Chapter 178: Reunion with Qian Dao Liu! (Please Subscribe)_1

```

Just as Xu Sheng happened to pass by, he saw the six Elders emerge from the Pope Hall and slowly began to speak, "Elders, wait a moment."

The six Elders of the Hall of Martial Souls, who were still discussing, slowly turned around upon hearing Xu Sheng's voice...

One of the guest elders took the lead and said, "Your Highness the Holy Son."

The other Elders of the Hall of Martial Souls nodded their heads at Xu Sheng in greeting...

With a puzzled tone, Xu Sheng asked, "Did you just visit our teacher? Can you tell me what it's about?"

The Red-robed Guardian glanced at the Elder beside him, then at the curious Xu Sheng, hesitated, and said with a troubled face, "Your Highness the Holy Son, this matter is difficult to discuss!"

This was something the Great Offeror Qian Dao Liu had said they could let the Pope know, but as for His Highness the Holy Son, they were unsure whether they could reveal it...

If this caused any trouble, they couldn't bear the punishment of Qian Dao Liu!

Xu Sheng's gaze fell upon Citun and Snake Spear, seeing that their faces also flickered with hesitation, probably pondering whether or not to inform him...

The appearance of these Elders made Xu Sheng even more curious, and he inquired, "What is it, a very secretive matter?"

If it was indeed very secretive, then he would rather not ask...

The Red-robed Guardian bit his lip, and then with a stern face, he said, "Please, Your Highness the Holy Son, do not divulge this. Tomorrow, we will accompany the Grand Elder to Giant Sword Mountain to give the Holy Daughter a chance to inherit the Angelic God Position!"

Xu Sheng nodded thoughtfully, "I see!"

It was no wonder they were so cautious about Qian Renxue's Angelic inheritance...

Wait a moment, his own Nine-Hearted Begonia, no, now it should be called the Netherworld Ghostvine, could use a Soul Fusion Skill with Qian Renxue's Seraph. Going together might trigger something unexpected!

With that in mind, Xu Sheng felt it was necessary for him to also make a trip to Giant Sword Mountain...

If he just had this deep red mark on his forehead without any divine trials and power enhancement, wouldn't he be just for show?

Therefore, Xu Sheng said with a smile, "Elders, how about bringing one more person along?"

He was just joking. If he wanted to go, he would probably still have to speak to that fellow Qian Dao Liu...

Upon hearing this, the Red-robed Guardian and others all wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads, "Your Highness the Holy Son, please stop joking with us. We do not have that authority!"

Citun spoke slowly, "Your Highness the Holy Son, you should discuss this with the Grand Elder. We, a few Elders, don't have the privilege."

Snake Spear agreed earnestly, "That's right, and considering Your Highness the Holy Son's last encounter with the Grand Elder, it shouldn't be difficult to get permission to join."

Despite their seemingly authoritative exterior, within the Elder Hall, including several guest elders, they all had to obey Gold Crocodile Douluo and Qian Dao Liu!

Xu Sheng glanced at them and said with a smile, "Just kidding with you! I'll go talk to the Grand Elder in the Elder Hall then!"

The next moment, his entire body burst out with terrifying speed and he disappeared from view...

After Xu Sheng vanished, the Red-robed Guardian seemed to realize something was wrong. He furrowed his brow and said, "Wait! If the Grand Elder asks how Xu Sheng came to know this, what do we do then?"

An Elder nearby suddenly exclaimed in shock, "Oh no! That's indeed a big problem!!"

Another Elder urged anxiously, "Well then, what are we waiting for? Hurry up and chase after him!!"

Instantly, the six released their Martial Souls and accelerated with soul skills...

They rushed off in the direction where Xu Sheng had departed with the utmost speed...

...

After a while, following the route from his last memory, Xu Sheng quickly arrived outside the Elder Hall...

Sensing the six figures frantically approaching from behind, Xu Sheng did not rush to enter the Elder Hall, but stood still on the spot waiting for them...

These six Elders from the Hall of Martial Souls were already severely injured, and moreover, their wounds had yet to heal…

```

At this moment, having just unleashed his Soul Power, he soon found himself gasping for breath...

Six elders approached Xu Sheng, panting heavily, "Huff... Huff..."

The Red-robed Guardian spoke up to stop him, "Your Highness the Holy Son, please wait a moment!"

Confusion spread across Xu Sheng's face, "Hmm? Does the Elder Hall really dislike welcoming me that much?"

The Red-robed Guardian quickly waved his hands, "No... That's not it! If the Great Elder finds out it was us who told you this news!..."

The faces of the other five elders also showed traces of worry...

In their memory, Great Offeror Qiandaoliu took every matter very seriously, and once someone defied him...

The consequences were terrifying!

Xu Sheng's lips twitched a few times, "Is this what you're worried about?"

The several elders, looking somewhat stunned, responded, "Ah."

Xu Sheng shook his head and, without further care for them, directly walked into the Elder Hall...

Since there were several Elders of the Hall of Martial Souls behind him, Xu Sheng was not stopped by the guards...

After a few seconds of struggle, the elders followed him with ashen faces...

As soon as Xu Sheng set foot into the Elder Hall, he was locked by a strong spiritual power—it was none other than the level 98 Gold Crocodile Douluo...

Gold Crocodile Douluo respectfully inquired with a solemn face, "Your Highness the Holy Son! Are you here to see the Great Elder? Shall I announce your arrival?"

Xu Sheng nodded, "Yes, please do. Thank you."

Then the other six guest elders and elders walked in, and the Gold Crocodile Douluo just gave them an icy stare...

He then silently turned and went to inform Qiandaoliu...

...

Qiandaoliu, stripped of his golden armor, was sitting in his chair, facing Xu Sheng with a frozen demeanor, "Xu Sheng? What brings you to me this time?"

Xu Sheng, sitting opposite Qiandaoliu, fixed his gaze on him and calmly said, "Great Elder, Ren Xue should be in the Elder Hall, right?"

A hint of chill flashed across Qiandaoliu's face, and then his gaze intensified upon Xu Sheng, "Oh? How do you know Xiao Xue is here?"

This matter should still be known only to the people of the Elder Hall.

Could it be that someone from the Elder Hall told Xu Sheng?

Xu Sheng's mouth curved, pretending to speak indifferently, "I visited the Tiandou Empire before."

It seems that Qian Renxue should indeed be here! Yet, with his own spiritual power, he couldn't even sense her presence...

Only then did Qiandaoliu's icy eyes gleam, calmly stating, "I see. But whether Xiao Xue is here or not, it shouldn't be of concern to you, should it?"

Although Xu Sheng was capable of using the Soul Fusion Skill with Xiao Xue, he never sensed any other relationship between the two...

Upon hearing this, Xu Sheng pursed his thin lips, indifferently saying, "Naturally, it concerns me. Ren Xue is the only one who can use the Martial Soul Fusion Skill with me; both emotionally and rationally, it warrants my attention!"

Meanwhile, Qiandaoliu seemed to have seen through everything, silently sneering in his heart...

It seems that the relationship between his granddaughter and this Xu Sheng wasn't as he had thought...

A man of level 97, whose strength could even rival his own, would he come here for such an utterly unconvincing reason?

Qiandaoliu's body burst out with a terrifying presence, his gaze fastened on Xu Sheng as he spoke, "Is that really so?"
