Chapter 169 What, You're Telling Me He's Going to Inherit Godhood?_1

Translator: 549690339

The Sea Horse Douluo immediately regretted his words after he had spoken.

He noticed that everyone around had directed their puzzled looks at him.

A bitter smile appeared on his face, "Don't look at me like that, in truth, I don't know what the appearance of the Sea God's mark on this guy's forehead represents."

As he spoke, he shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands in a helpless manner.

"So, is Qin Xiao now good or bad?"

Ning Rongrong asked with significant worry.

Zhu Zhuqing and the others, although silent, also had faces full of tension.

The Sea Horse Douluo helplessly replied, "This, I still don't know..."

Ning Rongrong raised her eyebrows and said angrily, "Aren't you the guardian of the Sea Horse Sacred Pillar, the person in charge on Sea God's Island second only to the Great Priest? And you don't know this?"

"No need to make it hard for him. Since the emergence of Sea God's Island, this kind of situation has also never occurred before. Your companion hasn't received an examination from the Sea God, but from an existence of a higher level...."

An abrupt voice resounded in everyone's ears.

Everyone instinctively looked in the direction of the sound, only to see a red figure appearing about two or three hundred meters away. In the next moment, they only felt the Space seemingly twist slightly, and there was already an additional person in front of the Sea Horse Sacred Pillar.

She was tall, her whole body enshrouded in a layer of brilliant red robes, with sea-blue hair draping behind her, almost touching the ground.

Noble, elegant, and the gentle warmth she exuded were all insufficient to describe her aura.

Apart from the extraordinarily beautiful face, the scepter in her right hand was also impossible to ignore.

The scepter was at least three meters long, all in gold, and engraved with magic patterns, with a spear-like diamond protrusion at the top. Just five inches below the spear tip, a diamond-shaped golden gem was embedded.

As everyone sized her up, her eyes, deeper than the sea, slowly swept across each person present.

Instinctively, they all diverted their gaze elsewhere, not daring to make eye contact.

"Greetings, Great Priest."

The Sea Horse Douluo slightly bowed, saluting the woman in red robes, "I've been negligent in my duties, disturbing your seclusion for cultivation. Please punish me, Great Priest."

Without a doubt, the only one who could command such respect from the Sea Horse Douluo on the whole Sea God's Island was none other than the supreme Great Priest, the Sea God Douluo Bossi!

Zhu Zhuqing, Meng Yiran, and the others were attracted by the voice of the Sea Dragon Douluo.

Their eyes also fell on Bossi, and they were momentarily stunned.

"Is this the legendary Great Priest of Sea God's Island?"

"To be, to be so beautiful!"

"..."

Everyone was astonished.

It must be said, the contrast was extreme.

They had thought the supreme being in charge of the affairs of Sea God's Island would be quite old by now, right?

At the worst, gray-haired.

But in reality, the person in charge of Sea God's Island turned out to be an extremely beautiful woman...

It was simply... outrageous.

At this moment, Bossi slightly shook her head, her face showing not much expression, "No matter, this isn't your fault. Even I have encountered such a situation for the first time."

"If it weren't for the descriptions personally written by the Sea God in my inherited memories, I wouldn't have known what exactly happened to this young man."

Bossi said, her gaze falling on Qin Xiao.

Her expression was indescribably complex.

She had never thought that one day her life would be so closely linked to such an unrelated person.

"Great Priest, what exactly is happening with Qin Xiao?"

"What do you mean by a higher level?"

After calming down, Ning Rongrong couldn't help asking.

Her words also spoke for everyone present.

Bossi was silent for a moment before she spoke faintly, "It has always been believed that the ultimate assessment on Sea God's Island is the pinnacle. In fact, that is not the case. In reality, there's a higher inheritance on Sea God's Island, not the Great Priest's inheritance, but the godhood inheritance of the Sea God."

"Great Priest, you just said that this boy's level is higher than the ultimate, does that mean...."

The pupils of the Sea Horse Douluo suddenly contracted, his voice trembled.

Because the truth was too astonishing....

The solemn Bossi stated, "As you've guessed, if he passes the Sea God's test, he will obtain the godhood of the Sea God!"

"Godhood!"

"Hiss..."

As Bossi's words fell, nothing was left in the area but the sound of sharp intakes of breath.

This was simply terrifying.

"We agreed to come here for training, but this guy, he's actually going to become a god?" Ning Rongrong looked at Qin Xiao, utterly speechless.

She had been thinking that by taking advantage of the journey to Sea God's Island, she could have a chance to get closer to Qin Xiao.

But now, it seemed farther than ever.

"His Highness truly deserves to be His Highness, in this lifetime, I fear that I can only ever see his back," Meng Yiran murmured in a very faint voice, her eyes filled with a dazed look.

However, her words did not escape Zhu Zhuqing's ears, "If we don't work hard enough, we may not even be able to see His Highness's back."

At those words, Meng Yiran's delicate body shook violently.

Dugu Yan was the only one without mixed feelings.

She clasped her hands together, her eyes filled with stars as she looked at Qin Xiao.

Full of admiration.

"Great Priest, what should we do now?" the Sea Horse Douluo asked cautiously.

At the same time, he subconsciously glanced at Qin Xiao, not even noticing the respectful tone that had quietly crept into his demeanor.
