Upon hearing the words "Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well", Ye Lingling was completely stunned; she naturally knew of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, having been born into a medicine-refining family, such a sacred place was impossible for her not to know.

Translate: Upon hearing the words Binghuo Liangyi Yan, Lingling was utterly dumbfounded; she naturally knew of Binghuo Liangyi Yan, being born into a medicine-refining family, such a blessed land she could not possibly be unaware of.

So Gu Xuan's rise of twelve ranks in just a year must be due to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well? Exactly, aside from the heavenly-grade herbs provided by such a blessed land, what other possibility could there be?

Translate: So Gu Xuan's rise of twelve levels in just a year was due to Binghuo Liangyi Yan? Indeed, apart from the immortal-grade herbs provided by such a blessed land, what other possibility could there be?

No! Absolutely not! It's no wonder even that brat Gu Xuan looks down on the three treasures his grandmother brought; it turns out they now have a mine, so they disdain their little bit of soup and water.

Ye Lingling's heart was shaken, her mind racing; she thought that if she really ended up with Gu Xuan, even as a minor wife she'd likely gain many benefits. Unlike Ye Lingling's strange thoughts, Ye Hai Tang was seriously considering this matter at the moment.

Translate: Lingling's heart was shaken, her mind racing; she thought that if she really ended up with Gu Xuan, even as the younger one she'd probably gain quite a few benefits. Unlike Lingling's odd thoughts, Ye Hai Tang was seriously contemplating this matter at the moment.

Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, ah, that's the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, one of the world's three great treasure basins; to say she isn't moved would be false, after all no one knows its miraculous nature better than she does.

Translate: Binghuo Liangyi Yan, ah, that's Binghuo Liangyi Yan, one of the world's three great treasure basins; saying she isn't moved would be false, after all no one knows its miraculous nature better than she does.

But what about after joining the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect? Even if, as Gu Xuan said, she could steady her position with her skills, there's still a master alchemist ahead of her—she can't just push him aside to rise. Moreover, his abilities are clearly not lacking; otherwise, how would he know how to use the heavenly herbs inside the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well? Ye Hai Tang fell into a dilemma, feeling that even if she joined the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, she'd only get to drink the broth.

Translate: But after joining the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect, then? Even if, as Gu Xuan said, she could steady her position with her skills, there is still a medicine-refining master ahead of her—could she really just push him aside to rise? Moreover, it's obvious his ability isn't lacking; otherwise how would he know how to use the immortal herbs within Binghuo Liangyi Yan? Ye Hai Tang fell into a dilemma, feeling that even if she joined the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect she'd only get to sip some broth.

But she quickly came to terms with it: if she didn't join the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, she wouldn't even get to drink the broth.

Translate: But soon she figured it out: if she didn't join the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect, she damn well wouldn't even get any broth.

Seeing Ye Hai Tang's heart waver, Gu Xuan continued: "Since Grandma Ye knows of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, she naturally knows its miraculous nature."

Translate: Seeing Ye Hai Tang's heart waver, Gu Xuan continued: "Since Grandma Ye knows of Binghuo Liangyi Yan, she naturally knows its miraculous nature."

"The medicinal fields inside the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well are currently tended by my teacher, but he's devoted to alchemy and cultivation, so if Grandma Ye is willing to join the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, the Well happens to lack someone to tend it."

Translate: "The medicine fields inside Binghuo Liangyi Yan are currently tended by my teacher, but he is devoted to refining medicine and cultivation, so if Grandma Ye is willing to join the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect, this Binghuo Liangyi Yan happens to lack a caretaker."

After a pause, Gu Xuan looked at Ye Lingling and said: "I heard Lingling say that Nine Hearts Hai Tang has a natural affinity for plants; I think if you were to tend the medicinal fields inside the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, you could probably make it thrive."

Translate: After a pause, Gu Xuan looked at Lingling and said: "I heard Lingling say that Nine Heart Begonia has a natural affinity for plants; I think if you were to tend the medicine fields inside Binghuo Liangyi Yan, you should be able to make it thrive."

Upon hearing this, Ye Hai Tang's eyes flickered—let me tend the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well? Is there really such a good thing?

Translate: Upon hearing this, Ye Hai Tang's eyes flickered: "Let me tend Binghuo Liangyi Yan? Is there such a good thing?"

"What's the price?" Ye Hai Tang asked.

Translate: "What's the price?" Ye Hai Tang asked.

Gu Xuan smiled slightly: "Grandma Ye, what are you talking about? By then you'll be family, and a treasure like this only reaches its fullest potential in the hands of the most suitable person."

