"Hmm?"
Song Ye's string of arguments left Dugu Bo stunned.
Good heavens, he had only let Song Ye speak out of respect for Chen Xin, but he had not expected the boy's words to be so hard to refute.
He might indeed have been the first to discover this place, but legally and morally, he could not be considered the owner of this Medicinal Garden.
At most, he was the first person to eat crab. Before any conclusion had been reached, this Medicinal Garden belonged to no one.
Dugu Bo was rather embarrassed on the spot. "This..."
"Stinky Boy, you sure have a sharp tongue!"
Seeing this, Chen Xin nodded as well. At first, he had only brought Song Ye along because of Ning Rongrong.
Yet he had not expected This child to react so quickly and possess such a keen mind. He was no ordinary person.
Extremely satisfied, he spoke to Dugu Bo as well. "Old Poison, stop talking nonsense."
"Tell me, is there anything wrong with this child's reasoning?"
"If you truly bought this land, then we would not dare act rashly according to the law."
"But if you do not actually have the right to claim it, then what right do you have to discuss ownership of this Medicinal Garden? We discovered it too, so naturally we are qualified to enter!"
"This... uh..."
Hearing that, Dugu Bo could only admit that he had to take the loss today.
Song Ye's words were merely supplementary. The main reason was that Chen Xin was here, and he could not defeat him. The finest treasures in the world belonged to the capable.
When Dugu Bo had kept this Medicinal Garden hidden from others before, there had been nothing to say about it.
But now that other Titled Douluo had seen it, how could he possibly keep it all for himself?
Not to mention other Titled Douluo reasoning with him, even if they did not bother reasoning and simply seized it by force, that was quite common on Douluo Continent.
Dugu Bo let out a long sigh and said helplessly, "Fine. Let those who see it have a share."
"Since you have come here, I cannot keep the Medicinal Garden to myself."
"Sword Douluo, you must have come prepared this time. I cannot out-argue you."
"But I must make this clear: no matter what, I discovered this Medicinal Garden first, and I need it too!"
"You may take any Herbs you wish from within, but you cannot occupy the entire Medicinal Garden. Otherwise, even if Old Man is no match for you, I will still fight you to the death!"
As he said this, Dugu Bo did not completely back down. He still made his firm stance clear where it mattered.
He had no choice. The poison of his Martial Soul had tormented him for years. Without the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to suppress the poison, he likely would not live much longer.
The Immortal Herbs and Spiritual Herbs did not matter, since Dugu Bo could not use them at all. What mattered was keeping the environment that sustained his life.
Hearing this, Chen Xin looked at Song Ye with some confusion and asked, "What do you think?"
Song Ye thought for a moment. Understanding the other man's situation, he looked at Dugu Bo and said:
"Poison Douluo, others may not know, but I do."
"You have no use for these Immortal Herbs and Spiritual Herbs. What you truly need is the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to suppress the Snake venom within your body."
"How about this? I can teach you a method to transfer the Snake venom in your body, protecting yourself and even saving your granddaughter."
"That way, we would not be taking this Treasure Land without giving anything in return."
"Hmm?"
The moment he said that, Dugu Bo was utterly astonished, afraid that he had misheard.
"Stinky Boy, what did you say?"
"How do you know about Old Man's..."
Song Ye smiled. "Why be surprised over such a small matter?"
"As long as you are willing to hand over the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, I can guarantee the complete safety of you and your Descendants. That is two lives!"
"You!"
"Fine!" Dugu Bo had never expected such a turn. If his life and his granddaughter Dugu Yan's life could be saved—
What Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well? What Immortal Herbs and Spiritual Herbs? What else could possibly matter?
Life was the most important thing!
He immediately agreed, even personally escorting Song Ye and the others into the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well afterward.
Upon reaching the Treasure Land and feeling the agony of extreme cold and extreme heat, Xiao Wu and the others were somewhat frightened and uncomfortable.
