Chapter 439: Girls All Around……

Hearing such news, not only did Hao Ren’s face lit up, Zhao Guang and Zhao Hongyu were also pleased.

Due to the different origins and experiences of the inspectors, although they were all inspectors of the Dragon God Shrine, they still had their own preferences.

For example, Su Han grew up in the East Ocean Dragon Palace. Therefore, on some issues, she was more lenient toward the East Ocean Dragon Clan. As for Qin Shaoyang, he obviously favored the West Ocean Dragon Clan. Him being an inspector in the East Ocean City certainly would make the East Ocean Dragon Clan somewhat uncomfortable.

Now that Hao Ren replaced Qin Shaoyang and became an inspector of the East Ocean City, this was certainly good news for the East Ocean Dragon Clan.

A while back, East Ocean brutally defeated West Ocean, and Hao Ren was so outstanding in the Dragon God Shrine’s general exams that he even defeated Qin Shaoyang.

The East Ocean Dragon Clan was having so much momentum, and the Dragon God Shrine felt that Qin Shaoyang, who couldn’t even defeat East Ocean’s Fuma, had no chance in holding back the East Ocean Dragon Palace, so they had made some adjustments in strategy.

“There is nothing else. I’m going back,” Su Han said.

“Inspector Su, it’s better for us to go together. We also have to head back,” Zhao Guang said.

“Sister Su, let’s go together!” Zhao Yanzi held Su Han’s arm and quickly found a backing.

The fact that she left bite marks on Hao Ren’s shoulder was exposed, so it was only safe for her to stay with Su Han.

Zhao Hongyu took a look at Zhao Yanzi and then at Su Han. As expected, she didn’t say anything.

“Let’s go back.” Hao Ren put away the inspector token and looked around. “Where is Zhen Congming and Little White?”

“Little Daoist Zhen is still asleep; I will go call him right away,” Premier Xia said.

“There’s no need; I’m already up.” Zhen Congming appeared at the door of the Yangxin Palace in his white shirt, and Little White was with him.

He still had that proud look on his face as if everyone owed him money.

“Gongzi…” Lu Linlin and Lu Lili moved closer to Hao Ren’s side.

They gently picked up Hao Ren’s palm and checked the balance of elements in Hao Ren’s body.

Being held by their two soft hands, Hao Ren couldn’t get away from them even if he tried. He heard Lu Linlin and Lu Lili’s surprised tone, “Gongzi, how come you fell half a realm?”

Xie Yujia, who tightly followed Hao Ren, heard this statement and immediately looked at Hao Ren in worry.

However, Lu Linlin and Lu Lili continued, “But Gongzi’s foundation is actually much better than before! The five-elemental nature essences are perfectly balanced!”

Hao Ren cultivated the Light Splitting Sward Shadow Scroll. The more balanced the five-elemental nature essences were, the higher his power. During this time, Hao Ren was exhausted from fighting, and the balance in his body was already thrown off.

Now, Lu Linlin and Lu Lili found that the five-elemental nature essences in Hao Ren’s body were like being packed in grids, neatly arranged.

How could they imagine that Hao Ren had just swallowed a level 9 elixir pill? Any kind of level 9 elixir pill had the magical effects of cleansing the flesh and reshaping the bones, not to mention the fact that old Grandma gave Hao Ren a level 9 elixir pill that specialized in repairing the body.

If it weren’t for Hao Ren’s serious physical injuries, a level 9 elixir pill was enough to increase Hao Ren’s realm! Of course, reliance on pills wasn’t stable

“Today is the Dragon Boat Festival, and there should be a dragon boat race. Let’s go see it with Grandma,” Xie Yujia said softly.

Zhao Yanzi who was walking in front of them. Perhaps it was her superb hearing or her full attention of the dialogue between Hao Ren and Xie Yujia, she suddenly turned around and asked, “Dragon boat race?”

Xie Yujia didn’t expect Zhao Yanzi to hear her conversation with Hao Ren. She went blank for a moment and nodded. “Dragon boat race happens every year during the Dragon Boat Festival. But this year, several cities are competing together.”

“Dragon boat race…” Zhao Yanzi thought for half a second and raised her head. “Mom, I also want to see the dragon boat race!”

“You haven’t done your homework yet!” Zhao Hongyu immediately glared at her.

“I’ll do it in the evening, and there’s time…” Zhao Yanzi looked at Zhao Hongyu and begged.

“It’s been a long time since we met up with Hao Ren’s family. Alright, I’ll take you there,” Zhao Hongyu softened and said.

“Yes! Yes!” Zhao Yanzi was so excited that she jumped up and down.

She then swung Su Han’s arm and said, “Sister Su, why don’t you come and see the dragon boat race too!

“I…” Su Han hesitated. “Okay.”

It was not her style to spend half a day on activities other than cultivation. But thinking of the fact that the Dragon God Shrine’s general exams kept her mood anxious for quite a few days, it was alright to relax.

Seeing Su Han agree, Zhao Yanzi immediately talked to the others, “Elder Sun, Elder Lu, and Elder Xingyue let’s go!”

“I still have the task of rainfall today; I’m afraid I cannot join you,” Lu Qing apologized.

Elder Sun and Elder Xingyue smiled and nodded. Seeing that the princess invited them, they had to be respectful and agree when they could.

“Premier Xia, you come too!” Zhao Yanzi immediately looked to Premier Xia.

Premier Xia moved his gaze to Zhao Guang and hesitated. He wanted to go out; when they went to the Dragon God Shrine, he was particularly happy. However, since his duty was to manage the East Ocean Dragon Palace, he couldn’t leave his post without authorization.

“Let’s go together,” Zhao Guang said.

