Dragon King's Son-In-Law
Page 133
The six cultivators of the Foundation Establishment Realm were scrambling to escape when Lu Linlin and Lu Lili, standing beside Hao Ren, suddenly released an overwhelming suppression!
“Nascent Soul Realm cultivators!” Their legs became jelly instantly.
On this low-level Trading Convention, they should have encountered not only a disguised cultivator of the Core Formation Realm but two masters of the Nascent Soul Realm!
Without thinking, they dropped to the ground and kowtowed to Hao Ren, and the Lu sisters and two of them even wetted their pants with fear!
They were asking for death to rob a cultivator of the Core Formation Realm! It was even worse as they had planned to rape two masters of the Nascent Soul Realm!
A master of Nascent Soul Realm could kill the six of them with only one finger! In the whole Fifth Heaven, there were only four masters of the Nascent Soul Realm!
The four masters of the Nascent Soul Realm were leading the four most powerful cultivation sects in Fifth Heaven.
When blood began to ooze from their foreheads due to their repeated kowtowing, they found their heads were still attached to their bodies. Shakily, they lifted their heads slightly and saw that the young man, two beauties, and the spirit beast were gone.
“Boss, are you ok?” A man in a grey cotton robe helped their frightened leader up.
The leader had blood all over his face. Looking at his dharma treasure on the ground, he found it had lost all its Nature Essence.
It was throwing good money after bad. He wiped the blood off his face and gritted his teeth.
As a cultivator of the late stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm, he was a half master in the Fifth Heaven. But today he was defeated so pathetically and had almost lost his life!
“Let’s go!” Picking up the damaged dharma treasure, the leader got his breath back before leading his gang back into the Trading Convention.
“Boss, there’s a girl on level 1 Qi Refinement Realm!” With two teeth gone, one of his subordinates pointed at one spot in the Trading Convention and reported.
“She dares to come here without reaching the Foundation Establishment Realm! Damn! Let’s rob her!” The leader spat out a mouthful of bloodied spit before taking his gang to the direction of the girl.
They had taken only five steps when a surge of suffocating suppression pushed at them from the sky.
Another master of the Nascent Soul Realm… Their well-beaten bodies dropped to the ground without any resistance.
“Yujia, look around and purchase whatever catches your eye,” the Nascent Soul Realm Cultivator told the girl.
237 Who Let down Whom?
The girl had been standing alone at the edge of the Trading Convention, but suddenly a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator appeared beside her!
Judged from the force of the suppression, this was a master at top-tier the Nascent Soul Realm.
The amiable old grandma held the hand of a puzzled Xie Yujia, leading her into the heart of the Trading Convention.
All the people with any cultivation strength at the Trading Convention could see that the disciple of the female master of the Nascent Soul Realm was only a girl of level 1 Qi Refinement Realm.
It was a great fortune to be a disciple of a master of the top-tier Nascent Soul Realm! Besides, the girl seemed to have no special cultivation talent.
Xie Yujia was dizzy from seeing all kinds of objects at the convention.
And the people nearby all looked at her with envy, bafflement, and doubt…
Swoosh! Swoosh…
Four beams of light shot toward the Trading Convention.
Sensing the suppressions of two Nascent Soul Realm masters nearby, the four Nascent Soul Realm masters leading Fifth Heaven all came out to investigate.
However, they had now lost track of the two Nascent Soul Realm masters. Instead, they sensed the overwhelming cultivation strength of another master of the Nascent Soul Realm.
It was quite extraordinary that the Trading Convention for cultivators of the Foundation Establishment Realm had attracted three masters of the Nascent Soul Realm!
They came to the sky above the Trading Convention and sensed the master of the Nascent Soul Realm had reached the top-tier. They hovered in the air, exchanging a look with each other.
The four of them were only at the low-tier Nascent Soul Realm, and the combined force of the four of them was no match for a master of too-tier Nascent Soul Realm!
The Nascent Soul Realm cultivators of top-tier had the potential to enter the Soul Formation Realm! Most of the masters of Nascent Soul Realm stayed in the low-tier all their lives because the elevations in the Nascent Soul Realm was more difficult than all the previous levels combined.
