"Are you telling me how to do my job?"
The Sea God did not listen to a single word of Bo Saixi's well-intentioned advice. Instead, he felt she was sticking her nose where it did not belong.
I've dominated the water world for a thousand years and spent all these years as a First-Level God. What right does a mere Divine Servant have to point fingers at me?
I know perfectly well what sort of trash Tang San is. You don't need to keep emphasizing it and making me look blind.
Thus, Poseidon cut the connection on Bo Saixi, refusing to heed her advice. Instead, she urged her to help Tang San complete his Divine Trials as soon as possible. As long as she completed her task, she would not need to perform a Sacrifice in the Ninth Trial.
So the question was, had the Sea God discovered his conscience and suddenly started caring about his subordinate?
The answer was, of course, no.
Even if Poseidon played dirty and insisted on passing her position to Tang San, the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud (Sea God's Heart) was still an important medium. Without it, her pitchfork would have no soul.
Thus, when Tang San undertook the Ninth Trial, the High Priest's Sacrifice alone would not suffice. Human strength alone could not reach the Divine Realm at all; she, the Deity herself, would have to step in.
