Inside the fortress, within a room!
At this moment, only Dugu Bo, Dugu Yan, Wang Li, Bai He, and Yang Wudi were present.
With no outsiders, Yang Wudi also produced his so-called evidence, which was a book with the three characters, immortal herb scroll, written on its cover.
Yang Wudi took a deep breath, then said:
"My clan is very knowledgeable about the world's medicinal herbs. This book contains introductions to various medicinal herbs, but the most precious among them are Immortal Herbs. That's why our clan named it the immortal herb scroll, hoping to collect all the Immortal Herbs in the world."
As Yang Wudi spoke, he opened the book and quickly found the page for the Yearning Heartbroken Red:
"An immortal treasure, the Yearning Heartbroken Red, brings the dead back to life, heals broken bones, seizes the fortune of heaven and earth, and can help one shed their mortal coil and be reborn."
"And this Immortal Herb is a treasure of utmost love and devotion. Only between lovers can it be picked. If one tries to pick it by force, it will only wither completely. It is extremely rare, extremely rare!"
Yang Wudi's expression was filled with a hint of fanaticism.
Dugu Bo remained outwardly calm, but his heart was exceptionally moved. He had thought that in the world, only Chrysanthemum Douluo was the most knowledgeable about rare flowers and exotic herbs. He had not expected that the Clan Head of the Breaking Clan would possess an entire immortal herb scroll.
His heart immediately stirred with the desire to acquire this immortal herb scroll, but this intention was not directly revealed.
Dugu Yan was playing with the Yearning Heartbroken Red in her hand. She didn't care about bringing the dead back to life or healing broken bones, but she really liked this flower, a symbol of utmost love and devotion.
Wang Li calmly said:
"Senior, this flower has already been picked. You should know what that means."
Yang Wudi looked at Wang Li, nodded, and said:
"I know. It means the Yearning Heartbroken Red has acknowledged its master. A Yearning Heartbroken Red only acknowledges one master in its lifetime. Outsiders cannot take it; if taken by force, it will only wither."
"Therefore, I only ask to be able to see this Yearning Heartbroken Red. My clan has an immortal herb scroll, but I have never seen an Immortal Herb. To be able to see this immortal treasure would fulfill a long-cherished wish."
Wang Li continued:
"Senior, looking cannot be for free. May we copy a portion of this immortal herb scroll? It's not that this junior is greedy, but ever since we obtained this flower, we have been searching for its uses. Unfortunately, throughout the entire continent, there are very few who research rare flowers and exotic herbs. We were quite surprised that senior could recognize this flower today."
Dugu Bo glanced at Wang Li and silently gave a thumbs-up in his heart. After all, he was a senior expert, and if he had spoken those words himself, it would inevitably seem a bit like bullying. However, Wang Li was a junior, making communication much easier. Getting this immortal herb scroll would not only help with the Yearning Heartbroken Red but also allow them to identify all the other Immortal Herbs in their Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
Yang Wudi pondered for a moment. All of his Yang Family's knowledge was divided into two volumes: the upper volume, the immortal herb scroll, and the lower volume, the Medicinal Poison Scroll. The immortal herb scroll was only an introduction to medicinal herbs, while the Medicinal Poison Scroll was a study of medicine and poison.
The immortal herb scroll, so be it if it's copied!
Thinking of this, Yang Wudi nodded and said:
"Yes, as long as it's not spread externally, then it can be copied. May I take a look at this immortal treasure?"
Wang Li's heart rejoiced. It seemed the Yearning Heartbroken Red's attraction to Yang Wudi was indeed strong enough that merely looking at it could earn them the immortal herb scroll.
Immediately, Wang Li looked at Dugu Yan and suggested:
"Yan Yan Jie, why don't you let him see it."
Dugu Yan knew the importance of the matter, and her grandfather was also present, so she wasn't afraid that Yang Wudi would try to snatch it. She handed out the Yearning Heartbroken Red and said at the same time:
"Senior, please look."
