Seeing Dugu Yan like this, Bai Xiao could not bear to disturb her and quietly waited for her to finish crying.

After a while, Dugu Yan stopped crying and glared at Bai Xiao with red-rimmed eyes. "It's all your fault, you jerk! You made me cry so hard!"

Bai Xiao: "?" As a straight-laced guy, Bai Xiao clearly could not keep up with Dugu Yan's train of thought. But what could he do? Girls' thoughts were simply that extraordinary! ←_←

Seeing Bai Xinghe like this, Dugu Yan opened her mouth to call him an idiot, only to be interrupted by Dugu Bo, who could not stand watching any longer. "Xinghe, how exactly do you plan to cure my granddaughter and me?"

At that moment, Bai Xiao seemed to transform into "Bai Sherlock Xiao." "When I first met you, I noticed that the toxins in your body had accumulated to a severe degree. Yet you could still stand here, which meant the poison in your body had been suppressed. Yan'er previously mentioned that you had a medicinal garden. Combined with the scent of several Immortal Herbs on you, I could confirm that your so-called medicinal garden was a rare treasure of this world. It suppressed the toxins in your body, which was why you had not yet been corroded to death by the poison. Therefore, to detoxify you, Senior, I need the Immortal Herbs from your medicinal garden!"

No sooner had Bai Xiao finished than he saw Dugu Bo frown slightly. Bai Xiao's heart skipped a beat, and he sensed that something was wrong. "Brat, you're still calling me Senior!" Dugu Bo said.

That twist nearly threw Bai Xiao's back out. Wasn't Dugu Bo focusing on the wrong thing here? Though Bai Xiao grumbled inwardly, he still said with an obedient, affectionate smile, "Grandpa, how does that sound?"

Having heard the answer he wanted, Dugu Bo's expression immediately changed. He said amiably, "Forget borrowing the Immortal Herbs—so what if I gave you the entire medicinal garden?" Yet inwardly, he schemed craftily, Even if I give it to you, would you really have the nerve to take something from your elder?

"Okay, thank you, Grandpa. If you use my Immortal Herbs in the future, you'll have to report it to me," Bai Xiao hurriedly said upon hearing that Dugu Bo wanted to give him the medicinal garden.

Dugu Bo froze on the spot after hearing that. "Heh, you're quite self-aware, aren't you?" he said sarcastically.

Bai Xiao was confused too. Was Dugu Bo giving it to him or not?

Seeing that the two had thoroughly embarrassed each other, Dugu Yan hurriedly mediated. "Grandpa, Xinghe, stop fooling around. The important thing is to let Xinghe treat us!"

Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo slapped his forehead. "I nearly forgot the important matter. Xinghe, hurry and come with me to the medicinal garden so we can handle the real business!"

Bai Xiao: "So I was the one fooling around just now?" He could only blame his weakness. Saying nothing and thinking nothing, he was lifted up by Dugu Bo with one hand.

And so, Dugu Bo held his granddaughter in one arm and carried Bai Xiao by the back of his collar in the other as he flew through the air toward the medicinal garden.

Before long, they had passed through the poisonous miasma and arrived at the medicinal garden. After landing, Dugu Bo looked at the disheveled Bai Xiao, the result of his handiwork, and could not help letting out a pig-like laugh.

To get a little revenge on his future grandson-in-law for being so self-aware, Dugu Bo had deliberately let in a bit of wind while flying. That little bit of wind left Bai Xiao chilled to the bone and soaring in spirit.

Seeing Bai Xiao's pitiful appearance, Dugu Yan's heart ached. She hurriedly began tidying him up, and, eager to defend her husband, she scolded Dugu Bo. "Grandpa, how could you treat Xinghe like that?"

Dugu Yan gently "rescued" Bai Xiao, removing leaves and twigs from his hair and wiping his face. When Dugu Bo saw this scene, an auntie-like smile appeared on his face.

Even clever Bai Xiao could not tell whether he had lost out or come out ahead.

The farce gradually came to an end, and Bai Xiao and Dugu Yan followed Dugu Bo into Douluo Continent's treasured land—the Icefire Yin Yang Well.