They didn’t know that the master of top-tier Nascent Soul Realm at the convention was, in fact, a master of the God Transformation Realm!
On the one hand, the old grandma didn’t want to shock them with her true power; on the other hand, she didn’t want people to make trouble for them. That was why she disguised herself as a cultivator of top-tier Nascent Soul Realm.
The four cultivators of low-tier Nascent Soul Realm exchanged a look before flying back to their respective cultivation places. If the newcomer had been a cultivator of low-tier Nascent Soul Realm, they would have shown their faces and their ownership of the territory. However, with a top-tier master of Nascent Soul Realm whose temperament they knew nothing about, they thought it was better not to confront her at all.
The amiable old grandma strolled through the stalls with Xie Yujia and anyone who saw this white-haired old lady knew better than to mess with her.
Wherever they went, the crowd gave way for them.
“Yujia, take whatever you like,” the old grandma told Xie Yujia genially.
Glancing at the glittering objects in one booth, Xie Yujia hesitated before picking up an exquisite jade bracelet. “Grandma, I’ll take this. But I’ll pay for it.”
The old grandma smiled genially. “Little Yujia, the things here are not paid for with money.”
She took out a mid-tier Spirit Stone and tossed it at the young vendor. “I believe it’s enough for this bracelet.”
The young cultivator caught the spirit rock with apprehension. “Grandmaster, you don’t have to pay for it!”
With her cultivation power of top-tier Nascent Soul Realm, she could have taken all the items on the Trading Convention, and no one would have dared to utter a word. After all, any cultivator who could reach top-tier Nascent Soul Realm was as old as 500 to 600 years.
Even the Core Formation Realm cultivators who were the masters of these cultivators of the Foundation Establishment Realm were no match for the master of top-tier Nascent Soul Realm!
They didn’t understand why this grandmaster had taken a girl at level 1 Qi Refinement Realm as her disciple.
After all, all the Nascent Soul Realm masters were put on pedestals by their respective cultivating sects and didn’t take disciples anymore.
Xie Yujia slid the pretty jade bracelet onto her white wrist happily; it glittered in the illumination of the nearby stone columns.
“Thank you! Grandma!” She turned to the old grandma and thanked her.
“Hehe, I’m glad you like it. Let’s have a look at other stuff.” The old grandma’s smile was full of wrinkles.
Immediately, Xie Yujia helped the shaky old grandma to other booths.
The watching cultivators were envious of the girl who was only at level 1 Qi Refinement Realm and had a Nascent Soul Realm grandmaster as her protector. Obviously, the girl was not raised by the grandmaster; she had just recently become the grandmaster’s disciple.
The center of the fair was more lively and boisterous than the night markets on land. Xie Yujia was strolling through the convention with one arm supporting the old grandma when a familiar figure entered her sight.
Familiar figure and familiar profile.
Beautiful twin sisters accompanied this man.
Hao Ren was choosing some small red flowers when he felt a strong suppression come his way. With the red flowers in hand, he turned and saw Xie Yujia and the old grandma were walking toward him!
Hao Ren’s mind became blank for a moment. How come Xie Yujia was here?
If he had not wanted to come back and look for the small red flowers Su Han had once mentioned, he would have left the convention with Lu Linlin and Lu Lili by now.
But he had returned and met Xie Yujia!
Meanwhile, Xie Yujia stared at him with astonishment, then bafflement, and finally silence.
“Yujia, why… are you here?” In a daze, Hao Ren walked over and asked.
He even rubbed his eyes, suspecting his eyes were playing tricks on him or he had seen an illusion.
But Little White left his side and ran to Xie Yujia with affection, proving that the girl standing before her was indeed Xie Yujia.
In a white robe, Xie Yujia looked quiet and elegant like a statue in the night!
The old grandma by her side looked mild, but she emitted such a powerful spirit strength that no one dared to look her in the eye!
This spirit suppression was almost as powerful as that of Zhao Kuo.
