Capítulo 2744: Chapter 2729: Coincidence_1
However, seeing that Xu Sheng did not speak, Qian Renxue hesitated and added, "Or else, Xu Sheng, could you go and comfort Xue Ke, and also take the opportunity to clarify these matters?"
Xu Sheng shook his head in refusal, "There's no need, Ren Xue, you have already made things quite clear. Going now would only make her more heartbroken."
Qian Renxue did not dwell on this topic any longer and shifted the subject, "Also, Xue Ye has heard of your return to the imperial palace and seems to want to meet with you again. What do you plan to do?"
Without any hesitation, Xu Sheng replied, "Let's meet. Perhaps there could be areas where I need his help!"
Since Xue Ye was clearly trying to woo him over, why not make good use of it!
Xue Qinghe did not expect the former to be so decisive and asked, "Shall I go and tell him now?"
Xu Sheng expressed affirmation, "Yes, thank you for the trouble."
With that reply, Qian Renxue did not say more. After using her skull power to transform, she simply gestured and then left…
Not the slightest worry about what Xu Sheng might do alone in her absence showed that she already trusted him enough!
After she had gone...
It was only then that Serpent Spear Douluo and Porcupine Douluo appeared before him...
Even the latter was surprised by the appearance of the former, "Serpent Spear? When did you come back?"
Serpent Spear Douluo answered unexpectedly, "Just now. I witnessed the goddess eat up this kid with jealousy. Honestly, aside from being good-looking and having a higher soul power rank, there's nothing particularly attractive about him!"
Porcupine Douluo covered his mouth and coughed, "Cough cough… Serpent Spear, please be careful with your words, he's still right here!"
But Serpent Spear Douluo did not care and glanced at Xu Sheng before speaking indifferently, "It's fine, I meant for him to hear it!"
Xu Sheng just shrugged his shoulders and made no other response...
After all, he knew that even though they seemed to be on the same side, Serpent Spear Douluo and Porcupine Douluo did not fully trust him!
Porcupine Douluo had nothing more to say and changed the topic, "Serpent Spear, Xu Sheng said you returned to the Worship Hall. What for?"
Serpent Spear Douluo irritably pointed at Xu Sheng, "Naturally, it's for him!"
"To tell the truth, I didn't expect the Grand Elder to not only not oppose Xu Sheng being with the goddess, but to be quite happy about it!"
Especially the manner he displayed, it was exceedingly rare to see!
The flicker in Xu Sheng's dark eyes revealed contemplation, "Not opposed, eh? It seems he knows that I come from the future and has conjectured that my existence is beneficial for Qian Renxue's growth!"
Porcupine Douluo could hardly believe it, "It can't be, the Grand Elder values the goddess highly. How could he possibly allow another man..."
Serpent Spear Douluo cut him off, "Enough, enough, let's not continue on this topic. Since the Grand Elder sees no issue, we shouldn't worry unnecessarily!"
If one were to blurt out those issues in an unguarded moment, what would await them would be the Grand Elder's punishment!!
Porcupine Douluo had no choice but to drop it...
At that moment, the former turned to Xu Sheng, "Kid, what do you plan to do next? Continue staying at the Tiandou Empire Palace? Or go in search of that creature known as the Abyssal Emperor?"
Xu Sheng paused for a moment, "I will stay for the time being!"
Since the Abyssal Emperor had already obtained the super divine weapon and left the mountains, it was certain there would be some impact on the Soul Land...
By that time, he could roughly determine the location of the Abyssal Emperor through the intelligence network of Xue Ye, the emperor himself!!
Serpent Spear Douluo was not surprised by this, "I guessed as much. Without the goddess's help, it would be almost impossible for you alone to find that guy!"
…
At this moment, the abyssal creatures, licking the fresh blood from their lips, spoke madly...
"Fantastic, after absorbing the essence of human blood, our powers have greatly increased, a feat incomparable to devouring our own kind!"
"Exactly, and especially witnessing those pitiful, despairing expressions, it's truly an appetite enhancer!!"
"Those humans can't even fight back, they're simply natural food. It's all thanks to the Great Abyssal Emperor; otherwise, we couldn't enjoy these!!"
"But that's just a little bit, nowhere near enough to fill our stomachs!"
The Abyssal Emperor looked at them and revealed a heart-palpitating smile, "Don't rush, there are as many humans as you want!!"
At these words, the abyssal creatures immediately cast ardent gazes...
Seeing this, the Abyssal Emperor paused, then said again, "However, you will need to hunt on your own!!"
This immediately made them show displeasure...
"Great Abyssal Emperor, what do you mean by this??"
"Hunt on our own? We know nothing about this Continent and have no clue where there are humans!"
"Are you saying that you intend to abandon us??"
The Abyssal Emperor said indifferently, "No, it is not like that."
"But all you need to know is that you should go to different places to devour humans. Once you become powerful enough, I will summon you!"
To avoid drawing the attention of humans prematurely, he planned to have these abyssal creatures hunt individually...
In that case, they would only be mistaken for soul beasts!!
The abyssal creatures looked at each other, all seeing the confusion in each other's eyes...
But out of absolute trust in the former, they all nodded in agreement...
"Yes, Great Abyssal Emperor!!"
...
Court Etiquette Academy!
Just as Tang San finished his studies for the day, he happened upon Princess Xue Ke, who was sobbing on her way back to the Court Etiquette Academy...
Her eyes were red and swollen, clearly having cried for a long time...
Tang San hesitated for a moment but still initiated conversation, "Princess Xue Ke, you..."
Xue Ke had no desire to talk to him, "Move aside, I don't want to talk to you right now!"
Having said that, she pushed past Tang San...
Seeing this, he intended to ignore her but then he heard a familiar phrase...
"Why on earth did my brother do that, even though Xu Sheng is but a servant, he shouldn't be treated that way!"
He immediately followed her, mustering the courage to speak again, "Um, Princess Xue Ke..."
Caught in grief and anger, Xue Ke snapped, "What on earth are you trying to do?"
Tang San suppressed the anger in his heart and plucked up the courage to say, "Princess Xue Ke, I mean no harm, I just heard you mention Xu Sheng!"
"Is there something happening between you and Brother Sheng that you can tell me about? Perhaps I could offer some help!"
Xue Ke was stunned, then said suspiciously, "You... you really can help me?"
Tang San confidently said, "Yeah, after all, I've known Brother Sheng for a long time!"
After a moment of thought, Xue Ke wiped her tears away, "Then... then you have to promise, you can't let this matter out!"
