Dugu Bo saw the other's small movements, and his mind was also racing.
Having walked the continent for many years, he had developed an incredibly cautious personality. After all, the two had only just met, and if the other party were to actually make a move on him during the detoxification process...
I should make this brat swear an oath too!
Thinking of this, Dugu Bo's thoughts suddenly cleared, and a smile appeared on his face.
"Hahaha! This old man can swear an oath according to your terms, but you brat must also swear not to play any tricks on me during the detoxification process. That's fair, right!"
Hearing this, Xia Ran secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
At least the outcome was good!
Next, both of them took oaths using their respective Martial Souls according to each other's requirements, and only then could the whole matter be considered settled.
Both of them let down their guard because of the other's oath, and the atmosphere was no longer as heavy as it had been just a moment ago.
At this time, Dugu Bo asked the question he was most curious about once again.
"Which faction are you actually from, brat? You can tell me now, right!"
"Me? Just a civilian Spirit Master, otherwise why would I need you to protect my path?"
Xia Ran's nonchalant answer surprised Dugu Bo, but at the same time, he didn't fully believe it, feeling that the other party still didn't trust him and refused to tell the truth.
"Alright, I need to pick some herbs I require, and then I will detoxify you."
"You recognize the things here?"
Dugu Bo looked at Xia Ran, only to see the other party not answering, walking up to a plant resembling a narcissus, and reaching out to pluck it and place it into a jade box.
This scene made Dugu Bo widen his eyes.
"How is this possible? Just plucked it like that? Won't it turn to ash?"
"If it's like that, I can do it too!"
Thinking this, he also walked up to a plant, and just as he was about to reach out to pick it, a wave of scorching heat blew him away directly.
This commotion drew Xia Ran's attention, and he saw that Dugu Bo's ink-green hair was scorched black, and even most of his eyebrows had been burned off.
Xia Ran couldn't help but frown slightly.
"Stop messing with these plants, okay? If you destroy something that could save your life, even if I swear the most poisonous oath, I won't be able to save you!"
Seeing this, Dugu Bo retreated to the side sheepishly; what he had just touched was the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower!
Even Xia Ran himself wasn't quite sure how to pick it, but since that thing was of no use to him right now, he had just skipped it.
He hadn't expected that in the time it took to lower his head, Dugu Bo would have almost destroyed it!
Xia Ran followed the methods in his memory and picked the Aromatic Silk Beauty, the Tulip, the Narcissus Jade Muscle Bone, and the Peerless Heartbroken Red.
Later, he would borrow the spring water of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes to consume the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and the Infernal Delicate Apricot, and while he was at it, add a drop of Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew, and this trip would be considered a complete success.
As for Dugu Bo's toxin problem, besides the Earth Dragon Golden Melon in the herb garden, he also provided the other party with a method to force the toxins into his spirit bones.
Both methods were applicable to Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan, but there was only one Earth Dragon Golden Melon, so it would depend on how this old guy chose.
Everything was prepared! Xia Ran then cast his gaze toward the two immortal herbs in the spring eye!
Chapter 59 Tang San and Yu Tianheng
In the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes, the Ice Spring and the Yang Spring coexisted in the form of a Yin-Yang fish, and two shimmering plants grew in the spring eye!
Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass!
Infernal Delicate Apricot!
Xia Ran clenched his fists secretly, the excitement on his face impossible to hide.
The two great immortal herbs were right before his eyes; if he could use the spring water to consume the immortal herbs and complete the Ice and Fire Body Tempering, it would bring a huge boost to his physical fitness!
Just standing in front of these two immortal herbs for a short while, his body had already been invaded by the cold and heat toxins, causing a slight itching sensation.
Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated.
The dagger in his hand slashed out, and the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass fell in response, caught in Xia Ran's hand.
A bone-chilling cold instantly swept through his entire body, freezing half of it along with it.
He hurriedly took out the jade disc again, wrapped it with spirit power, and Slashed toward the Infernal Delicate Apricot on the other side.
The fire-red immortal herb was in hand, and in the blink of an eye, Xia Ran's skin was scalded to the point of ulceration, the heart-piercing pain making him tremble slightly.
"These two great immortal herbs! Their power seems even more overbearing than I imagined!"
Xia Ran dared not hesitate any longer, directly wrapping the two immortal herbs with spirit power and sending them into his mouth.
Although the immortal items were poisonous, their attributes perfectly countered each other, and under the neutralization, he didn't feel much when eating them. As soon as they entered his mouth, they turned into pure medicinal power and flowed down his throat into his abdomen.
All of this was seen by Dugu Bo in the distance, who was shocked that Xia Ran had such courage.
Those two plants grew in the spring eye and were clearly highly poisonous; he didn't even dare to get close to them, yet this guy dared to consume them both!
Could it be that this guy had some special means?
