Dragon King’s Son-In-Law

In fact, Zhao Yanzi had been tired in the past two days. On the one hand, she was fatigued from the tutoring sessions with Hao Ren; on the other hand, she wasn’t able to fall asleep the night before since Hao Ren took her in his arms tightly.

Last night when Hao Ren returned to their room, he fell asleep without saying a word, which infuriated her. After all, she was quite considerate to share the bed with him, but he showed no consideration to her at all!

During the night, she pinched and bit him, but Hao Ren slept like a log through all this as if he was a cell phone that ran out of battery.

After half a night’s movements, Hao Ren showed no response, but Zhao Yanzi was so exhausted that she fell asleep in his arms subconsciously…

When Hao Ren regained his consciousness after the recovery of his body, Zhao Yanzi was sleeping like a pig.

The windows facing the ocean were open, and the cool morning breezes that were blowing into the room were refreshing.

In Hao Ren’s arms, Zhao Yanzi’s body felt fragile and soft.

Seeing that she was still asleep, Hao Ren couldn’t help himself and lightly squeezed her wrists and fingers, feeling her bones and smooth skin.

Hao Ren tightened his arms slightly, and a sweet and soft sensation touched his chest and arms; he felt guilty but couldn’t resist the temptation.

Her legs in her pajama pants gave a nice feeling to Hao Ren’s knees, and the skin around her neck had turned slightly brown due to the exposure to the sun during her special training in the last month, giving her a healthy and vibrant feel.

Her ears were hidden under her hair, and they were still white and delicate.

“Fiancée …” This word appeared in Hao Ren’s mind.

Suddenly, he no longer minded the many bite marks she left on his body.

Playing on the beach, going to sleep to the hypnotic sounds of the ocean waves, small crazy antics and sweet moments; they looked like a young couple who had just graduated.

Hao Ren held Zhao Yanzi’s small round shoulders and placed his cheek against her shoulder while readying himself for her sudden wake and attacks.

“Fuma! Fuma! Something important happened!”

The yelling outside the door almost startled Hao Ren and made him jump off the bed.

Zhao Yanzi turned slightly, looking as if she would wake up at any moment.

Hao Ren got out of the bed, rushed to open the door, and leaped outside in a hurry.

“Fuma… These are…”

Seeing the bite marks covering Hao Ren’s face, arms, and shoulders, Premier Xia was astonished.

“Oh, these…” Hao Ren pulled up his clothes in vain and asked with a serious expression, “Premier Xia, what happened?”

Immediately, Premier Xia’s doubting and curious gaze turned serious, and his tone became stern. “Dragon King Zeng of the West Ocean Dragon Clan died in an explosion last night while he was trying to charge at the Heavenly Dragon Realm.”

“What?!” Hao Ren was astonished to hear the news.

Undoubtedly, Dragon King Zeng of the West Ocean Dragon Clan was the overbearing Oldman Zeng. Although Hao Ren didn’t like him and his grandson, Zeng Yitao, he was surprised to the core.

“The Dragon King is in the Grand Hall waiting for you to discuss this situation,” Premier Xia continued.

“Ok!” Hao Ren quickened his steps toward the Grand Hall of Summer Palace.

“Fuma, your face…” With his back hunched, Premier Xia followed Hao Ren closely and reminded him.

Rubbing his cheeks, Hao Ren felt several bite marks on them, realizing that Zhao Yanzi had indeed bit him hard…

“Forget it. I’ll deal with them later!” Hao Ren waved his hand, knowing now was not the time to dwell on this problem.

When he walked into the Grand Hall, Elder Lu, Elder Sun, and Elder Xingyue had all arrived. In the middle of the hall sat Zhao Guang and Zhao Hongyu.

They were slightly surprised when they saw the bite marks all over Hao Ren’s body but didn’t say anything. Only Zhao Hongyu silently scolded Zhao Yanzi for her extravagant behavior.

“According to the intelligence report we just received, Zeng Xin of the West Ocean Dragon Clan failed and died when he tried to charge at the Heavenly Dragon Realm. Right now, only the young Zeng Yitao is in charge of the West Ocean Dragon Palace. Meanwhile, the demon beasts in the Demon Sea that were close to the West Ocean Dragon Clan are swarming to the West Ocean Dragon Palace.” With a gloomy face, Zhao Guang looked around at the people in the hall and said.

Having met and dealt with Zeng Xin a few times, Hao Ren had a deep impression of the old man. But still, he was surprised that the old man had taken such a risk, tried to charge at the Heavenly Dragon Realm, and died in the process.

The path of cultivation was indeed treacherous.

“In the past year, the West Ocean Dragon Clan tried to take more land and treasures from us. However, instead of realizing their plan, their strength was greatly damaged. I suppose Zeng Xin wanted to reverse the unfavorable situation of West Ocean by trying to become a Heavenly Dragon,” Elder Lu said with a frown.

“Unfortunately, his cultivation strength was not great enough to reach the Heavenly Dragon Realm. Besides, I guess he was stirred by the fact that Third Lord had successfully used the mystic crystal,” Elder Sun said.

The extraordinary changes in nature caused by Zhao Kuo’s use of the mystic crystal informed the West Ocean Dragon Clan. Judging from the magnificent changes, they must know that the quality of the mystic crystal Zhao Kuo got was extraordinary.

