Dragon King’s Son-In-Law

“How did little Zhumu’s birthday party go?” Returning to Hao Ren’s side, Lu Lili asked in her cute voice.

While Hao Ren didn’t answer her immediately, she apologized in a whisper, “Sorry, I will never speak anything bad about Gongzi ever again.”

Compared with Lu Linlin, she was generally quieter and more careful. Now that she was familiar with Hao Ren, she began to tease him from time to time.

Hao Ren shook his head helplessly.

He didn’t mean to ignore her question. Due to the many things that had happened at Zhao Yanzi’s birthday party, he was thinking about where to start.

“The West Ocean sent a big team to the party and brought 1,000 1,000-year purple corals and ten West Ocean Mystic Ice as gifts. However, East Ocean returned the Mystic Ices. Also, Qin Shaoyang was relocated to the northwest region and will not come to East Ocean City for a while,” Hao Ren told them.

“West Ocean Mystic Ice is a type of water-elemental Mystic Crystal,” Lu Linlin commented.

“Yeah.” Hao Ren nodded. By now, they had arrived at Hongji Square. Glancing at the various small restaurants, Hao Ren asked, “What do you want to treat me to?”

“Mini South Kitchen. My sister and I tried it a couple of days ago. It was quite good,” Lu Lili said.

Hao Ren smiled, thinking that they had gotten used to the life here since they not only came out for meals but also learned to invite people to meals to show their appreciation.

They walked into the restaurant, and Lu Linlin ordered several dishes they had tried last time. Then, she turned to Hao Ren again and said, “But West Ocean Mystic Ice is a Mystic Crystal of the worst quality. The dragon cultivators can reach Kun-level with the help of this Mystic Crystal, but it will be tough if you want to reach Qian-level with it.

“Oh?” Hao Ren was interested. “What kinds of Mystic Crystals do you know?”

“There are so many. Metal, wood, water, fire, and earth are the five categories of Mystic Crystals. In each category, there are about dozens of different kinds. As to Mystic Crystals with multiple elemental attributes such as metal-earth and wood-water, the number is even larger,” Lu Linlin said.

The guys in the restaurant all glanced toward the twins, but Hao Ren ignored them since his attention was now on the topic of Mystic Crystals.

“But these Mystic Crystals are natural treasures with the purest and most violent essences. Even the West Ocean Mystic Ices, the ones with the poorest quality, are hidden by the West Ocean Dragon Palace as treasures and not available to ordinary cultivators. As to Mystic Crystals with better quality, it’s much more difficult to find and get access to them.”

“I cultivate five elements simultaneously, so I’m supposed to use a Mystic Crystal with all five elemental attributes, right?” Hao Ren asked.

“The Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll progresses slowly but steadily. The more openings you unlock in the Dragon Core, the more difficult the process will get. The Mystic Crystal is used to stimulate the Dragon Core and gain breakthroughs. In fact, we just have a vague idea about the advancement of the Dragon Core. You’d better consult Su Han about your situation,” Lu Lili said cautiously.

“Are there Mystic Crystals that contain all five elements?”

“I’ve never heard about any Dragon Tribe members cultivating a five-elemental cultivation technique. The most they have are two elements. However,” after a moment of consideration, she said, “My sister and I have read from a book that in this world, there are very few, only about seven or eight Mystic Crystals with all five elements. The best one is the Seven-Colored Snow Lotus in the Sky Mountain that is located in the northwest. It takes 10,000 years to take root, 10,000 years to bloom, and another 10,000 years to mature.”

“The Sky Mountain? The Northwest?” Hao Ren’s heart lurched, realizing that it was now Qin Shaoyang’s territory.

Now the dishes were served. Lu Lili rubbed her hands together with satisfaction at the sight of the delicious-looking dishes. It seemed like they had little to eat while they lived in Lu Qing’s place.

“Gongzi, you first!” Lu Lili picked up her chopsticks and was about to dig in when she suddenly stopped and said to Hao Ren.

“It’s ok. Let’s eat together.” Hao Ren smiled.

“Good!” Lu Lili grinned with excitement. She immediately put a piece of stewed pork into her mouth and chewed.

Lu Linlin raised her hand to cover her bright smile. Then, she also picked up her chopsticks and began eating with a happy look on her face. They had meant to show their appreciation to Hao Ren with the meal, but it seemed like they were having a good time as well.

“Oh, another thing. What do you think of Natal Dharma Treasures?” Hao Ren asked.

Lu Linlin pouted. “Gongzi, you have so many questions, but none of them are about our lives.”

Hao Ren froze for a few seconds and thought for a while. “Ok, I’ll stop with these questions. Linlin, Lili, how is your studying going?”

“We have caught up with the class now. As to our daily lives, we live on campus during the weekdays and go back to Elder Lu’s home for the weekends and holidays. A couple of days ago, a guy in the class gave my sister a love letter!” Lu Lili said with a sweet smile.

“Nonsense! It was meant for you. It was delivered to me by mistake.” Lu Linlin rolled her eyes at Lu Lili.

