Star Dou Empire's diplomat

When he returned to the villa, Ye Tian found that many tents had been pitched beside it.

Not only that, but a dense group of soldiers was also visible, guarding the surroundings of the villa.

The flags they held bore the emblems of both the Heaven Dou and Star Luo empires, intertwined with each other.

Seeing this scene, Ye Tian understood.

It was likely that people from the Star Luo Empire had arrived.

"I didn't expect your villa to be quite grand."

Riding beside Ye Tian, the Sea Witch adjusted her glasses, her eyes twinkling.

"It's just a bit too remote. With your abilities, you could have built the villa in East Sea City."

Who would know of a villa built in the countryside?

Ye Tian smiled slightly:

"I've always preferred to stay away from the hustle and bustle."

"Then you could inherit a divine position. As everyone knows, deities are the most secluded."

The Sea Witch's eyes curved into crescents.

"So, Bo Saixi sent you to brainwash me?" Ye Tian glanced at the Sea Witch, unamused.

"Little brother, that's exactly what Her Majesty Bo Saixi meant."

The Sea Witch blinked and chuckled slyly.

"Do you know what the condition for my divinity is?"

Ye Tian's expression suddenly became serious.

He needed to expel the inheritance mark from his body.

Given the Sea Witch's intelligence, she might guess this.

To avoid too much trouble during this process, he needed to persuade the Sea Witch to be on his side.

It was evident that the Sea Witch held great respect for Poseidon.

This could be exploited by him.

Hearing Ye Tian's question, the Sea Witch looked somewhat skeptical, twirling her hair with her finger, questioning:

"Isn't it through passing the Nine Tests of Poseidon?"

"Indeed, that's the case." Ye Tian's expression was serene: "But that's just the foundation."

He continued to explain: "The power of a divine position is too vast."

"Accepting it directly would undoubtedly lead to my explosion and death."

"Therefore, in between, there needs to be a buffer to temporarily bear the power of the divine position for me."

Upon hearing this, the Sea Witch's smile gradually stiffened, and she asked with a hint of wariness:

"Is this buffer, Lord Bo Saixi?"

Her breathing suddenly became heavy, staring at Ye Tian incredulously.

Although she appeared incredulous, her heart was already convinced by Ye Tian's words.

Lord Bo Saixi, a level ninety-nine Limit Douluo and the spokesperson of the Sea God on earth, was the most likely candidate to be this buffer.

"What would happen to the buffer?" she asked cautiously.

"Death." Ye Tian was straightforward, uttering just two words.

"Lord Bo Saixi will die!"

It was Xiao Bai who spoke.

Her expression was even more shocked than the Sea Witch's.

Hearing Ye Tian's words, she spat out the snack she was sneaking.

Bo Saixi was the most powerful guardian of the Demon Soul Great White Shark clan!

Thanks to her brilliance, the clan had expanded significantly over the past century!

Bo Saixi was the greatest benefactor in her heart.

The thought of her death being part of the cost for Ye Tian's divinity was unacceptable to her.

Hearing this, the Sea Witch's complexion wasn't much better.

However, she was more experienced and had a stronger mental capacity than Xiao Bai.

But this didn't mean she could accept the fact that Bo Saixi would die.

Bo Saixi had overseen the growth of the Seven Sacred Pillars.

To her, Poseidon was both a teacher and a friend.

For a moment, the Sea Witch felt as if she couldn't breathe.

She gasped for air, asking Ye Tian: "Does Lord Bo Saixi... know about this?"

"She knows." Ye Tian calmly replied.

Then, he sighed:

"This is also one of the reasons I don't want to become a god. I don't want to achieve power at the expense of someone else's life."

Of course, that was a lie.

He simply didn't want to become the Sea God, nothing more, without such lofty morals.

But the Sea Witch believed him entirely, showing a pale smile:

"I never thought, Ye Tian, you could resist the temptation of absolute power."

"If it were me, I might fall into the abyss of desire."

"Do you really not want to become a god?"

Xiao Bai asked incredulously.

She really didn't expect that Ye Tian wouldn't cherish the god's throne in front of him.

Ye Tian thought to say something grandiose.

Then, thinking better of it.

Speaking to Xiao Bai would be like playing the lute to a cow.

He ended the conversation with a simple "Hmm."

"Ye Tian, hurry down from the horse, my father is waiting for you inside."

At the villa's entrance, Ning Rongrong, dressed in a blue gown, waved at Ye Tian.

As she spoke, she curiously examined the two women beside Ye Tian.

Both were pretty, but the one with distinct gray and white hair was clearly a foreigner.

Ning Rongrong's gaze shifted to the Sea Witch, curiously asking: "This must be your new wife, right?"

"Oh ho, little sister, you have good taste."

The Sea Witch laughed lightly, glancing at Ye Tian and blinking.

"Who's your little sister." Ning Rongrong frowned, turning and walking into the villa without looking back.

Leaving the Sea Witch somewhat disordered.

Watching Ning Rongrong's back, the Sea Witch inquired: "Who's that?"

Ye Tian expressed indifferently: "The little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, don't mind her, let's go in."

The three dismounted and Ye Tian led the way into the living room, with the Sea Witch silently following behind.

Upon entering, Ye Tian felt the living room's atmosphere was somewhat strange.

The room was crowded, yet utterly silent.

He saw Qian Renxue, with her arm in a cast, sitting on the sofa, staring at a young man with flowing golden hair across from her.

To her left was 'Teacher' Ning Fengzhi.

And to her right, a broadly built elderly man with gray and white hair, dressed in splendid attire.

It was clear.

This elderly man was likely the Prince of the Heaven Dou Empire, Xue Xing.

Ye Tian's entrance broke the eerie silence of the living room.

Numerous eyes turned towards Ye Tian and his companions.

Ye Tian remained composed; after all, he was the owner of the villa, and everyone present was a guest.

The Sea Witch smiled slightly, enjoying the commotion.

Xiao Bai's gaze wasn't on the crowd; she clung to the Sea Witch's back, trying to minimize her presence.

Standing behind the sofa, Ning Rongrong spoke to Ning Fengzhi indifferently: "Father, Ye Tian has brought them."

"Are you Ye Tian?"

The one who spoke was a robust man sitting opposite Ning Fengzhi.

Ning Rongrong pointed to the man, introducing: "This is the current Sect Master of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, Yu Yuanzhen."

Ye Tian smiled and walked to Yu Yuanzhen's opposite side, saying as he moved:

"Correct, I am."

Seeing Ye Tian not performing any formalities, Yu Yuanzhen angrily slammed his sleeve: "The younger generation today really lacks manners."

"Sorry, I always treat people from enemy nations this way."

Ye Tian's expression remained serene.
