"I see now why the talent is so unrivaled!"

Liu Sheng finally understood.

The Sub-Realm is the foundation of the Supreme Domain. It's said that once every few hundred thousand years, an extraordinary genius emerges from the Sub-Realm.

And it's always one of the most exceptional kinds.

Previously, he suspected that Chen Xuan, coming from a small place, couldn't possibly have such unparalleled talent.

Now it seems... isn't he precisely from a 'small place'?

"Enough!"

Zhan Tian's tone was quite dissatisfied. "The current situation concerns the Sub-Realm, and if this kid's situation isn't resolved, he might not even get into the Burial Ground."

A person striving for a goal, but suddenly discovering the goal is gone, might just feel ruined.

Yet, the Burial Ground cannot do without him.

Otherwise, Great Yu's reputation would be hard to preserve.

"Though the Sub-Realm relates to the foundation of the Supreme Domain, an obliterated Sub-Realm isn't that crucial."

After pondering for a moment, Liu Sheng communicated telepathically.

"Do you mean to tell him?"

"Consult Your Majesty then."

After all, it involves the Sub-Realm. Even though they are the pillars of Great Yu, it's not appropriate for them to decide privately.

"Alright!"

In the room, Zhan Tian slowly opened his eyes.

"Elder Zhan!"

Chen Xuan immediately spoke, looking at him eagerly.

"Go out first, wait at the Three Judicial Departments!"

"Well... alright!"

Though anxious inside, he could only wait at this moment.

Otherwise, if he annoyed Zhan Tian, it would truly be catastrophic.

Both left the tenth floor of the Library Pavilion.

Liu Sheng and Zhan Tian left the Three Judicial Departments.

Though unspoken, Chen Xuan knew they must have headed to the Imperial Palace. After all, only Emperor Yu could make the decision that eluded them both.

"Daddy, what's wrong?"

Xiaoqi, seeing his pale face and disturbed breathing, looked at him worriedly.

"Daddy's alright!"

Chen Xuan forced a slight smile but his gaze eagerly turned toward the direction of the Imperial Palace.

"Emperor Yu...."

"If things don't work out...."

....

Zhan Tian and Liu Sheng hurried to Qixuan Hall.

"Is there something major that brings you both to me at once?"

Emperor Yu was somewhat surprised.

These two old fellows generally wouldn't visit the Hall of Three Treasures without reason. For them to both come together, it surely must be something significant.

"It's Prince Xuan from Molan Mansion."

Liu Sheng spoke.

"Him?"

Emperor Yu's brow slightly raised, recalling that he was the one Ying'Er was fond of.

Prince Xuan's position was secured at her direct request.

It had even stirred some trouble afterward.

But... what kind of major affair is this, worthy of their personal visit?

"Tell me, has this kid caused more trouble?"

Facing Emperor Yu's inquiry, the two exchanged a glance. Finally, Liu Sheng spoke up, "This kid is strong, an unrivaled existence below the eighth level of Dao Realm."

He was clever not to directly mention the Sub-Realm.

But who is Emperor Yu?

How could he not see through this trick? Still, he didn't reveal it but expressed mild surprise, "So strong?"

"Is he indeed the one you selected?"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Liu Sheng nodded slightly, "Additionally, this kid can further advance, and his son is also exceptional. Though slightly weaker now, with proper cultivation, by the time the Burial Ground opens, he won't be weaker than the Peak of Seventh Layer of Dao Realm."

Originally only slightly astonished, Emperor Yu's expression finally changed.

Both father and son are such extraordinary talents!

Such occurrences are rare, nearly nonexistent, sparking his curiosity now.

"Get to the point!"

"Yes!"

Then Liu Sheng briefly relayed the Sub-Realm matter, promptly sitting quietly awaiting Emperor Yu's decision.

"So he's coming from the Sub-Realm."

Emperor Yu suddenly realized.

Hence it made sense, as in the long history of Great Yu stretching over hundreds of thousands of years, father-son extraordinary talents had never appeared before.

Though Qin Ying wouldn't surpass him afterward, her abilities were due to ancestral bloodline and didn't count.

"Very well!"

Emperor Yu thought briefly before nodding in agreement, "But only after the Burial Ground, and he must maintain Great Yu's dignity, or I won't provide the Sub-Realm's coordinates to him."

"Indeed!"

Liu Sheng also nodded in agreement with Emperor Yu's decision.

"Moreover... if he truly repels those elite warriors, I will betroth Ying'Er to him."

"Personally issuing a decree for royal marriage!"

Instantly!

Liu Sheng and Zhan Tian were slightly taken aback.

Issuing a decree for marriage is an immense favor, Emperor Yu, having been in power so long, although he had granted marriages, only ever did so by verbal command, never by decree.

"Yes! Thanks from this old minister on his behalf for Your Majesty's grace!"

"Hmm!"

Emperor Yu nodded slightly, "Dismissed!"

Both rose, bowed towards Emperor Yu, then left Qixuan Hall.

"Unexpected!"

Walking in the Imperial Palace, Zhan Tian began to sigh.

"Are you referring to the Sub-Realm matter or Qin Ying?"

"Obviously the latter."

Zhan Tian looked at him as if he were a fool. He had guessed earlier that Emperor Yu, knowing Chen Xuan's strength, would agree regarding a Sub-Realm destined to be destroyed.

But decreeing a marriage was entirely unforeseen by him.

"Though surprising, it's understandable!"

Liu Sheng spoke calmly.

"After all, the kid is exceptionally talented, coming from the Sub-Realm, untainted background, bringing him into the Imperial Family... allows His Majesty's final move to be more assured."

"Let's hope so!"

Zhan Tian spoke slowly.

Although this kid's talent is extraordinary, he still felt something uncanny.

Integrating him into the Imperial Family... he feared Qin Ying might not control him.

Otherwise... could the heavens change at that time?

"At that moment, we old folks might not even be around, that's overthinking it."
