The Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire

Chapter 37 The Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire

Because Gu Yuena's original body was too large, even slightly exceeding the size of the valley, her figure gradually shrank during the descent, eventually transforming back into human form. Holding a loli in each hand, she passed through the poisonous fog and arrived on the ground.

"Pah, pah, pah, you big fat dragon, what kind of landing is that?" Yinlan muttered as she broke free from Gu Yuena's embrace and landed on the ground. "Couldn't you have used a more comfortable method? I even went out of my way to bring you here!"

"It's because this place is too small," Gu Yuena muttered under her breath. "I didn't even notice when we were flying, the mountains next to us aren't even as tall as me... Next time I'll use wind element to carry you!"

"You little bastard!" Yinlan lifted the little girl's mother down from Gu Yuena's other arm.

The valley below came into view, the most striking feature being the oval-shaped hot spring not far away. The water was divided into two distinct sections: milky white and vermilion. One section exuded a chilling aura, while the other emitted a scorching heat. The two pooled together in the same area, yet they did not encroach on each other, always remaining on their own sides.

Around this extraordinary hot spring, various exotic flowers and plants grow lushly, each with its own unique characteristics just by looking at them.

only……

"I didn't expect you to know about such a treasure trove," Gu Yuena sighed. She knew Yin Lan meant well, but to avoid hurting the little girl's fragile heart, she still said somewhat tactfully, "It's just that these kinds of flowers and plants probably won't have any significant effect on my injuries."

The little girl's mother, however, had just been helped to the ground by Yinlan when she immediately tripped and fell flat on her face, her cheeks flushed an unnatural red, as if she were drunk. She collapsed to the ground, muttering, "My child... the air here... is so refreshing... so comfortable..."

Seeing this, Yinlan reached out and poked the little girl's mother. Seeing that she seemed to be alright, he simply let her lie on the ground and left her alone. Then he rolled his eyes at Gu Yuena and said, "Those flowers and plants around here weren't meant for you to eat. They're mine. What's under this hot spring is my reward to you."

"Hmm?" Gu Yuena raised an eyebrow, subconsciously glancing at the strange pool not far away. "Is there something down there?"

Just as she was about to step closer, Yinlan stopped her.

"Wait a minute," Yinlan grabbed her, "There's one more thing to take care of before that. This place is now owned."

"Is it the venom of the Azure Phosphorus Serpent?" Gu Yuena immediately thought of the poisonous mist that surrounded the valley above, and immediately activated her mental power to cover the entire valley.

Then, she paused for a moment, looking at the pool not far away with an incredulous expression. It took her a while to look away and instead look at a hill not far away.

"There are people up there, what do you mean?" She forced down her sense of urgency and asked Yinlan.

Did she sense the Dragon King's corpse beneath the hot pot? It's quite remarkable that she managed to suppress that impulse... Yinlan knew that this meant she had gained some weight in the other person's heart, which was why Gu Yuena chose to ask for her opinion first.

"Don't worry, it'll be over soon. Let's deal with that person first," Yinlan said, pulling Gu Yuena's hand gently. "You'll have plenty of time then. I don't want you to get killed in a confused way while you're catching up with old friends down there."

This place is the precious medicinal garden of angel investor Dugu Bo. The person on that hill should also be him. If we don't deal with Dugu Bo's matter in advance, what if Dugu Bo comes to kill us? I don't know if my little mother, who is the Blue Silver Emperor, will be in trouble, but she will definitely be finished.

Dugu Bo is known for being able to defeat even a Title Douluo, but he can defeat you until you're reduced to just a Title Douluo.

"Alright." Gu Yuena used wind element to swirl around Yin Lan, took off into the air, and flew towards the hill she sensed.

............................................................

On the hilltop, there is a cave that is clearly man-made. Inside the cave, there is a stone table, a stone bed, and all kinds of tea sets and cups. It is a perfect place to take a break and enjoy the beautiful scenery below.

But at this very moment, on that stone bed, sat a hunched old man with his legs crossed.

