Chapter 3010 Meng Yiran_1

In Pope Hall!

Watching Yueguan suddenly appear before her, Bi Bidong spoke first without waiting for him to say anything, her tone icy, "Yueguan, didn't I ask you to bring Xu Sheng here? Why hasn't he arrived yet!"

"Could it be, you plan to defy my orders!"

Yueguan's heart trembled, and he quickly explained, "Your Holiness, please calm your anger, I haven't the slightest intention of defying you!!"

After a pause, he continued, "I indeed went to the academy to look for Xu Sheng, but I did not sense his presence!!"

Bi Bidong's beautiful eyes flickered and she pressed, "What do you mean by that?? Has Xu Sheng left the Pope Hall on his own accord??"

Yueguan nodded, his tone becoming somewhat lowered, "Yes, and based on my conjecture, he has not just left the Pope Hall, but he likely has already left Martial Soul City as well!!"

Her expression finally softened a bit, "What? He left Martial Soul City? Do you know when this happened?"

Leaving Martial Soul City without my permission—could Xu Sheng possibly be thinking of breaking his original promise??

Yueguan replied truthfully, "According to what Evil Moon and the others said, it should have been yesterday. He probably hasn't been gone from Martial Soul City for long!"

"Your Holiness, what do you think we should do about this matter??"

Since Xu Sheng has left Martial Soul City, according to his plan, his position as the Saint Heir should be revoked!

Bi Bidong stood up from the Pope's Chair, and then looked directly at Yueguan, saying word by word, "Yueguan, today's matter, do not tell anyone."

Upon hearing these words, Yueguan felt somewhat perplexed and couldn't help questioning, "Your Holiness, why do this? Xu Sheng has already left Martial Soul City, which means he has betrayed us!"

"Logically speaking, his status as Saint Heir should be revoked, and he should be wanted across the Continent!!"

But Bi Bidong merely answered indifferently, "I have not ruled out doing so, but the result will make Martial Soul Hall the object of ridicule!!"

"Moreover, Xu Sheng has only left Martial Soul City for one day, which does not mean he has betrayed us!!"

"But…"

Yueguan wanted to say something more, but was ruthlessly interrupted by the other...

"Enough, if Xu Sheng has not returned to Martial Soul City within three days, then revoke his status as the Saint Heir!!"

"Before that, do not let any word of this leak out!!"

Although Yueguan felt dissatisfied, he did not dare to show it, "Yes, Your Holiness!!"

However, he soon spoke again, "But there is another matter that I must inform Your Holiness of!"

"Just a few days ago, Lao Gui led the members of the Sub-hall and successfully tracked down the abyssal creatures, engaging them in battle!"

Bi Bidong showed a hint of surprise, "Oh? These abyssal creatures can disguise themselves as humans; it must have taken Ghost Charm considerable effort to find them."

Yueguan nodded slightly, "Your Holiness, please permit me to go and support Lao Gui because there is more than one abyssal creature, and relying on just him, it may be difficult to handle!!"

After pondering for a moment, Bi Bidong immediately replied, "Good, go and support Ghost Charm now, but make sure to capture those abyssal creatures alive!!"

Only by capturing the abyssal creatures alive can we obtain useful information!

His expression brightened, "Thank you, Your Holiness, I shall take my leave now!"

As he prepared to turn and leave, Bi Bidong suddenly stopped him...

"Wait! Yueguan, be very careful, Xu Sheng once said that these abyssal creatures each have different abilities, if you are not vigilant, you may end up dead!"

Being the most devoted subordinates, Ghost Charm and Yueguan—she did not want to see them perish at the hands of the abyssal creatures!!

Yueguan clenched his fists, "Thank you for your concern, Your Holiness, but please rest assured, we will definitely bring the abyssal creatures back!!"

Even if the abyssal creatures weren't necessarily alive!!

"Leaving without saying goodbye, I wonder if the Martial Soul Hall has already revoked my position as the Saint Heir,"

Xu Sheng, who was traveling at the highest speed, couldn't help but murmur softly…

Just at this moment, the surrounding area suddenly emitted a seductive aura…

Xu Sheng immediately halted his steps and narrowed his eyes, "Is this the scent released by a soul beast to attract its own kind? Could it be that someone in the Aquipeia Forest is hunting a soul beast?"

With that thought, he immediately changed direction and headed towards the source of the scent…

Upon his arrival, he was met with the following scene…

He saw a little girl holding a snake-shaped staff, her gaze locked intently on a plant-based soul beast that was on the brink of death…

Then she turned to the couple standing next to her, "Grandfather, Grandmother, I want this soul beast as my first soul ring!!"

The elder man stroked his beard and reminded, "Yiran, this soul beast isn't suitable for you, choose another one!"

The old lady nodded and added, "Yes, the age of this soul beast is too great, it will be difficult for you to absorb it!"

Although it wouldn't pose a life-threatening risk, the time it would take was exceedingly long!

Especially in a dangerous area like the Aquipeia Forest, even a mighty Soul Emperor like him must not be careless!!

Meng Yiran pouted stubbornly, "No, I want this soul beast as my first soul ring, I won't accept any other!!"

The old lady showed a troubled expression and looked at the elder, "Old man, what do you think…"

The latter sighed, "Alright, if Yiran really wants this soul beast for her soul ring, then so be it!"

After speaking, he passed over a small knife…

Once Meng Yiran took it, she mercilessly chopped down on the root of the soul beast…

After its death, a yellow Centennial Soul Ring emerged from its body…

Subsequently, she sat down slowly, drew the soul ring close to herself, and began to absorb it…

Seeing this, the old lady spoke again, "This plant-based soul beast will emit a scent that attracts its kind upon death, let's guard Yiran here!"

The elder nodded in agreement, "Mm!"

Xu Sheng seemed to remember something and pondered, "If I'm not mistaken, they are Long Gong Meng Shu and Snake Granny Chao Tianxiang, and that little girl in the middle should be Meng Yiran!"

Who would have thought that he would encounter them here!

However, Meng Shu seemed to have sensed something and shouted coldly, "Who's there in the dark, come out!??"

Chao Tianxiang, upon hearing this, became cautious as well, quietly releasing her own soul rings…

Xu Sheng, upon hearing the shout, chose not to continue hiding and stepped out from the shadows…

Seeing his appearance, Meng Shu and Chao Tianxiang breathed a sigh of relief…

Fortunately, it was just a child. If it had been someone with ill intent, protecting Meng Yiran while fighting would have put them at a disadvantage!

With this in mind, the former couldn't help but interrogate, "Who are you? Why are you here??"
