Qian Daoliu: It's over! I forgot my weapon for the fight!
Just last night, after she was "invited" back from outside the city.
Led by Golden Crocodile Douluo, a group of elders convened an emergency meeting overnight regarding "the Spirit Hall's commitment to ensuring the stability of logistical supplies for high-level combat forces."
The core issue of the meeting was singular: how to prevent Comrade Ning Rongrong from "running away from home" again.
At the meeting, Golden Crocodile Douluo spoke passionately, pointing out the seriousness of the problem with great sorrow.
"If Comrade Ning Rongrong leaves, we will face a serious 'barbecue crisis'! The consequences will be unimaginable!"
"This woman possesses not just simple culinary skills, but a strategic core technology that concerns the future happiness index of our Spirit Hall!"
His words resonated deeply with all the Title Douluo present, who nodded in agreement.
Ultimately, the meeting unanimously passed a "Proposal on the Protection of Strategic Talents at the Highest Level".
The proposal stipulates that, in order to protect the personal safety of Comrade Ning Rongrong, a rare technical talent, she shall be under 24-hour close protection starting immediately.
To put it bluntly, they're treating her like a prisoner.
Even when you go to the toilet, there are two Title Douluo guarding the door!
This is why, after a busy night, she, the "personal barbecue chef," not only couldn't catch up on sleep, but was also able to sit here and enjoy a proper meal.
After this meal, let's rest a bit, we still have to grill tonight!
Thinking of this, Ning Rongrong's tears flowed even more fiercely, and she ate her rice even faster.
If you don't eat your fill, how can you have the strength to cry, and how can you have the strength to continue being a slave to these old robbers!
"I was wrong! I was wrong, Xi Xi! I was wrong!"
"I shouldn't have broken your scepter! I'll pay for it! I'll give you the Pope Scepter, okay?! Stop hitting me!"
On the other hand, the epic battle between the two Peerless Douluo that the Seven Sacred Pillars had imagined, lasting for several days, did not take place.
This battle ended remarkably quickly, or rather, Qian Daoliu was defeated remarkably quickly.
The reason is quite simple.
Firstly, he had been flying for a day and a night, traversing most of the continent, and his Soul Power had long been depleted, so his physical condition was far from peak.
Secondly, and most importantly, this is Sea God Island, Bo Saixi's home turf!
On this Sea God Island, Bo Saixi can call upon the Sea God Divine Power to fight without restraint, and the entire sea seems to have become her armory!
Qian Daoliu had just used his Angel Domain to carve out a space for himself, and hadn't even had a chance to catch his breath.
The next second, Bo Saixi made a gesture with her slender hand.
A Golden Trident, formed from pure seawater and divine power, appeared out of thin air in her hand!
As soon as that thing appeared, the entire Sea God Island went dark.
The projection of Sea God Trident!
Although this thing is not the artifact itself, its enhancement is enough to make Bo Saixi's combat power increase dramatically in a short period of time!
The moment Qian Daoliu saw that thing, he was completely dumbfounded.
It's just a fight, why did you have to pull out the projection of the Sea God's divine artifact?
Qian Daoliu was internally ranting and raving, but his actions didn't slow down at all.
You have a magical gadget, and so do I!
Qian Daoliu suddenly stretched his right hand towards the sky, striking a pose that was as cool as could be, while muttering something childish to himself.
"Angel Holy Sword, come!"
He held that cool pose for a full three seconds.
The sea breeze blew, ruffling his disheveled hair.
A seabird flew by and pooped on his head.
The sword just didn't come.
Qian Daoliu's expression instantly darkened.
Etc.
Where is my sword?
Qian Daoliu maintained his raised right hand and waited for two more seconds.
Still hasn't come.
Only then did Qian Daoliu's mind go blank.
Damn it!
I was in such a hurry that I forgot to bring the Angel Holy Sword!
Playing away from home, in poor form, and without any weapons.
What's the point of fighting?!
As a result, Qian Daoliu was ultimately pinned to the beach and thoroughly humiliated by Bo Saixi.