Lu Lili lowered her head and chuckled. One of them had a ponytail while the other had two pigtails. It might be hard for others, but it was easy for him tell them apart.

Hao Ren knew that a lot of guys would pursue Lu Linlin and Lu Lili. However, he didn’t think that any mortal man could meet their standards.

With more than half of their cultivation strengths being restricted, they still were in the realm of Kun-level. One day when they fully recover their strength, probably even Zhao Kuo wouldn’t be a match for them!

They began to chat about the things in their class and the school with pleased expressions, satisfied Hao Ren was showing interest in their life.

After lunch, it was almost time for them to return to school for classes. Lu Linlin stood up without hesitation and paid for the meal with a wallet thick with bills. Obviously, it was the ‘pocket money’ that Lu Qing had given them.

It was just part of the payments that Lu Qing gave to the two helpers of Kun-level.

Crossing Hongji Square, they walked into the school.

“Gongzi, how about we going to class with you?” Lu Linlin suggested abruptly, blinking her bright eyes.

“Don’t. My next class is a professional course in a small classroom.” Hao Ren glanced at them in resignation. They looked so carefree.

“Gongzi, give us your hand,” Lu Linlin said suddenly.

“What is it?” Alarmed, Hao Ren kept his hands close to his body.

“We’ll measure the five elements in your body!” Lu Linlin raised her hand to cover her smile. It felt like she was trying to take advantage of Hao Ren

“Ok.” Hao Ren extended his hands.

Lu Linlin and Lu Lili each took one hand and held his fingertips. “Metal, 15%; wood, 16%; water, 34%; fire, 20%; earth, 25%.”

“Well, your elements became a little unbalanced again. The water element has gained the biggest percentage. You must make more efforts on the absorption of metal and wood elements in the future,” Lu Lili released Hao Ren’s hand and said.

“Ok.” Hao Ren let go of their smooth fingers. Suddenly a thought occurred to him. “You just measured them by holding my fingers. Then why did you make me take off my shirt last time when you did it?”

Standing on either side of him, Lu Linlin and Lu Lili exchanged a look and snickered. Before Hao Ren could ask more questions, they ran away.

Hao Ren smiled in resignation. He got his books before walking to Academic Building D for his professional course given by the college.

Two hours later, the class ended, and so did the day.

“It’s my turn! My turn!” When the bell rang signaling the end of the class, Zhou Liren yelled. He wanted to have a taste of sitting in a Ferrari. After all, Hao Ren would return the car at the end of the week, and he would have no chance to sit in it anymore.

“Sorry,” Hao Ren stood up with his books. “but the Class President and I need to run an errand.”

“The Class President?” Zhou Liren’s eyes widened. “Things do change when you drive a Ferrari! Ren, you didn’t dare to talk to her for more than one year, but you got her today!”

Bonk! Hao Ren hit him on the head. “We have an errand to run out of the school.”

Ignoring the guys who were protesting, he walked to the front of the classroom. “Class President, let’s go.”

“Ok.” Xie Yujia nodded and handed her bag to Ma Lina. “Please take this to the dorm for me.”

Ma Lina stared at Xie Yujia with shiny eyes. Although she was not a snob like Wang Jia, she was quite envious when she saw that Xie Yujia was going to take a ride in the Ferrari with Hao Ren.

“Little Li, take it to the dorm for me!” Hao Ren tossed his bag to Zhou Liren.

“F*uk! I’m a delivery boy again!” Zhou Liren complained in a loud voice.

Hao Ren and Xie Yujia smiled before hurrying downstairs. Since their classmates had admired the Ferrari at noon, no one was around the car now. Xie Yujia got in the car while Hao Ren started the engine.

“Did your parents buy it?” Xie Yujia turned to ask him.

“We can’t afford it. It belongs to Zhao Yanzi’s mom,” Hao Ren said with a bitter smile.

“Oh, her family is very rich then,” Xie Yujia said in a low voice. She knew Zhao Yanzi was the young girl whom Hao Ren was tutoring. In her mind, that little girl was Su Han’s cousin and was hostile toward her.

Hao Ren didn’t answer. He drove the car out of the main gate of the school smoothly.

In Xie Yujia’s eyes, Zhao Yanzi was only a spoiled little princess. She would never think that the girl was actually Hao Ren’s fiancée. She wouldn’t have believed it even if Hao Ren had told her so.

Instead, she thought Hao Ren was close to Su Han, and Su Han was the one who introduced Hao Ren to Zhao Yanzi’s family. After all, without the connections to Su Han, no one would loan a sports car that was worth millions to a college student.

However, after careful consideration, she didn’t think Su Han was Hao Ren’s girlfriend. When the car arrived at LingZhao Middle School, Xie Yujia got off the car and told the guard the name of the teacher she was going to visit. Xie Yujia looked like such a good student that the guard came over and opened the gate without further questions.

Just when Hao Ren drove past the gate, he accidentally activated the Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll and suddenly saw the middle-aged guard emit a deep blue aura!

The guard checked everyone who entered the school. Obviously, Zhao Yanzi’s plain-clothed bodyguards were everywhere!
