Dragon King’s Son-In-Law

“The Demon Sea… Demon Sea again…” Every time Hao Ren heard these words, his nerve would jump.

“Also, you’re pretty eye-catching these days?” Su Hao waved the inspector’s token in her hand and said.

The inspector’s tokens were the famous dharma treasures from the Dragon God Shrine. Not only could they find the location of nearby inspectors, but they could also receive lots of different news from the Dragon God Shrine. Su Han read over the accumulated news she got in the token during the few minutes she changed, and she was able to immediately find out about what happened at the West Ocean Dragon Palace.

“Hehe… hehe…” Hao Ren smiled awkwardly.

He did not dare to be proud in front of Su Han. The two Five-Mountain Bracelets were able to suppress him.

“Don’t trigger those demon beasts in the Demon Sea. According to my information, the region of Demon Sea near East Ocean Dragon Clan has Snow Crystal Corals, which are good for improving the quality of natal dharma treasures. If you’re interested, you could come with me. If you’re not interested, I’ll go alone,” Su Han said.

Her voice was cold, but Hao Ren could tell that she wanted him to go with her.

“The information about the Snow Crystal Corals isn’t new, but Su Han hadn’t done anything up until today. This means that she is waiting for me to go with her…” Hao Ren thought.

“Sure. I’ll go with you,” Hao Ren said.

“Let’s go.” Su Han put the token back inside her body and immediately started moving.

Like what he had expected, Su Han was planning to go with Hao Ren. However, Hao Ren didn’t know that Su Han was planning to use him as a meat shield…

They walked out of the Dragon God Shrine.

Su Han took out her longsword and prepared to fly.

She had this longsword for three years now. She was only at Kun-level when she first obtained it. This longsword was enough for her before, but she was now at top-tier Qian-level and even made a small breakthrough at the Dragon God Shrine. That was why she needed to enhance this dharma treasure and prepare for the Heavenly Tribulation.

She wasn’t the only one who thought she should enhance her weapon. Hao Ren also felt that she should do it. After all, Su Han was a Qian-level cultivator, but her natal dharma treasure’s quality was worse than Zeng Yitao’s. It didn’t suit her status.

If a natal dharma treasure were too weak, it would limit the user’s power.

Another disadvantage was that it couldn’t withstand strong nature essences. If Su Han was fighting someone powerful, and her sword broke, there would be severe consequences.

Su Han took out her longsword and jumped onto it. She saw that Hao Ren froze on the spot and couldn’t help but rush him, “Why aren’t you coming on?”

“Use mine.” Hao Ren opened the River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting.

Su Han recognized that this was Zhao Hongyu’s River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting as she had seen it before. It was wider, but its speed wasn’t that fast; it was slower than the traveling speed of her sword.

Su Han wanted speed and not comfort.

Hao Ren didn’t care about Su Han’s reactions. He reached out and dragged her on.

Su Han’s face was cold, and she was getting angry. However, the River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting flew out of the Dragon God Shrine in the blink of an eye.

Hua… It was almost the speed of a Soul Transformation Realm cultivator.

Su Han did not expect this kind of speed, so she almost fell off the River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting.

When she was about to fall, she quickly grabbed onto Hao Ren’s arm.

Hao Ren smiled and increased the speed even more.

He wasn’t pretending to be cool. It was that the faster the speed, the safer it was.

Su Han’s longsword wasn’t slow, but with two people on it, those Transformation Realm demon beasts could create gigantic waves and drag them into the water.

“The primitive treasures from the Nine Dragon Palace are definitely incredible…” Su Han slowly let go of Hao Ren’s arm and thought to herself.

Whoosh! The River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting created a rainbow as it flew crossed the sea. The primitive treasures from the Nine Dragon Palace were mostly simple, but this River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting was one of the few treasures that were delicate and beautiful.

Hao Ren had used the River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting to fly people around these days, and he suddenly felt like he was a taxi driver. However, he would still have to return this River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting to Zhao Hongyu. Little White was coming back soon, so he could leave the duty of carrying people around to Little White.

The soldiers of East Ocean who were hidden in the ocean saw the River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting. However, they did not have enough time to come out and greet since it was too fast.

The Demon Sea!

The Immortal Spirit Island, which was between East Ocean Dragon Clan and the Demon Sea, appeared before Hao Ren.

“Into the sea!” Su Han said.

She took out her longsword, indicating that she was alerted.

Hao Ren created an energy sphere as they dived into the sea.

The sea seemed no different from that of the territory under East Ocean Dragon Clan’s control. Everywhere was quiet, and the green aquatic plants flowed softly.

Hao Ren put away the River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting and followed Su Han closely. Su Han’s long black robe fluttered with the waves, and she exhibited a calm and peaceful beauty.

“Don’t open the energy sphere. It’ll alert the demon beasts nearby.” Su Hao’s words were conveyed to Hao Ren’s mind through the tokens.

Usually, only those cultivators above the Nascent Soul Realm could send voice transmission. However, with the inspector’s token, they could communicate through spiritual senses, which made it a super convenient dharma treasure when they went on vacations or were inspecting a crime scene.

