Bonus Chapter. Enjoy!
============================
The Purple-clothed Man's face was filled with disbelief. He subconsciously took half a step back, and when his voice escaped his lips, he didn't even notice the slight tremble within it: "How is it possible... how can there be such pure Golden Dragon King and Silver Dragon King Bloodlines?!"
Although these Immortal Herb Vicious Beasts had guarded the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well all year round and never stepped a single foot out of this valley, they knew quite a bit about the Dragon Clan because of the dragon Souls of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings.
In the Dragon Clan, Bloodline is paramount, with a hierarchy so strict it's almost cruel; the suppression of lower Bloodlines by higher ones is an instinct carved into the depths of the Soul.
To be able to make the dragon Souls of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings exhibit such an almost "fawning" posture, it could only be submission to a higher-level Bloodline.
The Dragon God Bloodline could not possibly appear in humans. Feeling the two surging auras rising from Gu Yue and Na'er, the answer was as clear as day: it could only be the Golden Dragon King and the Silver Dragon King.
Na'er's silver eyes swept indifferently over the Purple-clothed Man, and she gave a soft huff: "Nothing is impossible."
She had absorbed the Golden Dragon King Bloodline power from Tang Wulin's body; this matter was no longer a secret, and everyone who needed to know already knew.
The changes in her had been observed by her teacher, Yun Ming. With his knowledge and experience, he naturally judged it to be the Golden Dragon King's Bloodline Power. So at this moment, everyone's truly curious gazes fell upon Gu Yue, who was standing beside Na'er.
Aside from Huo Yuhao, no one present had previously known that Gu Yue actually possessed a dragon Bloodline, and such a powerful Silver Dragon King Bloodline at that.
However, everyone understood that now was not the time for questioning, and they could only suppress their myriad of doubts deep within their hearts.
With the crisis averted, the Amorous Douluo Zang Xin, who was suspended in mid-air, withdrew his Sword Intent. The three pairs of silver wings on his back vibrated gently, and he slowly descended from the sky like a falling leaf.
He first glanced at Gu Yue and Na'er. The eyes behind his mask paused on each of them for a moment, and a flash of hard-to-conceal surprise flickered in the depths of his gaze.
He had appeared unyielding when facing the dragon Souls in mid-air just now, but only he knew that beneath that fearless posture, there was ultimately a trace of wariness that he hadn't let anyone see. Facing two genuine Divine Rank dragon Souls, even he wouldn't dare boast of a complete victory.
And now that the crisis had been resolved without bloodshed, it was the best outcome for everyone.
He looked at the Purple-clothed Man with a beaming smile: "Now that your reliance seems to have 'surrendered,' do you still want to test if my sword is sharp?"
The dragon Souls surrendering without a fight, combined with the Amorous Douluo demonstrating genuine Divine Rank combat power—these two things together completely crushed the last shred of resistance in the hearts of the six Vicious Beasts.
The Purple-clothed Man seemed to have resigned himself to fate. He shook his head and let out a long sigh, his voice carrying a hint of helpless weariness: "As you wish. As long as you can obtain the recognition of the Immortal Herbs, you may take them away."
Hearing this, the smile at the corners of Zang Xin's mouth deepened; this was exactly the sentence he wanted.
The Love Sorrow Misty Rain Battle Armor on his body silently decomposed into countless streaks of silver light, slowly receding from his limbs and bones before merging back into his body and vanishing.
Zang Xin, restored to his ordinary robes, turned around and looked at the teenagers behind him who were already unable to contain themselves. He called out: "Did you hear that? Show your talent. If you are favored by an Immortal Herb, you can take it away, even if it's a hundred-thousand-year one."
As soon as he finished speaking, Tang Wulin and the others' eyes lit up simultaneously. Their gazes bypassed Zang Xin and landed on the exotic flowers and rare herbs surrounding the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
As Students of Shrek Academy, they weren't ignorant of these Heaven And Earth Treasures.
The three of them almost simultaneously stepped forward, weaving through the exotic plants along the lakeshore, searching for the Immortal Herbs that suited them.
Na'er walked to her master's wife's side, her long silver hair swaying gently with her steps. The two dragon Souls followed behind her, one on each side, their postures docile and close, showing none of the awe-inspiring power they had displayed when confronting Zang Xin earlier.
"Mistress," Na'er raised her hand and pointed to the two dragon Souls circling around her, "They told me that beneath the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, there is something we need."
