Dragon King's Son-In-Law

by Dragon King

  It was already humiliating enough not to be able to capture a small valley with tens of Core Formation Realm cultivators. If they called the cultivators on Fifth Heaven to help with attacking and not just for information, then they would destroy the reputation of Sky Mountain Sect.

  The longer it took to resolve the situation, the more sects on Sixth Heaven would know of this. Other would know that Sky Mountain Sect could only practice elixir making and raise spirit beast when its overall strength was terrible.

  “Hehehe, if you need my help, please say so.”

  A chubby elder who was wearing a green robe appeared by the mountains.

  Mo Lianshan and the other Core Formation Realm cultivators turned to look at this old man, and they all suddenly became pale.

  This old man was Hongyuan Master, a low-tier Nascent Soul Realm cultivator. He had come without invitation, watching as if it were a show.

  “Get the f*ck out of here!”

  An angry voice suddenly sounded from Sixth Heaven.

  When Hongyuan Master heard this voice, his smile disappeared from his face. His face twitched, and he stepped onto a blue dharma treasure and flew away.

  “I’m only in seclusion cultivation for 100 years, and Sky Mountain Sect has turned into such a joke! Tomorrow is when I end my seclusion. If Yao is harmed, then every single one of you doesn’t need to live!” The voice was thunderous; even Mo Lianshan and the other Core Formation Realm cultivators were shaking.

  The Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators couldn’t withstand the sound waves and were all covering their ears. Along with their flying swords, they all fell into the canyon.

  Although this happened, Mo Lianshan and the other Core Formation Realm cultivators were delighted and felt even more empowered.

  Their grand uncle-master was finally ending his seclusion cultivation. That meant he had reached peak Nascent Soul Realm!

  Other than those Soul Formation Realm cultivators whose powers were unmeasurable, the peak Nascent Soul Realm cultivators were indisputably the strongest!

  The voice from Sixth Heaven suddenly ceased.

  The great Nascent Soul Realm cultivators in these powerful sects would all follow their schedule strictly.

  If they publicly announced that they would be in seclusion for 200 years, then they would for sure cultivate in their cave abodes for 200 years. They would not ever come out earlier unless their sect was being destroyed.

  If they were in life-death seclusion cultivation to charge to top-tier Nascent Soul Realm, then they wouldn’t come out unless they achieved the realm.

  Among the Nascent Soul Realm cultivators, they said that it was unlucky to end seclusion cultivation early. However, once the expected date had been reached, then the Nascent Soul Realm cultivators’ friends and sects would come and celebrate on that date.

  The Nascent Soul Realm cultivators were almost on the level of immortals. Therefore, they paid attention to their reputation more than anything.

  Especially for the Grand Uncle-Master of Sky Mountain Sect. Since he enjoyed an excellent reputation, his celebration would be even greater. If he were to come out early, then other Nascent Soul Realm cultivators would think that Sky Mountain Sect was in big trouble. This sort of rumors was bad for Sky Mountain Sect.

  After the Grand Uncle-Master’s voice disappeared, the Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators who had fallen into the canyon all flew up on their flying swords with bruised faces.

  “Junior Brothers and Sisters. Charge with me!” Mo Lianshan waved his black sword and charged at the blue energy sphere.

  He had understood what the Grand Uncle-Master’s words meant. If they still couldn’t resolve the situation at Ethereal Summit, then the Grand Uncle-Master would show his wrath tomorrow!

  Although Nascent Soul Realm cultivators on Sixth Heaven usually didn’t show themselves on Fifth Heaven, it was very humiliating for thousands of cultivators of Sky Mountain Sect not to be able to conquer a small valley.

  The Grand Uncle-Master would personally show up here and take over. Then, no one would dare to utter a word.

  However, these Core Formation Realm cultivators knew that they better resolve the situation here before the Grand Uncle-Master came. Otherwise, they would be punished for being useless.

  Bam! Bam! Bam! Once they confirmed that their grand uncle-master was about to come out, these Core Formation Realm cultivators felt double the pressure but also were much more motivated; they used their dharma treasures and attacked with all their might against the blue energy sphere.

  Crack!

  They were able to break a small hole in the energy sphere, and Mo Lianshan led 39 Core Formation Realm cultivators and charged in.

  The remaining 40 Core Formation Realm cultivators stayed outside and waited just in case that something happened.

  When the three small sects that were covered by the blue energy sphere saw the 40 Core Formation Realm cultivators charging in with snow lions, they were all terrified.

  There were only two or three Core Formation Realm cultivators in each of the three small sects. If the 40 cultivators split into three groups, they would be able to destroy all three sects.

  Whoosh! Hundreds of fireballs came charging at the cultivators of Sky Mountain sect.

  “Scatter!” Mo Lianshan ordered as he used his black sword to hit one of the fireballs.

  All these Core Formation Realm cultivators had vast real-life battle experience, and they were able to dash through the fireballs instantly and surround the small energy sphere that was covering Ethereal Summit.

