Unstoppable Martial Arts: Starting with brother's wife and young sister Chapter 951 497: The Stone Race Attacks!
Previously on Unstoppable Martial Arts: Starting with brother's wife and young sister...
A surge of Spiritual Power burst forth from Wu Guang, slamming into the emblem of the Three Judicial Departments.
"Elder Zhan!"
Soon after, Zhan Tian's voice resounded within the tent.
....
"That's the situation—go inform Liu Sheng and have him deal with it personally."
"Tell him, at his age, he's wasting his life like a dog; he needs to stay low-key. If anyone finds out, he won't even realize it!"
"Uh—"
A wry smile crossed Wu Guang's face; only he had the guts to speak like that.
Once the transmission ended, he used a unique technique to wipe away all signs of the contact.
Five Teleportation Arrays exist in the army camp, overseen by the four Grand Generals and the Nineteen Prince.
Furthermore, the Nineteen Prince dispatches inspectors to check them at regular intervals.
Normally, any outside communications require reporting.
Yet the Generals possess methods to conceal such traces, exempting them from this rule.
With everything verified as secure, Wu Guang exited the tent and headed straight to Liu Sheng.
Yet once he fully explained the issue,
Liu Sheng's face remained unchanged.
"No issue!"
"Zhan Tian's message means it's already taken care of."
"By the way!"
His gaze turned to Wu Guang. "Did that old geezer badmouth me?"
"Haha!"
An embarrassed grin appeared on Wu Guang's lips. "Well...."
He refused to echo those harsh words.
"I figured as much—that old coot isn't himself without some cursing."
He understood Zhan Tian perfectly; the problem would be handled for sure, complete with the usual barbs.
"Get the Shen Family relocated to your quarters, and... fetch Shen Tong for an audience with me!"
Earlier, Chen Xuan had picked up on Shen Tong's strange behavior but hadn't dwelled on it. Still, he wondered exactly how the man had spotted him.
With just Dao Realm sixth-layer cultivation, could he possibly see through the disguise?
Ridiculous!
"Yes, I'll handle it right away!"
With a quick look at Wu Jin, who was deep in cultivation nearby, he rushed out of the tent.
Wu Guang acted with haste.
The Shen Family was first housed in Stone Cave City, but a single command from Wu Guang saw them all seized and brought to his camp.
That same night, Shen Tong was hauled before Liu Sheng.
"So that's how it was!"
Liu Sheng chuckled while shaking his head, figuring out it was the subtle sandalwood aroma clinging to him.
Such careful planning, yet this tiny flaw slipped by.
Naturally, he himself hadn't caught it either.
"Fine, watch your tongue and banish any stray ideas, or else... your entire Shen Family gets wiped out!"
His tone shifted completely with those words.
The crushing aura of dominance left Shen Tong's heart quaking; he couldn't even raise his eyes to meet Liu Sheng's.
The powerful Shen Family could be crushed in an instant by his mere say-so.
As if squashing an insect.
Shen Tong harbored no doubts about his power.
"Rest easy, Chief Eunuch—Shen Tong will stay loyal."
Right then, his vengeful fire finally extinguished, with the Shen Family's fate hanging over him.
One misstep, and Liu Sheng wouldn't even need to act; his own brother would strike him down without mercy.
Later, Liu Sheng signaled Wu Guang, receiving a subtle nod in return.
"Come on, Shen Tong!"
"Thank you!"
Shen Tong appeared completely broken, laced with despair.
"I'm sorry, Xuan'er!"
Once they departed, Wu Jin whispered, "Why not just have the Chief Eunuch eliminate him?"
Raised in Stone Cave, he believed removing threats meant swift death.
There, fatalities were commonplace, and his father's influence ensured no probes.
"You little punk!"
Liu Sheng teased, "Shen Tong's a peak Dao Realm sixth-layer expert—his burst strength matches the seventh layer. You can't just off a powerhouse like that!"
"But disloyalty could spell danger for the Chief Eunuch, right?"
"Danger?"
Stone Cave upbringing had forged his mindset too crude and violent.
Forever defaulting to murder!
Now it clicked why Wu Guang kept him confined—this was likely a key factor.
"His family is his weakness, his foundation—he won't risk it. Even if he tries, they'll stop him cold. You... tag along with me soon; lingering here breeds excessive murderous aura!"
"Perfect timing—the Burial Place opens shortly. Your power's low, but it won't be an issue. I'll assign protection."
Wu Jin possessed real potential.
Plus, his straightforward disposition suited him as an executioner. Grooming him into Chen Xuan's personal assassin would prove ideal.
"Father claims the Burial Place is far too perilous, with no intention of allowing me in."
"Didn't I say I'd send someone to guard you?"
"I'll discuss it with Wu Guang!"
...
Three days passed, and suddenly a profound drum thundered.
Liu Sheng suddenly snapped his eyes open.
"Has it started?"
Now at the Heavenly Rift!
Wu Guang's forces gathered there, staring intently across the Heavenly Rift.
Chen Xuan, as a Dao Realm powerhouse, stood right at the front.
"These Guard Army troops aren't ordinary!"
The Heavenly Rift splits into four parts, Wu Guang's army holding the central zone—the heart of the conflict.
Naturally, these spots rotate; the four Grand Generals take turns switching positions.
From the side of his vision, Chen Xuan spotted the Guard Army soldiers, faces firm and unyielding, every hundred fusing into a single cohesive unit.
"Is that black armor forming the array?"
Based on the aura they radiated, it rivaled the early Dao Realm stage.
Additionally, a subtle, almost invisible link tied the small teams together.
"The teams can swiftly merge into a stronger array, it seems."
Thanks to his array mastery, even without full details, he grasped the general idea.
Chen Xuan's eyes shifted to the Heavenly Rift, spanning at least ten thousand meters and cloaked in thick mist.
His sharp vision pierced no farther than a hundred meters.
Furthermore... the mist even impeded Spiritual Power.
"Perfect!"
He'd been mulling over sneaking into the Stone Race—this opportunity was ideal.
Hidden in the fog, he could pull off the deception undetected!
