Chapter 1891: Chapter 1891: Innate Soul Master
"What a pity," Senior Luoo shook his head.
"What pity?" Bai Changtian asked in confusion.
Senior Luoo said solemnly, "The Poison Dao easily unsettles the heart."
"Those who cultivate poison often have eccentric personalities and suffer from residual effects."
"Yet this boy, despite practicing such an earth-defying poison skill and facing such a terrifying backlash, can still maintain a clear mind."
"He appears as if nothing is amiss, truly remarkable."
"His wits and talent must be unmatched in this world today."
Senior Luoo took a deep breath, "Among the young talented I’ve seen, only one can compare to him."
"That Sword Dao Genius, Xiao..." Bai Changtian blurted out but stopped as he noticed Senior Luoo’s icy gaze.
Senior Luoo withdrew his gaze and continued, "But as I’ve also said, Xiao Xun’s body has been severely damaged."
"His internal organs and limbs have all been invaded by lethal toxins."
"If I’m not mistaken, when this boy faced the backlash of the poison skills, it must have been an overwhelming poison erupting from within, sweeping his entire body, making him appear less than human, like a monster."
"Let’s not speak of whether his appearance can be restored."
"Let’s just speak of his life."
"His life?" Bai Changtian looked even more puzzled.
"Exactly." Senior Luoo said solemnly, "If this boy continues to practice this poison skill, with his current speed of cultivation, I can guarantee that he will not survive more than a year."
"What?" Bai Changtian was startled.
"But." Senior Luoo continued, "If this boy wants to save himself, this poison skill is his only and last chance."
"So I said, in this world, no one can save him, the only one who can save him is himself."
"Everything depends on his own fate."
Bai Changtian’s face changed drastically upon hearing this.
He knew very well what kind of person his master was.
If his master said there was no way, then perhaps there really was no way in this world.
His master’s judgments have never been wrong, his insight is like a god’s.
It’s not that his master is so intelligent, but because his master has long deciphered countless mysteries of heaven and earth.
Even as his first disciple, accompanying him for countless years, he still doesn’t know how many martial paths his master controls, perhaps even more than the countless stars in the sky.
Just like the matters of this world can never escape the laws of heaven and earth.
Very few matters in this world can be hidden from his master.
Thus, even though his master has always been hands-off, ignoring hall affairs, yet for countless years, the Black Demon Hall remains the Black Demon Hall, not to be underestimated by anyone.
Thus, even when his master established the Black Cloud Academy outside, and the martial arts teachers he recruited were people with countless enemies, often involving the major forces of the Central Region and even hidden forces.
But, no one dared to trouble the teachers of Black Cloud Academy.
Because his master was not willing to allow it, nor does he permit it.
"Then..." Bai Changtian seemed to recall something, exclaimed.
"If I’m not mistaken, master, you do not covet the treasures of the Eighteen Dangerous Lands."
"You let that boy take it and then exchange it for the Ten Thousand Poison Fruit, just as a test for that boy."
"Since it’s a test, it proves master you intend to accept him as a disciple or even as a successor of the Main Hall."
"But if that boy’s life is not guaranteed, what meaning do these tests have?"
Senior Luoo sneered at these words.
"It is indeed a test, though only a test."
"I have no expectations for him."
"If he dies, then he dies."
"If he manages to come back and pleases me, that’s another matter."
"Alright." Senior Luoo’s face was indifferent, "I’ve answered all that needed to be asked."
"Yes, master." Bai Changtian nodded and gave a salute.
Senior Luoo turned and left.
After a few steps, he suddenly paused.
"You seem quite interested in that boy."
"In the past, upon seeing me, you mostly drank by yourself, even pretended not to see."
"But today, you spoke a lot more."
Bai Changtian chuckled, "Indeed, he is a fascinating fellow."
"Just from the few exchanges you had with him?" Senior Luoo asked coldly.
"No." Bai Changtian shook his head, "Master, you didn’t witness his conversation with the Poison Robe."
"That boy, hmm, how should I put it?" Bai Changtian seemed at a loss for words.
"In short, very interesting."
"Suit yourself." Senior Luoo shook his head and completely left.
Behind him, Bai Changtian laughed lightly, "Seems like master is quite interested in him too."
Senior Luoo’s figure paused slightly but no longer spoke and completely left.
Bai Changtian remained standing, only a knowing smile on his face.
He indeed had already forgotten how many years it’s been since his master couldn’t help but get angry.
Because his master always acted upon his anger, was indifferent when he desired.
But resisting anger, the last time was unknown how many millennia ago, and that time was directed at him.
The difference between anger and resisting anger lies in suppressing the anger even slightly in the latter.
And most importantly, his master actually said things like "How come, the dignified Black Robe Xiao Xun, is so narrow-minded?" akin to banter.
Though, it’s just slightly so.
Perhaps, it is his master’s interest in Xiao Xun?
Or perhaps, that boy’s pitiful appearance and bleak aura invoke sympathy and concern?
Bai Changtian didn’t know.
And today, he discussing so much with Xiao Xun, even about past events, and asking his master so many questions.
Perhaps, it was also due to interest?
Or maybe it’s because Xiao Xun also once made his master couldn’t help but get angry?
Bai Changtian didn’t know either.
But he simply wanted to chat a bit more with Xiao Xun.
Perhaps, that is the personal charm of Xiao Xun?
Bai Changtian shrugged, shook his head, his figure flashed and disappeared out of thin air.
...
In the room of the Master of the Main Hall.
Senior Luoo’s figure appeared out of thin air.
At this moment, two elders were already seated on either side.
One, with white whiskers, yet his gaze was extraordinarily sharp.
Sitting there still, yet he was like a serene lake, incredibly calm.
The other was slightly shorter, but in his eyes, there gleamed a shrewd light.
"How was it?" The Heavenly Mechanism Hall Master asked first.
"Not bad." Senior Luoo nodded slightly.
The Heavenly Mechanism Hall Master suddenly frowned, "But why do I feel like that fellow’s figure resembles that annoying little thief?"
"Who?" The elder with white whiskers asked.
"Who else?" The Heavenly Mechanism Hall Master said with displeasure, "Naturally, that Xiao Yi little thief."
"Oh, and I always feel that Yi Xiao, the villain from the Demon Hunting Hall, Flame Hall, and Medicine Venerate Hall, his figure also seems similar."
"These two boys, even seeing their backs infuriates this old man greatly."
"It couldn’t be them." Senior Luoo shook his head, his gaze only on the elder with white whiskers.
"Why?" Asked the elder with white whiskers. fгeewebnovёl.com
Senior Luoo said solemnly, "Twin Martial Souls, one black and one purple, both at their peak, that boy is a natural Soul Master."
"Does your Soul Hall want this successor?"
