"Ok." Su Han nodded calmly and followed Lady Zhen to the door of the house.
Grandma was puzzled, but since Lady Zhen said that she would be back soon, it should be a small matter. Therefore, she didn't think too much about it and called out to Xie Yujia and the Lu sisters, "Little girl, Grandma is hungry. Go and make some food."
"Ok!" Xie Yujia and the Lu sisters immediately agreed cheerfully.
The Lu sisters sensed the presence of masters nearby, but they weren't worried since they had seen Lady Zhen's strength.
No matter what, Lady Zhen's gifts were a sign of goodwill, and it seemed that she didn't intend to take Zhen Congming back with her.
Although the Lu sisters didn't have much contact with Zhen Congming, they still took care of him since they had been with Hao Ren.
Since Zhen Congming was taken in as Qiu Niu's disciple, even Lady Zhen didn't dare to take him back to the Demon Sea without permission. Therefore, they came to see Zhen Congming during the Moon Festival as a form of reunion.
While the people in the house were busy making breakfast, Su Han and Lady Zhen walked out of the door.
It was drizzling outside, and Lady Zhen lit up her oil-paper umbrella. The colorful flower umbrella opened with a snap, and it looked especially bright in the gray and gloomy sky.
Walking beside Lady Zhen, Su Han was also covered by the umbrella.
"How many are here?" Lady Zhen asked Su Han.
"Six, and they are all at peak Qian-level," Su Han answered calmly.
Lady Zhen covered her mouth and chuckled. "Hehehe … It seems like your Dragon God Shrine doesn't get along well with metal-elemental dragons."
"I didn't say that." Su Han glanced at her coldly.
In fact, the Dragon God Shrine didn't have a good relationship with the metal-elemental dragons. The metal-elemental dragons were powerful and had special habits. They didn't obey the management of the Dragon God Shrine, and they had their own decision-making team, the Elder Council.
The six metal-elemental dragon cultivators at peak Qian-level were undoubtedly members of the Elder Council.
Although Su Han didn't know why they suddenly appeared here, as the regional inspector of East Ocean City, she was displeased that these metal-elemental dragons had entered East Ocean City.
That was why Su Han agreed immediately when Lady Zhen invited her to go out with them.
"Then, I'll teach him a lesson on behalf of the Dragon God Shrine." Lady Zhen pretended that she didn't hear Su Han's answer and flew up.
Not as powerful as Lady Zhen, Su Han didn't dare to be careless in the presence of six peak Qian-level metal-elemental dragon cultivators. With her longsword under her feet, she flew into the high sky.
Hua hua hua …
Six metal-elemental dragon cultivators in white Daoist robes dashed down from the clouds.
Su Han didn't waste time with them. Her longsword shot out a beam of green light. These cultivators were all peak-tier cultivators in the Elder Council of the metal-elemental dragons, and they should know the rules of the Dragon God Shrine.
They appeared in East Ocean City at the same time, which showed that they didn't respect the Dragon God Shrine at all.
Boom …
Suddenly, the green light split into six pieces and shot toward the six metal-elemental dragon cultivators.
The six metal-elemental dragon cultivators immediately blocked the green light. However, the moment they attacked, they felt their arms go slightly numb. They were secretly shocked.
The longsword was made from a white jade longsword, and it was infused with the Thunder Roc's tailbone. The Thunder Roc was one of the fastest demon beasts in the world, and it also had lightning elemental characteristics.
That was why the attack with the longsword contained some natural lightning energy.
"Special Envoy Su Han, please don't misunderstand us. We're here to inquire about something," one of the metal-elemental dragon cultivators said to Su Han.
Standing on the longsword, Su Han looked at them coldly. Since she was immersed in cultivation, she didn't know about Wang Shitong's death in East Ocean City, and the Dragon God Shrine didn't release any relevant information.
The six peak Qian-level metal-elemental dragon cultivators glanced at the beautiful woman beside Su Han and secretly checked her realm. Finding that she was only a mid-tier Qian-level cultivator, they ignored her and continued to look at Su Han.
Seeing Su Han's indifferent expression, they thought for a moment and said, "A metal-elemental dragon cultivator died in East Ocean City, and the six of us are here for this."
They were all peak Qian-level cultivators like Wang Shitong and members of the Elders Council. That was why they knew that Wang Shitong was killed in East Ocean City in a few days.
However, their original intention was to bypass the spies of the Dragon God Shrine and the regional inspectors of East Ocean City and directly arrest Hao Ren, who was a major suspect. They didn't expect Su Han to be here.
"Oh? Was a cultivator killed?" Su Han was a bit surprised. Then, she looked at them coldly and said, "Since it happened in East Ocean City, I should be the one to investigate it. Since when do you metal-elemental dragon cultivators have the right to intervene?"
The six metal-elemental dragon cultivators looked at each other with anger in their eyes.
The sudden death of Wang Shitong, a peak Qian-level cultivator who had the chance to charge into the Heavenly Dragon Realm, in East Ocean City was a big deal. That was why the six of them contacted each other and acted together. In the past hundreds of years, no one had dared to kill a metal-elemental dragon cultivator! Let alone a metal-elemental dragon cultivator who was at peak Qian-level!
Su Han had half of the metal-elemental dragon bloodline and represented the inspectors of the Dragon God Shrine here. They had already made some concessions by telling Su Han the purpose of their visit, but Su Han was still so aggressive.
