Chapter 315: Divine Artifact_1
Tang Sect!
In the warehouse!
Looking at the densely packed items before her, Guo Xiaoxu grabbed her head in frustration, hopping up and down anxiously...
"Damn, did the Sect Leader really confirm he put it here? Why have I been searching for so long with still no sight of it!"
After receiving the token from Liang Xiaoyu, she immediately entered the warehouse, and had been searching for a long time...
However, she still hadn't found it!
This inevitably made her feel somewhat irritable...
The Tang Sect disciple in charge of surveillance couldn't help but speak up, "Um... Hall Master Guo, what exactly are you looking for? Tell me, and I can help you search for it!"
Guo Xiaoxu glanced at him impatiently, "Don't ask what you shouldn't. Just do your own job!!"
"And, stop calling me Hall Master Guo, the current Battle Soul Hall Master is Ye Xinglan!!"
The former couldn't help but swallow and then stood silently in his original spot...
Seeing that the other party remained unmoved, Guo Xiaoxu frowned and said, "What are you still doing here? Didn't I tell you to go do your own thing?"
This guy, does he think that after I was removed from the position of Hall Master, I lost my authority?
Don't forget, even without the title of Hall Master, I am still a Red Level powerhouse of the Tang Sect!
The Tang Sect disciple felt somewhat wronged and hurriedly explained, "No... no, Guo, Guo Predecessor, my duty is to guard the warehouse!"
"You are not in the position of Hall Master, and would normally not have the right to enter here, but since you have Hall Master Liang's token, so..."
Even though his words were somewhat convoluted, Guo Xiaoxu still comprehended the underlying message...
"I get it now, your meaning is... you're here to watch me??"
The former was startled and immediately changed his attitude, "Predecessor Guo, if you find I'm in the way, I'll leave right now!!"
Guo Xiaoxu sighed and waved her hand, "No need, just stay here, after all, it is your duty!"
Although it was uncomfortable being watched, it wasn't nice to trouble the other person!
After pausing for a moment, "However... I do want to ask you something!"
Upon hearing this, the expression of the Tang Sect disciple suddenly brightened, "Predecessor Guo, feel free to ask anything, there is nothing in this warehouse that I do not know about!"
If he could resolve the other party's trouble, he might very well receive a reward!
Guo Xiaoxu didn't waste words and asked very directly, "It's like this, have you seen any relics left by the previous Sect Leader!"
The former was stunned for a moment, "Relics left by the previous Sect Leader??"
"There are many things left behind, Predecessor Guo, can you be more specific?"
There were many items left by the previous Sect Leader scattered all over the warehouse, and he didn't know which one she needed!!
Guo Xiaoxu pondered for a moment before responding, "Hmm... as I recall, this item seemed to be in the form of a helmet!"
The Tang Sect disciple said in surprise, "A helmet-like object? Please allow me to think about it!"
About a dozen seconds later, Guo Xiaoxu pressed again, "What, you don't know? Then forget it."
Suddenly, the Tang Sect disciple seemed to remember something, joyfully saying, "I have it... the previous Sect Leader did indeed leave behind an object in the shape of a helmet, but since it was quite plain, it was placed in a very inconspicuous spot. I don't know if it has been damaged."
Guo Xiaoxu immediately became excited, "Really? Quickly, take me there, that object is extremely important!!"
Although she didn't know what the 'quite plain' meant in his words!
But as a Divine Artifact used by the previous Sect Leader, how could it be ordinary!!
The former nodded slightly, "Understood, Predecessor Guo, please follow me, that object is some distance from here!"
After saying that, he took the lead...
Guo Xiaoxu didn't say anything else, following closely behind, continuously scanning the surroundings with her spiritual power...
After walking for several hundred meters, the Tang Sect disciple finally came to a stop...
Turning around, he extended his hand towards the front...
"Hall Master Guo, the item you're looking for is right there!"
Upon hearing this, Guo Xiaoxu couldn't wait to look in that direction...
In the blink of an eye, he was dumbfounded...
He swallowed hard, desperately suppressing the emotions within him, and questioned word by word, "Are you sure this is what the previous Sect Leader left behind?"
Truth be told, he personally found it hard to believe!
The Tang Sect disciple appeared somewhat embarrassed, but still explained patiently, "Yes, Senior Guo, this is the only item that matches your description!"
It had already looked like this when it was taken into possession!
Receiving a positive response, Guo Xiaoxu then stepped forward...
Looking at the dull gray helmet before him, he couldn't help but ridicule in his mind, "This helmet looks like a piece of scrap metal; could it really be a Divine Artifact used by the previous Sect Leader?"
Forget it, let's try infusing it with Soul Power!
With that said, he picked it up and began to slowly inject Soul Power...
After a long while, there was no reaction whatsoever!
He shook his head in disappointment, "Eh... it seems that the Divine Artifact left by the previous Sect Leader is not this object, injecting it with Soul Power yielded no response!"
Just as he was about to put it down again, the helmet suddenly burst forth with a strong aura...
Guo Xiaoxu immediately sensed where this aura came from and blurted out, "This is... the aura of the previous Sect Leader, no mistake, this is that Divine Artifact!!"
Only the Divine Artifacts used by the previous Sect Leader would retain an aura!
Clearly, he had just been shortsighted!
The Tang Sect disciple next to him exclaimed, "Senior Guo, the helmet just emitted a blinding light; what's going on?"
In his memory, it was just an ordinary helmet, yet it displayed such a phenomenon!
Hearing this, Guo Xiaoxu glanced sideways at him, "This helmet was used by the previous Sect Leader, so it's not surprising that such a thing happened!"
He then added, "Alright, I'll be taking this item away!"
"Besides, under no circumstances should you mention what just happened to anyone else, understand?"
Although somewhat puzzled, the Tang Sect disciple responded truthfully...
"I understand, Senior Guo! I absolutely won't tell anyone about this!!"
Guo Xiaoxu nodded in satisfaction, "Hmm, very good!"
After speaking, he prepared to leave the warehouse...
The disciple suddenly stopped him, "Senior Guo, please wait, the token you gave me..."
Guo Xiaoxu also realized and spoke calmly, "You can hand that token over to Hall Master Liang when the time comes, it originally belonged to him, I was just borrowing it!"
He had no time for such errands; next thing was to figure out what exactly this Divine Artifact was!!
Without getting to the bottom of it, he couldn't rashly give it to Tang Wulin!!
This was also instructed by Zang Xin, the Sect Leader himself!!
