Capítulo 3655: Chapter 3901
Having said all that, Gui Mei's cheeks turned incredibly red, obviously feeling some shame...
Xu Sheng couldn't help but sigh, "It seems Elder Gui really did tell Your Holiness the truth..."
It looked like he had to personally persuade Your Holiness now!
Feeling provoked, Gui Mei quickly explained, "Xu Sheng, that's not what I... I didn't mean..."
Xu Sheng interrupted without any concern, "There's no need to explain, Elder Gui. In fact, I anticipated this would happen, since you've always been so loyal to Martial Soul Hall."
Gui Mei was stunned and asked, "If you knew this was going to happen, why go through the motion? Why have me deliver the message to Your Holiness?"
He had thought Xu Sheng was not confident about persuading Your Holiness and had casually asked for his aid, but now it seemed that was not the case!
Xu Sheng shrugged his shoulders and shared his thoughts...
"It's nothing much, if Elder Gui could have convinced Your Holiness, it would have been easier for me!"
Gui Mei hung his head and clenched his fists tightly, "Damn it... it turns out I was worrying over nothing!"
Then, readjusting his attitude, he pointed at the door, "Enough, you should go see Your Holiness now."
Xu Sheng didn't quite understand the other's thinking; he nodded and pushed open the door to enter...
Watching him leave, Gui Mei covered his head, "This guy, knowing full well I couldn't persuade Your Holiness, why bother doing this, really!"
He felt a bit guilty earlier, having promised Xu Sheng himself!
However, Yueguan appeared beside him without warning, "Lao Gui!"
Seeing him, Gui Mei expressed his surprise, "Hmm? Yueguan, what brings you here?"
Because of the Soul Fusion Skill, they could sense each other's general location through Soul Power!
But just now, he hadn't sensed anything!
Yueguan rolled his eyes, stating irritably, "I've been here the whole time; it's just that you didn't notice me!"
Gui Mei pondered and said, "Is that so? Maybe I was just distracted!"
Seeing this, Yueguan narrowed his eyes, "Lao Gui, you are acting very strange, could it be related to Xu Sheng?"
His expression was rarely this animated, but today's actions were indeed peculiar!
Gui Mei immediately turned his head away, "I don't quite understand what you mean."
Yueguan immediately chided, "Stop pretending! Ever since you returned from Sea God's Island with Xu Sheng, you've been a bit off!"
"Did you betray Martial Soul Hall and make some unspeakable deal with that kid??"
Otherwise, how could Gui Mei have changed so much toward him!
Gui Mei was also ignited by these words, rebutting angrily, "Betray Martial Soul Hall? Have you lost your mind? How could I commit such an act—I wouldn't even if you betrayed me!"
Waiting for this response, Yueguan pressed further, "Then explain to me what exactly happened?"
"If you really betrayed Martial Soul Hall, forget about Your Holiness, I would be the first to take you down!"
Though they were close friends who had been through life and death, the prerequisite was never to betray Martial Soul Hall and always remain loyal to Your Holiness!
Gui Mei fell silent all at once...
A few seconds later, he explained, "Well… It's hard to explain, but it's definitely nothing harmful to Martial Soul Hall!"
Yueguan's expression underwent a drastic change, and his gaze grew colder, "Do you think such a reason is convincing? Lao Gui, we are sworn friends, and I don't want to be your enemy!"
He had been unsure, but now it seemed clear that something was off about Gui Mei!
If it wasn't something harmful to Martial Soul Hall, why not tell him?
Gui Mei had wanted to refuse, but considering the bigger picture, he still compromised...
"You... very well, there's no harm in telling you, after all, His Holiness the Pope will probably tell you afterwards!"
He knew Yueguan's temperament; without a reasonable explanation, misunderstandings about himself might arise!
Yueguan crossed his arms and demanded, "Then explain in detail, what exactly happened!"
Gui Mei glanced around, "Are you sure you want to interrupt the conversation between His Holiness the Pope and Xu Sheng here? They are all inside!"
Yueguan hesitated for a moment but then made up his mind, "Let's go outside the hall, today you must make things clear!"
...
After the detailed situation was explained, Yueguan was also greatly shocked...
He never expected that the incident at Sea God's Island could be so preposterous!
"My heavens, Xu Sheng... Xu Sheng was actually rejected by that Sea God? How is that possible? With his talent, it shouldn't be like this at all!"
Although he didn't want to admit it, if he were a god from the Divine Realm, he would certainly hold tight to Xu Sheng as a successor!
After all, it won't be long before he might reach Ultimate Douluo, or even break through to godhood!
Gui Mei gestured helplessly, "Who can clarify such matters? Perhaps it's related to the fact that Xu Sheng comes from the future?"
Yueguan's eyes narrowed, and he spoke seriously, "Lao Gui, if that's the case, can we deduce something?"
Gui Mei raised an eyebrow, "What? You've become so serious all of a sudden."
Could this guy have discovered some other secret?
Yueguan took a deep breath and uttered a few words...
"Since Xu Sheng comes from the future, could it mean he is subjected to greater constraints in this world to avoid having too much impact?"
"Or perhaps, he is a god who already possesses godhood, so no other god is willing to grant him godhood!!"
This statement struck Gui Mei like a thunderbolt...
Gui Mei's eyes widened, somewhat unable to believe that these words came from the other person...
"Yueguan, you might be onto something with that idea!"
Xu Sheng has always been very low-key in his actions, acting only when absolutely necessary!
For example, at the auction house in the Xingluo Empire, with those contributions, he could have easily become a noble of the royal household!
By doing so, he could leverage the power of the Xingluo Empire!
Yet, he never did so, which must have had its reasons!
Yueguan pursed his lips, "It seems Lao Gui, you've also thought of it; this Xu Sheng... is probably a future god!"
"This would also explain why there is such vast Divine Power within him, and why his spiritual power is also incredibly strong!!"
Gui Mei's pupils subtly contracted, "Wait, if the Xu Sheng from the future has returned, what about the Xu Sheng of this world?"
"Could he have disappeared??"
Upon hearing this, Yueguan broke out in a cold sweat on his back and asked with a strained voice, "Gui Mei, do you remember what is recorded about Xu Sheng's data?"
Gui Mei replied with an unequivocal tone, "Of course, Xu Sheng seems to have come from Holy Soul Village!!"
