Chapter 354: Fight Back!

Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated

When Hao Ren returned to the lobby on the first floor, he saw Elder Lu, Elder Sun and Elder Xingyue standing in the hall.

Here outside of the dragon palace, Elder Xingyue was wearing a long, black dress and a suit jacket, looking fresh and beautiful.

Short and lean, Elder Sun was dressing in his usual traditional Tang suit. Beside him, White-haired and white-eyebrowed, Elder Lu looked straight and tall in a suit, his everyday outfit.

Standing together, the three of them looked like the figures on the cover of a fashion magazine.

“Elder Sun, Elder Lu, Elder Xingyue!” Hao Ren greeted them while he walked toward the gate.

“We’ll drive you back to school,” Elder Sun said with a genial smile.

“Oh? Have you been waiting for me?” Hao Ren was a little surprised.

“Yeah. Elder Lu and I will go to South Ocean and North Ocean respectively, and Elder Xingyue will return to East Ocean. We’ll drop you off first,” Elder Sun nodded and said.

Since they couldn’t fly in the city, they had to travel in a car like ordinary people.

Hao Ren didn’t refuse Elder Sun’s offer and followed them out of the building.

Their car was still the spacious and luxurious Bentley.

Hao Ren had noticed that Elder Xingyue, Elder Sun, Elder Lu, and Premier Xia who was stationed in the dragon palace were close to each other, and they stood firmly with Zhao Guang.

Therefore, they were closer to Hao Ren than the other elders.

“I’m afraid the old dragon king will turn the world upside down this time,” Elder Sun said while he drove.

“Now we’ll see how North Ocean and South Ocean react to his challenge,” Elder Lu nodded and said.

Elder Xingyue frowned, but she remained silent.

The times have changed. Without Zhao Kuo, East Ocean was less powerful than before. Although Zhao Haoran was fierce, he was old, and South Ocean and North Ocean each had several mid-tier Qian-level cultivators

“In the past 200 years, the growth of the Dragon God Shrine has been faster than we expected, and it now has almost the same strength as that of the four ocean dragon palaces. If they get involved, the situation will get more complicated,” Elder Lu continued.

The Dragon Tribe established the Dragon God Shrine after the human cultivators moved to Fifth Heaven to prevent making the same mistakes the human cultivators had made. The function of the Dragon God Shrine was to prevent the dragon cultivators from killing each other and thus giving the human cultivators the opportunity to defeat them.

The main tasks of the Dragon God Shrine were to watch the human cultivation sects on and above Fifth Heaven as well as to regulate the behavior of the dragon cultivators from all the forces.

Since the Dragon God Shrine was an organization established by all five-elemental dragon clans, it would select the best cultivators from the entire Dragon Tribe. That was why it had grown so fast. In only 200 years, its overall power was equivalent to if not exceeded that of the four ocean dragon palaces which had been around for thousands of years.

If it intervened in the conflicts between the four ocean dragon palaces, the situation would get trickier.

“How is Su Han’s injury?” Elder Sun asked abruptly.

“She has not fully recovered yet. By sending Qin Shaoyang here, the Dragon God Shrine intends to keep an eye on our East Ocean,” Elder Xingyue finally spoke.

In the past, Su Han was the inspector of East Ocean City, so the East Ocean Dragon Palace didn’t feel that much pressure from the Dragon God Shrine. However, the arrival of Qin Shaoyang cast a shadow on the complicated situation in East Ocean City.

Everyone including Hao Ren knew that Qin Shaoyang favored the West Ocean Dragon Palace, which meant that Dragon God Shrine was leaning toward the West Ocean Dragon Palace as well.

However, Zhao Haoran’s return broke this new balance.

Right now, the East Ocean Dragon Clan would take on the North Ocean Dragon Clan, the South Ocean Dragon Clan, the West Ocean Dragon Clan, and even the Dragon God Shrine to fight back!

It gave up the option of diplomatic negotiations entirely and went directly to war!

“The old dragon king has his plans. Let’s wait and see.” With that, Elder Xingyue closed her eyes and placed her hands together into a cultivation gesture, entering the state of cultivation.

She took any time she had to cultivate, even in a car. Her passion for cultivation was almost the same as Su Han’s.

While the car drove forward, Elder Sun and Elder Lu stopped their discussion. After all, they were about to travel to North Ocean and South Ocean to issue the notice of war, a mission they dreaded.

When the car drove into East Ocean University, it immediately drew the attention of the passing by students.

While the students couldn’t see through the darkened windows of the car, Hao Ren who was sitting in the car could see their amazed glances

“Elder Xingyue, please tell Su Han that we all hope that she could return soon,” Hao Ren said to Elder Xingyue suddenly.

“Ok. I’ll tell her,” Elder Xingyue said lightly.

Hao Ren hoped that Su Han could come back to teach, although it meant nothing to her.

However, without Su Han, the campus of East Ocean University lost some of its appeals.

The car stopped at the entrance of Academic Building D, and Hao Ren got out of the car. Some students immediately glanced at him.

