Douluo: Starting with the Signing in of Goddess Xiaowu

"Possession!" Chu Qin and Gu Yuena exclaimed in unison.

"I am only speculating," the Life God King replied, "However, such a possibility could indeed prevent Jing'er from inheriting the divine throne, because the Phoenix is already powerful enough to disdain inheriting it."

"Then, Life! Can the soul of the Phoenix be extracted?" Chu Qin asked.

"If there is not much erosion on Jing'er's body, it can be forced out with Divine Power. But if the erosion is substantial, then extracting the soul of the Phoenix will also shatter Jing'er's soul!" the Life God King said, his expression changing slightly, "Regardless, we need to find a way to investigate without alerting it. Otherwise, if the Phoenix chooses to bring about mutual destruction, we will be completely without recourse!"

"So... what should we do?" Chu Qin pressed on.

"It's simple," a somewhat immature voice spoke up, "first, use the Dragon Clan Secret Technique to seal Sister Jing'er's soul. That way, the soul of the Phoenix will also be sealed!" Right then, a golden figure appeared beside the trio—it was the Golden Dragon King!

"Xiao Jin, what did you just say?" Gu Yuena asked.

"Sister, have you forgotten? Our Dragon Clan has a secret technique that can seal a person's soul, originally intended for members of the Dragon Clan to possess others!" the Golden Dragon King replied.

"I remember now!" Gu Yuena nodded, "However, I don't seem to know this technique!"

"Of course, it's a forbidden technique of the Dragon Clan! You're the kind-hearted incarnation of the Dragon God, naturally you wouldn't inherit it. Whereas, I'm the evil incarnation, with all sorts of messy techniques up my sleeve!" the Golden Dragon King said, casually tossing a green fruit in his hand, and smiling smugly.

"Xiao Jin, are you sure this will be effective?" Chu Qin asked, "If something goes wrong with Jing'er, both your sister and I will not let you off!"

"Don't worry, Brother Chu Qin!" the Golden Dragon King slapped his chest confidently and said, "If it doesn't work, I'll chop off my head and give it to you!"

"Chu Qin, shall we give it a try?" Gu Yuena turned to Chu Qin.

"We have no other choice at this point!" Chu Qin nodded, his face slightly solemn, "If Jing'er has been possessed, I will feel guilty for the rest of my life!"

Shortly after, on the Shura God Island.

"Chu Qin, why did you call me out?" Lan Jing'er asked Chu Qin cheerfully.

Today, Lan Jing'er was dressed in a tight-fitting, black leather outfit that made her look curvaceous and extremely eye-catching!

"It's nothing!" Chu Qin pretended as if everything was normal, hugged Lan Jing'er, and replied with a smile, "Jing'er, how have you been feeling lately?"

"It's fine, Chu Qin!" Lan Jing'er seemed to instantly recognize the cause of Chu Qin's concern, "Although all my sisters have become gods and only I have not, I really don't mind at all!"

"Then what do you think could be the reason?" Chu Qin asked.

"It must be the power of my master!" Lan Jing'er replied, "My master told me that when the time comes, I will naturally achieve immortality. Immortality is to transcend human limits, and I think that's why I cannot inherit the divine throne."

"What else did your master tell you?" Chu Qin inquired.

Lan Jing'er shook her head, "When I met my master on the Hundred Souls Mountain, she was left with only a thread of her soul. After helping me gain strength and the Phoenix Fire, her soul also disappeared."

"It seems your master's situation was similar to that of the senior Azure Dragon Phoenix! Perhaps, your master's soul has also returned to her original self. In the Ancient Era, like your master, beings were on par with the Dragon God!"

After hearing what Shengming and the Golden Dragon King said, and then Lan Jing'er's response, Chu Qin had already guessed the general idea, but still he purposefully said so.

"So you're saying that perhaps one day, I can also meet Master, just like how you, Chu Qin, met the Azure Dragon senior again?" Lan Jing'er's eyes widened.

"Definitely!" Chu Qin smiled and nodded, "When that time comes, having inherited your Master's legacy, you will certainly be more formidable than Xue Er Xiao Wu and the others!"

"Really! Then I'm really looking forward to it!" Lan Jing'er said with a happy smile.

Chu Qin nodded, embraced Lan Jing'er in his arms, and then quietly used the Deity Sealing Needle with its anesthetic effect, jabbing it into Lan Jing'er's body!

Lan Jing'er quickly collapsed into Chu Qin's embrace, and Chu Qin hurriedly held her up, gently placing her on the ground.

At the same time, Gu Yuena, the Life God King, and the Golden Dragon King appeared here.

"Jing'er has fainted! Xiao Jin, it's up to you now!" Chu Qin, looking towards the Golden Dragon King, said.

"Don't worry!" The Golden Dragon King patted his chest, then his hand pressed against Lan Jing'er's chest. After receiving a stern look from Chu Qin, he shifted towards her abdomen.

Suddenly, the Golden Dragon King gently pressed on Lan Jing'er's abdomen, and in an instant, a swathe of golden energy spread out, and countless golden patterns emerged on Lan Jing'er's body.

"Done!" The Golden Dragon King clapped his hands.

"What's this!" At that moment, Chu Qin and the others noticed, right at Lan Jing'er's abdomen, at the exact spot where the Golden Dragon King had set the array's focal point, a golden flame appeared there.

Upon closer inspection, it wasn't a flame, but rather a curled-up figure enveloped in fire.

By the shape, it seemed to be a woman!

"Indeed!" The Life God King's complexion slightly changed, "This is the Phoínix's soul!"

"What should we do, Sister Life? Slap her to death?"

The Life God King shook her head, "The soul of this Phoínix has already completely fused with Lan Jing'er's body, and, at most in ten years, the Phoínix's soul will have completely taken Jing'er's place! Killing her would be like murdering Jing'er's soul and body together!"

"Then what do we do?" Chu Qin asked, "Life, can't we force it out?"

"How strange..." The Life God King suddenly looked perturbed.

"Strange? What's strange?" Chu Qin asked, puzzled?

Just then, the Phoínix's curled-up soul actually transformed into a golden light and soared into the sky!

"No good, this Phoínix is more powerful than I expected. My secret technique can't contain her!" the Golden Dragon King cried out.

At the same time, in the sky, an authoritative and ethereally beautiful voice rang out, "How dare you! You all have the audacity to lay hands on my soul!"

Chu Qin, the Life God King, and Gu Yuena looked up, their eyes lighting up.

They saw, high in the sky, a mass of golden-red flames, within which, a female figure was wrapped. Her features were obscured by the flames, so her true face was not clear, but from her silhouette, it was evident she was a figure of extreme grace. Especially at her chest, where the armor wrapped around, it seemed one could still see some solidity – very white!
