Capítulo 3578: Chapter 3324
Meanwhile!
In the Xingluo Empire, based on the coordinates provided by Xu Sheng, the auction house had dispatched a large number of Soul Masters to station in the area, completely sealing off the surrounding region…
The leader, a Soul Douluo level expert, looked sternly at the Soul Masters below…
"Gentlemen, I presume none of you knew what you were coming here to do before you arrived?"
On hearing this, the Soul Masters all nodded in unison…
Indeed, they were secretly dispatched by the auction house here, and they didn't even know what the specific mission was!
The former slightly nodded, "It seems so, then let me explain to you now!"
Having said that, he released his Martial Soul, and eight Soul Rings levitated around his feet…
Then, one of his soul skills flashed, his arm bursting with a blinding golden light as if undergoing sublimation, filled with the destructive power that could obliterate heaven and earth…
"Bang!"
As his burly fist violently smashed into the ground, the terrifying force caused the earth below to crumble and break apart…
In the blink of an eye, a large hole had formed…
Seeing this, everyone was somewhat puzzled…
"Why did the lord attack the ground? Could it be that he was dissatisfied with our just response?"
"No, that shouldn't be it, the lord must have another profound reason for doing so!"
However, it didn't take long for someone to notice something critical…
"Wait… Look, there seems to be something shimmering inside that large hole below!"
"It can't be wrong, it absolutely can't be wrong, that shimmering object seems to be rare metal, I've had the fortune to see it before!"
"Good heavens, just randomly striking the ground exposed so many rare resources; could it be that our purpose here is to develop this area?"
"That must be it; otherwise, the lord wouldn't need to do such a thing."
Upon hearing their discussions, the Soul Douluo spoke again, "It seems everyone has guessed it, beneath this area lies a vast amount of rare resources, even more than what our auction house possesses!"
"And your task is to join me in developing the rare resources in this place!"
As soon as these words came out, they immediately sparked controversy…
"But, my lord, since we know this place has rare resources, can't we just let those civilians do the mining?"
"Yes, we are all Soul Masters, isn't using us here a bit of an overkill?"
"Exactly, if we leave the auction house, wouldn't its defense become extremely weak?"
"My lord, I think this is somewhat inappropriate, let the civilians of the Xingluo Empire do the mining instead?"
You must know they are Soul Masters, how could they use their strength for mining rare resources?
That should be done by those civilians who lack Soul Power!
The Soul Douluo frowned, "All of you, shut up! This is an order from the higher-ups at the auction house, and no objections are allowed!"
Although he also felt that involving Soul Masters in mining was somewhat inappropriate,
the real reason for doing so must be the desire to keep the existence of this place a secret, even from the royal household.
Therefore, the best choice was naturally a small number of Soul Masters capable of matching hundreds!
This undeniable tone made all the Soul Masters present bow their heads…
Though reluctant, defying the words of this Soul Douluo lord could lead to unimaginable consequences!
Seeing that everyone had quieted down, the former's expression eased a bit...
"Before we officially start excavating rare resources, there is one thing I need to emphasize. No one is to leave this place without permission, or else, death!"
"Did everyone understand?"
If this information were to leak out, not to mention these fellows, even he himself would be implicated!
All present immediately responded in unison, "Understood, Sir!"
Receiving the answer, the Soul Douluo no longer wasted words, "Very well, since you've understood, let's begin work!"
"Rest assured, once this matter is concluded, everyone present will receive a hefty reward, something beyond what you could achieve in your lifetime!"
As he finished speaking, the Soul Masters immediately began their excavation work...
Watching this scene, the Soul Douluo couldn't help but sigh, "Huh... I wonder where that great person obtained the information that there are abundant rare resources here!"
"With only these Soul Masters, it's impossible to fully develop it. In the end, it will mostly be handed over to the royal household in exchange for certain rights and benefits!"
However, this was not something for him to ponder over!
What he ought to do now was to excavate the rare resources as much as possible and then secretly send them to the auction house.
...
Looking at the calm and serene Xu Sheng, Gui Mei couldn't help but remind him, "Xu Sheng, now that you've resolved the major trouble of the missing Boundless Universe Shield, shouldn't we be leaving too?"
He had thought they would stay for a day or two before leaving, but Xu Sheng seemed to have no intention of doing so!
Xu Sheng glanced at him, "Elder Gui, you..."
Before he could finish, Gui Mei interrupted him, "Stop, if you're asking me to leave alone, don't even dream of it!"
If he left Xu Sheng behind, finding him again might not be so simple!
After all, this guy had led them away from Sea God's Island alive and might even know secrets about other powers.
Xu Sheng shrugged his shoulders, casually saying, "Well, if Elder Gui you do not wish to leave, why bother asking me these things!"
The reason he was still staying here was because there was still one matter he needed to attend to!
Gui Mei frowned and emphasized again, "Xu Sheng, you need to understand one thing, Your Holiness has probably already learned about our trail. If you don't want to anger him, it's better not to stay long in the Xingluo Empire."
Your Holiness is not the kind to show mercy!
If angered, there's a possibility that he might order to have you executed!
Although he served as the trump card in the Spirit Masters' Grand Contest of the whole continent, this does not mean that with his loss, the members of the Spirit Hall Golden Generation won't achieve victory!
Xu Sheng smiled slightly, "Elder Gui, how do you know that Your Holiness will be angry? Perhaps, he'll be pleased that we haven't encountered other Three Sects' persecution and have lived safely!"
Gui Mei was stunned, but then other thoughts crossed his mind...
"Uh... this, it's indeed strange to say, but since we left Soul City, it seems we haven't been ambushed by anyone!"
"Could this be a scheme from the upper three families? Knowing that acting like this would be futile, they might wait to strike just as we are about to return?"
He increasingly felt this possibility was very high, as Xu Sheng's talent was too formidable; other sects could not possibly allow him to continue developing!
