Faced with Nan Feng's heart-wrenching words that hit his weakest point, Bo Saixi really stopped in his tracks.
Her fingers holding Brilliant Gold Scepter tightened slightly, and a trace of extremely heavy hesitation and struggle flashed through her eyes.
If those tens of thousands of sea dwellers on Purple Pearl Island, those who had just established a stable life under the faith of Sea God, were really bloody massacred by a Level 98 Peak Douluo because of one of her decisions... this blood debt would be heavy enough to crush anyone's conscience.
But...
If Nan Feng is really released because of such concerns as a rat-proof device, then the risks Sea God Island will face in the future will definitely be ten or a hundred times greater than the destruction of Purple Pearl Island!
This man is so terrible.
Even if the extreme madness and selfishness he displays is just a mask, it is just the "optimal solution" he carefully selected to achieve his goal.
However, daring to put on this mask and enter the situation requires a kind of extreme madness that goes beyond common sense!
He dared to go to great lengths to build Purple Pearl Island under the nose of Sea God Island, a huge hub that could backfire on the Spirit Hall at any time, but could also strangle the throat of the ocean at any time;
He dared to come across the sea single-handedly in the face of Bibi Dong, who was full of hatred;
He even dared to stand up to Sea God's Light, which was enough to crush Titled Douluo, step by step into the supreme Sea God Temple, and accept the scrutiny of the real god without fear!
This kind of shocking gamble that puts life and death at risk every step of the way and makes your scalp numb!
If Nan Feng hadn't become worried about gains and losses because of that deep-seated insecurity, if he hadn't relied on the fact that his clone could be abandoned, he would have been extremely careless and underestimated himself, thus exposing too many flaws that shouldn't have been revealed in the verbal exchange...
At this moment, she might have been led by this fragile-looking "doll", step by step into the shocking trap he had already dug called "New Sea God"!
If he is really released today because of this threat, and he is allowed to flee back to the mainland with the vigilance of being seen through. Bo Saixi cannot guarantee that next time, when this man puts on the mask again and hides all the flaws, whether he will be able to see through him!
When his strength was limited and he could only rely on an energy clone, Nan Feng was still able to achieve such a dramatic change. Once he really regained the initiative, he would even assist Bibi Dong in the future to master the force that can truly destroy the world...
Bo Saixi can't even think about it. At that time, what kind of price Sea God Island will have to pay to deal with such a devil who has no plans at all!
After thinking for a long time, Bo Saixi suddenly opened his eyes.
The hesitation in her eyes had been replaced by absolute coldness and determination. She slowly turned around and looked directly at Nan Feng, who was trapped in the beam of light and was waiting for her to compromise.
"My attitude remains unchanged."
"Unless you agree to my request just now, put down all your precautions and calculations, reveal all your plans and reach a consensus with me. Otherwise..."
The scepter in Bo Saixi's hand paused heavily and made a deafening roar, "Even if your detention will cause Bibi Dong to kill in Purple Pearl Island and destroy all lives. Today, I will never let you leave this Sea God Temple!"
"The High Priest..." Nan Feng narrowed his eyes slightly, "So, you, the Sea God spokesperson, don't care at all about the tens of thousands of seamen killed and injured on Purple Pearl Island?"
"Nan Feng, you are wrong."
Bo Saixi looked at him coldly, "It is precisely because I care about the peace of this ocean and the people who believe in Sea God that I will never let you lead me around today!"
"Even if you have been suppressed by me with Sea God Divine Power, even if you have become a piece of meat on the chopping board, at this moment, you can still accurately find the flaw of Purple Pearl Island, and you can still throw the fatal bargaining chip that threatens me in desperate situations!"
"If I just accept your bloody threat and let you go with scruples, then tell me, next time, how will you plot the world for your own safety? If you really help Bibi Dong deal with Sea God Island, by then, how can the blood flowing on this ocean be compared to that of a Purple Pearl Island?!"
