It really is a little useful! After just a few glances, Ye Linlin and Meng Hongchen's eyes lit up slightly. They had not expected that they would actually be able to obtain the Medicine Chapter and Poison Chapter left by the Tang Sect's ancestor here. As for joining the Tang Sect, forget it. They originally had their own sects.
Just at this time, the voice of the Fragrant Silk Exquisite Immortal Product came, "Hey, have you finished reading the first few pages? Are you willing to join the Tang Sect? If not, the book still cannot be given to you to continue reading. I have sworn an oath to that person."
"Hmm? What oath did you swear?" The Snow Empress raised her pretty eyebrows, and the Snow Sword in her hand wiped across a petal of the Fragrant Silk Exquisite Immortal Product.
"Er, nothing at all. I was just joking," the Fragrant Silk Exquisite Immortal Product was very sensible.
"Mmm, that's fine. You all can continue to read. After you have finished reading, return the book to it. So, you had better memorize it," Huo Yuhao had roughly browsed through it. There was not much on it that was useful to him, so he had simply thrown it to Ye Linlin and Meng Hongchen, these two, one a healing-type and one an expert at using poison.
"Alright," the two girls agreed, and immediately began to read seriously...
Two days! The two girls had spent a full two days' time to clearly recognize the many plants within the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. Among the immortal grasses and poisonous grasses recorded in the Tang Sect's Hidden Weapons Hundred Explanations' Medicine Chapter and Poison Chapter, there were actually more than two-thirds here. It could be seen that the treasure basin was by no means an undeserved reputation. There was also a portion of plants not recorded in the Medicine Chapter and Poison Chapter. The Fragrant Silk Exquisite Immortal Product, under the effect of one of Huo Yuhao's King Authority, had also obediently explained their medicinal properties in detail to Huo Yuhao and the others.
"Alright. Your memory is really astonishing. I have taught you all that I can teach. You are all good students," after a few days of contact, the Fragrant Silk Exquisite Immortal Product had also become familiar with Huo Yuhao's partners. This hundred-thousand-year-old large flower, besides being a little long-winded, its personality was still considerably peaceful. It had also formed a decent friendship with their group.
Huo Yuhao nodded slightly, his gaze turning to one direction. There was precisely the place where the Yearning Heartbroken Grass grew. They had already seen this divine product among immortal grasses several times but had not been in a hurry to make a move. Instead, they had fully understood the characteristics of the surrounding medicinal herbs.
"Yearning Heartbroken Grass, also known as Yearning Heartbroken Red. It looks like a flower but is actually a grass. Its main body is a white, palm-sized flower, in the shape of a peony, without any grass leaves. Below its rhizome is connected to a black Wujue Stone," Huo Yuhao, according to the description in the book, came before the small white flower that looked so weak it was as if a gust of wind could blow it down.
The white flower was in the shape of a peony, but it was even thinner than a peony. It had no fragrance, nor any other decoration. It didn't even have a single leaf. What it had was just a touch of a faint, blood-red color, full of a sad, bloody color.
Yearning Heartbroken Grass, Yearning Heartbroken Red. Born only for the truest love, gone for the truest love.
This divine product among immortal grasses, which also had a hundred-thousand-year realm, on the contrary, did not have its own wisdom and the power of a soul beast. It wasn't that it couldn't evolve. If it chose to evolve, then it would surely become the most powerful existence among all these immortal grasses. However, it did not, because it was unwilling to evolve. What it wanted was just to silently guard that one persistence for love.
"Ahem, who among you wants to give it a try?"
Huo Yuhao's face was not very normal as he greeted his partners. It would be strange if he could pick this blade of grass. If it were his self who had just been reborn into this other world, perhaps he could. But having seen the beauty of the world, he had also, with the passage of time, let go of some of the obsessions in his heart.
Hearing this, the various girls couldn't help but shoot him a white-eyed glare. Immediately, one after another, they came before this Yearning Heartbroken Red, their faces all showing a look of curiosity.
The love story of the Buddha and the scabbard from ten thousand years ago, they had heard it since they were young. At this time, to be in front of the same assessment, how could they suppress the excitement and curiosity in their hearts?
As for the fellow Xie Huanyue, he was also spared. He and Huo Yuhao were two extremes. One was promiscuous, and one did not understand love. The two brothers were arm in arm, watching this group of girls undergo the test.
Huo Yuhao was not stupid. He knew that most of these girls were fond of him. Besides Zhongli Yu, Ma Xiaotao, and Mu Jin, these three women whose age was already approaching maturity, the other few girls, including Ju Zi, were still teenage girls. Huo Yuhao was unwilling to occupy others' lives too early. The final choice was still left to them.
