Unstoppable Martial Arts: Starting with brother's wife and young sister Chapter 1105 - 544: Disturbance in the Box! (Part 2)

Normally, the state of the ancestral tree’s core can be monitored, but once it’s activated you have to wait a period of time, until the sealed energy weakens.

But this time, for some unknown reason, it’s already been more than a month, and they still can’t see what’s going on inside.

"Stay alert!"

"Yes, Elder!"

The burly man replied respectfully, and at the same time he couldn’t help but shiver all over.

Just from Qingzhou saying a few words, that chilling cold made him feel like his Spiritual Power was about to freeze solid.

...

Imperial City, Ritual Department.

Liu Sheng got up early today, or rather, he hadn’t slept the whole night.

There was always a bad feeling in his heart, making it impossible for him to fall asleep.

His eyelids had even been twitching nonstop last night.

And this had been going on for some time already.

"Don’t tell me something happened?"

Liu Sheng’s heart trembled; this was what he least wanted to think about, but that feeling had grown stronger and stronger last night.

"Someone come!"

He shouted loudly toward the outside.

"Chief Eunuch!"

A maid walked in. After Chen Xuan left, Kang Bai had been busy with the affairs of the Ritual Department, but Liu Sheng needed someone to take care of him, so in the end they arranged a maid.

"Have Kang Bai come see me."

"Quickly!"

"Ah...yes!"

The maid was stunned at first, scared by him. She had been serving Liu Sheng for some time and he was always very easygoing, but today she clearly felt how abnormal he was. Not daring to delay, she immediately ran out.

A short while later!

Kang Bai hurriedly rushed over. "Chief Eunuch, what’s wrong?"

He looked at Liu Sheng with a tense expression.

He had been in the middle of handling affairs when the maid came running in a panic, saying the Chief Eunuch wanted to see him immediately. He thought some great disaster had occurred.

But looking at his expression now, there didn’t seem to be a big problem.

His nervous expression eased a bit, but then Liu Sheng’s next words made his face tense up again.

"Go to the Three Judicial Departments and have Zhan Tian come here at once!"

"At once?"

Kang Bai’s heart shook. What major event had happened, and his tone was so grave.

"At once!"

Liu Sheng’s voice unconsciously rose a lot, even startling Kang Bai.

Not daring to ask more, he immediately nodded. "I’ll go right away!"

Then he directly stepped into the air and headed toward the Three Judicial Departments.

...

"You’re worried about that kid?"

Zhan Tian looked at him and asked.

He had hurried over to the Ritual Department, and after hearing what Liu Sheng said, he instantly guessed it.

"Yeah."

Liu Sheng nodded.

It had already been a long time since the great battle ended; he should have been back by now.

Hearing this, Zhan Tian spoke directly, "Since that’s the case, I’ll go see the Hall Master!"

It concerned Chen Xuan. Although feelings and premonitions were somewhat vague things, for people like them, this kind of situation would not appear casually.

"Mm."

Liu Sheng nodded.

After that Zhan Tian left the Ritual Department and went to the Star Hall.

"Lord Hall Master, could you see if you can take a look?"

"Ai."

The Hall Master sighed.

To be honest, it wasn’t that he was unwilling to help, but Chen Xuan simply couldn’t be divined; it was as if something unknown was obscuring him.

And the stronger he became, the more this was the case.

"I can’t."

The Hall Master shook his head, then his gaze shifted to Xiaoqi, who was immersed in Cultivation, and a change flashed through his eyes. "Wait!"

The originally dejected Zhan Tian felt his heart tighten when he heard that single word. "Hall Master, you..."

The Hall Master didn’t answer him, but kept his eyes on Xiaoqi, and at this moment the scene in his eyes had already changed.

"What?"

A moment later, the always steady him actually had his expression change drastically and let out a cry of shock.

"What is it, Hall Master?"

Zhan Tian’s heart trembled. Just what had happened to make even the Hall Master lose his composure?

Combining this with Liu Sheng’s state these days, "Could something really have happened?"

"Boom!"

His heart shook.

If that were true, then it would be a huge matter.

The Hall Master withdrew his gaze and turned to look at Zhan Tian. Seeing his face full of worry, he spoke, "It’s not what you’re thinking."

"The result is that I can’t divine anything!"

"But there should be some trouble. Go to the Hidden Forest Abyss and wait there to see."

He then waved his hand at Zhan Tian, indicating he should leave.

Even if Zhan Tian still had doubts, right now he could only nod. After saluting, he left the Star Hall.

After returning to the Ritual Department, he briefly went over it. As for the Hall Master’s reaction, he didn’t mention it, afraid Liu Sheng would overthink.

"I’ll head to the Hidden Forest Abyss now. Don’t worry, I’ll definitely bring that kid back to you in one piece!"

If not for him last time, grass would probably already be growing on his grave.

He owed such a huge favor.

This time, no matter what, even if he had to charge alone into the Tree-man Race, he wouldn’t flinch.

"Then I’ll leave everything to you."

Liu Sheng stood up and placed a hand on his shoulder. "Nothing can happen to him!"

"Got it!"

Zhan Tian uttered the two words in a deep voice and nodded heavily. This was his promise to his old partner.

He left!

And Liu Sheng stood there, looking in the direction Zhan Tian had gone. "Hoo—"

He took a long breath. "I hope everything is fine!"

...

In the Hidden Forest Abyss, within the space of the Primordial Spirit Wood.

Chen Xuan raised his head to look upward.

There were still ten meters left.

The top was already within reach.

"Two more apertures!"

Chen Xuan spoke in a low voice.

During this time he had broken through four more apertures; only two remained before he reached fifty percent of the Sacred Body.

"That’s enough!"

He then continued walking upward.

The ten meters of distance took Chen Xuan ten days.

Finally!

With a "pop."

Chen Xuan finally blasted open the fifty-fourth aperture.

"Boom!"

Dazzling jade-colored radiance erupted from his entire body. With fifty percent of the Sacred Body, even facing the pressure of the Primordial Spirit Wood, he now felt light and relaxed all over.
