Little White and Bai Xiuxiu have all gone to instruct their clan.
The situation in Haiyang is now stable. Lan Nuer and Blue Buddha Child, the only two Deep Sea Demonic Whales left, are also following Lord Xu Ran, and the Evil Killer Whale Clan has been exterminated. The remaining species can no longer pose a threat to them.
"High Priest."
The Sea Dragon Douluo and the other six Pillar Douluo, except Lorelai, saluted Poseissi.
"From now on, you don't need to call me High Priest anymore, I'm no longer the High Priest of Sea God's Island. In a few days, I will leave this place with Lord Xu Ran and head to the Continent," Poseissi said, her expression complex as she looked at her familiar subordinates.
She had decided to say goodbye to her past life.
In the future, she only wanted to live for Lord Xu Ran, to bear his children, to be a virtuous wife.
"But..."
The expressions of the Sea Dragon Douluo and the others were complicated.
"We no longer want to continue staying on Sea God's Island either. The Sea God is dead. Moreover, we no longer have any faith in the Sea God," said the Sea Star Douluo and the others.
They were Titled Douluo, Soul Masters of the sea, gathering here because of their belief in the Sea God.
Now that they knew of the Sea God's shamelessness, they were greatly disappointed.
Even the Sea God's Trident had rebelled. Lord Xu Ran had received the acknowledgement of the Sea God's Trident, showing that Lord Xu Ran was the one worthy of their faith. A person who could be acknowledged by the Sea God's Trident couldn't possibly be of poor character.
"It's not just us; Sea God's Island is now falling apart. Perhaps soon, all the soul masters on Sea God's Island will leave. There are already many who have left, and we haven't tried to stop them," another Pillar Guardian said.
The rules of Sea God's Island have been broken.
In the past, the rules were upheld to maintain the dignity of the Sea God. Now that the Sea God's dignity is lost, those rules are meaningless.
Even those who haven't left Sea God's Island are now panicking.
They don't leave because they were born on Sea God's Island and don't know where else to go after leaving it.
"Sigh."
Poseissi let out a sigh.
Sea God's Island had gathered almost all the powerful sea soul masters, but she never expected it would come to such a pass. Sea God's Island was once the hegemon of this oceanic domain, with many powerful sea tribes looking up to it. And now, Sea God's Island had become like loose sand.
However, she would not stay on Sea God's Island.
For the rest of her life, she only wanted to be with Lord Xu Ran.
"High Priest, we didn't mean to have you stay on Sea God's Island. We just wanted... just wanted to follow Lord Xu Ran," said the Sea Dragon Douluo.
Although Lord Xu Ran is not the Sea God, having been acknowledged by the Sea God's Trident, he surpasses the Sea God.
The divinity Lord Xu Ran displayed in the two-against-one battle left a deep impression on them.
Their admiration for Lord Xu Ran even surpasses their previous worship of the Sea God.
"Ah?" Poseissi was stunned.
Lord Xu Ran had killed the Sea God, and she thought they would all resist him. But recalling her and Lorelai's disgust toward the Sea God, they understood. The prestige of the Sea God, killed by Lord Xu Ran, was completely lost.
"Shall I ask Lord Xu Ran?" Poseissi's eyes lit up. After all, Sea God's Island was her life's work, and if she could secure a good future for these sea soul masters, it would be a good thing.
The most important thing was that with so many powerful sea soul masters acting independently, there could be numerous pirates and other malicious forces emerging in this area.
"Lord Xu Ran, you're here? They said they want to follow you," Poseissi ran up to Xu Ran with quick steps, affectionately holding his arm, and acting coquettishly like a little girl.
"My lord."
The six Pillar Guardians knelt on one knee, worshippingly looking at Xu Ran, their eyes filled with fervent adoration.
"You may rise," Xu Ran said lightly waving his hand to help them up.
The strength of Sea God's Island is still quite impressive, being the next most formidable force after Martial Soul Hall.
With thousands of Soul Masters and six Holy Pillar Guardians...
If such forces were not subdued, scattered around, they could become a hazard.
Thousands of sea soul beasts wandering everywhere, who knows if they might turn into pirates or something of the sort.
This place is far from the emperor's reach, and the laws and regulations of The Empire do not apply here.
"How many people have left?" Xu Ran asked.
"Less than one-tenth. Most of us are people of Sea God's Island, grown up here since we were little and have become accustomed to the life on Sea God's Island, so they have not left. Most importantly... they are waiting for you, Lord Xu Ran," Sea Dragon Douluo spoke up.
Among the Pillar Douluo, his strength was the strongest, a Titled Douluo second only to Poseissi.
"Would you be willing to join my forces?" Xu Ran asked with a smile.
Gathering such a group of powerful individuals under one's wing was not a bad thing.
"We are willing to lay down our lives and spread our brains for Lord," the excited Holy Pillar Guardians joyously replied.
"You should go and stabilize the others on Sea God's Island. Let's not have anyone else leave; it would cause chaos."
"My force is named Xu Sect. From now on, you are the Elders of Xu Sect. For the time being, stay on Sea God's Island. After I go to land, other people from Xu Sect will come to contact you," Xu Ran contemplated for a moment and handed the Xu Sect Token to Seahorse Douluo.
"A department will be carved out of Xu Sect, which will be overseen by Poseissi. You will still be following her orders then."
Xu Sect was the sect he established during his time at Shrek Academy, and after its establishment, he took a hands-off approach.
But with his reputation on the Continent, Xu Sect has now attracted a large number of talents to join, and their potential for the future is not to be underestimated.
Now with the addition of so many powerful individuals from Sea God's Island, Xu Sect's top fighting strength is not weaker than that of other sects.
If it were announced to the world, the current Xu Ran would probably be second only to Martial Soul Hall, even stronger than top sects like Seven Treasures Glaze Sect.
However, that's without counting Xu Ran himself. Otherwise, Xu Ran alone could annihilate all forces on Soul Land.
"Xu Ran, you are truly kind," Poseissi said excitedly, planting a kiss on Xu Ran's cheek. She had some reluctance in parting with the people of Sea God's Island. Now, the people of Sea God's Island were still under her management.
It was only a change from being the Sea God's subjects to being subordinates of Xu Ran, that's all.
Previously, she served the Sea God, and naturally, she was not willing to do so anymore.
But now, serving her own man, she felt much more willing in her heart.
She was worried before that she would become a vase with nothing to do once she reached the land and would only compete for favor with the other ladies intimate with Xu Ran. But now it seems she worried too much.
"Greetings, Sect Leader," the Holy Pillar Guardians said ecstatically, kneeling on the ground and saluting Xu Ran.
They also did not wish for a new leader to be sent from above. Having the High Priest continue leading them was the best possible outcome for them.
The next day, Xu Ran and the ladies went to Pearl Island together.
The great battle had ended a day ago.
Xiaowu and Purple Pearl were a bit nervous, always looking out to the sea, hoping to see if Xu Ran had returned.
That battle was felt by all the sea creatures in the surrounding waters. However, at this moment, they still did not know who won or lost.
