“Hehehe… Little Han, how come you have time to visit me in this remote and poor place?” Qin Shaoyang’s voice came from the west.
Su Han furrowed her pretty eyebrows and said to the elders from the Earth-Elemental Dragon Clan, “Tell me where the karst cave is, and you can prepare that 1,000-year Seven-Colored Snow Lotus for me.”
“The karst cave is at Luoying Peak of the Sky Mountain, and it’s extremely dangerous. Inspector Su Han, please be extra careful.” The leader of the elders lightly nodded and took off with the other elders.
The two Inspectors didn’t appear to be friendly with each other, and the Earth-Elemental Dragon Clan did not want to get involved.
After all, the lotuses were grown in the dangerous area on the Sky Mountain, so they weren’t worried about Su Han taking many lotuses.
As soon as they left, Qin Shaoyang appeared right in front of Su Han and Hao Ren.
Su Han looked at him coldly, and she put away her sword and landed with Hao Ren.
Qin Shaoyang also put away the light around him and stared at Su Han who was incredibly charming. He said, “Little Han, you are in such a good mood; you are on a trip to Sky Mountain with your little assistant.”
Obviously, he had noticed the light mark on Hao Ren’s forehead. He was surprised and jealous of the fact that Hao Ren became Su Han’s Assisting Inspector.
“I don’t have time to chat with you,” Su Han said to him, “You may go back as soon as you hand over two 1,000-year Seven-Colored Snow Lotuses.”
“I should do it just because you told me to? I was letting you win when we were in East Ocean, but we are on my turf, the Sky Mountain, now!” Qin Shaoyang looked at Su Han arrogantly as his tone got impatient as well.
Shoo! The white sword reappeared in Su Han’s hand!
Su Han’s personality was like this; she would choose to solve the problem physically without bullsh*tting.
The golden weaving shuttle appeared in Qin Shaoyang’s hand as well. He looked serious as he never dared to underestimate Su Han’s strength.
Boom!
The white sword smashed into the golden weaving shuttle, and the ice and snow on the Sky Mountain slightly shivered!
Million Phantoms! Qin Shaoyang’s golden weaving shuttle spun, shining golden light all around as golden weaving shuttles were everywhere!
However, different from Hao Ren’s Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll where it could potentially generate millions of sword energies, all these golden weaving shuttles in the air were illusions to cover up the location of the real weapon.
“Piece of cake!” Su Han murmured and whipped out her white sword. Millions of swords also appeared in the air.
“Your realm is high, but your sword technique sucks as usual!” as Qin Shaoyang said that, the golden weaving shuttle shot straight at Su Han at the same time.
Millions of swords and shuttles crashed into each other in the air! As soon as one got destroyed, another would be created.
“What are you waiting for, Hao Ren? This is not a 1v1 battle! Come on!” Su Hao shouted at Hao Ren who was just watching from the side.
Hao Ren realized that he was too focused on watching and forgot to help. He immediately created a grey hundun sword energy and shot it at Qin Shaoyang.
He was only able to throw it like a grenade before. However, since he had broken through to Li-level, he was able to control the sword energy much better!
Qin Shaoyang was mad, but he couldn’t help but panicked; he didn’t expect to be in a 1v2 situation. Then, he realized that Su Han never played by the rules. Plus, the hostility between them was already obvious.
For the battles between Inspectors, as long as there was no death and no interference with the Inspectors’ job, the Dragon God Shrine wouldn’t get involved at all!
If Hao Ren were just a cultivator who attacked the Inspector, he would have been punished by the Dragon God Shrine. However, there was no need to worry about it since he was an assistant to Su Han now.
His hundun sword energy shot at Qin Shaoyang quickly. Qin Shaoyang remembered the fight that happened at Zhao Yanzi’s birthday party and didn’t dare to underestimate Hao Ren. Therefore, he covered his palm with Nature Essence before trying to block Hao Ren’s attack.
Pa… The sword energy exploded in Qin Shaoyang’s palm and made his arm numb!
Five-Elemental Lightning!
