I am the son of the Dragon God in Douluo Continent.

Chapter 89: Wang Dong'er, who refuses to admit defeat

Returning to the moment before Gu Yuena infiltrated the Spring of Ice and Fire, Wang Dong'er, standing behind her, looked at the Acacia Heartbreak Red in Gu Yuena's hand with resentment.

The scene of Gu Yuena picking the Acacia Heartbreak Red had startled Wang Dong'er, who was still cultivating.

This made her, who was already very curious, want to see what Gu Yuena was doing.

Why did he suddenly leave the Spring of Ice and Fire instead of protecting Xu Xingyu?

To my surprise, Gu Yuena was actually trying to pick the legendary Love-Sick Heartbreak Red!

As a disciple of the Haotian Sect, Wang Dong'er was once a fan of the Tang Sect before she met the modern Tang Sect.

Strangely enough, whenever Wang Dong'er asked about the Tang Clan when she was a child, her uncles would unhesitatingly recount the Tang Clan's achievements and contributions to the mainland.

If one had to give an evaluation, it would be similar to the propaganda of a pyramid scheme leader or a fanatical believer. However, thanks to this, Wang Dong'er has gained a very deep understanding of many Tang Clan legends.

The most famous of these is the legend of the Acacia Heartbreak Red.

Xiao Wu, the wife of Tang San, the Sea God, ten thousand years ago, was a 100,000-year-old transformed soul beast. In order to save Tang San from the brink of death, she sacrificed her life and became Tang San's first 100,000-year soul ring.

Tang San, having recovered from his injuries, hurriedly fed her the Acacia Heartbreak Red Wine in an effort to save her life.

Thanks to the power of the Acacia Heartbreak Red to bring the dead back to life, to restore flesh and bone, and to revive the dying, her original form did not vanish into nothingness at the moment of sacrifice.

It was precisely because of this that Tang San had the opportunity to revive Xiao Wu, who should have died.

This legend instilled in Wang Dong'er a special longing for love from a young age. She always fantasized that a prince charming would pick a red acacia flower for her to express his love.

Although meeting Xu Xingyu wasn't as romantic and wonderful as she had imagined—after all, no one would willingly be suddenly forced to have a fiancé—overall, she was still very satisfied with Xu Xingyu as her partner.

This person seems to be a bit of a womanizer; his heart will definitely not belong to only himself in the future.

This left Wang Dong'er somewhat frustrated, but there was nothing she could do. Theoretically, she was the one who came later, and if it weren't for this so-called marriage agreement, she would never have crossed paths with Xu Xingyu.

Even so, Wang Dong'er still hoped that the most important part of Xu Xingyu's heart would belong to her, Wang Dong'er.

The only person who could hinder Wang Dong'er's idea was Gu Yuena.

Although Xu Yanxue and Jiang Nannan also compete with each other, neither of them intends to become the most important person to Xu Xingyu. They only hope that Xu Xingyu can have a place of their own in her heart.

This is why Wang Dong'er might be wary of them, but wouldn't target them too much.

But Gu Yuena is different. She has stated more than once that she is Xu Xingyu's legal wife, and she is also the first woman to confirm her relationship with Xu Xingyu.

Faced with a rival who has so many advantages, Wang Dong'er naturally chooses to fight back.

You should know that there is no corner in this world that cannot be dug up; if there is, it's because the hoe isn't big enough.

Moreover, in Wang Dong'er's eyes, the relationship between Gu Yuena and Xu Xingyu was more like a relationship of mutual exploitation than a romantic one.

Gu Yuena needs Xu Xingyu to devise strategies for the soul beast clan, while Xu Xingyu needs Gu Yuena as her henchman.

This can be seen from the previous interactions between Xu Xingyu and Gu Yuena.

This is quite normal. Although Wang Dong'er wasn't entirely clear on how high Gu Yuena's status was among the soul beasts, judging from the fact that she directly transported the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well to the Soul Spirit Realm, her status was definitely comparable to that of the legendary Beast God Di Tian.

It's even very likely that they have already surpassed Di Tian.

