"This... really is where Uncle and Aunt's dragon souls and bones might be buried."
Di Tian soon reached the depths. Just as he had suspected, the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings' corpses lay deep beneath the spring.
The reason this place could nurture Immortal Herbs and contained the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well was that the bones of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings, who had died here, had formed it.
"Di Tian!" x2
Just then, a man's and a woman's voices rang out. Di Tian quickly noticed them and hurried over. Sure enough, the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings' dragon souls were waiting for him there.
"Uncle! Aunt!" Seeing his elders from the dragon race there, Di Tian was overcome with emotion. After all, only a handful of dragons remained.
"Di Tian!" the Ice Dragon King said. "How is the dragon race doing now? Your aunt and I died here, and we've never known what became of the dragon race. Can you tell us?"
"Uncle, Aunt, here's what happened. Our Beast race can no longer become gods. It's the result of the Divine Realm suppressing us. Now, only I, Zi JI, and our lord remain of the dragon race."
"Tell us in detail. What exactly happened?"
"Yes!"
Di Tian then explained the dragon race's current situation.
"Curse those human gods! You deserve to die! The Beast race was already in decline, and you still imposed rules like this to bully us!"
The Fire Dragon King was furious, practically exploding with rage. He knew that few pure-blooded dragons remained, and the Beast race was being oppressed and barred from godhood, while the Silver Dragon King and the others could only struggle on. The thought sent his anger surging even higher.
"Still, there's hope. With Medicine Elder's help, we now have a chance to fight back against the Divine Realm."
"Medicine Elder?" x2
"Yes," Di Tian said firmly.
"Tell us in detail. Who is this person?"
"Yes." Di Tian then told them about Medicine Elder and the Phoenix King.
"Looks like we still have another hope. But now all we have left are our corpses and our reincarnations, so we can't help you. Let the Silver Dragon King know and have her move the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well. For now, we'll enter your spiritual world."
"Yes."
After saying this, the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings entered Di Tian's spiritual world—his mind.
Di Tian immediately contacted the Silver Dragon King.
"My lord, just as you said, I've found it."
"Good," the Silver Dragon King replied at once.
"But I've taken two humans as slaves. I don't know if they'll be useful."
"??? Explain what happened."
"Here's what happened..." Di Tian then recounted the whole process.
"I see. Then keep them. They'll be quite useful when you deal with humans."
"Yes."
"I'll head over now and move the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well to Star Dou Forest with Medicine Elder and the others. We absolutely can't let the humans get it."
"Yes."
"Grandpa." Dugu Yan was beginning to feel afraid, and she couldn't help worrying about what would become of her.
She was also worried about what would happen to her grandfather. Though they had sworn an oath, there was no guarantee Di Tian would spare them.
"We can only entrust our hopes to fate. I want to live, too, but we have no way to fight back. He's far stronger than us. You can only blame your useless grandpa for never becoming strong enough to protect you."
Dugu Bo was truly beginning to regret it. If he'd known this place held so many Immortal Herbs, he should never have come. He should have picked them all, then found someone who understood Immortal Herbs to use them for treatment. He shouldn't have coveted the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.
"This isn't your fault, Grandpa. We were just unlucky enough to run into someone this powerful. But now that I think about it, I'm curious why someone like him exists. I've never heard of a Soul Beast Transformation expert this strong. And if Tang San and Xiao Wu had been in danger back then, as a Soul Beast Transformation expert, he would have helped them, wouldn't he?"
"Why didn't we run into a Soul Beast expert like him in our previous life?"
Dugu Bo looked just as bewildered. "Why didn't we run into him in our previous life?"
"I don't know either. In any case, we'd better not offend him, or the consequences will be serious. We're far too weak compared to him."
Just then, Di Tian walked over.
He had come out of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.
"I'll move the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well soon. You'll come with me to Star Dou Forest. As long as you obey, I won't take your lives."
"Yes!" x2
Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan didn't dare say a thing. They were no match for Di Tian, so they could only obey. After hearing what he said, they had no choice but to do as they were told.
The two of them didn't dare say anything. They were far too weak compared to him, so they could only obey.
Otherwise, they would be doomed.
"Medicine Elder, I'll have to trouble you to come with me. I've found the bones of my kin. The Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well lies over the place where they're buried—the resting place of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings."
"Understood. Don't worry, I'll go with you. With me there, you have nothing to fear."
"But I really am grateful to you, Medicine Elder. My injuries have improved so much. Without your help, they would have taken much longer to heal."
Gu Yuena truly was grateful to Medicine Elder. Without his help, the injuries inflicted by Asura God would have taken much longer to heal.
"Then let's hurry and move the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well."
The Phoenix King was already itching to move the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well. That would be as good as crippling Tang San. Without the Immortal Herbs, Tang San's future would be ruined. Once he was crippled, dealing with the Divine Realm would be much easier.
"Little Fengfeng, once we get the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, there'll be heaps of Immortal Herbs for you to use. Then your big sister and you can have some fun together."
Gu Yuena was getting playful, hinting that they could enjoy some games together in bed later.
"Enough, don't tease him. My disciple isn't an adult yet. We can talk about that once he's grown up."
Medicine Elder was speechless. The Silver Dragon King really was "silver"!
"Then let's get going."
Gu Yuena stopped joking, and the three of them set off.
They headed straight for the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well at top speed.
