Ye Chenxing's Concerns; Tang San's Divine Thought

He gathered his thoughts.

Ye Chenxing looked at Xiao Hongchen and slowly voiced his speculation. "Logically speaking, a Martial Soul Fusion Skill places extremely high demands on the quality and compatibility of both Martial Souls. If only Meng's Martial Soul underwent a fundamental evolution while you merely improved your Soul Power and attributes, the originally balanced opportunity should have been disrupted. Your Martial Soul Fusion Skill should most likely have become difficult to use."

Xiao Hongchen was stunned upon hearing this, then quickly understood.

"But your Red Dust Yearning hasn't been affected at all." Ye Chenxing stroked his chin, a glint stirring in his eyes.

"That can only mean one thing. Xiao, your Martial Soul must also have evolved on some hidden level. It simply isn't outwardly apparent, or perhaps your current realm is still too low for you to notice it."

Xiao Hongchen's expression turned solemn. The disappointment of not receiving a Martial Soul Evolution instantly vanished, and he nodded seriously. "I understand. When I meditate and cultivate from now on, I'll pay closer attention and thoroughly investigate the changes in my body."

After sorting out the matter, Ye Chenxing turned and looked around in confusion. "By the way, where's Elder Kong? He was just here. How did he disappear in the blink of an eye?"

At the mention of this, Jing Hongchen's expression immediately turned helpless. "Elder Kong was originally at a crucial stage in researching his natal Soul Tool. Looking across the entire Illustrious Virtue Hall—no, the entire Sun Moon Empire—there was probably only you who could have invited him out at a time like this."

"After seeing that you were safe and explaining everything, the old man rushed straight back to the Hall of Consecration to continue his secluded cultivation."

Ye Chenxing could only laugh speechlessly.
