Chapter 450 The rare days of leisure were soon shattered again.
The water of the Lake of Life, like crushed stars and morning dew, ripples with a pale turquoise color all year round. In the past few days, peach blossoms have begun to drift along the lake shore, and a few peach seedlings have even sprouted.

The pink and white petals fall into the water and drift with the current, spreading out circles of extremely faint fragrance, even the wind that sweeps across the lake carries a touch of tenderness.

Su Ran leaned against the branches of the old tree in the middle of the lake. He was dressed in a moon-white long robe, his dark hair loosely tied with a peach blossom branch, and a few strands of hair fell over his shoulders, intertwining with the petals falling down.

Holding a peach petal in her hand, she lightly twirled it with her fingertips, and tiny golden rays of light spilled from the petal tip, floating onto the lake surface. The light was not scorching, but rather warm and gentle, making the surrounding petals fragrant and warm.

He gazed quietly at the peaceful scene in the Lake of Life, but his thoughts were a jumbled mess.

When he first opened his eyes, what came into view was a silver-haired girl with cold lips holding a elixir, which she fed into his throat.

The girl's face was filled with surprise when she saw him wake up.

A gentle and beautiful woman dressed in a green dress was pounding medicine not far away. Hearing the master's exclamation, she quickly turned her gaze over.

Without even washing the medicine off their hands, they gathered around to watch. They saw that the young man had an extraordinary appearance, his pupils shimmered with a peach-blossom light, and his face was full of joy.

Two beautiful women's faces hovered above his head, their eyes wide with curiosity:
"Are you awake?"

At that moment, Su Ran recognized the silver-haired girl and the green-haired beauty.

Countless tens of thousands of years ago, perhaps hundreds of thousands, or maybe millions of years ago, there was a great war between divine beasts in the realm of gods.

The Dragon God was once the most powerful deity in the divine realm. Even if the five great god-kings of the current divine realm committee joined forces, they might not be able to suppress him. He held the two divine powers of creation and destruction and led the divine beasts to live in the divine realm.

However, gods and mythical beasts are difficult to coexist, and the debate continues.

The first generation of evil, asura, and destruction god kings joined forces, leading thousands of gods in a great battle against the divine beasts led by the dragon god.

This great battle ended with the number of gods reduced to a few hundred, almost all the divine beasts perished, and the Dragon God splitting into two, transforming into the Golden Dragon King and the Silver Dragon King. The Silver Dragon King escaped into the mortal realm through the portal of time and space and disappeared without a trace.

Since then, soul beasts have been unable to become gods, forever stuck at the million-year limit.

This silver-haired girl is the incarnation of the Silver Dragon King, and also the ruler of all Soul Masters. She has been lying low for countless years, all for the sake of taking revenge on the gods.

The young girl possessed an exquisitely beautiful yet aloof demeanor, remaining cold and distant to everyone except for this Peach Blossom Immortal Master, at which point she would instantly transform into a gentle smile. She hastily gave herself a name:
"My name is Gu Yue, and I am the king here. Would you like to stay here and be my queen?"

"I am Brigitte," the beautiful woman in the green dress introduced herself.

Huh? Wait a minute?

queen?!
……

Yes.

You heard it right.

The goddess's teacher, the Peach Blossom God King, was invited to stay—to become the Beast King!

Oh no, to be precise, it's the Beast Queen.

This dramatic scene left Su Ran both amused and exasperated.

His current state is neither terrible nor good.

The life-creating barrier and the spirit-dispelling mist within his body are, after all, primordial elements of the divine realm, and are not easily eliminated. However, they cannot cause substantial harm to his life, and his strength can still be maintained at or above the divine level.

However, when he left the City of Slaughter, he used his remaining divine power for long-distance teleportation to erase traces of time and space, so it is indeed not advisable for him to make any major moves recently.

What gave Su Ran a headache was not Gu Yue, the Silver Dragon King, or the ferocious beasts like Bi Ji.

He has been famous for thousands of years, and even a starved camel is bigger than a horse; he cannot be easily manipulated by a few ferocious beasts.

Rather, it was his female disciples from back then.

The exceptional talents I've trained have grown up, and they're becoming a bit uncontrollable.

Regardless, these girls still need to be taken care of. It will take him at least two years, or as little as a few months, to recover to his former glory.

Before that, taking a break by this tranquil lake and thinking about the future might be a good choice.

"..."

Su Ran lay leisurely on the ancient tree by the Lake of Life, thinking to herself.

Stillness allows for change, and change can influence everything.

Gu Yue sat on the ancient vine swing under the tree branch, swinging back and forth.

Life moves slowly, as slowly as the water in a lake, neither hurried nor slow.

At dawn, the young man woke up first; he no longer had the habit of sleeping in. However, he never disturbed the girl, but simply sat quietly, watching the morning light spread across the lake, gently cleansing his body of impurities.

When the girl sat up, rubbing her eyes, he simply smiled slightly. A special peach blossom drifted by, like a mixture of crabapple and peach blossoms. The girl gently put it in her mouth, and the petal quickly melted. His silver eyes were full of laughter.

Because she discovered that this peach blossom contained healing power, healing the Asura sword energy that had remained in her body for tens of thousands of years.

He must be my perfect match, a match made in heaven.

That's why they helped me like this!
When it comes to relationship problems, Gu Yue's cold mind is like it's been doused with lava, burning her brain to a crisp, and her mind is filled with thoughts of love and romance.

The afternoon sun is warmest, a rare moment when the Lake of Life can enjoy its warmth. Spirit fish leap and frolic in the lake. Gu Yue condenses a wisp of silver-blue soul power from her fingertips, which falls onto the water's surface. The spirit fish gather around, nuzzling her fingertips with their heads. Then, she catches two plump spirit fish with her other hand and smiles at Su Ran:
"Shall we have fish tonight?"

The young man sat on the treetop, his gaze so gentle it seemed to melt hearts, and gently shook his head in refusal.

Dusk is the most melancholic time. Su Ran's shadow was stretched long and fell on Gu Yue under the tree, making it seem as if the two of them had become one.

The young man took out a jade flute, its body carved from a peach tree branch, with delicate peach blossom patterns inlaid between the holes. He brought it to his lips and played, the flute's sound clear and melodious, mixed with the gentle fragrance of peach blossoms, drifting far away, yet tinged with sorrow.

Gu Yue asked, "What are you worried about?"

Su Ran replied calmly, "You probably wouldn't understand."

Gu Yue was unaware of Su Ran's sorrow.

Su Ran did not understand Gu Yue's meaning.

Gu Yue's tone turned colder: "I understand. Don't worry, once I recover, I will definitely avenge you."

Those two damned, despicable bastards, the Asura God and the Evil God.

Just you wait.

I will kill you!
……

The Asura God, who had been enjoying a peaceful retirement in a picturesque place in the God Realm and hadn't been involved in affairs for a long time, sneezed several times, his eyes full of doubt:
"Such a chilling killing intent?"

Who's talking badly about me behind my back?

"Am I really getting old, starting to get sick and catch colds like ordinary people?"

……

"My lord, something terrible has happened!"

"So many Soul Masters! So many Soul Masters have entered the Star Dou Great Forest!"

The peaceful days didn't last long. Di Tian and Xiong Jun, who were in charge of guarding the ominous place, rushed to the Lake of Life in a panic to report the news.
