Lin Xiao suddenly felt a bit of sympathy for Tang Chen.
More despairing than death itself was the utter disappointment of the person one cared about most.
The former merely destroyed the body, while the latter completely reduced the soul to ashes.
Bo Saixi's sigh of disappointment and her gaze.
Were a torture that could force Tang Chen to seek death himself.
"Bo Saixi... it's been a long time."
Tang Chen's lips trembled slightly.
A ripple of emotion flickered in Bo Saixi's eyes as she fell into recollection.
But she didn't say a word.
As if waiting for Tang Chen's last words before death.
At this moment.
A scarlet glint flashed in Tang Chen's pupils.
"Release me, Bo Saixi, have you forgotten my unwavering devotion to you?"
"Do you know that it was to make you accept my pursuit that I was possessed by this damned thing and ended up like this!"
"Everything I did was for you!"
"You're the one who ruined me!!!"
Bo Saixi was utterly disappointed.
Lin Xiao delivered the finishing blow with precision:
"You wanted to become a God yourself, what does that have to do with the High Priest? The High Priest gave you hints back then!"
"Besides, although the Blood Red Nine-Headed Bat King can possess someone, as a Limit Douluo-level expert, if you hadn't already been eroded by slaughter and desire, how could a mere variant with weak combat power possess you!"
"Always look for your own faults in everything!"
Lin Xiao turned around directly to report.
"High Priest, when this Tang Chen was the Slaughter King, think of how much evil karma he created. The sins of the entire Slaughter City are connected to him. Furthermore, he was licentious and unrestrained, indulging in pools of blood and flesh!"
"When the possession began, he still had his self-awareness. Why didn't he end himself then, or come find you? He's absolutely not worthy of sympathy!"
Tang Chen was so angry his nose was about to fall off.
Most hateful of all, Bo Saixi actually nodded!
Lin Xiao completely ignored Tang Chen's ravenous gaze.
He said indignantly:
"High Priest, you did nothing wrong. It was Tang Chen who failed you, and he still has the nerve to say that his current predicament is all because of you, all because of you."
"Even as an outsider, I'm angered by this. High Priest, you have such a good temper, just as kind and beautiful as your appearance. You didn't even get angry about this..."
Bo Saixi: "..."
She wasn't angry initially.
Her heart was filled more with disappointment and sorrow.
But after hearing Lin Xiao's subtly manipulative words, why did she suddenly feel a bit angry?
Also, why did that fellow Qian Daoliu blab about everything!
A slight ripple stirred in Bo Saixi's clear blue eyes, as vast as the sea. She suddenly reached out towards Lin Xiao, and a look of astonishment appeared on her eternally serene and breathtakingly beautiful face, like that of a goddess.
A tempestuous wave surged in her heart!
Bone age 16, Soul Saint realm, flawless physique, and Soul Power purity comparable to a Titled Douluo!
What kind of monster was this?
Compared to this youth, Tang Chen, Qian Daoliu, and Bo Saixi themselves, who had once dominated their era, were merely frogs in a well, looking at the sky from the bottom of a well!
Bo Saixi was shocked for a long time, So much so that she even forgot the purpose of her appearance.
It wasn't until Lin Xiao spoke softly:
"High Priest..."
Only then did Bo Saixi realize that she had been holding Lin Xiao's hand for a long time.
She let go, but still couldn't regain her senses for a long time.
Qian Daoliu was right. Bo Saixi was proud; she was a proud daughter of heaven. Therefore, back then, only Qian Daoliu and Tang Chen, who were also proud sons of heaven, were worthy of her.
Her eventual choice of Tang Chen might have been related to Tang Chen appearing stronger than Qian Daoliu, and having a more arrogant, unconventional personality.
However.
Bo Saixi's pride was shattered today.
If she were in Lin Xiao's era, she wouldn't even qualify to carry his shoes!
Tang Chen's voice, filled with anger and jealousy, rang out.
"Bo Saixi! You've never even looked at me with those eyes! This is the first time I've ever seen you lose your composure! Is it because this brat is handsome and I'm ugly now, that you're discarding our past affections?"
Bo Saixi's gaze sharpened, anger already rising within her.
She, Bo Saixi, was the High Priest of Sea God Island, and her age was more than enough to be Lin Xiao's great-grandmother. How dare Tang Chen slander her like this!
How dare he think of her with such filthy thoughts!
Lin Xiao also felt Tang Chen had lost his mind. He had considered adding fuel to the fire with some subtle words, but on second thought, he decided to just watch Tang Chen dig his own grave.
Bo Saixi's voice was icy.
"Tang Chen, I did have feelings for you in the past, but we were never truly together from beginning to end. I am not yours, and you have no right to think of me with your filthy mind!"
"I am the High Priest of Sea God Island, and I have already dedicated everything – my body and soul – to the great Sea God... Everything I have does not belong to me, let alone to you!"
"You are burdened with heavy sins, and today you even attempted to harm the people of my great ocean. If I let you live, I cannot answer to the Sea God, nor can I face all the beings of the ocean!"
Tang Chen's anger subsided, and his reason returned.
He began to feel afraid.
But Bo Saixi raised her scepter, about to strike him down.
Lin Xiao suddenly spoke, "Wait! High Priest!"
Bo Saixi stopped and looked at Lin Xiao with confused, beautiful eyes.
"High Priest, you do have a past with Tang Chen, and I don't want to put you in a difficult position. Please allow me to handle this. This is also a promise I made to the Great Enshrinement of Spirit Hall."
After a moment of consideration, Bo Saixi agreed.
Tang Chen and the Blood Red Nine-Headed Bat King were both suppressed, completely losing their ability to resist.
A wisp of dark fire drifted from Lin Xiao's fingertip.
Tang Chen and the Blood Red Nine-Headed Bat King were both killed, their souls stripped away and absorbed into Lin Xiao along with the Black Sun Purifying Fire.
Blood Red Nine-Headed Bat King soul, +1.
Level 99 Limit Douluo soul, +1.
The Blood Red Nine-Headed Bat King's sonic soul attack was quite peculiar.
It might bring new methods to the soul attacks within the Exile Domain.
Tang Chen's soul was the strongest in the Exile Domain, but unfortunately, it seemed to have been eroded for too long, with even his soul showing some wear.
Without the Blood Red Nine-Headed Bat King, Tang Chen's body rapidly rotted and blackened. Lin Xiao burned it to ashes, but deliberately left the Blood Red Nine-Headed Bat King's corpse.
The physical body of an ancient variant, like rare treasures, was an excellent material.
Bo Saixi watched Tang Chen die.
A sense of melancholy lingered in her heart.
She quietly murmured that from this day forward, she would truly dedicate everything to the Sea God...
And dedicate herself to her faith.
After all this back and forth, Tang Chen, this great trouble, was finally resolved. Lin Xiao just wanted to relax.
He was about to politely bid farewell to Bo Saixi.
But when he looked up, he saw Bo Saixi's face filled with astonishment. Her beautiful eyes were fixed on him, actually showing intense... possessiveness?
Bo Saixi was a proper person.
She wasn't acting on lust; rather, she had just received the Sea God's decree in her mind.
At all costs! She must keep the young man before her on Sea God Island!
She must capture Lin Xiao!
As everyone knows, Bo Saixi was a very devout person
