Chapter 323: Time Together

Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated

Hao Ren had no clue that this would affect Su Han. Since this was a family issue that should be kept inside the East Ocean Dragon Clan between him and Zhao Yanzi, it wouldn’t be fair to drag Su Han into it.

Su Han took him as her assistant in order to provide him with protection under another identity. But now… Hao Ren felt incredibly sorry for Su Han, who looked calm at the moment.

She offered him patient instructions and teachings when Hao Ren just started cultivating, and she never treated him poorly, let alone the fact that Su Han got injured from protecting him when they were pushed out of the Nine Dragon Palace by Qiu Niu.

Su Han smiled lightly when she saw Hao Ren’s gloomy face. “Don’t overthink this. Since I am in the Inspector System, I will accept the Dragon God Shrine’s decision.”

She looked so calm that it felt like she wouldn’t regret any of her decisions even if she were severely punished.

Xie Yujia wasn’t too familiar with Su Han, but she had always thought that Su Han was a great teacher. After several encounters, she now felt like Su Han was also a lovely person.

Xie Yujia was a bit sad after knowing that Su Han might get transferred to another city.

Of course, the people who would be the most devastated after knowing this would be the guys in the East Ocean University, especially Hao Ren’s roommates.

As a matter of fact, although Su Han didn’t drop in level from this her serious injury, her combat abilities were not as powerful as before. It would take her at least five or six years to recover from the incident. Otherwise, even the Dragon God Shrine wouldn’t want to punish a Qian-level inspector who was good at the job like Su Han.

“Ok, I will do my best in the Dragon God Shrine’s examinations,” Hao Ren said.

Although Su Han looked cold, she tried to protect him wherever she could. Hao Ren remembered her kindness, and it was now time for him to shield her from troubles and liabilities.

“The general examinations of the Dragon God Shrine is not as easy as you might think…” Su Han smiled and said, shaking her head. However, she didn’t keep talking.

She didn’t think that Hao Ren could get a good placement with his strength, but she didn’t want to crush Hao Ren’s enthusiasm. In her opinion, Hao Ren’s current progress was already speedy and smooth.

“When does the examination start exactly?” Hao Ren asked.

“Technically, you have a month if you really plan to take the exams,” Su Han slowly looked up with her pretty eyes and said from the bedside.

“Ok!” Hao Ren gritted his teeth and nodded.

Su Han secretly sighed at how persistent Hao Ren was. The West Ocean Dragon Clan was determined to fight until death, and it was pulled all the forces together, becoming the key force in the fight against East Ocean.

It made the Dragon God Shrine nervous as well. And the Dragon God Shrine had to take some actions to calm the whole situation down. As Hao Ren’s boss, she would definitely have to go to Antarctica for a decade. She wouldn’t even be allowed to go back to the other continents during that time.

“You guys should head back if there’s nothing else,” Su Han looked at Hao Ren and Xie Yujia and said. Her tone was much softer than before. Maybe it was because of her mood, or it might have been due to Xie Yujia’s presence.

Hao Ren thought about the time and realized that they did spend quite a while in Su Han’s room. Therefore, he nodded and walked to the door. “Anyways, get better soon,” he said.

“Um.” Su Han nodded without showing any expression.

Xie Yujia didn’t say a word from the start to the end. She just felt like Su Han’s treatment of Hao Ren was somewhat special. After all, he completely ignored all other guys.

Hao Ren closed the door from the outside and led Xie Yujia out of the palace.

He didn’t care much about the inspector position. But since this involved Su Han, it was no longer an issue within the East Ocean Dragon Clan.

Xie Yujia followed Hao Ren to the front gate of the dragon palace deep in her own thoughts.

There were always some patrolling soldiers tailing them.

“Let Premier Xia know that I’ll pay him a visit some other day!” Hao Ren said to the general who was leading the patrolling soldiers. Then, he whipped out Little White and headed onto the land at a fast speed.

Premier Xia was the only one who had a personal friendship with Hao Ren in the entire dragon palace. Hao Ren decided not to bother him tonight since it was already midnight. However, if he had some questions about East Ocean that needed to be answered, Premier Xia would be the perfect person.

“Zhao Yanzi could start her cultivation again, and maybe the loss of her dragon core would no longer be a problem. I might just be an insignificant Fuma.” Hao Ren laughed at himself as he patted Little White’s neck with both hands.

Little White sped up immediately, dashing out of the ocean like a shooting star.

“What is going on? You never told me about it,” Xie Yujia opened her mouth and asked as she dragged onto Hao Ren’s shirt.

She was trying to suppress her curiosity and didn’t want to interfere with Hao Ren’s issues. However, she got more and more worried about Hao Ren after hearing all that.

“Nothing much. It’s just that Zhen Congming and I destroyed half of the West Ocean Dragon Palace a few days ago when I went out with him,” Hao Ren said.

