Douluo: Starting with the Signing in of Goddess Xiaowu

"An excuse, you're just indifferent to him. But then, where are you from?" Chu Qin asked with a slight surprise.

"From outside the domains!" Feng Ya said, biting her red lips lightly, "However, Feng Ya was very young when Emperor Fenghuang brought her to Tianmen. Since then, Feng Ya has been following Emperor Fenghuang and cultivating by his side."

"Having reached the Progenitor Realm, it seems your talent is quite remarkable too," Chu Qin said bluntly, "So, aren't you angry that Emperor Fenghuang didn't choose you as his successor but chose Jing'er instead?"

Feng Ya shook her head, "Emperor Fenghuang granted Feng Ya a new lease on life; Feng Ya could never feel the slightest discontent towards him. Moreover, seeing Emperor Fenghuang choose the wife of Emperor Chu Qin as his successor, Feng Ya truly feels happy from the bottom of her heart!"

"I see." Chu Qin said with a slight smile, "Jing'er comes here every day to cultivate, so I'll trouble you to take good care of her from now on."

"Yes!" Feng Ya nodded, "As long as there is no mission, Feng Ya will definitely come to the Phoenix Hall."

"Mission? What kind of missions does Tianmen have?" Chu Qin asked, "Isn't it enough to just guard Tianmen?"

Feng Ya shook her head, "We need to go the Infinite River to collect Crystal Stones; on one hand, they can enhance our strength. The main point is, Tianmen is constructed from Infinite Crystal Stones, and its energy is depleting every moment. We need to obtain Crystal Stones from the Infinite River every day, or Tianmen will collapse, and war will break out!"

"To obtain Crystal Stones, we face not only competition and interference from the Outer Realms, we must also defeat the Crystal Beasts. The Crystal Beasts are divided into five grades: Yellow, Profound, Earth, Heaven, and Saint. Heavenly Crystal Beasts have the power of the Progenitor Realm, even of the Emperor Realm, while Saint Level Crystal Beasts exist only in legends and have only appeared a few times. Only Lord Qinglong has the power to defeat them. To kill these Crystal Beasts and consolidate Tianmen, we lose a large number of powerful fighters every day."

"So that's it!" Chu Qin nodded, "Then why not directly bypass Tianmen and strike proactively?"

"Beyond Tianmen, our enemies are far too powerful. They possess the Taiyin True Dragon, a supremely powerful being only slightly weaker than Lord Qinglong. Moreover, they have twenty Emperor Realm fighters on their side! And on the other side of the Infinite River, they have also constructed a Tianmen. Tianmen possesses not only defensive power but also horrifying lethality, making the sanctuary zones behind both Tianmens absolutely safe."

"And! The more Crystal Stones Tianmen has, the larger the sanctuary zones become!"

"So far, no one has been able to shatter Tianmen, so both sides guard their own Tianmens and expand their domains through Infinite Crystal Stones! But, powerful Crystal Beasts appear outside of the sanctuary zones, and they must be fought over and sacrificed for!"

"Moreover, recently, rumors have circulated that the Extraterritorial Evil Clan may have found a way to shatter Tianmen, which is why Lord Qinglong and the other Emperors are in seclusion, maintaining their best condition to respond to any attack from the Outer Realms!"

"Twenty Emperor Realm fighters!" Chu Qin's gaze became sharp.

"Yes, and thankfully we have Lord Qinglong. She poses a lethal threat to each of the Emperor Realm fighters, preventing them from easily crossing the sanctuaries. Likewise, our Emperor Realm fighters, when they appear outside the sanctuaries, are targeted by the Taiyin True Dragon. However, when Heavenly or even Saint Level Crystal Beasts appear, both sides must dispatch forces to compete for them!"

"Of course, the Infinite River is so vast and due to the limits of Divine Sense, Lord Qinglong and the Taiyin True Dragon can't possibly cover everything, so both sides often choose to strike covertly! Especially lately with Lord Qinglong in seclusion and the Taiyin True Dragon missing, activities on both sides have become increasingly bold!"

"Hmm," Chu Qin nodded.

Chu Qin and Feng Ya continued to chat casually for a while.

Chu Qin found that perhaps because of her identity as a member of the Extraterritorial Evil Clan, there was a sense of awe in everyone towards her!

Moreover, though Feng Ya would not admit it, Chu Qin could tell from her unintentional comments that many people, including Yang Tian, were somewhat cold towards her.

This was understandable; Feng Ya carried the blood of the Extraterritorial Evil Clan. Even though she was extraordinarily talented and had slain countless members of the Evil Race, there would always be some who harbored reservations.

