—------------------—
Poseidon's projection of divine sense fluctuated violently, clearly struck where it hurt.
The trident, his Divine Tool, was indeed casually stuck by Xuan Ming at the entrance of the Angel Divine Hall as a decoration. If the Angel God's inheritor were to bring it to Sea God Island to provoke him... the scene was simply unimaginable!
"You..." Poseidon's voice carried suppressed anger, "Are you threatening this God?"
"No, if you don't give it, I won't force you. I can also imdiately retrieve your trident and return it to you," Xuan Ming said.
"However, I've had new insights into my Dragon Emperor Overlord Sea Break recently and want to test it out. I wonder... if the Seagod's Light can withstand it?"
He paused, then added, "Of course, I will try my best to control the power and won't actually pierce through Sea God Island. After all, the scenery here is quite good."
"..."
Bo Saixi's beautiful face completely froze. She felt her breathing almost stop.
This guy... this guy was actually bargaining with the safety of Sea God Island?!
And trying his best to control the power?
And the scenery is quite good?!
This was beyond audacious; this was simply... insane!
Poseidon's projection of divine sense flickered violently, the golden light constantly dimming and brightening, indicating the extre turmoil in its owner's heart.
Anger? Frustration? Helplessness? And even a hint of... absurd amusent?
He, the dignified Sea God, sovereign of the oceans, supre and unparalleled, was today being "extorted" by a re junior from the lower realm, using his own Divine Tool and his own inherited land?!
If this were to spread, what would beco of his reputation as the Sea God?!
"Kid!" Poseidon's voice was almost squeezed out through gritted teeth, "Do you know what you're saying?!"
"I do." Xuan Ming nodded, his face calm, "I am negotiating with you. One god-bestowed spirit ring for the peace of Sea God Island, plus the safety of your trident. A very fair transaction."
"Transaction?!" Poseidon's voice rose a few octaves, "You call this a transaction?!"
"What else?" Xuan Ming retorted, "Forced buying and selling? That's not good. I always believe in fairness."
"Don't forget, I helped you deal with the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, and I will help you deal with the Evil Spirit Orca King next, which indirectly helps you maintain the order of the ocean."
"Moreover, I even helped you bring back the Sea God's Heart. The people on your Sea God Island are so careless, and I kindly helped you bring it back. Shouldn't you thank ?"
Xuan Ming's "righteous" additions completely froze Poseidon's projection of divine sense.
Bo Saixi listened, dumbfounded, feeling her Worldview being repeatedly refreshed.
Dealt with the Deep Sea Demon Whale King? Maintained ocean order? Sea God's Heart? Helped bring it back? And he wanted thanks?
This... could all of this be counted as his rit and kindness?!
Bo Saixi watched from the side, heart pounding, truly fearing that Sea God would unleash divine punishnt in a fit of rage.
However, to her surprise, after intense emotional fluctuations, Poseidon actually... slowly cald down.
The golden projection no longer flickered, but emitted an extrely complex emotional fluctuation, mixed with annoyance, helplessness, and even a hint of appreciation.
After a long while, Poseidon's voice sounded again, with a deep, almost resigned helplessness: "...Good kid! You really got !"
He truly hadn't expected that this kid, who seed to have the sa temperant as Asura, would also be a master at being a scoundrel!
Even more shaless than Evil!
"Alright, alright..." Poseidon sighed, his voice full of powerlessness, "It's just one god-bestowed spirit ring. Take it!"
As his voice fell, a golden orb of light, even more condensed and with purer, vaster energy than the one in Xuan Ming's hand, appeared out of thin air before Xuan Ming, slowly floating.
Within the orb, a vast ocean seed to surge, with imnse Life energy.
"Take it!" Poseidon's voice carried a hint of exasperation, "Quickly put away your broken move! Don't experint blindly at my doorstep!"
"Is this god-bestowed spirit ring... expensive?" Xuan Ming couldn't help but ask.
"..." Poseidon.
"What do you an?"
"If it's not expensive, why don't you... let owe you a few more?" Xuan Ming said.
"You've seen it; Nana and the others are cultivating incredibly fast. Their demand for spirit rings will be huge, but..."
Xuan Ming paused, "Uh, Heaven has the virtue of cherishing Life, isn't that how it goes?"
"It's not easy for Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beasts to cultivate either. With so many of them and such a great demand, as the Sea God..."
As soon as Xuan Ming spoke these words, the atmosphere in the Sea God Temple, which had just slightly eased, instantly froze again!
Bo Saixi's beautiful face completely lost all expression. She even suspected she was hallucinating.
He... he actually wanted to owe a few more?!
And he even set his sights on Ning Rongrong and the others?!
He even brought up phrases like "Heaven has the virtue of cherishing Life"?!
"Can't you have so sha?" Poseidon said, speechless.
"What does this have to do with my sha?" Xuan Ming asked, puzzled.
"They are undergoing their God Test on your territory, so they can barely be considered half your followers. And you've seen their talent. Take Nana, Rongrong, and Xiao Wu, for example; the three of them have a high probability of reaching the God realm in the future. If they succeed, it would bring you honor, wouldn't it?"
"Now, if you're even reluctant to give a few god-bestowed spirit rings, then when they ascend to the God Realm in the future, word will spread everywhere that the dignified Sea God..."
Xuan Ming deliberately drew out his tone, leaving a aningful blank.
Poseidon's projection of divine sense trembled violently, the golden light flickering, clearly infuriated by this "threat."
"You... you are ruining this God's reputation!" Poseidon's voice was trembling.
"How can you call it ruining?" Xuan Ming looked puzzled, "I am helping you maintain your image. Think about it, if other Divinities knew that the Sea God was even reluctant to give a few god-bestowed spirit rings to his own examinees..."
He deliberately paused, letting Poseidon imagine the scene himself.
Bo Saixi listened, dumbfounded.
She had never seen anyone describe "extortion" in such a fresh and refined manner!
...God Realm, within the Divine Hall.
"Asura, did you see that? This kid is simply..."
"You brought it upon yourself." Asura God took a sip of tea, expressionless.
"It was you who coaxed and tricked him to Sea God Island, and it was you who secretly helped him rge with the Sea God's Heart. Don't think I don't know."
How could Xuan Ming have forcibly rged with the Sea God's Heart without gaining any Sea God affinity?
It was just that when Xuan Ming chose to resolve Blood Spear's problem in such a tragic way, they simply turned a blind eye.
Poseidon was choked by Asura God's single sentence, and the golden light of his divine sense projection dimd a few shades.
"I was..." Poseidon wanted to argue, but found himself speechless.
It was indeed he who first recognized Xuan Ming's potential and then used Bibi Dong's Rakshasa inheritance issue to lure him to Sea God Island. However, he never expected that inviting a God was easy, but sending one away was hard; this kid was simply a lawless individual.
"We were both played by him; you just have to endure it too." Asura God said lightly.
"It's just a few god-bestowed spirit rings; it's just a loss of face."
"Exactly. Besides, weren't you planning to set him up with Bo Saixi anyway?" the God of Evil said.
"Consider it an early dowry."
"If you're really unhappy, you can slowly get back at him in the later God Tests, couldn't you?"
Poseidon raised an eyebrow, "You're right."
"That brat, daring to extort ..."