The old man was dressed in a dark green robe, and his hair, eyebrows, and entire body were green. His eyes were closed, his brows were furrowed, and sweat kept seeping from his forehead. His clothes were also clinging to his body because of the sweat, as if he was enduring some kind of torment.

"Oh, a little poisonous insect," a tall, silver-haired woman descended from the sky with a black-haired girl. She took a few steps into the cave, and the silver-haired woman casually glanced at the old man with her purple eyes, immediately concluding, "He's a little poisonous insect who poisoned himself."

...Who...person...?!

The old man on the stone bed twitched his eyelids slightly. He sensed the uninvited guest in the cave, but at this moment he was suffering from the effects of the poison and was in the most difficult time. He could hardly concentrate and could not even muster the slightest effort to open his eyes.

"Don't worry, I'll end your suffering right away." Gu Yuena raised her right hand, and the Silver Dragon Spear was immediately summoned, aimed at the old man, and was about to stab him.

No…no! I…I can’t die here! If I die here…Yanyan…what will happen to Yanyan…

The old man's brows furrowed, and a ferocious expression appeared on his face as if he were struggling. In a moment of carelessness, the deadly poison gnawed at his body, and he suddenly spat out a mouthful of greenish-black blood, which dripped onto his clothes, the stone bed, and the ground, making a hissing sound as it continued to corrode him.

"Wait, Fatty Dragon! Spare her life!" Yin Lan looked up and saw Gu Yuena about to make her move, so she hurriedly shouted, "Why are you attacking so suddenly! Wait a minute!"

Gu Yuena paused, her silver dragon spear, which had been thrust forward, stopped abruptly. She withdrew her attack and looked at Yin Lan with some surprise.

The latest novel is first published here!

As the pressure on the stone bed eased, the poison in his body became active again, causing him to spit out another mouthful of poisonous blood, roll off the stone bed, and collapse to the ground.

"Oh my god!" Yinlan hurriedly grabbed Gu Yuena, "Big Fat Dragon, quickly help him suppress the poison, I still need him!"

Gu Yuena took two deep breaths, rubbed her forehead as if she didn't know what to say, and then reached out to Dugu Bo on the ground. The water element in the air quickly condensed, then rapidly cooled down, forming ice crystals that gradually enveloped Dugu Bo's body.

As he lay unconscious on the ground, Dugu Bo struggled to open his eyes and memorized the figure of the little girl with a worried expression not far away. He silently mouthed the words to her.

"Thank you... for your help..."

Some people have mentioned that the main storyline is progressing slowly. Let me explain: you'll be getting into the main storyline soon. My goal is to reach the Soul Saint level with dual Soul Cores and a Limitless Soul Ring at age 12. Right now, I'm in the resource gathering phase. I plan to collect everything I can by age six, so that this achievement will be reasonable when I'm 12. At that time, everyone will be able to immediately see what the protagonist's abilities are, what the effects are, and how they were obtained, just like with the current hot pot.

By the way, let me reply to that bizarre comment in the comments section, saying that even if the Spirit Hall doesn't help with awakening for free, other sects will help with it, and that because martial arts sects need to recruit new disciples, picking up geniuses is a win.

Can you stop joking? The so-called sects in Douluo Continent are actually just families. Do you even know what a family is? Guess how the Tang Sect collapsed in Douluo Continent II?

Do you really think this is a martial arts story? In Douluo Continent 1, besides Qibao and the Spirit Hall, which family would be willing to take in geniuses from other races? In the original work, only Qibao and the Spirit Hall were normal sects. Qibao did this because they would be crushed if they didn't take in outsiders.

And you even said that the Spirit Hall is just an ordinary martial arts sect in the Jianghu. In the first game, there were more than 90,000 Spirit Masters in total, more than 70,000 of whom were from the Spirit Hall, and the rest were from other forces combined. You haven't even read the second game, you haven't even read the original first game. You've already talked about this to death, you know?

The way these Tang Sect disciples are trying to whitewash their image is quite unique. They either make up their own settings or spout nonsense, and it's full of loopholes. To be honest, I'm too lazy to reply to each and every one of them, because I've encountered quite a few before and have had my share of arguments with them. I'm tired of arguing with them over the years (laughs).