Ya Li was slightly taken aback. She didn't answer immediately but raised her eyes to look at Zang Xin. This was the Tang Sect's Forbidden Land, after all; this matter required Zang Xin's nod.
Every word of Na'er's had just fallen clearly into Zang Xin's ears. He raised an eyebrow and lightly stroked his chin with his slender fingers, reflecting for a moment.
These two dragon Souls clearly couldn't be used by the Tang Sect. In that case, it was better to do them a favor.
After all, if Gu Yue and Na'er hadn't stepped forward just now, a fierce battle between him and the two Divine Rank dragon Souls would likely have been unavoidable, and it was hard to say who would have won or lost.
Zang Xin had always been clear about debts of gratitude and grievances; he acknowledged this favor.
A moment later, he nodded: "This is also your Opportunity."
A flash of gratitude appeared in Ya Li's emerald eyes. She turned to look at Na'er, reaching out to gently brush the silver strands of hair on Na'er's shoulder, her tone gentle: "Be careful."
Na'er gave a bright smile, filled with a young girl's unique vibrancy and confidence: "Don't worry, Mistress. With these two dragon Souls here, we won't be in any danger."
Subsequently, Na'er and Gu Yue walked to the edge of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and leaped in together, their figures instantly vanishing from everyone's sight.
Zang Xin withdrew his gaze from the lake's surface, turned around, and reached out to lightly pat Huo Yuhao's shoulder.
"Stop looking, kid. They have the dragon Souls protecting them; nothing will happen. Right now, you should think about what Immortal Herb to choose."
Huo Yuhao withdrew his gaze from the gradually calming ripples on the lake and nodded.
Zang Xin turned his attention back to the six Vicious Beasts with complex expressions across from him: "Brother Luo, it's time for you to give us an introduction."
The Purple-clothed Man sighed: "In the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, besides the six of us, there are sixteen types of hundred-thousand-year or older Heaven And Earth Treasures."
The Purple-clothed Man turned his gaze to Huo Yuhao, his deep purple eyes filled with extremely complex emotions.
After a few moments of silence, the Purple-clothed Man finally spoke again. His tone couldn't be called enthusiastic, but it was peaceful: "You can tell me about your situation. I... can recommend an Immortal Herb that suits you."
Ever since they discovered the dragon Souls of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings, these Immortal Herb Vicious Beasts had been thinking about how to escape the Tang Sect's control.
But now the dragon Souls had surrendered without a fight, their greatest trump card was gone, and years of effort had turned into bubbles in an instant.
With their hopes shattered, they had no choice but to continue living at the Tang Sect's mercy. This sudden submissiveness was less a matter of sincerity and more a helpless move after recognizing the situation.
Huo Yuhao's Spirit Power had now reached Rank 70, and he was lacking a Spirit Soul to make a Breakthrough.
An Opportunity to obtain a Vicious Beast Spirit Soul was something that could be sought but not easily found; he had to seize it.
He straightened his expression and met the Purple-clothed Man's gaze frankly. When he spoke, his tone was calm and solemn, neither intentionally ostentatious nor falsely humble.
"Just turned fourteen. Spirit Power... Rank 70."
As the words fell, the lakeshore suddenly went silent. Even the rustling sound of the wind brushing against the grass seemed to be magnified several times at that moment.
The pupils of the six Vicious Beasts constricted sharply almost simultaneously. With their Realm, they could tell before that this boy's Spirit Power fluctuations far exceeded those of his peers.
But perception was one thing; when the specific numbers of fourteen years old and Rank 70 were placed before them, the impact still far exceeded their imagination.
To the side, the composed smile originally hanging on Zang Xin's face also froze for an instant. The fingers he had tucked into his sleeves unconsciously tightened slightly. Although he didn't lose his composure, a genuine flicker of emotion passed through his usually calm eyes.
He knew Huo Yuhao was exceptionally gifted, but hearing with his own ears that his Spirit Power was already at Rank 70 was still like a heavy hammer striking his heart.
Huo Yuhao then added: "My Spirit is the Mental-type Spirit Eyes."
Hearing this, the six Vicious Beasts almost instinctively looked at each other, thinking to themselves that he was indeed a worthy descendant of Spirit Ice.
However, they then thought that this person, also named Huo Yuhao, possessed talent even more terrifying than that of his ancestor who became a god Ten Thousand Years ago.
The Spirit Ice Douluo of that year was certainly brilliant enough to make the entire continent take notice, but at fourteen, he definitely did not have a Rank 70 cultivation.