  Hao Ren didn’t expect that there would be 40 Core Formation Realm cultivators charging in so quickly. These Core Formation Realm cultivators had risked everything to come in, and the array formation was crackling.

  It was hard to say whether the interior energy sphere could withstand this if these Core Formation Realm cultivators all attacked at the same frequency at the same time.

  Xie Yujia and Zhao Yanzi were both seriously injured. If these enemies were to charge in, Hao Ren would not be able to stop them on his own.

  Hao Ren was a bit worried, so he injected an abundant amount of nature essence into the compass.

  Thick mist surrounded the valley, and these cultivators of Sky Mountain Sect couldn’t even see their fingers. Even though it was cold, fireballs were dashing at them non-stop.

  “Let’s attack together!” His peers heard Mo Lianshan’s voice.

  Boom! The 40 dharma treasures hit the energy sphere simultaneously.

  A loud explosion sounded in the valley, and the energy sphere almost collapsed.

  “Attack again!” Mo Lianshan commanded.

  Mo Lianshan had some array knowledge, so he knew that these double layered energy spheres could isolate enemies in an area, but the interior energy sphere was less sturdy. That was why if they attacked from all directions, they might be able to break the energy sphere.

  The 40 dharma treasures hit the energy sphere at the same time once again, and their snow lions took care of the fireballs that were flying at them.

  Hao Ren’s right hand that was pressed onto the compass was forced away.

  The array formation could multiply the nature essence that Hao Ren put into the compass by ten times. However, if the array formation were impacted, then he would receive a lot of damage as well.

  Suddenly, a soft hand was suddenly put on the back of Hao Ren’s hand.

  Hao Ren put his palm on the compass again, and a weak yet pure streak of nature essence was injected into to compass through Hao Ren’s hand.

  “Geng, Yin, White Tiger, Metal, Yin!” A soft voice sounded by Hao Ren’s ears.

  The compass pointed at the respective spots, and the small energy sphere outside the valley started to blow heavy wind.

  The fireballs that were flying at the enemies through the mist turned into golden lights. If one looked carefully, these golden lights were actually flying daggers!

  “Don’t be scared. It�
�s all just an illusion!” Mo Lianshan shouted.

  Just when he finished his sentence, a white light went through his arm and cut a hole in his flesh.

  “Ahhhhhhh…” all sorts of screeches sounded in the mist.

  “Junior Brother Liu, Junior Brother Song…” Mo Lianshan called out hastily.

  Another golden light dashed toward him, so Mo Lianshan rushed to use his black sword to block it. However, he heard a loud breaking noise. When he looked up, he saw that his black sword had been knocked away by half a meter!

  “Retreat! Retreat!” Mo Lianshan cried.

  This strange array formation was able to create actual metal daggers from nothing! It was as if there were hundreds of cultivators hiding in the mist and attacking them!

  However, there was too bunch mist! They could stay at their positions and attack in one direction, but they got lost once they moved around.

  The mist also seemed to block their voices. Mo Lianshan couldn’t hear his junior brothers and sisters’ shouts because the thick fog had almost stopped sound waves from moving.

  “Are we going to all die here?” Mo Lianshan felt slightly in despair.

  Inside the cave abode, Hao Ren slightly turned his head and saw Xie Yujia behind him.

  She looked pale but still forced a smile onto her face.

  “You’re really stupid. Zhen Congming gave you the array formation handbook, and it’s right beside the compass. You didn’t even read it,” she said.

  Hao Ren looked at her and smiled even though times were tough. If they couldn’t live through today, they would probably die there.

  Xie Yujia held the array formation handbook and read it carefully again. She used her soft hand to spin the compass, “Ding, Shen, Vermilion Bird, Water, Yang!”

  Outside the energy sphere, large water waves suddenly appeared. Mo Lianshan thought they were illusions, but the waves quickly washed him off his snow lion’s back!

  Inside the waves, there were fireballs that would explode when they were touched.

  “The people outside, listen carefully! Ethereal Summit isn’t a place that you can invade. If you leave quickly, I can spare your lives!”

  Just when the explosion dizzied Mo Lianshan, a crisp voice sounded from the valley.

  Hao Ren turned to look at Xie Yujia. He realized that her warning was actually quite impressive.

  Xie Yujia only smiled softly. Her face was pale, but her cheeks were a bit red. Although the enemies hit them hard, she still didn’t want to take their lives.

  Hao Ren’s random spinning of the compass had some effects. However, if he had followed the instructions on how to operate the compass that Zhen Congming left, these Core Formation Realm cultivators would be dead for sure!

  Under such urgent circumstances, it was necessary to force these Core Formation Realm cultivators away. Then, they would need to heal Xie Yujia and Zhao Yanzi’s injuries before dealing with Duan Yao!

  593 Bad Thief! 1.3 for 1 Chapter

  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 concu
bines.

  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.
