Douluo: Starting with the Signing in of Goddess Xiaowu

```

"Mm, you've all worked hard; everyone may withdraw!" Xu Qingtian said.

"Elder Xu, this…" The female officer was somewhat reluctant to comply.

"What's the matter? With me, the Sect Hierarch, and Elder Lan Jing'er here, could His Majesty actually be in danger?" Xu Qingtian's voice raised, "Or are you suggesting, Lord Chu Qin would harm His Majesty?"

"Of course not, Elder Xu, we will leave immediately!" The female officer hastily led the other guards away upon hearing this.

"Remember, without mine or His Majesty's instruction, no one is to set foot within the Xu Imperial Garden!" Xu Qingtian added.

"Understood!" The female officer replied.

After the female officer had left, Xu Qingtian turned to Chu Qin and Longhuang Lan Jing'er to explain, "Lord Chu Qin, please don't misunderstand. This is His Majesty's command!"

"I thought so, Grandfather Qingtian, you wouldn't send the guards away for no reason!" Xu Yichen replied with a smile, "Then, Imperial Elder Sister, why did you have him send the guards away?"

"As for that, I'm afraid I'm unaware!" Xu Qingtian responded, "Perhaps, once we see His Majesty, we'll know!"

"Imperial Elder Sister, why would you do this?" Xu Yichen asked, puzzled.

The group walked into the Imperial Garden, and a banquet was already laid out.

All manner of mountains' delicacies, exquisite dishes, and fruits from the Sun Moon Land, were displayed on the open-air long tables.

At a glance, one would feel the urge to grab and feast voraciously.

"Eh, where's Imperial Elder Sister (Your Majesty)?" Xu Yichen and Xu Qingtian both asked, puzzled.

"Yi Chen, Elder Xu, I'm here!" At that moment, the voice of Xu Shi Yun, gentle as water, rang out. They saw Xu Shi Yun slowly walking out of the pavilion.

At the same time, Chu Qin and the other four couldn't help but notice that Xu Shi Yun looked a bit different today! Normally Xu Shi Yun was never without her Dragon Robe, but now, her attire was quite similar to that of Lan Jing'er and Longhuang, though Xu Shi Yun's gown was still golden yellow. She wore only a simple crown on her head and was not dressed formally.

Like Longhuang and Lan Jing, aside from the subtle cleavage revealed at her chest, Xu Shi Yun's legs were also bare, laid bare to the world.

Xu Shi Yun's legs were especially distinctive, curving slightly more than those of the other three women. The bend was natural and just right, creating an even more appealing sense of beauty and curvature to the onlooker.

If Longhuang represented full maturity, and Lan Jing'er and Xu Yichen radiated youthful vigor, then Xu Shi Yun was in between, hitting the perfect balance at a youthful emperor level!

Upon seeing Xu Shi Yun in this manner, Chu Qin, though he had already seen her body once, couldn't help but activate the power of the Skydream Ice Silkworm again!

Chu Qin seemed to be more and more entranced the more he looked!

He even began to think that even if the System didn't require Xu Shi Yun, he himself would have to find a way to win her over!

If he didn't win over the Pirate Empress, then whom?

"You... Your Majesty!" Xu Qingtian, upon seeing Xu Shi Yun's attire, struggled to find words!

Strangely enough, today's four women seemed to have thought along the same lines!

"Elder Xu, what's the matter?" Xu Shi Yun asked with a light smile, then she looked towards Lan Jing and Longhuang, "Eh, Jing'er, Longhuang, Yi Chen, how come your outfits are so similar to mine..."

"Imperial Elder Sister, that's what we should be asking you!" Xu Yichen replied, "Jing'er and the teacher dressed up for Chu Qin, and I wore matching sister outfits with Jing'er. Imperial Elder Sister, what's going on? You've never worn a dress before!"

Facing Xu Yichen's questioning, the royal Xu Shi Yun was not at all flustered and simply said, "As the emperor, I can wear whatever I want, can't I?"

"Then why did you have Grandfather Qingtian send away the guards? Isn't it because you didn't want anyone to see you?" Xu Shi Yun still did not let her sister off easily.

