Douluo: Starting with the Signing in of Goddess Xiaowu-Chapter 1239 - 1217 Xiao Jin Zi Da Yin Zi_1

"Are you tired from walking?" Chu Qin asked.

"...Not at all!" Zhang Yiru shook her head.

"If you’re not tired, never mind then. I was actually thinking of giving you a piggyback ride!" Chu Qin chuckled.

"Tired!!" Upon hearing this, Zhang Yiru immediately changed her tune.

Chu Qin then bent down, and Zhang Yiru hopped onto his back, clinging tightly around his neck.

"You’re so heavy!" Chu Qin said with a pat on Zhang Yiru’s perky behind and a laugh.

"I’m not heavy at all!" Zhang Yiru protested, eyes wide.

"I meant my back!" Chu Qin laughed, "This thing is too heavy!"

"My back..." Zhang Yiru instinctively looked down at her chest, then patted Chu Qin’s neck, "You’re bad..."

"Yiru, where shall we go? Into the city?" Chu Qin asked.

"Let’s go to the back mountain!" Zhang Yiru replied, "I want to show you something!"

"Sure!" Chu Qin nodded, and with Zhang Yiru on his back, he walked toward the back mountain.

Despite being situated on a floating island, Lingxiao Holy City was incredibly vast, almost entirely surrounded by towering mountains!

Chu Qin carried Zhang Yiru on his back, joking and laughing along the way, following Zhang Yiru’s directions to a dense forest.

The scenery here was stunningly beautiful, with lush greenery all around. At the center was a lake as reflective as a mirror, the green trees casting their reflections upon it, complemented by the occasional glistening wavelets, creating a serene and uplifting feeling that could instantly make one forget all worries.

"This place is beautiful!" Chu Qin couldn’t help but exclaim.

"Yes!" Zhang Yiru nodded, "This lake is called the Lake of Forgetfulness; it’s the most beautiful place in all of Lingxiao Holy City. However, due to special reasons, we never allow outsiders to enter!"

"Lake of Forgetfulness?" Chu Qin raised an eyebrow.

Zhang Yiru did not immediately answer, her expression changed slightly, and she said, "Chu Qin, put me down."

Only then did Chu Qin let Zhang Yiru down.

Zhang Yiru looked towards a certain direction and walked over there, her tone tinged with sorrow, "The name of this lake was given by my father in memory of my mother!"

Following the direction of Zhang Yiru’s gaze, Chu Qin saw a stone monument at the far end.

Chu Qin instantly understood everything.

"This... is your mother’s monument, isn’t it?" Chu Qin asked.

"Yes!" Zhang Yiru nodded, looking slightly sad as she knelt in front of the monument, "My mother died in the Asura Realm, and this is the Ceremonial Tomb my father built for her!"

"But I don’t agree with this Ceremonial Tomb. I have a feeling that my mother is not dead; she’s still in the Asura Realm!"

"Yet, I can’t save her!" Zhang Yiru’s eyes glistened with tears, "Every time I miss her, I can only come here to cry alone!"

On hearing this, Chu Qin also knelt down and gently took Zhang Yiru’s hand, "Yiru, believe in me, if your mother is still alive, I promise that one day I will bring her back from the Asura Realm!"

"Yes, yes!" Zhang Yiru nodded earnestly, looking towards the Ceremonial Tomb, "Mother, knowing you are alive. If you can hear me, I want to formally introduce him to you. His name is Chu Qin, and he is my man!"

As Zhang Yiru’s voice fell, a golden light suddenly flared upon the tombstone.

"What’s happening?" Zhang Yiru asked, sounding somewhat delighted.

"Come out!" At that moment, Chu Qin drew in a breath from afar, and a golden monkey was pulled straight from the monument into his hands!

"Mercy, mercy, Lord, have mercy!" the golden monkey, frantically kicking and screaming for its life.

The voice of the monkey, it’s like that of a little child!

"Xiao Jin Zi!" Zhang Yiru frowned her brows lightly, "So it was you playing tricks!"

"Your Highness the Princess, please spare my life! I didn’t mean to tease you on purpose, I’ll never dare to do it again, never again!" the little golden monkey pleaded anxiously.

"If there’s a next time, I’ll throw you into the pigsty! You are not allowed to joke about my mother!" Zhang Yiru said coldly.

"Yes, yes, Your Highness, I won’t dare to again!" Xiao Jin Zi cried out.

"Chu Qin, let him go, he is my friend!" Zhang Yiru said, looking toward Chu Qin.

Only then did Chu Qin release the little golden monkey.

"Thank you, Your Highness, thank you, my lord!" The little golden monkey, as if pardoned, knelt before Zhang Yiru and Chu Qin, fervently bowing in gratitude.

"All right, get up!" Chu Qin said indifferently.

"Thank you, my lord!"

"Xiao Jin Zi, why are you here alone? Where’s Da Yin Zi?" Zhang Yiru asked.

"Your Highness, I am here!" At that moment, from the tranquil surface of the lake, a voice that sounded like a chubby boy emanated.

Following that, a huge silver fish, leaping from the lake’s surface, appeared.

This silver fish was kilometers long, similar in shape to a carp but covered in silver scales resembling armor, and on its head, there was a single horn!

"A Primordial fierce beast of the Extreme Realm?" Chu Qin raised his eyebrows as he looked at the silver fish.

"Hmm!" Zhang Yiru nodded her head, "They both have grown up here since they were young, and I have them guard my mother’s resting place for me."

"Da Yin Zi, let me introduce him to you, he’s named Chu Qin, he is my man!" Zhang Yiru said to the silver fish.

"Da Yin Zi, I have seen Lord Chu Qin!" The silver fish immediately bowed its head to Chu Qin.

"No need for such formalities! Since you are Yiru’s friends, then you are also my friends," Chu Qin said with a light smile.

"You two must be tired from guarding the tomb, here’s a little gift for our meeting!" As he spoke, Chu Qin flicked his fingers, and two immortal herbs dropped in front of the silver fish and the golden monkey!

"This is the Sage’s Great Medicine!" the silver fish and golden monkey exclaimed with delight as they felt the preciousness of the immortal herbs.

"Thank you, my lord!" the silver fish and the golden monkey said in unison.

"Now that you’ve received the immortal herbs, you might as well go on your way!" Chu Qin continued.

The silver fish and the golden monkey were momentarily taken aback.

Then, they suddenly realized.

Chu Qin and Zhang Yiru were on a date, and the two of them were completely spoiling the moment!

With that realization, the golden monkey transformed into a bolt of lightning and darted into the jungle, while the silver fish also swam deeper into Lake of Forgetfulness.

"Chu Qin, you didn’t need to give them the great medicine, I compensate them every month!" Zhang Yiru said with a charming smile.

"... Yiru, why didn’t you say earlier?" Chu Qin responded, "Is it too late to call them back now?"

Before Zhang Yiru could reply, Chu Qin had already revealed a smile, "I’m just teasing you. The gifts I give, I have no intention of taking back!"

"Having given to them, of course, I can’t forget about you!" Chu Qin said, taking out the recently acquired Overlord God Devil Sword and handing it to Zhang Yiru, "For you!"

"This is the Overlord Sword Sect’s treasure, the Overlord God Devil Sword!" Zhang Yiru raised her eyebrows, "Chu Qin, I can’t accept this! You’ve already helped me so much, and you even gave me the Mystical Lotus Dao Fruit. This Overlord God Devil Sword is a Holy Artifact; I can’t take it no matter what!"
