Dragon King's Son-In-Law

Panda Novel

It was already evening when Hao Ren, Xie Yujia, and Zhen Congming returned to the house.

The house was lively since Lu Linlin and Lu Lili were visiting. Their long ponytails swung behind them as they hopped around the living room like two butterflies, carrying around plates and tidying up the table. They appeared to be energetic and virtuous.

Grandma watched them walking around happily, and she immediately called out when she saw Hao Ren come in, “Ren, how come you were out all day again!”

“Grandma, we went to the beach again…” Zhen Congming ran over to her.

He looked like the talking version of Little White, and Hao Ren couldn’t even stand his peevish look.

However, it worked on Grandma perfectly.

She smiled and said, “Ok, ok, ok, as long as you had fun!”

Grandma would have been bored to death if Lu Linlin and Lu Lili didn’t come to see her today. Zhao Zhonghua and Yue Yang were home for the weekend, but they were not nearly as talkative as the twins. They would only watch some TV with her and then go work on their science projects.

However, the twins would chat with her and tell her jokes. They even gave her a massage, which made her so comfortable that she couldn’t even describe it.

She really wanted to make them her granddaughters if they wished.

At the moment, she already had many ‘grandsons and granddaughters’ even though Hao Ren was her only actual grandson. This was the kind of happiness a senior woman like her hoped for.

“We are staying over tonight, Gongzi!” Lu Linlin and Lu Lili hopped in front of Hao Ren and said cheerfully.

Hao Ren couldn’t say anything since Grandma, the boss, arranged for them to sleep over.

“It seems like Gongzi has improved again,” Lu Linlin happily whispered.

Lu Lili looked at Hao Ren happily as well with her crescent-moon-like eyes.

“We will come to Gongzi’s room to test your elemental essences!” Lu Lili continued as warm air came out of her mouth.

Hao Ren looked at them and was at a loss for words; he knew that they would cause little troubles for him when they came over.

“Time for dinner! Time for dinner!” Yue Yang said from beside the table as she couldn’t stand seeing Lu Linlin and Lu Lili hang onto Hao Ren.

She didn’t find them annoying; she was just a bit worried since there were quite a few girls around Hao Ren.

It was a lovely dinner.

Little White crouched beside the table with a full bowl of meat in front of it, and it had quite a large meal as well.

Little White had lost its ambition as a snow lion a long time ago since it had been living in a peaceful environment like this. It rubbed its own belly as it rolled on the floor with a full stomach.

It looked especially cute with its four golden paws. Yue Yang couldn’t help but offer it two more bowls of pork even though she wasn’t really a pet person.

“I’m heading out again, Mom,” Hao Ren said; he was still worried about Zhao Yanzi since he now had a Foundation Establishment Pill.

“How come you are always heading out!” Yue Yang complained as she washed the dishes. Xie Yujia only smiled from beside her.

“We are coming with you, Gongzi!” Lu Linlin and Lu Lili quickly followed Hao Ren out.

In the meantime, Grandma shook her head and laughed, grabbing Zhen Congming into her arms.

Hao Ren dashed to the East Ocean Dragon Palace at high speed on his sword energy with the red energy sphere around him, and Lu Linlin and Lu Lili followed him like two little sidekicks.

Zhao Yanzi was hungrily waiting in her little palace, and she quickly opened the door when she heard someone walking over.

But to her disappointment, Hao Ren didn’t come with a bag full of snacks this time; he came empty-handed.

“Zi!” Lu Linlin and Lu Lili waved at Zhao Yanzi from outside the palace.

“Sister Linlin, Sister Lili…” Zhao Yanzi smiled and waved at them.

Zhao Yanzi didn’t hold any hostility against the twins because they were very close with Elder Lu. Also, they were curious about the world like little kids, and she felt like they didn’t always stick around Hao Ren.

Xie Yujia made her more hostile in comparison.

Zhao Yanzi said to Premier Xia who was standing by the door in a cute tone, “Premier Xia…”

Her voice was quiet and sweet. Premier Xia looked around and didn’t see anyone, so he waved at the Lu Sisters, telling them to go inside.

Lu Linlin and Lu Lili were very clever. They quickly hopped into the little palace and went into Zhao Yanzi’s room.

