The spring on the left is entirely red, with steam rising from it. The spring on the right, on the other hand, is completely different; its surface is a calm, still, icy blue.

The two springs are clearly distinct, representing the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

Dai Huabin stood on the edge of the cliff, glanced down, and took a deep breath. Seeing him like this, Ice Empress scoffed.

"What are you daydreaming about? Do I have to ask you to leave?"

Dai Huabin turned to look at her. "The altitude below is quite high; I can't fly."

Ice Empress rolled her eyes at him and grabbed Dai Huabin's wrist with her small hand.

Ice Empress's hands are small, with delicate, slightly cool skin that feels incredibly soft and smooth against the wrist.

Dai Huabin felt his heart race, after all, the girl in front of him was an absolutely stunning little girl.

As the two drew closer, Ice Empress's aura, a blend of snow and a subtle fragrance, wafted over them.

"Thank me for my blessing!" Ice Empress raised her chin and said arrogantly, then pulled him and jumped.

The wind whistled in my ears.

Ice Empress unleashed a layer of ice-blue protective shield around himself, easily neutralizing the force of gravity as he fell.

The two landed lightly at the bottom of the valley.

As soon as I landed, an extremely rich and intense aroma of plants wafted over me.

All sorts of strangely shaped plants are scattered throughout the valley.

Dai Huabin's gaze swept over this precious land.

The Star Luo Spirit Pearl was not far away, its palm-sized golden fruit atop a pitch-black branch, radiating a soft glow.

This is the best bargaining chip to obtain the Snow Empress Embryo.

This thing is a perfect match for the Star Crown Martial Soul of Xu Jiujiu Xu Jiawei of the Star Luo Emperor. There's no doubt that Xu Jiawei would be tempted.

Who is it?

A clear, melodious female voice suddenly rang out in the valley.

Immediately afterwards, a large pink flower swayed and turned around, its petals unfurling with an eerie, alluring charm.

It is truly Aromatic Silk Beauty.

"Did that person send you?" Youyou asked tentatively.

Dai Huabin released Ice Empress's hand, took a step forward, and said calmly:

"Never mind who we are. We're just a bunch of resources kept in someone else's backyard. Do you really think you're the masters of this place?"

Upon hearing this, Youyou immediately flew into a rage, her petals snapping upright. "What nonsense are you spouting! This is our territory!"

Dai Huabin was too lazy to engage in verbal sparring with her, so he turned and raised an eyebrow at Ice Empress.

Ice Empress instantly understood.

After spending a few days with Dai Huabin, she figured out his tactics.

If you can take action, don't just talk.

Ice Empress lightly touched the ground with her toes, and an indescribable, terrifying chill suddenly erupted from her center.

"The Domain of Eternal Freeze!"

A halo of icy blue light swept across the entire area, even suppressing the blazing Yangquan Yang Spring on the left side of the valley, dimming its flames.

A thick layer of frost quickly covered the surrounding ordinary plants.

The oppressive aura of the four hundred thousand-year-old overlord of the Far North was released without any concealment.

The petals trembled from the Youyou, but the little creature still struggled to stay upright.

"You dare to act recklessly! If that person descends, you'll be in for a world of hurt!"

Dai Huabin walked up to Youyou and looked down at her:

"I don't have time to listen to your nonsense. Take the goods and buy your life."

Youyou instantly panicked. "What do you want?"

"Fragrant and exquisite elixir, plus Star Luo Spirit Pearl, Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew, Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum- Narcissus Jade Muscle Bone." Dai Huabin spoke very quickly, directly reciting the names of the dishes.

Youyou these names, Youyou's heart trembled.

"You... how did you know all this? No way! These are the most precious celestial items, that person instructed me to..."

"Hmph! Who do you think you are?"

The Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and the Infernal Delicate Apricot, who had been silent all along, couldn't stand it any longer.

Two auras, one of ice and one of fire, rose up, attempting to join forces to resist the Ice Empress's domain.

Ice Empress sneered. Playing with ice in front of her?

"You're asking for it!"

Ice Empress raised his right hand, and a gigantic ice crystal hand instantly condensed in the air, slamming down with destructive, extreme cold power.

"The Ice Emperor's Wrath!"

A muffled boom resounded.

The leaves of the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass were shattered by the blow, and the Infernal Delicate Apricot were almost frozen out. The two 100,000-year-old Immortal Herb were completely defeated and had no chance to fight back.

Youyou was completely dumbfounded when she saw her two older brothers being instantly defeated.

Just who is this little girl in front of me?

This terrifying strength definitely surpasses that of an ordinary Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast!

"Should we give it to them or not?" Dai Huabin asked again.

Youyou gave in.

The petals drooped helplessly, releasing a pink elixir. Then, it directed several vines to uproot the four Immortal Herbs that Dai Huabin had specifically requested and handed them over.

After receiving the items, Dai Huabin took out a specially made jade box from his storage ring and packed them all in.

He could have taken more to bring to Wang Dong'er and the others, but he didn't dare.

The waters behind Wang Dong'er run deep; who knows if that person left any marks on her?

If I bring the Immortal Herb back here and attract that person's attention, I'll become a sitting duck.

I'm still too weak to take any risks.

Looking at the few empty patches of soil, she muttered Youyou:

"You wait, until that person's messenger arrives..."

Dai Huabin patted the package full of jade boxes and chuckled:

"Then you can wait here. Bing'er, let's go."

Ice Empress grabbed Dai Huabin's hand again, and the two transformed into a streak of light, soaring into the sky and leaving the valley shrouded in poisonous miasma.

As soon as Dai Huabin and Ice Empress left, the oppressive feeling of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well dissipated instantly.

The Aromatic Silk Beauty was panting heavily, even though she had no lungs. The pink petals trembled wildly, jumping up and down in anger.

"I'm so angry! Where did these barbarians come from! That blond kid, and that perverted woman!"

Youyou shouted into the air.

"When that person's messenger arrives, I'll make sure he gives that blond brat a good beating! Hang him up and beat him!"

The Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass not far away shook off the ice shards from its leaves and remained silent.

It had just faced the Ice Empress's attack head-on; the pure, extreme coldness made even this 100,000-year-old Immortal Herb with the Ultimate Ice attribute feel its heart tremble.

The opponent's cultivation and combat power completely overwhelmed it.

Even the Infernal Delicate Apricot lay listlessly by the hot spring, their light dimming considerably.

Neither of the two big shots responded to Youyou's comment.

They knew very well that if a fight broke out, that person's messenger might not be able to handle the little girl from before.

On the other side, at the outskirts of Sunset Forest.

Dai Huabin and Ice Empress did not linger in the human world. They directly opened the portal to the Undead Semi-Plane and went inside.

Within the demiplane, the pile of Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow still emitted a ghostly blue light.

The Ice Empress went straight to the iceberg as soon as he entered. "I'm going to continue refining it, don't bother me unless it's important."

Dai Huabin nodded.

He found an open space not far from the iceberg, sat down cross-legged, and laid out the jade box he had just acquired.
