The huge Nine Dragon Palace looked like an ancient city that was uprooted and hung in the clouds.
There were no fancy array formations or colorful lights; there were only black lightning bolts, proving that the Nine Dragon Palace was full of energy.
Hao Ren rubbed his eyes to make sure that it was not an illusion. He looked at the other people on the bus and saw that they were still chatting, texting, and listening to MP3 players calmly. It seemed like no one had noticed the ancient city in the sky.
The people on the street walked hurriedly, worried that it might rain. Some were holding umbrellas, and some were carrying bags. No one looked up.
Hao Ren suddenly understood that the Nine Dragon Palace was like the energy spheres created by the cultivators when they battled. Ordinary people couldn't see it.
One had to reach at least Kan-level to be a cultivator to see the huge Nine Dragon Palace.
Hao Ren withdrew his Nature Essence and looked up to see the gloomy sky. In fact, the gloomy sky was caused by the sudden appearance of the Nine Dragon Palace. It covered the sky and blocked the sun!
The bus arrived at the bus stop near LingZhao Middle School. Hao Ren walked out of the bus just in time to get off.
Perhaps it was because the weather looked like it was going to rain, there were many cars at the school gate. The most eye-catching one was a grey-black Rolls-Royce Phantom!
It was in the middle of all the cars, occupying the position of the school gate!
Hao Ren walked over and glanced at the Rolls-Royce. The driver was a middle-aged man in his forties. He was burly, wearing a uniform and gloves, and there was a faint scar on his cheek.
It seemed like the driver was a retired soldier. However, when Hao Ren circulated his Nature Essence, he found that the driver was emitting a powerful dark blue light!
Water element, one of the Four Ocean Clan!
The driver seemed to have sensed Hao Ren's gaze, and his eyes quickly locked onto Hao Ren.
Instantly, Hao Ren felt like he had fallen into an ice cave, and he couldn't move his body. After scanning Hao Ren from head to toe, the driver slowly moved his eyes away.
Qian-level! This person was at least on Qian-level! Hao Ren came to this conclusion! This was the aura of Zhao Kuo, Zhao Yanzi's Third Uncle!
However, such a master cultivator was only a driver?!
While Hao Ren was puzzled, a handsome figure came into his sight.
Zeng Yitao, who was wearing a dark black high school uniform, walked out of the school gate!
Under the astonished gazes of the middle and high school girls, he looked straight ahead and directly sat in the Rolls-Royce Phantom at the entrance!
He … is going to LingZhao Middle School?
Hao Ren's heart skipped a beat as he suddenly felt a strong sense of crisis.
Although East Ocean University wasn't far from LingZhao Middle School, the High School Department and the Middle School Department were only separated by an artificial lake!
The reason why Zeng Yitao appeared at LingZhao High School was clear!
"Uncle Black Wolf, let's go." Zeng Yitao threw his backpack onto the spacious seat, leaned back on the seat, and said to the front.
The man called Black Wolf started the Rolls-Royce Phantom smoothly without a word.
He was assigned by Oldman Zeng to protect the Crown Prince in East Ocean City. If it weren't for Zeng Yitao's sudden decision to come to East Ocean City to study, his duty would have been to track Zhao Kuo's whereabouts and confirm if Zhao Kuo had passed the Heavenly Tribulation successfully. If not, he would have killed him unconditionally in the wild!
The grayish-black Rolls-Royce Phantom left steadily.
Zhao Yanzi, who was wearing the sky-blue Middle School Department uniform, gradually appeared at the gate. Walking with her was Little Spirit.
After parting ways with Ling, Zhao Yanzi stood at the gate on her tiptoes and looked around.
Hao Ren walked over immediately. "Hey!"
Zhao Yanzi's eyes flashed when she saw Hao Ren. Then, she put on a straight face and said, "Who told you to pick me up?"
Hao Ren pouted and said, "It's on the way. I just wanted to get some food from your house."
"Humph!" Zhao Yanzi untied her backpack and threw it into Hao Ren's arms.
Hao Ren caught the backpack and realized that it was quite heavy. He put it on and felt that the strap was a bit tight.
"Don't you feel disgusted?" Zhao Yanzi walked beside him and wrinkled her nose when she saw Hao Ren carrying her pink backpack on his back.
"You threw it at me. I feel disgusted because of your backpack," Hao Ren said. He saw some middle school students pointing at them and thought that they must think that he was Zhao Yanzi's boyfriend from City North First High School.
Zhao Yanzi didn't want to argue with him, so she walked with her head down.
Hao Ren noticed that her face was a bit red and felt that something was wrong. He grabbed her arm and stopped walking.
He reached out and put his hand on her forehead. Zhao Yanzi wanted to resist but couldn't. The middle school students began to talk among themselves when they saw this intimate gesture.
Hao Ren felt a burning sensation in his palm. He stared at her immediately and said, "You have a fever!"
"I'm fine!" Zhao Yanzi pushed Hao Ren's arm away and continued walking. However, her steps were a bit light as if she would fall at any moment.
"What a mess! She should go back and rest! "
Hao Ren grabbed her arm and pulled her into his arms. Then, he walked to the side of the road and waved.
A taxi stopped beside them. Hao Ren opened the door and pushed Zhao Yanzi in.
After telling the driver the name of the road, Hao Ren turned around and looked at Zhao Yanzi worriedly. Zhao Yanzi saw Hao Ren staring at her. She blushed and shouted stubbornly, "I'm fine!"
"You're fine … Your fever is almost 39 degrees!" Hao Ren's expression became serious.
Zhao Yanzi pouted and didn't say anything.
The school wasn't far from Zhao Yanzi's home. They arrived at her door in about ten minutes. Hao Ren walked into the house with Zhao Yanzi. Seeing that the house was empty, he asked her, "Where are your parents?"
"They got the elixir pills yesterday and went back to the dragon palace," Zhao Yanzi answered.
"Well …" Hao Ren sighed. "Should we go to the hospital?"
"No!" Zhao Yanzi shook her head immediately.
"Where's the medicine box?" Hao Ren asked her.
"What medicine box? We never keep medicine in our house. "Zhao Yanzi looked up at Hao Ren. However, her eyes looked weak because of the fever.
"That's right, how could they get sick?" Hao Ren sighed again. Zhao Yanzi's parents weren't home, and she didn't want to go to the hospital. Hao Ren sighed again. Now that Zhao Yanzi's parents weren't home, and she didn't want to go to the hospital, he couldn't leave her at home.
After a moment of consideration, he called Lu Qing, but no one picked up. He called Elder Sun, but no one picked up either.
It seemed like as the core elders of East Ocean, they were all summoned to the East Ocean Dragon Palace for a meeting.
"Grandma isn't in East Ocean City, and neither are my parents …" Hao Ren looked through the phone book and saw Su Han's number.
Su Han had a cell phone, but she rarely used it.