“Thank you, Dragon King!” Premier Xia, whose face was filled with vicissitudes of life, laughed like a child.

“When we’re outside the palace, don’t call me Dragon King!” Zhao Guang reminded him.

“Yes, Dra… understand, Mr. Zhao.” Premier Xia caught himself and changed how he addressed Zhao Guang. He went on land very few times, but he often communicated with Elder Lu and Elder Sun. Those two elders interacted with the dragon king on land, so he picked up a few things from them.

Premier Xia’s words and expression caused everyone to laugh.

Zhao Guang also smiled helplessly. Hao Ren showed his supreme power in the Dragon God Shrine, but he gave the best mystic crystal to Zhao Kuo, making him hopeful of becoming a Heavenly Dragon. This series of events allowed Zhao Guang to sweep away the depression from before and feel happy.

“Those bite mark…” Xie Yujia walked beside Hao Ren and touched Hao Ren’s wrist with her hand. “Did Zi bite you?”

Hao Ren turned to look at her and smiled embarrassedly.

Xie Yujia looked up and stared at Zhao Yanzi. She felt somewhat unpleasant and thought, “Zhao Yanzi is too willful. Judging from the marks, the bites were deep!”

“It’s okay, she was just playing around,” Hao Ren looked at Xie Yujia’s expression and couldn’t help but explain.

“You are still protecting her…” Xie Yujia whispered softly. Then, she took out a bottle from her bracelet, poured out a pale green elixir pill, and put it into her mouth to gently crush it.

“What are you doing?” Hao Ren looked at her, puzzled.

“Don’t move!” Xie Yujia spat the crushed pill into her hand. Mixed with her saliva, she applied it to Hao Ren’s shoulder.

Hao Ren suddenly felt a dash of cool and refreshing moisture penetrating into his skin and bones.

“Zhen Congming taught me this. Crush the detox elixir pull and applying it to the skin could boost blood circulation and recovery,” Xie Yujia said.

Hao Ren reached out and touched his shoulder, and he then pulled up his collar and felt deeply moved.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Even Lu Linlin and Lu Lili praised, “Big Zhumu is so considerate!”

“There’re still some injuries on the face,” Hao Ren said while peeking at Xie Yujia.

Bam! Bam!

Lu Linlin and Lu Lili’s hearts were shattered. “Gongzi is so naughty!”

“Look at how sneaky you are. You are responsible for the injuries on your face.” Xie Yujia pouted and stuffed a detox elixir pill into Hao Ren’s hand.

Hao Ren smiled and put the detox elixir pill into his mouth. After he had crunched it, he applied it to the injuries on his cheek and the corner of his eye.

Later, he would see his parents. The bruises on his face weren’t acceptable.

Hao Ren and Xie Yujia’s actions would definitely cause other human cultivators to faint. The precious level 4 pills were used as healing ointments…

“If I knew earlier, I’d applied it for Gongzi,” Lu Lili whispered and pouted as she looked at Hao Ren’s face.

“Girl, you think of naughty things all day.” Lu Linlin reached out and turned Lu Lili’s ear.

“Ahhh…” Lu Lili was dragged to the front by Lu Linlin.

The group walked to the gate of the dragon palace and took out their own dharma treasures, created energy spheres, and got back on land.

After getting back on land, Hao Ren first gave Grandma a call.

“Ren, you came back?” Grandma’s voice sounded on the phone.

“Eh, where are you, Grandma?” Hao Ren asked.

“I’m here in the Eastern Plaza by the Yellow Dragon River with your parents, and we are watching the dragon boat race!” Grandma shouted.

“Okay, we’ll be there soon!” Hao Ren hung up.

“In the Eastern Plaza,” Hao Ren turned to Zhao Hongyu and said.

“Let’s go!” Zhao Hongyu took out her River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting and opened it.

They stepped on the painting that was more than ten meters long and flew to the Eastern Plaza.

The River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting released colorful lights as it flew up the Yellow Dragon River, gliding in the wind. Wasn’t it more majestic than any dragon boat?

They arrived at the Eastern Plaza in a blink of the eye. Hao Ren immediately spotted his parents and Grandma in the crowd.

Among the crowd, there were also some dragon cultivators mixed in. However, their realms were not high. They were from river and lake clans, and they were only here to join in on the fun.

The River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting landed behind a commercial building near the Eastern Plaza. Then, Zhao Hongyu removed the energy sphere and led the group to the riverside.

First time being in such a lively place, Premier Xia seemed excited. He took out a pair of sunglasses and put them on, and he suddenly looked cool.

“Grandma!” Hao Ren saw her and shouted.

“Ren! Ren!” Grandma turned and saw Hao Ren. She then waved her hand above her head.

“Grandma…” Zhao Yanzi dashed over and ran into Grandma’s arms.

“Little Zi, Grandma missed you so much!” Grandma said as she squeezed Zhao Yanzi’s face.

Hao Ren was speechless as he thought, “You say this every time Grandma; can’t you change up the lines?”

“Grandma!” Xie Yujia also walked over and called out sweetly.

“Hey, Yujia!” Grandma reached out her hands and took Xie Yujia into her arms.

“Grandma!” Lu Linlin and Lu Lili came together and called with joy.

“Ay, Linlin, Lili, you’re here too!” Grandma opened her arms again and took in Lu Linlin and Lu Lili.

Hao Ren looked at Grandma and thought, “You’re old now, so please show some restraint. Don’t be so greedy; your body is not big, to begin with, and you still desperately want to take all four of them in your arms.”

Sure enough, the two skinny arms of Grandma couldn’t wrap around the four girls, so she let go of them all at once.

“Auntie.” Zhao Hongyu came over gracefully and greeted.