"A flower of no ordinary product, it chooses its master to serve. When picking it, one must be thinking of their beloved in their heart, with sincere and true feelings, and spit out a mouthful of heart's blood to sprinkle on the petals. If there is the slightest bit of being of two minds, even if one spits blood and dies, one must not think of picking the flower. After the flower is picked, as long as it is by this master's side, it will never wither. The stone under the flower is named Wujue. If it is forcefully destroyed, this Yearning Heartbroken Red will also lose all its medicinal power. To consume this grass has the effect of being immortal with heaven and earth, and can at least extend one's life by ten years and greatly increase one's soul power," this was the original words of the introduction to the Yearning Heartbroken Red.
If Huo Yuhao remembered correctly, there should be two Yearning Heartbroken Reds here. In the original world line, Huo Gua had picked one, and the Auspicious Beast, Wang Qiu'er, had also then immediately picked one.
"Just give it a try. Don't be too serious. It's just a boring test transformed from a god who was crazy for love," Huo Yuhao thought for a moment and still spoke out to remind them.
The various girls nodded. If one were to love a person with all one's heart, then to pick this immortal grass would surely be a piece of cake. And the degree of being wholehearted recorded required one to have the awareness of offering everything for the person one loved.
Everyone, from the moment they are born, their identity must first be the child of their parents, then the student of their teacher, the best friend of their classmates, and then the beloved of their desired object.
A person cannot be swayed by their emotions. It is impossible to give up one's everything because of a beloved. That would be unfair to one's family, to one's friends. Huo Yuhao had once given up everything for revenge, leaving his parents and brothers to be sad alone. Many things, only after the precipitation of the years, will one slowly think through and see through.
So, this Yearning Heartbroken Red, which was used to test for pure love, was not just a test from the glass-hearted God of Love, but also a test from Huo Yuhao for these girls.
They all liked Huo Yuhao. But Huo Yuhao hoped even more that they would first learn to cherish themselves and to value their own dreams.
Ju Zi was older and was the first to walk towards this Yearning Heartbroken Red.
She was the smartest among all the girls Huo Yuhao cherished. Compared to the imperfection in the original world line, this time, whether it was her parents or Huo Yuhao, they had all been properly accompanying her by her side.
That day, he had traveled through time and space to meet her when she was young. Under the starry sky, he had said he would be her partner of justice, a partner of justice that belonged solely to her.
The young and ignorant Ju Zi naturally did not understand what Huo Yuhao had meant by a partner of justice that belonged to her. It wasn't until after their separation, in the midnight dreams, that she had time and time again recalled all the things in the Evil Demon Forest, the Fire Evil Tyrant soul spirit, and the posture of the hundred-thousand-year soul beast that had been suppressed with a raise of his hand, as well as in the end, the youth, in his prime, holding a long spear high, single-handedly breaking into the enemy country's general's camp, just to redeem her, who should have lost both her parents.
The ignorant feelings that had only existed between a young boy and a young girl had, under the brewing of time, become more and more mellow. It wasn't until Huo Yuhao was willing to tell her the original story, the humility and ruthlessness under the strong mask of the peerless Empress God of War...
This time, she was still willing to be the Empress God of War. It was just that she would be the Empress of the great Emperor Huo Yuhao. Her man must be the Douluo great emperor who dominated the world! And, if they still had a son in the future, then he should be called Huo Yunhan, Ju Zi's and Huo Yuhao's Huo Yunhan.
Perhaps in this life, by Huo Yuhao's side, there were more outstanding girls, so outstanding that they were far from what the former Tang Wutong could compare to. Even so, Huo Yuhao was still willing to cherish all the girls, including herself. He was no longer as resolute as the former Huo Yuhao. He was willing to evenly divide his love to every girl who loved him.
Gradually, her always-calm eyes began to become gentle. In the depths of her eyes, there was only one figure. A trace of a smile began to appear at the corners of her mouth. She recalled the first time she had seen the young child, Huo Yuhao.
She had once seized an opportunity to be alone with Huo Yuhao and had asked him, "How do you hope I will be in this life?"
Huo Yuhao had just dotingly kissed her, and had said to her by her ear, "Be yourself."
One light and fluttering sentence had made her, who had just learned of the former story, almost cry out.
Unlike other transmigrators, what Huo Yuhao had been doing all along was just to release these people who had been played with by fate. He would never try to control others' lives, including his own.
This time, there would no longer be a God-King high above, grabbing their son and telling her that he would take her son's life, and shamelessly saying that she was afraid of others harming her own child, but was not afraid of harming his child.
Ju Zi's gaze gradually recovered its clarity from her obsession. With a backhand strike, her right hand heavily slapped her own chest.
With a "wah," a mouthful of bright red blood was violently spat out, spraying on the surface of the Yearning Heartbroken Red. The Yearning Heartbroken Red also then trembled violently.
