Seeing Zhao Guang walking toward the couch, Zhao Haoran looked up at him and said. “You! Stand!”
Zhao Guang’s mouth twitched, but he had no choice but to remain standing. Since the moment he heard about Zhao Haoran’s return, he knew he was in trouble.
Zhao Guang didn’t tell Zhao Haoran about the incident with Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi. After all, Zhao Haoran retired and no longer minded the business of the East Ocean Dragon Clan.
However, the recent domestic business decline of Mingri Group brought down its stock prices while Mingri Group’s international business abroad was still prospering. The weird turn of events roused Zhao Haoran’s suspicion, and he decided to inquire about the affairs of East Ocean.
That was why Zhao Guang had to stand on the side while Hao Ren talked to Zhao Haoran sitting in the chair.
“What technique are you cultivating?” Zhao Haoran stared at Hao Ren and asked.
He knew Hao Ren was at Zhen-level by looking at his aura, but he didn’t understand latter’s cultivation technique. Usually, with the water-elemental dragon core, Hao Ren should emit pure water-elemental essence. However, Hao Ren emitted five kinds of nature essence.
“Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll,” Hao Ren answered.
“Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll…” Zhao Haoran repeated the name silently. He searched for this technique in his memory but could find nothing.
After ruling East Ocean for hundreds of years, he was familiar with the treasures in the dragon palace. However, he had no memory of this technique.
“Show me,” Zhao Haoran stared at Hao Ren and said.
He was used to ordering people, but his special aura and his decisiveness in the meeting room made Hao Ren admire him.
Swoosh… One hundred sixty sword energies shot out of Hao Ren’s body.
Green, red, yellow, white and blue; five-colored sword energies instantly filled the office. The sword energies flew around freely with shining light, and each of them could easily break steel energies!
The fact that Hao Ren could control 160 sword energies at the same time in the limited space was a feat in itself.
“That’s enough.” Zhao Haoran waved his hand, not even alarmed by the dancing sword energies around him for one bit.
Swoosh… The sword energies instantly returned to Hao Ren’s body.
Zhao Haoran frowned as he remembered that this Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll was a technique that he got from a top-tier Nascent Soul Realm cultivator when he was involved in the war in the human cultivation world hundreds of years back.
The details of the fierce battle were still fresh in his memory since thousands of sword energies built an array formation covering the entire sky, and he almost died in it.
Due to the aggressiveness and power of this technique, Zhao Haoran took this technique scroll that he didn’t know the name of and put it in the Profound Cultivation Palace in the East Ocean Dragon Palace.
To his surprise, after hundreds of years, this cultivation technique got the name, Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll, and was chosen by Hao Ren.
In fact, when Zhao Haoran took the technique, he had tried to cultivate it. However, its requirement of balancing the five-elemental essence within one’s body was something impossible for Zhao Haoran who was already at top-tier Qian-level.
Clap!
Hao Ren put his right hand on the desk.
The desk was made of solid purple sandalwood, but under Hao Ren’s cultivation strength, it quickly disintegrated!
Withdraw!
Swoosh… The shattered wood pieces in Hao Ren’s hand shot into the wall one meter away like sharp needles!
Release!
The wood-elemental essence extracted from the desk traveled through his meridians and came out from his left hand in the form of surging pure water-elemental essence!
Convert!
The mist on the desktop evaporated gradually.
After these movements, Hao Ren slowly pulled back his hands.
Zhao Haoran stared at Hao Ren calmly; his gaze never wavered.
However, he was stunned on the inside!
“This cultivation technique is miraculous! It could convert the five-elemental essence, withdraw and release the five-elemental essence outside of one’s body, and could even unleash thousands of sword energies!”
It was also Zhao Guang’s first time watching Hao Ren use these abilities. In the past, he only knew that Hao Ren could release 16 sword energies which damaged his backyard. He didn’t imagine that Hao Ren could now easily control 160 sword energies and even convert the five-elemental essence in nature!
Both Zhao Haoran and Zhao Guang didn’t know that Hao Ren’s sword array could increase the power of his sword energies by several times!
“If that is all, then it is ok,” Zhao Haoran said.
Hao Ren smiled.
Indeed, he only showed a part of his power. The Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll was hard to cultivate; with his ordinary talent, if not for Lu Linlin and Lu Lili’s help in adjusting the five-elemental essences in his body, he could never reach Zhen-level.
“Is Zi still in the dragon palace?” Zhao Haoran asked Zhao Guang abruptly.
“Yes, Father.” Zhao Guang nodded.
Although Zhao Guang was almost 1,000 years old and Zhao Guang was only a bit older than 200 years, Zhao Guang was Zhao Haoran’s son.
“It’s right to ground her for sprouting nonsense,” Zhao Haoran said.
“She will come out tomorrow,” Zhao Guang continued.
