Chapter 2888: Departure_1

Ning Fengzhi heard these words and nodded slightly, expressing slight regret, "If that's the case, then let it be."

It was not a wise choice to draw the attention of the Spirit Hall Soldiers just to see Xu Sheng's Martial Soul!

Then, he changed the subject and said, "Speaking of which, Xu Sheng, besides Uncle Sword, there's another person who often mentions your name to me!"

Xu Sheng expressed surprise, "Oh? May Sect Master Ning reveal his information?"

Ning Fengzhi had no intention of hiding anything and explained, "Actually, you should know him too. It's His Highness, Crown Prince Xue Qinghe of the Tiandou Empire!"

Xu Sheng's eyebrows furrowed slightly as he thought to himself, "Ren Xue?"

How did Ning Fengzhi come to hear about him from her?

Ning Fengzhi, noticing the change in Xu Sheng's expression, narrowed his eyes and said, "Xu Sheng, why do you look like this? Could it be that there is some conflict between you and Qing He?"

Perhaps Qing He's relationship with him was not as deep as I had imagined!

Xu Sheng shook his head and denied, "No, it's not like that. I am just curious about why Sect Master Ning would talk to the Crown Prince about me; before this, we were not acquainted!"

Only then did Ning Fengzhi purse his lips slightly and continued, "That's true, but some time ago, I was invited by Emperor Xue Ye and visited the Tiandou Empire Palace!"

"Moreover, I took Qing He as my disciple, and your affairs were mentioned during our casual conversations," he added.

Xu Sheng pondered thoughtfully, "I see. However, congratulations to Sect Master Ning, the Crown Prince has excellent talent. Taking him as your disciple will not disappoint you!"

It seemed Ren Xue had mentioned him unintentionally!

And Ning Fengzhi took him seriously, which is why he was full of curiosity about him!

Ning Fengzhi nodded, saying with an earnest tone, "Qing He is indeed outstanding, but compared to you, Xu Sheng, he still falls short."

Through the previous conversation, he felt as if he was speaking with someone of his own age, no, someone even more mature!

Every word spoken was well thought out, leaving no room for error ...

And Chen Xin, who had not interjected, though he kept a cold expression on his face ...

His heart was anything but calm!

Because the Xu Sheng in front of him had received such high praise from Ning Fengzhi!

To think that for Xue Qinghe, he only gave a comment of excellence!

Without a doubt, once the other grew up, he would be a figure that looked down upon the whole continent!

Perhaps, the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect should consider forming a good relationship with him!

With this thought, he took a deep breath to say something ...

But Xu Sheng spoke up first, interrupting, "Sect Master Ning, Uncle Sword, do you have any more questions? If not, it's time for me to leave."

"If I continue to stay here, I'm afraid the Pope Hall will send people to look for me!"

He didn't want to waste too much time on Ning Fengzhi now!

Having such a lengthy conversation was already unexpected!

Ning Fengzhi also realized something and agreed, "Indeed, we've delayed you for quite a while."

Xu Sheng replied without any concern, "What are you saying, Sect Master Ning? It's my honor to converse with you."

Ning Fengzhi then exchanged glances with Chen Xin and said again, "Well then, Xu Sheng, if you have time, I hope you can visit the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect. I'm sure Qing He would also be eager to meet you!"

Hearing this, Xu Sheng readily agreed, "Alright, if I have the opportunity, I will definitely visit the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect."

Ning Fengzhi did not say anything more, "Well then, we'll wait for your arrival at the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect!"

"Uncle Sword, let's return to the sect!"

"Alright," Chen Xin replied, and the next second, the two figures disappeared from sight ...

Shortly after, he felt a familiar aura approaching ...

Glancing sideways, it was none other than Bi Bidong, holding the Purple Crystal Scepter!

Upon learning that Xu Sheng had been kept behind by Ning Fengzhi and another, she had personally rushed over...

Of course, Ghost Charm and Yue Guan were also hiding in the shadows...

Xu Sheng reverently said, "Your Holiness, the Pope!"

Bi Bidong's purple eyes glowed as she questioned, "Have they already left?"

With an unchanged expression, Xu Sheng replied, "Yes, Your Holiness, Sect Master Ning and Sword Douluo just left not long ago!"

Hearing this, the former revealed a suspicious look, "They didn't do anything to you?"

She always felt there was something dubious about his words...

Xu Sheng looked directly at Bi Bidong and calmly said, "Sect Master Ning and Sword Douluo didn't do anything to me, we merely had a brief conversation!"

"However, I think it won't be possible to conceal the matter of my soul power rank!"

Bi Bidong showed not the slightest surprise, "Hmm, I expected as much. Sword Douluo must have revealed it when you sparred with him inside the Pope Hall!"

The existence of Xu Sheng had already attracted the attention of two powers!

The Seven Treasures Glaze Sect and the Heaven Dou Royal Academy!

However, compared to the former, the latter was not aware of Xu Sheng's specific circumstances!

After a pause, she then said, "But did Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin not talk to you about anything else?"

A simple conversation ought not to have taken that long!

Xu Sheng knew he had to say something to dispel the former's worries...

He truthfully answered, "They also invited me to visit the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect, but I refused!"

Upon hearing this, Bi Bidong nodded in satisfaction, "Very well, it seems you still remember our deal and did not break the rules."

Xu Sheng was momentarily startled, "A deal, huh? Right, after all, Your Holiness, you do not trust me now!"

Bi Bidong gave him a deep look, emphasizing, "No, I have never trusted you!"

Having said this, she withdrew her gaze and said indifferently, "Return to the Pope Hall earlier!"

Without waiting for a reply, she then stepped towards the direction of the Pope Hall...

Seeing this, Xu Sheng couldn't help but sigh...

Just as he was about to follow, he suddenly encountered obstruction from Ghost Charm and Yue Guan...

"Chrysanthemum Douluo, Ghost Douluo, do you also doubt the words I just said?"

Yueguan shook his head, "No, we've had quite a few dealings with that Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin, and we know they indeed wouldn't do anything to you!"

"If I'm not mistaken, it must be because last time you revealed your talent of Innate Soul Power Level Ninety, which caught their attention,"

Ghost Charm nodded in agreement, "Exactly, if even we could guess it, the Pope certainly could too!"

Xu Sheng pressed further, "Then what is this about??"

Taking a deep breath, Yueguan warned, "We just want to remind you, do not try to beguile Her Holiness the Pope with those words!"

They would never believe that this Xu Sheng was once Bi Bidong's disciple!!

Ghost Charm also added, "Correct, also a reminder, we are always watching from the shadows; if we discover you have other motives, we will show no mercy!!"
