Unstoppable Martial Arts: Starting with brother's wife and young sister Chapter 922 488: Emperor Yu's Decision!

"Now I understand why his talent is unmatched!"

Liu Sheng at last comprehended the truth.

The foundation of the Supreme Domain lies in the Sub-Realm. Legends speak of a once-in-hundreds-of-thousands-years prodigy arising from the Sub-Realm.

And such prodigies are invariably the cream of the crop.

Before, he doubted that Chen Xuan from some backwater could possess such peerless talent.

But now... doesn't that make him exactly from a 'small place'?

"Enough!"

Zhan Tian's voice carried clear displeasure. "The matter at hand ties directly to the Sub-Realm, and without fixing this kid's issue, he won't even enter the Burial Ground."

Someone chasing a dream, only to find it vanished, would feel utterly devastated.

However, the Burial Ground absolutely requires his presence.

Failing that, Great Yu's prestige would suffer greatly.

"While the Sub-Realm underpins the Supreme Domain's base, a destroyed Sub-Realm holds little real importance."

Liu Sheng mulled it over briefly before sending a mental message.

"Are you suggesting we inform him?"

"Seek His Majesty's counsel first."

Since it concerns the Sub-Realm, even as Great Yu's key supports, they couldn't make the call on their own.

"Alright!"

Within the chamber, Zhan Tian gradually lifted his eyelids.

"Elder Zhan!"

Chen Xuan spoke up right away, eyes filled with anticipation.

"Leave for now and wait at the Three Judicial Departments!"

"Well... okay!"

Despite his inner turmoil, waiting was his only option right then.

Lest he irk Zhan Tian and invite total disaster.

They departed from the Library Pavilion's tenth floor.

Liu Sheng and Zhan Tian exited the Three Judicial Departments.

No words were needed for Chen Xuan to realize they were bound for the Imperial Palace. Only Emperor Yu could settle what baffled them.

"Daddy, what's the matter?"

Xiaoqi noticed his ashen complexion and uneven breaths, gazing at him with concern.

"Daddy is fine!"

Chen Xuan managed a faint smile, yet his eyes anxiously fixed on the Imperial Palace's direction.

"Emperor Yu...."

"If it doesn't pan out...."

....

Zhan Tian and Liu Sheng rushed toward Qixuan Hall.

"What urgent matter draws you two here together?"

Emperor Yu showed mild astonishment.

These veteran powerhouses rarely stepped into the Hall of Three Treasures without cause. Their joint arrival signaled a grave issue.

"It concerns Prince Xuan of Molan Mansion."

Liu Sheng declared.

"Him?"

Emperor Yu's eyebrow arched faintly as he remembered Ying'Er's affection for him.

She had personally vouched for Prince Xuan's title.

Trouble had even followed in its wake.

Yet... what pressing crisis demanded their direct audience?

"Speak up—has this boy stirred up more chaos?"

In response to Emperor Yu's question, the pair shared a look. At length, Liu Sheng replied, "This young man possesses immense power, standing unrivaled beneath the eighth level of Dao Realm."

Wisely, he avoided naming the Sub-Realm outright.

But who was Emperor Yu?

How could such a ploy escape his notice? He played along without exposing it, feigning light shock: "That formidable?"

"Is he truly your chosen one?"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Liu Sheng gave a subtle nod. "Furthermore, he can grow even stronger, and his son shows remarkable promise too. Though lagging a bit currently, under right guidance, he'll match the Peak of Seventh Layer of Dao Realm by the Burial Ground's opening."

Initially just mildly taken aback, Emperor Yu's face now shifted noticeably.

Father and son both bearing such phenomenal gifts!

Events like this were exceedingly scarce, almost unheard of, igniting his interest.

"Cut to the chase!"

"Yes!"

Liu Sheng then succinctly outlined the Sub-Realm issue, falling silent to await Emperor Yu's verdict.

"So, he hails from the Sub-Realm."

Enlightenment dawned on Emperor Yu.

This explained everything, for in Great Yu's vast chronicle spanning hundreds of thousands of years, no father-son duo of prodigies had ever emerged.

Qin Ying might not outstrip him later, but her prowess stemmed from inherited bloodline and didn't qualify.

"Very well!"

After a quick reflection, Emperor Yu consented with a nod. "However, only post-Burial Ground, and he must uphold Great Yu's honor—or no Sub-Realm coordinates from me."

"Precisely!"

Liu Sheng heartily endorsed Emperor Yu's ruling too.

"Furthermore... should he truly fend off those top warriors, I'll wed Ying'Er to him."

"Issuing a royal marriage decree myself!"

In that instant!

A hint of surprise flashed across Liu Sheng and Zhan Tian's faces.

Bestowing a marriage by imperial decree is a tremendous honor. Emperor Yu, who has reigned for so many years, has arranged marriages in the past, but solely through verbal orders, never an official decree.

"Yes! This old minister offers thanks on his behalf for Your Majesty's grace!"

"Hmm!"

Emperor Yu gave a faint nod. "Dismissed!"

They stood, offered a bow to Emperor Yu, and exited Qixuan Hall.

"Unexpected!"

Strolling through the Imperial Palace, Zhan Tian sighed deeply.

"Do you mean the Sub-Realm issue or Qin Ying?"

"Obviously the latter."

Zhan Tian eyed him like an idiot. He had foreseen that Emperor Yu, aware of Chen Xuan's prowess, would approve destroying the doomed Sub-Realm.

However, the marriage decree had blindsided him completely.

"Though surprising, it's understandable!"

Liu Sheng responded with steady calm.

"After all, the kid boasts exceptional talent, hails from the Sub-Realm with a spotless background—tying him to the Imperial Family... ensures His Majesty's ultimate gambit proceeds with greater certainty."

"Let's hope so!"

Zhan Tian uttered slowly.

Despite the youth's phenomenal talent, an odd unease lingered in his mind.

Binding him to the Imperial Family... he doubted Qin Ying could rein him in.

Lest... the winds of fate shift dramatically by then?

"By that time, us old timers might be long gone—that's just overthinking."
