Li Ya looked at the Sea Woman and explained, "Mother was summoned by the Lord and has come to Sea God Island to await the Lord's arrival."
The Sea Woman said with a surprised Face, "The Lord?"
"Gu Yuena?"
"Hmm?"
Li Ya's expression flickered with surprise, "You know the Lord?"
Then, Li Ya's expression turned serious again as she said, "You must not address the Lord directly by name."
Sea Woman Douluo curled her lips and replied in a low voice, "She is your Lord; I only have half a Soul Beast Bloodline."
Li Ya said solemnly, "Even if you only had a tiny fraction of Soul Beast Bloodline, you still cannot be disrespectful to the Lord."
"I came to find you to tell you that tomorrow, the Lord will arrive on Sea God Island along with the people from the Spirit Hall. Remember, you must absolutely not resist or go against the Lord's wishes."
Sea Woman Douluo's Face looked troubled. Suddenly, she thought of something and said, "Bibi Dong of the Spirit Hall, the love-brain master and disciple?"
Huh?
Without even thinking, Li Ya naturally responded with the secret code.
"Hu Liena of the Spirit Hall, the love-brain master and disciple."
Bibi Dong: Is this ever going to end?
The Sea Woman said in surprise, "So, Little Princess, you actually have a diary instance too!"
Li Ya was equally surprised and said, "Sea Woman, I didn't expect you to have a diary instance. Now I can rest easy."
"You know of Liam's power and the Lord's identity and origins, so you must not resist tomorrow, otherwise, no one will be able to save you."
"Li Ya."
Sea Woman Douluo stepped forward and hugged Li Ya tightly, tears of grievance streaming down her Face. "I know, but High Priestess Bo Saixi is just too stubborn."
"I told her long ago that we couldn't save Tang San, and I even suggested killing Tang San directly, but she wouldn't listen to me. She insisted on being loyal to the Sea God until death."
Li Ya looked like a young girl and wasn't even as tall as Sea Woman Douluo, but in reality, Li Ya was a hundred-thousand-year Soul Beast and much older than Sea Woman Douluo.
"There, there."
Li Ya patted the Sea Woman's shoulder and said, "Since you understand everything, just be obedient. We will explain everything to the Lord when the time comes."
"I hope Liam will forgive your actions for the sake of the Lord's Face."
Hearing this, Sea Woman Douluo wiped her tears and asked, "What if Liam refuses to forgive me?"
Li Ya said with a serious expression, "Then we will promise him that we'll find Tang San and kill him."
Sea Woman Douluo nodded and muttered, "It's all the High Priestess's fault. I advised her back then to go to Spirit City to find Liam and ignore whatever orders the Sea God gave, but she wouldn't listen."
"If we had gone straight to Spirit City to find Liam back then, not only would we not be in this predicament, but we could also stay by Liam's side and get rewards. How wonderful that would have been!"
Li Ya shook her head and said helplessly, "It couldn't be helped. Bo Saixi is the High Priestess of Sea God Island; she is a loyal believer of the Sea God."
"If the Lord ordered us to do so, we would also obey the Lord's commands. I can understand her."
"Pfft!"
The Sea Woman said defiantly, "I don't believe it. If the Lord ordered you to save Tang San and oppose Liam, would you really obey?"
Li Ya said somewhat helplessly, "What else could I do?"
Sea Woman Douluo was also speechless.
"Couldn't we just kill Tang San and be done with it?"
Strictly speaking.
Sea Woman Douluo was neither fully human nor fully mermaid; she only had half of each Bloodline. Thus, her mermaid faith was not pure, and she was quite rebellious.
Sea God Temple.
Bo Saixi's heart was also heavy. She looked at the statue of the Sea God before her and called out, "Lord Sea God."
The statue emitted a golden light.
Bo Saixi immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Good! Lord Sea God, it's good that you are here. I was afraid that after I lured Liam here, you wouldn't be around to see it!
Lord Sea God, you must keep your eyes open tomorrow.
Bo Saixi was very loyal. The reason she acted this way was to make the Sea God give up on Tang San.
Of course, she could have chosen to do as the Sea Woman said and kill Tang San directly, but Bo Saixi knew she couldn't do it.
If Tang San was the Sea God's successor, she couldn't bring herself to kill him. Furthermore, she, Bo Saixi, could not disobey orders.
All in all.
Bo Saixi's ultimate goal was to prevent the Sea God from becoming Liam's enemy, because she felt that if the Sea God opposed Liam, he might one day be killed by him.
She, Bo Saixi, was saving the Sea God Poseidon.
That night, no one on Sea God Island slept well; everyone's nerves were taut.
With the Spirit Hall mobilizing so many people and ships to attack Sea God Island, how could the island not know?
Outside the palace, Sea Dragon Douluo, Sea Spear Douluo, Sea Illusion Douluo, Sea Horse Douluo, Sea Ghost Douluo, and Sea Star Douluo had been waiting for Bo Saixi to come out and ask her for a insight.
However, Bo Saixi did not come out all night. She didn't give them any explanation or prepare any insight, as if nothing was happening.
The next day.
Liam woke up quite early, mainly because he hadn't spent too long Cultivating with Bibi Dong and the others, as they were arriving at Sea God Island today.
On the deck at the bow of the ship.
Liam sat on a lounge chair, looking toward Sea God Island, and began writing in his Diary.
[Today is another day full of Lively Energy. One should Face every day with happiness; as the saying goes, a smile brings good luck.]
[We're almost at Sea God Island. This is the Spirit Hall's second attempt at conquest. Once before, the Spirit Hall sent two thousand Soul Masters to incorporate Sea God Island, but none of them ever returned.]
[Speaking of Sea God Island, its nature is actually similar to the Spirit Hall. Of course, not all Soul Masters on land worship the Angel God, whereas the Soul Masters on Sea God Island are all loyal believers of the Sea God.]
[Sea God Island has a total of Seven Sacred Pillars and seven cities. Each city has about a thousand people, all of whom are believers of the Sea God.]
[There is a mountain on Sea God Island called Sea God Mountain. Below it is a long flight of stairs used for trials. In addition, there is a palace—the Sea God Temple.]
[To the outside world, Sea God Island is mysterious, but it's actually not that special. It's considered mysterious because the Sea Spirit Masters living there must undergo a trial when they turn eighteen, and the same applies to outsiders.]
[Those who pass the trial can stay on Sea God Island to serve the Sea God. Otherwise, they will be expelled. If the trial is too difficult, they might even die during it.]
[Whether they are natives of Sea God Island or outsiders, anyone who passes the trial is forbidden from leaving the island for the rest of their lives, or else they will Face the Sea God's wrath.]
[Therefore, under this series of rules, Sea God Island appears mysterious, especially since it's in the middle of the ocean. But really, Sea God Island isn't that mysterious.]
[Next, let's see what today's Diary entry should be about!]
[Meng Yiran —]
This...
Bibi Dong, Ling Yuan, and the others felt a bit helpless after seeing the Diary entry.
We were full of curiosity about Sea God Island, coming here with a mood for adventure and exploration.
Now, after reading your Diary, it feels like the mysterious veil of Sea God Island has been stripped away, leaving it looking quite ordinary.
How dull!
