Douluo Continent: After seizing the opportunity, I achieved dual godhood.

Chapter 16 The Emerald Swan and the Seven-Jeweled Glass Pagoda

The tall man stood behind Qi Lin. He didn't mention his name or title in his words, but Wen Ning knew clearly that the other man was asking her a question.

But she wasn't prepared to answer that question.

Furthermore, she was prepared to challenge the system.

"System, I'm asking you."

"..."

Wen Ning looked away and turned to look at Wen Lin not far away. He still had his eyes closed, and judging from his expression, he was in some discomfort.

So Wen Ning decided to go and see what was going on with her brother.

Unfortunately, Qi Yun had no intention of letting her leave.

However, he did not go too far; he simply strode up to Wen Ning and looked down at her.

I was determined to get an answer from her.

He was a seven-ring Soul Saint, and his wife was a six-ring Soul Emperor. Even when they concealed their auras, the four-ring Soul Master did not discover their existence. Wen Ning had only just officially become a Soul Master and had only one ring of strength. How did she discover their existence?

Seeing Qi Yun's persistence, Wen Ning had no choice but to continue calling for more people. "System, can you think of an excuse?"

Her voice was filled with helplessness and coquettishness, as if she wished she could just die and leave right now.

Since that was the case, the system did not remain silent, but instead said, "Your Emerald Swan Martial Soul possesses a life affinity; the plants of the Soul Hunting Forest told you this."

The voice was very calm, and there was no emotional fluctuation in it when it uttered those words.

Wen Ning, who was racking her brains for a suitable excuse, widened her eyes slightly upon hearing this.

Is this... really something the system came up with on the spur of the moment?

As the owner of this martial soul, she almost believed it when she heard this.

However, she didn't rush to ask the system about its authenticity. Instead, she repeated what the system had just said in her own words.

"My martial spirit is the Emerald Swan. It seems to have an affinity for life, especially for plants. The plants told me where you are."

Qi Yun, who was still wondering how Wen Ning knew his location, was shocked when he heard this.

What?!

Life affinity?

What is this?

He'd never heard of it!

While Qi Yun was still in shock, Wen Ning couldn't help but ask the system, "System, is this something you made up or is it really true?"

Wen Ning's voice held a hint of curiosity; she was genuinely intrigued.

She soon received her answer.

"real."

What?

Really?

How come she didn't know?

A thought flashed through Wen Ning's mind, and she seized upon it, asking somewhat uncertainly, "Was it something that already existed, or... something that just came about?"

Unexpectedly, Wen Ning would think of this. This time, the system's voice had a hint of amusement. "Just now."

A cool, deep voice echoed in Wen Ning's mind, carrying a hint of doting affection.

Wen Ning felt like she was going to die.

Why is the system's voice so seductive?

Is he trying to seduce her?

Wen Ning blinked hard, trying to banish the jumbled thoughts that suddenly popped into her mind.

Just as he was about to say something more, Qi Yun snapped out of his shock. Although he tried his best to control himself, his voice still betrayed his excitement, "How severe can your Emerald Swan Martial Soul be?"

This question was quite strange. Wen Ning didn't understand why the other person wanted to ask it, so she frowned and honestly answered, "I don't know."

She thought her answer would deter the other party, but to her surprise, the tall man in front of her pulled out a knife the next second!

The knife was pure white with a gleaming blade, making it appear exceptionally sharp. However, strangely, a faint black aura swirled around it, which gave people a very uneasy feeling.

It seemed like an ominous sign.

Staring at the knife Qi Yun pulled out, Wen Ning's eyes widened slightly, and she subconsciously took a step back.

No, she just said she didn't know, what was she doing taking out a knife?

Shouldn't we let people know?

Wen Ning was about to say something when she watched helplessly as Qi Yun took the knife and slashed his palm hard. The force he used clearly showed that he had made a firm decision.

No?

Is Qi Lin's dad sick?

Qi Lin, who had been standing behind Wen Ning, called out upon seeing this, "Dad!"

He ran to Qi Yun's side, grabbed Qi Yun's injured hand, his eyes red with anxiety, and his voice trembled, "Dad, what...what are you doing?"

Jiang Yunlan, who was not far away, widened her eyes upon seeing this scene. She grabbed the man she had beaten to the ground and strode aggressively towards Qi Yun, her voice filled with anger, "What are you doing? Why did you use the Soul-Devouring Blade to stab yourself for no reason?!"

"Didn't you know that the damage caused by this blade cannot be healed through the circulation of soul power?"

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

Her voice was very loud, and everyone present could hear it.

The man she was holding immediately begged for mercy upon hearing this, "Don't hurt me with the Soul-Devouring Blade! I'll tell you everything!"

His voice was so pitiful that it annoyed Jiang Yunlan. She raised her hand and slapped the man, knocking him unconscious.

Despite being questioned by his wife, Qi Yun's expression remained unchanged, but Wen Ning could tell from the cold sweat on his forehead that he was enduring pain.

She wanted to ask a question, but Qi Yun didn't give her the chance. "As you heard, the damage caused by the Soul Devouring Blade cannot heal itself. Ordinary healing-type Soul Masters are helpless against it. Can you give it a try?"

The reason Qi Yun did this was because he wanted to verify something.

Which is better, the Emerald Swan Martial Soul or the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda?

It should be noted that even the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda is helpless against the damage caused by the Soul-Devouring Blade.

This sword once killed a Title Douluo, and the resentment of that Title Douluo remained on this sword after his death. It is precisely because of this that the sword's power has greatly increased!

However, while this knife can inflict powerful damage on its victims, it can also backfire on the person wielding it.

Therefore, it occupies a place on the list of most powerful weapons in Douluo Continent.

Qi Yun bought this knife intending to remove its backlash effect and use it for his own purposes, but he hasn't succeeded yet, and it has come in handy in this way.

If the little girl in front of me can really heal the damage caused by the Soul Devouring Blade, then there's probably no injury in the entire Douluo Continent that she can't heal.

Upon hearing Qi Yun's words, Wen Ning's fingertips, which were hanging by her side, twitched.

She knew what the other person wanted to do.

But she was happy to help.

Because she also wanted to know just how powerful the healing ability of the Emerald Swan Martial Soul really was.

After a brief silence, Qi Yun received Wen Ning's reply, "Okay!"

The little girl smiled brightly and grabbed Qi Yun's hand before she could finish speaking.

A pale green soul force emerged from her hand and slowly flowed into Qi Yun's palm, where the skin and flesh were exposed.
