The Second Divine Ring, Outshining All

It was visible to the naked eye: the red and white emotional hues of the Goddess of Love finally became coordinated and balanced after she retracted a wisp of her divine sense and incorporated a hundred thousand years of cultivation.

The sharp, resentful aura she previously exuded also became peaceful as a result.

The Goddess of Love pushed her hand forward, sending out a ring of red-gold light, then clapped her hands and said, "Done."

That red-gold ring hummed as it rose into the air, transforming once more into a divine ring that coordinated with the first, standing guard behind the Dragon Emperor.

--Lovesick Heartbreak Red martial soul, second red-gold ring.

The Dragon Emperor lightly touched this divine ring, and the information regarding the soul skill immediately fed back into his mind...

The Lovesick Heartbreak Red possessed two attributes in total: Life and Spirit.

The Life attribute was primarily manifested in its medicinal efficacy: reversing life and death, and regenerating blood and bone.

As for the Spirit attribute, it manifested as the lie-detecting ability of the Crow-Absolute Stone and the heart-probing function of the flower bud that struck directly at one's true intentions.

Therefore, the second ring presided over by the Goddess of Love was inevitably a spirit-type skill, a joint effort between the Crow-Absolute Stone and the flower bud.

The Dragon Emperor was quite wise; after closing his eyes for only a moment, he fully grasped the second divine skill of his body-integrated martial soul.

Various extreme emotions flashed through his pure golden eyes, but they were all sorted and regulated one by one, returning to a state of calm.

"Hoo~"

Exhaling a breath of floral fragrance, the Dragon Emperor's face, which had remained unmoved for eons, finally revealed a hint of joy: "The harvest is bountiful."

He looked back at the Goddess of Love and said: "I truly look forward to the third ring skill of the Lovesick Heartbreak Red in the future."

The Goddess of Love smiled slightly and replied: "You shall replace the name of the Crow-Absolute Stone and become the truly most steadfast existence under the heavens."

"Let us go."

The Dragon Emperor waved his hand and said: "It is time to awaken Little Fire and Little Water."

The Holy Dragon King followed closely behind him and cautioned with concern: "My Emperor, the dragon souls of Younger Brother Fire and Younger Sister Water are already on the verge of dissipating. If this humble one were to forcibly awaken them, would it not...?"

"Rest assured," the Dragon Emperor said without stopping his pace. "There will be a gentle method that does not involve force."

He led the Holy Dragon King and the Goddess of Love, walking halfway around the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, and arrived at the bank opposite the location of the Lovesick Heartbreak Red.

This was the fourth best planting spot on the bank of the spring, excluding the Yin and Yang poles where the Lovesick Heartbreak Red was located.

A large flower shaped like a colorful little sun occupied a vast patch of soil here.

Its appearance was magnificent and regal, and the surrounding water and fire dragon qi were constantly being forcibly plundered by it.

Under its graceful and stunning radiance, even the Eight-Petal Immortal Orchid, which was also an immortal-grade herb, seemed to have been reduced to a mere companion piece.

This large, colorful crystal flower was none other than the one known as the King of Immortal Herbs:

The eleventh-grade, peerless immortal medicine.

--Aromatic Silk Beauty.

The Dragon Emperor raised a single eyebrow, looked at the small orchid in the area occupied by the Aromatic Silk Beauty, and said with some surprise: "You even keep a concubine; you really have become a local tyrant in this place..."

Seeing that the large colorful flower still did not react, the Dragon Emperor stopped being polite.

He held the gold-red peony in his left hand, strode forward, and kicked the base of the tulip's stem.

"Ouch~~"

A pained cry that struck directly at the fragile heart of a male echoed dully along the red and blue dividing line.

Just then, a sharp shout rang out on the red-polarized bank:

"Do not bully Xiangxiang!"

A woman with a beautiful face, dressed in red robes, flew out from the Infernal Delicate Apricot.

She landed beside the Aromatic Silk Beauty, leaned against its stem, and stared at the three intruders with a guarded expression.

The Dragon Emperor looked at this stunning woman in red, then glanced at the Eight-Petal Immortal Orchid accompanying the Aromatic Silk Beauty nearby.

He was momentarily stunned: having a big one and keeping a small one, he really had become a king in this place.

