Roar …
Qiu Niu let out an angry roar, and his dragon whiskers straightened while balls of flames surrounded his body. It was the image of a raging dragon.
However, he suddenly calmed down.
Lady Zhen's cold words contained the words' Father '.
She was still upset, but she acknowledged Qiu Niu as her father to a certain extent.
Due to the things that happened in the past, the father-daughter relationship had been severed for thousands of years. Lady Zhen even sent Hao Ren and Su Han to the Nine Dragon Palace to injure him when he was in seclusion cultivation.
The purple gold hairpin that exploded was controlled by Lady Zhen herself!
This was Lady Zhen's protest against Qiu Niu for taking away Zhen Congming!
"Father …"
Qiu Niu floated in the high sky and savored these words.
Lady Zhen didn't express any gratitude, but she acknowledged their father-daughter relationship again! If Qiu Niu didn't do anything, Lady Zhen would be reincarnated fearlessly with the severed father-daughter relationship!
Qiu Niu would no longer have this daughter, and Lady Zhen would no longer have this father! Everything would be gone with the wind along with the reincarnation cycle.
Hu! Hu!
Qiu Niu spat out flames from his nostrils.
He suddenly saw Hao Ren and Su Han on the surface of the ocean, and he was enraged.
Hao Ren saw Qiu Niu's piercing gaze, and he felt a chill down his spine.
It turned out that he and Su Han were instigated by Lady Zhen to attack Qiu Niu in the Nine Dragon Palace because of the conflict between father and daughter!
Zhen Congming was Qiu Niu's grandson. No wonder Lady Zhen wasn't anxious when her son was taken away by Qiu Niu. However, there was a trace of anger in her words.
Lady Zhen didn't want to see Qiu Niu again, so she planned to ask Hao Ren and Su Han to help her get the godly item when Qiu Niu was at his weakest so that she could revive her husband!
Of course, Qiu Niu knew what Lady Zhen was thinking. It was possible that Qiu Niu went easy on her during the battle at the Heaven-Reaching Tower in the Nine Dragon Palace!
It turned out that Hao Ren and Su Han fought in the Nine Dragon Palace to repair their father-daughter relationship!
However, the most innocent person should still be Zhen Congming. Until now, he still didn't know that this "master" who never taught him any high-level cultivation techniques and always made him cook and refine pills was actually his maternal grandfather!
He was still immersed in the happiness of escaping from his "master" and flirting with Wu Luoxue!
"Hmph!"
Qiu Niu couldn't control his daughter, so he reached out his dragon claws and tried to grab Hao Ren.
Ding! Ding!
Two rays of light, one white and one red, shot out from the sea and blocked Qiuniu's dragon claws.
The white streak was easily shaken off by Qiuniu's claws, while the red streak blocked Qiuniu's claws.
"Hehehehe …"
Mount Penglai rose from afar. Zhenyuanzi, who was wearing a plain Taoist robe, floated on the Immortal Mountain. He held a horsetail whisk in his hand and smiled.
That red light came from his direction.
"Ancestral Master Qiu Niu, this young friend is my sworn brother. If he has offended you in any way, as his elder brother, I will apologize on your behalf."
While speaking, Zhenyuanzi leaned the horsetail whisk on his arm and bowed slightly to Qiu Niu.
Qiu Niu froze when he saw Zhenyuanzi suddenly appear.
He didn't expect this kid to be the sworn brother of Zhenyuanzi, the ancestor of Earthly Immortals.
Zhenyuanzi was a figure who had attained Dao in the Chaotic Era, and he was of the same generation as Qiu Niu. This ancestor of Earthly Immortals was humble, polite, and extraordinary. However, Qiu Niu had to be polite to him because of his status and strength.
Now that Zhenyuanzi apologized on his own initiative, Qiu Niu was a bit embarrassed. It seemed like he was bullying Zhenyuanzi.
