"Due to the host's Sea God Affinity reaching one hundred and thirty percent,"
"the difficulty of the Sea God's Ninth Quest has drastically reduced, all you need to do is enter the Inheritance Gate to receive the complete Sea God inheritance!"
Bossi: ???
Sea Dragon Douluo and the others were stupefied, their eyeballs almost popping out in astonishment.
This... Is this even possible?
Completely outrageous.
This isn't a reduction in difficulty, this is basically handing out godhood for free, damn it.
You might as well not call it the Sea God's Nine Quests anymore. Where's the challenge now? Even throwing a dog through the Inheritance Gate would easily inherit the godhood, right?
At this moment,
Everyone had the same thought in their hearts.
That was Luo Yu must be the Sea God.
He could freely control the content of the assessment.
Not revealing his identity now, firstly, was a chance to test them, and secondly, he was probably playing with the mortals, presumably bored in the Divine Realm and looking for some fun with them.
Then it's better not to expose him, better to continue to play along with Lord Sea God.
Luo Yu said speechlessly, "What are you all looking at me with those eyes for? You don't really think I'm some kind of Sea God, do you?"
"Right, you're not, you're not," said Sea Dragon Douluo cheerfully,
The others quickly nodded in agreement.
"Uh..."
Luo Yu didn't know what to say for a moment.
Looking towards the location where the light screen had disappeared.
He mulled it over silently, the Sea God seemed eager for him to give up the godhood.
It came off a bit too desperate.
But though godhood is tempting and could elevate one instantly, after careful consideration, Luo Yu decided to put it aside for now.
Could he rush to the Divine Realm and rule everything with the Sea God godhood? Nope.
Could he assist Gu Yuena in opposing the ancient Divine Kings with the Sea God godhood? Obviously not.
Furthermore, if the Sea God godhood changed hands, all deities in the Divine Realm would probably take notice, putting him under the spotlight, which would be greatly unfavorable for him.
According to Luo Yu's original intention, he wanted to develop steadily in the mortal realm, trying not to alarm any deities.
If it wasn't for the task of capturing Bossi, if it wasn't for his desire to claim the Sea God's Trident rightfully,
He wouldn't have come to Sea God's Island at all.
After all, although the Sea God is rumored to be benevolent, what if he wasn't?
Sea Dragon Douluo came over, bowed respectfully, and said,
"Sea God... No, Lord Luo Yu, shall we return to Sea God's Island to rest?"
Luo Yu glanced at him.
He took Bai Xiuxiu's small hand.
"Let's go, it's time to head back."
...
"Xiu Xiu, what did you say? That Lord actually killed the Deepsea Devil Whale King?"
"The one with the cultivation level close to a million years?"
Deep in the ocean, the White Shark Clan Leader was shocked to hear her daughter's words and let out an incredulous exclamation.
The surrounding hundreds of Devil Soul Great White Sharks looked on in disbelief, declaring it impossible.
"Mom, there's only that one Deepsea Devil Whale King in the entire sea zone!" Bai Xiuxiu pouted.
"Are you sure you're not just joking with mom?" the White Shark Clan Leader's voice trembled.
Bai Xiuxiu rolled her eyes, "Tch, if you don't believe me, go check the Devil Whale Sea Zone and see if that bad guy is still there."
The White Shark Clan Leader's eyes bulged.
"Forget it, you're just asking mom to go seek death. If I dared to go, that creature could swallow me alive in a minute."
"Ugh, how am I supposed to make you believe?"
"Brother Yu is really powerful."
"He scattered the soul of the Deepsea Devil Whale King in just a few rounds."
Bai Xiuxiu narrated the course of the battle with animated delight.
The surrounding hundreds of Devil Soul Great White Sharks listened in stunned silence while the White Shark Clan Leader's breathing quickened.
"Really... really killed it?"
Bai Xiuxiu hummed softly.
"Fine, if you don't believe it, that's up to you. I'm going back to find Brother Yu. I just came back to tell you, so you wouldn't worry."
The White Shark Clan Leader gave a bitter smile.
"Mom's not that she doesn't believe you, it's just that what you're saying is too unbelievable."
"At my level, I understand all too well how powerful the Deepsea Devil Whale King is."
"I understand now just how terrifying and heaven-defying the strength needed to kill the Deepsea Devil Whale King must be."
"Well then, I won't keep you, it's getting late and Xiu Xiu needs to go back and sleep with Brother Yu."
Bai Xiuxiu playfully stuck out her tongue and dexterously swam upwards from the sea floor, like an elegant and graceful mermaid.
The White Shark Clan Leader stood frozen in place for a long time.
He finally made a decision.
He issued orders to the hundreds of clan members around him.
"I'm going into seclusion. All clan members must guard the surroundings and not leave even for a moment."
Having said that, the White Shark Clan Leader swam towards a deeper cave.
At that moment, a powerful presence in the form of a Devil Soul Great White Shark caught up to him.
"Clan Leader, forgive my presumption, but what exactly are you secluding yourself for?"
The White Shark Clan Leader looked into the distance at the sea bottom.
His gaze was lingering.
Flickering with strange colors.
"Transformative Form!"
...
On the shore, it was now night.
The stars in the sky were obscured by clouds, and the entire Sea God's Island was enveloped in the darkness of night.
"Creak!"
The door opened and closed.
Luo Yu emerged from Purple Pearl's room with a flushed face.
Through the gap in the door, one could see broken gauze on the floor.
And on the bed, the weakened Purple Pearl was also visible.
Her face, full of exotic charm, was somewhat red and hot.
When he reached the doorway of his own room,
Luo Yu stopped walking.
Because he noticed that the lamp in his room was lit.
Through the window screen, he saw a figure with a beautifully shaped silhouette, silently sitting inside.
In the room,
Bossi was not wearing the red sacrificial robe from the day, but had changed into a noble and elegant court dress.
Her graceful figure was hidden within the court dress, her silver hair cascading like a waterfall, exuding the fresh scent of having been washed.
Her exquisite face seemed to make even the stars in the sky lose their luster.
She was now gripping her slim jade fingers tightly, clearly nervous.
She could even hear her own heartbeat.
Sea God, why aren't you in your room? Are you disappointed in me?
Did I arrive too late and miss the last test from the Sea God?
No!
That can't be.
I clearly came very early, as soon as the sky darkened.
Bossi's rosy lips were now slightly pale, and anxiety began to stir within her.
"Creak!"
The door moved as it was pushed open, and Bossi's face lit up with joy in an instant.
So the Sea God had not abandoned her after all.
He had returned!
As Luo Yu pushed open the door and caught that glimpse of joy on Bossi's face,
he was slightly bewildered.
What's going on here? Shouldn't this woman be resisting? Why does it seem like she's even more excited than he was?
"You're back?" Bossi rose, bowing slightly in greeting.
"Ah, I'm back."
"Sea... no, Lord Luo Yu, is there anything you need Bossi to do for you?"
Luo Yu's eyes were full of confusion. Could this girl really be treating him as the Sea God?
He decided to test it out.
"Come, help me take off my clothes first."
"Mhm."
"Mhm?"
Bossi initially nodded, then suddenly gasped inwardly.
"Not willing?" Luo Yu raised an eyebrow, "If you're not willing, forget it."
"No, Bossi is willing to serve you."