At that moment, the fiery red light behind the screen lit up again, and Lan Jing'er stepped out from behind it.

"Jing'er, that was quick?"

Chu Qin approached Lan Jing'er with a gentle smile.

"Yes!" Lan Jing'er nodded.

"Oh? How come you've reached Saint Emperor already!" Chu Qin said in surprise, "Wasn't it supposed to take three months?"

"Heehee, of course, I have you to thank for this!" Lan Jing'er laughed, "Because you gave me Qinglong's Blood and the Primordial Emperor Bloodline. After activating a large amount of the Phoenix Bloodline, the three bloodlines converged and surged, promoting me directly to Saint Emperor. Even the master was startled!"

"Good for you, my dear Jing'er!" Chu Qin said with a smile, "Then everything's alright now, shall we go find Xiaowu and the others?"

"Yes, let's!" Lan Jing'er nodded and looked towards Feng Ya, "Goodbye, Sister Feng Ya."

"Goodbye!" Chu Qin also smiled at Feng Ya.

"I bid farewell to you, Emperor Chu Qin!" Feng Ya said with utmost respect.

At this moment, she felt particularly joyful; when others chatted with her, they invariably showed concern due to her identity, hiding some things from her.

However, she could not feel it at all from Chu Qin's words.

The place that Azure Dragon had arranged for Chu Qin and the others was the Azure Dragon Pavilion.

This place was only a few steps away from the Azure Dragon Hall where Azure Dragon was in seclusion.

"Chu Qin, Jing'er, you're back!"

Seeing Chu Qin and Lan Jing, Xiaowu and the other girls were all excited to say.

"How about it, isn't this Heavenly Gate no worse than the Ancient Family and our Divine Star?" Chu Qin asked with a smile as he looked at Xiaowu and the others.

"Yes! The Heavenly Gate not only has fresh air but also a rich Divine Power, it's perfect," Xiaowu nodded in response.

"I feel like this place doesn't even seem like a battlefield," Ning Rongrong added with a smile.

"The Heavenly Gate has a total of thirty-six domains, and we are in the innermost one, the Qinglong Domain, which serves as the Heavenly Gate's main base, and it's not a battlefield!"

"The real battlefield should be right behind here!"

Chu Qin said, pointing to the west.

There, there stood a towering wall that spanned the universe and whose height was unknown.

This wall was Tianmen!

Outside Tianmen, terrifying battles that could destroy heaven and earth erupted at every moment!

Under the influence of Chu Qin's Divine Sense, the girls also sensed these horrifying battles and showed shocked expressions.

"Chu Qin, do we have to join the battle too?" Xiaowu asked.

"As long as I'm here, there's no need for you to join the battle," Chu Qin said with a smile, "Tomorrow, I'll take a look outside the Heavenly Gate."

"Ah!" The girls all expressed some concern.

"Don't worry, I'm just going to the Heavenly Gate Sanctuary," Chu Qin reassured them with a smile. "I have to take this step sooner or later, I'll be careful and also find some Crystal Stones for you to cultivate!"

Having come here, Chu Qin was certainly not afraid of much.

Moreover, Chu Qin had already established a connection with Azure Dragon, who would undoubtedly take action even if Taiyin True Dragon made a move.

Furthermore, according to what Feng Ya had said, Taiyin True Dragon wouldn't dare to act within the sanctuary.

"I'll go with you!" Wuji Heavenly Emperor Yanran said with a smile.

"Good!" Chu Qin nodded his head.

"Then we'll go too!" Xi E said.

"You're also going?" Chu Qin frowned.

"Yes, Gluttonous Ogre had just told us about the situation at Tianmen. It's just that Xiaowu and Ning Rongrong were not paying attention. It's absolutely safe within the sanctuary, not to mention we'll be with you and Sister Wu Ji. Even if a Heavenly Grade Crystal Beast appears, we aren't afraid," Bi Bidong spoke up.

"If a Heavenly Grade Crystal Beast does show up, that'd be a boon for us! With you and Sister Wu Ji here, surely we won't be in danger?" Gu Yuena said with a laugh.

"Alright then, tomorrow, let's all go to the Heavenly Gate Sanctuary to take a look," Chu Qin agreed, nodding his head, "to witness this so-called Heavenly Gate!"

"Yes, yes!"

With those words, Chu Qin entered the Azure Dragon Pavilion.

This place, just like Luo Wang Star, was luxurious and extravagant, a perfect match for Chu Qin's temperament and status!

Thinking about it, it made sense; the Nine Clans were shedding blood and sacrificing here, so it was only natural that the conditions would be splendid.
