Unstoppable Martial Arts: Starting with brother's wife and young sister Chapter 1358 - 628: I Want It, Not You Giving It! (Part 3)

Moreover, it’s urgent to switch allegiances, fully maintaining each mansion to prevent chaos.

In addition, the Ritual Department and Three Judicial Departments were directly moved from the Imperial City to Molan Mansion by Chen Xuan using spatial rules.

Of course, this is not the main issue, as Duke Qin is well aware,

but the Star Hall has also moved!

This truly surprised the Three Dukes, who never expected the Star Hall would leave the Imperial City.

"Lord Hall Master... How about waiting until Your Majesty exits seclusion?"

Duke Qin looked at the Hall Master with a near-pleading expression.

At that moment, the entire Star Hall was enveloped by starlight, floating in mid-air, looking truly like a magnificent star!

Yet in the eyes of the Three Dukes, it was glaring.

"Regardless of his presence, the decision is made!"

The Hall Master spoke softly, then transformed into starlight right in front of the Three Dukes, departing the Imperial City.

This scene was witnessed by common folk, families, and officials of all ranks in the Imperial City, leaving them bewildered.

The common folk might have just watched for amusement.

After all, for them, having enough to eat and wear is sufficient; everything else is mere spectacle.

However, those families, officials of Great Yu, and experts felt differently.

After all, the Star Hall was above worldly concerns; its departure was akin to abandoning Great Yu.

Especially the martial arts experts were already contemplating leaving the Imperial City.

Duke Qin looked despondent at that moment, not expecting such a situation, even the Star Hall leaving Great Yu.

"Your Majesty..."

He murmured, his eyes vacant, having dedicated his life to Great Yu, even stabilizing the ten perilous lands, presenting an unparalleled strength.

But then came outsiders from the three continents, now Great Yu is divided, ultimately leading the Star Hall to leave the Imperial City.

Amidst it all, Duke Qin could no longer bear, his vision darkening as his body gently descended.

"Duke Qin...!!!"

....

The Star Hall did not choose Molan Mansion but directly headed to the Primordial Realm.

For this, Chen Xuan specifically vacated an island outside the Central Island.

This island was given to Xiaoqi and the Bamboo Garden group.

"Indeed, the Primordial Two Realms!"

The Hall Master’s starry eyes gazed at the essence of Xiaoyuan, feeling its emanating aura, unable to help but sigh.

"How large is the Primordial Realm now?"

He suddenly asked.

"Almost half the size of the Eastern Continent, and still growing!"

Chen Xuan did not conceal this.

"It’s best to stop expanding."

Upon hearing the Hall Master’s words, Chen Xuan initially paused but quickly understood, "Your honor means expanding the Primordial Realm would increase pressure on the branches of the World Tree!"

"Thus, the timeline would shorten!"

"Yes!"

The Hall Master nodded slightly, "Precisely, because the Primordial Realm and Eastern Continent border each other, the pressure naturally falls on the same branch. This branch is rapidly dying; the larger the Primordial Realm, the shorter the timeline."

"Yes!"

Chen Xuan nodded; this was something he hadn’t considered, especially with the newly sprouting World Tree growing at a slow pace.

"Have you heard? Follow accordingly!"

He said to the essence of Xiaoyuan.

"Yes!"

A ethereal voice came from above; although unwilling, it recognized the gravity of the situation. Presently, it had no choice.

"By the way, when do you plan to establish the nation?"

Now that things are clear, these days Liu Sheng and Zhan Tian have toured the northern fifty mansions, stabilizing them, so the matter of nation-building should proceed.

"Honestly... I haven’t decided yet!"

Since Great Yu announced the news, now just barely a month has passed.

"Once decided, inform me. Nation-building is not to be taken lightly; it requires thorough preparation!"

"Understood!"

Chen Xuan nodded; he had witnessed this first-hand in the Human Realm.

Of course, a Lower Realm is surely incomparable to the Supreme Domain.

...

Molan Mansion, Ritual Department!

Located to the left of Prince Xuan’s Mansion, with the Three Judicial Departments on the right!

Chen Xuan grandiosely dubbed them protectors.

"That brat cares about nothing!"

"Damn, just tormenting this old man, already ancient bones, exhausting me!"

Zhan Tian leaned sloppily on a chair, one foot propped up on the adjacent table, completely disregarding decorum.

"Enough!"

Liu Sheng, seated above, glared at him, though indeed the recent consolidation of the fifty mansions had been harrowing, leaving him not this exhausted in ages.

If given a choice, he would prefer facing a battle.

"But now it’s about settled; most have found their place on track, those unwilling have left, the remaining have pledged loyalty, and we can breathe easy."

Liu Sheng drank deeply from his teacup, feeling noticeably relieved.

"Although many have left, the impact of those people... runs deep."

Zhan Tian lowered his leg from the table, sighing.

Great Yu influenced these officials through national fortune power; of course they’re aware.

He, at the beginning, was affected too, but later broke through to the eighth level, strengthening his spirit, thus cleansing entirely.

However, he remembers that night vividly, when his eyes never shut until dawn, with cold sweats unabating.

"Yes!"

Liu Sheng nodded, this issue stemmed from the former emperor’s era, meant to ensure these people’s loyalty to Great Yu.

Moreover, it allowed them to swiftly enhance their strength using national fortune power.

However, its consequences are severe.

High Dao Realm levels, especially six to seven levels, find it difficult to progress, effectively severing their martial path.

This also explains why Great Yu had so few top experts.

"We need strategies to remove Great Yu’s influence from those who remain!"

"And another point, replacements must be found for those who’ve left!"

"This... is a headache!"

Zhan Tian rubbed his brow, wondering where so many experts would come from!
