Bo Saixi's voice arrived before her person. As the Great Priest of Sea God Island who possessed the Sea God martial soul, her perception on the ocean was extremely powerful; she could even transmit messages remotely through moisture in the air.
The Sea Princess had fallen. Bo Saixi wanted to stop it, but she was one step too late.
The entire ice sea force had been annihilated. The Sea Princess had been slaughtered by the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King and Ning Rongrong.
That not-particularly-large body had even been swallowed in one bite by the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King.
Both Ning Rongrong and the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King could hear the extreme fury in Bo Saixi's voice.
But would they care?
"They're here. What now?" The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King did not turn human; half his body floated on the surface.
Ning Rongrong stood on his back at this moment and answered calmly:
"So what if they're here? The deed is done. Even if it were the Sea God Poseidon himself, what could he do?"
"I mean, how are you planning to deal with them?" The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King felt helpless. How could this human sometimes be so dense!
With Bo Saixi roaring like a lioness from the east, she definitely planned to skin him alive.
This couldn't end peacefully anymore!
Truthfully, the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King did want to finish both of them off here, but he knew his own strength—against two opponents with divine weapons, he had no chance. That's why he asked Ning Rongrong's plan.
"Those two have nothing to do with you. This is friction between our Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Clan and them."
"Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, you don't need to get involved."
"You mean…"
"This is a human matter. If you participate, they might use it as leverage against me."
"I see." The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's voice was metallic and slightly mocking. "You humans really are hypocritical!"
Having understood Ning Rongrong's meaning, he did not linger.
He had no desire to stay here anyway.
The sea surged with massive waves that gradually submerged his hundreds-of-meters-long body.
Ning Rongrong lightly leaped up, avoiding the wild waves caused by his dive.
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's black silhouette slowly faded into the depths.
The endless sea gradually returned to calm.
If one ignored the blood-dyed, toxin-soaked water, the floating severed limbs and corpses, everything seemed peaceful and quiet.
Soon after, Bo Saixi and Tang Chen arrived.
Completely ignoring Bo Saixi's face black as the bottom of a pot, Ning Rongrong said calmly:
"You're one step too late. The threat to Vast Sea City has been eliminated."
"You…" Bo Saixi stared at Ning Rongrong and took a deep breath. "Ning Rongrong, you actually colluded with the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King."
"Colluded?" Ning Rongrong laughed. "Funny coming from you. I could say you colluded with sea soul beasts—after all, the Devil Soul Great White Sharks really do live around your Sea God Island."
"And they're supposedly followers of the Sea God?"
"You're twisting words!" Bo Saixi trembled with rage.
"Ning Rongrong, if you have no relation to the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, why would he appear in these waters?"
"At most, I made a deal with him." Ning Rongrong spread her hands casually. "Your great-grandson Tang San has a soul beast girlfriend. I made a transaction with the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King to remove the threat to Vast Sea City—how is that not righteous?"
"I did it for Vast Sea City!"
"Is there something wrong with that?" Ning Rongrong smiled lightly. "My personal charm moved the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, so he came to help me."
"So all these sea soul beasts were killed by you?" Bo Saixi's voice shook with anger.
Hundreds of thousands of powerful sea soul beasts—most of them followers of the Sea God.
Especially the Sea Princess—20,000 years ago, before Lord Sea God ascended, he had personally subdued her clan.
The Sea Demon Woman of the Seven Sacred Pillars who recently fell was also from the Sea Princess's clan.
One could say the ice sea clan was Sea God Island's true external force.
"I killed them. And?" Ning Rongrong said coldly. "Bo Saixi, why are you so angry? Could it be that this Sea Princess of the ice sea is connected to your Sea God Island?"
"Or perhaps—the attack on Vast Sea City was orchestrated by your Sea God Island?"
"You—don't sling mud!" Bo Saixi's face darkened. "Is the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Clan planning to betray humanity and side with soul beasts?"
"The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King is an extremely evil soul beast…"
"Pfft—"
Ning Rongrong burst out laughing. "Evil? I could say the Tang Chen beside you is evil too!"
"The King of Slaughter isn't exactly a saint!"
Suddenly called out, Tang Chen fell silent.
His possession by the Blood Red Nine-Headed Bat King and the things in the Slaughter City—anyone knew that by normal Douluo Continent morals, he was absolute evil.
"Bo Saixi, don't try to play games with me." Ning Rongrong's voice grew cold.
"How the ice sea forces got here, why they attacked Vast Sea City—do you think our Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Clan doesn't know?"
"And you, Lord Tang Chen, participated too, didn't you?"
Ning Rongrong's direct tearing of face left Bo Saixi and Tang Chen silent.
"What, nothing to say?" Ning Rongrong's voice grew colder.
"To be reasonable, our Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Clan has no desire to make enemies right now, but that doesn't mean we're afraid of you."
"Want to bet whether we dare to fight your Sea God Island to the death?"
"We could kill hundreds of thousands of sea soul beasts. How many soul masters does your Sea God Island have for us to slaughter?"
"I, Ning Rongrong, am not like Qian Daoliu—that love-struck fool who lost several Title Douluo on Sea God Island and even his own son, yet still hid like a turtle."
"Many of my elders and clansmen died in the last sea soul beast assault on the city. We even lost a Title Douluo."
"This blood debt must be paid in blood. That's right—I came here for revenge!"
"Ning Rongrong, aren't you afraid you won't leave these waters alive?"
The Sea God Trident condensed in Bo Saixi's hand. She stopped arguing. Since the other side seemed to know the truth, continuing to deny would just be childish.
She was still a Limit Douluo—she had her pride.
Tang Chen beside her sighed lightly. Bloody murderous aura gathered as the oppressive Asura God Sword appeared in his right hand.
"Won't leave alive?" Ning Rongrong sneered. "I'd like to see who exactly won't be leaving these waters."
As she spoke, flowing light rapidly gathered on her left hand.
The Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda quietly hovered above her palm.
Soul rings emerged one after another.
Even Bo Saixi and Tang Chen felt dizzy seeing those soul ring colors again.
Black, black, black, black, black, black, brilliant gold, deep red, deep red.
