Dragon King’s Son-In-Law

The mist gradually thinned out, and the 40 Core Formation Realm cultivators on the outside looked at the situation nervously. Finally, they saw their peers through the fog.

Mo Lianshan was the first to get out; the 40 cultivators outside the energy sphere quickly broke an opening for him.

Mo Lianshan had his robe all torn up, and his right hand had a hole in it, about the size of half a fist. There were also more than a dozen wounds on his legs, and his level 4 snow lion was also bleeding heavily.

He was at top-tier Core Formation Realm and was hurt like this. The others didn’t need to be mentioned; they were in worse conditions.

“This is not an illusion array formation at all! It is a murderous array formation!” they thought.

These low-tier Core Formation Realm cultivators were lucky to escape with their lives, and they had lingering fears. For Core Formation Realm cultivators like them, if their golden cores were unharmed, there was no big problem.

Mo Lianshan snorted loudly, but he did not dare to rush in again. This array formation was not for Core Formation Realm cultivators to break.

If they wanted to break it, they needed the help of Nascent Soul Realm cultivators!

Mo Lianshan couldn’t believe that such a powerful array formation actually existed on Fifth Heaven.

“This Ethereal Summit lived up to its reputation!” he thought. He knew that if the cultivators inside the valley wanted to kill them, they would have died.

“In the end, they are fearful of our Sky Mountain Sect.” Mo Lianshan waved and said, “Set an array formation here; We will attack again at night!”

He flew far away to a rock and healed his injuries.

The remaining Core Formation Realm cultivators were feeling awkward.

“The cultivators in Ethereal Summit let us live, but Mo Lianshan thinks that he is scared of us… and he is trying to get us to attack again at midnight,” they thought.

Cultivating to the Core Formation Realm was hard. Therefore, these cultivators did not really dare to risk their lives again. If they angered the cultivators inside the valley, they would have to pay with their lives.

Those Core Formation Realm cultivators who did not go in looked embarrassed as well. If Mo Lianshan wanted them to attack again at midnight, they might be the ones who would be picked. In their minds, this array formation was like the legendary Immortal Extermination Array. It would be like suicide if they had to go in.

In the valley, Xie Yujia saw the cultivators retreating and let out a sigh of relief.

She already had a weak body, and she suddenly felt dizzy and fell in Hao Ren’s arms after having to channel a large amount of nature essence for her.

Hao Ren held her and gently clenched her wrist. He felt her pulse, which was normal, and knew that she was just drained; she was going to be fine after some rest.

Usually, Xie Yujia had red cheeks and appeared very healthy. Now, she looked pale and radiated a special kind of beauty.

In the knitted sweater, her thin arms were slightly translucent like jade, and they were gently folded on her stomach.

The rolled-up jeans exposed her smooth lower legs, and it was a breathtaking sight when they were contrasted with white sports shoes.

Hao Ren looked up and saw that the cultivators of Sky Mountain Sect did not rush in. Then, he picked up Xie Yujia and flew to her cave abode.

Zhao Yanzi was more severely injured. Right now, she was biting her teeth and gradually recovering.

Seeing Hao Ren carrying Xie Yujia into the cave, she did not get jealous but expressed care in her eyes.

Sensing her mood, Hao Ren took the initiative and said, “She’s fine; she just fainted due to over exhaustion.”

“Oh…” Zhao Yanzi responded simply, but Hao Ren saw that she became less worried.

“Friendship is best found in adversity. Trapped in the valley together, their relationship improved,” Hao Ren thought.

He didn’t know that Xie Yujia was severely injured because she saved Zhao Yanzi. Zhao Yanzi was feeling very guilty, and she was gradually reflecting on whether she had been too mean to Xie Yujia.

In Xie Yujia’s cave, there was only one stone bed. Carrying Xie Yujia, Hao Ren looked at Duan Yao who was all tied up and put her on the ground before placing Xie Yujia on the bed.

Duan Yao sat on the cold floor and stared at Hao Ren angrily.

Hao Ren did not care about what she thought. He gently laid Xie Yujia on the stone bed, took out an essence replenish pill, and placed it in her mouth carefully.

Duan Yao sat by the bed and watched carefully. She was surprised by how Hao Ren did all those things carefully.

Usually, there was some degree of care between dual-cultivation partners. But for concubines, their status was almost the same as disciples and maids; they were never taken care of.