Zhenyuanzi cultivated the Orthodox Dao and lived a peaceful life. He did not fight for anything and had not fought for many years. However, Qiu Niu could tell from the red light that Zhenyuanzi's strength should not be weaker than his!
Qiu Niu had saved Lady Zhen, and he had thought that Lady Zhen would thank him. However, Lady Zhen had given him a cold face. Displeased, Qiu Niu had wanted to teach Hao Ren a lesson. In fact, he wouldn't have seriously injured Hao Ren.
However, Zhenyuanzi had appeared, and he couldn't even touch Hao Ren.
If he hit Hao Ren after Zhenyuanzi's words, it would be the same as turning against Zhenyuanzi …
"Hehehe, I see. This little friend fought with me in the Nine Dragon Palace, and I want to give him some pointers!"
Qiu Niu's dragon claws suddenly shot out a wave of fire.
Six fire stones were embedded into Hao Ren's body, and they instantly burned into a dragon-shaped totem.
Hao Ren felt excruciating pain all over his body, but after a short moment of pain, he felt like all the acupoints in his body were connected.
Qiu Niu couldn't attack Hao Ren for the sake of Zhenyuanzi's reputation. However, Hao Ren had attacked him in the Nine Dragon Palace, and Qiu Niu was still displeased. With his status as the Ancestral Dragon, he couldn't embarrass Hao Ren. Although it looked like he was helping Hao Ren increase his cultivation strength, he was actually severely punishing Hao Ren.
"Hehe, thank you, Ancestral Master Qiu Niu." With Zhen Yuan Zi's realm, how could he not see that Qiu Niu's six fire stones made Hao Ren in great pain but also unblocked his dragon meridians?
He called Qiu Niu Ancestral Master not because Qiu Niu was more senior than him, but because Qiu Niu was the ancestor of dragon cultivators, and he was the ancestor of Earthly Immortals. They didn't belong to the same system.
Strictly speaking, Hao Ren was a member of the Dragon Tribe despite his special status, and it was within the rules that Qiu Niu, the Ancestral Master, wanted to teach Hao Ren a lesson.
"Brother Hao, hurry up and thank Ancestral Master Qiu Niu," Zhen Yuan Zi reminded Hao Ren with a smile.
"Thank you, Ancestral Master Qiu Niu!" Hao Ren lifted his sore arm and cupped his hands at Qiu Niu.
"Humph!"
Qiu Niu hovered in the high sky while spitting out flames from his nostrils.
He didn't know that Hao Ren had such a background, but Zhen Yuan Zi was kind enough to give him a way out.
"Here are two Ginseng Fruits. Brother, you must heal your injuries after returning to the land." Zhen Yuan Zi took out two white fruits from his sleeve and tossed them to Hao Ren lightly.
The white fruits flew in two beautiful arcs in the high sky and landed in Hao Ren's palm.
Qiu Niu wanted to teach Hao Ren a lesson, but he made Hao Ren suffer and helped Hao Ren's cultivation. In Zhen Yuan Zi's eyes, this was the will of the Heavens.
Since Hao Ren was chosen by the Heavenly Dao, he naturally received the help of the Heavenly Dao.
Lady Zhen was able to escape this disaster because of their good relationship and the secret help of the Heavenly Dao.
"Thank you, Brother … Zhen Yuan!"
Hao Ren put away the fruit, and he felt a little awkward when he called out.
"Ancestral Master Qiu Niu, I still have two extra Ginseng Fruits. If you don't mind, please take them as a gift of apology to my younger brother."
Zhen Yuan Zi waved his horsetail whisk and took out two white Ginseng Fruits from his sleeve. Then, he pushed a plate forward, and the plate floated to Qiu Niu.
Qiu Niu was at an important moment in his seclusion cultivation. After being disturbed by Hao Ren and Su Han and helping Lady Zhen block the World-Ending Lightning Tribulation, he needed the Heavenly Fruits to heal his body. Zhen Yuan Zi's two Ginseng Fruits were a timely help.