Premier Xia visited Lu Linlin and Lu Lili a lot when they were locked up in the Ice Palace, so they had always remembered his kindness now that they were released. Therefore, there was a relationship between the three of them.

“Un-hem!” Premier Xia dry coughed as he stood at the door to guard for them.

Zhao Yanzi was happy. She had no idea that Hao Ren would bring two more people to spend time with her.

“You finished all the snacks?” Hao Ren asked in surprise when he noticed her empty bed.

“So what? So what?” Zhao Yanzi made faces at him with her head up.

“Nothing…” Hao Ren backed off two steps and took an elixir from his necklace, “Here, this is for you!”

“What is it?” She squinted as she looked at the elixir in his hand.

“This is a level 6 Foundation Establishment Pill!” Lu Linlin said in surprise.

Zhao Yanzi didn’t recognize it, but the twins had seen a lot of things, so they immediately identified the level and function of the elixir pill.

They had even seen many level 9 golden pills, but this was First Heaven where the nature essence was very thin. A level 4 elixir pill was already extremely precious since this area was ruled by the dragon cultivators who wasn’t good at making elixirs.

Most of the elixir pills in the East Ocean Dragon Palace were of level 3, and the better ones were level 3.

Only level 4 elixir master could make level elixir pills, but there were barely any level 4 elixir masters on First Heaven.

Zhen Congming wasn’t a part of the Dragon Tribe and rarely helped out with making elixirs. Therefore, the elixir master everyone knew about was the level 3 elixir master from the West Ocean Dragon Clan.

Just because of this level 3 elixir master, the West Ocean Dragon Clan had tons of elixirs, and their quality was better than that of any other ocean dragon clans’.

On top of that, they had Mystic Ice as their local specialty. Therefore, their cultivation strength was a lot better than the other three ocean dragon clans’.

“Level 4?” Zhao Yanzi blinked in surprise.

She didn’t pay much attention to cultivating before, but she still knew about some things. Things like the level 4 Essence Replenishment Pills, Foundation Establishment Pills, and Detox Pills couldn’t be casually taken out and used by cultivators in East Ocean.

Even on Fifth Heaven, where every sect was making elixirs, it wasn’t easy to see level 3 and level 4 elixir pills. Therefore, the three small sects near Ethereal Summit got extremely excited when they got ten level 3 Foundation Establishment Pills.

“Ya, level 4. Xie Yujia made some today, and this one is for you,” Hao Ren said.

“Oh…she made it,” Zhao Yanzi looked cold all of a sudden.

“She spent four hours on this and specifically made one for you, and this is your attitude?” Hao Ren looked at her, dissatisfied.

Zhao Yanzi snorted at Hao Ren’s light scolding.

She really wanted to put the elixir pill back in Hao Ren’s hand, but she didn’t do it after some consideration.

She was on level 10 of the Qi Refinement Realm and only one step away from the Foundation Establishment Realm.

However, all the Foundation Establishment Pills stored in the East Ocean Dragon Palace were level 2, which could only reinforce her realm instead of assisting her in breaking through the current realm. This level 4 Foundation Establishment Pill could definitely…

“Xie Yujia said that you need one of these Foundation Establishment Pills now that you are on level 10 of the Qi Refinement Realm,” Hao Ren continued.

Zhao Yanzi’s mouth twitched a bit in disbelief, but her heart softened a little.

“How come she is so kind…” Zhao Yanzi thought to herself.

“Please take the elixir pill while we are here, Little Zhumu,” Lu Lili said from beside her.

Zhao Yanzi looked at them and thought for a bit. Then, she put the grey pill in her mouth.

She knew that Lu Linlin and Lu Lili were both high-leveled cultivators like Su Han, and it would be safer to break through while they were there.

Thick nature essence came out of her mouth and nostrils immediately.

As for Foundation Establishment Pills, level 2 was the worst; level 3 was somewhat average, and level 4 was the best.

Out of the three tiers, level 3 Foundation Establishment Pills could assist peak Qi Refinement Realm cultivators to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm. However, the chance of failure was high.

Level 4 Foundation Establishment Pills could boost the chance of succeeding on a large scale, but level 4 Foundation Establishment Pills weren’t normally used for a low-level disciple in breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Zhao Yanzi could use a level 4 Foundation Establishment Pill in assisting her breakthrough. This was the kind of opportunity only important elders’ kids and grandkids on Sixth Heaven had.

