Douluo: Starting with the Signing in of Goddess Xiaowu

"Hmm, perhaps." Jiu Yin nodded.

"Look!" At that moment, Xu Ying pointed at the gigantic black energy sphere, thousands of meters in diameter., and said.

Everyone looked over and saw that, after the Black Serpent Regal Honor was killed by Chu Qin, the energy of the black energy sphere had begun to dissipate wildly.

And not only that, to everyone's surprise, a scene unfolded where from within that black energy sphere, a cyan light barrier burst forth.

Just now, a clone of Chu Qin had also seen this light barrier, seemingly enveloped by the Black Serpent Regal Honor.

"It's the Qingguang Liulizhao of the Qingyun Imperial Venerate!" Li Ji and Luo Tianyong recognized the light barrier at a glance.

Chu Qin, Jiu Yin, as well as Hulena and the other women were all taken aback and hurried to the side of the Qingguang Liulizhao.

The next second, the Qingguang Liulizhao opened a slit, and a group of elders clad in cyan robes rushed out.

Seeing Chu Qin and the others, these elders all drew their swords and stood alert. The leading elder questioned, "Who are you, and where is Black Serpent?"

"Lu Mu Shengzun, don't you remember us?" Li Ji asked, looking at the leading elder.

"Miss Li Ji, Miss Tian Yong!" Lu Mu Shengzun exclaimed in surprise.

"And me!" Jiu Yin said with a smile.

"You are?" Lu Mu Shengzun's brows furrowed slightly.

"Zhumo!" Jiu Yin said with a light smile.

"Ah! Jiuyin Mozun!" Lu Mu Shengzun immediately relaxed his guard and exclaimed in surprise, "Was it you who killed Black Serpent?"

"Not me, it was him!" Jiu Yin said, looking at Chu Qin.

"Him? Black Serpent is really dead?" Lu Mu Shengzun, upon hearing Jiu Yin's words, looked towards Chu Qin and exclaimed in surprise.

"That's right." Chu Qin nodded and asked, "Where is your Qingyun Imperial Venerate?"

Black Serpent had just claimed that he had killed the Qingyun Imperial Venerate, but Chu Qin did not believe it; he could feel that within the Qingguang Liulizhao, there was an aura of the Imperial Venerate Level that must belong to the Qingyun Imperial Venerate.

"This means the crisis of my Azure Cloud Divine Mountain is lifted!" Lu Mu Shengzun said, overjoyed.

"We are saved!"

The other elders in cyan robes also began to get excited.

"You still haven't said, where is Qing Yu?" Li Ji said with a frown.

"She hasn't encountered any trouble, has she?" Jiu Yin and Luo Tianyong asked simultaneously.

"No, no, no, nothing happened. The Sect Hierarch, she's fine!" Lu Mu Shengzun hurriedly said, "She is in..."

"Jiu Yin, Miss Li Ji, Miss Tian Yong, I'm over here!" Before Lu Mu Shengzun could finish speaking, a voice melodious and pleasant to the ear, rich with the tone of a mature woman, sounded.

Only to see, a burst of cyan brilliance flew out from within the Qingguang Liulizhao.

As the brilliance faded, it revealed a figure of breathtaking, unparalleled beauty.

This woman, at first glance, exuded dignity, grace, elegance, and refinement!

She looked to be around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. Although time had not left any marks on her face, the inherent intellectual charm she emitted made her feel somewhat more mature than Xiaowu and the others. She had long, black, silky hair, wound up with a jade hairpin while the part behind cascaded down to her waist like a waterfall.

Her eyes were so clear and bright, as if filled with a sense of detachment from worldly strife, devoid of any flaws. That face, too, was so stunningly beautiful, it could be described as a beauty surpassing that of this world, the very standard of national grace and heavenly fragrance!

She was dressed in a long cyan robe, which had an open collar and was rather loose, yet it still clearly revealed her visually striking perfect contours, especially the vast swath of fair skin and the deep, long scar, which made it utterly impossible to look away.

