Douluo: Starting with the Signing in of Goddess Xiaowu

"Hmph, I wasn't raised to be frightened!" Wang Qiu'er declared angrily, "I have a hundred million Divine Core Energy Crystals, but I'm not giving them to you!"

"Not giving them? Do you know that we are from Fuxi City, people of the third elder?" the middle-aged man said coldly, "If you don't, then all of you, stay right here."

Chu Qin, Xi E, and the others simply smiled faintly, ready to make a move.

Fighting, they had never feared anyone.

If it came down to it, they would just overturn the entire Fuxi City, just like they did with the Extremely Evil Aristocrat Family!

"So it turns out that these days, any drop of liquid can be called the 'Tree of Life' liquid, huh." Just then, a melodious voice rang out.

Chu Qin and the ladies turned towards the sound, only to see an incredibly beautiful figure enter their sight.

This person was around thirty years old, with long lush green hair, extremely beautiful features that were perfectly proportioned, not one bit more, not one bit less.

She wore a cowboy hat, dressed in light green tight-fitting gear, which showcased her explosively perfect figure, with curves in all the right places, clearly defined.

The proud front and perky back were both exceedingly rare in this world.

Her skin was even more fair and translucent, flawlessly perfect. Yet oddly, on her perfect pale cheeks, there was a faint blush, combined with the wine gourd in her hand, one could tell that she seemed intoxicated.

Upon seeing the woman, Chu Qin and the ladies were slightly stumped, because the woman's beauty was truly unparalleled; merely gazing at her was a pleasure.

Xi E's pupils dilated sharply, "Master!"

"Master!" Chu Qin and the others were also taken aback.

This woman was Xi E's master, one of the elders of the Middle Ancient Great World, Empress Chu Yun.

"You, why do you look so familiar?" Empress Chu Yun, holding her wine gourd, looked at Xi E with drunken eyes.

"Master, it's me, Xiao'e!" As Xi E said this, she threw herself directly into Empress Chu Yun's arms.

"Xiao'e, it's you!" Empress Chu Yun, sensing the familiar scent and presence of Xi E, finally recognized her, tossing aside the wine gourd and holding Xi E tightly, "You, why have you come here!"

"I came looking for you, Master!" Xi E said with a smile.

"Silly girl, instead of staying nicely at the Ancient Family, why did you run all this way!" Empress Chu Yun scolded softly. However, it was evident that her words were incredibly soothing and gentle.

There wasn't a hint of real blame in them.

"It seems we're in luck, to have found Xiao'e's master just as we entered the city," Chu Qin remarked with a light chuckle.

"Stop right there!" At that moment, the chubby middle-aged man shouted, "I don't care who your master or disciple is, someone needs to compensate for my Tree of Life liquid!"

Upon hearing this, Empress Chu Yun's expression tightened for a moment before she released Xi E, "Hmph, daring to pass off a drop of Immortal Herbs liquid as the Tree of Life's, Fuxi City really has lost all decorum!"

"You're claiming this is Immortal Herbs liquid! This is clearly the Tree of Life liquid!" the middle-aged man retorted coldly, "Compensate quickly!"

"I see you're just looking for trouble, come on!"

No sooner had the middle-aged man spoken than many figures emerged from behind the shop, completely surrounding Chu Qin and his group!

"Really? Let's show you what the real Tree of Life liquid looks like then," Empress Chu Yun said with a calm smile, pulling out a transparent bottle with a drop of green liquid suspended within.

The next moment, the green liquid burst forth with an extremely dazzling light, and at the same time, an unparalleled life force emanated from the transparent bottle!

"It's, it's truly the sap of the Tree of Life!" The middle-aged man was completely astonished, "Where, where did you get this from!"

"You don't need to worry about that," said Chu Yun Great Emperor, as he put away the sap into the Soul-Guiding Divine Artifact, "Xi E. Let's go. Fighting such people will only sully our hands."

Upon hearing this, Xi E looked at Chu Qin, who nodded. Then, the group walked out of the shop.

Watching them leave, the middle-aged man immediately instructed those around him, "Quick, report this situation to the third elder, and tell them someone has the real sap of the Tree of Life!"

"Yes!"

Meanwhile, Chu Qin and his companions had left the shop and were now on the street.

"Master, how come you are here?" exclaimed Xi E, looking at Chu Yun Great Emperor with immense excitement.

Except in the presence of Chu Qin or Chu Yun Great Emperor, Xi E acted like a child, without a trace of the Empress's dignity.

Chu Yun Great Emperor took out another wine gourd and took a deep swig of the fine liquor, "I've always said, I'm a wanderer, and naturally, I roam all around."

"Come on, Master. Then why did you leave without a word and return to the Life Forbidden Zone?" asked Xi E, "I have been searching for you all these years."

"There is a reason for that, which is better left unsaid," replied Chu Yun Great Emperor, taking another deep swig of liquor.

"Chu Yun," said Chu Qin, "May I ask where you got the sap of the Tree of Life from?"

"Who are you?" Chu Yun looked at Chu Qin with some confusion.

"Master, I forgot to introduce him. He's my man, Chu Qin, and the rest, except for Si Jing and Mei Wu, my aunts, are all my sisters!" Xi E cheerfully told Chu Yun.

Hearing this, Yuè Yīnà's pretty face blushed slightly. Was Xi E introducing her as Chu Qin's woman as well?

"What, Xi E, you're actually sharing a husband with so many women? You are a direct descendant of Pangu Shidi!" Chu Yun expressed her shock.

"At first, I found it somewhat incredible myself," Xi E said, "How could I, a noblewoman of an Ancient Family, fall for a man with so many lovers. But Chu Qin is different, Master. Chu Qin, he has destroyed an Extremely Evil Aristocrat Family!"

"He did?" The wine sprayed from Chu Yun's mouth on hearing this.

"Yes, if the Extremely Evil Aristocrat Family hadn't been destroyed, how could I have possibly left the Ancient Family to come here to find you?" replied Xi E, "Moreover, Chu Qin is a man even our Ancestral Emperor acknowledged!"

On hearing this, Chu Yun began to take Chu Qin seriously, "This is our first meeting, my name is Chu Yun!"

"Understood," nodded Chu Qin, "Chu Yun, I still want to ask about the same thing. Where did your Tree of Life sap come from?"

"Do you really want to know?" asked Chu Yun.

"Yes," Chu Qin nodded, "Our purpose here is to find you and the Tree of Life."

"Master, we're already aware of Grandfather Tai Cang's situation, so we want to find the Tree of Life to revive Grandfather Tai Cang," Xi E followed up.

Chu Yun paused, then replied, "Alright, I'll tell you. But, this isn't the place to talk."

"Let's go to Zhu Rong Manor," Huo Dong suggested. "It belongs to our Fire Kingdom's influence!"

"Understood!"
