Chapter 3123: Divergence_1

Seeing Gu Rong and Chen Xin enter the great hall, Ning Fengzhi, who was seated in the main seat, was the first to speak, "Uncle Sword, Uncle Bone, you've arrived!"

Both of them nodded slightly and then walked to their respective seats to sit down…

It was only then that Gu Rong began to speak, "Feng Zhi, I've heard from the messaging disciples that this discussion of yours is related to Xu Sheng??"

As a prodigy with Innate Soul Power Level Ninety, the name Xu Sheng was deeply etched in his mind!

Chen Xin also looked in their direction, obviously very interested in the matter…

Ning Fengzhi did not deny it but instead answered truthfully, "Indeed, the matters I am about to discuss are indeed related to Xu Sheng!"

Once affirmed, Gu Rong pressed on, "Could it be that Xu Sheng is considering joining our Seven Treasures Glaze Sect?"

Ning Fengzhi frowned and decisively dismissed the idea, "Uncle Bone, at this crucial moment, let's not joke around. You should know that such a thing is impossible!"

"Although our Seven Treasures Glaze Sect is one of the upper three families, we have no advantage compared to the Martial Soul Hall!"

"How could a genius like Xu Sheng not understand this?"

Gu Rong scratched his head in an awkward manner. "I was just trying to lighten the mood, in case what you're about to say is too grim, you know?"

Every time they mentioned Xu Sheng, Feng Zhi's expression became extremely solemn, which clearly indicated that the matter was not simple!

Chen Xin cut in with impatience, "Alright, old bonehead, stop causing trouble and focus on the important matter."

Ning Fengzhi nodded and then continued, "The reason I've brought you here is to discuss whether or not to share the intelligence related to Xu Sheng with the other sects."

Chen Xin's pupils constricted. "Feng Zhi, are you referring to the Hao Tian Clan and the Thunderclap Tyrant Dragon Sect?"

These two sects were also among the top three, standing on equal footing with the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect!

Although they appeared to have no dealings on the surface, in reality, they were closely allied!

Ning Fengzhi affirmed, "Exactly, under the guidance of Martial Soul Hall, a genius like Xu Sheng has a high likelihood of breaking through to become an Ultimate Douluo and even surpass Hundredth Level Soul Power in the future!!"

"At that time, Martial Soul Hall will become the true dominator. The presence of the upper three families will be like nothing before it, powerless to resist."

A look of dissatisfaction appeared on Gu Rong's face. "Feng Zhi, aren't you blowing this out of proportion? Xu Sheng is just one person after all; he shouldn't be enough to affect the very existence of the upper three families!"

This statement of his virtually dismissed the strength of the Soul Masters of the upper three families!

Ning Fengzhi shook his head and sighed, "Uncle Bone, you're underestimating Xu Sheng. According to conventional wisdom, the innate strength of a Soul Master's soul power determines the speed of future cultivation!"

"Innate full soul power is already extraordinarily fast, but what about Innate Level Ninety Soul Power? How terrifying would that be??"

Hearing this, Gu Rong evidently wavered but still maintained his previous stance!

Ning Fengzhi pursed his lips and turned his gaze to Chen Xin, inquiring, "Uncle Sword, when you last infiltrated the Pope Hall, what was Xu Sheng's soul power rank?"

Chen Xin propped up his chin, pondering, "If I remember correctly, it should be Level Ninety-Two!"

"Right, there's no mistake in that!"

Upon receiving the answer, Ning Fengzhi continued, "As we all know, Soul Masters awaken their Martial Soul at the age of six, and Xu Sheng is naturally no exception!"

"But this means that he has risen from Level Ninety Soul Power to Level Ninety-Two in just one or two years, a cultivation speed so frighteningly rapid!"

"For other Titled Douluos, they would need at least ten, twenty years. He has shortened it by tenfold!!"

"Even with that, Uncle Bone, do you still not think he poses a threat to the survival of the upper three families?"

Upon hearing all this, Gu Rong was somewhat dumbstruck…

If before he had only been wavering, now he actually felt a huge envy for Xu Sheng's talent!!

After a long while, he took a deep breath and said with a voice filled with extreme wariness, "Feng Zhi, you're right. If this Xu Sheng grows up, he will definitely be a catastrophic disaster for the upper three families!!"

Only then did Chen Xin jokingly said, "Old Bone, it seems your brain isn't working very well if you've only just realized this!"

This was something he himself had considered the moment he met Xu Sheng!!

Gu Rong could not tolerate his mockery and retorted, "Your brain is the one that's not working, but I admit, I did indeed underestimate Xu Sheng's potential!!"

Ning Fengzhi tapped on the table lightly with his finger and then said, "Now that Uncle Bone, you also changed your previous view, let's return to the original issue!"

"Should we inform Hao Tian Clan and Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect of Xu Sheng's situation?!"

Gu Rong gave his opinion without a second thought…

"These two sects and the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect are in the same boat. Without them, we simply cannot stand on an equal footing with Martial Soul Hall!"

"Therefore, I think the situation should be spread out to make earlier preparations!"

To eliminate a talent like Xu Sheng, they had to do it before he had the chance to grow!

If they waited too long, it would not be so simple later on!

Ning Fengzhi's gaze flickered for a moment, "Hmm, Uncle Bone and I share the same opinion!"

"Uncle Sword, what do you think?"

Expecting the same response, Chen Xin decisively vetoed, "No!"

Ning Fengzhi paused for a moment, then unflinchingly asked, "Uncle Sword, your reasons?"

Chen Xin gave his reasons unhurriedly…

"Xu Sheng is Martial Soul Hall's deepest hidden card. If not for Ning Rongrong entering by chance, no other power would have discovered his existence!"

"At the same time, this also shows that Xu Sheng is highly valued by the Martial Soul Hall, and there must be many strong protectors around him, possibly even those fellows from the Worship Hall!"

"Once we leak the information to the other two great sects, with their way of doing things, they are likely to attempt assassination. If they succeed, that's well and good, but if they fail, our Seven Treasures Glaze Sect will bear the wrath of the Martial Soul Hall!"

Even with himself and Chen Xin standing guard, they would definitely not be a match for today's Martial Soul Hall, and it was highly likely to lead to ruin!

Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong exchanged glances, obviously finding some reason in the former's words…

After all, the only power aware of Xu Sheng was the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect!

Chen Xin closed his eyes, his tone becoming somewhat aged, "For the safety of our sect, let's not mention Xu Sheng's existence for now!"

And so, the hall fell into a long silence…

Finally, it was Gu Rong who couldn't help but speak up to break the silence…

"Feng Zhi, how exactly to proceed, you, as the Sect Master, should make the decision!"

"Regardless of which choice it is, Chen Xin and I will swear to protect the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect to the death. Martial Soul Hall wants to obliterate us, it won't be so simple!!"
