"Oh?"
Hao Ren was surprised by this news.
"Now, the Dragon God Shrine thinks that I can't perform my duties as an inspector due to my severe injuries. That's why there is no official inspector supervising the East Ocean City. Qin Shaoyang's transfer to the East Ocean City is such an opportunity," Su Han continued.
Hao Ren knew that Qin Shaoyang was from the metal-elemental dragon clan, which was the rarest and most powerful clan in the entire Dragon Tribe. Their average strength was the closest to the Heavenly Dragon Realm, which was why they had the highest status in the dragon cultivator circle.
Since Qin Shaoyang was a metal-elemental dragon, he must have a special status in the inspector system. Taking advantage of the fact that Su Han hadn't been monitoring the East Ocean City for a few weeks, he transferred her to the East Ocean City.
"Then … What are you going to do?" Hao Ren asked Su Han.
"My vital energy hasn't recovered yet, and my realm hasn't stabilized after the breakthrough caused by the godly elixir pills. I plan to rest in the dragon palace for a while. Besides, I don't want to have direct contact with Qin Shaoyang, so I'll wait and see, "Su Han said.
"You are pretending to be severely injured, so you don't dare to compete with Qin Shaoyang for the inspector position. You want to see what he is up to, right?" Hao Ren asked her.
Su Han smiled. She didn't say yes or no, but she was impressed by Hao Ren's quick thinking.
The effect of the godly elixir pills Hao Ren gave her was unexpectedly good. In fact, she was even more powerful than before. If Qin Shaoyang didn't have a major breakthrough, Su Han could easily suppress him. However, she wanted to see the Dragon God Shrine's attitude on this matter.
In the past, the Dragon God Shrine transferred Qin Shaoyang to the bitter cold northwest region to save Su Han's face. Su Han was one of the most powerful inspectors. If she resigned from her position, there would be one less powerful inspector in the inspector system. That was why the Dragon God Shrine would rather punish Qin Shaoyang slightly in order to keep Su Han.
If inspectors were injured outside, they could come back to the Dragon God Shrine to recuperate. The Dragon God Shrine had all kinds of elixirs and healing methods. With Su Han's status, she could use more resources than the East Ocean Dragon Palace could.
According to the rules, if a regional inspector went to the Dragon God Shrine to cultivate in seclusion or to recover, the Dragon God Shrine would send a new inspector to take over the region. Su Han didn't return to the Dragon God Shrine because she didn't want to let go of the East Ocean City.
However, Qin Shaoyang's arrival at the East Ocean City at this critical moment seemed to indicate that the Dragon God Shrine's attitude toward her had changed.
Distrust, worry, or something else …
What was certain was that the Dragon God Shrine and Qin Shaoyang both thought that Su Han wasn't as powerful as before.
East Ocean City was the city closest to the East Ocean Dragon Clan, and the Dragon God Shrine had sent Qian-level inspectors to guard the other three affiliated cities of the East Ocean Dragon Clan. These four regional inspectors were the elites of the elites in the Inspector System. They had the highest status, power, and strength among the regional inspectors.
As for the patrolling inspectors, theoretically, they could intervene in the affairs of any region and investigate all kinds of details. However, the four big cities that were closely connected to the four ocean dragon clans were definitely the territories of the four top-level regional inspectors. Any inspector from the outside world would be in serious trouble if they tried to intervene in the affairs of the four cities.
Qin Shaoyang, who had a relatively high status among the patrolling inspectors, entered the East Ocean City rashly and intervened in the affairs between East Ocean and West Ocean, challenging Su Han's authority in the East Ocean City. In the end, he was transferred to the bitter cold northwest region and became a small regional inspector.
"When will he come?" Hao Ren asked Su Han again.
"He'll be here soon. I don't plan to meet him, but you are my assisting inspector, so you are destined to have a confrontation with him. Of course, you don't have to be afraid of him. If he dares to harm you, I'll take action decisively, "Su Han said lightly.
Her tone was calm, but her eyes were extremely sharp.
As an assisting inspector, even if Hao Ren did something wrong, the Dragon God Shrine would punish him. If Qin Shaoyang dared to harm her people, Su Han wouldn't show any mercy!
"Ok, I got it." Hao Ren nodded. Now that he had opened 75 apertures, his cultivation strength was dozens of times stronger than before. Although he couldn't defeat Qin Shaoyang, who was at Kun-level, he wasn't as weak as before.
"I'm just here to see you. It's getting late, so I'll head back now," Hao Ren looked at her again and said with a smile.
"Ok." Su Han nodded with a slight smile. Different from the coldness and decisiveness a moment ago, Su Han walked Hao Ren to the door, showing a bit of gentleness.
"Oh," Su Han suddenly said in her crisp voice, "The godly elixir pills you gave me are more effective than the level 9 golden pills I can make. If there's a chance in the future, I'd like to go to the Nine Dragon Palace with you again."
"Do you know where the Nine Dragon Palace is?" Hao Ren turned his head and asked her.
"It's on Seventh Heaven at most, but it's definitely not on Eighth Heaven. If we want to find it, we'll be able to find it, "Su Han said.
She had never relied on elixir pills to increase her realm before, but the effects of the godly elixir pills surprised her. After reaching mid-tier Qian-level, it was extremely difficult to advance to the next level. She knew that the East Ocean Dragon Clan had some godly elixir pills, but she didn't expect to get them from them. That was why she wanted to take the risk and go to the Nine Dragon Palace again.
"Ok. If you go, take me with you," Hao Ren agreed without hesitation.
Su Han was a bit surprised by Hao Ren's straightforwardness.
"Besides the ancient godly elixir pills, there are a lot of ancient cultivation techniques and dharma treasures. If we can go in, we can take a look," Hao Ren said before pushing the door open and walking out.
Hao Ren's casual words made Su Han's heart surge with excitement. There were countless treasures and opportunities in the Nine Dragon Palace. If she could master a suitable primeval cultivation technique and unlock the ancient godly dragon bloodline, becoming a Heavenly Dragon would no longer be a dream.
Looking at Hao Ren's back, Su Han circulated her meridians that were already unblocked and suddenly found that Hao Ren seemed to have made a lot of progress recently.
"Judging from his majestic aura, it seems like he's about to break through to Gen-level."
Su Han looked down and pinched her fingers, thinking, "It's only been a few days, and Hao Ren has unlocked more than 20 openings. His talent is ordinary, and his cultivation technique is unique. However, it's a technique that is known for its steadiness. Even I, a Qian-level cultivator, can make a mistake? "
"If I go to the Nine Dragon Palace again, this kid won't be a burden anymore, right?"
Su Han patted her chest. Qiu Niu's angry roar still had a lingering fear in her heart. That domineering energy had sent a Qian-level cultivator like her flying.