However, exploitation is exploitation, and a romantic relationship formed in this way is bound to be impure.

However, after seeing that Gu Yuena had successfully removed the Acacia Heartbreak Red, Wang Dong'er could no longer confidently conclude that Gu Yuena and Xu Xingyu were in a relationship of mutual exploitation.

Because the Love-Sickness Red is a flower that only a devoted lover can pluck, yet it is willing to acknowledge Gu Yuena as its master, which means that the Love-Sickness Red recognizes Gu Yuena's feelings for Xu Xingyu.

This put Wang Dong'er in a dilemma. If Gu Yuena's feelings for Xu Xingyu were genuine, would she still have a chance to take away the most important place in Xu Xingyu's heart?

Just as Wang Dong'er was doubting herself, Youxiang Qiluo Xianpin asked curiously, "Um, what's wrong? That person has already left, or are you feeling unwell?"

Wang Dong'er then realized that she seemed to have been thinking too much, and hadn't even noticed when Gu Yuena left. She quickly waved her hand and said, "It's nothing, it's just that the scene just now was a bit amazing."

Youxiang Qiluo Xianpin agreed, saying, "It is indeed surprising. I never expected that lord would be so deeply in love with that guy at the bottom of the spring. You know, the last time I successfully gained the approval of the Acacia Heartbreak Red was when that person's wife was ten thousand years ago."

"Are you talking about Tang San, the Sea God?" Wang Dong'er asked curiously.

Speaking of Tang San's ancestor, the Fragrant Qiluo Immortal Herb immediately perks up. After all, unlike the other immortal herbs in the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, it personally has a certain fondness for Tang San. However, that might be purely because it is the only one that was picked but not eaten by Tang San or given away to someone else.

It excitedly said, "Of course! Ten thousand years ago, the Sea God Tang San visited our Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well and took away the Love-Sickness Heartbreak Red for his wife."

"Although we don't know why he didn't try to pick the Acacia Heartbreak Red himself, we can see from his willingness to cut off his own limbs to revive his wife that his feelings for her were very deep."

"Sigh, such genuine affection is truly rare." Youxiang Qiluo Xianpin sighed and continued, "I really didn't expect to see someone recognized by the Acacia Heartbreak Red again. I hope she can be with the one she loves forever."

Little did she know that the phrase "together forever" from Youxiang Qiluo Xianpin completely ignited Wang Dong'er's competitive spirit.

Wang Dong'er softly asked, "Does the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye still have the Acacia Heartbreak Red?"

"Indeed, there's another Acacia Flower waiting for you. You're not going to try it too, are you?" Youxiang Qiluo Immortal asked in surprise. "This immortal herb is different from ordinary immortal herbs. If your heart isn't firm enough, even if you vomit blood and die, it might not accept you!"

Before Tang San sealed the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, the once fragrant Qiluo Immortal Herb had witnessed countless couples trying to pluck the Love-Sickness Heartbreak Red, but very few were actually able to take it.

The couples who failed to retrieve the Love-Sickness Red were quickly separated because of its overly strict test.

To some extent, this flower of ultimate love has ruined countless couples because the kind of love it pursues requires one to sacrifice everything for the other.

Many couples fail to pass the test of the "love-sick heartbreak red" because of this. For example, some people cannot give their all because their families still need them, while others believe in a love based on mutual help and support.

In reality, there is no truly supreme form of love in this world, because everyone's concept of love is different.

However, the Love-Sickness Red can only test one kind of love, which is why it is not suitable for determining whether there is love between two people.

The reason why the Fragrant Silk Fairy knew this was because it had overheard Tang San talking to himself when it had already re-established itself in the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

Therefore, Youxiang Qiluo Xianpin did not want the girl in front of her, who had a familiar aura, to end up with a mental breakdown because she was too stubborn about her decision regarding the Love-Sickness Heartbreak Red.

But who is Wang Dong'er? She is the young sect leader of the prestigious Haotian Sect! She is second to none! If Gu Yuena can do it, then she can definitely do it too!