Even for female cultivators in the Core Formation realm who had high status in their sects, they had to act according to the Nascent Soul Realm cultivators’ mood after they became concubines.

Hao Ren slightly turned his head to Duan Yao when he felt her gaze.

Duan Yao was thinking about dual cultivation and concubines. Therefore, when she saw Hao Ren looking at her, she blushed slightly and stared back at him fiercely.

Hao Ren picked up a piece of cloth and circled it around Duan Yao’s head to cover her eyes.

“Mmm! Mmm!”

Duan Yao immediately twisted her shoulders to express resistance.

“This evil person, pervert, bully!” Duan Yao could not shout with her mouth but resisted intensely in her heart.

After she twisted for a while, she realized that Hao Ren did not touch her. It was only that her eyes were covered so that she could not see the situation in the cave abode.

Therefore, she remained stiff and got anxious.

Actually, Hao Ren did not care about her at all. He only felt uncomfortable being stared at, so he covered her eyes.

By the bed, Hao Ren picked up Xie Yujia’s right hand and injected pure nature essence into her. Xie Yujia cultivated five-element Life-Death Notes, so Hao Ren could perfectly supply her with five-elemental nature essence.

Xie Yujia’s cold right hand gradually warmed up. When Hao Ren felt that her cultivation technique had started to operate on its own, he put back his hand.

Turning around, Hao Ren saw Zhao Yanzi widening her eyes and looking at him. It felt like she saw somebody else having candy but was too embarrassed to ask.

“Got to be fair…” Hao Ren turned around to sit across from Zhao Yanzi. Then, he picked up her small hand.

Zhao Yanzi slightly pulled back her hand when she saw Hao Ren sitting down, but she immediately stopped resisting.

Hao Ren sent streaks of pure water-elemental nature essence into Zhao Yanzi’s body through her arm.

Zhao Yanzi had lost her dragon core, and she decided to start cultivation all over again through Qi Refinement Scroll. Now, she had a pure water body type. If she showed up at a gathering between cultivation sects, she would be desperately fought over; she could probably become the favorite disciple of influential elders!

Zhao Yanzi saw Hao Ren injecting nature essence into her attentively and blushed.

Thinking that she thought of Hao Ren in the most dangerous moments, she felt warm and soft.

“Show me your injury,” Hao Ren whispered as he unbuttoned the clothes around Zhao Yanzi’s shoulder.

Zhao Yanzi’s face turned red, but Hao Ren already pulled down the clothes covering her left shoulder and gazed at her exposed skin.

Xie Yujia had already put back her injured bones and wrapped a few bandages around it. She also poured alcohol and some medicinal powder on the wound. In such an emergency, this treatment was quite meticulous.

When Hao Ren turned around, he saw Duan Yao sitting by the bed with the cloth off; she had rubbed off the cloth around her head against the bed, and her dark eyes were staring at Hao Ren.

Seeing Hao Ren being so considerate to Zhao Yanzi made her feel spiteful. Zhao Yanzi was her nemesis, and Hao Ren was the pervert in her eyes. But when she saw the look of Hao Ren’s face when he tended to Zhao Yanzi’s injury, she felt a little jealous inside.

“You’re badly injured.” Hao Ren gently put his palm on Zhao Yanzi’s shoulder. Water-elemental and wood-elemental nature essences had healing properties, so he gradually applied these nature essences onto the injuries.

Zhao Yanzi’s shoulder was wrapped with a few thin bandages, but her skin around it was exposed. When Hao Ren’s palm held her, she felt strange inside but did not resist.

“Humph!” Duan Yao snorted.

“It’s going to be fine. Take more rest,” Hao Ren said and dressed Zhao Yanzi.

Duan Yao looked at the intimate lovers and blew up her pink cheeks angrily. When she saw Hao Ren looking over, she immediately turned her head away.

The law of the jungle ruled the cultivation world. Zhao Yanzi and Xie Yujia’s realms were below hers, but she still got captured. There was nothing more to say.

“If this pervert crosses any boundaries, I will kill myself!” she thought.

“But… this way of dying is very painful… If there isn’t enough nature essence, I will suffer a pain worse than death…” When Duan Yao was thinking to herself and holding in her anger, her tied-up wrists were put over.

She turned around and saw Hao Ren grabbing her delicate small hand.

“Mmm! Mmm!” Duan Yao’s mouth was stuffed with a piece of cloth and could not shout, but her fear was expressed through her eyes.

