Inside the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

Lin En urged Dugu Bo, "Old Poisoner, don't be stingy, hurry up and drop some gold coins. I'm short of a storage bag for living creatures, hehe..."

Dugu Bo rolled his eyes. "I knew you were thinking about this! I've got it ready for you!"

"Also, here's a Nine-Section Jade amulet for you. It's of little use to me, but it's perfect for your self-defense!"

Lin En took the Ruyi Hundred Treasure Pouch and opened it as if it were a priceless treasure. A small emerald snake slowly emerged.

After the blood test, the Nine-Section Jade slowly crawled onto his wrist, Bingbing and refreshing – a perfect weapon for self-defense!

"Thanks, old poisoner!"

Lin En laughed heartily, "Not bad, not bad. Although with his current strength, he's already strong enough to go toe-to-toe with Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast."

But having such a little family member is not bad, at least I won't feel lonely in the future!

Dugu Bo remained silent. "When have you ever been polite?"

"Haha, isn't this how I treat you as a friend? Why be so polite between friends? It'll make us seem distant!"

Lin En chuckled softly.

"That's true. How about we become friends despite the age gap? To be honest, your personality is quite to my liking!"

Dugu Bo also burst into laughter, walked over, and patted him on the shoulder.

"Sure, let's get together properly another day!"

Without a second thought, Lin En agreed immediately. With a Titled Douluo as his backer, he would at least no longer have to worry about being threatened!

"Alright, alright, it's settled then. I'll throw a big banquet at my residence another day to celebrate my breakthrough in Soul Power, and you absolutely have to come!"

Dugu Bo smiled slyly, a faint glint of cunning in his eyes.

"No problem, but old poison master, I really have to go. If I stay any longer, the dean will definitely expel me!"

Lin En shook her head.

Only then did he realize that the exchange competition had already started, and that he had disappeared on the first day.

But after thinking about it, I didn't pay much attention to it.

In previous years, Shui Bing'er always led the team, so whether I went or not didn't make much of a difference.

He originally wanted to show off and let Heavenly Water shine, but he ran into Dugu Yan. Faced with Immortal Herb and showing off, he still knew his place.

"Haha, what are you afraid of? At worst, you can just leave. I guarantee you'll be admitted to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy without taking the entrance exam!"

Dugu Bo laughed heartily, clearly pleased with the outcome.

"Forget it, I'm quite comfortable in Heavenly Water. The environment there is great, and the senior and junior students are beautiful with lovely voices. I wouldn't trade them for the throne!"

Lin En said in a very serious tone.

I got in through my own merit; you think I can just walk away? No way!

He's set his sights on that snow-white girl!

"You little rascal, you're quite the ladies' man. Don't you know that lust can be a double-edged sword?"

Dugu Bo looked at him with disdain. "Pah, he has no shame!"

"You old poisoner, what do you know? A man is a boy until he dies. Everyone else is just pretending to be virtuous, but I'm different. I'm open and aboveboard!"

Lin En said shamelessly.

"You're quite self-aware..."

Dugu Bo's face twitched, and he was so angry that his mouth twisted into a crook. He really had no shame!

In Douluo, people like mature women. We don't say they're into mature women; we say:

New willow buds, untouched by dust, and delicate, innocent words reveal childlike wonder.

Her smile is like a spring stream melting winter snow; her steps are like a willow swaying gently in springtime.

She was a graceful young woman of thirteen or so, like a budding cardamom flower in early February.

Half a lifetime of trials and tribulations have turned my temples gray, yet I still cherish the tiny buds of the sunflower.

But Lin En was different; he wanted it all!

A beautiful woman is like fine wine, becoming more fragrant and mellow with age; similarly, a rose doesn't need to grow tall, for its lover will naturally bend down!

Dugu Bo angrily blew on his beard and left, afraid that if he stayed any longer, he would be driven to his death by Lin En's anger.

Lin En didn't pay any attention, looking at the giant Immortal Herb in the Yuan Yang Pot, her face dripping with happy drool.

Oh my god, it's all my blood!

Then, he happily activated the one-click sweep mode, and wherever he went, he picked almost all the Immortal Herb except for leaving a few roots behind!

After picking a bunch of things, the Yuan Yang Pot was a complete mess!

When Dugu Bo returned with Dugu Yan, he saw the ground inside the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well that looked like it had been chewed by a dog, and immediately let out a pig-like scream.

"Damn it, what have you done to my herb garden?"

Dugu Bo grabbed Lin En's collar, shook his body frantically, and said in a hoarse voice.

"Ahem, I was just trying to lighten your load by making your herb garden a little more spacious, right?"

Lin En gave an awkward smile, but his expression betrayed his true feelings.

"Damn it, do I need you to clean this up for me?"

Dugu Bo's face twitched immediately, but considering that Lin En had resolved the poison and evolved the Martial Soul for him and Yanyan, he didn't hold it against him.

"My herb garden, my herb garden... it's ruined!"

Dugu Bo squatted to the side, drawing circles. Despite being an old man with white hair, he still looked like a child.

Lin En coughed awkwardly a few times, then stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder:

"Old poisoner, out with the old, in with the new. With your abilities, I believe you'll recover quickly. I believe in you!"

"Get lost! Just looking at you annoys me. I've spent over a decade building this place!"

Dugu Bo looked somewhat troubled; he was now extremely regretful for giving the Ruyi Hundred Treasure Pouch to Lin En.

This kid really doesn't act like he's part of the family!

They always grab the best food and put it all in their own bowl...

Lin En: Of course! It's already in my mouth, how could I not eat it?

Wouldn't that make me an idiot?

Pfft--

"Grandpa, how old are you? You still act like a child!"

Seeing this, Dugu Yan couldn't help but chuckle. This scene was really hard to keep up!

Dugu Bo stood up, looking at his little darling who was siding with outsiders, and was immediately furious.

"Yanyan, which side are you on?" Dugu Bo asked helplessly.

"I'm not taking sides. All I know is that our Martial Soul Evolution, and we have Lin En's help to prove it!"

Dugu Yan smiled brightly, feeling exceptionally happy.

In her opinion, there was nothing more joyful than the Martial Soul Evolution; a mere herb garden, once gone, was gone too!

Anyway, with Grandpa's skills, it can still be repaired.

"Yes, yes, look how sensible your granddaughter is. You old devil, don't be so petty. Besides, you're not losing out, are you?"

Lin En chuckled.

"Hmph, consider it a debt our Dugu Family owes you, so we won't hold it against you!"

Dugu Bo gave a soft snort.

"Alright, it's about time, I have to go!"

Lin En, seeing that he had made a profit, prepared to withdraw his millions.

"Wait, why don't you go back with Yanyan? The people from the Skywater Academy are also in Heaven Dou City now, so you can look out for each other."

"OK!"

Lin En thought about it for a moment, but didn't pay much attention to it.

Since we're going back to Heaven Dou anyway, let's go together. It'll be a good way to relax on the way!