Therefore, it was ridiculously luxurious for Xie Yujia to consume a level 4 Foundation Establishment Pill a day to improve her strength.

A strong aroma suddenly filled the room. The nature essence in the pill entered Zhao Yanzi’s body.

Zhao Yanzi didn’t want to underestimate an elixir pill like this. She sat beside the bed and started to circulate the Qi Refinement Scroll.

“It would usually take at least 24 hours to digest this pill completely, and it is not a guaranteed success,” Lu Linlin said.

“Not a guaranteed success?” Hao Ren got nervous.

Zhao Yanzi gritted her teeth; it seemed like she was breaking through a threshold.

“But if you let the Foundation Establishment Pill lead the way and keep adding nature essence to it, then there shouldn’t be any problems,” Lu Linlin continued.

“So, what should I do?” Zhao Yanzi finally said from the bed.

No matter what, she really wanted to reach the Foundation Establishment Realm. She turned from a Zhen-level cultivator to an ordinary human who couldn’t use any of nature essence.

Hao Ren wouldn’t be able to understand her feelings.

“Gongzi could smooth Little Zhumu’s essence,” Lu Linlin laughed.

“Can’t you two do it?” Hao Ren asked immediately.

“We have different cultivation methods than Little Zhumu and Gongzi. Otherwise, we could have helped you level-up a long time ago,” Lu Linlin said.

Lu Lili kept nodding as she stood beside her.

All they could do was test the elemental essence breakdown in Hao Ren’s body and offering him some cultivation suggestions.

“Gongzi cultivates all five elemental essences at the same time, and it could provide the most stable nature essence. Plus, Gongzi is two realms ahead of the Little Zhumu. So, you are the most suitable person to assist her in breaking through.

“Alright, let me do it then,” Hao Ren stepped forward and reached his hand out to Zhao Yanzi.

“Gongzi…you have to put your palm on Little Zhumu’s back for the nature essence to enter,” Lu Lili backed two steps up and said nervously.

“What? He has to touch my back?” Zhao Yanzi almost hopped off the bed.

“Not only that… there shouldn’t be clothes between you two,” Lu Linlin added.

“Why didn’t you… say so earlier!” Zhao Yanzi rolled her eyes in regret. There was only one Foundation Establishment Pill, and she did not want to beg Xie Yujia for another one.

“My sister has a very phlegmatic temperament, and you took the pill before she could finish,” Lu Linlin said.

In fact, Zhao Yanzi only needed to find herself a water-elemental dragon in the dragon palace to help her break through the Foundation Establishment Realm.

However, now…”Can I… keep my… undergarments on?” she turned slightly to ask Lu Linlin.

She really wanted to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm once and for all before the power of the pill wore out.

“It won’t be as good, but it should work too,” Lu Linlin answered.

“Eh Hem…” Hao Ren cleared his throat and didn’t say anything.

“Hmph!” Zhao Yanzi gritted her teeth. She asked Lu Linlin and Lu Lili to pull up the two edges of the blanket. She shouted to Hao Ren after some rustling sounds made by her clothes underneath the blanket, “Hurry up!”

Hao Ren turned and saw Zhao Yanzi under the blanket with only an undergarment on. She had her back toward Hao Ren, and she had untied her ponytail; her black hair covered part of her neck.

However, her shoulders, her back, her waist below that undergarment, as well as half her arms underneath the blanket were all right in front of Hao Ren.

Her smooth skin was in a light pinkish color.

She was trying all she could to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm. In addition, since Lu Linlin and Lu Lili were there too, she wasn’t scared of any ill intentions Hao Ren might have.

The nature essence in her body was dashing everywhere, and she couldn’t keep it under control perfectly with her semi-serious cultivation ability.

Her body type was excellent, and she was a natural water-element cultivator. As soon as she got rid of the dragon core, she became the so-called ‘Pure Water Body Type’. Therefore, she could get to level 10 of the Qi Refinement Realm in such a short period of time.

However, that was also precisely why her realm wasn’t steady. A level 10 Qi Refinement Realm cultivator on and above Fifth Heaven would need to prepare for half a year to a year to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm.