Hao Ren heard Su Han’s warning when he was just about to put away the energy sphere. He quickly stopped and tried to hide his aura.

Su Hao came to the Demon Sea to get Snow Crystal Corals. She came with Hao Ren because they could look out for each other and could communicate conveniently through the tokens. She didn’t expect him to be able to scare away those high-level demon beasts.

Inspectors would move in teams after getting missions from that elder on the first floor of the Dragon God Shrine. Su Han didn’t like teaming up with people and always worked by herself. This meant that she couldn’t go to dangerous places. However, Hao Ren was a trustworthy partner.

“Demon beast,” Su Hao warned and turned invisible immediately.

“Damn…” Hao Ren realized that he couldn’t sense Su Han’s aura, so he knew that she had used a Qian-level’s technique and went into complete stealth.

“Level 3 demon beast, not strong. You’re responsible for luring it away.” Su Han first swam elegantly like a squid to hide amongst dense aquatic plants and then ordered Hao Ren through the token.

Hao Ren’s head numbed; he realized that he was a bait!

The level 3 demon beast came over. It saw Hao Ren and rushed over with a roar.

“Thanks!” Su Han’s crisp voice was transmitted to Hao Ren through spiritual senses.

Hao Ren rushed to back out of the Demon Sea, but the level 3 demon beast swam and chased him closely. This type of low-level demon beasts didn’t have intelligence so that they couldn’t estimate the difference in strength between themselves and their opponents. They only knew how to attack.

There were lots of these types of low-level demon beasts in the outskirts of the Demon Sea. As soon as a cultivator was slowed down by one, many would follow.

The Snow Crystal Corals that Su Han was looking for were in the outskirts of the Demon Sea, very close to the territories of the East Ocean Dragon Clan.

She was a Qian-level cultivator, so she wasn’t scared of these low-level demon beasts. But if these low-level demon beasts followed her and made huge noises, she would attract level 8 or 9 demon beasts. There was a possibility that she might even draw the attention of demon kings.

However, cultivation was about taking risks and getting big rewards. Su Han hid her aura while her spiritual senses spread into the area.

The nature essence intensity of the Demon Sea was high, so the spiritual herbs and dharma treasures were many times better than those outside. Rumour had it that the nature essence intensity in the center of the Demon Sea was thousands of times stronger than that of the outskirts. The center was like a nature essence spring, and the nature essence below Fifth Heaven came from there.

However, no one had proved this theory. It was heard that a Heavenly Dragon had only gone one-third in, and he was kicked out of there.

The strength of the demon kings in the Demon Sea was too strong. Even the Dragon God Shrine was afraid, so the Demon Sea became one of the few restricted places for inspectors. It was also the largest place with the least amount of available information

If it weren’t for increasing the quality of her natal dharma treasure to fight the Heavenly Tribulation, Su Han would not be willing to risk it, even if it were just the outskirts of the Demon Sea.

Demon Sea, Demon Sea… According to the weaker demon kings who sought shelter at the East Ocean Dragon Clan, there were hundreds of famous demon king in the Demon Sea, and the number of Transformation Realm demon beasts was even greater!

“Hurry up!” Hao Ren couldn’t help but remind Su Han since he sensed that she was moving further and further away from him.

“I’m fine. You be careful.” Su Han’s calm voice was transmitted to Hao Ren through the token. From the sound of it, she was still caring for him.

Hao Ren had the River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting, so he could use full speed to escape from these low-level demon beasts when it was necessary. However, he was worried about Su Han.

There were already tens of level 3 and level 4 demon beasts chasing after Hao Ren. Hao Ren rode his sword energy and swam through the water at great speed.

“Great! The Demon Sea sure has an abundance of resources!” Hao Ren heard Su Han’s surprised voice through his token.

Su Han was even surprised… It must be a fantastic scene. Hao Ren was able to imagine what Su Han had seen.

“Fox Immortal Herbs, Black Dragon Bone Grass, Motherly Whiskers, Matching Leaf Flower, Golden Ginseng…” Su Han listed the names. “What do you want? I’ll get if for you!”

“I don’t know much. I’ll take all of them!” Hao Ren said as he continued to escape.

“Damn you!” Su Han was a bit infuriated.

Hao Ren wanted to laugh when he heard Su Han’s words.

“I’m not really good at this stuff, and I still have to go find Snow Crystal Corals. I’ll pick three Black Dragon Bone Grasses for you. It’s a good ingredient for healing ointments. It can count as my gift to you,” Su Han said through the inspector’s tokens.

“OK!” Hao Ren didn’t care because he wasn’t sure about spiritual herbs either.

Suddenly, a demon beast charged in front of Hao Ren, so he had to hit it with five sword energies, sending it flying.

Even though these were low-level demon beasts, Hao Ren didn’t want to kill them as long as they didn’t go out of the boundaries of the Demon Sea.

“Level 10 demon beast!” Hao Ren heard Su Han’s shriek from his spiritual senses.

Boom! Waves suddenly rolled up in the Demon Sea.
