Chapter 109: Chrysanthemum Douluo: I'd Rather Smash My Head with a Block of Tofu
"Su kid, this immortal herb must not be given to Dugu Bo!"
Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan, with his level 95 soul power, burst out with an aura that enveloped everyone present.
"Do you realize that with this immortal herb, I could advance to level 96 in soul power?!"
"Using it to treat a dying man like Dugu Bo is a complete waste!"
Ghost Douluo Gui Mei also became ethereal, ready to act at any moment.
His gaze was fixed on Dugu Bo, as if he was prepared to strike.
Dugu Bo, sensing the hostility from both Yue Guan and Gui Mei, became tense as well.
Both were level 95 Title Douluo.
If they joined forces, he wouldn't even have a chance to fight back.
Yet, Dugu Bo coldly stared at Yue Guan: "Old Chrysanthemum, this is my herb garden."
"The Eight-Petaled Immortal Orchid, both in reason and sentiment, should belong to me."
"Moreover, Su young friend personally gave it to me. Do you dare to disobey the order of His Holiness's disciple?"
Chrysanthemum Douluo spat and glared at Su Yun, then locked his gaze on Dugu Bo like a venomous snake, saying menacingly:
"This brat doesn't understand the value of the immortal herb."
"Even if he is His Holiness's disciple, I will not listen to such a foolish decision."
"If this immortal herb is wasted on you, I'd rather smash my head with a block of tofu!"
Chrysanthemum Douluo's eyes gradually filled with murderous intent:
"Old poison, hand over the Eight-Petaled Immortal Orchid, or don't blame me for being rude."
If not for the fear of damaging the orchid in a confrontation, Yue Guan might have already attacked Dugu Bo.
"You wish!" Dugu Bo shouted angrily.
He wouldn't easily hand over the orchid to Yue Guan, even if he didn't use it himself, he would give it to his granddaughter.
Hu Liena and Zhu Zhuqing, seeing the three Title Douluo ready to clash, were extremely nervous.
Dugu Yan, feeling the terrifying aura of Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluo, also felt suffocated, as if a mountain was pressing on her.
"Enough! Grandpa Chrysanthemum, it's just an immortal herb!"
"This place is a true paradise. If an Eight-Petaled Immortal Orchid can grow here, why can't another immortal herb grow?"
Su Yun stood between Dugu Bo and Chrysanthemum Douluo, rebuking them.
Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan sneered continuously:
"Su kid, indeed this place is a treasure, but do you think immortal herbs grow like cabbages?"
"I've lived so long, and this might be the only Eight-Petaled Immortal Orchid I'll ever see in my life."
"You want me to give up on it, to give up my chance to reach level 96 in soul power."
"Not even His Holiness's words would work today!"
Su Yun's gaze hardened:
"What if I can find you another immortal herb?"
Chrysanthemum Douluo's expression changed sharply:
"What did you say?!"
Su Yun said solemnly:
"I can help you find another immortal herb."
"Impossible!"
Yue Guan categorically denied: "Immortal herbs are extremely rare. Seeing one is already a great fortune."
"Su kid, it's indeed your skill to have picked the Eight-Petaled Immortal Orchid, but today, it must belong to me!"
Yue Guan's eyes turned cold, and he shouted: "Old ghost, get ready to act!"
Ignoring Su Yun's words, Yue Guan planned to immediately use a soul fusion skill with Ghost Douluo — the Two Yi Static Field.
To prevent Dugu Bo from destroying the Eight-Petaled Immortal Orchid, Yue Guan felt the need to use their soul fusion skill.
Upon hearing this, Ghost Douluo Gui Mei immediately prepared to release his martial soul. However, Su Yun's voice intervened again.
"Wait!"
"Give me ten minutes!"
Yue Guan frowned, "Su kid, what are you planning to do?"
Su Yun turned and walked towards the depths of the jungle, saying, "In ten minutes, I will bring you another immortal herb."
Ten minutes? To find another immortal herb? Yue Guan didn't believe Su Yun's words.
Just as Su Yun disappeared from view and Yue Guan was about to act, Hu Liena ran in front of him.
"Grandpa Chrysanthemum, please trust Su Yun this time," she pleaded.
"Na Na, it's not that Grandpa Chrysanthemum doesn't trust you," Yue Guan said. "This is an opportunity for me to reach level 95 in soul power. You better hide; when Ghost Douluo and I start, you might get hurt."
Despite Hu Liena's plea, Chrysanthemum Douluo was not willing to wait. Not even a minute longer.
But just as Chrysanthemum Douluo was about to act, a jade box landed in his hand with a snap.
"What's this?"
Chrysanthemum Douluo saw the jade box in his hand, the same one Su Yun had used to store the Eight-Petaled Immortal Orchid.
He instinctively opened the box, finding the orchid Su Yun had picked, quietly lying inside, emitting a faint orchid fragrance.
"What do you mean by this, old poison?!" Yue Guan looked sharply at Dugu Bo.
Dugu Bo snorted, "Hmph! Su Yun has shown me such trust; how can I not trust him? If he dared to say those words, he must be confident. I'm willing to trust him, even if it costs my chance to heal."
With this, Dugu Bo's gaze filled with determination.
Dugu Yan, seeing her grandfather trusting Su Yun to such an extent, letting go of the Eight-Petaled Immortal Orchid even Chrysanthemum Douluo coveted, felt her grandfather's stature rise in her heart.
Zhu Zhuqing and Hu Liena were equally shocked to see Dugu Bo's actions.
"Hmph! Old poison, you've lived so long, you've really become senile," Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan sneered. "Such a rare herb, how many times does it come by in life? I'm telling you, if Su Yun really brings back another immortal herb within ten minutes, I'll go smash my head with a block of frozen tofu!"
Dugu Bo glared at Yue Guan but remained silent, turning his gaze to where Su Yun had disappeared, waiting for his return.
Quickly, ten minutes passed, and Su Yun was still not in sight.
"See, old poison, do you think your herb garden is the immortal realm's garden?" Yue Guan mocked. "Hoping for another immortal herb? That's nothing but wishful thinking."
Dugu Bo's expression changed, about to retort Yue Guan.
Suddenly, he perked up and turned his head towards where Su Yun had left.
There, Su Yun's figure finally reappeared.
