Starting from Douluo to Capture Goddesses

"Is Tang San really that kind of person?"

Poseissi was very disappointed, and when she heard that Tang San threatened Lorelai, she became completely disillusioned with him.

Even if what Tang San said was true, even if Xu Ran really killed Tang Chen, Tang San's act of threatening Lorelai couldn't be considered just. Such behavior had thoroughly clarified Tang San's character for her.

"High Priest." Seeing Poseissi, Lorelai gave a respectful salute.

There was a hint of pity and distress in her eyes.

She knew that Poseissi's admiration and reverence for the Sea God were much firmer than hers.

Poseissi was an unwavering believer in the Sea God.

Year after year, Poseissi had guarded Sea God's Island and never wavered, letting even the best years of her youth as a girl pass by.

But what had Poseissi gained in the end?

She became the High Priest, selflessly devoted, but the Sea God was so nauseating.

"Mhm." Poseissi nodded her head and looked up at the sky, focusing on the major battle taking place. That kind of battle made even the heavens and the earth lose their luster, and space itself trembled.

Such power was far beyond the reach of a Titled Douluo.

And yet Xu Ran, a Soul Douluo, managed to possess such supreme combat strength.

To this day, she couldn't understand how Xu Ran did it; perhaps there really were some exceptional geniuses in this world that could astound the entire world.

Xu Ran's talent was indeed unmatched in all history.

Perhaps in the future, there would never be another freak like Xu Ran.

"High Priest, do you not blame me? Tang San is the Sea God's Heir, but I…" Lorelai looked at Poseissi and sighed softly. In the past, even if she yearned for freedom, she still stood firm. The Sea God was powerful, and as one of the ocean's people, she considered herself a child of the Sea God. Serving the Sea God was her honor.

But now...

Ever since she learned the truth.

The image of the Sea God in her heart had collapsed.

Moreover, Xu Ran once said, what's the use in believing in others? Only oneself can save and change oneself.

If one day danger arrived, could the god she worshiped help her? Impossible. So what was the point?

Moreover, Xu Ran called Sea God's Island a prison from which one could only enter, and never leave.

Previously she couldn't understand, but after being enlightened by Xu Ran, she realized that maybe things were as Xu Ran said, they were actually the pitiful ones who were imprisoned.

They were expected to stay their entire lives on the tiny Sea God's Island, yet they still had to respect and worship the one who kept them there. Wasn't that laughable?

"This was your decision, you did nothing wrong."

Poseissi opened her mouth as if to say something, but in the end she just sighed.

Tang San was the chosen Inheritor of the Sea God, and anyone with clear eyes knew that Tang San was the Rakshasa God who had passed the Sea God's Nine Quests. This meant that Tang San would inevitably become the Sea God.

Lorelai defied the will of the future Sea God, and was even hostile to the future Sea God, which was a grave mistake on Sea God's Island where the Sea God was worshiped, and needed to be severely punished. If it was serious, she might even be put to death.

But did Lorelai do wrong?

If Poseissi were in Lorelai's shoes, she might not agree either. She would rather die than betray her own body.

What was the point of living such a humiliating life?

Poseissi felt somewhat at a loss; she didn't understand why one day she would also start to doubt her faith.

"Xu Ran once said, there are no saints in this world; even gods make many mistakes. If what the strong do is right, and what the weak do is wrong, then what a twisted world this would become?" said Lorelai.

Her faith was in the mysterious and boundless power of the ocean, not the character of the Sea God.

If the Sea God truly cared for the children of the sea, she could worship and believe in him.

If the Sea God was despicable and shameless, she would turn her back on him.

As Poseissi listened to Lorelai's words, her heart trembled.

"What do I believe in?"

Suddenly, Poseissi felt somewhat lost.

Was her faith in the Sea God? Was it the great power of the Sea God she believed in, or was it something else about the Sea God?

Would the Sea God never do anything wrong? If the Sea God erred, would she still continue to believe in him, willing to sacrifice everything for him?

Poseissi fell silent.

For the first time, her faith was shaking.

Especially after witnessing the character of Tang San before.

If she believed in and respected the Sea God, should she punish Lorelai severely? But Tang San was so shameless, threatening Lorelai with the lives of the Merfolk Clan; such behavior was wrong, how could she possibly abet the villain?

Let alone Tang San, even if the Sea God did such a thing, she would not agree with it.

In an instant, Poseissi had a revelation.

"But all this was done by Tang San, not by the Sea God. The Sea God would not do such a thing," Poseissi said. At this moment, she did not know her standing in the heart of the Sea God, or else she would have regretted saying such words.

The Sea God, even more despicable than Tang San.

Poseissi looked up at the sky, her mission was to aid the Inheritor to ascend to Sea God.

In the future, she might even sacrifice her life for this cause.

Even if Tang San was a villain, she would do the same.

The Sea God had shown her favor.

Her name, her Sea God Spirit, her Sea God's Eighth Trial... they were all grace from the Sea God.

The Sea God was named Poseidon, and she, Poseissi. This was surely no coincidence.

Back then, when the Sea God met Poseissi, he gave her the Sea God's Eighth Trial, and even his own Martial Soul. This was enough to prove how lustful the Sea God was for Poseissi's body. The Sea God Spirit, the top-level Eighth Trial... the Sea God wanted his Poseissi to be perfect, only then could he satisfy his perverted desires.

How beautiful was Poseissi back then?

Qian Dao Liu and Tang Chen, two peerless geniuses, both destined to reach Title Douluo of the 99th Rank, had fallen for Poseissi at first sight soon after arriving on Sea God's Island, both of them fell in love with her.

Love at first sight was enough to illustrate the extent of Poseissi's beauty.

That two peerless geniuses would fall for the same woman at the same time proved how breathtaking Poseissi was.

A woman, if not reaching the ultimate peak of beauty, unparalleled and stunning, could not have achieved this.

Neither Tang Chen nor Qian Dao Liu were fools; both came from top-tier families and had seen countless beautiful women, yet both ended up head over heels for Poseissi.

This showed that even the Sea God having an ulterior motive for Poseissi was understandable.

Even now, Poseissi, though of a certain age, still possessed a mature charm.

That kind of mature beauty, refined by the trials of time, was something many women did not possess.

Poseissi was unaware that the Sea God's favor was because of his lust for her body, that he wanted to imprison her forever in the Divine Realm for his pleasure, to become his plaything alone.

Seeing Poseissi's devotion to the Sea God, Lorelai couldn't help but want to tell her the truth, but eventually held back. Xu Ran had warned her, not to reveal it yet.
