Chapter 379 Pierre Cardin
"Of course, there's also information about the Evil Soul Masters."
Xuanmo added at the end.
Gel's voice trembled as he asked, "Are you really willing to help me?"
"Heh, whether we help or not depends on your explanation." Xuanmo stood with his hands behind his back, tapping his left hand with his right fingers. Though he said this, it was unclear what he was thinking. "However, we hope your information is useful."
"Of course, of course!"
Gel understood the implication and nodded quickly. "Please ask whatever you want; I'll answer anything I know."
"Very good. Please don't resist."
The next second, Xuanmo's expression became extremely serious, and he bent over. His aura pressed down on Gel like a mountain.
A crimson-gold and a blue-gold light flashed in his eyes.
"Then I ask you, what is your background?"
He stopped Jin Sanqian and Wilda, who were about to speak, signaling them to ignore him.
At this moment, after meeting Xuanmo's eyes, which shone with two colors, Geer seemed lost in thought.
Facing Xuanmo's question, he answered without hesitation, as if it were instinct.
"I am Master Pierre Cardin's disciple..."
"Pierre Cardin?"
The surrounding crowd was stunned, for they had never heard of this name before. Then, their gazes naturally turned to Ryder.
Seeing this, Ryder's forehead creased with annoyance, but he said nothing. He had some understanding of Master Cardin's identity over the past two years.
Noticing the change in Ryder's expression, Xuanmo reached out and stopped him, causing the lifeless light in Geer's eyes to vanish, and turning his attention to Ryder.
"Pierre Cardan was actually an extremely famous level eight soul tool manufacturer in the past of the Sun Moon Empire. Fifty years ago, his reputation was renowned throughout the world."
"A level eight soul tool manufacturer!"
"In the past?"
After hearing Ryder's words, everyone's reactions were different.
It seemed that most people's focus was on the identity of a level eight soul tool manufacturer. After all, a level eight soul tool manufacturer was not a common cabbage, but a top-grade herb.
So after hearing Pierre Cardan's identity, even Xuan Mo couldn't help but get excited. Because as long as he could bring this person back, there would be no need to worry about developing soul tools.
However, he reacted quickly and soon noticed the words "past." So, he raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Brother Ryder, what do you mean by 'past'?"
Xuan Mo asked. "Could it be that he's dead?"
"No. Pierre Cardan disappeared ten years ago."
"Disappeared?"
Seeing Ryder shake his head slightly, Xuan Mo muttered to himself. And unconsciously, he turned his gaze to Ger, and suddenly, a guess appeared in his mind. So, "Could it be..."
"Xuanzi, what are you thinking about?"
Just as Xuanmo was lost in thought, a sudden figure interrupted his thoughts. There stood Ryder, looking at him with a gaze that held a mixture of doubt and interest.
"It's nothing, I just have some suspicions about Pierre Cardan, who's been missing for over ten years."
"Tap tap tap..."
Xuanmo's fingers tapped rhythmically on a nearby tree trunk. "I'm afraid Pierre Cardan's disappearance was the work of those evil soul masters, that's my intuition."
He then turned to Ger, "As for the specifics, let the parties involved tell us themselves."
With a wave of his right hand, Ger's eyes glazed over again, and he continued, "Ten years ago, these evil soul masters kidnapped many soul tool manufacturers, wanting Master Cardan to develop some unknown things for them. Soul tool manufacturers like us, whose levels weren't high enough, could only do odd jobs, but once we learned some of the organization's secrets, they would silence us."
At this point, the glazed Ger instinctively shuddered. "And I discovered that they wanted to create level nine soul tools, and after completion, they would also silence the kidnapped soul tool manufacturers. So I was taken away to be silenced. As for what happened afterward, I was rescued by Ryder and the others."
Hearing this, everyone exchanged glances.
Unexpectedly, they obtained such information from Ger. A level nine soul tool should be comparable to the combat power of a Title Douluo. Moreover, after its completion, they planned to silence everyone involved.
"Heh, that's just their nature," a cold laugh rippled through him. Immediately afterward, Xuanmo and the others asked the question they were most concerned about, "Then let me ask you, do you know that two years ago, a Soul Douluo-level evil soul master kidnapped a soul master with a missing arm? Or any related rumors?"
Unfortunately, Ger's next words did not satisfy them. Gel shook his head. "I'm just a level four Soul Guidance Maker. Soul Douluo level is completely beyond our reach. I overheard this information by chance when I went to find Master Cardan. In the end, I chose to escape, but they discovered me."
"This is difficult," Gel frowned. "This information won't be of much use in finding Mulin?"
"That's not necessarily true."
Just as everyone was filled with worry, Xuanmo suddenly spoke up. "Just because he can't access it doesn't mean others can't."
"Hmm? Brother Mo, you mean…"
"Pierre Cardan."
Hearing Xuanmo utter this name, everyone shook their heads. Finally, Ryder spoke up, saying, "No. Piercardan, as an eighth-level soul tool manufacturer, will definitely be heavily guarded. Besides, we don't even know where he is."
"No."
Xuanmo shook his head at this moment, "I think we can get useful information from him."
"But..."
"I ask you, do you think a Soul Master can escape that place on his own?"
Upon hearing this question, not only Ryder, but even the others around him showed a sudden realization, "You mean..."
Xuanmo nodded slightly, confirming the meaning of the words, "He is either bait thrown out by the evil soul masters, or he has someone helping him. However, the possibility of him being baited is almost zero."
Hearing this, Ryder frowned, "Then can we be sure he is not one of the evil soul masters?"
"Don't worry, he definitely isn't."
Hearing the voice in his mind, Xuanmo's eyes narrowed, and he immediately replied to Ryder. At the same time, Ger almost collapsed.
Fortunately, he was supported by Jin Sanqian beside him.
"Then the person you're talking about..."
"Pierre Cardin."
