insisted on letting Dugu Bo go, she would not agree. Keeping Dugu Bo was a potential hidden danger. Who knows when, he might betray them and cause immeasurable losses to them! "Don't worry, both of you. Since I, Dugu Bo, have said that I will submit to you and work for you, there is naturally no possibility of betrayal. I, Dugu Bo, still have this credibility!" Dugu Bo said with a smile. Qian Renxue frowned slightly. What credibility does Dugu Bo have? Isn't credibility meant to be thrown away? She believed that Dugu Bo could do it by pretending to submit. Lin Xiao's face was cold. He slowly walked to Dugu Bo and said, "Dugu Bo, we cannot trust your credibility. Verbal submission alone has no trust value. So, Dugu Bo." Hearing this, Dugu Bo felt his scalp tingling. It was not enough to just surrender verbally. Could it be that the other party had some way to restrict him to surrender? How could there be a way to restrict Title Douluo in this world? There may be ways to restrict ordinary soul masters, but those methods are completely ineffective when facing a Titled Douluo with strong mental power. "Since you don't trust Dugu Bo, how can you trust Dugu Bo?" Dugu Bo asked. There was nothing he could do since the other party didn't trust him. He was powerless and he could do nothing about it. "If you want to stay alive, you can. I have a method to control Titled Douluo. If you dare to have any evil thoughts, you will explode and die. I wonder if you can accept this?" Lin Xiao said with a smile. "Huh?" Dugu Bo's eyes widened in disbelief, but he didn't believe there was such a method, so he smiled and said, "If you really have it, then use it on Dugu Bo. Dugu Bo won't resist!" Looking at Dugu Bo's generous look, Lin Xiao's lips curled up slightly. He wondered what kind of expression Dugu Bo would have after the enslavement was successful? "Come on, sir. No matter what method you use, Dugu Bo will not resist!" Dugu Bo put his hands behind his back with a calm expression.