Just as he was pondering, he saw a splash as the other party plunged into the water.
Xia Ran's figure plunged directly into the spring water, startling Dugu Bo so much that he rushed to the bank to check on the situation.
He was still counting on this guy to detoxify his granddaughter and save her life! He couldn't afford to have him eat himself to death at such a critical juncture!
Just as he was about to fish Xia Ran out, he discovered that the person in the spring was floating, already sitting in a cross-legged position and meditating.
The alternation between extreme cold and extreme heat caused red and blue lights to bloom on the other's skin, looking just like... ambient lighting...
In the spring, Xia Ran's body had lost all sensation, and even his consciousness had become extremely blurred; he was relying entirely on instinct to run his meditation technique and sort out the massive medicinal power within his body.
The dual attributes of ice and fire energy constantly scoured his meridians, making them increasingly resilient, while at the same time, the medicinal power fed back into his body, tempering his flesh through the two springs of ice and fire...
On the other side, Zhu Qing followed Xia Ran's instructions strictly, not taking Xiao Wu to wander around, and had been staying near the hotel they were originally at for these past few days.
Ning Rongrong had a lively personality; seeing that Xia Ran was away and the two girls wouldn't accompany her shopping, she only returned to stay at night.
On this day, she was eating lunch with Xiao Wu in the restaurant when she suddenly saw a familiar figure.
Looking closely, it was indeed an acquaintance!
She would never forget that slightly feminine face!
Tang San!
The moment she saw Tang San, Zhu Qing clenched her fists, and the chopsticks in her hand snapped into two pieces in an instant.
It was this bastard; she had nearly died at his hands twice in a row.
If it weren't for Xia Ran, she would have already fallen victim to him during Tang San's first sneak attack.
And that Sleeve Arrow he gave to Dai Mubai...
Xiao Wu, who was eating, noticed Zhu Qing's strange behavior and felt a bit curious, then followed her gaze toward the lobby!
This is? San... Tang San?
She hadn't expected to meet the "Third Brother" who had accompanied her for six years here; scenes from the past flashed through her mind.
The vows the boy made in the mountains, the figure of him holding a wooden comb under the moonlight.
The wooden comb...
Xiao Wu suddenly remembered that the wooden comb her mother left her was still in that person's hands.
Thinking of this, she stood up directly and started walking toward the center of the restaurant, with Zhu Qing following behind her.
Over here.
After Tang San met Yu Tianheng last time, he followed him to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
Yu Xiaogang used his connection with Flender to get familiar with Qin Ming, and coupled with Tang San's own decent talent, the two successfully joined the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
Although Tang San was not of noble birth, he was at least able to enroll as a genius soul master.
Yu Xiaogang was simply drifting through life; it didn't matter if there was one more mouth to feed, and with the connection of being Yu Tianheng's uncle, he simply stayed in the teacher's dormitory with Qin Ming.
Since then, Tang San had spent every day hanging out with Yu Tianheng, and upon learning that the other was actually the young sect master of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, Tang San wished he could stick to him every day.
Today happened to be a holiday for the academy, and with nothing to do, the two decided to come here for a drink.
Just as he was ordering dishes from the waiter, a pink figure suddenly appeared opposite them.
Tang San looked up, his expression immediately turning stunned!
"Xiao Wu? Why are you here?"
Regarding Xiao Wu, Tang San's inner feelings were quite complex.
Before he was "castrated," he had harbored some admiration for this lively and moving young girl.
And after all, they had lived together for six years; how could he just let go so easily?
But having lost his dignity as a man, he always felt he couldn't hold his head up in front of Xiao Wu. Her subtle little actions would touch his sore spot. Most importantly, he didn't know what kind of love potion Xia Ran had fed Xiao Wu, as even the things Xiao Wu said before were exactly the same as his!
Others might not understand, but Tang San had personally experienced the benefits of cultivating the path of poison. Adding a poison-attribute soul ring to his Blue Silver Grass was the best choice he had ever made in his life, and no one could shake that.
As for that slap he gave Xiao Wu, Tang San actually felt a bit of regret.
But things had reached this point, and dwelling on the past was meaningless. Now that she was right in front of him...
"Are you here to find me?"
"It's useless! There is no possibility between us anymore, so just give up on that idea!"
These two sentences were enough to make Xiao Wu's delicate body tremble with anger!
How could this person be so self-absorbed! They lived together for six years; how had she never noticed this before!
At this moment, Yu Tianheng was also curiously sizing up Xiao Wu. She was clearly a lively and moving young girl, and it seemed the two had some history, so how could Tang San refuse her so bluntly!
"Brother San, who is this?"
As soon as he spoke, the two girls noticed this side as well.
This look was significant; they saw that Yu Tianheng was also dressed in blue athletic gear, with a rugged face, and even his hair color was blue.
Sitting together with Tang San, it looked just like... a couple!