All of Yang Wudi's excitement and fanaticism receded, leaving only an expression of piety. He reached out, wanting to touch the Yearning Heartbroken Red.
But at this instant, the Yearning Heartbroken Red burst forth with a layer of golden-red light. It was resisting Yang Wudi. The acknowledged Yearning Heartbroken Red would not allow an outsider to touch it, even if they tried.
Being able to look but not touch did not diminish Yang Wudi's excitement or fanaticism; instead, it made him even more devout. He murmured:
"Immortal Herb has a Spirit, Immortal Herb has a Spirit..."
Finally, he composed himself and said thoughtfully:
"The Yearning Heartbroken Red and the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng have complementary medicinal effects. I presume Your Grace, Bi Lin, specifically came to purchase the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng for this reason."
Upon hearing this, although Dugu Bo also didn't know about this, the image of a senior expert could not be lost. He calmly nodded:
"That's right, exactly."
Yang Wudi had an expression that said, "As expected." The Yearning Heartbroken Red and the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng were both treasures. He could hardly imagine what immense effects they could unleash when combined.
However, none of this concerned him. Yang Wudi gritted his teeth and solemnly said:
"Actually, besides the immortal herb scroll, my clan also has a Medicinal Poison Scroll, which contains some research on medicine and poison."
"This young lady, you are the junior of Your Grace, Bi Lin. I won't ask you to become my disciple. Both the immortal herb scroll and the Medicinal Poison Scroll can be copied by you. I only hope that you can promote the immortal herb scroll, the Medicinal Poison Scroll, the Yearning Heartbroken Red, and the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng, and not waste them."
Wang Li's eyes sparkled. Indeed, this Yang Wudi was still hiding good things, and he offered them proactively, saving a lot of effort.
Dugu Bo was silent for a moment. He didn't like owing favors, but he truly didn't want to refuse what Yang Wudi offered. So he said:
"This old man won't take your things for free. Consider it a favor owed to you. If you ever seek help from this old man in the future, I will definitely help you within my capabilities."
Yang Wudi accepted this frankly. All their family's research in exchange for a Titled Douluo's favor was absolutely more than enough:
"Thank you, Your Grace."
Everything settled, Dugu Bo, Dugu Yan, and Wang Li stayed in Bai Family Fortress for an extra day. Dugu Yan copied both the Breaking Clan's immortal herb scroll and Medicinal Poison Scroll, and Yang Wudi also gave Dugu Yan a copy of his notes on using medicine and poison.
The next day!
Dugu Bo, taking Dugu Yan and Wang Li, flew away, leaving Bai Family Fortress and returning to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
And within Bai Family Fortress!
Bai He curiously asked Yang Wudi:
"Old goat, let me ask one more thing. Was my Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng sold cheaply or expensively?"
Yang Wudi glanced at him and explained:
"The Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng is only relatively precious to your Speed Clan, but to Your Grace, Bi Lin, it is truly priceless."
"It should be considered sold cheaply. However, Your Grace, Bi Lin, is not an unreasonable person. He will more or less remember your kindness. If you ever need help in the future and truly seek him out, there's an eighty to ninety percent chance he'll help you solve it."
Bai He, knowing when to quit while he was ahead, smiled and said:
"That's good, that's good. Our Four Single Attribute Clans have fallen into this situation because of Spirit Hall. To be able to befriend a Titled Douluo, perhaps we really will need to ask for his help in the future."
...Meanwhile, on the other side!
Dugu Bo said with a smile:
"I didn't expect such a fruitful harvest this time. And, the Yearning Heartbroken Red and Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng actually have complementary medicinal effects. I believe even more now that they can help Yan Yan solve her Spirit defect."
After speaking, Dugu Bo saw Wang Li's thoughtful expression and curiously asked:
"Xiao Li, what are you thinking about, so engrossed?"
Wang Li heard him and explained:
"I was thinking that the Speed Clan and the Breaking Clan each have their own specialties. Perhaps in the future, we can gather them to be our assistance."