Qin Shaoyang covered his arm in surprise. Meanwhile, Su Han’s white sword slashed toward his shoulder with no mercy!
Su Han’s sword shouldn’t be able to harm him at all if she were alone, but the situation was completely different since there were two of them!
Without saying anything, Hao Ren created another hundun sword energy and threw it at Qin Shaoyang! Pa!
It exploded on Qin Shaoyang’s chest and burned a hole in his shirt!
Qin Shaoyang took five steps back, and Su Han went forward with her sword and created another wound on his arm.
“Lightning Grenade! You allowed him to use such a powerful Dharma Treasure!” Qin Shaoyang backed up and shouted in surprise.
He didn’t think that Hao Ren who was very weak could harm him, so he assumed that Hao Ren had thrown out the extremely powerful explosive Dharma Treasure, ‘Lightning Grenade’!
Although Qin Shaoyang had always kept his temper under control as an ‘elegant gentleman’, he finally lost it. He jumped away from Su Han’s sword with one hand covering the wound and the other pointing at Hao Ren. “Let’s him battle me one-on-one if you dare!” he shouted.
Su Han suddenly stopped attacking and said, “Ok, but you need to hand over those two 1,000-year Seven-Colored Snow Lotuses if you lose.”
Qin Shaoyang took a deep breath, and the wound quickly healed. He looked at Hao Ren and then at Su Han, knowing that she didn’t really put all her force in that attack just now.
Shoo!
A white sword energy shot directly at Qin Shaoyang!
Hao Ren was worried about Zhao Kuo, so he didn’t want to waste any time. He went straight at it since he heard that Qin Shaoyang wanted to fight him one-on-one.
Qin Shaoyang blocked this sword energy with his golden weaving shuttle. Then, another yellow earth-elemental sword energy shot toward his face.
Hao Ren learned something from the fight with Su Han last time: if it weren’t possible to win by force, then he got to win by quantity!
Shoo! Shoo! Shoo! There went another three sword energies!
As soon as Qin Shaoyang blocked them with his golden weaving shuttle, there came another five!
Su Han returned to Hao Ren’s side and whispered as she put away her sword, “Beat his spirit so he won’t be bothering us when we pick the lotuses!”
“Ok!” Hao Ren shot ten more sword energies of different elements at Qin Shaoyang with all his fingers.
When he leveled up from Kan to Li, the amount of Nature Essence he was able to absorb and use was several times more than before! The sword energies were shot in all directions and hit some of the stones and trees around them.
Bom! Bom! Bom! Bom! The sound of explosions resonated in the sky.
Qin Shaoyang was surprised at the improvement in Hao Ren’s strength. In just a short period, Hao Ren has grown so much. If he had a year or two…
Hao Ren got more impatient when he thought of Zhao Kuo’s critical status. He didn’t have much time left, so he released all of the Nature Essence in his body!
Su Han walked to Hao Ren and grabbed onto his wrist lightly.
Hao Ren was just feeling exhausted, but a wave of Nature Essence poured into his body all of a sudden!
It felt just like when he did the landscape painting with Su Han!
Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll, absorb! Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll, release!
The sword energies that were only the thickness of a little finger suddenly enlarged into the thickness of a fist!
Waves of sword energies of Xun-level, which were close to Kun-level, dashed towards Qin Shaoyang like waves of the ocean!
They were guided perfectly in regard to which direction to go!
Every time Hao Ren swung his hands, ten sword energies would shoot out.
It felt like Qin Shaoyang was dealing with thousands of arrows that were flying at him!
Qin Shaoyang was busy defending. When he turned to Su Han and saw her arm touching Hao Ren’s arm, he was even more triggered!
Bom! The golden weaving shuttle was knocked away by a blue sword energy all of a sudden!
Another sword energy went over his head and messed up his hairstyle, leaving him in a complete mess.
Although he was a Kun-level Master, he couldn’t handle the attacks from a dozen Xun-level Masters at the same time! At the moment, Hao Ren was playing the role of several masters!
Su Han supplied the ammo, and Hao Ren made the shots; the two of them were a perfect team! Su Han knew that her sword technique wasn’t excellent and couldn’t get them the victory quickly. Therefore, she had decided to borrow Hao Ren’s hands to deal with Qin Shaoyang!
