Bo Saixi

Lin Fan took another sip of water.

Qian Xunji remembered his own words and said, "I understand. I think this Grand Worshipper of the Sea God is a very special person."

That's why two Peerless Douluo are pursuing her at the same time.

Qian Xunji's words were loaded with meaning.

Qian Daoliu could tell that this was exactly what Qian Xunji was worried about.

Lin Fan nodded and said, "The Grand Worshipper of the Sea God is named Bo Saixi, but I suspect it's been changed. After all, the Sea God is called Poseidon, but a name is just a nickname."

"The Village Chief is right. Bo Saixi, as Peerless Douluo and the Grand Worshipper of the Sea God, is very old, but looks about thirty years old and is about 1.8 meters tall. In the original novel, Bo Saixi is described as having long sea-blue hair and wearing a bright red robe."

"In the anime, Bo Saixi has long white hair and wears a red and white robe. But regardless of her appearance, it's clear that Bo Saixi's looks are no less than Pope Bibi Dong's, and her refined demeanor, cultivated over many years, even surpasses Bibi Dong's."

Upon Bibi Dong's lips curled into a slight smile, thinking to herself, "As expected, Lin Fan is comparing me to someone else again. How annoying..."

"Damn it!"

As soon as Lin Fan finished speaking, their gazes turned to Bibi Dong.

Qian Xunji and Qian Daoliu shook their heads simultaneously.

Yue Guan stroked his chin and looked her over. "The Saintess is so carefree, how could her demeanor be as elegant as mine? How could her temperament be as exceptional as mine?"

Bibi Dong clenched her fists and thought to herself, "What... what kind of looks are those?!"

Lin Fan exclaimed, "Therefore, Bo Saixi's beauty cannot be judged solely by her appearance; rather, it is more about her noble and elegant demeanor, and the confident aura of a true powerhouse."

"Especially those sapphire eyes, deeper than the ocean, carrying an ancient and timeless beauty."

"Therefore, in the eyes of the others on Sea God Island, Bo Saixi's power was so great that she could mobilize the Vast Sea Power of the ocean, making her practically no different from a god."

After Lin Fan finished his introduction, Qian Xunji and the others began to think.

Bibi Dong asked Youyou, "Lin Fan, how come you remember Bo Saixi so clearly?"

Lin Fan laughed and said without restraint, "Dong'er, I'm just discovering and appreciating beauty. It's all because anime models the characters so well."

"Of course, this is a fictional character; such a person doesn't exist in reality, and even if they did, they would be extremely rare."

Bibi Dong pressed on, "Then Bibi Dong, you liked Bibi Dong before, where did her beauty rank in your heart?"

After asking her question, Bibi Dong stared intently at Lin Fan with her beautiful eyes.

Lin Fan felt a chill run through his body, his scalp tingled, and goosebumps rose on his skin.

"Uh!" Lin Fan pondered.

Hearing Bibi Dong's question, Yue Guan covered her mouth and chuckled, her eyes revealing a look of anticipation.

After a while, Lin Fan said, "Of course, it's still Bibi Dong. Bo Saixi is a bit too old; she's old enough to be my grandmother."

Bibi Dong pointed at Lin Fan and said, "Oh... you hesitated!"

"However, you're right, I also like Bibi Dong."

Lin Fan secretly wiped away a bead of cold sweat and said, "What's going on...?" He felt a little relieved after saying that.

Qian Xunji said helplessly, "Alright, Dong'er, stop fooling around."

He changed the subject, saying, "Lin Fan, so Qian Xunji's decision to send people to attack Sea God Island was a very foolish move."

Lin Fan laughed and said, "Of course it's stupid. To arrogantly and blindly invade someone else's territory without knowing their strength is bound to result in heavy losses."

"Because of this incident, Sea God Island added a new rule: people from the Spirit Hall are not allowed on the island, let alone participate in any Divine Trial."

"In the original story, when the Shrek Seven Devils arrived on the island, because of their young age and high Soul Power Level, they were mistaken for people from the Spirit Hall and almost thrown into the sea to be fed to sharks."

Qian Xunji continued, "So, instead of attacking Sea God Island, the Spirit Hall sent people to have friendly exchanges with Sea God Island?"

Do you think the Spirit Hall and Sea God Island can establish a friendly relationship?

Lin Fan said, "Village Chief, you want me to make an assumption, right?"

"Yes," Qian Xunji replied, "Let's assume..."

"Hypothetically speaking," Lin Fan thought for a moment.

Even assuming it's just a friendly exchange, I think it's highly unlikely.

Qian Xunji, asking, "Why?"

Lin Fan explained, "First, our lifestyles are different, and our perceptions are different. There's a significant difference between us and people from mainland China."

"Secondly, their beliefs are different, and this is very important. You must understand that the Spirit Hall worships the Angel God, while Sea God Island worships the Sea God."

"Perhaps they can communicate normally at first, but over time, conflicts will arise due to differences in beliefs. This is not uncommon in our history."

"After all, faith is very important in the Douluo Continent novel; in Fantasy Novel, faith is a real thing."

"Therefore, as the exchanges continued, the Spirit Hall worried that its people would change their beliefs and worship the Sea God. Conversely, Sea God Island was also worried that its people's beliefs would change."

"Therefore, based solely on the issue of faith, it would be very difficult for the Spirit Hall and Sea God Island to establish a friendly and cooperative relationship."

Lin Fan's words about faith immediately drew the attention of Qian Xunji and Qian Daoliu.

Their previous discussions had all overlooked the issue of faith.

Therefore, their discussions were all conducted without bringing up faith, and now they need to change their strategy.

Soon, Qian Daoliu gave Qian Xunji a look and secretly transmitted his voice, "Keep asking him if it's okay if it's just a matter of mutual benefit."

Qian Xunji nodded slightly to Qian Daoliu and asked Lin Fan, "Xiao Fan, what if the Spirit Hall negotiates with Sea God Island for mutual benefit?"

"For example, Sea God Island is probably short of supplies like food. Could the Spirit Hall trade supplies with Sea God Island in exchange for people from the Spirit Hall to participate in the Sea God's Sea God Trial?"

"After it's over, we can ensure that Sea God Island won't detain the Spirit Hall's geniuses and allow them to return to the Spirit Hall."

Lin Fan asked in surprise, "What if it's just enticement without coercion?"

Qian Xunji nodded heavily and said, "Yes, it's just a simple exchange of benefits."

Lin Fan pondered, "This is indeed a very interesting topic, worth exploring in depth."

"If the Spirit Hall hadn't had any conflicts with Sea God Island, and it were just a matter of enticement, perhaps a deal could be reached, since both sides would get what they wanted."

"But this is just a hypothetical scenario. After all, this didn't happen in the original story, so I can't give you a definitive answer."

All I can say is, it's worth a try.

Qian Daoliu then spoke up, "What if we combine enticement with coercion?"

Lin Fan stated firmly, "Coercion is absolutely out of the question. I can only say that this method is incredibly stupid!"

Qian Xunji asked again, curiously, "Why!"

"Why?!" Lin Fan was taken aback. "It's simple. Even if the Spirit Hall Spirit Hall successfully coerced someone, would they dare let a genius participate in the Divine Position Assessment?"

"Putting everything else aside, even if we can participate, what if Sea God Island, after being coerced, tampers with the assessment?"

"If Sea God Island were to tamper with the assessment, the Spirit Hall would not only fail to inflict heavy losses on the enemy, but would also suffer significant self-inflicted damage."

Therefore, using both bribery and coercion is a foolish approach.
