Chapter 509: Meeting Hao Ren’s Friends!

Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
From afar, the troops of South Ocean and North Ocean stood in formations with fluttering flags. It was a magnificent sight.
Looking from the main gate of the West Ocean Dragon Palace, the soldiers standing in dense formations looked like chess pieces, and one couldn’t see the end of them.
After a series of losses, the West Ocean Dragon Clan was defenseless. With each of them bringing nearly 300,000 soldiers here, South Ocean and North Ocean were, in fact, trying to take control of the West Ocean Dragon Clan.
Although Ho Ren defeated the level 8 demon beast and obtained two favors by saving the Commanding Generals of South Ocean and North Ocean with detox pills, that wasn’t enough for the other two oceans to yield to him when he only had 50,000 soldiers here.
East Ocean Dragon Palace was the farthest from the West Ocean Dragon Palace since the Demon Sea separated them. Even if the East Ocean Dragon Clan sent out troops at this moment, they would arrive too late since South Ocean and North Ocean would have finished occupying the areas by then.
According to the plans of the Third Prince of South Ocean and the Second Duke of North Ocean, once they controlled the West Ocean Dragon Palace, they would obtain all the territories of the West Ocean Dragon Clan.
The Crown Prince of West Ocean was too weak to resist South Ocean and North Ocean.
Although the overall military force of the West Ocean Dragon Clan was once great, most of their elite troops had died in the war with the East Ocean Dragon Clan, including several powerful elders of Qian-level and Kun-level. Right now, the West Ocean Dragon Clan was too weak to do anything.
“As close neighbors of the West Ocean Dragon Clan, I think South Ocean and North Ocean can handle the aid of the West Ocean Dragon Clan.” After some consideration, the Second Duke of North Ocean said to Hao Ren.
Hao Ren smiled lightly and remained silent.
Guang! Guang… Huge waves crashed from the ocean surface to the bottom.
“Left General – Chen Rong, Right General – Lu Yuanshou, Central General – Hu Chunyi from the East Ocean Dragon Clan have arrived with 4500,000 soldiers to aid West Ocean!”
“Ha!”
Close to half a million soldiers shouted in unison.
The magnificent sound waves created huge ocean waves.
The Third Prince of South Ocean and the Second Duke of North Ocean, who had been confident a moment ago, looked at each other knew that they were out-calculated.
The East Ocean Dragon Clan had sent 500,000 soldiers!
The South Ocean Dragon Clan and the North Ocean Dragon Clan only dared to send 300,000 soldiers each, but the East Ocean Dragon Clan sent 500,000 soldiers!
From their formations and auras, they knew that these 500,000 soldiers of East Ocean were the elites!
They looked at Hao Ren in bafflement, surprised that this young commanding general of East Ocean would be so bold as to occupy the territory of the West Ocean Dragon Clan by force while South Ocean and North Ocean had to hide their intentions with the excuse of helping West Ocean to fight the demon beasts.
“I think it’s settled then. With East Ocean’s 500,000 elite soldiers, the area from the Demon Sea to the West Ocean Dragon Palace will be as safe as it can be, and the West Ocean Dragon Palace can begin its rebuilding without any worries.” Hao Ren said as he glanced at Premier Xia, Elder Sun, and Elder Lu beside him. “Can you three stay here and talk about the details while Zi and I head back?”
Premier Xia, Elder Lu, and Elder Sun bowed with cupped hands and said, “Farewell, Commanding General!”
“Liu Yi, you stay here for the time being and take the responsibility of guarding the surrounding areas of the West Ocean Dragon Palace.” Hao Ren glanced at Liu Yi and said lightly.
“Yes, Commanding General!” Liu Yi answered in a resonant voice.
Hao Ren’s intention was evident by leaving an elite troop around the West Ocean Dragon Palace.
South Ocean and North Ocean silently lamented the sharpness of East Ocean. Faced with 500,000 elite soldiers, they didn’t have the strength to object.
The West Ocean Dragon Palace had been shaken to such a pathetic state after messing with the East Ocean Dragon Clan, and they didn’t want to follow that path.
“Zi! Zi!”
Standing dazed at the gate, Zeng Yitao yelled again immediately.
Not even looking at him, Zhao Yanzi took Hao Ren’s hand and stepped onto the River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting with Hao Ren. Then, they flew out of the ocean.
She never liked Zeng Yitao who had been an arrogant brat. More importantly, her grandpa, Zhao Haoran, died after the fierce battle when West Ocean invaded East Ocean, and Zhao Yanzi was lenient toward him by not beating him viciously.
The River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting rushed out of West Ocean and bypassed the Demon Sea by flying above South Ocean. With level 8 demon beasts at the edges of the Demon Sea and countless demon kings, big and small, lurking in the center, Hao Ren couldn’t take the risk with Zhao Yanzi by his side.
While they took the route above the South Ocean Dragon Clan’s ocean area, they were stopped and questioned. After Hao Ren showed his identity, South Ocean didn’t block them.
It took Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi a lot of time because they went in a big circle. When they returned to Purple Bamboo Island, it was already nighttime.
Seeing the return of the River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting, Zhao Hongyu and Zhao Guang immediately came out.
“How did it go?” Seeing only Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi on the River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting, Zhao Guang asked.
“The demon beasts were defeated. Four generals and the 500,000 soldiers are stationed in West Ocean while the two Elders and the Premier are discussing the details in the West Ocean Dragon Palace.”
“Ok…” Zhao Guang nodded. The picture was clear to him; with the decline of West Ocean, East Ocean couldn’t let South Ocean and North Ocean take all the benefits. By sending 500,000 elite soldiers without hesitation, Hao Ren helped East Ocean gain the upper hand at the very beginning since the number of soldiers they had at West Ocean were South Ocean and North Ocean combined.
