Poison Douluo Dugu Bo had been waiting outside the entrance to the Ye Family Clinic for quite some time.

The moment Ye Qingzhou saw Dugu Bo, he cried out in shock, "Grandpa, did you say my first patient is a Titled Douluo?"

Ye Shuyuan replied, "That's right. He's a Titled Douluo."

Dugu Bo had naturally heard Ye Qingzhou and Ye Shuyuan talking. He looked gravely at the grandfather and grandson.

His gaze settled on Ye Qingzhou.

Ever since Ye Qingzhou had met his granddaughter, Dugu Yan had been speaking up for him.

That had given Dugu Bo a good impression of Ye Qingzhou when they met again.

But he had overheard Ye Qingzhou and Ye Shuyuan's conversation just now.

He looked at Ye Qingzhou with a hint of suspicion. "Old Ye, are you really willing to let your grandson treat the poison in my body?"

Ye Qingzhou was only six years old, with practically no experience.

Could he really do it?

Seeing that Poison Douluo had doubts, Ye Shuyuan didn't take offense. "I'm sure, Old Poison. Don't worry. I'd never harm you."

Dugu Bo was still doubtful. "Well... all right."

"To treat the poison problem in our Dugu family, I've made a special exception this time and approved you two entering my treasured grounds."

Treasured grounds?

Ye Qingzhou immediately guessed what he meant. Weren't these treasured grounds the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, number one on the must-visit list for ninety-nine percent of transmigrators?

Th-this was happening too fast.

He was only six, yet he was going to get the Immortal Herbs at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well before other transmigrators.

Most importantly, Tang San should still be at Notting Academy, all lovey-dovey with that hundred-thousand-year-old flirtatious rabbit.

Ye Shuyuan's interest was immediately piqued. Dugu Bo had told him about those treasured grounds more than once.

He had also explained why the poison in Dugu Bo's body had remained suppressed.

It was because he had cultivated at those treasured grounds.

"Then let's not waste time. Take us there."

"Let's go."

Led by Dugu Bo, Ye Shuyuan and Ye Qingzhou set out toward Sunset Forest.

Ye Qingzhou's mind raced as he searched for what he knew about the Immortal Herbs at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

Spirit Hall, Worship Hall.

Snake Lance Douluo was relaying information about Ye Qingzhou in the Worship Hall.

As Snake Lance Douluo gave his report, Qian Daoliu lay limp in the seat of honor, his pupils contracting violently.

"You're saying that besides Xiao Xue, someone else has been chosen by a god—and this god is a God King more powerful than the Angel God!"

The other worshippers in the Worship Hall broke into discussion, questioning Snake Lance Douluo's report.

"Snake Lance Douluo, could you and the young mistress have misread the signs?"

"How could there be a second person to receive a god's inheritance, let alone one at the God King level?"

Judging from Snake Lance Douluo's account alone, clearly no one was willing to believe him.

They were all powerful figures who had felt divine power alongside Qian Daoliu.

If a god had chosen an heir on the continent, how could everything have been so calm, without a single sign from heaven or earth?

Snake Lance Douluo knelt on one knee, his face set with absolute seriousness and determination.

"Grand Pontiff, worshippers, my report is entirely true. I haven't told a single lie."

Qian Daoliu came back to his senses. Snake Lance Douluo was a Titled Douluo he had personally chosen and entrusted with great hopes, and had assigned to protect his precious granddaughter, Qian Renxue.

He was also one of Spirit Hall's elders.

There was no reason for him to deceive them.

He asked, "What is that child's identity?"

Snake Lance Douluo replied, "The child's name is Ye Qingzhou. His Martial Soul is the Prayer Angel, and it has resonated with the young mistress's Six-Winged Angel. His father is Luo Feng, the current deputy captain of the Angel Legion."

Silence fell over the Worship Hall. You could have heard a pin drop.

Qian Daoliu's expression turned solemn as he murmured, "So he's Luo Feng's child. His Martial Soul resonated with Xiao Xue's Six-Winged Angel. If we can get him to join us... then Spirit Hall..."

The other worshippers waited for Qian Daoliu to speak.

He turned to Snake Lance Douluo and asked, "Snake Lance, apart from us, who else knows that Ye Qingzhou is a god's heir?"

Snake Lance Douluo didn't dare delay.

"Reporting to the Grand Pontiff, as far as I know, aside from those of us in the Worship Hall, the only one who knows Ye Qingzhou is a god's heir is probably his grandfather."

Second Worship Golden Crocodile Douluo, who had been watching the whole time, interjected:

"Is Ye Qingzhou's grandfather the only remaining healing-type Titled Douluo on the continent, Ye Shuyuan?"

Snake Lance Douluo nodded solemnly.

So what if Ye Shuyuan was a healing-type Titled Douluo? Qian Daoliu didn't care. The only person he cared about was Ye Qingzhou, another heir to a god.

"Snake Lance, you and Xiao Xue will handle bringing Ye Qingzhou over. You may only succeed; failure is not an option."

"Yes, Grand Pontiff. What about Deputy Captain Luo Feng?" Snake Lance Douluo paused.

Qian Daoliu waved a hand. "Let the matter between father and son be settled by the two of them. We have no right to meddle in someone else's family affairs."

"You may all leave. Aside from those present, I don't want anyone in Spirit Hall spreading news about Ye Qingzhou."

"Yes, Grand Pontiff."

The meeting ended, and the worshippers led by Golden Crocodile, along with Snake Lance, filed out of the Worship Hall.

"Golden Crocodile." Qian Daoliu called out to Golden Crocodile, who was at the head of the group.

Golden Crocodile stopped and looked back at Qian Daoliu.

"Grand Pontiff, what is it?"

"Go bring Luo Feng back. I want to see him."

"Understood."

After accepting the task, Golden Crocodile left.

Once Golden Crocodile was gone, Qian Daoliu gazed at the magnificent Angel God Statue and murmured to himself:

"Angel God, oh, Angel God. Why has someone from the Angel Clan been chosen by another god, a god even more powerful than you..."

A God King, more powerful than the Angel God.

With Xiao Xue's talent, she was destined to become the Angel God. If Ye Qingzhou could look after her, then after she ascended to the Divine Realm, he, as her grandfather, wouldn't have to worry about her anymore.

No matter what it took, he had to keep this talent in Spirit Hall.

And he couldn't let Bibi Dong get him.

Sunset Forest, Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

With Dugu Bo leading them, Ye Shuyuan and Ye Qingzhou reached the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well without a hitch.

Dugu Bo folded his arms and introduced the place to Ye Shuyuan and Ye Qingzhou. "We're here. This is my home."

As soon as they entered the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, Ye Shuyuan and his grandson were captivated by the magnificent scenery.

A pond resembling a yin-yang hot pot lay in the center, surrounded by all kinds of exotic flowers and plants.

At the sight, Ye Qingzhou and Ye Shuyuan cried out in unison, their excitement impossible to hide.

"My god, this is actually the legendary Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well!"
