Douluo Continent: The Ten Kings of Hell, I am the Emperor of the Underworld

Chapter 159 The Deep Sea Demon Whale King, recognizes a human as its master?
"Where should we even begin to look for such a large area?"

On the vast ocean, Ning Qiuyang stood in mid-air, looking out at the sea.

He didn't linger at the Spirit Hall for long; after leaving, he went to the sea.

He needed to find a powerful enough soul beast to calm the boundless sea of ​​blood, and the nearly million-year-old Deep Sea Demon Whale King was naturally the best candidate... beast selection.

But the ocean is boundless, and finding a powerful soul beast that can lurk in the deep sea is not so easy.

"How about we go to Poseidon Island? The Poseidon's divine consciousness is still there; perhaps we can find it and question him."

However, Ning Qiuyang also felt that it was somewhat impossible.

Even if the Sea God has no backbone, once his divine thought is gone, it's gone. He wouldn't be willing to help right after being beaten up, would he?

"Come out, everyone, help me find a soul beast."

Ning Qiuyang slapped his forehead. He wasn't alone. If he encountered a problem, he could call for help from others or summon soul beasts.

"We meet again, Master. Did you miss me or Gu Yue...?"

When the road to the underworld opened, Na'er was the first one to run over.

However, before she could finish her sentence, Gu Yue, who had arrived shortly after, grabbed her by the throat.

I knew this guy was going to spout nonsense again.

Gu Yue had figured out the most effective way to deal with Na'er: don't waste words with her, just take action.

The effect was indeed remarkable. Na'er was speechless and kept patting Gu Yue's arm, indicating that she had given up.

Ning Qiuyang summoned a total of three people, or you could say two: Gu Yue, Na'er, and Di Tian.

As the ruler of all soul beasts, the Silver Dragon King and the Deep Sea Demon Whale King are both soul beasts, and the Deep Sea Demon Whale King is one that was bullied by the Sea God. It is likely that the Deep Sea Demon Whale King will not have much resentment towards the Silver Dragon King, who is the ruler of all soul beasts, even though he has not done anything.

As for Di Tian, ​​although he also liked to sleep, and often slept for thousands of years, he had traveled to many places in the past and should have had dealings with the Deep Sea Demon Whale King.

"Di Tian, ​​do you know where the Deep Sea Demon Whale King is?"

Di Tian thought for a moment and said:

"I have seen the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, but it has been tens of thousands of years since I last saw it. I don't know if it has moved to another place."

The ocean and the starry forest are different.

Soul beasts cannot easily leave the Star Dou Great Forest, but in the ocean, where humans cannot easily venture deep, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King can freely travel in most places.

Fortunately, or perhaps the Deep Sea Demon Whale King was just lazy, it actually stayed in the sea area that Di Tian knew about.

"roar~"

With a roar of a dragon, Emperor Tian summoned the Deep Sea Demon Whale King.

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King was enormous. When it emerged from beneath the sea, the water surged as if a small island had risen from the sea.

"Di Tian, ​​what are you doing here?"

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King's tone was not pleasant, and his attitude towards Di Tian was not respectful.

The title of Di Tian, ​​the Beast God, can only be displayed in the Star Dou Great Forest. Neither the Snow Emperor of the Far North nor the Deep Sea Demon Whale King recognize this title.

Especially the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, who was just one step away from reaching level 100, how could he possibly recognize Di Tian, ​​a soul beast whose age was far less than his, as a Beast God?

Di Tian's expression was also very unpleasant.

In front of the Lord, and in front of two... three Lords, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King really showed no respect.

"I came here to see you, of course. Do you think I'm just bored out of my mind?"

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King has completely emerged from beneath the sea surface.

Its sound is distant and deep, as if it comes from the distant past, carrying the breath of the deep sea.

"Who knows? Back then, you were just bored and came to my ocean to show off, trying to make me acknowledge your so-called Beast God..."

"Stop talking nonsense." Di Tian quickly interrupted.

If she continued, the Deep Sea Whale King would have already told her all the embarrassing stories from her past.

Di Tian did indeed have dealings with the Deep Sea Demon Whale King back then, and they even fought.

As a result, Di Tian's defeat was not a complete one. After all, his true form was a dragon, and not just any ordinary dragon. He had a slight suppressive effect on the Deep Sea Demon Whale King and managed to escape unscathed.

However, after that, Di Tian never came to the sea again.

“It is not me who is looking for you, but my Lord who is looking for you.”

"Lord?"

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King's voice was first filled with doubt, then turned into anger and sarcasm.

"Di Tian, ​​you're getting worse as you get older. You've actually found yourself a master? You wouldn't happen to be like those scumbag soul beasts like the Demon Soul Great White Shark, and have also pledged allegiance to some god in the God Realm, would you?"

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King harbors deep resentment.

It took it millions of years to become a god, and it was just one step away from that final step, which is called the divine position.

The gods of the divine realm make no attempt to conceal their discrimination and suppression against soul beasts. No matter how hard the Deep Sea Demon Whale King tries, he cannot change this reality. He remains stuck in this position and cannot become a god for a long time.

"Shut up! Look who's speaking, my lord!"

Di Tian said angrily.

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King slowly turned its body, stirring up another giant wave.

"You...you are..."

Gu Yue and Na'er had not revealed their auras until now, when the aura belonging to the Silver Dragon King was released, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King immediately felt a desire to submit to him.

The so-called status of the Lord of Soul Beasts was actually established when the Dragon God was still alive.

However, the Dragon God later split, the Golden Dragon King was sealed away, leaving only the Silver Dragon King, who had the most right to inherit, and became the new ruler of the soul beasts.

However, due to her inaction, or rather, her serious injury and slumber, most of the soul beasts gradually forgot that there was such a sovereign. Although the Deep Sea Demon Whale King had lived for a long time, he still did not immediately react when Di Tian called him "Master".

"Are you His Majesty the Silver Dragon King?"

Finally, under the dragon might of Gu Yue and Na'er, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's attitude became much more respectful.

No matter what, the Silver Dragon King still had a lot of prestige. The Deep Sea Demon Whale King could curse Emperor Tian and covet the Sea God's position, but he couldn't muster much hostility towards the Silver Dragon King.

"How come you have two?"

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King was very puzzled. The split of the Dragon God could be said to be a landmark event that marked the complete decline of the Soul Beasts.

Why doesn't the Silver Dragon King learn his lesson and instead follows the same path as the Dragon God?

"Little whale, I need your help with something, would you be willing?" Na'er asked.

Gu Yue was taciturn, and Na'er took over the role of speaking.

"Of course, it would be my honor if you could find any use for me."

It's impossible to say that the Deep Sea Demon Whale King was truly loyal to Gu Yuena. After all, the title of a sovereign doesn't bring any benefits to the soul beasts. Even the resurrection of the Dragon God didn't earn the loyalty and love of all the soul beasts.

However, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King would not refuse to help with small matters as long as they did not infringe upon his fundamental interests.

"Alright, come and acknowledge me as your master!"

"Recognize the master?"

Aren't you already the ruler of all soul beasts?
The puzzled Deep Sea Demon Whale King looked in the direction Na'er pointed and saw the figure it had been ignoring.

"What? You want me to acknowledge a human as my master?"