At this moment, a male voice emerged from the Aromatic Silk Beauty: "I am fine, Little Fire."

A man with a handsome face and a tall, slender figure, dressed in ancient purple robes, stepped out from the Aromatic Silk Beauty and patted the Infernal Delicate Apricot who was embracing him.

The Dragon Emperor gave an unkind laugh and said: "Yo ho, look who has awakened? The King of Immortal Herbs?"

Upon being praised in such a manner, the Aromatic Silk Beauty hurriedly broke free from the arms of the Infernal Delicate Apricot.

He glanced at the gold-red peony flower, bowed, and said: "I dare not, I dare not. This humble one is merely a small colorful flower in your garden."

The Dragon Emperor's expression remained gloomy as he said: "Then, since I have graced this place for so long, as the local tyrant of this garden, not only did you fail to lead the others to welcome me, but you even took the lead in playing dead?"

"What is the meaning of this? Hmm!"

The Lovesick Heartbreak Red on his left wrist swayed in the wind, and a rich peony fragrance expanded along the edge of the spring, pressing down on the surrounding greenery until it could not lift its head.

Even the unruly Infernal Delicate Apricot found herself unable to stand straight for a moment.

The Aromatic Silk Beauty hurriedly explained: "We did not know the intent of your visit, yet we dared not disturb your pleasure in touring the garden, and thus we kept a low profile, prepared to let you pluck whatever herbs you wished."

"Oh?" Dragon Emperor pinched the chin of Aromatic Silk Beauty with two fingers, lifting its entire face up.

He turned it left and right to inspect it, remarking, "You really do have a bit of charm."

"Are you certain I can pick and choose as I please?" A playful smile curled at the corners of Dragon Emperor's mouth.

Though its chin was still being held, Aromatic Silk Beauty flattered him, "I am honored by your discerning eye and your praise. Perhaps..."

It asked tentatively, "Could you... pick a little less?"

Dragon Emperor tossed its chin aside, turned, and looked toward the surface of the red and blue pool, saying, "I don't even have an eye for you six motley things."

Having said that, he simply tucked away the Lovesick Heartbreak Red on his left wrist, and the peony fragrance that had been suppressing the valley vanished along with it.

"Phew~" Aromatic Silk Beauty finally let out a breath of relief, bowed slightly, and said, "Thank you for your mercy."

Recalling how Holy Dragon King had addressed the person before him, it decided to use the same title: "My Emperor."

"I do not know why you have awakened this humble king, or what business you might have?"

Hearing this honorific, which was exactly one level higher than "King," Dragon Emperor turned his gaze back and said, "You have all stayed here in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well for so many years; you must have a way to contact the two dragon souls at the bottom of the pool, right?"

"We do." Aromatic Silk Beauty dared not hide the truth, but could not help asking out of curiosity, "I do not know why you wish to contact those two, or what your purpose is?"

Dragon Emperor glared sideways with his pure gold eyes and said, "Don't ask what you shouldn't."

"Yes." Aromatic Silk Beauty gestured to the surroundings, "Everyone, show yourselves."

A blue-haired youth immediately rose from the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass on the yin side and leaped down.

Besides him, Ink Jade Divine Bamboo, Gazing Autumn Begonia, and Earth Dragon Golden Melon all poked their heads out from the lush greenery and floated over.

"Little Ice, Mo Mo, Gua Gua, and Little Fire, all of you come up and offer your greetings first," Aromatic Silk Beauty beckoned.

"Yes."

The five immortal-grade fierce beasts formed a line and bowed their heads toward Dragon Emperor, saying, "Greetings, My Emperor."

Dragon Emperor did not waste words: "Did you five hear my requirements clearly?"

The five immortal-grade fierce beasts exchanged a glance with Aromatic Silk Beauty, then nodded in unison.

Purple, red, blue, cyan, black, and yellow.

Six rays of strange light bloomed from their bodies, and six waves of intoxicating fragrance refreshed the heart and spirit.

Author's Note:

If the eleventh-grade Aromatic Silk Beauty is the King of Immortal Herbs from the original work;

Then the twelfth-grade Lovesick Heartbreak Red should be: the Emperor.

Whether animal or plant, both hold the status of an emperor; this is indeed a very coincidental point.
