Seeing Gu Qiuxi Again!!!
After Xu Xingyu finished testing all her Soul Skill, A Jin clapped and said in a flattering tone, "Congratulations, Xingyu, it seems you've obtained an extraordinary Soul Skill this time."
Because he had previously protected her, and because she possessed the same Second-Level God cultivation and knowledge as Gu Yuena, even though A Jin hadn't figured out the essence of his Soul Skill, he could still sense the extraordinary nature of the Soul Skill provided by the Million-Year Soul Ring.
Especially with the final domain skill, A Jin, with her God Level cultivation, could clearly sense the interference with her destiny, yet even so, she knew there was nothing she could do.
Unless one possesses inherent attributes, a god cannot interfere with destiny through cultivation alone. If a god insists on interfering with another's fate, they can only attempt to do so using something that does not belong to that plane of existence.
The God King Tang, who had always wanted to turn Douluo Star into his backyard, knew this best; otherwise, he wouldn't have gone so far as to send his daughter, born in the Divine Realm, down to lure the chosen one of destiny.
Xu Xingyu smiled and nodded in response to A Jin's compliments. He was also genuinely delighted with the Soul Skill he had acquired. With the Soul Skill provided by this Million-Year Soul Ring, he dared not say that he could roam freely on the continent, but at least few people would be qualified to attack him.
"Now that you've successfully fused your Soul Bone, you must be ready to face the Third Trial of the Dragon God Nine Trials, right?" A Jin asked with a smile, "Or do you need to rest and recover your Soul Power?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Xingyu said with a hint of eagerness, "No need, I recover my Soul Power relatively quickly, and I've almost recovered. So what's the next test? My test mark hasn't given me any instructions."
"That's because your assessment still needs to wait for one more person to begin." At that moment, A Jin glanced at the Dragon Ascension Pillar in the center of the room and said, "But judging by the numbers, she should be here soon... Ah, it seems like speak of the devil and he appears!"
A beam of earthy yellow light flashed from the Dragon Ascension Pillar, and two figures appeared. They were Xiao Dong, who was supposed to be the successor of the Earth Dragon King, and Xu Xingyu Gu Qiuxi, Xu Xingyu's good sister whom she hadn't seen for a long time.
"Long time no see, Xu Xingyu! Looks like you've been having a Xiaoyao time while you were gone," Xiao Dong said jokingly. "Qiu'er has been worried about you."
"Sister Xiao Dong!!!" Gu Qiuxi called out shyly.
Xu Xingyu could only force a smile and say, "There's nothing I can do. Something happened to my sweetheart, so I left in a bit of a hurry."
The last time I saw the two of them was after Xu Xingyu finished her Second Trial; we exchanged a quick greeting and didn't talk much afterwards. Now, they seem to have changed quite a bit.
Xiao Dong Xu Xingyu hadn't interacted much, so they didn't know much about each other. They only knew that the other party seemed to have inherited the power of the Earth Dragon King and was a direct descendant of the Earth Dragon King.
Now look closely at this Earth Dragon King; her short silver hair gleams with a soft sheen. On either side of her forehead are diamond-like dragon horns, curved and powerful, showcasing her strong bloodline and power. Her golden pupils seem to contain the wisdom of time, revealing an inviolable dignity.
The black armor enveloped Xiao Dong's slender figure, perfectly outlining her graceful silhouette and giving her the air of a heroic female warrior.
The changes in Gu Qiuxi shocked Xu Xingyu even more. The 14-year-old Gu Qiuxi had undergone remarkable growth during this period. Her appearance had become more alluring and mature. Her golden hair had become more dazzling, like the bright sunlight, gently falling on her slender shoulders. Her red eyes seemed to contain the mysterious power of the stars, shining brightly.
She wore an elegant red dress with gold trim, the hem swaying gently with her steps. The dress's unique design exuded a blend of classic and modern styles, highlighting her distinctive temperament. The gold trim added a touch of nobility to the overall look, perfectly complementing her aura.
Gu Qiuxi's features became increasingly delicate. Her slightly upturned red lips exuded confidence and composure. Her long, slender eyebrows formed a perfect arc, showcasing her nobility and agility. The light shining in her eyes was like the most brilliant star in the sky, radiating confidence and wisdom.
Although she is only 14 years old, her figure already displays the graceful curves of youth. Her slender and well-proportioned body exudes a healthy aura, and her gait seems to carry an elegance of dance, showcasing her unique charm.
She exudes a unique charm, like a fairy walking among the stars. At 14, Gu Qiuxi is no longer the naive girl she once was, but a charming and confident young woman.
Looking at Xu Xingyu like this, one can't help but feel that the Auspicious Beast that had always followed him in the Star Dou Great Forest has finally grown up. The naivety of the past has faded, replaced by maturity and heroism.
Although Gu Qiuxi's appearance is different from Wang Qiu'er in the original novel, her temperament is now very similar to hers. This makes Xu Xingyu even more grateful that he pulled her out of the fate arranged by Tang San.
If Tang San were to unknowingly separate Tang Wutong's Divine Sense and merge it with Gu Qiuxi's, thus influencing her consciousness and turning her into Wang Qiu'er, Xu Xingyu didn't know how much she would regret it then.
Thinking of this, Xu Xingyu turned to A Jin beside her again and asked, "When you said we had to wait for someone, did you mean Qiu'er? I remember her Golden Dragon Trial Dragon God Trial was to be taken with me before she found her own path."
A Jin nodded and said, "That's right. Qiuxi will go with you to the location where you'll take the Third Trial."
"Oh?" Xu Xingyu frowned and said, "So the location for this assessment isn't Dragon Valley? Is it a special secret realm belonging exclusively to the Star Dragon Tower, like the Divine Dragon Pool?"
The one who answered his question was Xiao Dong, who said cheerfully, "No, not at all! In some ways, it's even further than you think."
Just as Xu Xingyu was about to continue, looking puzzled, A Jin laid it all out. "Simply put, the assessment location isn't in Dragon Valley, nor is it on the Douluo Continent."
"This time, you and Gu Qiuxi will leave Douluo Continent for another plane, where you will lend a hand to the Dragon Clan still worships the Dragon God. This is your third test!!!"