If the East Ocean Dragon Clan had hesitated due to their conflicts with West Ocean, all the benefits would have been divided between South Ocean and North Ocean, which meant that East Ocean wouldn’t have any say on the important issues.
Thinking back on Hao Ren’s decisions, Zhao Guang felt like he was a bit similar to Zhao Haoran.
“Uncle, Auntie, I’ll borrow the River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting for something else,” Hao Ren said while Zhao Guang was in deep thought.
“Where are you going?” Zhao Yanzi asked immediately.
“I’m going to watch a basketball game, and I’m running late,” Hao Ren said.
“Take me with you!” Zhao Yanzi said quickly.
“Why do you have to follow me everywhere?” Hao Ren looked at her, complaining.
“I’m not following you. I just want to watch the basketball game!” Zhao Yanzi retorted.
Seeing them bickering, Zhao Hongyu snickered and waved at them gently. “Go ahead!”
“We’re off then!” Hao Ren ran into the palace and changed back into his regular clothes before stepping back onto the River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting.
Whoosh! They shot toward the north swiftly.
Hurriedly, Zhao Yanzi grabbed Hao Ren’s arm, startled at the fast speed.
As a primitive treasure taken from the Nine Dragon Palace, the River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting was very fast when it was activated.
After using the River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting for some time, Hao Ren was now experienced with it. He had tried with each of the five-elemental nature essences, and the speeds were the same.
However, now that he injected hundun energy, a combination of all five types of nature essences, into the River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting, the speed increased by ten times abruptly.
After all, the treasures from the Nine Dragon Palace was the most powerful when chaotic energy powered them. Zhao Yanzi rode on her mom’s River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting often, but she had never experienced such an insane speed!
Standing behind Hao Ren, she wrapped her arms around Hao Ren’s waist with her whole body leaning against his back, knowing it would be a disaster if she fell from this height at such great speed.
The River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting entered the land area and flew toward the big city swiftly.
“Slow down! Slow down!” Zhao Yanzi grabbed Hao Ren’s waist tightly with both hands and yelled.
This speed was faster than planes! In fact, this speed was similar to the speed when planes were falling from the sky in a crash!
“We’ll be late if we slow down!” Hao Ren was thinking about Zhao Jiayi’s basketball game. For him, the game was no less important than the military operation at the West Ocean Dragon Palace.
Boom!
The moment the River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting landed, Hao Ren instantly put it away.
Zhao Yanzi’s legs turned into jelly when she stepped onto the ground.
Suddenly, she realized that her chest was pressed against Hao Ren’s back. While blushing, she immediately pushed him away.
“Come on! Let’s go!” Hao Ren took her hand and ran like a madman.
Still out of breath, Zhao Yanzi was dragged into the wild dash. She was furious at the way Hao Ren treated her, his fiancée!
The ticket inspectors and security guards were already standing at the entrance of the Beijing Olympic Stadium. It was obvious that the game had begun.
With a snap of his fingers, a red energy sphere engulfed him and Zhao Yanzi. He had become a skillful user of this technique.
When he pulled Zhao Yanzi through the entrance, the ticket inspectors and the security guards only felt a gust of wind but saw no people passing them.
Bang! After entering the aisle of the stands, Hao Ren put away the energy sphere and successfully came into the stadium without paying for tickets that were already sold out.
The stadium was built according to the newest standards. Under the dazzling lights, it felt like they were in a big NBA game.
Hao Ren looked up at the scores on the big screen, and it showed: Jinghua University – 36: East Ocean University – 26.
He used his nature essence in full, but he had still missed half of the game.
“Ren! Ren!” Sitting on the stand and licking a popsicle, Zhou Liren spotted Hao Ren suddenly and waved his hand enthusiastically.
His voice was so loud that it even overpowered the loud music in the stadium, drawing glances from the nearby audience members.
Hao Ren immediately ran over while pulling on Zhao Yanzi.
Zhao Yanzi rolled her eyes, feeling exhausted.
Almost all the guys from their class sat in this row.
Biting into the popsicle, Zhou Liren was a bit surprised to see that the girl Hao Ren pulling behind him was not Xie Yujia but someone else.
“I couldn’t get through to you on the phone, but you are finally here,” Zhou Liren yelled while he looked at Zhao Yanzi.
He felt like he had seen this girl somewhere, but he wasn’t sure. She looked like the arrogant little girl whom he had seen before, but she looked well-behaved today…
“Your cousin?” Zhou Liren couldn’t hold back his curiosity and asked Hao Ren.
“I’m his fiancée!” Zhao Yanzi gave Zhou Liren a sharp glare and pulled Hao Ren into the aisle of the stand.
Seeing Zhao Yanzi’s fierce look, Zhou Liren shrunk his neck and decided that this girl was indeed the one who had come looking for Hao Ren in the school with a poster at the beginning of last year!
“How is it?” Hao Ren sat down and asked.
“Not good. Our team is not in good shape and has been totally dominated by Jinghua University. Besides, Zhao Jiayi is a bit nervous today since today’s game is being broadcasted live nationally on the sports channel.”
While he talked, he peeked at Zhao Yanzi who was sitting by Hao Ren’s side.
Zhao Yanzi was still panting with anger with her small chest rising and falling. Seeing Zhou Liren’s glance, she immediately gave him a fierce look.
“Well, well… This girl called herself Hao Ren’s fiancée, and I guess Hao Ren’s good days will soon come to an end… Oh, wait a minute. Maybe Hao Ren did something to her, and that’s why this girl declared herself as Hao Ren’s fiancée…” All kinds of thoughts appeared in Zhou Liren’s head.
