Unstoppable Martial Arts: Starting with brother's wife and young sister-Chapter 730 - 424: Spirit Cultivator of the Third Stage of Dao
The man in green slightly trembled all over when he heard the two words "National Preceptor."
Fear appeared in his eyes.
"Understood, my lord, I will definitely infiltrate Prince Xuan’s Mansion,"
The man in green promised in a deep voice.
The task given by the National Preceptor must be completed, otherwise, as Hua Siyuan said, none of them could bear the consequences.
"You may go."
"Yes!"
After the man left, Hua Siyuan looked again in the direction of Prince Xuan’s Mansion.
"You’ve disgraced the Shadow Guards!"
A bitter smile appeared on his face.
The Shadow Guards were established by the National Preceptor.
They serve as the eyes and ears of the Great Yu dynasty.
In the Great Yu Hundred Mansions, and within those big families, there are Shadow Guards planted.
Therefore, almost nothing happening at the higher levels of the Great Yu can be hidden from the National Preceptor.
Unexpectedly, he couldn’t even insert anyone into a mere remote Prince Xuan’s Mansion.
This is not only a mockery of the Shadow Guards but also leaves him unable to explain to the National Preceptor.
Just as he had just said, the consequences...
With that in mind, his eyes sharpened, "I must see what extraordinary talents you have."
Hua Siyuan’s voice turned hoarse.
The more it seemed like this, the more he felt that this Prince Xuan was no ordinary person, and more importantly... all those who came into contact with him died without exception.
From the master he apprenticed to... to Qin Ke, who later became the head of the Three Judicial Departments.
All dead.
It left him with a sense that there were no living witnesses.
But he couldn’t find the reason no matter what.
...
In the Prince’s Mansion.
Shi Jian was furrowing his brows tightly, having been forcibly enhanced by Chen Xuan, he now possessed Late-Stage Profound Realm strength.
And... he had a good chance of becoming a powerhouse in the Dao Realm.
"Could it be those people again?"
His gaze fell on the Array Plate in his hand, which Chen Xuan had left for him to control the mansion’s formations when he left.
In recent times, the behavior of several people in the mansion had been noticeably abnormal.
One even dared to venture near Qiuyuan.
"Simply courting death!"
A cold gleam flashed in Shi Jian’s eyes.
Chen Xuan had once issued an order that anyone daring to approach the Four Gardens would be killed without mercy.
Thus, even if someone merely approached, Shi Jian would unhesitatingly kill them.
"Back when the Crane King was around, similar situations occurred."
Shi Jian began to recall.
Although much time had passed, he quickly remembered everything.
But even though the Crane King knew, he did not take action.
Instead, he displayed a look of helplessness.
He merely instructed him to pretend not to notice.
"I must inform Lord Xuan King."
Thinking it over, Shi Jian decided to report the situation to Chen Xuan.
He then sent a surge of Spiritual Power to the Communication Spirit Talisman, conveying, "Lord Xuan King, Shi Jian has something to report."
Finishing, he waited for Chen Xuan’s response.
In the Ten Thousand People Mountain Range.
Chen Xuan had just awakened from contemplation.
He sensed movement from the Communication Talisman on his person and took a look, it was from Shi Jian!
"Could it be news of the great medicine?"
He quickly applied Spiritual Power and inquired, "Is there news of the great medicine?"
In a moment, Shi Jian’s voice echoed in the study.
"Reporting to Lord Xuan King, it is not news of the great medicine, but someone trying to explore information about the mansion."
"It might be targeting you."
Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan raised an eyebrow, targeting him?
Who could it be?
"Do you know who?"
Chen Xuan asked.
"According to my speculation, it might be... people from Great Yu!"
People from Great Yu? 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢
This made Chen Xuan even more puzzled.
So it’s that person’s people, why suddenly investigate him?
But very soon, he thought of a possible reason, Qin Ying’s ancestral bloodline.
And he didn’t believe that person’s relationship with Qin Ying was unknown to them.
Previously, they might have conducted a simple investigation, but after Qin Ying’s ancestral bloodline emerged, it wasn’t just about investigating him, but also closely monitoring his every move.
"What should we do, my lord?"
Shi Jian asked.
"Proceed as usual, eliminate anyone approaching the Four Gardens without hesitation."
"As for the rest, ignore them,"
Chen Xuan said in a deep voice.
"Understood!"
Shi Jian replied respectfully, and the Spirit Talisman in his hand returned to normal.
"Husband!"
Just then, Gu Pengyou’s voice came from outside, and a moment later she entered the study.
Seeing him furrowing his brows, she immediately asked, "What happened?"
Chen Xuan did not hide anything from her and recounted the events at Prince Xuan’s Mansion.
"Shadow Guards!"
Unexpectedly, Gu Pengyou immediately uttered these two words upon listening.
"Shadow Guards? What kind of organization is that? Why have I never heard of it?"
Chen Xuan asked curiously.
"I don’t really know, but I once overheard my second uncle mention it, saying it’s a very mysterious force specifically monitoring the kings of Great Yu,"
"At the time, I thought Uncle was just talking nonsense."
Gu Pengyou explained.
After all, who would dare to monitor the kings of Great Yu?
But now it seems that these Shadow Guards are real.
She then looked at Chen Xuan and asked, "What shall we do now?"
"Hmm..."
After contemplating for a moment, Chen Xuan replied, "I will return to Moran City tomorrow to see what’s going on."
He is now intrigued by these Shadow Guards.
Isn’t Great Yu capable of subtly influencing those kings? Why are they still uneasy?
Did they create these Shadow Guards to monitor them?
Isn’t that redundant?
Or perhaps not everyone is influenced?
...
The next day, Chen Xuan left the Ten Thousand People Mountain Range and returned to Prince Xuan’s Mansion.
Moreover, he made a deliberate appearance in front of the servants.
Afterwards, he observed the light spots of these servants in Prince Xuan’s Mansion.
"This person left Prince Xuan’s Mansion."
Noticing this, Chen Xuan immediately vanished from the study, hiding within a spatial rift.
