"Find a secluded spot later and absorb it properly. The effects vary from person to person, so don't rush the absorption; guide it slowly and refine it gradually."

"Once you've absorbed it all, your Soul Power, physique, and talent will all increase by one level."

Liu Erlong stood up from the chair.

"Then let's go to my Small House in the woods. It's usually a place only I can go to, so I won't be disturbed by anyone else."

Led by Liu Erlong, the group headed in that direction.

The group followed Liu Erlong through the woods behind the academy, and after walking for about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, they arrived in front of a Wooden House.

The Wooden House was small, with gray tiles and white walls. In front of the door was a small open space enclosed by a fence, on which several morning glories climbed.

Liu Erlong pushed open the door and stepped aside to let everyone in. The room was simply furnished with a wooden table, a few chairs, and several Meditation Cushion in the corner.

She closed the door, dusted off her hands, and tilted her head slightly towards Ye Lin: "Alright. This is it. Nobody's coming."

Dai Mubai stood in the center of the room, his hands hanging at his sides, his breathing heavier than before.

Ma Hongjun stood next to him, rubbing his hands on his trouser legs a couple of times, a smile he couldn't quite suppress.

Oscar leaned against the wall.

Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing stood side by side by the window, their eyes both fixed on Ye Lin.

Xiao Wu stood beside Ye Lin.

Tang San stood at the very back of the crowd, his mind racing.

My Immortal Herb! My Immortal Herb!

The thought of losing her Immortal Herb made her feel a tightness in her chest.

This is a favor I did for you, how did it end up benefiting Ye Lin?

Oh well, it's alright, I guess.

It would be alright if I could get even one Immortal Herb.

After all, they are all transformative and wonderful products.

Anyway, the Immortal Herb are going to be given to them, so it doesn't matter who gives them to them.

Our relationship isn't affected by this small favor.

I wonder which Immortal Herb will fall upon my head?

But each one is excellent.

Ye Lin took out the first herb from his Storage Soul Tool; it was an orchid.

He handed the plant to Oscar: "Eight-Petal Immortal Orchid. Here you go."

Oscar took the herb, turned it over, and then looked up at Ye Lin.

Ye Lin nodded at him.

Oscar stuffed the grass into his mouth, chewed it twice, swallowed it, walked to the Meditation Cushion in the corner, sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and began to refine it.

Ye Lin took out the second herb.

The grass was entirely fiery red.

He handed it to Ma Hongjun: "Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower."

Ma Hongjun took it, flipped it over in his hand, grinned, put it in his mouth, chewed it a couple of times, then walked to the corner of the wall, found a Meditation Cushion, sat down, and began refining it.

The third plant resembled a chrysanthemum. Ye Lin handed it to Dai Mubai: "Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum."

Dai Mubai took the herb and glanced at Ye Lin.

Ye Lin nodded at him.

Dai Mubai stuffed the grass into his mouth, walked to the corner of the wall, sat down, and closed his eyes.

Ye Lin took out the fourth plant from the cloth bag.

It was covered with a golden halo, exuding an aura of preciousness.

He handed it to Ning Rongrong: "Aromatic Silk Beauty."

Ning Rongrong took the herb, a slight smile curving her lips.

Thanks, Brother Lin.

She walked to the window, found a spot to sit cross-legged, stuffed some grass into her mouth, and closed her eyes.

Ye Lin took out the fifth plant from the cloth bag. The plant was covered with a deep red light, and its petals were layered, each one looking as if it had been soaked in blood. It was attached to an extremely heavy rock.

He held the herb up in his hand and turned it towards Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing. "This is the Lovesick Heartbreak Red,' the best medicinal herb among them."

"Only by thinking of one's beloved and spitting out a mouthful of heart's blood can one remove it; otherwise, even Titled Douluo would not be able to remove it."

He paused, his gaze sweeping across the two faces. "Which of you two wants to try first?"

Zhu Zhuqing walked up from the window.

She stood before Ye Lin, looking down at the deep red flower, and fell silent.

Then she looked up and glanced at Ye Lin.

There was nothing superfluous in that glance.

She smiled slightly, raised her hand, and patted her chest.

Her chest trembled, and a mouthful of blood spurted from her mouth, landing on the flower petals.

The petals of the Lovesick Heartbreak Red, flashed briefly upon contact with blood, then the entire flower detached from Ye Lin's palm and fell into Zhu Zhuqing's outstretched hand.

Zhu Zhuqing held the flower in her hand, glanced at Ye Lin, nodded, turned around and walked to the corner of the wall. She found a Meditation Cushion to sit on, put the petals in her mouth, closed her eyes and began to refine them.

Tang San stood at the very back of the crowd and witnessed the entire scene from beginning to end.

His pupils dilated in shock.

"No, what's going on?"

"How could Zhu Zhuqing pluck the Lovesick Heartbreak Red? What makes her think she can do that?"

"I remember in my previous life, the first thing Zhu Zhuqing thought of when she closed her eyes was Dai Mubai's romantic escapades. It wasn't pure at all. Why should she be able to get rid of him?"

"Could it be that he's thinking of Ye Lin?"

"No way, why is Ye Lin eating so well?"

He stared at Zhu Zhuqing's back as she sat cross-legged in the corner, his teeth clenched.

Without the Lovesick Heartbreak Red, Xiao Wu can no longer sacrifice herself.

Tang San sighed. Well then, since that's how it is, he wouldn't let Xiao Wu suffer like that.

That would be too painful, and it wouldn't be good for Xiao Wu either. I've already been reborn; I can't let Xiao Wu suffer again.

He had just swallowed his anger when Xiao Wu walked up from beside Ye Lin Ye Lin, stood in front of him, tilted her head back, her rabbit ears slightly lowered, and spoke with a hint of resentment in her voice.

"Brother Lin, what good stuff have you prepared for me?"

Ye Lin stood in front of her and felt a chill run down his spine.

He coughed.

"Of course it's the same. Otherwise, why would I ask you two who came first? It means the same thing."

He took out a second Lovesick Heartbreak Red and held it up in his hand.

That flower was exactly the same as the first one, deep red all over, with layers upon layers of petals.

Xiao Wu looked at the flower, snorted, raised her hand and slapped her chest, spitting a mouthful of blood onto the petals.

The flower fell off that stubborn rock and landed in her hand.

Clutching the flower, she walked to the corner, found a Meditation Cushion to sit on, put the petals in her mouth, and closed her eyes.

Tang San's eyes widened once again.

There's actually a second Lovesick Heartbreak Red flower inside the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well?

How come I didn't know?

He shifted his gaze from Zhu Zhuqing to Xiao Wu, and then back again.

So many changes have occurred in this lifetime.

There's even a second one of this exquisite plant.

But that's fine too.

I actually think that suffering is a form of progress for people.

Now that Xiao Wu possesses the Lovesick Heartbreak Red, she can still offer herself as a sacrifice for me.

How can you see a rainbow without going through wind and rain?

Only when Xiao Wu experiences pain will she realize the depth of our feelings, and only then can our relationship last.
