"You're sure that you're intervening in the feud between me and the Haotian Sect today, and the one behind you has no objections?" Su Wen asked in a condensed voice.
He guessed that this Void Marshal might be a guardian of a certain god, just like QianDao Liu and the Sea God Marshal, Poseidon.
After all, the intense faith power did not belong to the Void Marshal himself, which meant that the Void Marshal was related to a god.
Ninety-seventh rank, and it was impossible that it was just an ordinary connection.
Upon hearing Su Wen's inquiry, the Void Marshal narrowed his eyes, staring intently at Su Wen's illusory image, as if trying to see whether Su Wen knew something.
The others also looked puzzled upon hearing Su Wen's words.
Except for Xue Qinghe, whose gaze flickered, seeming to understand the meaning behind Su Wen's words, the others thought that the Void Marshal had an even more powerful existence behind him.
And above the ninety-seventh rank, there were only the ninety-eighth and ninety-ninth ranks of the Absolute Marshal.
Ning Fengji's heart sank.
He whispered to Su Wen, "Xiao Wen, what's going on? Do you know this Void Marshal? Is there a more powerful existence behind him?"
Su Wen responded with his spiritual power.
"Ning Shu, don't worry, I'll explain the situation to you after this is over."
Upon hearing Su Wen's calm tone, Ning Fengji let out a sigh of relief.
At the same time, he had a multitude of thoughts emerging in his mind.
It was clear that on this continent, there existed a Void Marshal, and it seemed that there were more.
This exceeded Ning Fengji's expectations and made him feel that the continent was somewhat unfamiliar.
In fact, based on the knowledge he had learned from the Seven Treasures Glass Sect, he knew that there were many hidden old monsters on the continent.
After all, at the level of the Super Marshal, the lifespan of a Soul Master would generally be very long, and after resolving the troubles of the first half of their life, they would often choose to hide and cultivate in seclusion.
This seemed to have become a norm.
And for the ninety-ninth rank of the Absolute Marshal, their lifespan would be at least three hundred years.
If they had extraordinary talent, they would usually enter a state of seclusion within a hundred years, which meant that for the next two hundred years, there would be no news of them, but this powerful existence was real.
And who knew when they would leave this world.
Ning Fengji knew that the strong on the continent were not as simple as they seemed, but he had not expected to encounter one directly.
The Haotian Sect had actually made contact with a ninety-seventh rank Spatial Attribute Title Marshal.
This was not good news.
However, the good news was that this Void Marshal was cautious.
Otherwise, the Void Marshal, who had been invited by the Haotian Sect, should not have been hiding in the void until now, only revealing himself after Tang Xiao reminded him.
"Young man, your talent is astonishing, but you've yet to grow up, so don't speak too presumptuously," the Void Marshal said in a condensed voice.
His voice was somewhat cold.
Although he was cautious of Su Wen, he had reached the level of the Super Marshal over a hundred years ago, and his strength was formidable, so being spoken to in such an impudent manner by a teenager like Su Wen made him lose face.
Moreover, he was only cautious of Su Wen, not afraid of him.
"Are you going to make an enemy of the entire academy?" Su Wen asked, narrowing his eyes.
As soon as Su Wen's words fell, the Void Marshal's scalp felt numb, and he had a bad premonition.
Su Wen's words could currently represent the entire academy.
The importance of a leader's words in a powerful faction was self-evident.
Even in the Soul Master Palace, which had existed for a long time, the words of the Pope, Bi Bi Dong, had a significant impact on the entire palace.
Let alone Su Wen, who had single-handedly established the academy?
He was the founder!
The absolute spiritual leader.
So, when Su Wen spoke, it immediately caused a collision of countless faiths.
The Void Marshal felt the seal on his forehead emit a scorching heat, and a message was transmitted into his mind.
His expression turned solemn.
"Kid, what you said earlier was a bit too much, but I've had dealings with the Haotian Sect's ancestor, Tang Chen, and I owe him a favor, so I'll make a promise to you: if you spare Tang Xiao, I'll do three things for you."
Su Wen narrowed his eyes.
"I refuse."
The Void Marshal's face turned ugly again.
After saying all that, Su Wen still didn't give him any face?
However, Su Wen's next words made the Void Marshal's expression slightly better.
"Senior, I won't spare Tang Xiao, but if you want to repay the favor to Tang Chen, I can spare a direct descendant of the Haotian Sect, because, according to reason, he should be Tang Chen's most orthodox successor, whereas Tang Xiao is not."
"Oh?"
Upon hearing the comparison between Tang San and Tang Xiao, the Void Marshal weighed his thoughts and found that it was reasonable.
Tang San was more orthodox than Tang Xiao.
Even though Tang Xiao was the Sect Master of the Haotian Sect, Tang San's father, Tang Hao, was the true successor of Tang Chen, and as Tang Hao's son, Tang San could be said to be the strongest talent in the same generation of the Haotian Sect and would be the next successor of the Haotian Marshal.
"Su Wen, don't stir up trouble by saying you'll spare Tang San, you're just unable to find him," Tang Xiao sneered, interrupting the conversation between Su Wen and the Void Marshal.
"Tang Xiao, the academy is all over the continent, and no matter where Tang San is hiding, there will always be a lead, and I think the Void Marshal should know that I won't be unable to find Tang San," Su Wen said, his gaze cold and mocking.
The Soul Masters of the Haotian Sect really weren't very clever.
The Void Marshal needed a way out.
Couldn't they see? He was cautious of Su Wen, or rather, he had been warned by the god behind him not to conflict with Su Wen.
Now, he needed a way out.
Whether I don't take action against Tang San because I'm giving face to Su Wen or because I'm unable to find him, what's important?
It's not important.
At the very least, the Void Marshal now believed that if Su Wen wanted to find Tang San, he would be able to do so.
Tang Xiao's heart sank.
He wasn't stupid.
As the Sect Master, he had a keen sense of the situation, and after feeling that something was off, he realized that the Void Marshal seemed reluctant to help him.
"Why does this academy, which is just a newly established faction, have such great deterrent power?"
Tang Xiao couldn't understand.
He didn't believe it was because of the academy's configuration, which, although luxurious, was still a new force with an immature setup, except for the three honorary elders from the Seven Treasures Glass Sect, the other elders in the academy were only ordinary Title Marshals.
For a Super Marshal, this shouldn't have much of an impact.
Meanwhile, Su Wen felt a mix of relief and excitement.
He seemed to have touched upon some information about a godly inheritance, and if he could communicate with the Void Marshal, who knows what kind of opportunity might arise.
