With a thunderous boom, a figure flew out of the flames. It was Qi Songtao.

Qi Songtao's clothes had been burned away, and even his hair had been reduced to char. He looked ten times worse than Camille.

Just as Li Bai was about to attack again, a voice carrying a sacred aura suddenly rang out.

"Enough!"

A dazzling golden light suddenly gathered in the sky, and Bo Saixi slowly descended from the pillar of light.

The others hurriedly knelt. "Greetings, Great High Priest."

Lin Xiao stood rooted to the spot. Looking at the exquisite young woman, his heart began to race. This was the first time in his life he had ever seen someone so beautiful.

After everyone had knelt, Lin Xiao was still too stunned to come to his senses.

It was not until a teacher shouted that Lin Xiao snapped out of it.

"Lin Xiao, why aren't you paying respects to Lord High Priest? Do you have a death wish?"

"Huh?" By the time Lin Xiao reacted, Bo Saixi was already standing before him.

The fragrance of roses wafted from Bo Saixi's body. Lin Xiao could not help taking a deep breath. This feeling was... comfortable.

Even Lin Xiao found it hard to breathe under Bo Saixi's aura. This was the pressure brought by their difference in rank.

"What... is your name?"

Those four simple words caused an uproar in everyone's hearts. The Great Priest rarely even spoke, much less conversed with ants like them.

Yet today, she had actually asked for the name of an unknown brat.

"Lin Xiao."

Bo Saixi nodded. "Lin Xiao, I'll remember you. Cultivate well."

Though Bo Saixi's voice was somewhat cold, Lin Xiao did not care.

"Big sister."

Bo Saixi, who had been about to leave, suddenly froze. She turned around. "You called me big sister?"

"Of course."

Bo Saixi narrowed her eyes. After a brief pause, she smiled faintly, turned, and vanished.

Once Bo Saixi's oppressive aura was gone, everyone stood up and wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads. Some even looked at Lin Xiao as though he were a monster.

He had been completely unaffected by the Great Priest's pressure. Was he even human?

Lin Xiao patted Li Bai on the shoulder. "Go back first."

"Yes."

After recalling Li Bai, Lin Xiao whistled as he headed out of the academy. Since he had come to this world, he had to live up to the standards of a transmigrator.

Otherwise, countless fellow men would surely tear him to pieces.

After leaving the academy, Lin Xiao followed his memories to the back mountain of Sea God Island.

The back mountain was not filled with towering trees, but with an alluring Peach Blossom Forest. There were several hundred peach blossom trees in all, each personally planted by the Great Priest, Bo Saixi.

Ordinary people rarely came here. First, because Bo Saixi would punish them; second, because the place was protected by a restriction.

Lin Xiao looked at the blue mist before him. This was the poison barrier Bo Saixi had personally set up. Ordinary people could not enter at all.

But who was Lin Xiao? He was the Asura God's biological grandson.

He carried some divine power bestowed by the Asura God. Ordinary toxins could hardly corrode his body—of course, even the deadliest poison could not harm him.

After he stepped inside, the sight before him left Lin Xiao dumbfounded.

The peach forest had been divided apart. A path paved with fine bluestone ran through its center, leading to a pavilion. Beside the pavilion was a small stream, where crimson koi played in the water.

Inside the pavilion sat a woman. She stared blankly at the pond below, her eyes unfocused as though lost in thought.

The moment Lin Xiao snapped a branch beneath his foot, Bo Saixi abruptly turned around. When she saw him, her brows furrowed.

"How did you get in?"

Bo Saixi slowly raised her right hand, and Lin Xiao's body seemed to be seized by something as he flew toward her.

"Big sister, I was just wandering around."

Bo Saixi sneered and threw Lin Xiao to the ground. "Do you think I'd believe that? Lin Xiao, you're very unusual. I can't quite see through you. To pass through the poison barrier I set up, one needs to be at least a Rank 95 Titled Douluo, yet you're only a Spirit Emperor."

Over the past eighteen years, without the Asura God's help, Lin Xiao had cultivated to the level of a Spirit Emperor through sheer perseverance alone.

He was the first person in history to achieve such a feat.

"Hehe, I don't know either. It just seems useless against me."

Bo Saixi frowned, but soon relaxed again. This little fellow had left a fairly good impression on her, so she did not make things difficult for him.

"If there's nothing else, go back."

Bo Saixi's voice contained no emotion. She turned and continued gazing at the fish in the pond.

Naturally, Lin Xiao was not about to leave just like that. He turned and sat in a chair, catching Bo Saixi somewhat by surprise.

Even Titled Douluos would leave at a single word from her, yet this little fellow actually dared disobey her?

"Big sister, have some tea."

Lin Xiao picked up a teacup from the table and offered it to her.

Bo Saixi glanced at Lin Xiao, took the cup, and drained it in one gulp.

"If you have something to say, say it."

"I don't have anything to say. I just want to keep you company."

Bo Saixi sneered. "Hehe, boy, I advise you to give up that idea."

Lin Xiao did not care. "What's wrong with that? You live your life, and I'll like you my way. Neither of us will get in the other's way."

Bo Saixi did not look at Lin Xiao. She picked up fish food from the table and tossed it into the water. Watching the fish frantically fight over it, Bo Saixi let out a sigh.

With another wave of her hand, the fish food in the water silently disappeared.

Lin Xiao saw it all. He could sense the fish fighting for food. What did that mean?

After a long while, Bo Saixi slowly rose to her feet and headed toward the edge of the forest.

Lin Xiao hurried after her. "Big sister, wait for me."

Without looking back, Bo Saixi left behind only one sentence.

"If you can catch up to me within a day, I can give you a chance to stay. Otherwise, leave Sea God Island."

Then, Bo Saixi transformed into the wind and disappeared.

"Damn it, how am I supposed to catch her?"

Lin Xiao could not help stomping his foot and cursing. He did not even know where she was going. How was he supposed to chase her?

"Right, I still have the system."

"System Daddy, get to work. Help me check what Bo Saixi likes to eat, what she likes to do, and where she is."

Ding: Scanning everything about Bo Saixi. Please wait~

The sun set beyond the western hills.

Inside Sea God Hall.

Bo Saixi sat off to one side, while an elderly man dressed in a blue robe sat at the center. He appeared to be around seventy or eighty years old, yet one could still sense the terrifying aura radiating from him.

It was even more terrifying than that of Level 99 Peerless Douluo Bo Saixi.

It was an unmatched feeling, one that inspired awe in both body and soul.

This man was the Sea God, Poseidon.

After hearing Bo Saixi's account, he stroked his little mustache and chuckled.

Others might not know, but how could he not? He had merely helped keep it secret.

"Bo Saixi, don't concern yourself with this boy. Let him do whatever he wants. If anything happens, help him settle it."
