Beneath the Lake of Life.

"Master, the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes!" Ziji's pupils contracted.

Gu Yue Na slowly rose to her feet. "I never expected the place where the Ice Dragon King and Fire Dragon King fell to be the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes."

"Master, should we go and retrieve the Dragon Bones of the two Dragon Kings?" Ziji asked.

Gu Yue Na shook her head. "Forget it. We will be working with Xu Fan in the future. Only if the Ice Dragon King and Fire Dragon King give Xu Fan their Dragon Bones and God Rings can we cooperate better."

Biji stood to the side, not knowing what to say.

They were giving him God Rings, Dragon Bones, and even women. Would that really make Xu Fan cooperate with them?

Or rather, was all this enough?

To be honest, Biji felt that letting Master do it herself would be best.

She simply did not dare say that aloud.

As the Supreme God King, the Dragon God was far more powerful than the Five Great God Kings of the God Realm. If nothing had gone wrong, the God Realm would still be trembling in fear today.

But the Dragon God had been quite the trap as well. Before dying, he said something about how the Dragon God could not reappear and soul beasts could not become gods. He practically doomed the Soul Beast Clan that came after him.

Of course, Asura God and the others had a hand in this too. Back when the Dragon God went mad, he nearly crippled the God Realm and killed who knew how many deities. In the end, Asura God split the Dragon God in half with a single sword strike. One half became the Golden Dragon King and was imprisoned in the God Realm. The other half became the Silver Dragon KingNana—who was still recovering from her injuries in the Star Dou Great Forest.

Later on, soul beasts even had to endure a lightning tribulation every Hundred Thousand Years in order to break through. That was also Asura God's doing. No one knew how many soul beasts had died beneath those lightning tribulations.

Many soul beasts with powerful bloodlines could not possibly pass through them. It was clear that those lightning tribulations existed to prevent soul beasts from becoming gods.

If they had to wait for the Dragon God to appear, then even if the Soul Beast Clan went extinct, he would never emerge.

All that could be said was that Asura God was utterly shameless.

But fortunately, I solved that problem. Nana used herself, Ziji, Biji, and even the Auspicious Beast—the bodies of all four of them—as bargaining chips to cooperate with me.

How could I refuse that? They directly seized my weakness. While the Martial God Physique gave me immense power, it also came with a certain side effect: it made my desire burn fiercely, especially after I became an adult.

If it could not be dealt with, my body could easily explode. But my abilities were too strong; one or two women simply could not handle it... so I could only become a scumbag.

I had to admit, the Soul Beast Clan was far stronger than humans in this regard.

Bibi Dong said, "So the Dragon God was actually this powerful."

"The Soul Beast Clan cannot become gods... tsk, tsk. It seems Asura God was frightened out of his wits after getting beaten."

When she saw what came next, Bibi Dong's pretty face flushed red.

This Silver Dragon King did not seem very proper either. She actually used such a method.

She had even offered herself.

Xu Fan was no good either. He seemed to be the same kind as Tang Hao, only slightly better.

Heaven Dou City.

Qian Renxue slammed her palm on the table.

"This Xu Fan is truly shameless. He actually does such things with soul beasts."

"This Silver Dragon King is utterly shameless. She seduced him just to become the Dragon God. How could the dignified Silver Dragon King do something like that?"

On the other side.

Ning Rongrong was thrilled.

Her little face was rosy red.

"Is the Soul Beast Clan really that resilient?"

"I wonder when I'll get to experience it. I'm so curious."

"Hehe..."

Meanwhile.

Biji and Ziji stood side by side, their beautiful eyes widened round as they stared at Gu Yue Na in unison.

Their faces were filled with disbelief.

The only sound in the air was that of water.

Biji opened her mouth as though she wanted to say something, yet she had no idea where to begin.

Ziji was even more dumbfounded.

Master... could actually... do something... like this?

Gu Yue Na felt thoroughly uncomfortable under their stares.

The coldness and majesty on the young woman's face could no longer be maintained, and her fair cheeks flushed slightly.

"What are you looking at? What's so interesting?"

"For the future of the Soul Beast Clan, for breaking free from this cage, this... this necessary sacrifice and compromise is worth it! It is strategy! It is wisdom! Do you understand?"

She paused, as if trying to make herself sound more convincing, then hurriedly added, "Didn't Xu Fan say it himself?

Later! Later, we succeeded! The plan worked! The result was good! The process... the process did not matter!"

Biji and Ziji were stunned by Gu Yue Na's explosive reaction. Then they swiftly exchanged a glance and lowered their heads in unspoken understanding.

"Yes, Master is wise."

"Master is farsighted and strategic. This subordinate admires you," Ziji hurriedly added.

How could they dare say a single word of objection?

Could they not see that even Master's ears had turned completely red?

If they kept talking, Master might throw them into the lake for a few days to cool off out of sheer embarrassment and anger.

Only then did Gu Yue Na relax a little.

She wished she could find a crack in the ground and crawl into it.

Xu Fan! You bastard! You bigmouth!

You even said something about... something so embarrassing.

Ahhh! I'm so furious!

At that moment, Gu Yue Na wanted nothing more than to rush out, find Xu Fan, and beat him senseless.

Extreme North Land.

Snow Empress and Ice Empress looked at each other.

Ice Empress swallowed. "Is this the Master Di Tian mentioned? Why does she seem a little foolish?"

Snow Empress shook her head. "Do not say that. At that time, perhaps the Silver Dragon King already knew Xu Fan's future and had a close relationship with him. That was why she placed all her hopes on him."

"The facts proved that she made the right bet."

"That may be true, but it still feels very dangerous."

"Enough, stop talking about them. Our future selves are the same," Snow Empress said with a helpless smile.

"That's true. I definitely have to see what Xu Fan is like, and how he managed to make me like him." Ice Empress bared her little tiger teeth.

The immortal herbs within the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes were incredibly potent.

Most immortal herbs could raise Soul Power by a great deal—five or six levels, even seven or eight levels. They could also improve a Soul Master's talent, so after taking one, becoming a Title Douluo in the future would not be a problem.

The Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and Infernal Delicate Apricot, when combined, could be used for Ice-Fire Body Refining. Although they could not increase Soul Power, they greatly strengthened the physical body.

The Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum was a neutral immortal herb that could strengthen the body and forge an Indestructible Vajra Body.

Aromatic Silk Beauty could help Rongrong's Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda martial soul evolve into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.

Lovesick Heartbreak Red was an even more exceptional immortal herb, with greater effects, though obtaining it was rather difficult.

There were also various other kinds of immortal herbs. The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes might be the only place where immortal herbs could grow. I had never seen immortal herbs anywhere else.

Of course, they might exist elsewhere, and they certainly must. Xiangxiang's grandfather had an immortal herb, for example. Although its Lifespan was somewhat low, it was still an immortal herb.