Zhen Yuan Zi emphasized that these were gifts of apology to Qiu Niu, which showed his respect.
"Extra Ginseng Fruits" was just a courtesy. After all, Zhen Yuan Zi's Ginseng Fruit Tree only produced about 30 Ginseng Fruits in 10,000 years, and they weren't wild fruits that could be picked and given away.
However, the fact that Zhen Yuan Zi gave Hao Ren two Ginseng Fruits proved that he had a special relationship with Hao Ren.
"I'll remember Zhen Yuan Immortal's kindness!" Qiu Niu took the two precious Ginseng Fruits and flew toward the Nine Dragon Palace on a fiery cloud.
After leaving Hao Ren and Su Han in the Demon Sea, he had planned to take them back to the Nine Dragon Palace. After all, since they could enter the Nine Dragon Palace, they had to get out on their own!
However, the two Ginseng Fruits he got from Zhen Yuan Zi could make up for the loss of cultivation strength that Hao Ren and Su Han had lost. Therefore, he had no reason to torture them anymore.
"Little girl! I'll only lend it to you for one month! If you don't return it within the time limit, I'll take it myself! "Qiu Niu yelled as he flew toward the Nine Dragon Palace.
Obviously, he was talking to Su Han. The Nuwa Stone had been shot into Su Han's body by Lady Zhen, and taking it out would destroy her cultivation physique. Qiu Niu's one-month time limit was already very generous!
It was already a great fortune to be able to borrow such a godly item for three days!
Zhen Yuan Zi's two Ginseng Fruits had brought him great benefits!
Hao Ren didn't understand the meaning behind it. He was still worried that Su Han couldn't charge into the Heavenly Dragon Realm in one month, thinking that Qiu Niu was too overbearing.
"You two, don't think that everything is fine!" Qiu Niu suddenly shouted toward the sea surface.
This roar shook the entire Demon Sea, and waves that were several meters high appeared. The majestic voice penetrated the bottom of the sea and could be heard clearly in the deep sea.
"Don't worry, Father. We'll take care of Second Uncle!" Lady Zhen's crisp voice came from the bottom of the sea.
"Humph!" With a snort, Qiu Niu dashed into the Nine Dragon Palace. In the blink of an eye, the Nine Dragon Palace disappeared into the void.
Although he had helped Lady Zhen block the World-Ending Lightning Tribulation, it didn't mean that the matter was over. Among the nine brothers, Qiu Niu wasn't the most powerful one.
In the past, Lady Zhen had knelt down and cried for his help, but he didn't help her. That was why Lady Zhen left in a rage and cut off their relationship as father and daughter.
If he didn't help her this time, he wouldn't have this daughter anymore. After thousands of years of reflection, his mentality had changed.
However, Lady Zhen had tried her best to revive her husband, and no one knew how things would turn out.
Looking at the Nine Dragon Palace disappearing into the sky, Hao Ren wondered if the herbs he had collected were enough to make the Seven-Core Five-Color Lotus.
His sworn brother, Zhen Yuan Zi, might be able to gather the materials, but Hao Ren had eaten several of his Ginseng Fruits, so he didn't want his help.
"The Heavenly Dao is vast, and you must work harder, Brother!" Standing on Penglai Island in the distance, Zhen Yuan Zi looked at Hao Ren and said earnestly.
"Yes!" Hao Ren cupped his hands and answered.
If he couldn't reach the Heavenly Dragon Realm, he wouldn't be able to call himself Zhen Yuan Zi's sworn brother!
Zhen Yuan Zi waved his horsetail whisk, and his body disappeared into the mist of the Demon Sea along with Penglai Island.
Qiu Niu couldn't bear to let go of his daughter, so he blocked the World-Ending Lightning Tribulation and messed up the Heavenly Dao. Perhaps it was the Heavenly Will …