Bo Saixi raised his chin slightly, "I have lived for more than a hundred years. I am not a child who can only listen to fairy tales. I am the high priest of Sea God Island!"
"I know very well that in many cases, bloodshed and sacrifice are the inevitable price."
"If you still hope to use this kind of moral kidnapping of killing to force me to give in, then I advise you to save your energy."
Faced with Bo Saixi's flawless toughness and determination, Nan Feng was completely silent.
Trouble.
This woman has the same temperament as Bibi Dong - there is a stubbornness in her bones that will not hit the wall or look back, and will not give in an inch!
Nan Feng has always been very clear that when it comes to playing tricks and trying to figure out the weaknesses of human nature, the calculations in his mind are enough to easily kill most smart people in the world. He is used to forcing his opponents to compromise by weaving fear and throwing unbearable costs.
However, these invincible chips will inevitably fail when encountering women with extremely strong personalities and rock-solid wills like Bibi Dong and Bo Saixi.
They will not be intimidated by the so-called "terrible consequences" he throws at them.
To put it bluntly, his psychological tactics used to scare people and force them to submit are of little use to a person in power who is accustomed to controlling everything and possesses terrifying power.
No matter how miserable he paints the future situation, no matter how he states the interests and harms, the first thought that pops up in his mind is not to give in and stop losses, but to fight with you first!
Even if the innocence collapses, it is only after fighting that you take one step at a time!
This strong style is just like Clear Sky Sect back then.
The same goes for those stubborn guys. Even if they knew that they had no chance of winning in the face of the absolute disparity in strength, they would never surrender just because of his light threats.
Until in the end, he forcefully pushed the entire Clear Sky Sect to the edge of a cliff where there was no retreat and if they dared to resist, they would all die. That group of people finally broke their proud backbone and bowed their heads honestly and obeyed.
Looking back at Bo Saixi now, she has never been forced into a desperate situation with no way out.
It can even be said that all the threats he has thrown about "Purple Pearl Island will flow like a river of blood" are only verbal, and have not really shaken the foundation of Sea God Island at all, nor have he really placed the butcher knife of destruction on the necks of the Sea God Island people.
Facing an opponent of this level, trying to get her to give in with a few light threats is simply a fantasy.
If you want to make Bo Saixi compromise, the only way is to do what you did with the Clear Sky Sect - use absolute crushing power to directly hold the lives of everyone in Sea God Island in your hands!
Only when the shadow of destruction truly envelopes Sea God Mountain, only when Bo Saixi has exhausted all Sea God's Power but still finds that he is unable to resist and has no other choice but to compromise, will the proud Sea God high priest truly lower his noble head.
Otherwise, as long as there is even a glimmer of hope to break the situation, as long as Sea God Island is not really facing annihilation, she will definitely fight to the end and not give in an inch!
Nan Feng was a little irritated. "High Priest, I really don't want to deal with an inexperienced person like you. If I had known you had such a temper, I wouldn't have come at all."
"Isn't it the same with you?"
Bo Saixi looked at the man who was trapped in the beam of light and still refused to bow his head, and said calmly, "Even if it were you, you really suffered such a fatal threat at a critical moment of life and death... You would rather blow everything up and die together with others, and you would never give in even half a point, right?"
"From the paranoia you showed just now in order to take the initiative, and your last sentence, 'If you can't control it, you can't be trusted.' I can clearly see your bottom line."
"A person like you, who is extremely insecure and only believes in your own brain deductions, will never leave the decision-making power of your own destiny or even the slightest say in the hands of others. You will not naively bet on whether others will be merciful or treacherous."
"So, once you face this kind of threat that has no way out and can only be beaten passively, the first thought that comes to your mind is definitely not to compromise in order to survive, but to use the craziest and most decisive means to try every means to drag the other person to hell together!"
"There is actually no essential difference between you and me at this point. Isn't there?"
Nan Feng sighed helplessly, "Same-sex repels... that's why I hate myself so much."
