• The Sea God's barrier stopped Tang San's attack, and Qin Xiao told him the Sea God was watching and he could not interfere with the inheritance.

• The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King surfaced, sensed the Sea God’s lingering aura, and recognized Qin Xiao, but rejected the possibility that Qin Xiao was the new Sea God.

Qin Xiao organized Sea God Island against Tang San’s expected return and entrusted Bo Saixi with the Sea God Trident while he left to handle other matters.
