Unsealing: Omnipotent Father

In an open-air pavilion inside the Vermillion Sonata Castle.

"Hmmm?" Mo Xie looked at the grand hall curiously.

It had been roughly five hours since Huotian and Shenyu had entered; [If there's no ruckus, then it must've been a success... They have to do it for five days based on the Heavenly Yin and Yang Sutra... Congratulations to both of you.]

Mo Xie smiled as he continued what he's doing.

"Guuk!" Uncle Shi moaned in pain.

"Ah! Sorry, wrong point." Mo Xie spoke as he poked a needle in a wrong place.

Uncle Shi wanted to rebuke, but Mo Xie is only an apprentice, although he's an apprentice of a Medical Saint, it is only natural for an apprentice to make a couple of mistakes.

He can also see how serious Mo Xie's expression is, hence, he didn't make such a big deal out of it.

Mo Xie had made at least ten mistakes, and every one of them felt like a sword pierced his body, even an expert like him who's at the peak of Heaven Encompassing rank will feel dreadful about it.

But if he knew that Mo Xie wasn't even paying much attention to him, he would definitely cause a ruckus from rage.

"H-how many needles are you actually planning to place in my body? You've been doing that for the past couple of hours." Uncle Shi spoke as beads of sweat are stowing to appear from his body.

"Hmmm?" Mo Xie heard this and immediately looked at Uncle Shi's body. After seeing it, his expression didn't change as he continued counting the needles.

[I've placed 399 needles than needed...] Mo Xie thought as he started removing some.

"Oh, is it finish already?" Uncle Shi sighed with relief.

"No, I`m just removing the excess needles." (Mo Xie)

[Excess needles...] (Uncle Shi)

"..."

The atmosphere between them became stale as Uncle Shi looked at Mo Xie speechlessly.

"No, just that, I needed those needles to make your dantians more sensitive!" Mo Xie immediately spoke trying to explain his non-existing side.

"Oh... That's definitely something new, I have a lot of physicians as friends yet they know nothing of such a thing." Uncle Shi nodded as he added; "As expected of a Medical Saint's apprentice."

Uncle Shi continuously nodded his head in approval.

Mo Xie breaths out a sigh of relief as he continued plucking the useless needles off.

At this moment, Mo Xie looks at Uncle Shi's body which has a total number of 1,000 needles pierced on his body.

[I want to prolong the treatment... But what excuse should I make?...] Mo Xie's thoughts kept wandering.

_Tak~ Tok~ Tak~ Tok~_ (Sounds of rushing footsteps.)

Mo Xie hearing this couldn't help but looks around and saw a few people running towards the grand hall.

"Why are they in a rush?" (Mo Xie)

"Hmmm?" Uncle Shi opens his eyes and spoke; "There seemed to be an urgent matter for the Kingdom to deal with, they are carrying red flags, it means it is a top great danger for the citizens of this land."

"Oh!" Mo Xie exclaimed seemingly understand what he needs to delay his treatment.

"I`ll be back, don't move from there and start your close door isolation!" Mo Xie spoke as he immediately jumped out of the pavilion leaving Uncle Shi alone.

[It's not like you can move with all those needles in your body.] (Mo Xie)

"Oy! Wait, I`ll come too!" Uncle Shi spoke as he tried to move, but as soon as he did; "Hmmm? I can't move... my body..."

"Oh, that's just some paralyzing needles, unless you break through or I remove it, you won't be able to move from that spot, be sure to continuously deplete your Spiritual Energy through it and gather it again through the needles." Mo Xie spoke as he slowly vanishes from Uncle Shi's vision.

"That! That kid!"

Uncle Shi exclaimed, he had not heard of such a thing before, being able to break through just from expelling his own Spiritual Energy.

"It will take at least a month for me to expel my own Spiritual Energy... Do I really have to?!" Uncle Shi exclaimed but still did it.

"Hmm? ... HMM?!" But after that, he was shocked, it is actually many folds faster than dispelling his Spiritual Energy normally; "What kind of technique is this..."

After speaking, Uncle Shi started to concentrate in expelling his Spiritual Energy through the needles.

