Douluo: Martial Soul Asura Sword, Supreme Killing God

"Are you seeing things? The High Priest is in love? They must be here to celebrate Valentine's Day, right?"

The surrounding chatter was filled with surprise and amazement, mixed with envy and sincere blessings.

Poseidon's cheeks flushed instantly as she listened to the whispers around her. She hurriedly lowered her head, wishing she could disappear into the ground.

She held the position of High Priestess for decades and was the leader of the people of Poseidon Island.

But now, she and Su Mo are holding hands and strolling down the street, attracting a crowd of onlookers.

In an instant, she felt that her former dignified and majestic image had vanished.

Chapter 136 Releasing Lanterns, the Shy Poseidon

"Don't be nervous," Su Mo said softly, squeezing her hand.

"Let them talk, don't take it to heart."

From now on, with me here, you no longer need to bear the heavy burden of being the high priest. Just be your most authentic self.

Upon hearing this, Poseidon looked up and met Su Mo's smiling eyes, and most of the unease and tension in her heart quietly dissipated.

She took a deep breath, gave a soft "hmm," and gradually regained her composure.

As a level 99 peerless Douluo, what storms hasn't she seen?

It's just holding hands, what's the big deal?

It's not like it's anything shameful.

Thinking this way, Poseidon gradually relaxed.

The two hadn't been strolling around for long when night completely fell.

At this moment, the moon, like a silver plate, hung high in the sky, enveloping Hailong City in a silvery glow.

The atmosphere on the street grew increasingly lively, with couples holding hands everywhere, their laughter echoing throughout the streets.

Some people confessed their love under the moon, some exchanged small gifts, some released lanterns by the water, and some kissed in public, completely disregarding the gazes of others.

Su Mo also took Poseidon to experience the various Valentine's Day customs on Poseidon Island.

They first arrived at a stall selling lanterns.

The stall owner was a kind-looking old woman who was so surprised when she saw Poseidon that she almost dropped the lantern she was holding.

But she quickly regained her composure and warmly greeted Su Mo and the other person:

"High Priest, sir, would you like to buy two lanterns? Releasing lanterns on the night of the full moon is an old tradition of our Seagod Island."

"As long as the two of you release the lanterns together, the Sea God will bless you and ensure your happiness forever."

Upon hearing this, Poseidon glanced at Su Mo.

Su Mo smiled and took out his money to buy two lanterns.

Su Mo handed one of the lamps to Poseidon: "Write something down, make a wish."

"Hmm." Poseidon took the lantern, her slender fingers gently stroking its surface.

After a moment's thought, she took a pen from the stall owner and wrote a line of words on the lantern.

She turned slightly to the side, deliberately trying to hide what she was saying, afraid that Su Mo beside her would see it.

On the other hand, Su Mo was casual and unrestrained, picking up his pen and writing sentences in an instant.

"What did you write?" Poseidon asked softly, her eyes full of curiosity.

"You go first."

"I won't tell you." Poseidon rarely showed a bit of a girlish side.

"Then I won't tell you either," Su Mo said with a smile.

Poseidon scoffed, "Fine, I won't look then."

Then, each holding a lantern, the two slowly walked towards the place in the city where lanterns were released.

It was a small sea within a sea, and the surface was not turbulent.

By this time, the shore was already filled with couples, and when Poseidon appeared, everyone sincerely offered their blessings.

Hearing the blessings all around him, Poseidon was overjoyed.

Before long, the two squatted side by side on the bank and gently placed the lanterns in their hands into the water.

The two lanterns swayed gently on the water's surface before slowly drifting away into the distance with the ripples.

Poseidon gazed at the lanterns as they gradually disappeared into the distance, silently reciting the wish she had just written down:

I wish to stay with Su Mo forever in this life.

After releasing the lanterns, Su Mo led her through the various stalls of the night market, and they spent a long time together.

As night deepened, the crowds on the street gradually dispersed, and the bustling night market quieted down.

"Let's go back," Su Mo said.

“Okay,” Poseidon replied with a smile.

The two strolled along the road back to Poseidon Mountain, the moonlight casting long shadows on the ground.

The smile on Poseidon's lips never faded.

Because today is the happiest day of her life.

In the past, as the high priestess of Poseidon Island, she was always aloof and solitary.

Today, she finally shed the shackles of the high priestess and, like an ordinary woman, strolled hand in hand with her beloved through the streets, doing simple yet incredibly happy little things.

……

Before long, Su Mo and his companion returned to Poseidon's palace.

Su Mo had absolutely no intention of returning to Haima City.

Sleeping alone is nothing compared to having a beautiful woman by your side.

Su Mo looked around and chuckled, "The layout of your bedroom is quite elegant and simple."

Poseidon responded softly, her heart pounding.

Although she had never been involved in romantic relationships, she knew what might happen when a man and a woman were alone together late at night...

"I...I'm going to take a shower first."

Poseidon was flustered and, without waiting for Su Mo's response, quickly ran towards the side hall.

At this moment, she had long lost the majesty and dignity of the High Priestess of Poseidon Island, and instead resembled a shy and timid young girl.

Su Mo watched her flustered figure, shook his head with a smile, and then sat down in the hall to wait quietly.

About half an hour later, Poseidon slowly walked out of the side hall.

Hearing the soft footsteps, Su Mo looked up.

Poseidon had changed into a white nightgown, which perfectly complemented her hair color.

Her long, wet hair was draped over her shoulders.

Thin white straps draped gently over her delicate collarbone, with a hint of snow-white showing through the neckline.

The silk skirt draped smoothly, outlining her graceful figure. The hem fell above her knees, revealing her fair and slender legs.

She lowered her eyes, extremely shy, and didn't dare to look Su Mo in the eye.

"Su Mo, I...I'm better now, you can go."

Her voice was very soft; if Su Mo hadn't been so powerful, he probably wouldn't have been able to hear it.

"Okay," Su Mo replied calmly.

He entered the bathroom, where a faint, elegant fragrance still lingered in the air, perhaps the scent left by Poseidon.

Su Mo took a quick shower, and in just over ten minutes, he changed into clean clothes and calmly walked out of the bathroom.

At this moment, Poseidon was sitting on the bed with her hands folded on her thighs.

Su Mo walked to her side, bent down to pick her up, turned around and sat down, placing her sideways on his lap.

"ah--"

Poseidon gasped softly, her hands instinctively wrapping around Su Mo's neck. Her ear tips flushed crimson, and she lowered her eyes, never daring to look up at Su Mo.

At this moment, Su Mo raised one hand and gently stroked her cheek with his fingertips. The touch was delicate and smooth, just like a young girl's skin.

"Xixi, if you're not ready, I can give you time," Su Mo said softly.

When Poseidon heard the name "Sisi," his heart skipped a beat.

This was the first time someone had called her that.

Although it felt a little awkward, the fact that the person was Su Mo instantly transformed that awkwardness into warmth in my heart.

She paused for a moment, as if she had made a tremendous decision, and said in a soft but firm voice, "I... I can do it."

Upon hearing this, Su Mo no longer hesitated, lifted her chin, and slowly leaned closer.

"Waaaaah—!"

Poseidon's eyes widened instantly, her mind went blank, and her body stiffened.

But soon, she closed her eyes, slowly relaxed her body, and responded to Su Mo's gentleness with a touch of awkwardness.

Before long, the two of them were fully immersed in cultivation.

Only now did Poseidon fully understand that what Su Mo had said that afternoon was not about age at all.

It's absolutely full and satisfying!

The next day, the sun rises three poles.

Inside Poseidon's bedroom.
