Chapter 449 Su Han, Telepathy
ack on what I used to say to you about flowers, I feel pretty foolish,” Xie Yujia bit her lip with her pearly white teeth and puckered her lips; then she suddenly faced Hao Ren, holding her book again...Chapter 449: Su Han, Telepathic Connection
Yueyang dropped off Wu Luoxue at the youth palace and then returned. Both families chatted for a while before HAO Zhonghua treated them to dinner.
To thank Zhao Hongyu for inviting them for tea, HAO Zhonghua specially chose an upscale restaurant. Dragon Boat Festival is a traditional holiday and a statutory public holiday; originally such restaurants would be fully booked on this day, but upon seeing that it was HAO Zhonghua bringing friends to dine here, the manager urgently managed to secure a private room for them.
To the restaurant, internationally renowned figures like HAO Zhonghua and Yueyang coming to eat there is undoubtedly great publicity. The boss of the restaurant came over to take photos with HAO Zhonghua and even offered to waive their bill, which was politely declined by HAO Zhonghua.
The elegant environment inside the restaurant, coupled with soothing music, made this dinner very pleasant indeed.
On such a holiday, it's important to make elders happy. With both families dining together and the children that Grandmother likes all present, it felt like a family reunion, making Grandma the happiest person there.
The night deepened as a drizzle finally ceased. The HAO Ren family and Zhao Yanzi's family were about to part ways.
"Hongyu, remember to come visit Auntie when you're free!" Grandmother held onto Zhao Hongyu's wrist, reluctant to let go.
"Sure, I will. Take care of yourself too, Auntie." Zhao Hongyu readily agreed and then turned to Yueyang, "When you have time, we can meet for tea and do some shopping."
"Alright," Yueyang smiled in agreement.
She was previously busy with work and didn't often stay in Donghai City, thus she had no close female friends. Zhao Hongyu's appearance filled this gap perfectly.
Both of them were strong women in their respective careers while also tending to their families. Added to that is the development trajectory of HAO Ren and Zhao Yanzi; they have plenty in common.
Hence, on matters concerning HAO Ren, even though Chairman HAO Zhonghua leans towards Xie Yujia, Yueyang remains steadfastly supportive of Zhao Yanzi.
"Mom! Tonight I want to stay at HAO Ren's place!" Zhao Yanzi seized the opportunity to shout out.
"You have class tomorrow!" Zhao Hongyu frowned.
"It's fine. If she stays with us, I'll take A Zi to school tomorrow." Yueyang patted Zhao Yanzi's head and said happily.
Seeing Yueyang agree like this, Zhao Hongyu couldn't argue further and could only look at Zhao Yanzi, "Be good in A Ren's house, okay"
"Okay!" Zhao Yanzi appeared very lively.
Grandmother pulled Zhao Yanzi into her arms, laughing heartily. How would she have thought that she had unknowingly become the mother-in-law of Donghai Dragon King
Hao Zhonghua's car can only seat five people, so Zhao Yanzǐ, Zhen Cōngmíng, Grandma, and Yuè Yáng rode in Hao Zhonghua’s car. On the other hand, Hao Ren and the Lù sisters along with Xiè Yǔjiā could only take a taxi back.
In the taxi, Hao Ren took out the Inspector’s token and observed it carefully. This token was made of special materials and, compared to his own token from General Dàjūn which simply served as proof of identity, this one had some unique formations similar in function to magical treasures.
On the left shoulder of Xiè Yǔjiā, who was sitting in the passenger seat of the taxi, there was a cyan-colored seal. This kind of thing Hao Ren had never seen when he used to practice cultivation before.
After experiencing the Dragon God Temple’s written examination, Hao Ren understood clearly that this mark represented someone under the special protection of a Great Cultivator who has entered Spirit Condensation Realm, and even the inspectors from the Dragon God Temple weren’t allowed to take action against such individuals. If there were any issues, they would need to report it directly to the Great Cultivators in question.
Hao Ren was now very clear as to why Qín Shǎoyáng, who acted so arrogantly, always treated Xiè Yǔjiā with caution while Zeng Yítāo, who had a lower cultivation level than him, paid no attention to her at all. This was because such marks could only be seen by inspectors. According to the rules, among all dragon cultivators, only inspectors were permitted to act against ordinary people. Ordinary dragon cultivators couldn’t see these marks; this was done to avoid drawing too much attention.
Lù Línlin and Lù Líli sat on either side of Hao Ren. Their soft bodies leaned against him, emitting a faint fragrance.
"Hmm! Hmm!" Hao Ren deliberately coughed twice.
The Lù sisters exchanged glances and giggled before quickly sitting up straight and pressing themselves to the car door.
Ordinary boys would immediately back off if they tried to touch them, but when it came to Hao Ren, they couldn’t help but try to eat his "tofu" (figuratively speaking).
Hao Ren also lowered his head and chuckled before focusing his attention on the Inspector’s token again.
The token featured a straight golden dragon with three claws, representing a third-level inspector. Since it possessed some functions of magical treasures, Hao Ren couldn’t resist infusing spirit energy into it.
The token instantly connected to Hao Ren's mental consciousness; in his vast mind, he sensed another entity of the same nature located westward from him at some distance.
"Don't casually activate the token unless there’s an emergency," Su Hán's voice suddenly rang out in Hao Ren’s mind.
Hao Ren was startled and quickly withdrew his spirit energy.
It turned out that through this token, one could search for nearby inspectors and communicate with them mentally.
This means… he could keep in touch with Su Hán anytime and anywhere—whether eating, sleeping, or playing games. However, considering Su Hán’s stern warning, Hao Ren immediately dismissed the idea. Although his relationship with her had been improving lately, constantly interrupting her cultivation would most likely result in him being chopped into pieces by her.