“Ah?” Xie Yujia was surprised.

She had seen the East Ocean Dragon Palace; it was a giant city covering thousands of acres.

“How could Hao Ren tear down an equally large palace?” she thought.

Xie Yujia had always been a good kid except for the time she hung around Hao Ren when they were little.

However, she had never even burned down half a warehouse.

Boom! Little White, who sensed Hao Ren’s thoughts, lowered itself and kept flying above the ocean.

The ocean looked limitless under the moonlight.

Xie Yujia had never enjoyed a view like this before.

All of a sudden, she felt the ease of mind and treasured the beautiful scenery.

The waves reflected the silver light of the moon as they moved in order, similar to the scales of a fish.

The moon was bright in the sky, illuminating the ocean, and Hao Ren and Xie Yujia cherished their time together at this moment.

Flying closely above the ocean was even better than standing on the deck of a ship. They could thoroughly enjoy the vast and peaceful scenery quietly.

Xie Yujia secretly looked at Hao Ren’s face from the side.

It was a calm yet determined face which was 70% similar to her Little Older Brother’s naughty face. However, they had completely different expressions.

At the moment, Hao Ren’s lips pouted slightly as if he was trying to make up his mind. His eyes which looked into the distance showed that he was buried in his own thoughts.

She slightly leaned onto Hao Ren’s back and could hear his forceful heartbeat through his shirt.

Xie Yujia didn’t know if she was falling too hard for Hao Ren, but she discovered a lot of Hao Ren’s hidden talents and strength.

Hao Ren seemed to be very gentle, but he was very firm with his decisions. He didn’t want to bother anyone even if he had a lot on his mind. However, he would definitely share good things with everyone around him.

Being with Hao Ren gave Xie Yujia a strong sense of security.

Boom!

Little White lowered itself for half a meter, and its paws almost touched the water.

The strong airflow created by the fast speed made a lot of waves in the ocean.

Giant fishes that were swimming near the surface got sucked out of the ocean, and they kept rolling up and down in the air.

There was an endless ocean all around them!

“Come on, Little White. Let’s head back!” Hao Ren shouted.

Roar!

Little White roared as it suddenly flew forward, dashing into the reflection of the moon in the ocean.

Shoo… Little White flew toward their destination at a fast speed.

The East Ocean City slowly appeared in front of Hao Ren and Xie Yujia.

They arrived at the Hongji Square in just a moment, and Little White turned into its cute white puppy form.

After putting Little White back into the necklace, Hao Ren and Xie Yujia returned to the KTV room. They looked at the time and realized that it had only been half an hour!

Ma Lina was still singing, and the guys were cuddling up on the couch, sleeping.

“You are back?” Ma Lina put down the microphone as Xie Yujia and Hao Ren came in. She was a little bored already since she had just sung six songs.

She thought they only took a walk around the Hongji Square, but she could never imagine that they went to the East Ocean Dragon Palace and flew above the sea.

“Um, it’s a bit chilly, so we came back sooner,” Xie Yujia smiled as she sat beside Ma Lina.

If it weren’t for Hao Ren’s command to Little White, she actually wished that she could keep wandering over the ocean with Hao Ren until sunrise. It would have been nice to enjoy the spectacular sunrise over the endless sea.

“Sing a few songs, Yujia. Let me take a break,” Ma Lina grabbed her drink and chugged.

Xie Yujia was a little shy, but she sang a few songs lightly since the guys were all sleeping. Her voice was a lot better than Ma Lina’s, and the gentle voice put Huang Jianfeng and the other guys in a deeper sleep.

Before they realized, it was already six o’clock in the morning.

Both Hao Ren and Xie Yujia used their cultivation techniques to get rid of their sleepiness, so they seemed very energetic.

Zhou Liren sat up from Cao Ronghua’s body as he yawned. “Sh*t! You two didn’t sleep at all?”

That simple comment came out of his mouth with a weird hidden message.

Xie Yujia blushed as she circulated nature essence according to the Qi Refinement Technique. She pulled Ma Lina up, who was almost asleep, and said, “Hao Ren, we will be heading back now.”

“Um,” Hao Ren looked at her with his bright eyes and said, “Have something to eat before you go to class.”

Xie Yujia blushed again and nodded before dragging Ma Lina out of the room.

“I didn’t know that our former class president could be so cute. Our Brother Ren finally conquered her.” Zhou Liren raised his eyebrows at Hao Ren.

“Wipe your mouth and go to class. I still have something to do.” Hao Ren threw a pack of napkins at him and headed out in a rush.

LingZhao Middle School and LingZhao Elementary School were across the street from each other. Since there was only one hour before school started, Hao Ren wanted to meet up with Zhao Yanzi. In the meantime, he wanted to see if Zhen Congming was bullying everyone including his teachers in the modern school.
