Chapter 1657: Chapter 1657: Conversation in the Hall

The Master of the Demon Hunting Main Hall finished speaking.

The Master of the Medicine Venerate Hall nodded, ”Such talent is indeed remarkable.”

”And speaking of temperament,” the Demon Hunting Hall Master was full of satisfaction in his eyes.

”You all saw it just now.”

The Demon Hunting Main Hall Master glanced at the two of them.

The Master of the Medicine Venerate Hall slightly frowned, saying nothing.

”That’s not necessarily the case.” The Flame Hall Master shook his head.

”I saw his arrogance and disdain.”

”Moreover, this boy is somewhat peculiar, wearing a mask so you can’t see his face, and even his aura is imperceptible.”

”Unable to sense his aura fluctuations, we have no idea if his words are true or if it’s all deceit.”

The Medicine Venerate Hall Master nodded, ”Originally, summoning Yi Xiao here specifically was to see him.”

”In front of the three of us, even a Heavenly Talent or a Monster wouldn’t have the chance to lie.”

”Yet his aura completely disappears, even the three of us can’t sense even a hint of it, making it impossible to judge the truth of his words.”

”He must have some treasures on him.” The Demon Hunting Main Hall Master also slightly wrinkled his brow.

The treasure on Xiao Yi is naturally the Ghost Mask.

Its ability to conceal aura is so strong that even the three legends of the present can’t do anything about it.

The Medicine Venerate Hall Master nodded, ”Everyone has secrets. Moreover, according to the information from our Three Halls, this boy has no backing whatsoever.”

”He has to rely on his own strength to venture into various dangerous places, eradicating evil cultivators and their divisions, which is akin to walking through dragon lairs and tiger dens.”

”Thus, his extreme caution, concealing his aura and hiding his face, is understandable.”

”Ridiculous.” The Flame Hall Master flicked the sleeves of his fiery red robe, like a cloud of fire flashing by.

”If he has no guilty conscience, why would he hide his aura and face even upon coming here?”

”We three, as the Masters of the Three Halls, would we harm him?”

”This here, is the Demon Hunting Hall Main Hall, who dares to cause trouble here? How could there be any danger?”

”No.” The Demon Hunting Main Hall Master shook his head, ”This, on the contrary, is one of the things I admire most about him.”

”Being so young, yet able to maintain extreme caution at all times, in any place.”

”This is something even within the hall’s Demon Hunters, few can achieve.”

”As for safety, is there anywhere in this world that is absolutely safe? What you can do is just to do your best with your strength.”

”Indeed.” The Medicine Venerate Hall Master nodded, ”This boy holds the identities of the Three Halls, a Fire Control Demon, a refining genius, a Demon Hunting prodigy.”

”If he weren’t cautious enough, how could he have grown to become today’s Purple Flame Yi Xiao, who shocks the Central Region?”

”You should know that the greater the talent, the easier it is to fall.”

”Even so,” the Flame Hall Master said solemnly, ”but he ultimately conceals his aura and hides his face.”

”If everything about him is feigned, if his temperament is deceitful, if he comes to the Main Hall with ulterior motives, then the Three Halls... are in danger.”

”You two should also know that today we called him here to make that decision.”

”No, it cannot be faked.” The Demon Hunting Main Hall Master’s tone suddenly became firm.

The Medicine Venerate Hall Master smiled, ”His eyes.”

The two exchanged a glance and smiled knowingly.

”What?” The Flame Hall Master frowned.

The Demon Hunting Main Hall Master smiled, ”Before he came, when he and Jiu Yan Tang Yin entered the Demon Hunting Territory, I had already observed him.”

”Just now when debating with you, when asked about the Demon Hunting Heavenly Duty, I also noticed him.”

The Medicine Venerate Hall Master nodded, ”In his eyes, only determination, clarity, and an inexplicable gentleness.”

”This boy seems to have great affection for your Demon Hunting Hall.”

”His previous words were not necessarily false.”

The admiration on the Demon Hunting Main Hall Master’s face grew stronger, ”If his words are not false, then his temperament is certainly commendable.”

”As for you, Old Man Huo, you seem quite displeased with him.”

”Is it because of the previous confrontation?”

The Flame Hall Master shook his head, revealing a knowing smile for the first time.

”Blaming him is uncalled for.”

”For a Fire Control Warrior, if he doesn’t even have a bit of arrogance, I would look down on him instead.”

”Even in front of me, he dares to be so proud, this boy in the Fire Control Skill is absolutely extraordinary.”

”Moreover, he possesses several powerful flames of the world. With proper cultivation, surpassing me one day is not impossible.”

”Since you believe in his good temperament, I naturally do as well, but I just wish to see him take off his mask,” he said earnestly.

”A Fire Control Warrior, spending a lifetime with fire, should be open and aboveboard, how can he hide his face.”

”We’ll leave that for now.” The Demon Hunting Main Hall Master waved his hand.

”Moreover, his intellect, you all saw just now.”

”His judgment regarding the evil cultivator was right on point.”

”Not parroting what others say, but having his own judgment, precise and close to the essence.”

”His intellect is by no means inferior to the three of us, perhaps even surpassing ours.”

”Should he one day lead the Main Hall, he would definitely not do a worse job than us.”

The Demon Hunting Main Hall Master stood up, hands behind his back, ”Temperament, intellect, talent, all top choices.”

”I think we can make this decision now.”

The Medicine Venerate Hall Master nodded.

The Flame Hall Master also stood up but spoke in a deep voice, ”I admit this boy is outstanding, but I feel the role of the Master of the Three Halls is no trivial matter.”

”To decide now is too hasty.”

”Hasty? No.” The Demon Hunting Main Hall Master shook his head.

”With your cultivation, you should have sensed it too, the sky is changing.”

The Demon Hunting Main Hall Master’s tone suddenly became extremely serious.

”I know.” The Flame Hall Master nodded, yet still frowned.

”Except, not everything might be as severe as we imagine.”

”No.” The Demon Hunting Main Hall Master’s face was solemn, his tone heavy to the extreme.

”The most abnormal generation born with the times.”

”This sky, either it doesn’t change, or once it changes, it’ll be truly uncontrollable.”

”This generation’s young prodigies are formidable but have yet to fully mature.”

”We, the old ones, if we can indeed hold up this sky, naturally it’s the best, but if not, we must hold it long enough for this generation, giving them enough time to grow.”

The Flame Hall Master tightly furrowed his brow, ”Our Eight Palaces, the foundation stones of the continent, even if now fractured, are still unshakable.”

”This sky cannot be weighed down...”

”Let me tell you this.” The Demon Hunting Main Hall Master suddenly interrupted in a cold voice.

”Old Asura, with his power in Body Cultivation, most easily shakes the Heaven and Earth Power, prying into the Heaven and Earth Ultimate Truth, and he has always been particularly wise.”

”Therefore, he often can foresee things earlier than us.”

”Old Man Fengsha, mastering the world’s intelligence, is unmatched in strategy.”

”Those two old fellows, always calm, now can’t wait to appoint successors.”

”I hear, they have chosen an amazing boy as their successor too.”

”Are we still hesitating, unsure?”

”They worry too much...” The Flame Hall Master waved his hand.

”Old Man Huo.” The Demon Hunting Main Hall Master suddenly shouted coldly, ”I only ask you, if one day anything happens to the three of us, leaving the Flame Hall, Demon Hunting Hall, and Medicine Venerate Hall leaderless.”

”Can you shoulder the consequences?”

”This...” The Flame Hall Master was at a loss for words, and after a moment, sat down powerlessly, sighing.

”Fine, then we’ll go with your decision.”