Bom! Another sword energy went by Qin Shaoyang’s neck and ran into the hill behind him, and the top of the hill immediately broke into pieces.
Qin Shaoyang began to sweat at the scene, imagining what could have happened if the sword energy went through his neck…
Hao Ren took back the rest of the sword energies in excitement. It was easy to learn the techniques recorded on the Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll, but it was tough to cultivate and advance in realms with it.
However, as long as he could reach a high realm, the endless amount of sword energies could definitely challenge someone who was more powerful than him.
Su Han slowly let go of Hao Ren’s arms and asked Qin Shaoyang, whose hair was a complete mess, “Who is the winner?”
Qin Shaoyang sneered without saying anything.
It was obvious that he was no match. Even though Su Han gave Hao Ren the Nature Essence, she wasn’t involved in the actual fight.
“Hand over the Seven-Colored Snow Lotuses,” Su Han said lightly.
The fact that Su Han came to cause trouble on his turf and her little assistant put him into such a mess made Qin Shaoyang furious.
Although he didn’t know what kind of secret elixir Su Han gave Hao Ren to improve his strength so quickly, he knew that he had completely failed today.
There was nothing that Qin Shaoyang could do to Hao Ren since he had backing from Su Han! However, since Hao Ren was already halfway in the Inspector System, Qin Shaoyang could always find an excuse to cause trouble for him!
Su Han looked very gentle, but she could be vicious and violent if she wanted to. Qin Shaoyang was drawn by her charm although he knew that she was dangerous.
At the moment, he couldn’t defeat Hao Ren and Su Han, so he gritted his teeth and took out two lotuses from his Xumi Ring before throwing them to Su Han.
Su Han caught them and handed them to Hao Ren after some examination.
The petals of these two lotuses were completely white, but there weren’t black fruits in the middle! Instead, there were seven-colored crystals inside of these lotuses!
“Mystic Crystal, Mystic Crystal! So, this is what it looks like!” Hao Ren felt the strong Nature Essence inside the 1000-year Seven-Colored Snow Lotuses in his hands.
“Put them in the storage space to prevent Nature Essence leakage,” Su Han reminded Hao Ren.
“Ok,” Hao Ren immediately put them in the space inside his necklace without hesitation.
Su Han didn’t pay attention as she thought that the space inside the necklace was about the same as the storage space inside an ordinary Xumi Ring. She would be very surprised if she found out that the space was as large as a room!
Qin Shaoyang didn’t stick around after the defeat and left sneakily. He had lost to Hao Ren twice in a roll now, and he blamed it all on his bad luck.
“Seven-Colored Snow Lotus is one of the ten best ingredients for making elixirs, and the 1,000-year lotuses are even rarer,” Su Han said as she took out her white sword again and stepped on it.
Hao Ren followed her up the sword after it expanded in size. He knew that their next destination was Luoying Peak. They would go ask the Earth-Elemental Dragon Clan for the last lotus if they couldn’t find enough on the peak. The Northwest Earth-Elemental Dragon Clan only had one left since Qin Shaoyang took the other two. Su Han didn’t want to push too hard if it weren’t necessary.
Su Han didn’t mention anything about Mystic Crystal when she explained the value of the Seven-Colored Snow Lotus. It seemed like she wasn’t aware that these lotuses could be used as Mystic Crystals for cultivators who were cultivating Five-Elemental Cultivation Techniques.
Hao Ren thought about it and realized that almost no one in the Dragon Tribe would choose to cultivate Five-elemental Cultivation Techniques. The Lu sisters were well experienced, so they knew such a thing. Su Han would never pay attention to such niche information.
The Mystic Crystals that couldn’t be used as Mystic Crystals would naturally become excellent ingredients for making elixirs. Although the Nature Essence was strong on them, their prices and strategic values couldn’t even be compared to West Ocean Mystic Ice.
“How many 1,000-year Seven-Color Snow Lotuses are there in the cave…” Hao Ren wondered.
