"I said this herb garden is mine, so it's mine!"
"Then I could say Sunset Forest is my zoo! This Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well is located in Sunset Forest, so logically it's mine!"
Hearing Natya's words, Dugu Bo was so angry he laughed.
"Little girl, I can't argue with you, so I'm not going to waste my breath on you. Quickly hand over those herbs, or don't blame me for being impolite!"
With that, Dugu Bo released his aura, his Martial Soul: Azure Phosphorous Serpent Emperor, and nine spirit rings—yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, black—bloomed around his body.
"Oh? How exactly are you going to be impolite?"
Seeing that Dugu Bo was about to attack, Natya immediately released her aura as well, her Soul-Shattering Blood-Drinking Halberd Martial Soul appearing in her hand, and nine spirit rings—two yellow, two purple, four black, and one red—bloomed around her body.
Although both Dugu Bo and Natya were level 91 Title Douluos, Natya's aura was clearly much stronger than Dugu Bo's.
"!!! A Title Douluo with a 100,000-year spirit ring?"
Dugu Bo was immediately shocked. He hadn't expected that this girl, who looked to be under 20, was actually a Title Douluo, and one with a 100,000-year spirit ring at that?
"Not only that, I also have a domain!"
Instantly, the Battle God Domain appeared. Dugu Bo felt that his own strength was suppressed by 20% by the domain, while Natya's strength increased by 20%.
Now, the gap between the two was even greater. Dugu Bo, who was already no match for Natya, was now even more helpless.
"Your Majesty, this is a misunderstanding!"
Dugu Bo was indeed Dugu Bo. Seeing that Natya's strength was far beyond his own, he immediately wanted to back down.
After all, a true man can bend and stretch! No problem! Any misunderstanding can be resolved by clearing it up; there's no need to fight to the death.
After all, he had only recently broken through to the Title Douluo level and still had a long life ahead of him to enjoy!
As for the stolen herbs? Was there such a thing? Probably not! No, absolutely not!
"Misunderstanding? You don't get to decide. I'm in a bad mood right now, so let me beat you up, or you'll regret it!"
This time, Dugu Bo didn't dare. He'd already backed down; what more did they want?
"You! You're going too far! I'm a Title Douluo, after all!"
"Hmph, you? A Title Douluo with a 70,000-year-old ninth spirit ring? I've never seen such trash as you! You've utterly disgraced the Title Douluo!"
"You—"
"What 'you,' take this!"
"Seventh Spirit Skill, Weapon Spirit True Form."
Natya didn't hesitate, immediately unleashing her Weapon Spirit True Form. A huge half-body phantom materialized behind her, wielding an enlarged version of the Soul-Shattering Blood-Drinking Halberd, and slashed towards Dugu Bo.
"Seventh Spirit Skill, Azure Phosphorous True Form."
Helpless, although he couldn't defeat Natya, Dugu Bo had no choice but to grit his teeth and go for it.
Not long after, Dugu Bo couldn't hold on any longer and immediately surrendered.
"Stop! Stop hitting me! I surrender!"
"Hmph, who do you think you are? You think you can just stop because I tell you to? Let me beat you up first."
Hearing this, Dugu Bo knew his life was spared. He immediately stopped attacking and began to defend. After a long while, a fresh pig's head was ready!
Natya channeled her worry for Wang Teng into anger, venting it on Dugu Bo.
"Old man, consider yourself lucky. I'll let you off today. Get lost!"
Clapping her hands, Natya decided to let Dugu Bo go. After all, Dugu Bo had indeed discovered the herb garden first; the two of them were just later arrivals.
"This is impossible!"
Dugu Bo refused to accept it. Not only had he been beaten up, but he could also accept taking the herbs—he didn't recognize them and they weren't of much use anyway. However, he still needed the water and fire power here to suppress the Azure Phosphorous Serpent King poison within him!
If this place no longer belonged to him, wouldn't he be finished?
"Huh? What? You want what more do you want after I spared your life? I'm not giving you back those herbs! Forget about it! If you dare to utter another word, watch out for your life!" Natya's eyes widened, as if she would really attack if Dugu Bo dared to say no.
"No, it's not about the herbs! It's just that I'm poisoned and need the power of ice and fire here to suppress the toxins in my body. If it's not suppressed for a long time, I'm finished." Since his fist wasn't as big as Natya's, he had no choice but to explain his situation.
"Well, this is..."
Natya was also a little dumbfounded. So, if she really drove Dugu Bo out, then he would be doomed. She would have taken advantage of him for nothing, and doing so was indeed a bit inappropriate. Moreover, if Dugu Bo really fought back desperately, it might even affect Wang Teng in the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, which would be bad.
"Alright, you stay here for now, we'll talk later!"
After thinking for a moment, Natya decided to wait for Wang Teng to come out. If Wang Teng was determined to seize the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, then Dugu Bo would be out of luck.
Natya then ignored Dugu Bo and returned to the side of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, quietly waiting for Wang Teng to emerge.
"Phew~"
Dugu Bo breathed a sigh of relief. After all, if Natya was determined to drive him away, he would have fought desperately even if he couldn't win.
Without the water and fire power here to suppress the poison in his body, he would inevitably die from poisoning, so he would naturally fight to the death.
Fortunately, Natya relented. However, it seemed that this powerful figure actually had companions in that magical spring?
Dugu Bo knew the power of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well. Even as a Title Douluo, if he accidentally fell in, he would definitely be finished.
How did they get in? Aren't they afraid of being reduced to ashes? However, Dugu Bo didn't dwell on it and focused on suppressing the toxins in his body.
Fortunately, although he looked bruised and swollen from the beating, these were just superficial injuries, and with the physical strength of a Title Douluo, they would heal quickly.
But he couldn't recover now; what if that old lady beat him up again after he recovered? Clearly, in Dugu Bo's eyes, Natya was a demon in human skin.
Meanwhile, in the valley within the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, Wang Teng, though unconscious in the spring water, was tempering his golden body under the influence of the two immortal herbs and the power of ice and fire.
Natya was worried about Wang Teng, as the scorching and frigid spring water of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well looked very dangerous.
Meanwhile, Dugu Bo grieved in a corner, silently suppressing the toxins within his body. Of the three, Dugu Bo was the most unfortunate.
First, he discovered that his family's high-grade medicinal herbs had been stolen, and not only that, he was beaten up. Now, he might even lose this precious spot that could suppress the toxins in his body. He was truly heartbroken!