After today’s incident, he would be at the center of attention again.

“Well… Whatever…” Hao Ren sighed slightly and waved at the three elders in the car.

He could imagine that with his family background exposed, love letters and fangirls would swarm to him.

However, Hao Ren wouldn’t linger in the school at this stage since his goal was to reach Gen-level and even Dui-level!

Only after he had become an official inspector would he understand the mysteries of the Dragon God Shrine.

He had to appear at school each day and take classes, telling the world that he was still alive! Otherwise, Zhou Liren and others would report him missing to the police.

“He is the guy who takes Little White to the library every day…”

“Right. I didn’t know he comes from such a rich family and has a Bentley driving him to and from school…”

“I told you that Little White is of a precious breed…”

“In fact, he’s quite handsome. Coming from a rich family, he would make a good boyfriend…”

Some girls gossiped in the shadow of the building while they watched Hao Ren get out of the car.

With his acute hearing, Hao Ren immediately heard their words. He smiled and ignored them as he walked toward his dorm.

“Come on and catch up with him, Little Yu. Go confess; I think he has a good impression of you…”

“What are you talking about? I just said he was ok…”

The girls hesitated and then walked toward Hao Ren.

However, when they followed him to a path in the little forest of the school, Hao Ren already disappeared.

The girls looked at each other, wondering how he could run so fast.

Meanwhile, with a red energy sphere around him, Hao Ren released Little White from his necklace and shot toward Fifth Heaven on its back.

It seemed like that was the only way to get rid of those girls. Otherwise, they might even follow him to his house by the sea.

When he went up to Fifth Heaven to cultivate, the counter attacks Mingri Group prepared were unfolding.

Returning with Zhao Haoran was a professional acquisition team that Zhao Yanzi’s Second Uncle had established overseas. The team was comprised of top experts in acquisition operations, and they could easily destroy the West Ocean Dragon Clan’s domestic businesses one by one with the abundant funds they brought with them.

The on-land businesses that the West Ocean Dragon Clan had managed for more than ten years with great effort would be dismantled in a few days!

Zhao Haoran had been a veteran in the international capital market, and he wouldn’t show mercy in the first business counter-attack after his return.

It was night, and the surrounding buildings were all dark. However, Mingri Group’s headquarter was as bright as day. All the employees were working overtime, cooperating with Zhao Haoran’s team to unleash attacks on Conqueror Group!

Meanwhile, on Fifth Heaven, Hao Ren had finished half a day of cultivation.

The valley was silent except the light snoring of Little White who was lying at the entrance of Hao Ren’s cave abode.

Hao Ren leaped over Little White and came down the steep mountain like a martial arts master, leaving no traces behind him.

In the fields, the spiritual herbs were growing well. On some of the herb leaves were a tiny layer of condensed dew, and some pretty flower buds were trying their best to absorb the surrounding mist.

Thud… Light footsteps came from one side of him. Hao Ren turned and saw Xie Yujia was walking from her cave abode to the field with the night pearl in her hand.

Under the warm light of the night pearl, Xie Yujia had a holy aura around her. At the sight of Hao Ren, she was surprised as well.

“You’re here too?” she said in a low voice.

“Yeah. I came up to cultivate. Did you borrow Zhen Congming’s flight dharma treasure?” Hao Ren asked.

“Yeah. I didn’t want to trouble you and Little White every time.” Xie Yujia nodded.

Hao Ren knew Zhen Congming’s dharma treasures were easy to use even with weak cultivation strength. Besides, Zhen Congming had rearranged the array formation here, and it was easy for him to give Xie Yujia a key to the protective array formation.

“It’s not safe for you to come to Fifth Heaven alone. Next time you want to come up, remember to ask me to come with you,” Hao Ren said.

“Ok…” With the night pearl in her hand, she slowly squatted to check the growth of the spiritual herbs.

Obviously, she was also taking a break from cultivating in the middle of the night and came to check on the spiritual herbs as a way to relax.

“Today… someone sent a Bentley to get you; who was it?” Xie Yujia asked casually while touching a spiritual herb which would curl up its leaves like a mimosa with her finger.

“Oh, it was Zhao Yanzi’s grandpa. He returned from abroad and wished to see me,” Hao Ren explained.

“Oh. How did the meeting go?” Xie Yujia asked.

“It went well.” Hao Ren said with a smile.

“It caused such an upheaval. You can’t imagine how many girls are talking about you,” Xie Yujia said in a low voice as she walked to check on another spiritual herb,

The valley was pitch black, but the moon and the stars were bright above the mountaintop. The night pearl only illuminated Xie Yujia’s face, and it was a pretty sight.

In the past few days, she had taken the Foundation Building Pills each day and had pushed her realm from level 8 to level 9 of the Qi Refinement Realm.

Of course, if the cultivators on Fifth Heaven or Sixth Heaven knew that she took level 4 Foundation Establishment Pill each day, they would be green with jealousy.

“By the way, Zhen Congming is in love,” Xie Yujia looked back at Hao Ren and said.

Pu… Hao Ren almost choked on his breath.