```

"So it's come to this, Yi Chen, my dear sister, even you're interrogating me now!" Xu Shi Yun said with a calm and unhurried smile.

"I'm sorry, Imperial Elder Sister, my mistake!" Xu Yichen, apparently holding something at Xu Shi Yun's mercy, hurriedly pleaded for forgiveness.

Xu Shi Yun no longer paid attention to Xu Yichen, but turned to Xu Qingtian and said, "Elder Xu, have all the guards left?"

"Yes!" Xu Qingtian nodded affirmatively.

Only then did Xu Shi Yun slightly nod and turn to Chu Qin, softly smiling, "Lord Chu Qin, we meet again!"

"Hmm!" Chu Qin nodded.

"Firstly, Lord Chu Qin, I owe you an apology," Xu Shi Yun pursed her red lips and said.

"Apology?" Chu Qin raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Yes! Previously, Yun Ying acted too impulsively, was rude to Your Majesty, and upset you," Xu Shi Yun replied.

"Don't worry, Pirate Empress. I don't get upset that easily!" Chu Qin said with a light smile, "It's just that at the time, I was in a hurry to save Yi Chen, so I didn't think so much about it!"

"Hmm!" Xu Shi Yun chuckled, then continued, "That is exactly what I wanted to speak to you about next, thanking Your Majesty for saving my thoughtless Imperial Younger Sister and rescuing Elder Xu, thereby sparing the Sun-Moon Empire, and me, from further loss!"

"Indeed, I've long wanted to express my gratitude!" said Xu Qingtian, who then bowed deeply to Chu Qin, "Thank you, Lord Chu Qin, for the life-saving grace."

"Elder Xu, I've already mentioned, it was a trifle, hardly worth mentioning!" Chu Qin smiled lightly, "You are an Elder to both Huang Er and Jing'er, it's not proper for you to bow to me, you flatter me too much!"

"No, this is no trivial matter!" Xu Shi Yun objected, "Lord Chu Qin, if there is anything you require, just ask! If it is within my power, I will surely fulfill your desires!"

"I'm not in need of anything!" Chu Qin replied with a light smile, "There's no need for trouble."

"Pirate Empress," the Sect Leader Long Huang added, "Chu Qin lacks for nothing, and what could you possibly offer him?"

"Alright then!" Xu Shi Yun sighed, "If so, consider it a favor I owe to Lord Chu Qin."

"It is agreed!" Chu Qin returned lightly.

"However, Lord Chu Qin, I have one thing to ask of you," Xu Shi Yun paused before speaking.

"Hmm?"

"I wish... I wish for you to become the Imperial Tutor of the Sun-Moon Empire!" Xu Shi Yun earnestly said, "In other words, could you be my teacher?"

"Ah?" Not only Chu Qin, but the others also expressed slight surprise.

"Imperial Elder Sister, you wish to take Lord Chu Qin as your master?" Xu Yichen inquired.

"Why not?" Xu Shi Yun retorted, "You have taken the Sect Hierarch Long Huang as your master, so why can't I take Lord Chu Qin as mine?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Qingtian secretly revealed a smile, musing internally, "These two sisters..."

Chu Qin naturally wouldn't mind a beautiful disciple; he had been idle of late, and taking a female Emperor as a student wouldn't be such a bad thing, yet, he still deliberately said, "You are a reigning Pirate Empress, are you sure you want to become my disciple?"

"Elder Xu has already informed me!" Xu Shi Yun affirmed, "Lord Chu Qin, someone who alone defeated the Soul Beast Ruler of the Evil Eye Forest must be an Ultimate Douluo! You certainly have the qualifications to be anyone's teacher, and I am no exception!"

"Chu Qin, since it's a heartfelt offer from the Pirate Empress, you can't refuse," Longhuang stated.
