In fact, Zhao Yanzi had been exhausted in the past two days. Not only was she exhausted from studying with Hao Ren, but Hao Ren had also held her tightly in his arms the night before yesterday, and she couldn't fall asleep at all.
Last night, Hao Ren went back to his room and fell asleep without saying a word, which made Zhao Yanzi furious. She gave up half of the bed to Hao Ren out of consideration, but Hao Ren didn't move at all as if he was dead. It was like a cellphone that had run out of battery; it wasn't broken, but it couldn't be turned on!
In the middle of the night, she twisted and bit at Hao Ren, but he didn't move at all as if he was dead. It was like a cellphone that had run out of battery. It wasn't broken, but it couldn't be turned on!
She tossed and turned for half the night, but Hao Ren still did not have any reaction. She was exhausted. Now that Hao Ren had recovered and woke up, Zhao Yanzi was sleeping like a dead pig.
Now that Hao Ren had recovered and woken up, Zhao Yanzi was sleeping like a dead pig.
The window facing the ocean was open, and the cool morning breeze blew in. It was very comfortable.
Zhao Yanzi's body was thin and soft in Hao Ren's arms.
Seeing that she was still sleeping, Hao Ren couldn't help but pinch her wrist and fingers. Her bones were soft, her skin was smooth, and there was a light fragrance in the blanket.
Hao Ren slightly tightened his arms, and a sweet and soft feeling attacked his chest and arms. He felt a little guilty, but he couldn't help it.
Although she was wearing pajama pants, Hao Ren's knees were still very tactile because of her elastic legs.
The skin around her neck had taken on a wheat-colored hue due to being exposed to the sun for a month during the special training. Even so, it gave off a very healthy and lively feeling.
Her ears, however, were still white and delicate as they were covered by her hair.
"Fiancée …" Hao Ren gradually thought of this word.
Suddenly, he felt that his whole body was full of bite marks, and he didn't really care about it anymore.
Zhao Yanzi was sleeping soundly. Her body was starting to grow, and she wasn't that young anymore.
Going to the beach and falling asleep in the hypnosis of the waves was a little crazy and a little sweet. It seemed like a couple who had just graduated would do something like this.
Hao Ren gently squeezed her small round shoulder and pressed his face against her shoulder blade. He had to be careful if Zhao Yanzi suddenly woke up.
"Prince Consort! Prince Consort! Something big has happened! "
The yelling outside the door almost startled Hao Ren.
Zhao Yanzi turned slightly, showing signs of waking up as well.
Hao Ren quickly got out of the bed and rushed to the door as fast as he could. He pulled the door open and jumped outside.
"Prince Consort … You …"
Premier Xia was shocked to see the bite marks all over Hao Ren's face, arms, and shoulders.
"Oh, this, this …" Hao Ren pulled at his shirt and realized that he had nowhere to hide. Then, he asked in a serious tone, "Premier Xia, what happened?"
Immediately, Premier Xia's eyes turned serious, and his tone turned gloomy. "Dragon King Zeng of the West Ocean Dragon Palace failed to charge into the Heavenly Dragon Realm last night, and his body exploded and died."
Ah …
Hao Ren was shocked when he heard the news.
Without a doubt, the Dragon King Zeng of the West Ocean Dragon Palace that Premier Xia mentioned was the arrogant Oldman Zeng. Hao Ren disliked both Oldman Zeng and Zeng Yitao, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen.
"The Dragon King is waiting for you in the Grand Palace," Premier Xia continued.
"Ok!" Hao Ren sped up and walked toward the Grand Palace.
"Prince Consort, your face …" Premier Xia followed Hao Ren closely with his back bent as he reminded him.
Hao Ren touched his cheek and felt a few teeth marks on it. Zhao Yanzi really bit him to death when she bit him …
"Forget it. We'll talk about it later!" Hao Ren waved his hand since it wasn't the time to think about it.
When he entered the Grand Palace, Elder Lu, Elder Sun, and Elder Xingyue were already there. Zhao Guang and Zhao Hongyu sat in the middle.
When they saw Hao Ren and the bite marks all over his body, they were slightly surprised but didn't say anything. However, Zhao Hongyu murmured in her mind, "Zi is too much."
"I just received news that Zeng Xin of the West Ocean Dragon Palace failed to charge into the Heavenly Dragon Realm last night and died. Right now, Zeng Yitao is the only one in the West Ocean Dragon Palace, and the demon beasts from the Demon Sea are swarming toward the West Ocean Dragon Palace, "Zhao Guang said with a gloomy expression.
Hao Ren had met Zeng Xin a few times and had a good impression of this old man. However, he didn't expect that this old man would take the risk of charging into the Heavenly Dragon Realm and get himself killed.
The path of cultivation was indeed incomparably dangerous.
"In the past year, West Ocean has been targeting our East Ocean Dragon Palace, trying to get more land and a higher status. However, they didn't gain any advantage, and their strength was greatly weakened. This time, Zeng Xin charged into the Heavenly Dragon Realm with all his might. I guess he wants to turn the tables on West Ocean, "Elder Lu said with a frown.
"Unfortunately, his cultivation strength is weak, and he has a bad temper. It's very difficult for him to charge into the Heavenly Dragon Realm. Maybe … he was stimulated by Third Lord's success in refining the mystic crystal, "Elder Sun said.
