The rejected Tang Xiao showed disappointment in his eyes...
Sigh, so it is?
Although he only held a glimmer of hope for the result, he didn't expect Xu Sheng to respond without any hesitation...
But it makes sense; after all, he is now the Saint Heir of the Martial Soul Hall and certainly wouldn't choose to betray for just a few words...
Thinking of this, he said, "As expected, although I didn't hold out hope, your rejection was a bit too abrupt!"
Xu Sheng just smiled, "Hehe, Tang Sect Master, I don't think you would be angry over such a matter, would you?"
Tang Xiao's demeanor returned to normal, shaking his head as he explained, "Of course not."
"Alright, back to the main topic. After you left, I engaged in another discussion with the Elders. Amidst heated arguments, we finally reached a conclusion."
"That is, the Hao Tian Clan is willing to trust you, but correspondingly, we also ask for your trust in us!"
Xu Sheng looked directly at the other party, speaking slowly, "Tang Sect Master, you must be joking. If I didn't trust you and the people of the Hao Tian Clan, I wouldn't have come here personally."
Tang Xiao was slightly taken aback, "That's true!"
With the continent's situation so tense, abyssal creatures could appear near the Hao Tian Clan at any time...
The other party was willing to come alone at such great risk, which already showed his sincerity!!
Then, looking eager, "Xu Sheng, now that we've reached an agreement, you need to explain the matter of the abyssal creatures to us in detail, such as... the hidden Abyssal Emperor behind the scenes!"
That's right, they had already learned about ordinary abyssal creatures from the Martial Soul Hall's public statements!
The only unclear part was the mastermind behind this disaster, the Abyssal Emperor!
If they could understand it better, it would be easier to deal with it later!
Xu Sheng also understood what the other party meant, nodding slightly, "Of course, no problem. But what does Tang Sect Master want to know about the Abyssal Emperor?"
Tang Xiao's expression became slightly serious, "Everything. I hope Xu Sheng, you can tell me all the information about the abyssal creatures, because the Martial Soul Hall hasn't released any useful information about it!"
Xu Sheng did not refuse. The other party just wanted to know the information about the abyssal creatures; even if they didn't ask, he planned to inform them tomorrow anyway!
Now, there's no harm in doing it a bit earlier!
"Okay, since Tang Sect Master put it that way, I'll say what I know about the abyssal creatures!"
...
For a full quarter of an hour, Xu Sheng informed Tang Xiao of all the information related to the Abyssal Emperor...
One could vaguely see the latter's expression shift from surprise to dread, and then from dread to silence...
Xu Sheng looked at the other party, asking, "Tang Sect Master, this is everything I know about the Abyssal Emperor."
"After hearing all this, what do you think?"
Tang Xiao took a deep breath, gradually regaining his composure, "Xu Sheng, according to what you just said about the Abyssal Emperor, whether it or the super divine weapon, Heaven Saint Crack Abyss Spear, in its hands is a huge threat to humans."
"Even a level 99 Ultimate Douluo is not its match!"
"Do humans really have a chance to defeat the abyssal creatures?"
Not knowing was one thing, but now that he knew, he felt pessimistic about humanity's future!
Xu Sheng sighed, "I can't say for sure, but clearly, if human powers cannot unite to jointly confront the abyssal creatures, "
"In the end, the result will certainly be the abyssal creatures replacing humans to become the overlords of this world!!"
Not receiving the expected answer, Tang Xiao couldn't help but let out a sigh of sadness...
"Sorry Xu Sheng, I was just too shocked just now."
Then, he stood up....
"I will now relay what you said to the rest of the Hao Tian Clan Elders, there shouldn't be any problem, right?"
Xu Sheng almost immediately responded, "Of course, there's no problem, but I believe, Tang Sect Master, it's best not to reveal everything!"
"Otherwise, it might damage the Hao Tian Clan's confidence in fighting against abyssal creatures."
Hearing this, Tang Xiao quickly understood the other party's intent...
"Rest assured, I'm still prudent about this matter, so I'll take my leave first."
"If Xu Sheng you have any needs, feel free to tell the Clear Sky Sect Disciples around; they will do their utmost to fulfill your requests!"
With that, he gestured briefly and turned to leave the place...
Watching the other's silhouette disappear, Xu Sheng sat in the chair and pursed his lips, "Sigh, I wonder whether revealing this information in advance is good or bad."
"However, if there were any concealment, it would not be a long-term solution."
...
A few days later, Nanali gathered a portion of the evil Soul Masters, as well as the Demon Emperor!
She glanced sidelong at the latter and said, "Demon Emperor, it's about time. We should go now and take control of the sects in Xingluo Land!"
The speechless Demon Emperor could only look at her with a very complex expression…
Since being controlled by the Ghost Emperor, the only person within the Holy Spirit Cult who remained respectful was Nanali standing before him!
Feeling the Demon Emperor's gaze, Nanali smiled, "I've always been curious, how could the Sect Hierarch control you, with your power? It shouldn't have been possible!"
"Could it be... the Sect Hierarch had planned to act against you many years ago, setting a trap in advance?"
Upon hearing this, the Demon Emperor's eyes revealed a strong killing intent, seemingly confirming Nanali's words…
Nanali's beautiful eyes sparkled for a moment, "Then, Demon Emperor, is there anything I can do to help you?"
Compared to having the Sect Hierarch control the Holy Spirit Cult, she still preferred the Demon Emperor in front of her!
With that, she released her Dark Bell Spirit, one of her Soul Rings beneath her feet lighting up…
In an instant, the dark bell emitted a faint sound, creating ripples all around, and surged toward the Demon Emperor…
The latter sensed something was amiss and instinctively used spiritual power to resist…
However, Nanali reminded, "Demon Emperor, do not resist. Doing so will allow me to enter your mind, even if your body is controlled by the Sect Hierarch!"
Her Martial Soul is the Dark Bell, and her Soul Power has been raised to the level-99 Ultimate Douluo, making this task all too easy!
The Demon Emperor hesitated for a moment, then gave up resisting…
Almost simultaneously, the surrounding scenery changed dramatically, and Nanali's phantom appeared within the Demon Emperor's mind…
She was currently bound by countless chains, unable to move…
Nanali bowed, "Demon Emperor, we finally meet again!"
The Demon Emperor squinted his eyes, speaking coldly, "Nanali, what is your purpose in doing all this!"