Translate: Gu Xuan smiled slightly: "Grandma Ye, what are you talking about? By then you'll be family; a treasure like this only reaches its greatest effect in the hands of the most suitable person."

Upon hearing this, Ye Hai Tang's heart felt a bit complicated; the implication was that she'd be taken for granted, yet she was indeed moved.

Translate: Hearing this, Ye Hai Tang felt somewhat complicated; the implication was that she'd be had, yet she indeed felt moved.

After all, being able to tend the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well means the family's medicinal herbs could be transplanted there, and she, as the one tending the Well, would naturally get a share of the profits.

Translate: After all, being able to tend Binghuo Liangyi Yan means the family's medicinal herbs could be transplanted there, and she, as the caretaker, would naturally get a share of the profits.

From a profit perspective she wouldn't lose out, but in the future Nine Hearts Hai Tang would become part of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda would be leading.

Translate: From a profit perspective she wouldn't lose out, only that in the future Nine Heart Begonia would become part of the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect family, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Pagoda would take the lead.

After a long while, Ye Hai Tang nodded slightly and then said: "I'd like to go inspect first; if it's feasible, I agree to join the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."

Translate: After a long while, Ye Hai Tang nodded slightly and then said: "I'd like to first go inspect; if possible, I agree to join the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect."

Upon hearing this, Gu Xuan smiled slightly: "That's great; I'll have the Poison Douluo take you to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well later."

Translate: Hearing this, Gu Xuan smiled slightly: "Good, then I'll have the Poison Douluo take you to Binghuo Liangyi Yan."

"Poison Douluo?" Ye Hai Tang blinked in surprise.

Translate: "Poison Douluo?" Ye Hai Tang blinked slightly.

"He's currently my father-in-law and also family; speaking of which, the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well was originally discovered by him!" Gu Xuan smiled slightly and explained.

Translate: "He is now my father-in-law, also family; speaking of which, Binghuo Liangyi Yan was originally discovered by him!" Gu Xuan smiled slightly and explained.

Dugu Bo joined the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect? That would mean the sect now has six titled Douluo. Ye Hai Tang was surprised, but compared to earlier information, this is still barely acceptable.

Translate: "Dugu Bo joined the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect? Then wouldn't the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect have six Titled Douluo?" Ye Hai Tang was surprised, but compared to earlier information, this news was still barely acceptable.

However, what surprised Ye Hai Tang was that this brat Gu Xuan was already married? Originally she had thought of letting Ye Lingling try to get along with Gu Xuan, since they'd both chosen to join the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, attaching themselves to a big thigh would naturally be best.

Translate: But what surprised Ye Hai Tang was that Gu Xuan this brat is already married? Originally she had thought of letting Lingling try to get along with Gu Xuan; after all, both choosing to join the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect, clinging to a strong thigh is naturally best.

Moreover, this brat Gu Xuan is indeed attractive in appearance and possesses extraordinary talent.

Translate: Moreover, Gu Xuan this brat is indeed attractive in appearance and possesses extraordinary talent.

Now they already have a granddaughter who is a titled Douluo; wouldn't her own daughter be at a disadvantage? Moreover, she knows Du Gu Yan and Ye Lingling are classmates and close friends. If Ye Lingling were to get involved with Gu Xuan again, that would truly be a hellish Asura scene. Ye Hai Tang pondered, and Gu Xuan had already risen: "Grandma Ye, let's leave it at that for today; please think it over carefully. Tomorrow, the Poison Douluo will meet you outside the Sunset Forest at JDZ." Gu Xuan glanced at the three brocade boxes on the table, then shook his head: "Just keep these three items for now."

Translate: Now, they already have a Titled Douluo's granddaughter; wouldn't my daughter be at a loss? Moreover, she knows Du Gu Yan and Lingling are classmates, and still close friends! If Lingling were to get involved with Gu Xuan too, that would truly be a hellish battlefield! Ye Hai Tang pondered, while Gu Xuan had already risen: "Grandma Ye, let's leave our talk here for today; please consider it seriously—tomorrow the Poison Douluo will meet you at JDZ outside the Sunset Forest." Gu Xuan glanced at the three brocade boxes on the table, then shook his head: "Just keep these three items for now."

Afterwards, Gu Xuan turned to Ye Lingling: "Lingling, do you want to go back to the academy with me?"

Translate: Then Gu Xuan looked at Lingling: "Lingling, do you want to go back to the academy with me?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Lingling glanced at Ye Hai Tang and Zhang Jin Source; the two elders nodded at her, and then Ye Lingling followed Gu Xuan out of the Dou Tian Grand Hotel.

