Chapter 8 Visitors from Martial Soul Hall!_1
Translator: 549690339
Surrounding a slowly moving carriage, numerous elite soldiers clad in armor encircled it.
The leading soldier suddenly leaned close to the carriage, furrowing his brows in confusion as he asked, "Your Highness, Crown Prince Xue Qinghe, we have now arrived at the center of Tiandou City. If I may be so bold to ask, where are you planning to go?"
Indeed, the occupant sitting in the carriage at this moment was the son of Emperor Xue Ye of Tiandou City, the Crown Prince of the Tiandou Empire, Xue Qinghe himself!
Upon hearing this, Xue Qinghe silently shook his head and coolly said, "It's nothing. I'm just a bit tired and wanted to wander around Tiandou City."
Although he was only nine years old, he was already capable of maintaining composure no matter what he encountered.
The soldier was startled, realized his own misconduct, and apologetically said, "Yes, Your Highness, Crown Prince Xue Qinghe."
Damn it, how could he have so presumptuously inquired about His Highness like that!
Having said that, he immediately returned to the main force, vigilantly watching their surroundings…
After he left, Xue Qinghe bit his thin lip in confusion…
The immensely evil fluctuation that had just appeared in Tiandou City caused his Martial Soul to resonate and tremble continuously…
It seemed to be devoid of hostility—rather, it felt like excitement!
His Martial Soul had never shown such an anomaly, and even that person (Qian Dao Liu) had never mentioned such a situation.
Xue Qinghe took a deep breath and murmured in confusion, "What exactly is going on? Why doesn't this evil fluctuation repulse me?"
…
Suyun Tao watched as Xu Sheng, who was space out next to him, shook his hand in front of Xu Sheng's eyes a few times, "Xu Sheng, Xu Sheng?"
Xu Sheng smiled lightly and absentmindedly said, "I'm fine; it's just that it seems I can't stay in Tiandou City anymore."
If he continued to stay in Tiandou City, he couldn't shake off an ominous premonition…
As for Qian Renxue, who appeared in his mind? It could be seen that my Nine-Hearted Begonia Martial Soul has some origin with her Seraph…
Perhaps this was the wife destiny had decreed in my transmigration?
(Old Xu, Old Xu, do you want a wife or not, all you need to do is say the word…)
He shook his head, casting these thoughts aside…
Suyun Tao's expression grew uneasy as he queried, "Cannot stay? Are you worried about not having golden soul coins? Actually, I could overdraft next month's salary!"
Xu Sheng waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "It's not about that, Xiao Taozi, let's go."
Seeing that there was no sign of disappointment on his face, Suyun Tao realized he truly did not want to stay in Tiandou City any longer.
"Alright!"
…
However, a piece of good news did take Xu Sheng and Suyun Tao by surprise—the Pope Hall had already sent a message, approving Xu Sheng's entry into Martial Soul City.
And after receiving the message, their location was quickly pinpointed by people from Martial Soul Hall…
Within a few hours, dozens of strong individuals dressed in Martial Soul Hall attire appeared before them…
Suyun Tao's eyes widened, his body trembling as he stared at the formidable members of Martial Soul Hall before them, each emitting an incredibly strong aura, especially the elder in the middle, who, despite concealing his aura, exuded an even more overwhelming presence!
He never expected Xu Sheng to be so highly regarded that Martial Soul Hall would send people to personally escort him!
If Suyun Tao knew among these people was a Soul Douluo Warrior, as well as numerous Soul Ancestors, he might die of fear…
The old man in the middle slowly approached Xu Sheng, his cloudy eyes examining Xu Sheng like a hawk, and then spoke in a somewhat ominous tone, "You are Xu Sheng, right? We are here on the orders of His Holiness, the Pontiff, to escort you to Martial Soul City!"
Initially, upon hearing the news, he had been full of anticipation, but now, seeing such a young child, the trust in the depths of his heart had long been worn away!
His Holiness had issued a command. If this child's claim of innate level 90 Soul Power was just a bluff, then they would test his talent. If he proved lacking in talent, they were to execute him on the spot!
The dignity of the Martial Soul Hall must not be violated!
Xu Sheng smiled indifferently, "Thank you, Soul Douluo. May I ask when we shall set out?"
Suyun Tao looked at the elder with a bewildered face, somewhat unsure whether Xu Sheng was joking!
It was this simple sentence that immediately caused a flash of surprise in the elder's eyes, and he thought in shock, "!!! He had never mentioned that he was a Soul Douluo, yet this child managed to see through his soul power rank!!!"
His identity had been kept a guarded secret, and it should have been impossible to expose, so the only possibility was that this child truly possessed level 90 Soul Power! Only that could explain how he so easily saw through his own strength!
Suddenly, a trail of cold sweat trickled down his forehead, and the elder bowed deeply with a face full of respect, "Xu Sheng, I have been presumptuous!"
Seeing this, the others from Martial Soul Hall standing behind also bowed their bodies and lowered their heads...
Only Suyun Tao beside them sucked in a breath of cold air, "Hiss, could it be that this person is truly a Soul Douluo level powerhouse..."
To be escorted by a Soul Douluo was indeed a great honor for Xu Sheng!
Xu Sheng helped the elder to his feet and smiled lightly, "There's no need for this, let's hurry on our way!"
This little display of power had tamed him quite nicely, hadn't it?
The elder nodded gratefully, and his fondness for Xu Sheng grew even more...
With such terrifying talent and the means to win people over, this child's future was bound to be extraordinary!
No, from the moment of his Martial Soul Awakening, he ceased to be ordinary—he was on par with the peak of the continent's Title Douluo!
The elder turned around, and sternly commanded the people of the Martial Soul Hall, "Attention! People of the Martial Soul Hall! Protect Xu Sheng at all costs! No mistakes!"
Suyun Tao, standing aside not sure what to do, cautiously said, "Then, my lord, I..."
The elder's icy gaze swept over Suyun Tao, frightening him into retreating uncontrollably a few steps...
Then, with a troubled expression, the elder began to explain to Xu Sheng, "Your Eminence, Lord Pontiff only ordered us to escort you to Martial Soul City, I'm afraid..."
Xu Sheng glanced at the trembling Suyun Tao, his eyes full of suppressed hardship, and felt a chuckle bubbling within...
However, in the original story, Bi Bidong was always decisive, unwavering...
With this, even if he wanted to take Suyun Tao along, he was powerless to do so!
He then curled his lips with an air of charm, "Xiao Taozi, since it is so, you shall not accompany me. Don't worry... I'll have your back..."
Suyun Tao was quite self-aware, knowing that going to Martial Soul City would earn him no favors, so he nodded and silently stepped back to one side...
Xu Sheng held his forehead and muttered under his breath, "Eh, seeing Xiao Taozi like this really tugs at the heartstrings. To the uninitiated, it would seem like I've abandoned him."
Well, never mind. I'll find an opportunity to make it up to him...
With that thought, Xu Sheng slowly turned around, his expression relaxed, and said, "Let's set off!"
The elder, upon receiving the directive, nodded lightly, responding, "Yes, Your Eminence."
"Depart!!"
At that command, everyone from Martial Soul Hall immediately formed a protective circle around Xu Sheng and then began to move swiftly...
