"It can be cured!"

The moment those two words left Yang Yuan's mouth, Dugu Yan and Dugu Bo's faces were instantly filled with wild joy.

Dugu Yan shook Yang Yuan's arm.

"Yang Yuan's Younger Brother, is what you said true?"

"Of course."

"However, the toxins in Grandpa Dugu's body exceed Sister Dugu's by dozens of times."

"Normally, even with Grandpa Dugu's formidable cultivation suppressing them, the toxins should have erupted by now."

"But although Grandpa Dugu's condition is far from optimistic, he does not appear to be in mortal danger."

As he spoke, Yang Yuan looked at Dugu Bo with a "curious" expression.

"Grandpa Dugu, could it be that you consumed some Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures to suppress the spread of the toxins in your body?"

"Hahaha, Xiao Yuan, I never expected you to see even that. No wonder you were confident you could cure the Martial Soul poison in my body."

"However, I have never consumed any Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures."

Yang Yuan grew even more "curious."

Dugu Bo did not keep him in suspense. With a hint of pride, he said, "Although I have not consumed any Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, I do have an Herb Garden."

"Not only does this Herb Garden contain all kinds of rare medicinal herbs, but it also possesses a special effect that can suppress the spread of the toxins in my body."

Dugu Yan smiled as well. "I know that place too. Unfortunately, Grandpa said my Soul Power Level is too low. If I cultivated there for too long, not only would it fail to suppress the toxins in my body, it would instead harm me."

Yang Yuan's eyes lit up as he feigned surprise.

"There is such a wondrous place?"

"With the help of this place, perhaps I can solve Grandpa Dugu's problem even more easily."

Dugu Bo laughed heartily.

"If that is the case, why not go take a look at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye?"

Sunset Forest lay a hundred li outside Heaven Dou City.

Dugu Bo's Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye was located deep within Sunset Forest.

On the way, Dugu Bo looked helplessly at his granddaughter.

"Yanyan, Xiao Yuan and I were enough. Why did you insist on coming along too?"

Dugu Yan said irritably, "Grandpa, stop worrying for nothing. It is not as if I plan to stay in the Herb Garden the whole time."

"Fine, then."

Since she had already come along, Dugu Bo naturally could not send Dugu Yan back.

The three of them continued onward and soon entered a Poison Array.

Soul Power surged around Dugu Bo's body as he directly created an invisible domain around them, preventing the poisonous mist within the Poison Array from coming within thirty feet of the three.

Beyond the Poison Array lay the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye, situated within an inverted cone-shaped valley.

The three quickly passed through the Poison Array and arrived atop a mountain peak. Below the far side of the peak was the valley where the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye was located.

Dugu Bo smiled at Yang Yuan and Dugu Yan. "I'll take you down."

Yang Yuan shook his head.

"No need to go through the trouble."

As he spoke, a glimmer of chaotic light flashed through his Double Pupil, and a pair of azure wings abruptly unfurled from his back.

Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan were both startled.

Dugu Yan stammered slightly, "Yang Yuan's Younger Brother, is this also a Martial Soul copied by your Eye Martial Soul?"

"But didn't you say that once the copied Martial Soul is more than one kilometer away from the person it copied, it becomes ineffective?"

"Of course, that was just something I made up."

The pair of azure wings on Yang Yuan's back fluttered, immediately stirring up a fierce gust of wind.

After hearing that, Dugu Yan huffed coquettishly. "You did not tell us such an important secret before, yet you are showing it right in front of Grandpa and me. Aren't you afraid we might spread it around?"

Yang Yuan asked nonchalantly, "Would Sister Dugu spread my secret?"

"Of course not!" Dugu Yan answered firmly.

"Exactly!"

"The reason I am willing to reveal my secret before Sister Dugu and Grandpa Dugu is naturally because I trust you."

At those words, both Dugu Yan and Dugu Bo felt warmth rise in their hearts.

It was difficult not to be moved by the feeling of being trusted.

After speaking, Yang Yuan extended his hand.

"Sister Dugu, I'll take you down."

A flicker of interest crossed Dugu Yan's face, and she smiled as she extended her hand.

Once Yang Yuan took her hand, he immediately felt a cool sensation.

"Grandpa Dugu, we'll head down first."

With that, Yang Yuan pushed off with the tip of his foot and leaped off the cliff, pulling Dugu Yan along with him.

Dugu Bo watched the two descend, stroking his chin.

Then, an idea suddenly struck him, and he grinned.

Afterward, he too leaped down.

On the other side, Yang Yuan took Dugu Yan on a circle through the air before landing steadily.

A dense surge of ice-and-fire energy immediately rushed toward them.

Yang Yuan raised his eyes and looked ahead.

Not far away, a mystical pool sat at the center of the valley.

All the ice-and-fire energy in the valley came from that pool.

Half of the pool was crimson, like volcanic lava, giving off billowing heat.

The other half was milky white, shrouded in cold mist and exuding an icy aura.

The two utterly different halves of the pool were sharply divided, neither infringing upon the other, creating a magnificent and spectacular sight.

Even Yang Yuan could not help revealing a look of surprise upon seeing the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye for the first time.

Around the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye grew all manner of strange flowers and exotic herbs.

Although Yang Yuan did not recognize these flowers and herbs, his Double Pupil could perceive the origin of all things in the world.

Thus, even without recognizing them, Yang Yuan could still clearly understand their medicinal properties.

At that moment, Dugu Bo also flew down from above the mountain peak.

Noticing Yang Yuan's gaze, he laughed heartily and pointed at the Spirit Flowers and Herbs around the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye, pride written across his face.

"This Herb Garden is all Grandpa owns. It could be said that any single Spirit Herb picked from here could fetch an astronomical price outside."

Beside Yang Yuan, Dugu Yan whispered, "Yang Yuan's Younger Brother, if you take a liking to any Spirit Herb in the garden, just tell your sister."

"But be careful. Many of these Spirit Herbs are poisonous plants containing deadly toxins, so they probably will not be of much use to you."

Dugu Bo revealed a meaningful smile at the sight.

"Yanyan is right. Xiao Yuan, if you like any Spirit Herb, just tell Grandpa."

"We are all family, so do not stand on ceremony with Grandpa."

All family?

Yang Yuan froze. He instinctively looked at Dugu Yan beside him, whose cheeks had reddened, and immediately understood the meaning behind Dugu Bo's words. The corner of his mouth twitched slightly.

Dugu Bo had suddenly gotten the idea to find himself a grandson-in-law?

But he was only "eight years old." Wasn't Dugu Bo being far too impatient?

Of course, Yang Yuan would not feel the slightest dislike toward Dugu Bo's idea.

After all, he wished for more good things like gaining both wealth and beauty.

At that moment, Dugu Yan blushed shyly and changed the subject.

"Yang Yuan's Younger Brother, hurry and see whether this place will work. Can it help you cure the Martial Soul poison in Grandpa's body more easily?"

Yang Yuan answered calmly, "Sister Dugu, rest assured. With the help of this wondrous place, solving Grandpa Dugu's problem will be as easy as turning my hand."

That was wonderful!

The surprise on Dugu Yan's face eclipsed her shyness.

Dugu Bo's aged body trembled slightly, and the light of liberation appeared in his eyes.

He...

Was finally going to escape the erosion of those damned toxins?
