Qian Daoliu's Reaction

After Bo Saixi left, the heavy hall doors slowly creaked shut with a dull thud, sealing the interior off from the outside world.

Li Qing stood alone in the vast room, enveloped by the unique tranquility and majestic aura of the Sea God Hall.

He walked to the center of the room, where a soft deep-sea carpet was laid out, and the night-luminescent pearls embedded in the surrounding walls cast a gentle, radiant glow.

He spread his right hand open once more, focusing his intent.

This time, the manifestation of the Mysterious Origin Water-Controlling Flag was smoother than before; the runes on the flag's surface flowed with greater speed, and the power of the water element it radiated felt far more solid.

Although I have this Mysterious Origin Water-Controlling Flag, passing the Sea God Nine Trials shouldn't be much of a problem...

Li Qing stared at the flag, his brows furrowed slightly as he thought to himself, But the issue is, the Sea God Position is ultimately inferior to the Asura God Position. In the original story, the Sea God was suppressed and beaten by the Rakshasa God; if not for Tang San eventually merging the two god positions into one, he never could have won.

His gaze gradually sharpened, his fingers unconsciously stroking the flagpole.

Should I... find a way to make the Sea God hold off the Asura God while I take the opportunity to finish off Tang San? If I do that, even if Qian Renxue becomes the Angel God and Bibi Dong becomes the Rakshasa God, with two first-tier gods joining forces, this young master has the Mysterious Origin Water-Controlling Flag in hand—I won't be afraid in the slightest.

Outside the hall doors, Bo Saixi had not truly departed.

Her slender figure was hidden in the shadows of a colonnade, her cultivation as a ninety-nine-level Peerless Douluo allowing her to perfectly conceal her presence.

When Li Qing's inner voice reached her mind, her deep, ocean-like eyes widened, and her breathing stalled for a heartbeat.

"Asura God Position? Rakshasa God?"

Bo Saixi silently repeated these two unfamiliar divine titles in her heart, her beautiful face filled with shock.

As the High Priestess of the Sea God, she naturally knew of the Angel God, the supreme deity worshipped by Spirit Hall.

But the Asura God and the Rakshasa God were titles she was hearing for the very first time in her life.

"The Asura God Position is actually above the Sea God?"

Bo Saixi keenly captured this crucial piece of information.

Hearing this, she knitted her delicate brows and murmured, "No wonder this child wants to strike first... but who exactly is Tang San? What deep hatred could they possibly have between them?"

Her slender fingers tightened around her golden scepter, her knuckles turning slightly white from the force.

As the supreme High Priestess of Sea God Island, this was the first time in nearly a hundred years she had felt such confusion.

How could a six-year-old child who had never left Sea God Island know so many secrets of the Divine Realm that even she had never heard of?

But to kill Tang San, I can't bypass his father, Tang Hao.

Just then, Li Qing's inner voice came through again: I just don't know if this woman, Bo Saixi, is willing to take action. If she's willing to help, dealing with Tang San and Tang Hao would be as easy as turning over one's hand, after all, she is a ninety-nine-level Peerless Douluo.

"Tang Hao?!" Bo Saixi nearly cried out, hurriedly covering her red lips with her jade-like hand.

Memories from over twenty years ago surged back like a tide.

That genius of the Clear Sky Sect who had come to Sea God Island to deliver a letter—Tang Chen's grandson?

If her memory served her correctly, the Tang Hao of that time had come with his older brother, only to have some conflicts with the other Sacred Pillar Douluos upon arriving at Sea God Island.

Bo Saixi's thoughts raced as she whispered, "If that's the case, then this child wants to kill Tang Chen's great-grandson?"

At this thought, an expression of disbelief appeared on her beautiful face. "But why? They have never met; where would such a grudge come from?"

Bo Saixi leaned gently against the cold pillar, the hem of her red robes spreading out across the floor of the Sea God Hall.

She recalled the scene from over twenty years ago when she had seen Tang Hao—that high-spirited young man.

At the time, she had even secretly admired Tang Hao's talent; she never expected that now...

If Tang Hao knew someone wanted to kill his son, he would likely protect him with his life.

Just then, Li Qing's inner voice interrupted her memories.

But at this point in time, Tang Hao should still be working as a blacksmith near that Holy Soul Village, and Tang San is only about six years old... it's the perfect time to strike.

Bo Saixi's pupils contracted slightly.

Holy Soul Village?

How could Li Qing know so much about this small village that even the Sea God Island's intelligence network had never paid attention to?

He even knew Tang Hao's disguised identity like the back of his hand?

She couldn't help but recall Li Qing's absurd thoughts about "menopause" during the awakening ceremony earlier, and her beautiful face flushed with heat once more.

But soon, her professional discipline allowed her to suppress these distractions and begin to seriously consider the information Li Qing had revealed.

If Bo Saixi isn't willing to act, then I can only rely on my own rapid growth.

Li Qing stroked the Mysterious Origin Water-Controlling Flag, the runes on its surface lighting up with a faint glow at his touch.

Fortunately, with this flag, my cultivation speed shouldn't be slow. Once I complete the Sea God Nine Trials, the first thing I'll do is go slaughter Tang San to nip the trouble in the bud.

Hearing this, Bo Saixi sighed softly.

She straightened up silently, took one last look at the tightly closed hall doors, and turned to leave.

Her high heels made not a single sound as they stepped across the specially crafted floor of the Sea God Hall.

She needed time to digest this startling information, and even more, she needed to figure out just how many more secrets were hidden within Li Qing.

This child was like a stone cast into a calm lake, already stirring ripples deep within her heart.

Meanwhile, far away in Spirit City on the mainland, inside the Consecration Hall.

Qian Daoliu sat quietly before the massive statue of the Six-Winged Angel, his long golden hair cascading down like a waterfall.

This ninety-ninth-level peerless Douluo suddenly opened his eyes, a flash of shock crossing his brilliant golden pupils.

This is... the aura of the Sea God's inheritance?

He stood up abruptly, his gray robes billowing without a breeze, and exclaimed in surprise, "Such a powerful fluctuation of oceanic divine power... could it be that a successor to the god has appeared?"

Qian Daoliu strode to the terrace outside the hall, gazing toward the direction of Sea God Island.

Despite being thousands of miles away, he could clearly perceive that vast fluctuation of oceanic divine power.

As the Great High Priest of the Angel God, he was extremely sensitive to the inheritances of other deities.

"Bo Saixi..." Qian Daoliu murmured this name that filled him with complex emotions, a look of reminiscence flashing in his eyes.

But soon, practical considerations replaced his personal feelings.

He turned and walked back into the depths of the Consecration Hall, his expression grave.

If a new successor had truly appeared on Sea God Island, would that be a favorable outcome for Spirit Hall?

Had Sea God Island forgotten the invasion from years ago, or did they simply not care?

Thinking of this, he clenched his fists, a look of solemnity and determination flashing in his eyes as he whispered, "No, I must go to Sea God Island myself to sound out Bo Saixi, and while I'm at it, see exactly who this genius who obtained the Sea God's inheritance is!"

With that, he stood up and vanished from the Consecration Hall at an incredible speed, heading straight in the direction of Sea God Island.