Hao Ren placed the token on his waist; as spirit energy flowed through it, the token automatically merged into his body. The tokens from the Dragon God Temple were indeed extraordinary and could even function like a life-bound treasure. Such tokens wouldn’t easily fall off.
However… won't my whereabouts be exposed then Hao Ren suddenly thought.
The ability to search for nearby inspectors via the token implied that as the central control point, the Dragon God Temple should also be able to track each inspector's specific location through their tokens.
"I’ll stay in the gourd space." Hao Ren murmured to himself as he summoned the token from his palm and put it into his necklace.
The gourd space has an effect of isolating spirit energy; he really didn’t want Dragon Temple to know about his trip to the Fifth and Sixth Heavens.
In the Dragon Temple, behind a screen made up of complex formations, four colors—white, silver, yellow, and gold—moved around. The small yellow dot representing a Level 3 Inspector in Donghai City suddenly disappeared.
The Level 2 Inspector responsible for observing the screen immediately stood up anxiously and hurriedly ran to an adjacent room. "To the Sixth Temple Lord, the Level 3 Inspector at Donghai City area, with number 1782, has suddenly vanished."
"Oh, that’s Hao Ren, isn’t it No need to worry about this." A lazy voice came from inside the room.
The disappearance of an inspector's light point usually meant that the corresponding inspector had been eliminated, which was a serious matter. If the light point kept flickering, it would mean that the inspector was sending out distress signals; Dragon Temple needed to notify nearby inspectors for assistance immediately.
Upon receiving the Sixth Temple Lord’s response, the Level 2 Inspector promptly returned and continued observing changes in the screen.
At this moment, Hao Ren had just arrived at his beachfront villa.
This trip to Dragon Temple left him extremely exhausted. He hadn’t rested well last night at Donghai Dragon Palace either; now returning home made him feel very relaxed instantly.
Zhao Yanzi and her grandmother were already back home. Zhao Yanzi had fallen asleep unusually early, resting in her grandmother's room.
Hao Ren returned to his own room, luxuriously showered with hot water, and then entered a state of sleep. Cultivation indeed could energize the mind, but after his battle at Dragon Temple, all Hao Ren wanted was a good night’s sleep.
"Young Master… Young Master…"
A gentle voice like sea breeze echoed outside Hao Ren’s door.
Opening his eyes drowsily, he saw shadows moving outside the door. He had specifically instructed them not to enter his room without permission, and it seemed they truly remembered that.
Hao Ren found this amusing; yawned, then ran over to open the door.
Outside, Lu L琳和陸莉莉穿著同樣款式的深藍色睡衣，謹慎地站在門口。
她們的睡衣印有星辰圖案，此刻被當作夜行服穿上了。
"Young Master, it's time to leave." They lowered their voices and spoke softly, afraid of waking up Hao Zhonghua and Yue Yang next door.
It seems there was a repetition in the HTML tag for Lu Linlin and Lu Lili's description. Here is the corrected version without any additional explanations or repetitions:
"Young Master… Young Master…"
A gentle voice like sea breeze echoed outside Hao Ren’s door.
Opening his eyes drowsily, he saw shadows moving outside the door. He had specifically instructed them not to enter his room without permission, and it seemed they truly remembered that.
Hao Ren found this amusing; yawned, then ran over to open the door.
Outside stood Lu L琳和陸莉莉穿著同樣款式的深藍色睡衣，謹慎地站在門口。
"Young Master, it's time to leave." They lowered their voices and spoke softly, afraid of waking up Hao Zhonghua and Yue Yang next door.
"Hmm..." Hao Ren rubbed his eyes, "Yujia, where are Ah Zi and Zhen Cunming"
"They're in the living room on the first floor. The Great Mistress has already informed Zhen Cunming of the situation, and he's willing to join us," Lu Lili said slyly with her head lowered.
Her expression and actions seemed to be trying hard not to let others know she was heading to the Sixth Heavens as a thief.
"Alright!" Hao Ren didn't intend to waste time; he put on his shoes, followed the Lu sisters, and tiptoed into the living room.
Zhao Yanzi, Xie Yujia, Zhen Cunming, and Xiao Bai were indeed already prepared and ready to go.
Zhao Yanzi was wearing dark-colored pajamas that seemed to be taken from Hao Ren's wardrobe. Xie Yujia wore a set of sportswear while Zhen Cunming had on purple body armor. Xiao Bai... still remained naked as ever.
From the looks, it was indeed Zhen Cunming who appeared most professional.
"Shh, let's leave quietly," Hao Ren put his finger to his lips and whispered.
He opened the back door of the villa on the first floor leading to a small courtyard at the rear.
Sensing they were about to do something big, Xiao Bai excitedly wanted to chirp, but Hao Ren covered its mouth with his hand.
Bang! Xiao Bai transformed into Snow Lion, and its fiery paws stood out particularly brightly in the dark night.
"Here's this for you!" Zhen Cunming casually tossed a set of armor over Xiao Bai’s back. Made from thin black bamboo, it perfectly covered Xiao Bai’s white body and masked its demonic aura.
Something casually thrown by someone as extraordinary as Zhen Cunming was undoubtedly an excellent magic treasure.
Zhen Cunming had his own flying magical tool; he didn’t need Xiao Bai. The Lu sisters' flight speed wasn't slow either, so they wouldn't be riding on Xiao Bai. Only Hao Ren and Xie Yujia, Zhao Yanzi would be relying on Xiao Bai.
Xiao Bai leaped into the air; its formerly imposing five-colored glow now resembled neon lights underfoot.
"Xiao Bai, hide your light!" Zhen Cunming instructed.
Whoosh... The colorful光芒隨即變成黑色的流光。
六人組加小白，朝著五層天的方向，悄無聲息地快速飛去。