No matter how desperate she struggled, her wrists were still cuffed by Hao Ren’s fingers.

Suddenly, streaks of pure five-elemental nature essence flowed from Hao Ren’s palm into her arms.

Duan Yao was shocked; she suddenly remembered that this feeling of pure nature essence was only felt once from her grand uncle-master who was at top-tier Nascent Soul Realm!

When her grand uncle-master nurtured her body, the pure fire-elemental nature essence was used. However, Hao Ren was sending her pure five-elemental nature essence.

Duan Yao looked at Hao Ren in shock, and her attitude immediately changed.

“This pervert is actually this powerful?!

In her surprise, she even forgot to struggle. She looked at Hao Ren in a daze and thought, “I thought I could rival with him if I have better dharma treasures, but a Core Formation Realm cultivator can’t obtain his pure nature essence!”

Duan Yao stared at Hao Ren and thought that he was a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator.

There were incidents where some Nascent Soul Realm cultivators had accidents during cultivation or were sneak-attacked by other Nascent Soul Realm enemies. In those situations, they would drop to the Core Formation Realm. Duan Yao had not seen this happen but knew about it.

When Nascent Soul Realm cultivators fell back to the Core Formation Realm, they had to cultivate to Nascent Soul Realm all over again. Since they had reached the Nascent Soul Realm before, their cultivation speed was much faster, and the purity of their nature essence remained at the Nascent Soul Realm.

“Perhaps… this pervert is actually a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator… and he set foot on Fifth Heaven to hide from his enemies… But… I have never seen a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator this young and with such good looks…” she thought.

How could Hao Ren know that so many thoughts had already flashed across Duan Yao’s mind when he was examining her conditions.

He saw that Duan Yao fixated her gaze on him and felt a bit creeped out. However, Duan Yao’s serious expression and her dark pupils were quite cute.

“Humph!” Hao Ren pretended to be fierce and suddenly pulled back his nature essence.

“Ow…” When Hao Ren’s nature essence suddenly pulled out, Duan Yao felt like knives were cutting in her veins. She suddenly shivered out of pain and groaned while biting onto the cloth in her mouth.

She stared at Hao Ren furiously and suddenly remembered that even if he were a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, she should not respect him!

Hao Ren stood up and looked at her calmly.

He knew that Zhao Yanzi was sometimes too reckless, but Duan Yao was crueler. When they met for the first time, Duan Yao commanded a level 5 snow lion to bully Zhao Yanzi and Little White due to their disagreement, and she even slashed at Zhao Yanzi with her mighty sword.

If it weren’t for Hao Ren’s rescue, Zhao Yanzi might have been heavily injured, and Little White would have been taken away by Duan Yao.

Hao Ren suddenly pulled out his nature essence to punish Duan Yao since she almost broke Zhao Yanzi’s shoulder and made Xie Yujia lose her life.

This little punishment was nothing on Fifth Heaven. The cultivators on Fifth Heaven might even pull out their enemies’ souls and torture them that way.

Hao Ren reached and took out the cloth in Duan Yao’s mouth.

He just tested Duan Yao’s body and discovered that she had the pure fire body type, one of the best body types there were when it came to cultivation.

“Thief! My Sky Mountain Sect will certainly cut you to thousands of pieces!” Duan Yao took a deep breath and shouted at Hao Ren.

She now hated Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi to the guts. They robbed her techniques and dharma treasures, and they also captured her. With her background, who else dared to treat her like this?

Just for rubbing her, she felt like Hao Ren deserved to be turned into ashes.

“When my senior brothers break in, I will ask them to imprison these three until the end of time!” she thought.

On and above Fifth Heaven, even taking someone else’s dharma treasures was a huge offense; it was worthy of killing the other party!

Zhao Yanzi only robbed Duan Yao’s things to piss her off, but little did she know that she was already the priority on Duan Yao’s kill list!

“When my grand uncle-master is out from seclusion cultivation, he will kill you all!” Duan Yao stared at Hao Ren and said fiercely.

Even real Nascent Soul Realm cultivator couldn’t fight against her grand uncle-master, let alone Hao Ren who was ‘once a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator!’

“However, I won’t ask Grand Uncle-Master to take care of Zhao Yanzi; I will do it myself!” she thought.

“Haha,” Hao Ren chuckled and reached out his hand. “Hand over the rest of your things.”
