Douluo: Starting with the Signing in of Goddess Xiaowu

"Chu Qin, run quickly, it's the vengeance power of the Lord of Blood Demon Sha!" Zhen Yuan Celestial Sovereign warned.

Upon hearing this, Chu Qin immediately teleported away from that place.

As expected, a tragic howl erupted from within the body of the Blood Fiend Duke the next moment, his body turned into a pool of blood and finally vanished without a trace.

Along with the entire planet.

"They've escaped!" Chu Qin furrowed his brow.

"This is the vengeance power of the Lord of Blood Demon Sha," Blood Dragon Venerable said, "It seems the Lord of Blood Demon Sha is very afraid of someone discovering something, so he implanted vengeance power in the body of every Blood Demon Fiend. When interrogated, it will self-destruct!"

"But why, in the Blood Demon Holy City, the Venerate there wasn't implanted with vengeance power?" Chu Qin asked, puzzled.

"That's the crux of the problem!" Blood Dragon Venerable replied, "The one in the Blood Demon Holy City wasn't implanted with vengeance power because the Lord of Blood Demon Sha had already died. If our previous conjectures are correct, these Blood Demon Fiends must have come from a time when the Lord of Blood Demon Sha was still alive, traveling through time to kill you, that's why the vengeance power of the Lord of Blood Demon Sha exists."

"So you're saying, they actually time-traveled here to kill me?" Chu Qin's brow slightly furrowed.

"There can be no other explanation!" Blood Dragon Venerable nodded.

"Then it's going to be troublesome. The Lord of Blood Demon Sha must have found out that you are the one who traveled through time to kill him, he's preparing to strike first! This Blood Fiend Duke is probably just a pawn; following this, there will likely be many assassins coming, and the Lord of Blood Demon Sha might personally come." Blood Dragon Venerable added.

"You're mistaken, Dragon Venerable!" Zhen Yuan Celestial Sovereign shook his head, "Traveling through time is not so easy. Otherwise, why wouldn't the Lord of Blood Demon Sha just travel to a certain moment in the past to kill Chu Qin and be done with it? If time travel was so easy, especially for the powerful, then this world would have been in chaos long ago."

"So what's your explanation?" Blood Dragon Venerable asked, "Didn't you also say they came through time travel?"

"Have you noticed those coffins? If I'm not mistaken, they have the power to seal both body and time. These Blood Demon Fiends were not time travelers, but were sealed in the coffins, living for endless years, only to emerge now," Zhen Yuan Celestial Sovereign replied.

"Because time was sealed for them, it's as if they only stayed in the coffins for a moment, hence even if the Lord of Blood Demon Sha is dead, his vengeance power still exists inside them," Zhen Yuan Celestial Sovereign added.

"I have studied the power of Blood Demon Fiends. Sealing time is within their capabilities."

"I understand now! That means these Blood Demon Fiends were sealed in the coffins by the Lord of Blood Demon Sha and have now awakened to kill me!" Chu Qin realized.

"Putting it that way, it does make some sense," Blood Dragon Venerable nodded, "The Lord of Blood Demon Sha must have learned through some means that you come from the future. Since he couldn't time travel, during the Ancient Era he sealed these Blood Demon Fiends with the power of time, waiting for them to awaken and kill you!"

"If it's impossible to time travel at will, how come Qiancheng and I were able to go back to the past and safely return?" Chu Qin asked, still slightly confused.

"In this world, there are always a few lucky ones," Zhen Yuan Celestial Sovereign said with a smile, "And you just happen to be one!"

"In any case, arbitrarily time traveling is impossible. No matter how strong a person is, once they time travel, the whole fabric of space-time would be disrupted! So, these coffins coming here sealed is the best explanation!"

"Right!"

Chu Qin and Blood Dragon Venerable both nodded at the same time.

"However, having said that, the Lord of Blood Demon Sha would not have only arranged for a single Blood Fiend Duke. I suspect that there are many sealed Blood Demon Fiends in either the Sanctuary or the Infinite Heavens waiting to kill you, Chu Qin. Once you are dead, you won't be able to go back to the past to kill the Lord of Blood Demon Sha, and everything in the world as it now stands will cease to exist, instead falling completely under the rule of Blood Demon Fiends."

"I won't let him succeed!" Chu Qin said with a cold smile, "Lord of Blood Demon Sha, I am determined to kill you!"

"We will spare no effort to assist you!"

Blood Dragon Venerable and Zhen Yuan Celestial Sovereign declared resolutely.

"No, not just us, the entire Sanctuary should unite to protect you!" Blood Dragon Venerable continued, "If you are killed, this world will be completely destroyed. Everyone has a stake in guarding you!"

"Venerable Dragon Predecessor, are you suggesting I unite all the Domain Lords of the Sanctuary?" Chu Qin asked.

"Not you, but me!"

"You?" Chu Qin exclaimed in surprise.

"It's time for me to come out of seclusion!" the Blood Dragon Venerable nodded, smiling. "Chu Qin, thank you for your care. Just now, my soul has completely recovered!"

"Chu Qin!"

"Chu Qin, are you alright?"

Right then, Xiaowu waved her jade hand in front of Chu Qin's eyes.

"I'm fine, Xiaowu," Chu Qin said, holding Xiaowu's hand.

"Xiaowu, Xue'er, Yi Yi, I might not be able to return to the Mountain and Sea Sanctuary with you," Chu Qin said with a hint of self-reproach.

Now that he knew the Blood Demon Fiend's plan, Chu Qin couldn't waste any more time, not even a minute!

"Then, alright!" Xiaowu, Qian Renxue, and Luo Yiyi all nodded at the same time.

"You don't blame me?" asked Chu Qin.

Xiaowu and the other two shook their heads, "We know you must have something very important to do!"

"Yes, Chu Qin, you go ahead and do what you need to do," Qian Renxue followed up, "Once you're done, we'll have plenty of time to play together."

"Yes, my thoughts are the same as the two junior sisters' thoughts," Luo Yiyi added.

"Good, Young Friend Chu Qin indeed has good judgment!" Just then, an old and aged voice rang out.

Inside Chu Qin's body, a streak of blood-colored light appeared, and a red-haired elder materialized beside him.

It was the Blood Dragon Venerable.

"You are?"

"Greetings, Dragon Venerable!"

The Eight Imperial Qilin Venerable immediately knelt down with joy.

"Are you the Blood Dragon Venerable?"

"Chu Qin's master?"

"The strongest of the Infinite Heavens and Sanctuary!"

Xiaowu and the other two exclaimed in utter shock.

"Indeed, it is I!" the Blood Dragon Venerable said with a smile, "But I'm no longer the strongest, that would be Chu Qin."

"The reason Chu Qin cannot be with you is that he has a great mission to complete," the Blood Dragon Venerable explained. "This matter is concerning the safety of the entire world, please understand."

"It's okay, although we don't know what Chu Qin is doing, we fully support him in his endeavors!" Qian Renxue replied.

"Yes, yes!" Xiaowu and Luo Yiyi nodded in agreement.

"I believe the other sisters would also support it," Luo Yiyi added.

In the face of right and wrong, they were always correct.

"Let's not talk too much," the Blood Dragon Venerable nodded. "Kirin Venerate, go to the Mountain and Sea Sanctuary, wake all the Venerate of Heavens and above, as well as those in seclusion and slumber, and have them converge at the Immortal King Tomb! Ensure Chu Qin's safety at all costs; I will be there shortly."

"Yes, Dragon Venerable!" The Eight Imperial Qilin Venerable immediately took the command.
