Space Old Man (Ten Thousand Characters Daily)

Suddenly, the woman seated in the middle asked, "Third Elder, what do you think of Soul Heavenly Cripple's situation?"

The man she called Third Elder was a burly old man well past sixty.

If Ma Xiao Tao had been here, she would have immediately been shocked to discover that the woman was none other than Feng Ling, Vice Sect Leader of the Holy Spirit Cult and Zhongli Wu's spouse.

The man called Third Elder was the Holy Spirit Cult's Third Elder, Nether Lightning Douluo, possessor of the Nether Lightning Sword Martial Soul and the only Rank Nine Soul Tool Master among the Holy Spirit Cult's core members.

Nether Lightning Douluo said in a deep voice, "Vice Sect Leader, that young man is no simple character. And Space Old Man outside seems very satisfied with the boy's performance. It looks as though he even intends to take him as a disciple."

Feng Ling narrowed her eyes slightly. Naturally, she knew that the person he meant was Space King Diophantus, whom the Holy Spirit Cult had repeatedly tried and failed to recruit.

The Holy Spirit Cult had tried many times to recruit him, all without success. He had no interest whatsoever in the Holy Spirit Cult's fields of research. Instead, he was quite interested in that "forbidden" Soul Tool being researched by the Sun Moon Empire's royal family, and would occasionally go there to lend a hand for free.

One handled the theoretical framework while the other handled practical implementation. They were truly a match made