If the West Ocean Dragon Clan wanted to surpass the East Ocean Dragon Clan, it must get a Heavenly Dragon before East Ocean.

“Was Oldman Zeng’s realm high enough to charge at the Heavenly Dragon Realm?” Hao Ren asked in bafflement.

“There are two ways of charging at the Heavenly Dragon Realm. One is to reach peak Qian-level to activate the Heavenly Tribulation naturally, and the other is for the cultivators who are near the end of their lives to take the risk and activate the Heavenly Tribulation by force.”

“Oh…” Hao Ren nodded, knowing that Zeng Xin belonged to the latter group.

Elder Lu and Elder Sun’s analyses were correct, but they didn’t know that after Hao Ren circulated Zhao Haoran’s cultivation strength and created a huge crater in the ocean with the Mystic Water Sword Techniques last night, West Ocean mistakenly thought that this terrifying power came from Zhao Kuo who had successfully planted the mystic crystal. Stunned at the discovery, Zeng Xin had considered for a long time before deciding to take the risk.

More importantly, Zeng Xin thought Zhao Haoran was still alive, supporting the East Ocean Dragon Clan. Zeng Xin once thought that he could outlive Zhao Haoran and then suppress the East Ocean Dragon Clan with his status and realm. However, during the war between West Ocean and East Ocean, Zhao Haoran took the battle head-on with a very healthy and powerful look, plunging Zeng Xin into despair.

He had no idea that the East Ocean Dragon Clan hid the news about Zhao Haoran’s death.

The power of Zhao Haoran, Zhao Kuo’s breakthrough with mystic crystal, and Hao Ren’s show of strength at the Dragon God Shrine; all these scared Zeng Xin and made him regret his decision to mess with the East Ocean Dragon Clan with the excuse of Zhao Yanzi.

“We don’t have time for these analyses.” Zhao Hongyu interrupted Elder Lu and Elder Sun while frowning slightly. “The West Ocean Dragon Clan was the most powerful force among the four Ocean dragon clan, which is why they attacked the demon beasts in the Demon Sea the hardest. Now that the strength of the elders of the West Ocean Dragon Clan decreased greatly, the troops were beaten in the war with us, and Oldman Zeng died in the Heavenly Tribulation, the demon beasts close to the West Ocean Dragon Palace have nothing to fear and are now all rushing to the West Ocean Dragon Palace for revenge.”

She looked around at the people in the Grand Hall. “Now, we need to decide if we should send troops or not.”

Elder Lu and Elder Sun exchanged a look and remained silent.

Elder Xingyue also lowered her head slightly and didn’t say anything.

Zhao Hongyu looked toward Hao Ren. Hao Ren was the Fuma and also the Commanding General of East Ocean who controlled all the troops.

“Even if we don’t send troops, the South Ocean Dragon Clan and the North Ocean Dragon Clan will send their troops,” Hao Ren said.

Zhao Hongyu shook her head. “From what we know right now, these two clans have not sent any troops, and I think they are pretending that they haven’t received the news yet. As to the West Ocean Dragon Palace, it is in a mess and probably hasn’t been able to send any signals for help yet.”

“No. The troops of South Ocean and West Ocean must be on their way right now,” Hao Ren said immediately.

Zhao Hongyu looked at Hao Ren in doubt.

“Report…” A loud shout sounded from outside of the Grand Hall.

“What’s the news?” Zhao Guang looked toward the gate.

“Commanding General, Dragon King! The South Ocean Dragon Clan and the North Ocean Dragon Clan have each sent 300,000 soldiers to the West Ocean Dragon Palace,” the soldier reported in a loud voice.

Zhao Hongyu looked at Hao Ren in astonishment, wondering how he had made such an accurate prediction.

“Mom! What’s happening?” In a small shirt, Zhao Yanzi walked into the Grand Hall.

When she saw the red bite marks covering Hao Ren’s neck, she immediately lowered her head and tried to go back while blushing.

“Zi!” Zhao Hongyu looked at her in anger, and Zhao Yanzi had to walk over to her obediently.

With his hands on the table, Zhao Guang stood still and looked at Hao Ren. “How many soldiers do you think we should send?”

Now that the South Ocean Dragon Clan and the North Ocean Dragon Clan had sent troops, it would be hard for the East Ocean Dragon Clan not to help.

“Half a million soldiers!” Hao Ren said.

“Isn’t 500,000 a bit too many…” Premier Xia reminded in a low voice.

Hao Ren smiled, but the purple bite marks on his cheeks made the smile less radiant.

“Do you think Third Uncle would have sent troops?” Hao Ren asked.

Premier Xia shook his head. “Third Lord hates the West Ocean Dragon Clan the most. He wouldn’t have sent troops to save them from this trouble.”

“I think so as well.” Hao Ren nodded. “However, we need to send more soldiers to take more territory.”

Hearing his words, everyone including Elder Lu and Elder Sun was stunned.

Instead of fighting the demon beasts, they were going to occupy the territory of the West Ocean Dragon Clan! Hao Ren’s words revealed the real intention of the South Ocean Dragon Clan and the North Ocean Dragon Clan!

Kind and merciful, the East Ocean Dragon Clan didn’t turn their thoughts in that direction after getting the news.

“Summon the generals!” Hao Ren shouted.
