Douluo: Starting from the Nine-Curved Vine Dragon

Chapter 238 The Throne Ceremony
At the top of Poseidon City, in the meeting hall.

The six sea gods and the seven sacred pillar guards Douluo gathered here.

"Still no news about Seahorse?" Sea Dragon Douluo asked.

Everyone shook their heads.

A few days ago, the high priest of Poseidon, Poseidon, showed up and brought back a young man with a golden trident mark on his forehead.

The young man is named Chen Haitian, and he is the inheritor of the Sea God.

The Seven Sacred Pillar Guardian Douluo remembered that the Sea God's order was to assist the Sea God's descendants in establishing the Sea God Empire and unifying the continent.

In other words, Chen Haitian is the emperor of their Poseidon Empire.

The long-vacant throne suddenly had a real owner. In order to announce this good news to the people of the empire and the entire continent, a grand and complicated emperor's coronation ceremony had to be held.

As loyal believers of the Sea God, the Seven Sacred Pillar Guardians must not be absent from the Emperor's coronation ceremony.

At that time, only four of the seven Pillar Guard Douluo were in Sea God City, and the other three Pillar Guard Douluo were away on business, namely Starfish, Sea Spear, and Seahorse.

After receiving the news, Sea Star Douluo and Sea Spear Douluo returned to Poseidon City the day before yesterday and yesterday respectively. Only Seahorse Douluo not only did not come back, but there has been no news about him for a long time.

Because this kind of thing had not been thought of in advance, the time for the coronation ceremony had already been set and announced to the world.

At this moment, there are less than seven days left until the Emperor of the Sea God Empire ascends the throne.

Seven days may seem like a long time, but in fact it will pass very quickly.

If Seahorse Douluo was dealing with some urgent matter, then everything would be easy, and seven days would be enough for him to get back.

But the current situation is that there has been no news from Seahorse Douluo, and they sent people to look for him but could not find any trace of him.

The territory of the Seagod Empire is the sum of the western provinces of the former Tiandou Empire and the Haagen-Dazs Kingdom.

Such a territory is neither big nor small for a Titled Douluo.

If they travel at full speed, they can cross the entire territory of the empire in two or three days.

Therefore, in their opinion, since there was no news from Seahorse Douluo, there was a high possibility that some accident had occurred.

Suddenly, Sea Ghost Douluo speculated:
"Haima went to a city on the border of the empire for inspection, but the people in that city had never seen Haima. What do you think? Could it be that he met a Titled Douluo from the mainland on his way to the city, and then..."

He didn't say any more, but everyone present knew what he hadn't finished saying.

That is, the seahorse encountered a poacher at the Titled Douluo level.

The continent is vast, the ocean is boundless.

There are only a few hundred thousand year old soul beasts even in the Xingdou Great Forest, the largest gathering place of soul beasts on the continent, but there are at least dozens or hundreds of hundred thousand year old soul beasts in the ocean.

This time, the seven hundred thousand year old sea soul beasts led their tribes to migrate from the ocean to the rivers of the mainland. This gave the Titled Douluo of the top forces on the mainland an opportunity to hunt the hundred thousand year old soul beasts.

Over the past few months, there have been many poachers from the mainland who have come to their Sea God Empire to poach sea soul beasts, including seven or eight Titled Douluo-level poachers.

Among the many poachers, the most rampant was a force called the Body Sect, which hunted no less than a thousand sea soul beasts, including no less than a hundred ten-thousand-year-old sea soul beasts. They even almost succeeded in hunting down the Blood-Pattern Seal King, one of the seven hundred-thousand-year-old sea soul beasts.

Fortunately, the Three-Eyed Demon Whale King was nearby at the time and rescued the Blood-Marked Seal King in time, otherwise the Body Sect would have succeeded.

However, news came recently that the Three-Eyed Demon Whale King also died in a self-destruction for some reason, leaving only six of the seven hundred thousand year old sea soul beasts.

"The strength of the Body Sect cannot be underestimated. If Kaiba really encounters that group of lunatics, I'm afraid he will be in great danger."

Hailong Douluo spoke of the worst possible scenario. He had once encountered a Titled Douluo from the Body Sect while patrolling the city and had fought with him. After the fight, he knew the terrifying strength of the other party.

His martial soul was skin, which provided him with unparalleled defense. After unleashing his martial soul's true form, even his strongest attack could only leave a shallow white mark on the opponent's body.

Among the seven Pillar Guard Douluo, the level 95 Sea Dragon Douluo is already the strongest among them. The others are of average strength among the Titled Douluo, and Seahorse Douluo's strength is at the bottom among them.

If you really encounter a Titled Douluo from the Body Sect, the possibility of survival is almost zero.

The fact that there has been no news from Seahorse Douluo has undoubtedly confirmed this possibility.

An invisible haze hung over their heads, leaving them speechless for a long time.

After a long while, the Sea Witch broke the silence and said:

"Whether Haiba has met with an accident or not, the most urgent task is to give an explanation to the high priest."

"Your Majesty's coronation ceremony is imminent. If any of our Seagod Seven Sacred Pillar Guard Douluo are absent from such an important occasion, the empire will lose face."

"The only solution now is to find someone to impersonate Kaiba and take his place at the coronation ceremony in seven days."

"That's the only way." Sea Dragon Douluo took over and said:

"I will report this to the High Priest. You guys should stay idle. Not just anyone pretending to be a seahorse can fool the world."

"Therefore, you must pay extra attention to the person who pretends to be Kaiba!"

"Don't worry." The Sea Witch was the first to answer among the crowd:

"Since I proposed this method, let me do it."

"Although I am still a little girl in our mermaid clan, I am over 80 years old after all. There are not many of you who are older than me."

"As the saying goes, the older you get, the more stable you become. Just leave this to me, and rest assured."

After saying this, without waiting for their reply, the Sea Witch left the meeting hall with a stream of sea water.

……

Somewhere on the mainland.

In a classical and elegant garden.

Jixiang lay on the ancient wooden armrest, looking towards the west.

"Why? You don't want to attend the coronation ceremony?"

A young man with blue hair and blue eyes suddenly appeared beside Jixiang and advised:
"The vacant throne of the Sea God Empire suddenly has an heir. It goes without saying that someone must have been recognized by the Sea God's inheritance."

"As the inheritors of the gods, your status is not lower than the other party."

"But once you go back, have you ever thought about what identity you will use to face all this?"

"We are equals. An emperor of a country would never allow such a thing to happen. Or are you willing to be a slave and work like a cow or a horse for the inheritor of the sea god?"

Hearing this, Jixiang's expression changed obviously.

Seeing this, the blue-haired young man took advantage of the situation and continued to persuade:
"You have inherited the throne of the God of Light. If you recognize the successor of the God of Sea as your master, what do you want the God of Light to think?"

"When you ascend to the divine realm and become the God of Light, will you continue to serve as the Sea God's subordinate?"