Translate: Lingling, upon hearing this, glanced at Ye Hai Tang and Zhang Jinyuan; the two elders nodded at Lingling, and then Lingling followed Gu Xuan out of the Dou Tian Grand Hotel.

After the two youngsters left, Zhang Jin Source and Ye Hai Tang sat down and fell into contemplation.

Translate: After the two youngsters left, Zhang Jinyuan and Ye Hai Tang sat down, falling into contemplation.

"Source, do you think I'm doing this right?" Ye Hai Tang said, leaning against Zhang Jin Source's broad chest, her voice weary, utterly different from the gentle politeness she showed when talking with Gu Xuan.

Translate: "\"Yuanyuan, do you think what I'm doing is right? \" Leaning against Zhang Jinyuan's broad chest, Ye Hai Tang's voice carried fatigue, completely different from the gentle politeness she had when interacting with Gu Xuan."

Zhang Jin Source embraced Ye Hai Tang and said gently: "I've long proposed that we must obtain the eight-petal immortal orchid; this opportunity has come, and the other side's terms aren't low. I think, rather than let us spend our lives in a hazy stupor because of this curse, we might as well live boldly and unrestrainedly."

Translate: Zhang Jinyuan embraced Ye Hai Tang and said gently: "I've long proposed that we must obtain the Eight-Petal Immortal Orchid; this opportunity has arrived, and the other side's terms are not low. I think, rather than let us live our whole lives in a daze because of this curse, it's better to boldly live it up."

"I don't want to see Lingling suffer this fate in the future, nor do I want to see you, because of this curse, eventually end your life like Xu Guang did."

Translate: "\"I don't want to see Lingling suffer this in the future, nor do I want to see you, because of this curse, eventually self-destruct like Xu Guang did...... \""

You Xu Guang is the son of Ye Hai Tang and another man, and also the father of Ye Lingling.

Translate: You Xu Guang is the son of Ye Hai Tang and another man, and also Lingling's father.

Upon hearing this, Ye Hai Tang couldn't help but tear up; the pain of a white-haired person sending off a black-haired one can only be understood by those who have experienced it.

Translate: Hearing this, Ye Hai Tang couldn't help but burst into tears; the pain of a white-haired person sending off a black-haired one can only be understood by those who have experienced it.

"I understand; tomorrow I'll go to JDZ to meet the Poison Douluo." Ye Hai Tang buried her head in the man's chest.

Translate: "\"I understand; tomorrow I'll go to JDZ to meet the Poison Douluo. \" Ye Hai Tang buried her head in the man's chest."

Gu Xuan took Ye Lingling and left the hotel, walking at a leisurely pace along the main road inside Heavenly Fight City.

Looking at Ye Lingling hopping and skipping ahead, Gu Xuan couldn't help but ask, "Why are you so happy?"

Ye Lingling turned her head and looked at Gu Xuan with a hehe smile: "Thank you, Xiao Xuan. I won't tell anyone these words today, but because of your words, my grandmother will probably agree to join the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect."

"Because the Binghuo Liangyi Yan's allure for her far exceeds that of my two grandfathers by several times!"

However, shortly after, Ye Lingling looked at Gu Xuan resentfully: "But why didn't you tell me earlier that you have the Binghuo Liangyi Yan? If you had told me sooner, you wouldn't have needed to secretly like me; I would have already taken the initiative to pursue you."

Gu Xuan looked somewhat surprised at Ye Lingling who had spoken these words; his whole person went dumbfounded—damn, is this really your nature? How come you feel even tougher than Du Gu Yan? Ye Lingling looked at Gu Xuan's dumbfounded expression and gave a hehe laugh: "How can I not be used to the current me? I myself am not really used to it either, but just thinking about the future makes me unable to stay happy; the emotions I've suppressed for so many years suddenly become excited, and I can't help but……"

Gu Xuan understood upon hearing her words; as Ye Lingling said, having experienced despair, she suddenly welcomed hope, her emotions would inevitably change somewhat, and even during this period Ye Lingling might transform into another Ye Lingling.

From being aloof and indifferent to becoming a lively and lovable little girl full of hope for life.

Listening to Ye Lingling's words, Gu Xuan also smiled and teased: "I actually wanted to pursue you, but back then you were ice-cold, and I had no way to make a move; if you had been like Yanzi back then, I might have pursued you first."

Hearing Gu Xuan's words, Ye Lingling raised her eyebrows: "Hey, I'm asking you, do you guys all love whoever you see, and once you get them you don't cherish them and move on to the next?"

Hearing the slightly questioning tone, Gu Xuan stepped up to Ye Lingling, took her hand, and said gently: "I'm not a scumbag; I just want to give every girl I love a home."
