Xu Fan chuckled inwardly, knowing Dugu Yan was playing along with his words.

He pondered for a moment before saying, "As for its exact value, I'm afraid I'll need to see the Treasure Land before I can determine that. However... judging by your condition, miss, you may not be well. Perhaps you've been poisoned."

Dugu Yan's expression changed drastically. "Do you know what you're saying? My grandfather is the Poison Douluo, and my martial soul is related to the Poison Attribute as well. You're saying I've been poisoned?"

Dugu Yan even gave herself a thumbs-up inwardly. She hadn't expected her acting to be this convincing, and in her mind, she added Zhu Zhuqing as a friend.

Seeing this, Zhu Zhuqing glanced at Dugu Yan.

Sure enough, other people had notebooks too. No wonder Dugu Yan had come here—she had come after seeing Xu Fan's message.

"Precisely because your martial soul is related to the Poison Attribute, you were poisoned. You can ask your grandfather. He is a Title Douluo, so his poisoning is even more severe. Look at your own and your grandfather's fingernails, hair, and so on. Aren't they all abnormal?

Those are all signs of poisoning."

Dugu Yan's expression turned grave. "Hmph, that sounds rather convincing. Fine, you don't look like the sort of people with evil intentions, and besides... this is indeed somewhat interesting."

"That place you mentioned is in the valley ahead. However, it is my grandfather's private Herb Garden. Ordinary people simply cannot enter."

"Only I can take you there."

Xu Fan relaxed inwardly and nodded. "I would be most grateful if you are willing to lead the way, miss."

"Save your thanks for later. If you cannot convince my grandfather, you will not leave this place alive."

"I have confidence in myself." Xu Fan smiled.

"Fine, follow me." Dugu Yan stopped wasting words, turned around, and headed toward the valley entrance first with light steps.

Xu Fan and Zhu Zhuqing exchanged a glance before immediately following her.

The three of them ran one after another toward the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes.

Dugu Yan led the way ahead, the corners of her lips curling upward.

I hope Grandpa will listen to them. But with me here, nothing will happen to them.

Following Dugu Yan through the final passage shrouded in dense poisonous mist, the view before them suddenly opened up.

When Xu Fan saw the scene before him, his breathing caught. He was shaken by the wondrous craftsmanship of nature.

Not far away, at the Valley Center, a Hot Spring lay quietly.

The Hot Spring was not particularly large, but what left people dumbfounded was that its waters were Clearly distinct in two completely different colors.

One side was Milky White, permeated with Chilling Cold Air. The other was Vermilion Red, steaming with scorching heat.

Milky White and Vermilion Red each occupied half of the oval pool. An invisible boundary separated them, neither encroaching upon the other as they maintained a delicate balance.

Billowing vapor continually rose from the pool, as Milky White cold mist intertwined with Vermilion Red Hot Vapor.

It surged straight upward, only vanishing once it reached the mountain pass above the valley.

"So this is... the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes?" Zhu Zhuqing, standing beside Xu Fan, was also dazed for a rare moment. Red and white light reflected in her cold eyes as she murmured softly.

When the two arrived at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes,

the other girls became anxious.

Ning Rongrong paced back and forth in her room. "That guy, what exactly is a Soul Spirit? He didn't even explain it properly. People who only say half of what they mean are the most annoying. But since he has met Dugu Yan, it means Dugu Yan went to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes after seeing Xu Fan's message. I wonder whether Xu Fan has obtained the Immortal Herbs yet. I hope Dugu Yan brings Xu Fan to Heaven Dou City. That way, I'll be able to meet Xu Fan. Immortal Herbs... hehe..."

"Kid!"

A thin figure slowly approached.

Xu Fan looked over and saw an Old Man with a tall, slender frame. His Beard and Hair were an unusual Dark green, hanging about him in a disheveled mess.

His eyes, a pair of gem-like green Eyes, gave off an unsettling sense of Palpitations.

The Poison Douluo, Dugu Bo.

Xu Fan's heart tightened. He knew the main person had arrived.

He immediately steadied himself, stepped forward, and subtly shielded Zhu Zhuqing behind him. He respectfully bowed to Dugu Bo. "This Junior is Xu Fan. Greetings, Senior Poison Douluo. I came here uninvited and disturbed your cultivation. I hope Senior will forgive me."

Knowing her grandfather had an eccentric temperament, Dugu Yan immediately went to Dugu Bo's side.

"Grandpa, I invited them here."

Dugu Bo nodded. "Otherwise, they would already be dead."

Cold sweat ran down Zhu Zhuqing's back. This was the first Title Douluo she had ever seen.

The pressure he gave off was immense.

And this was when Dugu Bo had not exerted any pressure at all.

"Kid Xu Fan, what business do you have in my Herb Garden?" Dugu Bo asked. He felt that his granddaughter's attitude toward this kid seemed somewhat strange.

They should have been meeting for the first time, so why did she seem to have a favorable impression of him?

Could it be because he was handsome?

He was indeed far more handsome than Yu Tianheng.

Xu Fan swept his gaze around the area, looking at the twenty or thirty Immortal Herbs on the ground. The corner of his mouth twitched. "Your Excellency is truly wasting them."

"What do you mean?" Dugu Bo asked.

"Your Excellency, do you know what this place is called?"

Dugu Bo raised his head slightly but did not answer.

Xu Fan continued, "This is the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes, one of the Three Great Treasure Lands of the Douluo Continent. This place can increase the growth rate of Spiritual Herbs and Medicines tenfold. As for some of the Spiritual Herbs on the ground that you do not recognize, they are not ordinary Spiritual Herbs.

They are Immortal Herbs!"

"Treasure Land? Immortal Herbs?!" Dugu Bo's expression gradually became grave. Though he still did not fully understand, he knew they were definitely precious things.

"Why do you know this?" Dugu Bo asked in confusion. "You are merely a small Soul Grandmaster."

"A Family Heirloom." Xu Fan smiled.

"Then, you want this Herb Garden?" Dugu Bo asked.

"Of course I do." Xu Fan nodded. "However, Your Excellency, this Herb Garden is immensely valuable. If your family were to use it yourselves, then perhaps within a Hundred Year, you could create a family no weaker than the Clear Sky Sect."

At those words, Dugu Bo's Pupils suddenly contracted.

That terrifying?

Although the Clear Sky Sect had sealed itself away, it was still a first-rate power on the continent.

"Grandpa, we don't know how to use these things or even what they are. We might as well trade them for something else." Dugu Yan tugged at Dugu Bo's arm.

Dugu Bo looked at his granddaughter, who was clearly taking outsiders' side, and felt somewhat speechless.

Xu Fan added, "Your Excellency, I know you keep the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes because you want to use it to suppress the toxins in your body."

Dugu Bo's aura rose slightly as he stepped forward. "How did you know? Not even Yanyan knows about this."

"Grandpa, he could tell. He even saw that I was poisoned," Dugu Yan immediately said.
