After resting for two days, Rong Chaoxi and others followed Hai Yan to meet the high priest and the elders.
Xumi Island is surrounded by mountains on three sides and faces the sea on one side. The Elder Hall and the altar are located in the middle of the valley.
The Hall of Elders is located in the center, with a vast circular platform in front of it.
The lake blue and light yellow brocade stretched from the roof of the hall to the four sides of the circular platform. The first ray of sunlight in the morning shone in, illuminating the place with golden splendor and sparkling sea waves.
When they arrived, everyone on the island was already waiting in front of the temple.
Everyone was dressed very formally, in blue and white brocade that looked like flowing waves under the sunlight.
The face and arms are painted with exquisite patterns, which is the most solemn attire for sacrifices here.
Hai Yan looked at this situation and frowned slightly.
Chaoxi did not agree to bestow divine power, so why did they dress up to invite the gods?
He looked at the high priest on the stage with a puzzled look on his face.
The high priest glanced at the great elder, a hint of displeasure flashing across his face.
"That's so beautiful, Yan Zi, I want one too." Rong Chaoxi raised his little head and stared at the shimmering brocade, his eyes sparkling.
[Big Wood, I found some hair for you to wear in the winter...]
Poinciana: ...
Thank you for remembering me!
If you have the time to look for these things, why don’t you cast a spell to make it spring all year round for me!!!
Hai Yan immediately responded with a smile, "Okay, I'll send you a batch later and make you a set of traditional clothing for our Houchao people."
Shark silk is extremely rare in other places, but every household on Xumi Island can weave it.
"It's not okay to show too much skin." Rong Yubai's upbringing since childhood made him dislike the somewhat revealing clothing worn by the Houchao people.
During the past few days on the island, as soon as I went down the mountain, I could see many women walking around freely with their arms, legs, waists and feet exposed.
Every time he would blush and look away, almost saying that it was immoral.
Sometimes, I envy the Third Prince for not being able to see.
Hai Yan couldn't help but laugh and said, "Okay, I'll modify it appropriately according to your Dongwu's dressing style."
After walking a few steps forward, Hai Yan introduced,
"This is the Elders' Hall, where the high priest and the elders discuss important matters."
"The two in the middle of the stage are the Great Elder and the High Priest. They are the two most respected people on Xumi Island..."
After a pause, he continued:
"Chao Xi, they might... ask you to summon the gods today."
Chaoxi already knew the purpose of Hai Yan's trip to Dongwu, but after arriving here, she did not mention a word about the divine power, and Hai Yan did not dare to ask.
After all, Lord Cangmo was being persecuted by his own people. Under such circumstances, he had no face to bring up the matter.
"Would you like to invite the Sea God?" Rong Chaoxi said, "Sure, but I wonder if He's busy lately."
That scumbag Sea God is merciful and keeps his children everywhere. I wonder if he is practicing dual cultivation in someone's bed right now.
Before becoming a god, the Sea God was a senior disciple of the Hehuan Sect, and he cultivated the way of love.
Because of this, Ye He always called him the King of the Sea, and always added a "ba". He was not satisfied with it, so he changed it to the God of the Sea without authorization.
So he became the "Sea God Spirit" again.
"Sea God...spirit?" Hai Yan looked puzzled.
Rong Chaoxi waved his hand, "It doesn't matter, you can call him Poseidon."
Hai Yan: ...
It’s okay for you to shout, but it would be disrespectful for me to shout.
After all, he was his great-great-great-grandfather from many generations ago.
After greeting everyone, the high priest with strange runes painted on his face asked with a smile:
"I heard that a few days ago, Princess Chaoyang turned a person into a fish?"
Rong Chaoxi nodded, "Do you want one too? I'll help you change..."
As she spoke, she raised her hand.
"No, no, no..." Hai Yan quickly stopped him.
He is here to protect the master's face.
"Ahem..." The elder with white beard and white hair beside him coughed twice and said:
"Princess Chaoyang, I believe you already know why Xumi Island invited you here this time."
"I know, I know." Rong Chaoxi tiptoed to take the fruit on the altar.
Upon seeing this, Rong Yubai handed the plate to her.
Several elders frowned. How could the people of Dongwu be so ignorant of etiquette that they even dared to eat things given to gods!
Now Hai Yan and Hai Xing said that she had great supernatural powers. They didn’t believe it at first, but after she turned people into fish, they had to believe it.
Even the first generation descendants of the sea god did not have this ability.
It can be imagined that the god she worships holds her in high esteem.
It's really puzzling. How could she, a little girl, have such virtue and ability?
"Then could Princess Chaoyang please summon the gods immediately," the Great Elder said. "If you need anything, please let us know and we will prepare immediately."
"No need to prepare anything." Rong Chaoxi waved his hand nonchalantly, "I'll just give a shout."
As she said this, she stuffed a few grapes into her mouth, jumped off the chair, patted her butt and rubbed her hands.
Then he took a deep breath, made trumpets with his hands, and shouted to the sea:
"Sea God, I have something to ask you, please come out..."
"Aquaman, do you hear that?"
Everyone: ……………………
After shouting a few times, the little guy looked at the elders and high priests on the stage who were stunned.
"He hates being called Poseidon and Seagod the most. From now on, when you look for him, just call him like that and he will come out."
"You...how can you be so disrespectful!"
The second elder frowned and pounded his crutch on the ground, making a clanging sound.
"You little fool, you are insulting God like this! Are you going to die?" The Seventh Elder, whose deer was stolen, glared again.
"Why don't you kneel down and apologize to the Sea God?"
"I didn't insult him. I've always called him that." Rong Chaoxi scratched his head.
Although he took a few deep breaths every time he heard it, he never corrected it.
"Boom..."
Suddenly, a strong wind blew up and a dark cloud rose from the sea.
There were lightning and thunder in the clouds, huge waves surged on the sea, and the sea and the sky were indistinguishable from each other.
When the islanders turned around and saw this scene, they were shocked and horrified.
Xumi Island had been peaceful for thousands of years, and they had never seen such huge waves sweeping across the sky.
"Poseidon, Poseidon is angry!"
Everyone knelt on the ground in fear, "Sea God, please calm down, Sea God, please calm down..."
They all knelt down and begged for mercy.
Several elders looked at each other in confusion. "We are descendants of the Sea God. He shouldn't..."
They stared nervously.
No matter if he is angry or something else, as long as the Sea God appears, it will be the hope of continuing the Houchao tribe.
"You're not really angry about Chaoxi's scolding, are you?" Chen Ji nervously hugged Cao Shuangying's arm, "God... shouldn't be so stingy, right?"
"What are you afraid of? Chaoxi is also a god. He definitely can't beat you." Cao Shuangying patted his hand to comfort him.
"Chaoxi..." Hai Yan shouted worriedly.
Rong Chaoxi looked at the surging clouds and the sea over there, his delicate little eyebrows tightly furrowed, and his back teeth clenched hard, as if he was exerting force when defecating.
Hai Yan: ...
Uh uh uh..., she shouldn't be...