However, Su Han was also angry. These metal-elemental dragon cultivators trespassed into East Ocean City's territory without informing her and even wanted to arrest a cultivator under her watch. They were too arrogant!
There were many metal-elemental dragon cultivators, but they were killed in East Ocean City. It was a big case. If the metal-elemental dragon cultivators told the Dragon God Shrine or Su Han, they could investigate it themselves.
"To tell you the truth, the cultivator who was killed was Wang Shitong, a peak Qian-level cultivator of our Elders Council," one of them continued.
"Peak Qian-level …"
Su Han froze for a second.
She had been wondering why the metal-elemental dragon cultivators would send six peak Qian-level cultivators after the death of one cultivator. It turned out that a peak Qian-level cultivator had died in East Ocean City.
However, who in the East Ocean City could kill a peak Qian-level super cultivator, especially a metal-elemental dragon cultivator who had the most powerful cultivation?
"We've investigated and found that the cultivator who is related to Wang Shitong is in this house. The six of us are here to ask this cultivator to cooperate with us in the investigation," one of the metal-elemental dragon cultivators said.
He pointed at Hao Ren's small house by the sea.
Meanwhile, the six of them released their powerful auras abruptly.
Standing on the longsword, Su Han was knocked back dozens of meters before she could stand still.
The cultivator whom the six metal-elemental dragon cultivators wanted to capture was Hao Ren!
Since Hao Ren was an inspector of the Dragon God Shrine, they didn't want to alert the Dragon God Shrine. That was why they had come to East Ocean City with their auras hidden. Now that Su Han was here and the two sides couldn't come to an agreement, there was no need to hide their strength!
Standing dozens of meters behind them, Lady Zhen saw Su Han being knocked back. She raised her hand and lightly touched Su Han's back with her fingertip, stopping her from falling back.
"Humph!"
With a snort, the six metal-elemental dragon cultivators dashed toward the house.
If it were just to capture a cultivator who was below Dui-level, the six of them wouldn't have to come together. They came to East Ocean City together because they were afraid that the powerful figure who killed Wang Shitong was still in the city.
However, they sensed no aura of a super master in the area! If they could capture Hao Ren, they could get some clues from him and find out who killed Wang Shitong!
The death of Wang Shitong, one of the eight elders, was a big event. If they could capture Hao Ren, the Dragon God Shrine wouldn't turn against the metal-elemental dragon cultivators just because of a minor inspector.
However, it wouldn't be so easy to communicate with the Dragon God Shrine and interrogate their inspectors!
For the metal-elemental dragon cultivators, force was the most direct and fastest way to solve problems!
"How dare you!"
Su Han suddenly realized that the cultivator they wanted to capture was probably Hao Ren!
She shot out three chilly energies from her longsword, blocking the way of the six metal-elemental dragon cultivators.
The six metal-elemental dragon cultivators suddenly appeared in East Ocean City and intentionally avoided the detection of the Dragon God Shrine. They were here to capture Hao Ren, an inspector of the Dragon God Shrine and the Commanding General of the East Ocean Dragon Clan!
"The metal-elemental dragons are really lawless! Are they going to start a war with the Dragon God Shrine and the East Ocean Dragon Clan?"
Except for Hao Ren, the Lu sisters, and the three mortals, Yue Yang, Hao Zhonghua, and Grandma were in the room!
The metal-elemental dragons were furious after losing a peak Qian-level elder, and they disregarded the rules of the Dragon Tribe!
If they fought, the cultivators like Hao Ren and Xie Yujia would be fine, but the mortals like Grandma would be in danger!
Feeling anxious, Su Han shot out three streaks of chilly air with all her nature essence.
The six metal-elemental dragon cultivators wouldn't come for nothing. It was obvious that they wanted to kidnap Hao Ren. As long as they took him back to their cave abodes, the Dragon God Shrine couldn't do anything to them!
The metal-elemental dragon cultivators didn't have organizations like dragon palaces, and each of them had their own cave abodes. If they captured Hao Ren, the Dragon God Shrine wouldn't even have a way to negotiate with them. The Dragon God Shrine could either attack the six peak Qian-level cultivators or declare war on the entire metal-elemental dragon clan! Bang!
Bang! Bang!
Her frost condensed into three ice pillars, but they were shattered by the fists of the metal-elemental dragon cultivators in the blink of an eye.
Even if she had reached peak Qian-level, she wouldn't be able to defeat the six old guys, let alone top-tier Qian-level!
Wang Shitong was the weakest among the eight peak Qian-level masters in the Elder Council, and these six metal-elemental dragon cultivators had reached peak Qian-level hundreds of years ago!
The Taiyi Cave Master had his own plan, and that was why he didn't come with them. However, the six metal-elemental dragon cultivators didn't think that a small regional inspector could stop them!
Six white lights flashed past Su Han.
Standing behind Su Han, Lady Zhen was closer to the house. Knowing that Su Han was a high-level inspector, the six metal-elemental dragon cultivators didn't fight back. However, the woman floating before them with a smile was an eyesore!
Hua! Hua!
Six white lights shot toward Lady Zhen.
Lady Zhen didn't move, and the gemstones inlaid in her colorful traditional dress lit up slightly.
The six blinding white lights seemed to have shot into cotton and didn't even lift the hem of her dress.
"Hahaha …" Lady Zhen covered her mouth and chuckled. "You guys attacked first."
Her delicate hand gently picked up her oil-paper umbrella.
Boom!
