Chapter 657: The Shura Field of Palace Intrigue and Bitchy Squabbles
"Anything else..."
Poseixi remained calm and composed, with no sign of anything amiss in her expression.
After all, who else but the Sea God had already laid the groundwork for her...
This is a man who is both fickle and sincere, that is what the Sea God said.
Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu looked at each other, feeling greatly astonished.
In reality, Xiaobai beside them felt even stranger: "What are you two doing? You don't actually think the Master can... develop that kind of relationship with the High Priest, do you?"
Ning Rongrong blinked her bright, large eyes: "No, we're just taking some precautions!"
"Although we know that with stinky brother's ability, saying these things is mostly useless, but still... um, can't help but want to increase the difficulty for him," Xiao Wu said with a giggle.
"Don't you think," Xiaobai pondered, "that when there are no thoughts now, the High Priest won't care about these things, and if there are thoughts in the future, she would have known about it long ago. With psychological preparation, then... what was originally a trump card ends up being useless..."
Ning Rongrong immediately patted her head: "Oh, I remember now, Brother Jian said that if you know all of the other person's shortcomings before falling in love and can still try to get along, then everything discovered for the rest of your life will be advantages, and in the end, you will love each other to death."
"So," Xiao Wu looked back at her coldly: "Are we two providing assists?"
"Possibly..."
Ning Rongrong looked at her, feeling a sense of shared sorrow.
The two almost hugged each other and cried.
"Xiaobai, what kind of nonsense are they talking about..."
Hainv Douluo had recovered a bit and leaned over to Xiaobai's side again.
"I think it's better if you don't know," Xiaobai said awkwardly.
If they found out that her Master came specifically for the High Priest of Sea God Island, Poseixi, they would probably risk their lives right then and there, right?
"High Priest, this Soul Beast King is a Title Douluo of the Spirit Hall," Hailong Douluo reminded.
In his view, as long as the High Priest made a move, this so-called Soul Beast King would not be worth mentioning.
It is a pity he did not know that the Soul Beast King he considered not worth mentioning was exactly the person his High Priest had been waiting for for decades!
"Since you are a Soul Beast King, how could you have a connection with the Spirit Hall?"
Poseixi raised her eyes, her voice carrying a hint of surprise: "As far as I know, the Spirit Hall of the Douluo Continent has always hunted Soul Beasts without mercy."
"Therefore, this Spirit Hall is no longer the Spirit Hall under the leadership of Qian Daoliu, but the Spirit Hall under my leadership," Qin Jian continued to stare at the bridge of her nose.
Poseixi subconsciously avoided his gaze: "Qian Daoliu is dead?"
"He's not dead, but I have driven the Elder Hall under his leadership out of the Spirit Hall," Qin Jian said casually.
"Driven out of the Spirit Hall?!"
Someone among the Title Douluo below exclaimed, and from the sound, it was that Mermaid Princess again.
It was normal for them to be shocked; after all, Qian Daoliu was a Limit Douluo of the same level as Poseixi, and to be driven out of his own foundation was truly horrifying.
"So that's how it is," Poseixi was very calm: "Since the Spirit Hall that attacked Sea God Island back then has nothing to do with the Spirit Hall under your leadership, then the old grudges should not continue to be counted against you."
Hearing this, the corners of Hailong Douluo and the others' mouths twitched, and they could only accept the fact that they had been beaten up for nothing.
"But, High Priest, he also took in Xiaobai," Hainv Douluo was still somewhat indignant: "Xiaobai is our Guardian Divine Beast!"
"Took in Xiaobai?"
Poseixi pondered for a moment: "Xiaobai has the freedom to choose her own destination, and she also has a cooperative relationship with our Sea God Island; we have no standing to make demands of her."
Hainv Douluo: "..."
Even Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu were surprised again: "She is a Limit Douluo, is she really this easy to talk to?"
"Don't you dare say the High Priest has taken a fancy to the Master just like that, I would go crazy!" Xiaobai's skin twitched.
"It's only a matter of time," Ning Rongrong patted Xiaobai on the shoulder: "You have to know, I have never seen Brother Jian fail to get what he wanted; it has always been others who fail to get what they want from him."
"I suspect you are implying something about me," Xiaobai said expressionlessly.
Ning Rongrong giggled: "You can remove the words 'I suspect'."
Xiaobai: "..."
"Setting aside your identity in the Spirit Hall and the matter of subduing Xiaobai, shouldn't you tell me... what your name is?"
Poseixi raised her eyes.
She swept across Qin Jian's chin, lips, and nose bridge, and finally, for the first time, took a careful look at the face that had long been branded deep in her memory.
A face with sharp, well-defined features and handsome looks without a single flaw.
He really is a rare and beautiful man in this world.
Still, it feels a bit strange...
Am I actually older than him, or younger than him?
If Bibi Dong were here, she would definitely tell her without hesitation: "To you, it's that you are older than him; to me, it's that I am younger than him."
Just think whatever is advantageous to yourself, that's all...
"Qin Jian, the Qin of Qin Jian, the Jian of Qin Jian," Qin Jian said with a smile.
Poseixi: "..."
"With your status and strength, it seems you don't need to participate in the Assessment of my Sea God Island to improve yourself, and I imagine you wouldn't be willing to join Sea God Island either..."
She looked at Qin Jian, then glanced at Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu: "Could it be that you are here for these two young girls?"
Just as Qin Jian could not guess that she had been waiting for him for decades, she could not guess that Qin Jian's purpose in coming was her, and that Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu were just brought along to improve their strength.
"Yes, we obtained an Artifact, and it guided us here to gain power," Qin Jian said.
"You?" Poseixi's eyes brightened quietly: "Are you saying you also want to participate in the Assessment?"
The subtext was that after participating in the Assessment, one would have to stay on Sea God Island.
And even if one didn't stay, passing the Assessment would take quite a long time...
"Let's try it," Qin Jian naturally couldn't see Poseixi's little surprise: "Although I don't think I need it, that thing's recognition of a master was indeed directed at the three of us."
"Very well," Poseixi immediately turned her head and said to Haima Douluo, "Since you have come to the Sea Horse Sacred Pillar, then you shall accept the Sea God's trials here. Haima, help them perform the Sea Sacred Pillar examination."
"Yes, High Priest," Haima Douluo said respectfully.
He walked slowly to the front of the Sea Horse Sacred Pillar, faced the sacred pillar, and a look of devotion appeared in his eyes: "Please, one person step forward."
Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu both looked at Qin Jian.
"What well-behaved little girls," Poseixi smiled slightly.
Qin Jian shook his head and tucked his hands into his sleeves: "That is because the High Priest hasn't seen their palace intrigue, catfighting, Asura Field battles; otherwise, you would certainly have your eyes opened."
Poseixi: "???"
"Xiao Wu, you try first."
Qin Jian landed beside Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu.
Xiao Wu nodded prettily and walked up obediently, arriving before the Sea Horse Sacred Pillar: "Little Pillar, I want to be with my brother forever. Can you grant my wish?"
Everyone: "..."
