"This is the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well." Medicine Elder looked toward the place where the remains of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings lay.
"Teacher." Phoenix King looked at Medicine Elder. With the vast number of Immortal Herbs here, and now with Medicine Elder's assistance, he truly could not see how he could lose to Tang San and the others.
Could it be that Tang San was also a reincarnator?
Ridiculous!
"These two humans are the new slaves I've taken." Di Tian looked at the grandfather and granddaughter, Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan. He did not consider them important figures at all, viewing them merely as slaves.
In the eyes of this Beast God, the only human worthy of his respect was Medicine Elder, for it was Medicine Elder who helped the Soul Beasts slowly break through their predicament.
As for other humans, he saw no need to respect them.
As for Phoenix King, in his eyes, he was a Heavenly Demon Phoenix.
He was a super magical beast from another world! A descendant of the phoenix.
Moreover, Di Tian did not know that Phoenix King had been a human in his past life. Even if he had been, so what? The current Phoenix King was a magical beast, and that did not affect their relationship.
"An Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well formed by the remains of two beast-race creatures that fell into this world before reaching their cave—it certainly possesses the ability to cultivate many excellent medicinal herbs. It is passable when placed on the Douluo Continent, but it would be quite lackluster on the Dou Qi Continent."
Medicine Elder looked at the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well and acknowledged that while it was indeed a treasure land on the Douluo Continent, it would not be much on the Dou Qi Continent.
"Dou Qi Continent?" Dugu Bo did not quite understand when he heard this name. Did a place called the Dou Qi Continent exist in this world?
Dugu Bo had spent his entire life on the Douluo Continent. Even in his previous life, he had never left it. Dugu Bo had not even heard of the Sun Moon Continent, so how could he possibly know about the Dou Qi Continent from another world?
"Grandfather..." Dugu Yan looked at Di Tian and the others in fear at this moment, terrified that these people would simply finish off her and her grandfather.
Dugu Yan actually had many things she wanted to say, but the problem was that she dared not speak.
"Hurry and relocate this Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well now; we absolutely cannot let humans obtain it." Gu Yuena then prepared to take action.
"Di Tian, these two humans are the slaves you took in, right?"
At this moment, Phoenix King looked at Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan. In his past life, he had watched the Douluo Continent and had a certain fondness for people like Dugu Bo, who could be said to be wholeheartedly devoted to his friends.
Back in Spirit Hall, when Tang San encountered difficulties, it was Dugu Bo who stepped in to help.
If Dugu Bo had not intervened, Tang San might not have been able to hold out until Tang Hao arrived.
"Yes! Mistress! These two humans are the new slaves I have taken. The old one has the strength of a Title Douluo; although his combat power is not strong, he is quite useful for dealing with cannon fodder. But this young one has no real ability." Di Tian also viewed Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan from his own perspective.
Dugu Bo had some use; this was indeed reasonable in his eyes.
After all, Dugu Bo was a Title Douluo, but his granddaughter, Dugu Yan, did not possess much combat power, so Di Tian did not have any favorable impression of her.
"Teacher, what is your opinion of these two?" Phoenix King looked at Medicine Elder at this moment. Although he had some authority now, the problem was that he dared not speak recklessly; after all, his current physical age was still too young, and he did not have much say.
"Let them stay; they might come in handy later." Medicine Elder also looked at Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan. He felt pity for the grandfather and granddaughter, so he chose to leave a path for others, making it easier to meet again in the future.
"Grandfather, why does that person who looks like he has no legs give me such a bad feeling?"
"Don't speak, or you will die."
I could also tell at this moment: if Medicine Elder lacked strength, how could he possibly make a monster like Di Tian respect him?
Moreover, this mysterious silver-haired woman, Gu Yuena, although she did not seem to possess the aura of a powerhouse, the fact that she could make a powerhouse like Di Tian bow and scrape meant she must be very strong.
Dugu Bo had lived until now and possessed a certain level of shrewdness; he knew who could be offended and who could not.
However, he would sometimes act foolishly, such as in the matter of Tang San. As long as it involved Tang San, Dugu Bo would help with all his might, yet Tang San did not repay him in the end.
The conversation between Dugu Bo and his granddaughter Dugu Yan was overheard by them, but they did not care.
Soon after, the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well was relocated to the Star Dou Forest.
Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan were settled outside the Star Dou Forest and were not allowed to leave at will.
Only when there was a matter at hand could the Dugu family be summoned inside.
Not long after, Dugu Yan was called to Medicine Elder's side and entered the Lake of Life.
"May I ask what this lord requires?" Dugu Yan said fearfully at this moment, looking at Medicine Elder with dread.
"Don't be nervous, little girl. I won't kill you. I just want you to accompany me in an experiment. I want to understand why martial souls obtain spirit rings after hunting Soul Beasts. What is the principle? I want to study it."
"What?" After hearing Medicine Elder say this, Dugu Yan suspected that his question was a bit silly. Did it have any meaning?
In the eyes of the people of the Douluo Continent, this question was meaningless. No one would ever think about it—anyway, as long as one hunted Soul Beasts, humans could obtain spirit rings and spirit skills. Did that not suffice?
"Little girl, as long as you are willing to help with this favor, I will give you a generous reward."
"...No need. As long as you promise not to kill me and my grandfather, anything will do."
Dugu Yan was also a person who had lived two lives; she understood that sometimes one should not think too highly of others. Take Tang San, for example: Dugu Bo was so good to him, yet it resulted in the sacrifice of the entire Dugu family, leaving them without descendants.
Therefore, in Dugu Yan's view, these people were not necessarily trustworthy. They might be the same type of people as Tang San, so no matter what, she should not easily believe what they said. Self-preservation was what mattered.
Dugu Yan did not harbor hopes of her family getting back the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well; as long as they could survive, that was enough.
Now that the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well had been moved here, what could they possibly do? The people here were all Soul Beast bigwigs; they could not afford to offend them.
"Rest assured, I am not a bad person. As long as you cooperate with my tests, you will receive a reward. First, let me see your spirit rings."
"Alright." Dugu Yan then began to reveal her spirit rings: two yellow ones, basically yellow spirit rings within a hundred years.
"So this is a yellow spirit ring. By hunting Soul Beasts and imprisoning them within the martial soul, it really is somewhat deformed... and the spirit skills obtained are also mostly related to the Soul Beasts. But why does hunting Soul Beasts allow one to obtain a spirit ring? I must research this in more detail; I will need materials."
