Chapter 579 - Useless Disciple?!
Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
The ship flew out of the ocean and crossed the Demon Sea into East Ocean. Then, it successfully landed on the shore.
Except for inspectors, dragon cultivators could not fly here.
Therefore, when Hao Ren entered the city, he had a very wide field of vision.
Zhao Yanzi stood by Hao Ren, and she thought about the scene when Hao Ren settled South Ocean and North Ocean and felt like he was brilliant.
Hao Ren always gave in to her demands, but he was actually not weak!
He beat up hooligans who bullied her as her boyfriend, and he protected East Ocean’s interest against North Ocean and South Ocean as the Fuma. Both these identities gave her a sense of unprecedented security.
Feeling sweet inside, Zhao Yanzi felt like even the air she breathed was soft and warm.
Hao Ren’s ship flew to Zhao Yanzi’s home, which was a two-story house.
“Jump!” Hao Ren pulled Zhao Yanzi and jumped down. The purple gold hairpin had lost the support of Hao Ren’s metal-elemental and water-elemental nature essence, so it changed back to its original appearance before falling into Hao Ren’s hand.
The set of movements was smooth and graceful. If Hao Ren did not put away the purple gold hairpin in time, he would have completely rammed into Zhao Yanzi’s house.
Bam! Bam!
Following the momentum, Hao Ren held Zhao Yanzi’s hand and landed on the balcony.
Pa! Zhao Yanzi fell into Hao Ren’s arms. She was filled with the fragrance of youth.
“That was a bit rushed,” Hao Ren explained in a hurry.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Yanzi did not try to attack Hao Ren like usual. She only blushed and bit her lip before entering the house from the balcony.
She held Hao Ren’s hand and ran to the first floor.
“Mom! We are back!” Her tone made it sound like a newly-wed couple was returning home together. Zhao Yanzi’s cheerful steps proved her good mood.
Zhao Hongyu looked at them in an apron and asked, “Where is Yujia?”
“Yujia?” Hao Ren was surprised.
Zhao Hongyu looked at Zhao Yanzi and asked, “Didn’t I asked you to invite Yujia over for dinner as well?”
Zhao Yanzi pouted and did not answer.
“Forget it. I will give Yujia a call!” Zhao Hongyu glared Zhao Yanzi with a stern gaze before picking up her phone and dialing the number.
“Yujia, come and have dinner at my home tonight. I have made many dishes. Oh, you’re already home? And you’re cooking? Alright, come and visit with Linlin and Lili next time.”
Zhao Hongyu hung up the phone helplessly and stared at Zhao Yanzi with a stern expression.
Zhao Yanzi pouted and let go of Hao Ren’s arm. Then, she held the straps of her backpack and ran to the second floor.
“Where are you going?” Zhao Hongyu asked her.
“Doing homework!” Zhao Yanzi answered in displeasure. Then, she ran to her room and shut the door forcefully.
Zhao Hongyu sighed slightly before looking at Hao Ren and asking, “Where did you go with her this afternoon? Did she force you to go shopping?”
“No. We went to the West Ocean Dragon Palace, and Zi accompanied me,” Hao Ren said.
In general, Zhao Yanzi behaved well today, so Hao Ren must say a few good words for her.
“How is it over there in West Ocean?” Zhao Hongyu’s interest was piqued.
“The reconstruction work has just begun, and Liu Yi is patrolling over there. The Senate has been established, and the elders are handling the West Ocean Dragon Palace’s recovery stage. As for internal affairs, they are dealt with by the premiers of the four ocean dragon clans together,” Hao Ren said.
“Okay!” Zhao Hongyu nodded.
This arrangement diffused the power of the four ocean dragon clans; they could hold each other in check. However, East Ocean still had the upper hand.
“Also, I collected some West Ocean Mystic Ices from the West Ocean Dragon Palace. I let Liu Yi hand them over to Premier Xia,” Hao Ren said.
“Premier Xia will take good care of them.” Zhao Hongyu nodded at ease. The East Ocean Dragon Palace could not take everything, but since it was up to the East Ocean Dragon Clan to divide them up, East Ocean would get more benefits.
Hao Ren thought of the same thing, so he handed the West Ocean Mystic Ices over to the more experienced Premier Xia. He did not care about mystic crystals of this quality; he only cared about seven-core five-color lotus.
Hao Ren also wanted to talk about Xu Ke, but he felt like this was a private matter which did not require the intervention of the East Ocean Dragon Clan. Therefore, he switched the topic. “How’s uncle doing?”
“He is handling some business at the office, and he is coming back soon.” Zhao Hongyu looked at Hao Ren and said, “Are you going to help me cook, or are you going to stay with Zi upstairs?”
Hao Ren looked toward the stairs and replied, “I’ll go up and check on her.”
Zhao Hongyu looked at Hao Ren as he went up the stairs and shook her head with a bitter smile. Initially, she asked Zhao Yanzi to call over Xie Yujia so that she could appease the two, and she wanted to apologize for Zhao Yanzi and ask Xie Yujia to be a little more tolerant. However, it seemed like the plan had failed.
While Hao Ren took Zhao Yanzi home, Xu Ke had returned to his home as well.
Xu Ke lived on the 16th floor of a high-end 18-story residential building.
In a room filled with all kinds of study material, there was a mirror.
Xu Ke chanted a spell, and the mirror gradually lit up.
An old man with dark eyebrows and white hair appeared in the mirror.
“Your disciple is useless; I did not expect Hao Ren to be that powerful. He took away the Supreme Shield! Please punish me, Master!” Xu Ke kneeled in front of the mirror, and his face was filled with regret.
“Damn boy, you intentionally lost the Supreme Shield because you want me to intervene. Now, you’re crying in front of me?” The old man in the mirror said calmly.
“Master, please believe me! I really did my best! That Hao Ren threw out a purple gold hairpin and overpowered the Supreme Shield immediately!” Xu Ke said in a hurry.
“Humph! You didn’t use your full force!” The old man in the mirror stared at Xu Ke. He thought for a moment and murmured, “Purple gold hairpin… It could overpower the Supreme Shield… I have not heard of this dharma treasure before… Could it be a supreme spiritual treasure as well?”
“Master, I also spotted a female cultivator in East Ocean University. I wish to engage in dual-cultivation with her. I hope Master will complete my wish!”
“All these years, I have never seen you fall in love with a girl. How is this girl’s quality? Is she part of our metal-elemental dragon clan?”
“She is a one-in-a-million Ultimate Yin Body Type, and she has a lot of talent. It was love at first sight!”
“Ultimate Yin Body Type… That is rare. Speaking of which, you should not provoke Inspector Su Han in East Ocean University,” the old man said suddenly.
“This Su Han is nothing but an abandoned child of one of our gold-elemental dragons, and the East Ocean Dragon Clan adopted her,” Xu Ke said.
“She has already reached Qian-level, so she is not weak. An elder tried to call her back into the metal-elemental dragon clan, but she rejected. We tried to find more about her parents but got nothing. So… be careful; don’t touch her.”
“Then… the Supreme Shield…” Xu Ke asked hesitantly.
“That young man’s realm is not enough to tame a supreme spiritual treasure. I don’t know what kind of treasure that purple gold hairpin is, but it sounds interesting. Next week, your sixth senior brother will visit East Ocean City. If you don’t want to try your best, ask him to intervene.”
The mirror flashed and returned to normal.