Song Ye reassured them, "It is fine. We have two Titled Douluo protecting us."
Xiao Wu looked at him in astonishment. "Song Ye, you understand poison too?"
"Can you really solve Dugu Bo's problems?"
Song Ye nodded. He only needed to follow Tang San's method from the Original Work.
The main principle was simply transferring the Snake venom into soul bones. As for the remaining Details, Dugu Bo was an expert in poison himself and could handle them.
After hearing Song Ye's words, Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing were both surprised and delighted.
The Two women hurriedly asked Xiao Wu:
"Xiao Wu, where exactly did you find this person? He seems pretty impressive."
"Yeah, he is not much older than us, yet he is so knowledgeable and perceptive. He even has a special kind of presence. His Soul Master rank must not be low either."
"If he is not a Playboy, he seems far better than those people from Shrek."
Influenced by the previous Light Screen, Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong had become very interested in men outside Shrek.
Whenever they encountered a man better than the Shrek men, they unconsciously took a few more looks.
Song Ye had not known them for long, yet he had already displayed immense knowledge and sharp wits. He also knew how to repay Dugu Bo, showing that his character was not too bad.
As long as his Soul Master rank was strong enough, he was countless times better than those Playboys from Shrek no matter how they looked at it!
Hearing this, Xiao Wu looked at Song Ye from afar and fell into thought. She murmured, "Indeed, it is like seeing Xiao San from back then in him."
"Xiao San back then understood many things and knew how to get things done too."
"It is just that Xiao San now..."
Thinking of this, Xiao Wu sighed again. She should not say more.
Meanwhile, Chen Xin and Dugu Bo waited nearby, allowing Song Ye to identify the Immortal Herbs and Spiritual Herbs.
After all, the Original Work of Douluo had described the appearances of those Immortal Herbs. Some had been described in the first part, while others appeared in later parts.
In any case, identifying the Immortal Herbs according to the original text was not difficult.
Dugu Bo hoped Song Ye would help him and his granddaughter remove their poison, but at this moment, as a Titled Douluo, he also noticed the unusual aura of Xiao Wu as a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.
Just as he was about to ask, Chen Xin directly said, "Do not ask what you should not ask!"
"Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect affairs are none of your concern, Old Poison."
Dugu Bo nodded and decided not to wade into muddy waters. His strength was inferior to the other Titled Douluo, so he had better behave himself.
Afterward, Song Ye found all the Immortal Herbs they needed and pointed to them one by one.
"Xiao Wu, this one is the Lovesick Heartbreak Red. It can only be plucked by someone who holds true love in her heart."
"I do not care who is in your heart. You must focus completely on plucking it and keep recalling your love. Only then can you succeed."
Seeing that blood-red and white Immortal Herb, Xiao Wu grew somewhat nervous. As Song Ye spoke, Tang San had already come to mind.
Yet for some reason, perhaps because of the Light Screen's influence or perhaps because of the contrast with Song Ye, Xiao Wu became dazed for a moment and began to question Tang San.
However, love was often not an eternal, unchanging state. As long as her heart was filled with love at this very moment of plucking the flower, that was enough.
It did not matter whether there were problems before plucking it or after plucking it.
Xiao Wu began to pluck the Lovesick Heartbreak Red. Song Ye continuously assisted her from the side, mentioning Tang San's good points and the care he had shown her, making her temporarily forget Tang San's shortcomings.
Sure enough, Tang San still held a place in Xiao Wu's heart.
In less than a moment, the Lovesick Heartbreak Red had been plucked. It lay quietly in Xiao Wu's hand, like a sleeping beauty...
After she plucks the flower, there will be a sharp review of Xiao Wu, and Xiao Wu will leave Tang San. Dear readers, rest assured!
For now, she only needs to pluck the flower. Once it is plucked, who would still want Tang San?
Feelings? What feelings are eternal? In the real world, are not feelings all temporary?
