Chapter 1275 Evil Soul Master? Wrong, It Should Be Ancestor!_1

The following day, various discussions resonated throughout Shrek Academy...

A male student whispered, "Did you all hear about it? It's said that the newcomer Xu Sheng actively refused the invitation from Sea God's Pavilion."

A female student next to him exclaimed with a surprised face, "Is that for real? Not just anyone can enter Sea God's Pavilion; each Elder has at least reached the Titled Douluo level!"

"This must be fake. How could the Elders of Sea God's Pavilion possibly invite a Soul Master to join? Let's not spread rumors."

"Exactly, how could such a thing happen? The teacher called Xu Sheng is indeed strong, but not to the extent that the Elders would invite him to join!"

And as these students gossiped, the recently gathered Elders of the Sea God Pavilion showed extremely unpleasant expressions. Elder Cai ground his teeth and said, "Who let this information out? Why do all the students know about it?"

It was hard enough for Sea God's Pavilion to extend an invitation to someone, but to be rejected...

Such news getting out could only cause them to lose face...

Feng Wu Yu shook his head, "I don't know either. Could it be that Xu Sheng himself spread the word?"

Long Yeyue nodded in thought, "It's possible! After all, aside from the Elders of Sea God Pavilion, only he himself knew about this matter!"

Tang Yinmeng shook her head, "That seems unlikely. Last night, Xu Sheng was resting inside Sea God's Pavilion!"

Turbid World coughed twice with a somewhat guilty conscience, "Perhaps some student passed by and happened to overhear?"

Last night, having resolved the conflict with his disciple Wu Changkong and being in high spirits, he blurted out the matter regarding Xu Sheng to Wu Changkong and Shen Yi...

It might well have been the latter who spread it!

While everyone was pondering, Yun Ming, radiating scholarly charm with hands clasped behind his back, walked over and asked, "What are you all discussing?"

Upon seeing Yun Ming's sudden appearance, Elder Cai and the others greeted him respectfully, "Pavilion Master!"

Ya Li said indignantly, "Pavilion Master, the whole academy is now discussing how we invited that Xu Sheng to join Sea God's Pavilion, and how he declined!"

Long Yeyue also chimed in saying, "Indeed, where does this leave the dignity of Sea God's Pavilion?"

Yun Ming couldn't help but reveal a faint smile, "Elders, there's no need to worry, no student will believe such a thing!"

His conversation with Xu Sheng last night,

...

Elsewhere, Wu Changkong, who had spent a sleepless night, sought out Xu Sheng early in the morning, his bloodshot eyes intently staring at the latter...

He began, "Teacher Xu, I have already brought you to Shrek Academy. Isn't it time you kept your promise to tell me the method to resurrect Long Bing?"

Xu Sheng chuckled, "Teacher Wu, resurrecting the deceased is not so simple. There's no need to rush!"

However, after waiting for half a day and hearing only this, Wu Changkong's face darkened, and his tone became considerably colder, "Teacher Xu, are you playing me for a fool?"

All he had done was for Long Bing, and yet Xu Sheng dared to fob him off like this!!

Seeing this, Xu Sheng reassured him saying, "Teacher Wu, don't overthink it. To resurrect Long Bing, we must first create a body for her, and we also need a large amount of Immortal Herbs and medicines."

Once he said this, Wu Changkong's face relaxed slightly...

If he thought about it, it indeed seemed reasonable. Resurrecting the dead was an act against nature, so how could it be as simple as a few words?

He pursed his thin lips, offering an apologetic expression, "I was out of line just now."

Xu Sheng replied with an indifferent expression, "It's inconsequential."

After a pause, he then turned his gaze towards a hidden direction, smiling, "However, Teacher Shen, who's been eavesdropping from the shadows, perhaps it's time for you to come out?"

This statement made Wu Changkong frown deeply as he too glanced over, "Hmm??"

As expected, after a few seconds of silence, a figure walked out from behind the concealed wall, and it was none other than Shen Yi, who had been eavesdropping...

Her dazzling, captivating eyes were fixed on Teacher Wu as she mustered the courage to ask, "Brother... Brother, if I heard correctly, you were discussing... resurrecting Long Bing?"

She naturally knew that Long Bing was Teacher Wu's lover, who had died at the hands of an evil Soul Master a long time ago!

Seeing her appearance, Wu Changkong asked with confusion, "Shen Yi, why are you here?"

Ignoring his attempt to change the subject, Shen Yi stared at Wu Changkong again and insisted, "Brother, you might as well answer my question first, were you discussing the resurrection of Long Bing?"

The latter was silent for a long while before he finally said, "Yes, just as you heard!"

Since Shen Yi was now aware of it, it was unlikely that it could remain concealed, especially since she was his junior sister and killing her to silence her was out of the question!

After receiving his personal confirmation, Shen Yi's gaze turned toward Xu Sheng...

If she had not misheard, it was her brother who had asked this Xu Sheng to resurrect Long Bing!

But resurrecting the dead was an act against the heavens, how could anyone other than the gods accomplish such a feat?

Or could it be that Xu Sheng's true identity was that of an evil Soul Master!!!

Was everything he did merely to gain control over Wu Changkong?

With this thought, her beautiful eyes revealed a complex emotion, and her impression of Xu Sheng began to diminish...

Perceiving the change in Shen Yi's expression, Xu Sheng asked with a smile, "Teacher Shen, have you misunderstood something about me?"

Shen Yi's beautiful eyes hardened and she snapped, "Who exactly are you? Why are you deceiving my brother?"

Wu Changkong said unhappily, "Shen Yi!"

He, too, had initially not believed that Xu Sheng could have the power to resurrect the dead, but the vague figure and familiar voice he had encountered were undoubtedly Long Bing!

Without having witnessed that moment themselves, they simply could not understand his feelings!

Seeing that Wu Changkong was still bewitched, Shen Yi rebuked with frustration, "Brother, you've surely been deceived by this evil Soul Master masquerading as a teacher. How can the dead be brought back to life, especially since Long Bing has been gone for so long?"

She recalled why Long Bing had been attacked by an evil Soul Master in the first place.

It was because Long Bing's real identity was that of an evil Soul Master, and moreover, she was the daughter of the Dark Hummingbird, one of the Four Great Kings of the Holy Spirit Cult!

Therefore, she did not want Wu Changkong to be deceived by an evil Soul Master again!

This statement only piqued Xu Sheng's interest further as he propped up his chin and murmured, "Evil Soul Master..."

If one were to really consider the title of an evil Soul Master, he seemed to be the first to reach the Titled Douluo level!

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say he was the ancestor of all evil Soul Masters!

Wu Changkong said expressionlessly, "Shen Yi, I am well aware of what I am doing."

But in Shen Yi's eyes, it was a completely different story...

"Brother has been bewitched to this extent, it seems I must deal with that Xu Sheng!"

With that thought, she hesitated no further in unleashing her Martial Soul, Bashful Grass!

Six Soul Rings swiftly rose from beneath her feet...

Yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black!