In Sea God Temple, the seven Sacred Pillar Douluo watched as their High Priest beat the Spirit Hall's Grand Elder until he was bruised and battered. They all kept their eyes down, pretending to be like rocks.
We can't afford to mess with them.
I've finished arguing, and I've vented my anger.
Bo Saixi, with a cold face, looked down at Qian Daoliu, who was lying on the ground pretending to be dead, and pointed in the direction of the mainland.
"Roll."
Upon hearing this, Qian Daoliu immediately sprang to his feet, dusted himself off, and laughed.
"Xi Xi, look, you've fought now, and your anger has subsided. Can't you come back with me now?"
Bo Saixi:?
Seven Sacred Pillar Douluo:??
Did you misunderstand what I was saying?
Bo Saixi was so angry that her chest started to ache again.
She took a deep breath, decided not to stoop to the level of this lunatic, and turned to walk away.
But she hadn't walked far when she noticed that Qian Daoliu had followed her.
That guy was like a piece of chewing gum stuck to the sole of my shoe; I couldn't shake him off.
Bo Saixi took a step.
He took a step along.
Bo Saixi stopped.
He stopped as well, and even took the opportunity to admire the scenery of Sea God Island, displaying a shameless "I didn't do anything" attitude.
Bo Saixi quickened her pace, her skirt tracing a graceful arc in the wind, almost as if she were walking along the edge of a cliff.
Without saying a word, Qian Daoliu unleashed his Soul Power and followed closely behind.
Maintaining a perfect distance that expresses "I'm pursuing you" without being too offensive.
Finally, Bo Saixi, unable to bear it any longer, turned around abruptly and shouted angrily:
What exactly do you want?
"I'll take you away."
Qian Daoliu answered confidently, his face full of an expression that said, "How can you not even understand this?"
He solemnly raised one finger, his expression as dignified as if he were announcing the will of Angel God.
"I'm telling you, Xi Xi, I'm not leaving."
"Unless you come with me to the Maple Dye Pavilion and take up the position of deputy captain of security!"
Bo Saixi ignored him and turned to leave at top speed.
Upon seeing this, Qian Daoliu immediately followed along eagerly.
The two of them walked ahead and chased after each other, staging a bizarre chase within the Sea God Temple.
It wasn't until lunchtime that we arrived.
Sea God Temple.
The maids carried exquisite white jade platters, carefully placing plates of delicacies, each one a work of art and exuding the spirit of the sea, onto Bo Saixi's table.
Bo Saixi pressed her aching temples, finally able to have some peace and quiet.
Of the Seven Sacred Pillar Douluo, only the Sea Witch, that dim-witted fool, dared to stay.
The other six had long since been frightened by their high priest's gloomy expression and slipped back to their respective Sacred Pillar.
"Lord Bo Saixi, may I have lunch with you here?"
The Sea Witch blinked her big eyes and asked innocently.
Bo Saixi looked at her, his mood improving slightly, and nodded.
However, the next second...
"Sizzle--"
A harsh, screeching sound of a chair being dragged across the floor rang out.
Bo Saixi's eyelids twitched suddenly.
She saw that Qian Daoliu, that shameless bastard, had somehow pulled up a chair and, very familiarly, plopped down opposite her!
Bo Saixi's hand, holding the chopsticks, had veins bulging.
"Who told you to sit down! Get up!"
However, Qian Daoliu paid no attention to Bo Saixi's reprimand. He even took out a set of gold-rimmed bowls and chopsticks from his Soul Tool.
He picked up a piece of the most exquisite "deep-sea silver cod" from the plate in front of Bo Saixi and, under the other's murderous gaze, leisurely stuffed it into his mouth.
"Oh, Xi Xi, why are we being so formal with each other?"
He chewed and mumbled indistinctly, preparing to offer a few more comments.
But before he could finish speaking, his chewing suddenly slowed down.
Then, it stopped.
That face, which had initially held a somewhat roguish smile, gradually stiffened.
"Pooh--!"
Finally, he suddenly turned his head and spat out what was in his mouth.
