Chapter 1400 - 642: Return to Molan Mansion! (3)

The two brothers immediately left the Three Judicial Departments and got into the carriage back to the mansion.

...

"Oh? You still remember to come home? I thought you’d gone missing!"

As soon as Chen Sheng had one foot over the threshold, Bamboo Garden started teasing him.

"Mom..."

Chen Sheng quickly walked up to her and bowed respectfully. "It’s been really busy lately. Big Brother hasn’t gone back either!"

"Right, where’s my dad?"

"Is he cultivating or...?"

"Did something happen?"

Bamboo Garden reined in her joking. She knew her own children best; this definitely meant they’d run into trouble, and the two brothers couldn’t solve it on their own. Otherwise they wouldn’t have come back to look for their dad.

After all, both kids were the type who hated losing.

Chen Sheng didn’t hide anything and roughly explained what had happened.

"Experts that suddenly showed up?"

Bamboo Garden’s Liu Mei arched slightly. Experts don’t just appear out of nowhere!

This really was abnormal!

"Go to Prince Xuan’s Mansion."

"Dad went to Prince Xuan’s Mansion? What’s he doing there if nothing’s wrong?"

Chen Sheng was a bit puzzled.

Meanwhile Bamboo Garden was secretly amused. The reason she hadn’t told him that Chen Xuan and the others had returned to Prince Xuan’s Mansion was precisely to give him a surprise.

Of course, it was also to give Chen Xuan a surprise.

"Go there and ask yourself, then you’ll know. It’s only a few steps away."

"Alright, then I’ll head over first."

Chen Sheng didn’t forget to bow, then hurriedly dashed out of the mansion toward Prince Xuan’s Mansion.

"Little Brother..."

Just as he reached the main gate of Prince Xuan’s Mansion, he saw Chen Jin already stepping in with one foot and quickly called out.

"Bro.."

Chen Jin turned his head. "My mom told me to come to Prince Xuan’s Mansion, said Dad is here!"

"My dad’s here too!"

The two of them froze, but then both guessed that their fathers were here cultivating. Chen Sheng said, "Come on, they should be in Grandpa’s study!"

"Oh, look who’s here, the two little brats."

In Qiuyuan, Chen Xuan was lying on the grass, enjoying the sunshine and someone’s feeding.

"Figures. You haven’t come for so long, looks like the Three Judicial Departments really are a bit busy!"

Su Wanqiu felt a little distressed.

In her eyes, the two were still little ones; she didn’t want them worn out.

"Heh heh!"

Chen Xuan laughed. Those two little rascals were both fifth level Dao Realm experts, not weak at all.

"Hm... they went to the study!"

"Heh heh!"

"They won’t get in!"

Chen Xuan immediately smirked wickedly. Since Xiaoqi and Chen An were comprehending Emperor Realm Cultivation Techniques, to avoid them being disturbed he had set up an Array.

But seeing that the two little ones seemed anxious, he lifted a hand and grabbed at the air.

The two people who had been in the study instantly appeared in Qiuyuan, without feeling a thing.

They were even still talking to each other.

"Brother, what do we do?"

"Why is there an arr—"

Chen Jin was still speaking, but suddenly stopped. "Eh.....Grandpa!!!"

He had finally noticed Chen Xuan lying on the grass.

"Grandpa’s here..."

Chen Sheng was also pleasantly surprised. The two immediately came before Chen Xuan. "Greetings, Grandpa. Greetings, Grandma Su!"

"Eh...."

Chen Xuan stretched lazily, then slowly sat up. "What are you two doing, all flustered and rushed? And you two barely ever go to the Primordial Realm. Grandpa is very displeased!"

He put on a stern face!

"Grandpa, you’ve been in seclusion this whole time. We were afraid of disturbing you!"

Chen Jin said with a smile.

"And what about me then!"

Su Wanqiu chimed in with Chen Xuan.

"Uh—"

"We’ve just been too busy. We practically live in the Three Judicial Departments now."

Chen Sheng hurried to explain.

Compared to Chen Jin, his excuse sounded a bit better.

"Oh....."

Chen Xuan deliberately dragged out the sound, a face full of disbelief. "Come and tell Grandpa what you’ve been so busy with lately."

He wanted to see how the two little rascals were handling things!

Of the third generation, there were only these two. Sooner or later, Great Chen would pass into the hands of one of them.

The two brothers exchanged a look. Perfect timing!

Dad and the others were all in seclusion, so going to Grandpa was even better.

Chen Sheng directly sat down and started pounding Chen Xuan’s back, while Chen Jin followed right behind.

"So there really is something up!"

He said slowly, then roughly narrated what had happened over this period.

"Experts that suddenly appeared?"

Chen Xuan was intrigued as well.

The odds of this happening were about the same as choking to death while drinking water.

Besides, back then Chen Yunze had specially gathered information on all Dao Realm and above experts across the Eastern Continent.

So it was even less likely that such experts would suddenly appear.

"Right, what about the other mansions?" Chen Xuan asked.

"Ah— that, I don’t know!"

Chen Sheng lowered his head, not daring to look at Chen Xuan. He hadn’t thought that far.

But unexpectedly, instead of the scolding he’d anticipated, Chen Xuan merely told him to contact the other Three Judicial Departments and report back afterward, then sent the two of them away.

"Still too green!" Chen Xuan sighed.

"Bamboo Garden said after the two of them became directors, they’ve been completely relying on themselves to feel things out, with no one teaching them."

This was also the intention of Xiaoqi and Chen An.

If they couldn’t even handle a mere Three Judicial Departments, then forget about managing the entire Great Chen in the future.

"Mm, not bad, that’s how it should be!"

Chen Xuan nodded in great satisfaction, most satisfied of all with how they were educating the two little rascals.

"About these experts that suddenly appeared..."

Su Wanqiu was a bit worried whether the two little ones could handle it, and even a little concerned for their safety.

"It’s fine!"

Chen Xuan waved his hand. "In the Eastern Continent, no one can hurt them."

He still had that much confidence.

Back then he had quietly sealed a strand of Spiritual Power in each of their bodies, which would only activate when their lives were in danger.

And if it really did activate, as long as it was within the Eastern Continent he could sense it instantly and appear at their side in a flash.

So as long as the two stayed in the Eastern Continent, absolutely nothing would happen to them.

Of course, he hadn’t told anyone about this.

Only... Chen Xuan’s expression narrowed slightly. He felt something was off.

If the same thing was happening in the other mansions, then it meant there was a force in the Eastern Continent they didn’t know about, hidden this deeply... that kind of means was impressive!