Zhao Kuo's refining of the mystic crystal had triggered a natural phenomenon, and the West Ocean Dragon Palace knew that Zhao Kuo must have gotten the mystic crystal again. Judging from the natural phenomenon, the mystic crystal that Zhao Kuo refined must be of a high level.
If the West Ocean Dragon Palace wanted to surpass the East Ocean Dragon Palace, they had to get a Heavenly Dragon Realm master before East Ocean did.
"With Oldman Zeng's realm, he can charge into the Heavenly Dragon Realm?" Hao Ren asked in confusion.
"There are two ways to charge into the Heavenly Dragon Realm. One is to reach peak Qian-level and activate nature essence, and the other is to fight until the end of one's life," Elder Sun explained.
"Oh …" Hao Ren nodded. It seemed like Zeng Xin used the latter method.
Elder Lu and Elder Sun's analysis was correct, but they didn't know that Zhao Kuo had penetrated thousands of meters under the sea with the Mystic Water Sword Techniques last night, causing the entire ocean to shake. This made the West Ocean Dragon Palace think that Zhao Kuo had reached such a horrifying strength after successfully refining the mystic crystal. Shocked, Zeng Xin thought about it and finally decided to take the risk.
The deeper reason was that Zeng Xin thought that Zhao Haoran was behind the East Ocean Dragon Palace. Zeng Xin didn't have much life left, and he thought that he could kill Zhao Haoran with his age. Then, he could suppress East Ocean with his experience and realm.
However, when West Ocean and East Ocean battled, Zhao Haoran fought them head-on, and he was very healthy and powerful. This made Zeng Xin feel hopeless.
Zeng Xin didn't know that Zhao Haoran, who had disappeared from the world, could kill him, the old dragon king of the West Ocean Dragon Palace, just by hiding the news!
Zhao Haoran's existence, Zhao Kuo's mystic crystal breakthrough, and Hao Ren's strength at the Dragon God Shrine … Everything made Zeng Xin tremble. "If I knew that East Ocean would be so powerful, I wouldn't have used Zhao Yanzi as an excuse to offend the East Ocean Dragon Palace!"
Zhao Hongyu interrupted Elder Lu and Elder Sun with a slight frown. "The West Ocean Dragon Palace has always been the most powerful among the four ocean dragon palaces, and they fought the demon beasts in the Demon Sea the most ruthlessly. Now, the elders of the West Ocean Dragon Palace are greatly weakened, and the West Ocean Dragon Palace suffered great losses in the battle with us. After Oldman Zeng failed to charge into the Heavenly Dragon Realm, the demon beasts near the West Ocean Dragon Palace are no longer afraid, and they are all charging toward the West Ocean Dragon Palace for revenge."
She glanced at the people in the main palace and asked, "What do you think now? Should we send troops or not?"
Elder Lu and Elder Sun looked at each other and didn't speak.
Elder Xingyue lowered her head slightly and didn't speak either.
Zhao Hongyu looked at Hao Ren again.
Hao Ren was the Fuma of the East Ocean Dragon Palace and the Commanding General of East Ocean who commanded thousands of troops.
"Even if we don't send troops, the South Ocean Dragon Clan and the North Ocean Dragon Clan will send troops," Hao Ren said.
Zhao Hongyu shook her head. "According to the information we received, the two clans are not sending troops. They must be pretending that they didn't receive the news. The West Ocean Dragon Palace is in a mess, and they might not be able to send out a distress signal. "
"No, South Ocean and North Ocean must have already moved," Hao Ren said immediately.
Zhao Hongyu looked at Hao Ren in surprise.
"Report …" a long yell came from outside the main palace.
"What news?" Zhao Guang looked toward the door.
"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 outside answered in a loud voice.
Zhao Hongyu looked at Hao Ren in surprise, not expecting him to be so accurate.
"Mom … What's the matter?" Zhao Yanzi came to the main palace in a small shirt.
When she saw the red teeth marks on Hao Ren's neck, she lowered her head shyly and tried to go back.
"Zi!" Zhao Hongyu looked at Zhao Yanzi angrily, and Zhao Yanzi had no choice but to walk over.
Zhao Guang put his hand on the table and stood up. He stared at Hao Ren and said, "In your opinion, how many soldiers should East Ocean send?"
Since the South Ocean Dragon Clan and the North Ocean Dragon Clan had already sent troops, it would be unreasonable for the East Ocean Dragon Clan to not do anything.
"500,000 soldiers!" Hao Ren said lightly.
"500,000? Isn't that a bit too much …" Premier Xia reminded him in a low voice.
Hao Ren smiled, but the purple teeth marks on his cheeks made his smile less radiant than it should be.
"If it were Third Uncle, do you think he would send troops?" Hao Ren asked.
Premier Xia shook his head. "Third Lord hates the West Ocean Dragon Clan the most. He won't send troops when the West Ocean Dragon Clan is in trouble."
"I think so too." Hao Ren nodded. "However, when it comes to fighting for territory, the more soldiers the better."
Hearing Hao Ren's words, everyone, including Elder Lu and Elder Sun, felt their hearts skip a beat.
Fighting the demon beasts was not the purpose of fighting for the territory of the West Ocean Dragon Clan. Hao Ren's words immediately pointed out the intentions of the South Ocean Dragon Clan and the North Ocean Dragon Clan. Therefore, Hao Ren was right that the two dragon clans would send troops!
The East Ocean Dragon Clan was a righteous and benevolent people. When they suddenly received the news, they didn't think in this direction.
"Summon the troops!" Hao Ren shouted without hesitation.