“Hao Ren…” Xie Yujia whispered his name with a sad expression. Suddenly, she walked forward and threw herself into his arms.
Before Hao Ren could react, tears began to flow out of her big eyes.
“Idiot! You are such an idiot!” Holding Hao Ren, Xie Yujia beat his chest with her fist.
He stood on her tiptoes and wound her arms around his neck, holding him tightly. She placed her face against the back of his neck and cried harder!
“In vain! I’ve waited in vain!” Tears flowed down her chin onto Hao Ren’s back. They were hot.
Those were tears of regret, resignation, and sadness!
The hundreds of Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators nearby gasped at the sight. The only thing they were sure of was that the man had let down the disciple of the grandmaster of the Nascent Soul Realm, and he was doomed!
238 The Power of the Old Grandma
Holding Xie Yujia stiffly, Hao Ren’s mind was blank; feeling her soft shoulders in his palms, he was at a loss for words!
Xie Yujia’s tears showed her true feelings. Hao Ren had always thought of her as a strong and independent girl and had never imagined she would look so fragile!
Lu Linlin and Lu Lili stood on the side and pursed their lips; the old grandma didn’t make any moves as people had expected.
Little White ran around Hao Ren and Xie Yujia, howling anxiously.
“It’s hard to leave my classmate, but I have to go.” With tears all over her face, Xie Yujia pushed away from Hao Ren, sobbing. She stared at him for a long while. “I used to like Little Older Brother, and now I like Hao Ren. I can’t and don’t want to get over my feelings.”
She rubbed her reddened nose. “I wish everything well with you and Zi, your parents and grandma.”
Hao Ren found her gaze full of hesitation and sadness.
Staring at him, she bit her lip and suddenly rushed over and wound her arms around him.
She held him in front of hundreds of people, crying her heart out. Hao Ren’s mind was in a buzz, not able to think clearly.
“Gongzi, it’s almost time to get back,” Lu Linlin took two steps forward and said.
The old grandma also walked forward and pulled Xie Yujia into her arms.
Swoosh! Lu Linlin tossed out a bracelet, lifting the three of them up.
Before they left, they revealed their true powers as masters of the Nascent Soul Realm.
Qian Level and Kun Level were both equivalents to the Nascent Soul Realm. For the dragon cultivators, the higher level the cultivators were in, the more difficult for them to elevate. And that was why the Dragon Clan had a more detailed level system.
Lu Linlin and Lu Lili were at the low-tier Qian Level which was the equivalent of the top-tier Nascent Soul Realm!
The watching cultivators of Foundation Establishment Realm were stunned.
Seeing the two masters of top-tier Nascent Soul Realm serving the young man deferentially, they wondered if the young man was a grandmaster of the Soul Formation Realm!
The cultivators of Soul Formation Realm were the legendary grandmasters who could fly freely between the sky and the earth!
Thinking back when the young man led the maids disguised in Foundation Establishment Realm wandering among them, the cultivators of Foundation Establishment Realm shivered with fear.
With masters of top-tier Nascent Soul Realm as maids, the young man must be a grandmaster of the Soul Formation Realm! That explained why the other top-tier master of Nascent Soul Realm had not made a move when the young man messed with her disciple!
The more they thought about it, the more convinced they felt.
Meanwhile, the old grandma looked at the lost expression on Xie Yujia’s face and touched her head with a slight sigh. Then she vanished in a golden flash with Xie Yujia.
The overwhelming Nature Essence instantly filled the whole space between the sky and the earth!
Boom! A huge hole appeared in the space between Fifth Heaven and Sixth Heaven!
She was a cultivator of the Soul Formation Realm! One slight strike from a grudging cultivator of the Soul Formation Realm had pierced the space between the sky and the earth!
The thousands of cultivators including the tens of Core Formation Realm cultivators at the Trading Convention were dumbfounded!
If the strike had been aimed at the venue of the Trading Convention, the thousands of cultivators would have all died, and the whole celestial mountain would have been shattered.