And her legs, they too gave off an appetite-whetting allure. Because the robe was slit, a pair of perfect, jade-like legs adorned in white silk intermittently appeared before everyone's eyes, and below those legs, a pair of white high-heels perfectly accentuated her tall and flawless figure.

This person was none other than the Sect Hierarch of the Earthly Immortal Sect, Qingyun Imperial Venerate, Qing Yu!

"Qing Yu!" Li Ji, Luo Tianyong, and Jiu Yin were all delighted as they rushed toward the woman.

"It's been a long time, all of you," Qing Yu said with a smile, revealing a shallow dimple at that moment.

"Especially you, Jiu Yin. How did you end up looking like this, you must have suffered a lot," said Qing Yu, her expression slightly changing as she looked at Jiu Yin.

"I'm okay," Jiu Yin replied.

"I'm sorry, back then, I wanted to help you too, but the Outer Heavenly Lord had already taken precautions against me, fearing I would seek help from the Infinite Immortal Domain and the Great Thousand Buddha Nation, and had someone block the entrance to the Earthly Immortal Sect," Qing Yu said with a hint of apology.

"It's okay," Jiu Yin responded with a smile. "But you didn't help me last time, so this time, you have to help me!"

"Of course, you once saved my life, and now, you've saved me again!" replied Qing Yu. "Tell me if there's anything I can do."

"Actually, this time, it wasn't me who saved you," Jiu Yin said with a smile.

"Ah?" Qing Yu responded with slight surprise.

"In this state of soul, retaining only one percent of my power, how could I have the strength to kill Black Serpent? It was Chu Qin who saved you!" Jiu Yin said after reminiscing, then turned to address Chu Qin.

Qing Yu immediately turned her gaze toward Chu Qin.

And suddenly, a hint of astonishment passed through her beautiful eyes.

There actually existed such a handsome man in the world, one could truly say, "On the roads, a man as precious as jade is without equal in this world!"

"Thank you, Young Master Chu, for the life-saving grace!" Qing Yu immediately thanked Chu Qin sincerely.

"Miss Qing Yu, you needn't be so formal," said Chu Qin with a light smile. "I had a favor to ask of you too, and it just so happened I dealt with Black Serpent conveniently."

"What favor do you have, Young Master?" asked Qing Yu.

"Li Ji has found the location of the World Magic Tree, so I would like to ask Miss Qing Yu for some Six Spirit Jade Pills to help us go to Devil's City," said Chu Qin, still smiling.

"Devil's City?" Qing Yu raised her eyebrows slightly.

"Yes, Qing Yu, that is my request as well!" followed Jiu Yin. "Chu Qin is taking me to Devil's City to help me retrieve my physical body!"

"I see," nodded Qing Yu. "But, Young Master Chu, Devil's City is truly too dangerous, even if the Six Spirit Jade Pills can stop the demonic energy from corrupting, the creatures inside are incredibly powerful, as Jiu Yin is aware."

"Qing Yu, we've already discussed this," Li Ji interjected. "No matter the danger, we're going to go, and with Young Master Chu with us, it shouldn't be too perilous."

"Then I shall accompany you!" said Qing Yu after a pause.

"Ah? Qing Yu?" Li Ji and Luo Tianyong both expressed confusion.

"Without my Qingguang Liulizhao, the Six Spirit Jade Pills won't be of much use," Qing Yu explained. "And the Qingguang Liulizhao is always with me; hence, my presence is essential."

Chu Qin, Jiu Yin, Li Ji, and the others exchanged glances and nodded.

"However, you may need to wait some time," Qing Yu continued. "Previously, while I was in seclusion attempting a breakthrough, Black Serpent suddenly ambushed me, inflicting heavy injuries, and even tried to seize control of Azure Cloud Divine Mountain to absorb my magical power. I promptly used the Qingguang Liulizhao to protect all the disciples of the Earthly Immortal Sect within it, and maintaining the energy of the Qingguang Liulizhao consumed all my Six Spirit Jade Pills. It might take about seven days or so to refine enough to meet everyone's needs!"