Meanwhile, Mo Xie arrives at the grand hall.

There, the once vacant throne seat is currently being occupied by a person, it is none other than Si Shenyu's father, the King of the Vermillion Sonata Kingdom, Si Baili, beside him is Shenyu and Shen's mother, Ruo Linmei.

Si Baili has the look of a 50-year-old man with a stern looking face, his beard cut short as his hair mixed with both white and black proportionally while the queen looks like someone at the age of 30, her beauty could rival even that of Shenyu's, the difference is big for mortals, but for cultivators, it is non-existent.

They are currently sitting as there are few people reporting something.

"My Lord, what do you think of it?" The one leading the group of ten scouts spoke.

"Yang Zi, What type of Demonic Beasts group are they?" (Si Baili)

"Based on the report, they are not an ordinary group of Demon Beast, most likely, they are hybrids, Astral Ligers and Saber Tooth Boars are mixed too, there are also a few Spectral Ripper with the mix, it seems to be leading the Demonic Beast's attack." (Yang Zi)

Hearing this, Si Baili frowned; "How many are there?"

"My King, it says that these group of monsters are different from the ones we've encountered before, as there are currently three groups of them with the size of 1,000 beasts each!" (Yang Zi)

Hearing this, Si Baili became a little stunned; [Demonic Beasts are actually working together to raid... this is a first...]

"There's also one other thing, our reconnaissance team had actually intercepted a small group from the Demonic Beast raid and fought with it, half of their team has lost their lives but they gave us information that seems to be extremely a mysterious case." (Yang Zi)

"What do you mean? The reconnaissance team should only deal with information, why did they engage in a battle?" (Si Baili)

"That... They are kidnapping women and children and bringing them back to someplace." (Yang Zi)

Both Si Baili and Ruo Meilin opened their eyes in shock; "Wha... Gather my ministers here, also summon half of my royal guards and take action immediately!"

Si Baili spoke as he moved his gaze towards a corner and added; "Bai Siwa, you go and lead my Royal Guards, retrieve as many hostages as possible."

"Of course dear nephew, I will." Bai Siwa is Si Baili's uncle, he's the husband of his sister, Si Shuran.

After all of that ended, everyone did as asked and started to make complete the mission they are given.

Mo Xie heard everything, but something bothered him when he looked at Bai Siwa, the eyes he gave is actually that of a person that does not respect nor values lives at all.

But after a while, he shook his head and focused on the current problem; [Sky Shattering and Heaven Encompassing tiered Demon beasts are actually raiding and even kidnapping people... this is definitely strange...]

With that, Mo Xie also pondered for a bit.

...

Meanwhile, the corner of the Vermillion Sonata Kingdom.

A carriage that seems to be adorned by multiple decorations is heading past the Kingdom to the direction of north.

"Hmmm?" A beautiful lady with red hair and red eyes muttered as she looks outside the window; "Luoyang, Huolin look over there."

The lady pointed at the distance somewhat a kilometer away from them.

The two who were called immediately looked outside and saw a group of Demonic Beasts marching towards a City.

"The strongest one amongst those Demonic Beast seems to be at the Heaven Encompassing rank lower stage," Luoyang spoke.

"Yes, but there is also a group of those demonic beasts that are marching back... and look! There are about a few hundred women and children together with them." (Huolin)

At this moment, the lady who's wearing a mask covering her face with also a red hair and eyes looked out, still, the mask couldn't hide the beauty of her face, if only, half of her face wasn't burnt.

That lady then spoke; "They seems to be bringing them somewhere, they have no injuries, it looks like they intend to bring them unharmed."

Both Huolin and Luoyang nodded at that woman's words, meanwhile, the lady who looks like 10-year old spoke; "Mom, I will rescue them."

The one she called mom nodded; "Just don't do anything reckless."

"Mmkay!" The lady spoke as she looked at the other two; "Yang'er, Lin'er, let's go!"

"Yes! Young Miss!" The two replied as they opened the carriage door and together with their Young Miss headed towards the direction of the place where the hostages are kept.
