"It’s the Rule of Stars that I have integrated into my eyes, which is why it has such an effect."

"Like that Miss Yao’Er of the Shadow Guard?"

"Her?"

The Hall Master laughed, "You little rascal, you really underestimate me!"

He shook his head, helplessly.

"Eh?"

Chen Xuan looked embarrassed, "Sorry, Hall Master, I spoke hastily without thinking it through, please forgive me."

"Forget it!"

The Hall Master waved his hand, not really angry, and patiently explained to him, "That little girl had virtual reality rules integrated by the National Preceptor, but only about one ten-thousandth of it."

"But it’s already very impressive."

"However, my eyes contain the complete Star Dao, and the Rule of Stars is a full tier stronger than virtual reality."

"Now you understand!"

Hiss—

Chen Xuan drew a sharp breath, the complete Star Dao had been merged into his eyes.

No wonder his eyes gleamed like stars.

He’d asked such a foolish question.

He felt mortified himself.

"By the way, is there a limitation to merging rules into parts of the body?"

Chen Xuan knew very little about rules, and now encountering the Hall Master, he certainly had to seize the chance to ask.

"There isn’t, it depends on one’s ability to bear it."

"If you can’t bear it, then the consequence is exploding physically, which has happened many times before, so you must understand, never be greedy!"

"Hmm! I understand!"

Chen Xuan nodded, the Hall Master was giving him a reminder.

"Take this!"

The Hall Master then took out a key, "This is the key to the Star Hall Library Pavilion. You should know very little about this aspect, go read it yourself, if you don’t understand, come ask me."

The Star Hall Library Pavilion!

Chen Xuan hurriedly took it, "Thank you, Lord Hall Master."

"Go, when Xiaoqi wakes up, I will teach him, it could take some time."

"Yes!"

Chen Xuan glanced at Xiaoqi, then left the place.

After he left, the Hall Master waved his hand, shielding the entire main hall, but his gaze lingered in the direction Chen Xuan departed, "Could it be him?"

...

Inside the Ritual Department.

"What? Did the Hall Master really say that?"

"Nonsense, I wouldn’t joke about such a thing!"

Zhan Tian replied irritably.

"What now?"

Faced with his inquiry, Liu Sheng fell into silence.

"Speak up!"

Seeing Liu Sheng so slow to speak, and not the least bit anxious, Zhan Tian got infuriated.

"Do you think you can persuade Your Majesty?"

Liu Sheng slightly raised his eyes to look at him.

"At least we can try, right?"

Persuasion starts by speaking up, doesn’t it?

"Relax, anything we thought of, Your Majesty has surely considered as well, otherwise it wouldn’t be so easy to go to war, just wait!"

"You...!"

Seeing the subtle change in Zhan Tian’s expression, Liu Sheng felt something was not right, but couldn’t say exactly what.

"I think our Majesty wants to solve all issues before taking the final step."

"So he might have a greater chance!"

Liu Sheng slowly opened up.

That day he found it strange, even though Emperor Yu asked them to discuss, it felt like he’d already decided in his heart.

Thinking back, it wasn’t just his suspicion.

"Are you saying Your Majesty had long intended to clear these dangerous lands, and now that the Stone Race is weak, with Duke Yuan’s suggestion, he seized the opportunity?"

"Yes!"

Liu Sheng slowly nodded, then he looked outside, "The heart of the emperor is unfathomable indeed!"

"Then... do we not interfere?"

Even though he said that, Zhan Tian was still worried, almost all gold-clothed members of the Three Judicial Departments had been deployed, along with half white-clothed ones, if they’re dead, the Three Judicial Departments would barely have a breath left.

"That’s out of the question!"

Liu Sheng shook his head, it’s necessary to make some preparations, "Both of our avatars should go, but whom to send with?"

With this, he felt a bit at a quandary.

It mustn’t be exposed, it must be stealthy, acting at the last possible moment.

In an instant!

Both spoke almost simultaneously, "That young man!"

...

"Damn it!"

In the space fissure, Chen Xuan was very displeased, sending him to the Stone Cave, looking at the array diagram in his hand, with Liu Sheng’s and Zhan Tian’s avatars hidden within.

He was happily reading in the Star Hall Library Pavilion, when he suddenly received a message from Liu Sheng, asking him to immediately go to the Ritual Department.

Ultimately, they made him do the hard work.

He felt utterly screwed!

For anyone else, he wouldn’t care less.

But with two old men opening up, he couldn’t refuse even if he wanted to.

Both owed him great favors.

"Fine, fine, just playing the errand boy!"

Chen Xuan sighed helplessly.

He was just very sentimental!

However, he didn’t head straight to the Stone Cave, since the army moved too slowly, going early wouldn’t make a difference, so he stopped by Bright Moon Mansion to instruct Lang Fei, asking him to message when the army reached Bright Moon Mansion.

Then he returned to the Primordial Realm.

With such a grand effort from Great Yu, as its adversary, Hidden Kill certainly got the news immediately.

Tangyun Lake.

Yuan Qing reached Zhou’s side, and detailedly explained the deployment of forces by Great Yu to the Stone Cave.

"Qin Yu wants to act against the Stone Cave?"

Zhou furrowed his brows slightly, puzzled over Qin Yu’s sudden action.

He knew the situation of Great Yu better than anyone.

Especially as the Ten Great Dangerous Lands almost dragged Great Yu to its demise.

Which was why Hidden Kill could thrive so carefree.

"According to the information, Liu Sheng acted and killed two Stone Race patriarchs, the Stone Race is now at its weakest, perhaps that’s why they chose to act now!"
