Unstoppable Martial Arts: Starting with brother's wife and young sister Chapter 1446 - 658: Black Lotus!

"Go back?"

In the courtyard, Xia Cang was stunned, looking at Qin Se in disbelief.

He had waited for five years!

And now just a single ’Ten Thousand Saints are unavailable,’ and he’s supposed to go back. How will he explain this when he returns?

Squeak.

The door opened, and Chen Xuan’s spiritual power avatar walked out of the room.

"Senior Brother..."

"Then it’s decided, Brother Xia should head back first. If the Patriarch has any instructions, they will be immediately conveyed to Jidao Mountain."

After speaking, Qin Se bowed and left the courtyard.

This left Xia Cang with an unpleasant expression, and at this moment, Chen Xuan also approached. "This..."

After a moment of silence, Xia Cang finally suppressed the anger in his heart. "Let’s go back first."

Waiting for five years, only to end like this, even Xia Cang couldn’t help but feel anxious about returning... alas!

He sighed deeply in his heart.

And Chen Xuan himself also left Ten Thousand Laws Sect.

"Flower Saint!"

This was his next target of choice.

Because the Ten Thousand Saints told him that the Flower Saint had been searching for an heir for years, and it had to be a male cultivator.

But this was peculiar.

Because Lotus Sect was full of female cultivators, not a single male one, yet she insisted on choosing a male cultivator as her heir.

"Indeed, it’s somewhat odd."

Chen Xuan mused, yet among the lower five saints, the Flower Saint was the only choice now.

The Artifact Saint had been in seclusion for ten thousand years, reportedly crafting a top-tier treasure.

As for the Killing Saint, far too strong, perhaps best left alone for now.

So that left the Flower Saint. As for the upper three saints, Chen Xuan was not yet their match; better to deal with the lower five saints first.

...

Three days later.

Chen Xuan arrived at Lotus Sect, and although the Ten Thousand Saints had told him that his first sight of Lotus Sect would surely amaze him, he hadn’t believed it at first.

But now he was astonished.

In the sky, a colossal lotus flower emitted resplendent colors.

Every petal held buildings of white jade, which at first glance seemed less like houses and more like artworks, with mist swirling around, giving an ethereal aura.

This was merely the outermost part.

As for the inside, it was invisible to the naked eye.

"Beautiful as a painting!"

Chen Xuan couldn’t help but exclaim.

"Indeed, it’s truly stunning."

Just then, a young male cultivator arrived, dressed in white, exuding elegance.

Chen Xuan observed him; late-stage Emperor Realm, only a step away from perfection.

The key was... young!

Really young, based on Chen Xuan’s sensing, definitely under a hundred years old.

"Tsk tsk... monstrous!"

"May I know your esteemed name and sect, Dao Brother?"

The young man in white held a fan, and with a respectful gesture, inquired.

"Xuan Er, from Ten Thousand Laws Sect."

Chen Xuan was again using his Master’s name. Of course, his identity in Ten Thousand Laws Sect had long been arranged.

"Forgive me, my name is Xi Men Cuo, from the Eight Desolates Palace!"

Among the ten major powers of the Upper Domain, aside from the sects of the Eight Saints, there are two others, and the Eight Desolates Palace is one of them, ranking ninth.

Though lacking a saint, its power never loses to those of the lower five saints’ sects.

"Seems like Brother Xuan and I have the same goal then."

Xi Men Cuo laughed.

"Would a male cultivator come to Lotus Sect for anything other than one reason?" Chen Xuan countered.

"Hahaha..."

The two exchanged a knowing smile, indeed both wished to become the Flower Saint’s heir.

But for so many years, none had satisfied her.

"Then let’s wait here until the year’s end, which is over a month away, when Lotus Sect opens the Lotus Path, and we can enter."

"During this time, many people will arrive gradually."

As he finished, he waved his hand casually, and a mansion appeared out of thin air. "If Brother Xuan does not mind, join me?"

"Thank you."

Chen Xuan gladly accepted, as there was still more than a month left, and he couldn’t exactly camp in the wild.

Though Upper Domain people indeed know how to enjoy themselves, carrying residences with them.

Moreover, inside was fully stocked with food and drink.

Except there wasn’t a beauty to serve, having to do everything himself.

Night!

The two sat opposite each other, drinking and chatting freely.

Chen Xuan found that Xi Men Cuo truly seemed like an old friend, even though they had only met today.

"Just lacking a beauty for company." Xi Men Cuo downed a cup, suddenly lamented.

However, his gaze shifted to the enormous lotus in the sky.

"Does Brother Xuan know the origin of this lotus?"

"No idea."

Chen Xuan shook his head; how would he know such things?

But his response signaled Xi Men Cuo to continue, "It’s a reward from the Heavenly Dao; allegedly, the Flower Saint accomplished something, though exactly what is unclear."

"Oh?"

Chen Xuan uttered lightly. So it’s from the Heavenly Dao, no wonder he sensed the presence of the great path on the lotus; he had thought it was from the Flower Saint.

Seems it wasn’t.

"Do you know why the Flower Saint wants to choose a male cultivator as an heir?"

Xi Men Cuo asked again.

"I don’t know, my position in Ten Thousand Laws Sect is somewhat significant, but not very high."

Chen Xuan smiled slightly.

Even the Ten Thousand Saints aren’t quite clear, so how could he be.

"There’s a rumor!"

"But can’t be spoken!"

Xi Men Cuo’s words left Chen Xuan speechless, playing like this, right?

"It involves the Flower Saint, some things can’t be said recklessly."

Probably fearing misunderstanding, Xi Men Cuo explained.

"One should not discuss saints lightly."

Chen Xuan laughed, "But after so many years, none have entered the Flower Saint’s sight, who knows if this time there will be a chance!"

"Alas!"

Xi Men Cuo sighed, "Indeed, to succeed would be like a carp leaping over the dragon’s gate, but..."

He didn’t finish the latter part of his sentence.

The Flower Saint has not revealed specific standards for choosing an heir.

Thus, these individuals don’t have confidence.

This has led from crowds at the start to a mere handful now.
