Emperor Yu's words were final.
As a wise ruler, within the entire Great Yu Dynasty, apart from Emperor Qin, he was confident not to be inferior to any other emperor.
Therefore, he would not allow anything shaful to happen under his rule that would disgrace Great Yu.
This was his bottom line!
"Hand over the person to within three days!"
...
A few people left the Imperial Palace, their expressions heavy. Even Zhan Tian, who usually did not get along with Duke Liu, refrained from mocking him today.
Outside the Imperial Palace!
Duke Qin stopped, turned, and looked at them, "This matter concerns the face of Great Yu; no matter what grudges you have had before, you must put them aside."
"Otherwise, don't bla for being rude!"
The head of the Three Dukes, also a mber of the Imperial Family, with strength at the Peak of the Eighth Layer of the Dao Realm, all these gave him the confidence to warn them face-to-face.
On a regular day, Zhan Tian might still joke around.
But this ti, he and the others all nodded.
On usual matters, it could be anything, but when it ca to matters concerning the pride of Great Yu, they all knew their limits.
"Then I'll leave it to you all."
Seeing this, Duke Qin's tone also softened, even slightly bowing to them.
"Duke Qin, there's no need for this."
"Duke Qin...."
...
The few of them were also surprised by Duke Qin's gesture and quickly spoke up.
"Then I shall leave first; although it's just one person, it's enough of a headache!"
With that, one person left directly through the air.
Following this, Duke Liu and Duke Yuan also left one after another.
"Well, it's just us two now, should we go to yours or mine?"
Zhan Tian looked at Liu Sheng.
"Let's go to yours, have so drinks!"
"Alright!"
Zhan Tian nodded, as Liu Sheng rarely drank; if he did, it ant sothing was on his mind.
....
Three Judicial Departnts, in Zhan Tian's private courtyard.
A pot of wine, a few dishes, couldn't be simpler than this.
"Didn't expect this is how it turned out!"
Liu Sheng, who had not spoken the entire way, was the first to open his mouth.
Then he downed a cup of wine, his eyebrows knitted instantly, "What kind of wine is this, so strong!"
"Good wine; if I didn't see you troubled, I wouldn't have taken it out!"
Zhan Tian drank a cup himself, shouting in delight.
"Aren't you worried at all?"
Liu Sheng asked back. This matter concerns the dignity of Great Yu; in Qixuan Hall, his face was somber, but back here, he seed like a different person.
"What's the use of worrying? The strongest in my Three Judicial Departnts is Ye Chen, and that's it!"
"You should worry about your Ritual Departnt."
Zhan Tian smirked.
His Ritual Departnt really had no one.
"Ha ha!"
Liu Sheng chuckled lightly, "Did you forget that kid?"
At these words, the smile on Zhan Tian's face froze.
"Damn, I really forgot."
He slapped his forehead, "Right, with that freak of a kid around, why do you look so worried?"
"That kid mastered the Rule of Space!"
What else do you want? I really want to beat him up.
Dumb brain!
"Forgot, forgot, mastering the Rule of Space ans his power will be suppressed at the place of burial."
Only then did Zhan Tian realize.
"Ah!"
Liu Sheng sighed, if it wasn't for this, it would have been much better.
In hindsight, he should have reminded him back then, telling him not to comprehend the Rule of Space first.
But back then, he just wanted to see how far Chen Xuan could go, who knew this would happen.
"However, with that kid's strength, even if suppressed, he wouldn't be too weak, plus..."
Saying this, Zhan Tian paused, looking at him, "Don't forget, that kid hasn't fully attained Jade Bone yet, if he fully attains Jade Bone, just with his physical body, he could directly confront the Peak of the Seventh Layer of the Dao Realm!"
"Even if those other continents are monstrous, strength at the Peak of the Seventh Layer of the Dao Realm should be able to compete to so extent, right?"
"Not necessarily!"
Liu Sheng said solemnly, "Although you can't exceed the Fifth Layer of the Dao Realm in the burial ground, in real strength...for those prodigies, the Peak of Seventh Layer might just be a threshold."
"That exaggerated?"
Zhan Tian was a bit in disbelief.
Being able to possess the strength of the Peak of the Seventh Layer at the Fifth Layer of the Dao Realm is not monstrous enough?
Could it be the Eighth Layer?
Impossible!
"Your Majesty said the Eastern Continent is at the bottom!"
"Great Yu has produced this kid, and the atavistic Qin Ying."
"For those other continents to produce a few exceptional individuals shouldn't be that hard, right?"
Upon hearing this, Zhan Tian fell silent.
Chen Xuan's strength now was definitely no weaker than the Peak of the Seventh Layer of the Dao Realm, and the sa was true for the atavistic Qin Ying.
Great Yu had a few more, even if not at the Peak of the Seventh Layer, they weren't too far off.
Thinking about it this way, perhaps the Peak of the Seventh Layer was just a threshold.
"Then what do we do?"
"So does this an Ye Chen is just trash?"
Zhan Tian was speechless, feeling like his n hadn't even reached the others' threshold.
This was really a ss!
"Aren't you very smart? Think about it."
"Get lost!"
Zhan Tian glared at him. He had thought it simple, thinking that even if they were strong, the Peak of the Seventh Layer was about right.
But from Liu Sheng's tone, those other continents might very well have individuals not weaker than the Eighth Layer.
"First figure out a way to let that kid achieve Jade Bone."
"Among the Three Judicial Departnts... Ye Chen definitely won't do, this is no joke, think it through!"
Finishing, Liu Sheng rose and left.
Leaving behind Zhan Tian, whose face was more bitter than if he had eaten trash, sitting there in a daze!
"Damn!"
After a long while, Zhan Tian cursed fiercely.
That damn guy had long figured out who, yet vetoed his people.
In the end, he was dood!
"What to do now?"
Zhan Tian's gaze turned towards the direction of the Library Pavilion.
If Ye Chen wasn't good enough, the other three brats definitely weren't either.
Bamboo Garden?
Zhan Tian shook his head, knowing from his understanding of His Majesty, it was surely taken into account.
"Damn!"
anwhile, at Liu Gong Mansion, Liu Daoxin also wore a worried look.
"What to do?"
Looking at Duke Yuan.
"I don't know, but I already have soone in mind."
Duke Yuan's words took him by surprise, he had soone, "Who?"
