Chapter 3196 Auction House_1

The soldier swallowed hard and asked cautiously, "Elder Ju, Elder Gui, isn't it a bit too late to notify the Sub-hall now?"

These words immediately infuriated Yue Guan, "What's wrong with you, are you the Elder, or are we the Elders? All you need to do is follow orders, so why all the unnecessary talk!"

If it weren't for Ghost Charm being next to him, he would have seriously taught the other party a lesson, letting them know the price of being too talkative!!

The former dared not talk back anymore, "Yes… yes, Elder Ju, I will go to the other Sub-halls now!"

After speaking, he turned and left with his tail between his legs…

Watching his retreating figure, Yue Guan was still cursing, "Really, these guys forget their place and even dare to question our decisions!"

Ghost Charm put a hand on his shoulder, reminding him, "Alright, don't be so hot-tempered; after all, we haven't received His Holiness the Pope's permission for this matter, he's just scared!"

Yue Guan took a deep breath and forcefully suppressed his displeasure…

Then he changed the subject, "Right, Lao Gui, weren't you caught when you went to the Worship Hall before? How did you suddenly find out who created Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track??"

Ghost Charm had no intention of hiding anything, and he spoke frankly…

"Xu Sheng told me about it; he seems to know that Tang San will use Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track!"

Upon hearing this, Yue Guan exclaimed, "What?? If that guy knows, why didn't he tell us, causing you to be seriously injured by that Jin E guy!!"

If he had spoken earlier, there would have been no need to go to the Worship Hall at all!

However, the former just shook his head, "It's over now!"

"Besides, we didn't expect that the Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track would turn out to be Tang San's!"

Although there was a bit of a mishap, the outcome was good!!

Still, it was uncertain how His Holiness the Pope planned to handle this affair!

Yue Guan's lips twitched, "Lao Gui, it's easy for you to be forgiving, but if it had been me, I would definitely have…"

Before he could finish, his words were interrupted by another voice…

"Elder Gui, Elder Ju, I didn't expect to find both of you personally supervising the soldiers as they construct the site!"

Yue Guan glanced sideways and immediately recognized the newcomer as Xu Sheng!

"Xu... Xu Sheng? I thought you had left Martial Soul City? Why are you here?"

Xu Sheng casually replied, "Elder Ju must be joking. His Holiness the Pope had just recently warned me that the upper three families might send strong men to assassinate me at any moment. How could I dare leave Martial Soul City on my own!"

Yue Guan snorted coldly, "Really? You're quite aware of your situation, lad. If the strong men from the upper three families were all sent out, not just you, but even I and Lao Gui might not survive their attack!"

Especially the Hao Tian Clan, who has six or seven Hyper Douluos, their numbers comparable to the guest elders in the Worship Hall!

Ghost Charm echoed the sentiment, "Indeed, if the strong men of the upper three families joined forces, even Martial Soul Hall would have a headache!"

"You'd better restrain yourself for the time being and stay within Martial Soul City," he added.

Xu Sheng nodded slightly, "Thank you for the reminder, Elders. I will be careful!"

Then he asked again, "But who exactly has gotten Elder Ju so fired up?"

At this question, Ghost Charm couldn't help but cover his forehead…

Does Xu Sheng even listen to what he's saying?

The one who had angered Yue Guan was none other than himself, right??

Yue Guan could only force a smile and say, "No… nothing serious, just that the soldier who was sent to deliver the message was a little clueless!"

Yet deep down he cursed, "Kid, you really know how to rub salt in my wounds, I'm talking about you, the sore in my eyes!"

Xu Sheng nodded thoughtfully...

"So that's how it is, it is only right for Elder Ju to be so angry!"

Yueguan had no intention of continuing the conversation and waved his hand, "Alright, enough of that. Xu Sheng, since you're not planning to leave Martial Soul City, you should head back to Pope Hall right away"

"The friendship match tomorrow will be attended by several academies, and the Sect Master of the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect will also rush over!"

"Who knows, there may already be Soul Masters arranged around to assassinate you!"

Xu Sheng did not refuse the suggestion and continued, "Before I leave, may I ask one more question?"

Yueguan, somewhat impatiently, asked, "What question? Hurry up and say it!"

Ghost Charm, on the other hand, crossed his arms and looked on with curiosity...

Seeing their reactions, Xu Sheng did not play coy, "Do either of you elders know where I can find a soul bone?"

At the mention of this, the expressions of Ghost Charm and Yue Guan subtly changed...

The former frowned and said, "Soul bone? What do you want with that? Xu Sheng, you don't have ideas about soul bones, do you?"

Xu Sheng looked directly at them and nodded, "Yes, I feel my cultivation speed is too slow now, so I want to try absorbing other soul bones. It might help to loosen the bottleneck!"

He was at Innate Soul Power Level Ninety, and as long as he was willing to cultivate and possessed godhood, breaking through to God Rank was inevitable!

For this reason, there was no need to worry about the absorption of soul bones affecting his future development!

Moreover, with the Abyssal Emperor lurking in the shadows, he had to break through to God Rank as soon as possible!

Yueguan took a deep breath, "Xu Sheng, don't blame us for not reminding you, recklessly absorbing soul bones can affect your future development!"

"Even if you want to change them later, your cultivation level could regress!"

The other party was still currently the student of the Pope's crown and the nominal Saint Heir of Martial Soul Hall, so it was necessary to warn him!

Xu Sheng's expression did not change in the slightest, he still calmly replied, "I am well aware of this point, and I have also made preparations, so I urge Elder Ju to please tell me!"

Yueguan, unable to make up his mind, involuntarily looked towards Ghost Charm and communicated telepathically, "Lao Gui, should we tell him where to find a soul bone?"

"If he recklessly absorbs a soul bone, will the Pope punish us?"

He felt it necessary to consult the Pope before making a decision!

Ghost Charm pursed his lips, and was about to refuse Xu Sheng outright...

But remembering he still owed the other a favor, his attitude involuntarily changed!

"Xu Sheng, within Martial Soul City, besides the storages of Martial Soul Hall, only the auction house at the far east has soul bones!"

"However, the items there are not only expensive but also difficult to distinguish between genuine and fake, so you need to carefully consider!"

Xu Sheng, having received the information, had no desire to linger any longer. He immediately clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, Elder Gui. I shall take my leave now!"

Because he had traveled back in time, the layout of various areas in Martial Soul City had also changed...

Directly asking them also saved him time from searching on his own!
