Chapter 3369 Request
Poseissi, after listening, said with a complex expression, "I never expected that you would actually be the Saint Heir of Martial Soul Hall, truly unexpected!"
He had no particular fondness for Martial Soul Hall, and even felt a hint of hostility.
After all, that incident from the past was etched in his memory!
However, for some reason, she harbored no prejudice against Xu Sheng, the "Saint Heir".
The composure of the former was also beyond Xu Sheng's expectations, "The Great Priest heard that I am the Saint Heir of Martial Soul Hall, yet doesn't seem that angry. My Hyper Douluo bodyguard was afraid of being pursued and killed upon revealing his identity in your presence."
Poseissi casually explained, "I indeed have no affection for Martial Soul Hall, but that is under the premise of those who invade, such as the spies lurking within Sea God's Island…"
Of course, the most important thing was that the former unhesitatingly handed over the Boundless Universe Shield to him, which indicated he wasn't a petty and greedy person—at least his character wasn't an issue!
Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to believe a single word he said!
Xu Sheng again praised, "Worthy of being the Great Priest, such breadth of mind is unparalleled among ordinary people!"
But Poseissi was clearly not impressed with flattery, interrupting, "Save your praise, let's talk about why you informed me of the abyssal creatures; how do you hope I can assist you?"
Since the other party informed him, there must be some aspect in which he hoped for assistance!
Xu Sheng laid out his thoughts directly, "I hope the Great Priest can let me take a look at the Divine Artifact, Sea God's Trident, and if possible, even participate in Sea God's Nine Quests!!"
Upon hearing this, Poseissi naturally couldn't agree lightly and couldn't help but question, "Xu Sheng, these matters don't seem to have any connection with your purpose of coming here, do they?"
He was here to exterminate abyssal creatures, wasn't he? Why did he want to see Sea God's Trident and participate in Sea God's Nine Quests?
Xu Sheng's gaze grew more serious, "The Sea God's Trident contains quite an amount of Divine Power, which might help restore my original strength."
"As for Sea God's Nine Quests… I cannot explain the reason for now, but the Great Priest can rest assured, it won't have any impact on Sea God's Island!"
"If you detect anything amiss along the way, you are fully entitled to intervene!"
Currently, his body was mostly filled with Soul Power, and Divine Power was extremely scarce…
To think of eradicating abyssal creatures with such strength was nothing short of daydreaming!
Poseissi immediately fell into thought…
It seemed he was considering the credibility of Xu Sheng's words…
Quickly, she made up her mind…
"Fine, I can agree to your request."
Even the Boundless Universe Shield, an item comparable to a Divine Artifact, wasn't coveted by the former, let alone Sea God's Trident!
Furthermore, if he didn't receive the recognition of the Sea God, even if he had ideas about Sea God's Trident, it would all be in vain.
Xu Sheng immediately expressed his gratitude with a bow, "Thank you, Great Priest!"
As for whether he could use Sea God's Trident, he already knew the answer long before he ascended to the Divine Realm.
After a pause, he took one more sweeping glance, "Then I will not disturb you any further, farewell!"
After sharing so much information, Poseissi certainly needed time to digest it, and there was no need for him to continue staying there.
In the blink of an eye, his entire figure vanished…
Watching him leave, Poseissi exclaimed in astonishment, "Such formidable spiritual power, actually able to elude my perception! Probably without that Boundless Universe Shield, as long as he doesn't wish to be discovered, he could still remain hidden!"
This spiritual power, perhaps even stronger than my own!
After shaking her head, she then addressed the outside of the palace, "Alright, you must have heard the conversation just now, haven't you?"
Her conversation with Xu Sheng hadn't sealed off this space, so as long as someone wished, they could entirely use spiritual power to eavesdrop!
As expected, the maid guarding the outside of the palace suddenly appeared, replying, "Yes, Great Priest, please forgive me for eavesdropping without permission!"
Poseissi didn't mind at all, "No matter, I intended to let you know anyway!"
Having the former leave was simply to prevent others besides her from overhearing!
The maid let out a sigh of relief, "Thank you, Great Priest!"
Poseissi's gaze was fixed firmly on the former, "So, in your opinion, how credible are Xu Sheng's words?"
The maid hesitated, "Replying to the Great Priest, in my view, it should be about fifty-fifty. Since his arrival on Sea God's Island, apart from participating in the Soul Fighting arena, he hasn't done anything to harm Sea God's Island."
"However, since he is from the Martial Soul Hall, even if he is from the future, we must be on guard!"
Although she was answering, her eyes remained fixed on the body of the abyssal creature on the ground...
How offensive Xu Sheng is to have left without taking this corpse with him!
Leaving it here is nothing but contaminating the palace!
Poseissi pursed his lips, not surprised by her answer, "Hmm... I think the same!"
"As long as Xu Sheng has no improper desires towards Sea God's Island, we should try our best to accommodate his requests."
"After all, he has brought the Vast Sea Cosmos Shield, which contains the Sea God's Divine Power!"
Having said that, he took out the Vast Sea Cosmos Shield...
Before being released, it was nothing more than a small box!
...
After leaving, Xu Sheng was clearly in a much better mood...
"Things have been easier than expected, it seems I've made the right bet!"
It was indeed reckless to reveal his identity as the Saint Heir of the Martial Soul Hall, but this made it more likely to gain Poseissi's trust!
"Xu Sheng!"
Just then, a dark shadow emerged behind him, and the sneaky Gui Mei walked out from within...
He used his spiritual power to scan the surroundings, and only after confirming that there was no one around did he relax...
Xu Sheng was puzzled, "Elder Gui, what are you doing?"
His demeanor was like that of someone avoiding an enemy...
Gui Mei snapped irritably, "Of course, I'm here waiting for you, as I had no idea whether you would come out of the palace once you went in!"
He certainly wouldn't admit that he was concerned about Xu Sheng's safety!
Xu Sheng, noticing some clues, felt a bit touched at heart...
The other party, clearly fearful of Great Priest Poseissi, still chose to wait outside the palace for him...
This was very rare!
Xu Sheng, somewhat helpless, "Elder Gui, since I promised you, naturally I would not break my word."
Gui Mei was noncommittal, "Naturally that's good, but how did it go? Did you convince that Poseissi?"
"Or is it that coming out alive was already your greatest effort?"
Xu Sheng's mouth twitched, "Elder Gui, you really think too badly of the Great Priest, she didn't make things difficult for me,"
"Moreover, she agreed to all the requests I made!"
"Oh right, she also knows that we are both from the Martial Soul Hall"
Gui Mei was taken aback, "What? Xu Sheng, if you want to die, don't drag me into it, you actually let slip our information in just a few words!!"
