Chapter 143: Shui Bing'er: What to Do When the Two Sisters Fight Over a Man?

Shui Bing'er clearly knows just how sought-after those immortal herbs are.

All owners of copies who can see Luo Ye's diary will definitely want to obtain the immortal herbs suited to themselves.

Even though the number of immortal herbs is large, according to Luo Ye's description there are over a dozen, the two sisters would still find it hard to obtain the immortal herbs Luo Ye would give them in the first round.

After all, in this life they haven't even met Luo Ye yet, and given Luo Ye's cautious nature, it's absolutely impossible for him to give them something so precious right away.

So even though Shui Bing'er also really wants the immortal herbs, she can only suppress her excitement and act according to the plan.

According to the plan the two sisters discussed, Heaven Water Academy will soon begin exchanges with Heaven Fighting Royal Academy, and let the Heaven Water Team spar with the Royal Fighting Team.

By then, it will be natural to establish a connection with Luo Ye.

As long as the two sisters take the initiative, plus Luo Ye possesses memories of his past life, he will certainly not refuse their contact.

However, as the time to meet draws nearer, Shui Bing'er inevitably feels some nervousness, completely unlike the relaxed Shui Yue'er.

This isn't because Shui Bing'er is impatient; rather, whenever she recalls that in her past life she and Luo Ye were close confidantes, and that both sisters fell for the same man, her mood becomes very strange.

If things develop in this life just as they did in her past life, Shui Bing'er truly wouldn't know how to face it.

Thinking this, Shui Bing'er looked at Shui Yue'er beside her and asked tentatively.

"Have you decided what attitude to use when facing Luo Ye?"

Hearing this, Shui Yue'er tilted her head, slightly puzzled, and asked.

"What do you mean?"

Seeing her clueless expression, Shui Bing'er couldn't help but helplessly press her forehead, looking utterly at a loss with her.

Clearly I reminded her before, yet now she's still reacting this way; I really don't know what she's thinking about all day.

Shui Bing'er let out a deep sigh and said.

"What I mean is, have you considered whether you might fall for him again, just like in your past life, due to too much contact with Luo Ye?"

Hearing this, Shui Yue'er waved her hand, indifferent, and said.

"I thought you were saying something else; in my view, there's absolutely no need to obsess over this—who can guarantee what the future will bring?"

"Are you suggesting we should avoid Luo Ye altogether just because of what happened in our past life? That's simply throwing out the baby with the bathwater."

"You're excellent in every way, far smarter than me, but it's precisely because you overthink that you always hesitate and look ahead and behind."

Hearing Shui Yue's old-fashioned remark, Shui Bing'er's forehead instantly filled with black lines.

But upon serious reflection, her words are indeed quite reasonable.

Whether it's to contact Luo Ye to steadily earn points, or to join forces with this child of destiny to jointly resist Tang San's extraterrestrial heavenly demon, we must first establish friendship with him.

As for how things will develop in the future, that's certainly not something we can decide now.

Thinking this through, Shui Bing'er no longer worries about this issue; instead, she looks forward to meeting Luo Ye soon.

By secretly observing Luo Ye's diary these past days, Shui Bing'er has long since developed a strong curiosity about him and can't wait to meet him.

"What? Is what Luo Ye said true? Those immortal herbs actually belong to my grandfather?"

Dugu Yan was dazed.

She never imagined, no matter what, that the immortal herbs she had long dreamed of would be right before her eyes.

Actually, Dugu Yan knows her grandfather has a mysterious medicinal garden; to prevent the herbs there from being destroyed by spirit beasts, and to keep others from accidentally stumbling in, Dugu Bo specially set up a layer of toxic barrier outside the garden.

Although Dugu Yan and Dugu Bo can sense that those herbs are unusual, they have no idea what their specific effects are.

They have never dared to consume any of them on their own.

Moreover, Dugu Yan is well aware that Dugu Bo has long been troubled by the azure-phosphorus snake toxin in his body, suffering years of pain and torment.

Therefore, after obtaining a copy of the diary and seeing those items in the Points Mall, Dugu Yan has dreamed of earning enough points to help her grandfather remove the toxin from his body.

As it turns out, Luo Ye now claims that the immortal herb capable of removing the toxin from her grandfather's body is in his possession.

If it weren't certain that Luo Ye wouldn't lie in his diary, Dugu Yan would really suspect he's deceiving her.

Not only Dugu Yan was shocked by this news; Ye Lingling, Zhu Zhuqing, Ning Rongrong, Xiao Wu, and the others beside her were equally stunned.

After a brief shock, Ning Rongrong was the first to regain her composure, her eyes flickering as she tentatively asked Dugu Yan.

"Since you already know where the immortal herbs are, this is practically handed to you on a silver platter—what are you planning to do?"

Hearing this, Ye Lingling, Zhu Zhuqing, and Xiao Wu simultaneously turned their gazes to Dugu Yan, wanting to know her answer to this question.

Dugu Yan glanced at Ning Rongrong and instantly understood what she meant.

"Aren't you worried that, once she knows the immortal herbs are those very plants in her grandfather's medicinal garden, she'll hoard them all for herself?"

Dugu Yan let out a cold laugh and said.

"Do you think I'm an idiot? I know full well whether a single full meal or regular meals are better."

"I would never act to hoard the immortal herbs, even if they belong to my grandfather."

Luo Ye had already said in his diary long ago that immortal herbs are not necessarily better in greater amounts for soul masters.

Only the first plant can exert its maximum effect; if a second is taken, the effect will surely be greatly reduced, possibly even causing adverse influences.

Moreover, if she really hoarded the immortal herbs, Luo Ye would surely notice something amiss, likely causing the diary copy to be exposed.

Compared to the treasures in the Points Mall, even immortal herbs would become insignificant.

After all, one can even purchase fragments of divine status in the Points Mall.

After hearing Dugu Yan's reply, all the girls simultaneously breathed a sigh of relief, and Ning Rongrong even smiled and said.

"Don't misunderstand; I'm only worried you might be blinded by profit and act irrationally."

"But looking at it now, I underestimated you—I apologize to you."

Ning Rongrong's apologetic attitude was so proper that not a trace of the little devil could be seen, which also improved Dugu Yan's complexion considerably; she no longer dwelled on suspecting her.

Ye Lingling beside her timely smoothed things over and said.

"As fellow owners of the diary copies, we can even say we're a community of shared interests—there's no need to get angry over such a trivial matter."