Only in her teens, Zhao Yanzi was like an infant among the young dragons. Zhao Haoran sounded stern, but Zhao Guang knew that deep down, Zhao Haoran loved her very much.
“Then release her tomorrow.” Although Zhao Haoran was not happy with Zhao Guang’s performance in the domestic business market, he didn’t want to damage his son’s authority as a father.
“And…” Zhao Guang glanced at Hao Ren.
He was still not sure about Zhao Haoran’s attitude toward the engagement between Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi.
“I haven’t found a good solution for this matter yet. As far as I know, only grandmasters of the Soul Formation Realm have the power to transplant dragon cores,” Zhao Haoran said after he saw Zhao Guang’s gaze.
“Soul Formation Realm cultivators…” Zhao Guang and Hao Ren were both stunned.
There were less than ten Soul Formation Realm cultivators living in the mortal world, and they were rarely seen.
Besides, the human cultivators and dragon cultivators had entered a cold war hundreds of years ago. The grandmasters of the Soul Formation Realm could live as long as the world, enjoyed the same dazzling lights as the sun and the moon, and could get any treasures in the world they wanted…
Xie Yujia!
Zhao Guang immediately thought of Xie Yujia.
Only she had the contact of a Soul Formation Realm cultivator, but it was hard to say if the grandmaster would be willing to help or not.
To some extent, Zhao Yanzi was Xie Yujia’s disciple and thus had some connections to this grandmaster. “If she could help…” Zhao Guang began to hope.
“Even I have never seen a grandmaster in the Soul Formation Realm, let alone you guys,” Zhao Haoran said.
Even in the fiercest battles during the war between the cultivators a few hundreds of years back where Nascent Soul Realm cultivators appeared one by one, none of the Soul Formation Realm cultivators showed up.
After all, if they had joined the war, the situation would totally change since the heavenly dragon on the side of the Dragon Tribe would be forced to participate as well. It would have escalated into a great war involving both earth and heaven.
“If the elemental attribute of the dragon core didn’t change due to your unique cultivation technique, I would have cut open your dantian and taken out of the dragon core before planting it into Zhao Yanzi,” Zhao Haoran continued with his eyes locked on Hao Ren as he stood up.
His cold gaze seemed to have the power to pierce Hao Ren, and his words and intention were almost the same as Zhao Kuo’s.
Zhao Kuo stuck with kindness and mercy while Zhao Haoran honored strength. In this world, there was no right and wrong; there was only strong and weak!
“If you can’t reach Dui-level in a month, I’ll dig out the dragon core from your body,” Zhao Haoran said calmly.
Hao Ren’s cultivation technique was unique, but it didn’t mean that Zhao Haoran had high hopes for him.
Although the dragon core had experienced some changes in Hao Ren’s body while he absorbed the five-elemental essence, it could still be put back into Zhao Yanzi’s body.
The only drawback of this plan was that Zhao Yanzi would need lots of elixir pills to improve her physique, and she wouldn’t be able to reach a very high realm in the future.
For Zhao Haoran, the top priority was his granddaughter, not Hao Ren.
“Father…” Zhao Guang tried to dissuade him.
“Before the time limit, you are still a member of the East Ocean Dragon Clan. If anyone from the West Ocean Dragon Clan dares to touch you, I’ll slaughter them all! If any of the elders dare to utter any objection, I will kill them immediately!” Zhao Haoran glared at Hao Ren and emitted his overwhelming suppression.
Hao Ren was forced back half a step by that aura alone!
“But… If you can’t reach Dui-level in a month, I won’t show any mercy. I’ll take your life myself!”
Thud! Thud!
Zhao Haoran marched out of the office with the walking cane in his hand.
Before Zhao Guang left with his father, he looked back at Hao Ren helplessly.
This was Zhao Haoran, overbearing, protective, and fierce!
He didn’t kill Hao Ren right now because he realized that Hao Ren had reached Zhen-level in a short time with a stable foundation; he knew Hao Ren had the potential of reaching higher realms.
As to if Hao Ren could actually reach Gen-level first and then Dui-level in one month, Zhao Haoran didn’t care!
In fact, even the most gifted dragon cultivator couldn’t achieve such a fast elevation speed!
After Zhao Haoran and Zhao Guang left the office, the murderous spirit remained in the room.
Even the mosquitoes in the room hid in one corner, too afraid to move.
Standing in the office, Hao Ren thought back to the gaze of Zhao Haoran, knowing that the old dragon king, who had been a fierce warrior in battles, wasn’t bluffing about killing him.
Ruff… It was lunchtime, and Little White was asking to get out of Hao Ren’s necklace to take a walk near the library.
Even though he wasn’t at the school, Hao Ren let it out.
However, when Little White rolled onto the carpet and glanced at the chair which Zhao Haoran had sat on, it immediately shot back into Hao Ren’s necklace.
Even Little White, a Bin-level demon Beast, didn’t dare to face the strong murderous spirit!
