Chapter 35: Bibi Dong Must Not Know

Yue Guan felt unbelievable.

Even he and Guimei were timid in front of Bibi Dong and did not dare to hide anything, but Yan actually dared to say such words.

"Yan, are you looking for death? This matter is very serious. You are so bold as to hide it from His Holiness the Pope!"

Yan remained calm.

"Elder Ju, I have my reasons for doing this."

"What's the reason? Tell me."

Yue Guan was both confused and curious.

Yan then explained:
“There are hundreds of thousands of immortal herbs in the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire, some of which have not yet taken shape. Dugu Bo has always regarded them as treasures and has carefully protected them.

If the Pope knew about the existence of that precious land and sent someone to take it over, do you think Dugu Bo would give it up given his character? "

Yue Guan seemed to be thinking about something. Before he could answer, Yan continued:

"No! He won't. He will fight to the death with the Spirit Hall and destroy all those immortal herbs in the most extreme way, leaving not a single one behind! I think not only him, but anyone would do the same.

Besides, the existence of the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire is only known to Dugu Bo and you and me. If it is taken over by the Spirit Hall, it will be known to everyone. By then, that piece of precious land will be coveted by countless powerful people.

Looking across the entire Douluo Continent, how many people can love and cherish flowers as much as you do?
I am afraid that by then, that piece of precious land with unique advantages will be trampled beyond recognition by plunderers, or even completely destroyed.

I guess you don’t want to see that happen, do you?”

Just now, Yan's vivid description of the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire and the magical herbs around them made Yue Guan extremely yearning for it. He wished he could fly over immediately to see the true appearance of those magical herbs.

Thinking of the rare flowers and plants in that mysterious treasure land being destroyed beyond recognition by those brutal plunderers, his heart ached as if it were being cut by a knife.

Yan could have hidden the existence of the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire from him, but he chose to trust him and told him everything without reservation.

This moved him somewhat.

He knew that Yan was not someone who gave up easily and must have other ideas.

"Yan, we can't just watch the old poisonous creature occupy that fairy garden all by himself, right?"

"Of course not. Since he likes to grow flowers and is pretty good at it, let him take care of them for us first. Anyway, I have picked the few top-quality immortal herbs in there."

"??"

Just when Yue Guan was confused, Yan took out the Wanling Treasure Gate that Yue Guan had given him from the soul guide on his waist.

"Elder Ju, look."

As Yan spoke, he took out the strange chrysanthemum from the Wanling Treasure Gate.

Yue Guan's originally confused expression was immediately replaced by an indescribable shock the moment Yan took out the strange chrysanthemum.

His eyes widened, his gaze fixed on the magic grass in Yan's hand.

The strange chrysanthemum was flashing an alluring golden light before his eyes.

His body leaned forward unconsciously, his hands trembling slightly as he wanted to touch the strange chrysanthemum.

Shock, joy, disbelief and many other emotions were intertwined on his face.

At this moment, he had thousands of words in his heart, but he didn't know what to say.

"This... is this the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum?"

Yue Guan was extremely excited, his hands were still shaking like his voice.

Yan smiled and placed the strange chrysanthemum in Yue Guan's hand.

"Elder Ju, it's yours now."

Yue Guan carefully took the strange chrysanthemum, as if he was holding a rare treasure.

His fingers touched it gently, feeling the surging vitality.

Tears in his eyes flashed involuntarily, and he said in a choked voice:

"This... this is really a strange chrysanthemum."

Yue Guan's heart was filled with gratitude and emotion, as he knew the value of this strange chrysanthemum. It took him a long time to recover from his excitement.

"Yan, was this strange chrysanthemum picked from the Yin-Yang Eye of Fire and Ice?"

"Ah."

"Then did you pick other magical herbs?"

"Yes."

Yan didn't intend to hide anything from Yue Guan, and opened the Wanling Treasure Gate without thinking.

In an instant, colorful light overflowed from the treasure gate.

Yue Guan, who had just recovered from his shock, became extremely excited again.

"This is. Acacia Heartbroken Red Fragrant Silk Fairy Product Snow Swan Kiss Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower Longing Autumn Water Dew Silk Tulip!"

Yue Guan has studied flowers and plants all his life, but he has never seen so many top-quality herbs at once like today.

This was almost the happiest moment in his life.

After recovering from his shock, Yue Guan looked at Yan in disbelief and smiled:
"Yan, you are really good. Tell me in detail how you picked these top-quality herbs."

"Ah."

Afterwards, Yan told Yue Guan how he picked those magical herbs and took the Eight-Angled Mysterious Ice Grass and Fiery Apricot, as well as how he was almost discovered by Dugu Bo and how he jumped into the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye Spring and escaped death.

Yue Guan was shocked after hearing this.

He didn't expect that Yan would be so courageous.

"Yan, you are so lucky that you managed to escape from Dugu Bo's sight.

The two extremely poisonous top-grade immortal herbs must be taken at the same time. Taking either one of them alone will poison you and cause you to die suddenly.

You are indeed lucky, or it may be that God is blessing you.

When you woke up from the Yin-Yang Eyes, I happened to return to Sunset Forest to look for you, and attracted Dugu Bo's attention."

Yan nodded.

"No wonder! When I woke up, Dugu Bo was not there. If you hadn't come back to find me, he wouldn't have left. You can say that you saved my life."

Yue Guan waved his hand and said with a smile:

"You are blessed with good fortune and destiny. You are destined to escape this disaster."

Yan's honesty moved Yue Guan, and he now agreed with Yan's idea.

In order to allow those magical herbs to grow better, the existence of the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire cannot be known to more people.

"Then let's keep this a secret for now. After we kill Dugu Bo, only you and I will know about the secret garden. Then it will become ours."

"Yes, that's what I meant."

Yan said as he handed the snow-colored Swan Kiss to Yue Guan.

"Elder Ju, I'll give this Snow Swan Kiss to you for safekeeping. Over the years, countless soul masters have died from Dugu Bo's snake venom. If you meet him again in the future, let him also have a taste of the tenfold backlash of the Green Scaled Snake King's venom."

"Good idea, haha~"

Yue Guan took the Snow Swan Kiss and pointed at the other fairy herbs, reminding them one by one:
“This Acacia Heartbroken Red is the king of flowers, the Fragrant Qiluo Immortal Product is the nemesis of all poisons, and the Qiluo Tulip is the best auxiliary immortal herb. You should keep it well for now, maybe it will be useful in the future.

This cockscomb Phoenix sunflower can enhance your flame power and also help you improve your soul power. However, you have just taken two extremely poisonous top-grade immortal herbs, so don't rush to take it, so as not to cause an overreaction and have the opposite effect.

Wait a year or until your soul power reaches level 50 before taking it, the effect will be better.

Although this Wangchuanqiushuilu is not a top-grade immortal herb, it can enhance your mental cohesion and help you better absorb the two immortal herbs in your body. You can take it now."

Yan nodded.

He also knew that it was not appropriate to take Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower now. Even if his body could adapt and his soul power increased by several levels at once, he would not be able to explain it when he returned.

Star Anise Mysterious Ice Grass, Fiery Apricot and Longing for the Autumn Water Dew will not help to improve soul power, but they can help to refine the body and improve mental strength, which is also a considerable gain.
