Chapter 1274: Yun Ming's Tremor! (Please Subscribe)_1

Seeing the expression on Turbid World's face, Elder Cai seemed to have guessed what he was about to say and took the initiative to speak, "Elder Turbid World, because you were dueling with this Teacher Xu, it was only now that we informed you!"

Turbid World pursed his lips, his gaze turned towards Yun Ming who was seated above, and he asked, "Pavilion Master, do you also think there is no problem with this?"

Upon hearing this, Yun Ming just smiled faintly and said softly, "Mm, although he has not yet reached the level of a Hyper Douluo, with such a terrifying talent, it's only a matter of time!"

"There's nothing inappropriate about offering him the position of Elder in advance!"

Lately, the evil Soul Masters have become increasingly rampant, and Shrek Academy is doing its utmost to cultivate stronger Soul Masters!

Turbid World took a deep breath and closed his eyes, "Since even you, Pavilion Master, have agreed, then I have no objections!"

Although surprised, with Xu Sheng's talent, it was worth making an exception for him by the Sea God's Pavilion!

Only then did Yun Ming turn his gaze back to Xu Sheng and said in a gentle tone, "So, what is your decision, Teacher Xu? Will you join Sea God's Pavilion?"

Ya Li blinked her Beautiful Eyes and said, "Kid, don't hesitate to agree. By joining Sea God's Pavilion, Shrek Academy will provide you with the most precious cultivation resources to the greatest extent possible!"

Feng Wu Yu also spoke, "Mm! But it is under the condition that when Shrek Academy is in danger, you must stand up and out! This is the duty of a member of Sea God's Pavilion!"

Lan Muzi also said in a weighty tone, "If in the future you betray Shrek Academy, we will show no mercy!"

After these words were spoken, everyone's gaze was fixed on Xu Sheng, waiting for his response...

However, Xu Sheng just shook his head and said in an even tone, "Thank you for your kind intentions, Elders, but allow me to decline. The position of Elder in the Sea God's Pavilion should be left to others who are more suitable."

He had no obligation to protect Shrek Academy; the reason he chose to join was just to better look after Tang Wulin and the others...

As for the cultivation resources that Shrek Academy promised to provide, it was nothing more than a joke...

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the Elders of Sea God's Pavilion turned ugly...

They had all extended such an invitation, and yet this young man still chose to refuse, effectively slapping everyone in the face!

Thus, the looks directed at Xu Sheng were tinged with displeasure...

Sensing that something was off with the atmosphere of the entire pavilion, Yun Ming, who was the Pavilion Master of Sea God's Pavilion, only chuckled twice and said in a light and breezy tone, "Elders, please go out first. I would like to have a word with him in private!"

To be able to remain composed in the face of an invitation from Sea God's Pavilion, perhaps this Xu Sheng is not as simple as imagined!

Hearing these words, the other Elders of Sea God's Pavilion exchanged glances and slowly stood up, taking a deep and long look at Xu Sheng before leaving...

And the last one to rise, Turbid World, also patted Xu Sheng on the shoulder before stepping out of the pavilion...

After everyone had left, only Yun Ming and Xu Sheng remained within the entire Sea God's Pavilion!

It might have been an illusion, but it felt as though a staggering aura was radiating from both of them, clashing with each other with no reservations...

It was as if whoever showed weakness first in this private conversation would fall into a disadvantage...

Looking at Xu Sheng, who matched his own strength, Yun Ming became even more curious...

Just as he was about to speak, Xu Sheng asked first, "Pavilion Master Yun, is there anything else you wish to say? Or perhaps you intend to force me to join Sea God's Pavilion?"

The latter half of his statement was clearly tinged with a hint of jest...

Yun Ming was not annoyed; he replied in an elegant and affable manner, "Of course not. Whether you join Sea God's Pavilion is entirely up to you. But now that it's just the two of us, you wouldn't mind having a chat alone, would you?"

Xu Sheng's dark eyes glanced at the sky and he nodded, "Hmm, it's just as well. I've finished what I had to do, so sitting here for a while sounds good."

Yun Ming was at a loss for words...

This was the Sea God's Pavilion, not somewhere just anyone could sit!

With this thought, his eyes suddenly brightened, "Well then, permit me to ask bluntly, Teacher Xu, how exactly did you obtain those three hundred-thousand-year soul rings?"

As if afraid that Xu Sheng might misunderstand, he added another sentence...

"Don't worry, I'm just purely curious. After all, hundred-thousand-year soul beasts nowadays are even rarer than a Hyper Douluo!"

After speaking, he just looked at Xu Sheng...

Seeing this, Xu Sheng could only feign a sigh of lament, "It's a long story. When I was ascending to Soul King, I happened to encounter a hundred-thousand-year soul beast and accidentally killed it..."

Even Yun Ming couldn't help but lose his composure after hearing this seemingly serious, yet utterly implausible tale...

He awkwardly responded, "If Teacher Xu doesn't wish to speak of it, so be it. Everyone has their secrets!"

At this moment, he felt as though he wasn't conversing with a young person, but rather a wily old monster with far deeper schemes!

He couldn't extract even a sliver of useful information!

Most importantly, the moment he harbored any murderous thoughts toward him, his heart would throb uncontrollably...

It was as if the Martial Soul within him was warning him not to proceed!

Whether it was a premonition or an illusion, it wasn't likely to be without cause...

...

Meanwhile, still kneeling on the ground and lost in thought, Wu Changkong suddenly heard a delicate female voice...

"Senior brother, why are you still kneeling here!"

The one who could call Wu Changkong in such a way was naturally Shen Yi...

Wu Changkong instantly awoke and, turning to look, he was startled to see Shen Yi and the expressionless Turbid World not far away...

He swallowed and said, "Shen Yi... and, Teacher..."

Upon hearing this, Turbid World just glanced at him coldly, "Don't call me Teacher, I can't bear those two words!"

Wu Changkong's eyes reddened slightly as he bent down once more and respectfully kowtowed...

He declared firmly, "Once a teacher, always a teacher. No matter when, you will always be my teacher."

Seeing this poignant scene, Shen Yi wanted to say something to comfort him but found herself at a loss for words...

Turbid World took a deep breath and coldly snorted again, "Humph! When you left, why didn't you remember that I was your teacher?"

Teacher Wu's body trembled, and he gritted his teeth, "Teacher, back then..."

"Enough!" Before he could finish, Turbid World had already turned away...

If one observed carefully, they would notice that his eyes also flickered with a deep unwillingness to let go...

After clenching his teeth tightly, he nonetheless let them relax...

He said indifferently, "If you want to keep kneeling there, then continue!"

Then, he stepped away and left...

Shen Yi said joyfully, "Senior brother, get up, Teacher has forgiven you! I told you he has a sharp tongue but a soft heart."

Though many years had passed, it did not affect the immense significance Wu Changkong held in her heart!

Looking at the retreating figure of Turbid World, a hint of relief finally appeared on Wu Changkong's face. Standing up, he followed Shen Yi and caught up...