Oblivious to the old grandma’s anger at Fifth Heaven, Hao Ren returned to land with Lu Linlin and Lu Lili. He went back to his hotel room through the window, stilling mulling over Xie Yujia’ s embrace.
Seeing Lu Linlin and Lu Lili still standing in his room, Hao Ren asked, “Why are you still here?”
“Gongzi, it’s midnight. Do you really want two girls to return at this hour?” Lu Linlin pouted.
Hao Ren glanced at them in resignation, knowing no one was their match under Fifth Heaven.
On second thought, he felt it would be inconsiderate to drive them back in the midnight. He nodded, saying, “You have to share a bed. Or I’ll put two chairs together, and I sleep on them, so you can each have a bed.”
“Thank you, Gongzi!” Lu Linlin smiled joyously. “My sister and I can share a bed!”
She had known Hao Ren wouldn’t drive them out. Lu Lili covered her smile at her sister’s smug look.
The two girls are outrageous. When they went into the bathroom in excitement, Hao Ren hurriedly changed out of his Taoist robe and into his pajamas before slipping under the covers.
He turned on the TV and found it was already 4 o’clock in the early morning, which meant morning would come in less than three hours
The sound of the shower came from the bathroom. If Zhou Liren and others had known the School Belles were showering and spending the night in Hao Ren’s room, blood would probably have spewed from their noses.
Although he had no intense feelings for Lu Linlin and Lu Lili, Hao Ren was quite fond of them and agreed to most of their requests.
Ruff! Ruff!
Little White bounced on the thick carpet before jumping into Hao Ren’s bed.
Hao Ren lifted it by its ears and tossed it back to the floor. This creature had been spoiled since it came into the city and had formed the habit of sleeping on a bed.
Being tossed out by Hao Ren from his soft bed, Little White trotted to the bathroom and loitered at the opaque glass door.
“Hey! Little White, you can’t peek when the girls are taking a shower!” Hao Ren yelled at it.
Little White looked back at Hao Ren and turned its black eyes back to the opaque glass door.
Hao Ren was choked by its glance, retorting silently, “I don’t want to peek at them…”
Then, th
e door slid open, and Lu Linlin and Lu Lili came out of the steaming bathroom, wrapped in towels and shower robes.
Seeing Little White waiting at the door, they immediately picked it up.
Happily, Little White rubbed its furry head against their smooth skin and snuggled into the bed of the sisters’ under Hao Ren’s astonished and disdainful gaze.
Ruff! Ruff!
In the bed, Little White began to crawl around under the covers, and Hao Ren had the sudden urge to grab it and gave it a good beating!
“Haha! Little White, stay still!” Itchy with its furs, Lu Linlin and Lu Lili pulled it from behind their backs.
Little White stuck out its tongue and began to lick their arms!
After half a night together, it had forgotten entirely about the Lu sisters’ threats. It abandoned Hao Ren and took the Lu sisters as its patronesses!
Time ticked away, and Hao Ren woke up at seven in the morning.
He turned to look at the other bed and found Lu Linlin and Lu Lili were sleeping in each other’s arms. Their sweet and peaceful look was a picture to look at.
Exhausted by half a night’s labor, Little White was also asleep on their beautiful hair, snoring contently.
Without their cultivation strength, the twin sisters would have been two ordinary and adorable girls. Hao Ren got up from the bed quietly. He entered the bathroom to wash up and change out of his pajamas.
With little sleep, he still felt dizzy. Walking to the window, he pulled the curtains to a small crack and stared at the road outside, savoring the moment when Xie Yujia held him in her arms.
Although he didn’t understand her emotional outburst, he couldn’t forget the feeling when she held him.
“Zhao Yanzi…” Hao Ren murmured the name and touched the cold window sill lightly. If not for Zhao Yanzi, Hao Ren would have begun a slow and reasonable pursuit of Xie Yujia or “Little Carrot” or the Class President.
Xie Yujia was lively, pure, kind and able; she was almost perfect. By contrast, Zhao Yanzi was spoiled and willful.
Rubbing his temples, Hao Ren turned around and found Lu Lili had woken up and was staring at him quietly in the bed.
