A Man Who Knows the Times, Duan Yu

Dugu Bo was somewhat shocked by his words, but he waved a hand and said:

"As long as you can save Yan Yan, this old man will already be satisfied. As for the poison in my body, cure it if you can. If not, it doesn't matter."

"This old man is a Title Douluo, after all. This poison won't kill me..."

"Alright." Duan Yu nodded.

Of course, he knew Dugu Bo did not believe he could cure his poison.

That was nothing unusual. After all, let alone a powerhouse at the level of a Title Douluo, even ordinary people would not entrust their lives to a stranger.

"Senior Dugu, to cure Sister Yan's poison, I'll need to help personally, but we'll also need to find a treasured land where ice and fire coexist."

"What did you say?"

Dugu Bo had been about to leave, but the instant he heard the words "a treasured land where ice and fire coexist," his expression changed abruptly.

"That place you mentioned, where ice and fire coexist—do you know where it is?"

Duan Yu paused, as if he truly did not understand why Dugu Bo was so agitated.

"Through my perception of space, I can sense that the treasured land is within Sunset Forest."

"But because my soul power is ultimately still too weak, I can't deduce its exact location."

Dugu Bo froze upon hearing this. As he looked at Duan Yu, his expression was indescribably complicated.

Sensing Dugu Bo's hesitation, Duan Yu continued:

"This junior knows that I won't be able to deduce the precise location on my own in a short time, which is why I came to Senior Dugu."

"Senior Dugu has lived in Sunset Forest for so long. Do you happen to know where that place where ice and fire coexist is?"

Dugu Bo remained silent for a long while. Only after some time did he finally speak.

"Kid, are you sure that finding that place where ice and fire coexist will save Yan Yan? How confident are you?"

"One hundred percent!"

Duan Yu patted his chest and vowed, "As long as this junior can find that place where ice and fire coexist, Sister Yan's poison will definitely be resolved."

"Even some of Senior Dugu's poison can be drawn out. It's just that..."

"Just what?"

Duan Yu changed his tone. "It's just that although I can't sense its exact aura, this junior can tell that the place where ice and fire coexist already has an owner."

Dugu Bo gave him a strange look. It had an owner? His guess was indeed correct—it already had an owner.

Although he did not want this brat in front of him entering his treasured land, when Dugu Bo thought of his Yan Yan, he still decided to take a step back.

"Let's go."

"Huh?"

Pretending not to understand, Duan Yu continued playing dumb. "Where is Senior Dugu taking me?"

Dugu Bo snapped irritably, "I'm taking you to that place where ice and fire coexist."

Duan Yu covered his mouth in disbelief. "What is Senior Dugu saying? This junior only just mentioned it, and Senior Dugu has already found it?"

"But what if that treasured land really has an owner? Wouldn't we be breaking into someone's home?"

Dugu Bo was infuriated by this little bastard and finally lost his patience.

"What breaking into someone's home? That treasured land belongs to this old man."

"What?"

Duan Yu was instantly startled. "It actually belongs to Senior Dugu? This junior truly hadn't expected that."

"No wonder this junior couldn't determine its precise location. So the mighty power of a Title Douluo had blocked it off."

"Heh, of course."

Dugu Bo lifted his head. "Even if it didn't belong to this old man, as long as this old man went there, it could only belong to this old man."

Duan Yu: "...Damn, that's domineering. Just like a bandit."

However, Duan Yu's expression did not change. He continued flattering Dugu Bo from time to time, sweet-talking the little old man until he was practically floating.

After speaking with Dugu Yan and sending her back to Tiandou Royal Academy,

Duan Yu finally followed Dugu Bo to a hidden cave amid dense woods in Sunset Forest.

Looking at the thick forest before him, Duan Yu could not help asking:

"Senior Dugu, is this the place where ice and fire coexist?"

"Kid, are you daydreaming?"

Dugu Bo sneered. "If it were that easy to find, then anyone could find this treasured land whenever they wanted."

As he spoke, Dugu Bo activated his soul power. The dense forest before them opened up, and after it did, he grabbed Duan Yu and headed toward the exit.

Once they left the cave, Duan Yu was stunned to find a mountain peak appearing before them.

This time, Dugu Bo did not bring him along. Instead, he made Duan Yu climb by himself, seemingly intending to judge whether he had the strength to cross these steep peaks.

Duan Yu smiled. An ordinary Soul Venerable might have found it difficult.

But his martial soul was the Spatial Dragon King, which wielded the authority of space. How could such obstacles trouble him?

Sure enough, under Dugu Bo's gaze, silver light flashed around Duan Yu's body, and he caught up in an instant.

Upon reaching their destination, Duan Yu saw layer upon layer of poisonous miasma surrounding the Icefire Yin Yang Well. He looked at Dugu Bo with a strange expression.

This old man really knew how to hide things.

The poisonous miasma around the Icefire Yin Yang Well had already made it sufficiently concealed, yet this old man had worried about others discovering it and deliberately set up even more poisonous miasma to keep outsiders beyond the mountains.

Duan Yu had just been about to use spatial displacement to enter directly when he discovered, as he shifted space, that this area of space had been sealed.

Duan Yu frowned and looked at Dugu Bo.

Dugu Bo had already gone inside. He stood there with a smile, watching him from within.

"Kid, why aren't you coming in yet? It would be rude not to come in."

Duan Yu was so angry that he laughed. Gritting his teeth, he said, "Don't worry, this junior is coming in right now."

As his words fell, Duan Yu released his Spatial Dragon King martial soul. Countless flashes of silver light passed over him, making his body turn illusory.

Then, under Dugu Bo's stunned gaze, he simply walked straight in, treating the poisonous miasma outside as if it did not exist.

"Senior Dugu, we can go now."

Duan Yu looked at the still-dazed Dugu Bo and reminded him with a smile.

"Why isn't Senior leaving? Were you born not liking to walk?"

"Damn it, what kind of little monster is this? Such a bizarre ability." Dugu Bo cursed inwardly and hurried after him.

The moment Duan Yu entered, before he had even reached the interior of the Icefire Yin Yang Well, Immortal Herbs already carpeted the ground along the way.

This place was damn rich!

The farther Duan Yu went, the more he could feel the water vapor within the Icefire Yin Yang Well.

When he finally entered for real, Duan Yu could no longer suppress the excitement in his heart. Looking at the pile of Ten-Thousand-Year Immortal Herbs near the Icefire Yin Yang Well, he wanted nothing more than to pull them all out immediately.

"Hey, kid."

Seeing Duan Yu looking as though he had never seen the world, Dugu Bo said disdainfully:

"Look at how pathetic you are. Is there any need to get so excited? As expected of someone from the countryside—you've never seen anything good."

"You're the one from the countryside. You have such a spiritually blessed treasure land, yet you still managed to poison yourself this badly. You're truly beyond saving."

At Duan Yu's words, Dugu Bo's gaze immediately turned cold. "Kid, what did you just say?"

Duan Yu had been pressured by Dugu Bo all the way here. Finally, he abruptly stood up and met Dugu Bo's gaze.

"Fine, Dugu Bo. I'll tell you exactly what I just said..."

"Hm?" Dugu Bo smiled at him as his pressure surged forth once more.

Seeing this, Duan Yu immediately changed the words that were about to leave his mouth. He smiled and said:

"I said I'm preparing the materials to detoxify Sister Yan right now."
