Chapter 2069: Observation (Please Subscribe)_1
Xu Sheng, upon hearing this, stared intently at him, "Not clear? But you just didn't seem like someone who knows nothing."
Under the oppressive gaze, the man felt as if all the secrets in his heart had been thoroughly seen through...
He immediately replied with a bitter expression, "Senior, I am just a low-level employee, I dare not speculate wildly, please don't make it difficult for me!"
Xu Sheng withdrew his gaze and said indifferently, "Just kidding with you, continue leading the way."
It seemed that the Life Force and Destruction Force left behind by those seven Old Demons had indeed fallen into the hands of the federation...
It was just unknown whether, with humanity's current technology, they could be analyzed...
The man showed a relieved expression and nodded, "Yes, senior."
With that, he led Xu Sheng towards the very center of the federation...
It was an exceedingly large building, roughly estimated to be several hundred meters high, with a round arc shape. The federation members in charge of guarding this place had actually reached the Soul Emperor level!
The man stepped forward, had a brief exchange with them...
After a moment, Xu Sheng entered the building under their complex and astonished gazes...
...
The man bowed his body and said, "Senior, please rest here for now. Someone has already informed the higher-ups of the federation, and they will surely arrive soon!"
"I shall not stay here!"
With that said, he turned and left the place...
This was an important location for the federation, not a place where a member of his level could stay!
Xu Sheng didn't make a fuss and calmly sat on the sofa in the lobby...
After waiting a few minutes, a man with his hands behind his back and a proud look on his face from the Spirit Pagoda's higher ranks walked up to Xu Sheng.
He sat down opposite Xu Sheng, boldly sizing him up before he asked, "May I ask if you are Elder Xu from the Sea God Pavilion?"
Xu Sheng responded with a smile, "Indeed."
The man narrowed his eyes and continued to question, "As far as I know, only those who have reached the Hyper Douluo level and have made significant contributions to the academy can join the Sea God Pavilion. May I ask how Elder Xu joined?"
He didn't doubt the former's identity; he was just curious about how someone as young as Xu Sheng could join the Sea God Pavilion and whether he was worth respecting.
Xu Sheng shrugged and said, "I haven't really contributed anything significant to the academy if I had to mention something, it would be slaying one of the Four Kings, the Dark Hummingbird!"
The man's pupils abruptly tightened as he exclaimed, "You slew the Dark Hummingbird??"
That was a Hyper Douluo with a soul power rank of level 98. To slay such a being, one would need to be at least on the same level if not an Ultimate Douluo!
Xu Sheng saw a hint of shock in his eyes and joked, "What, it seems you don't believe me?"
The man shook his head, his expression becoming serious, "No... It's not that. I'm just shocked because Elder Xu's appearance really doesn't match his strength!"
He continued, "Of course, these things are trivial. What's important is, what business does Elder Xu have by coming all the way to our federation?"
The words he spoke were now considerably more respectful...
Xu Sheng stated, word by word, "Before that, I want to ask a question, has the federation come across the powers of Life Force and Destruction Force?"
Suddenly, the man's look towards Xu Sheng was filled with wariness...
This was a secret of the federation, how could this Elder of the Sea God Pavilion know about it!
He immediately counter-questioned, "May I ask Elder Xu, where did you learn of this?"
After this affair was over, a thorough sweep through the entire federation was inevitable!
There might even be spies from Shrek Academy among the federation's upper levels!
Xu Sheng responded unhurriedly, "Nobody told me; rather, these two forces were left behind by me!"
After he spoke, he stretched out his palm, where pale green and deep black energies converged together…
The man opposite "thumped" to his feet, his face full of disbelief as he said, "This… this is… Life Force and Destruction Force!!"
Moreover, the most terrifying aspect was that the two energies released by the other party were much denser than those possessed by the federation!
After snapping out of his shock, he sat back down, but he was clearly somewhat uneasy…
"I… I've lost my composure! I hadn't expected these two terrifying forces to come from Elder Xu!"
He paused, then pressed, "Then your visit this time is for…"
Xu Sheng's eyes hardened, "To retrieve these two forces, they are not for humans to wield!"
The man first froze, then with a trembling voice said, "Not… not for humans to research, but Elder Xu, aren't you also…"
Could it be that the other party's true identity…
Xu Sheng did not deny it, chuckling lightly, "Correct, just as you imagined, I am not a person from the Lower Realm but rather a so-called God!"
Upon receiving the affirmative answer, the man tried to rise but found his limbs immobilized as if they were bound, rendering him entirely unable to move…
Cold sweat dripped down from his forehead, drop by drop…
Knowing such a critical secret of the other party, could he still live?
Xu Sheng saw through his thoughts and, propping up his chin, said, "No need to be nervous, once I leave, the memory of this event will be erased from your mind!"
"But before that, I'm going to need you to tell me everything you know!"
Knowing he could not resist, the man took a deep breath, "I… I understand."
And so, he spilled everything he knew…
After hearing all this, Xu Sheng murmured thoughtfully, "I see, so it was stolen and absorbed into someone's body after all…"
Just as he had sensed that day!
Seeing this, the man spoke again, "Afterward, we successfully captured the person and tried to extract those two powers, but all attempts ended in failure."
"If you truly are a God, Elder Xu, then take back the Life Force and Destruction Force, at least… don't let them fall into the human world!"
Xu Sheng pursed his lips, "I will."
Suddenly, the man before him trembled…
Then his eyes cleared as he said, "Hm? Elder Xu, what were we talking about before?"
He had no memory whatsoever…
Xu Sheng replied without betraying any emotion, "Didn't you say you would show me the federation's soul weapons?"
The man furrowed his brow, "Did… did I?"
He didn't remember saying those words…
However… merely observing soul weapons wasn't anything important!
"If that's the case, then Elder Xu should stay in the federation. The newly produced soul weapons can't be seen in a short period of time!"
Xu Sheng naturally wouldn't refuse, speaking softly, "Then I shall respectfully comply!"
It was the perfect opportunity to locate the man who had absorbed the Life Force and Destruction Force!
