Unstoppable Martial Arts: Starting with brother's wife and young sister-Chapter 744 - 428: Liu Sheng, Zhan Tian, National Preceptor! _3

Chapter 744: Chapter 428: Liu Sheng, Zhan Tian, National Preceptor! _3

Chen Xuan was somewhat surprised.

Isn’t it said that only the Imperial Family can enter the Qin Emperor Sacred Land?

"It’s not about entering, you can communicate directly with His Highness through special means."

Long Da said helplessly.

Really, what are you thinking?

Still want to enter the Qin Emperor Sacred Land!

"Then forget it, I need to return to rMolan Mansion. The Imperial City is too vast, and there are too many big figures. I might be considered someone noteworthy elsewhere, but in the Imperial City, I’m nothing."

Long Da felt truly weary at this moment.

How can the king of a mansion be so worthless in his words.

"Alright, then I’ll return to the Imperial Palace."

"Mm!"

Chen Xuan nodded slightly.

Long Da arrived quickly and left quickly.

"Shi Jian."

Chen Xuan shouted towards the outside.

The next moment Shi Jian walked in and asked softly, "What are your orders, my lord?"

"Stay in the Imperial City for a few days, I will return to rMolan Mansion first."

"If anyone asks... just say I went out."

"Handle everything else yourself."

"Yes!"

Shi Jian responded swiftly, although he didn’t understand why Chen Xuan arranged it this way, he deeply understood Chen Xuan’s personality and didn’t ask further questions.

After Shi Jian left, Chen Xuan’s appearance slowly began to change.

He transformed into the appearance of a middle-aged man and then gradually faded away, disappearing from the room.

...

Shadow Guard Headquarters.

Wood Shadow stood there for a long time without moving after hearing the news.

But at that moment, the entire room was covered with a layer of white frost.

"My lord, the National Preceptor sent word, requesting you to enter the Imperial Palace."

"Understood."

Wood Shadow said blandly.

From the moment she heard this news, she guessed that the National Preceptor probably wanted to see her.

She didn’t expect... Liu Sheng actually spread this matter, and it reached almost everyone in the Imperial City.

In Great Yu, only a few people would dare to do this, after all, who isn’t afraid of the National Preceptor.

But among these few people, Liu Sheng was one of them.

And he had been dissatisfied with the Shadow Guard for a long time, just lacking a reason, plus the National Preceptor’s prominent status made it difficult for him to act.

Now, with this matter involving Chen Xuan, he certainly wouldn’t waste this rare opportunity.

...

In the Ritual Department.

Zhan Tian came here as soon as he heard the news.

"Where’s that lad?"

He scanned the area with his Spiritual Power but did not see Chen Xuan.

"He left, did you expect me to keep him for a meal?"

"Damn!"

"Stirred up such a mess, and then just left, the bastard."

Zhan Tian cursed, feeling very displeased.

Across from him, Liu Sheng toyed with the lid of a white jade teacup, saying lightly, "What’s the big fuss about, it’s just a Shadow Guard."

Upon hearing him, Zhan Tian looked at him with a complex expression, and after a long while finally spoke, "You still can’t forget about what happened back then."

"Forget?"

Liu Sheng let out a cold laugh, his eyes suddenly filled with ferocity.

Back then the Shadow Guards mobilized collectively, massacring the entire Bu Family, originally there was nothing wrong with that.

Those associated with Hidden Kill should have expected such an outcome.

But unfortunately, one person from the Bu Family was a member of the Ritual Department.

Just a peripheral figure.

But the Shadow Guards used this as a pretext to thoroughly investigate the Ritual Department and monitored everyone in it day and night.

For a full six months.

The people in the Ritual Department were frustrated but dared not speak up.

To Liu Sheng, this was the biggest humiliation of his life.

It was only when Emperor Yu personally intervened, presumably thinking such actions negatively impacted the situation since the Ritual Department represents the most upright source in Great Yu, and it was just an accident involving a minor figure.

Only then did the Shadow Guards relent.

And after this incident... Liu Sheng and the Ritual Department became extremely low-key.

But this matter was a thorn in his side.

After waiting so many years, he finally had an opportunity, and of course, he wouldn’t miss it.

Moreover, when Kang Bai mentioned it, he had already decided in his heart to take revenge on the Shadow Guards.

"You old rascal, your petty-mindedness hasn’t changed since you were young, it’s been so many years and you still hold onto it!"

Zhan Tian teased him with a smile.

"Humph!"

Liu Sheng snorted coldly, "I’ll remember this for a lifetime, I won’t rest until those Shadow Guard bastards are dead."

As a minister pivotal to Great Yu, when had he ever swallowed such humiliation.

If not for the Ritual Department’s unique status, he would have acted covertly long ago.

"Indeed, the Shadow Guards need to be disciplined."

Zhan Tian’s eyes also revealed dissatisfaction.

"It’s not much of your concern."

Liu Sheng said softly.

The one least afraid of the Shadow Guards in Great Yu would be Zhan Tian.

Even though the Shadow Guards had planted people within the Three Judicial Departments, this old rascal knew them all.

"Exactly, I don’t care about them."

Zhan Tian said indifferently.

Though there were many Shadow Guard spies in the Three Judicial Departments, he was aware of who they were.

This was thanks to the Library Pavilion’s unique Array; no one could hide themselves from him.

But having surveillance was always an annoying matter.

So Zhan Tian would trouble those people once in a while, just to vent.

"Notify me if anything happens, the National Preceptor we’re dealing with."

Zhan Tian looked at him and said in a deep voice.

He certainly understood the grievances of his old friend.

Moreover, they had been partners for many years.

So he definitely wouldn’t stand aside, especially when Liu Sheng was confronting the National Preceptor.

"Though the National Preceptor hasn’t managed affairs much these past years, he shouldn’t be underestimated."

Even facing the National Preceptor, both of them were under pressure.

It’s not about his power.

Although the National Preceptor was strong, he wasn’t overly formidable; the two might not be matched but wouldn’t be far off.

The key was his relationship with Emperor Yu was much closer than theirs.

"Let’s try it then!"

Battle spirit surged in Liu Sheng’s heart; ultimately, this was a contest between him and the National Preceptor.

Moreover, not just him, those senior figures in Great Yu had long been dissatisfied with the Shadow Guards, this time he would take the lead, those old people would surely be unable to hold back.

With so many people... he wanted to see how Emperor Yu would handle this!
