Capítulo 43: Chapter 43 Leaving Martial Soul Hall_1
Bi Bidong furrowed her brows, her gaze resting on Xu Sheng, "Xu Sheng? Do you have any questions?"
Flame subconsciously thought that Xu Sheng was dissatisfied with the task of slaying a ten-thousand-year soul beast.
Feeling anxious, he thought to himself, "Why is Xu Sheng confronting His Holiness now? Isn't it just a ten-thousand-year soul beast? Are the four of us not enough to handle it? Besides, don't we have Evil Moon and Lena's Martial Soul Fusion Skill?"
Meanwhile, Evil Moon and Hulena were intently watching Xu Sheng, waiting for what he would say next.
They knew that with Xu Sheng's ability as a Titled Douluo, even as a support class, confronting a ten-thousand-year soul beast would be a breeze...
Moreover, she had learned from her teacher that the reason he didn't train with them at noon and in the afternoon was to participate in Soul Fighting and the slaying of ten-thousand-year soul beasts!
In Hulena's view, Xu Sheng must have some important matter to raise, for him to speak out of turn and interrupt Bi Bidong...
Xu Sheng's eyes met Bi Bidong's pupils as he spoke softly, "Teacher, I wish to leave Martial Soul Hall for a time, perhaps for a year, or perhaps for several years..."
As these words fell, the entire Pope Hall became eerily silent...
The next moment, shock flashed in the eyes of both Evil Moon and Hulena, with the former asking in confusion, "Xu Sheng, what are you doing? If it's because of the ten-thousand-year soul beast mission, the four of us can surely slay it."
Lena's eyes bore into Xu Sheng, then she slightly pursed her lips and murmured, "Xu Sheng..."
Flame quietly glanced at Bi Bidong's increasingly darkened expression, knowing Xu Sheng's words must have angered His Holiness.
He hurriedly walked over, placed a hand on Xu Sheng's shoulder, and reminded him, "Xu Sheng, don't say something foolish, talking about leaving for a year or many years!"
Xu Sheng only glanced at Flame expressionlessly and said nothing...
His reasons for wanting to leave were many; he wanted to visit the peculiar Shrek Academy and, on the way, explore the bloody Slaughter City...
"Your Holiness, please calm your anger. Xu Sheng is probably just being impulsive,"
"Right, right, Xu Sheng, explain yourself to His Holiness," urged Chrysanthemum Guan and Gui Mei, who tried to explain for Xu Sheng while giving him meaningful glances...
Bi Bidong sat in the Pope's Chair with a gloomy face, feeling complex emotions as she looked at the somewhat at a loss Xu Sheng.
Xu Sheng spoke evenly, "Teacher, when you accepted me as your disciple, I said that if one day I needed to leave temporarily, you wouldn't stop me."
He believed that Bi Bidong would not break her word, given her character, and he just needed to return to Martial Soul Hall before the elite Soul Master competition...
After hearing Xu Sheng's words, Bi Bidong was silent for a long while before she let out a slightly helpless sigh, her gaze sweeping tightly across his face, as if trying to see something in it...
"Xu Sheng, can you tell me why you want to leave?"
For his own disciple to leave for the purpose of enhancing Soul Power was clearly impossible.
Xu Sheng's soul power rank had already reached a terrifying level ninety-three, an almost demonic speed of progression, hence Bi Bidong was very curious about what Xu Sheng actually wanted to do!
Xu Sheng's eyes flashed with contemplation before he replied, "Teacher, my departure this time is to seek an opportunity that can suppress the side effects of my Martial Soul: Nine-Hearted Begonia."
In truth, he had little interest in staying in Martial Soul Hall indefinitely; if he were to be a salted fish, he'd be the saltiest fish of them all.
After listening to Xu Sheng's response, Bi Bidong pondered for a moment and then consented, "I see. Since that's the case, Xu Sheng, I grant you permission to leave Martial Soul Hall. However, you must return before the elite competition in a few years."
Xu Sheng was an extremely important card for Martial Soul Hall, one that could overturn the entire Continent!
Upon seeing Bi Bidong agree to Xu Sheng's ludicrous request, Chrysanthemum Guan and Gui Mei exchanged glances, thinking the same thing.
The times have changed, my lord!
With a faint smile tugging at the corner of his mouth, Xu Sheng respectfully said, "Thank you, Teacher."
…
After leaving Pope Hall, Xu Sheng was surrounded by Evil Moon, Hulena, and Flame...
Flame said with suspicion, "Xu Sheng, you're not really leaving for several years, are you?"
He seriously suspected this guy was taking advantage of having good looks now to find some other pretty girls on his own!
With a deadpan face, Xu Sheng mustered a faint smile, "Well, in the coming years, it'll be up to you guys to keep up Martial Soul Hall's appearances."
Evil Moon frowned unhappily and said, "We're a team. What kind of team has someone leave for years?"
The four of them had finally reached a tacit understanding as a team, but before they had even met a worthy opponent, one of them was about to leave.
Just thinking about it made everyone feel very uncomfortable!
Xu Sheng's mouth twitched slightly and he silently rolled his eyes inwardly, not wanting to hurt their pride...
The light in Hulena's eyes dimmed a lot, and she looked at Xu Sheng with some disappointment. "Xu Sheng, are you really leaving?"
Xu Sheng gently stroked her cheek as tenderly as possible, "Yeah, I'm not saying I won't come back. Don't look so disappointed."
Hulena's eyes reddened, thinking about being separated from Xu Sheng for years...
A trace of sorrow unconsciously emerged in her heart...
After looking at the three of them, Xu Sheng said, "Evil Moon, Lena, and whoever... If there's nothing else, I'll be taking my leave first."
Flame promptly objected, "Hey, hey, Xu Sheng, who are you calling whoever? My name is Flame, Flame!"
Xu Sheng really knows how to wind someone up before leaving, and just when Flame was starting to feel a bit sad about it.
Thinking about it that way, all those feelings were for naught!
Just as Xu Sheng turned to go, Hulena wiped her eyes and called out to him, "Xu Sheng, wait for me. I need to get something..."
After saying this, Hulena ran off...
Xu Sheng and the others were completely mystified...
It took a few minutes for Hulena to come back panting, holding a pitch-black veil-hat and a cloak in her hands!
Hulena walked up to Xu Sheng, face flushed, and handed over the two items. "Xu Sheng, this is for you. Without something to cover up, it's easy to attract... other people..."
Hulena was actually going to say "opposite sex," but perhaps because Evil Moon and Flame were present, she forcefully changed her choice of words.
Upon seeing these items, Flame burst into loud laughter, "...Ahahaha, this is killing me! Lena, what you're giving suits Xu Sheng's personality so much."
Evil Moon also struggled to withhold his laughter, turning his head away as if pretending not to care...
Xu Sheng looked at the items Hulena had passed to him, taking them with trembling hands...
If these items were normal, it would be one thing, but...
They were clearly a tattered old veil-hat with loose threads and a tastelessly worn-out cloak...
Was she trying to make him look like a beggar??
Despite the twitching in his heart, Xu Sheng put on a grateful face, "Thanks... Lena, this item... I... I really like it."
Hulena, with reddened eyes, didn't say another word, but suddenly hugged Xu Sheng tightly and began to sob softly...
Caught off guard by her wild action, Xu Sheng was startled and was about to speak but instead closed his mouth, silently extending a hand to gently pat Hulena on the back...
