[System, help me find the best place for a date.]

Ding! The system recommends: Aurora Land.
As Timothy pondered where to take Sylvia, whose eyes shimmered like autumn waters, the system's voice suddenly echoed in his mind.
The Blessing of the Nine Dragons was indeed a powerful asset, but finding the perfect spot for a date was just as crucial.
"Aurora Land?"
The system didn't just suggest Aurora Land,it also recommended a few other stunning locations.
There was the Frostbite Kingdom, the Deep Sea Coral Reefs...
Each place was breathtaking in its own way.
But at the top of the list was still Aurora Land.
Timothy quickly skimmed through the options and settled on Aurora Land. Find more to read at m_v l|-NovelBin.net
Aurora Land was located at the northernmost point of the Elant continent.
The sky there was always illuminated by the most brilliant auroras.
Especially around Valentine's Day in the summer, the auroras became even more dazzling.
The sky would be painted with vibrant colors, and from that northern vantage point, you could even see the dust and stars of the cosmos.
The only downside? The environment was harsh, and massive, dangerous beasts roamed the area.
There were hardly any human kingdoms there. Aside from the local residents who practiced strange and mystical arts, the occasional traveler would only dare to take a quick glance at the stunning auroras before hurrying away, fearing an encounter with the powerful beasts.
But for Timothy, this was the perfect choice.
Massive, dangerous beasts?
No matter how strong they were, could they really be stronger than Goddess Sylvia?
"Honey, I'm taking you somewhere special. We'll head back to Sky Sanctuary later tonight," Timothy said, gently taking Sylvia's hand.
"Where are we going?" Sylvia asked, her curiosity piqued.
"You'll see when we get there. Otherwise, it wouldn't be a surprise, would it?" Timothy smiled.
He summoned Azura, who flew over from a distance, and the two of them took off, leaving Sky Sanctuary behind.
Since Azura took off from the back of the temple, no one noticed them leaving.
But Elder Turner, who had just stepped outside and happened to glance up at the sky, froze.
"Strange... Why is Timothy leaving again? Didn't he just return yesterday? Wait... is that... the Goddess?" Elder Turner's old, cloudy eyes suddenly widened.
The Goddess is riding on Azura's back with Timothy... and they're sitting so close together!
"Could it be... those two giant serpents are causing trouble again?"
Elder Turner felt a flicker of doubt, but then, a sudden realization hit him like a thunderclap.
In the past, even if the Goddess and Timothy were riding the dragon together, no one would have thought much of it, no matter how close they were.
But today... today was Valentine's Day!
The Goddess and Timothy, leaving together on Valentine's Day?
Could it really be because of those two serpents?
Was it really just a coincidence?
Elder Turner took a step back, his gaze filled with disbelief.
He couldn't bring himself to believe that Goddess Sylvia could have any special relationship with Timothy.
But recently, the Goddess had changed in many ways.
She still carried the same Holy Emperor's authority, and no one dared to defy her.
But beneath that cold, imposing exterior, there was now a hint of something... softer.
Not only had she spared a young disciple who had been caught secretly dating, but she had also allowed this year's Valentine's Day celebration.
Could all of this really be because of Timothy?
For a moment, Elder Turner's old face turned pale, his eyes wide with shock.
If this was true, then the strange things he had witnessed before...
A chill ran down Elder Turner's spine, and his heart filled with dread!
Human survival is rooted in legacy, and the birth of new life stems from the love of the previous generation.
Thus, on the continent of Elant, Valentine's Day holds a place of great importance and is widely celebrated.
As Azura soared through the sky, Timothy and Sylvia could see countless kingdoms below, adorned with lights and decorations, celebrating one of the most grandiose festivals—Valentine's Day.
But a mortal's life is fleeting, and the number of times they can experience this day is limited to just a few dozen.
As they flew further north, Azura's rapid flight carried them over the mountain range that separated the northernmost region. The scene before them suddenly shifted.
Beyond the mountains, the sky, which had been gradually darkening as they traveled north, turned completely black.
But the deep, dark sky only served to highlight the breathtaking beauty of the auroras.
Streams of vibrant colors flowed across the night sky.
Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet.
Each color seemed to trail a shimmering tail of light.
These tails of light moved gently, like flowing water, tracing arcs across the sky.
And it wasn't just one stream of light.
The auroras continued to flow, and as one brilliant display faded, another would soon take its place.
Like the soft glow of the moon, the auroras illuminated the night sky without competing with the sun, serene and effortless.
"So beautiful," Sylvia whispered.
As they landed, even Sylvia found herself gazing up at the sky, momentarily lost in the sight.
She rarely traveled to other places, so even though she had heard of the stunning auroras in the far north of Elant, she had never seen them for herself.
"But what lies beyond those auroras?" Sylvia murmured, her curiosity piqued.
"Perhaps the vast expanse of the stars and the universe? When you break through to the Ascension Phase, you might get the chance to find out," Timothy replied.
"Ascension Phase?" Sylvia's hand tightened slightly.
It was true—she had been stuck at the Transcendence Realm for a long time.
In the past ten thousand years, no one had managed to break through to the Ascension Phase.
That final barrier, though it seemed like just one step, was as insurmountable as a towering mountain.
Sylvia could feel that she wasn't far from the breakthrough, but crossing that last hurdle seemed nearly impossible.
Yet, ever since Timothy had entered her life, even though she hadn't been able to focus on her cultivation as much, she had started to sense a subtle shift.
The gap that once seemed impossible to bridge was now showing signs of loosening.
If things continued like this, maybe one day she really could...
Sylvia gazed up at the dark sky, momentarily lost in thought.
But as a soft purple aurora streaked across the horizon, she shook her head with a smile.
"Whatever. No matter what happens, today's about the date!"
"Come on, I want to get a closer look at Aurora Land."
With a sweet smile, Sylvia wrapped her arm around Timothy's.
"Don't worry, I'll make sure you get your fill of the auroras today," Timothy said with a grin.
Together, they walked deeper into Aurora Land.
