Chương 3241: Chapter 324 Heading to the Xingluo Empire_1

The Spirit Hall Soldier immediately became serious, "Elder Gui, please speak, I will convey your words to His Holiness the Pope, word for word!"

Gui Mei nodded slightly before explaining, "You go and tell His Holiness the Pope that in order to prevent someone from infiltrating Pope Hall and making a move on Xu Sheng, I have decided to take him away from Martial Soul City for the time being!"

"We will return to Martial Soul City as soon as the Friendship Contest is over!"

Upon hearing this, the other party rubbed his eyes in disbelief and exclaimed in shock, "What... what?? Someone is planning to infiltrate Pope Hall? Who would have the audacity to do such a thing!!"

He subconsciously ignored everything else and focused solely on the key words in the statement!

That was the possibility of someone infiltrating Pope Hall and attacking His Highness the Holy Son!

Gui Mei's forehead suddenly darkened as she suppressed the urge to slap him, and said coldly, "You, do you not understand what I'm saying? I've already said it's to prevent! Prevent!!"

"That doesn't mean someone will definitely break into Pope Hall, understand??"

The Spirit Hall Soldier swallowed hard and finally said with an embarrassed face, "I... I see, Elder Gui, I got a bit too excited!"

He had thought that some foolhardy individual was actually going to break into Pope Hall, but it turned out it was only a possibility!

Guan Yue waved her hand dismissively, "Alright, now that you understand, get out!"

The other nodded his head, and as he was about to turn and leave, Xu Sheng suddenly spoke up to interrupt, "Wait, make sure to relay one more message. Tell His Holiness the Pope to be wary of those things. They're very likely to disguise themselves in human form and infiltrate Martial Soul City!"

The soldier was taken aback and asked in confusion, "Your Highness the Holy Son, what exactly are 'those things' you're referring to??"

Although unknown, these things capable of disguising as humans felt dreadfully ominous!

Xu Sheng had no intention of explaining, and chose to skip over the topic...

"You don't need to know, just inform His Holiness the Pope, she will understand what I mean!"

The other had no choice but to not press further and replied, "I understand. Then, Your Highness the Holy Son, Elder Gui, I'll take my leave now!"

After a brief nod, he turned and left Pope Hall...

It was then that Gui Mei spoke with an extremely grave tone, "Xu Sheng, those 'things' you just mentioned... are they abyssal creatures??"

Only a very few people knew of the existence of such creatures!

Xu Sheng took a deep breath, "That's right. Hosting the Friendship Contest in Martial Soul City will undoubtedly attract a large number of Soul Master elites and civilians."

"And the strength of abyssal creatures depends on consuming other beings. Therefore, they might risk coming to Martial Soul City to hunt humans!"

Gui Mei propped up her chin, continuing to prod, "But... how do you know these abyssal creatures will come? Don't forget, one or two of them died in Martial Soul City before!"

"According to what you've said before, these abyssal creatures possess intelligence comparable to humans and wouldn't risk their lives to come here!"

After the previous battles, he had a rough understanding of the abyssal creatures!

Xu Sheng did not deny the other's skepticism but simply chuckled, "Indeed, Elder Gui, you make a valid point. But it's never a bad thing to be prepared in advance!"

Gui Mei watched her intently for a few seconds before crossing her arms and saying, "Alright then. This is something His Holiness the Pope would have been prepared for, even if you hadn't mentioned it."

Xu Sheng showed no interest in continuing the discussion and shifted the subject, "Then Elder Gui, let us leave Martial Soul City now!"

Gui Mei hesitated for a moment, "Leaving now is fine, but where do you plan to go??"

Although she agreed to accompany him, she had no idea where exactly they were supposed to go!

Xu Sheng pursed his lips, "Elder Gui, I plan to head to the Star Luo Empire!"

Gui Mei, upon hearing this, instinctively replied, "Going to the Star Luo Empire, well, that's not anything..."

All of a sudden, his eyes widened, "What did you say?? Heading to the Star Luo Empire? I think you must be out of your mind??"

"Not to mention whether you know the way to the Star Luo Empire, just the number of Soul Master experts there is far more than in the Tiandou Empire!"

"The most critical point is that the Spirit Hall Sub-halls within the Star Luo Empire are extremely rare and cannot offer any help!!"

Xu Sheng honestly replied, "On this matter, please rest assured, Elder Gui, I am very clear about the way to the Star Luo Empire!"

"As for those Soul Master experts, as long as we don't provoke them deliberately, I believe we won't face any trouble from them!"

Gui Mei scoffed at this remark, "That's so naive. Not everyone in this world is kind!!"

"Be careful when you're in the Star Luo Empire, you might end up dead without knowing how!!"

Xu Sheng's eyes flickered, "Isn't Elder Gui coming with me? Are you saying that even you are afraid to go to the Star Luo Empire?"

Gui Mei obviously saw through his ploy and sneered, "Don't try to provoke me with your words, I definitely am not going to accompany you to the Star Luo Empire!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Sheng took a step towards the other, suggesting meaningfully, "How about this? I'll tell you a secret, Elder Gui, which I'm sure you'll find interesting!"

...

Inside the Friendship Competition arena!

One could see Emperor Xue Ye looking down at the field below, speaking, "Building such a luxurious competition arena must have taken a lot of effort, hasn't it, Your Holiness?"

It had only been a few days since the decision to hold the Friendship Competition in Martial Soul City, yet such a huge arena had been constructed!

Clearly, it had required a significant amount of energy!

Bi Bidong, seated next to him, gently tapped the ground with the Purple Crystal Scepter, laughing softly, "With Emperor Xue Ye coming personally, the competition arena built cannot lose face for the royal household!!"

Having said that, she looked over at Xue Qinghe next to him, "Right, Crown Prince?"

Upon hearing this, Xue Qinghe suppressed the emotions within, remaining silent...

With Emperor Xue Ye present, it was best not to have too much contact with Bi Bidong, to avoid causing any trouble should anything be exposed!

Sensing this, Emperor Xue Ye couldn't help but look towards Xue Qinghe, asking, "Qing He, why are you so silent today?"

Even when you first arrived at Martial Soul City, there was something off...

Hearing this, Xue Qinghe, maintaining his composure, explained, "Father Emperor is conversing with the Pope, it's not right for Qing He to interrupt!"

Emperor Xue Ye nodded thoughtfully and waved his hand, "No matter, you are the Crown Prince of the Tiandou Empire, you will succeed my throne in the future, there's nothing you can't say in any situation!"

Taking a deep breath, the former replied earnestly, "Yes, Father Emperor, Qing He understands!"

Afterward, he would need to maintain the façade of Xue Qinghe as much as possible, otherwise, it might give away even larger clues!!

As for what Bi Bidong said, it was better to ignore it. After all, if the emotions swung too drastically, the soul bone would lose its effectiveness!!