The undergarment wasn’t very thick, so Zhao Yanzi’s smooth back could be slightly seen.

Hao Ren took a deep breath, stepped forward a couple of steps, and put his palms on her shoulder blades.

It was smooth…

“Whatever, I don’t mind you touching me!” Zhao Yanzi shouted before she added, “Weird Uncle!”

Premier Xia was stupefied for a few seconds as he stood outside and heard the word ‘touch’. He wondered what it meant. Then, he assured himself that there shouldn’t be anything wrong since the Lu sisters were inside as well.

According to the rules, before the marriage, the Fuma was absolutely forbidden to touch the princess.

Hao Ren blushed at Zhao Yanzi’s comment. He was a typical otaku, and he wasn’t bold enough to try anything sneaky. He had been bluffing in front of the guys, but when it happened to him, he still got extremely nervous.

Middle-schoolers like Zhao Yanzi were becoming more and more open. Hao Ren, as the ‘uncle’, was obviously not her opponent.

“Um… Gongzi… don’t get distracted,” Lu Lili reminded him.

“Hurry up! I’m so cold!” Zhao Yanzi urged him again.

Hao Ren concentrated again. With his hands on her shoulders, he poured a generous amount of water elemental nature essence into her meridian through his wrist.

It was just like how Su Han poured nature essence into Hao Ren’s body through his wrist so that he could paint with his sword energies.

The Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll could absorb, convert, as well as transfer nature essence.

Hao Ren cultivated all five elemental essences at the same time, and his foundation was very steady. He was the perfect nature essence transferring device. The pouring out of the water-elemental essence didn’t affect him at all, and the nature essence that was transferred out of his body behaved like sword energies which could still be controlled by him.

The nature essence in Zhao Yanzi’s body was very chaotic, and the water-elemental essence from Hao Ren immediately tidied up the spattered nature essence. The flexible sword energy could easily swim around in her meridian since she wasn’t fighting against it at all.

Zhao Yanzi slowly calmed down her heavy breathing and started to circulate her technique along with Hao Ren’s sword energy’s guidance.

This comfortable feeling made her relax.

As if his sword energy saw through her body completely, she felt it all over her body…

“This is just like…” she thought.

“You shouldn’t get distracted either, Little Zhumu!” Lu Lili reminded Zhao Yanzi.

Zhao Yanzi really liked to be called ‘Little Zhumu’, but she had no idea that the twins called Xie Yujia ‘Big Zhumu’.

The nature essence from the Foundation Establishment Pill traveled through Zhao Yanzi’s meridian along with Hao Ren’s sword energy. Then, it started to spread.

All her meridians had been unblocked as she was at level 10 of the Qi Refinement Realm. To get to the Foundation Establishment Realm, she would have to obtain a ‘Daoist Heart’.

She revolved the nature essence of her Qi Refinement Scroll along with Hao Ren’s water elemental essence around and around.

Ren Meridian, Du Meridian, Chong Meridian, Dai Meridian, Yinqiao Meridian, Yangqiao Meridian, Yinwei Meridian, Yangwei Meridian… The power of the Foundation Establishment Pill swam through all these meridians.

Both the Spirit Concentration Scroll and the Qi Refinement Scroll were basic techniques, and the ways of cultivation were a little bit similar. Hao Ren had comprehended the Qi Refinement Scroll in the Daoist Temple on the summit of GreenStone Mountain, and the old Grandma injected the Qi Refinement Scroll into his mind when helping him breaking through to Kan-level.

Therefore, he was familiar with the steps of cultivating this technique. There was no obstacle in helping Zhao Yanzi with his nature essence whatsoever.

Hao Ren’s palms were getting sweaty, and Zhao Yanzi’s back was getting warm.

Boom… All the nature essence dashed toward Zhao Yanzi’s head.

The gathered nature essence was smashed into pieces all of a sudden.

Her entire body softened, and she almost couldn’t sit straight. Hao Ren reached out his hand to help her lean into his arm.

All the nature essence in the surroundings poured toward her body, but there wasn’t nearly as much as the amount her body needed…

The nature essence of the Foundation Establishment Pill came into work at this moment and made up for the gap. It formed a stream of warmth and gathered near Zhao Yanzi’s dantian.

There was no making without breaking. To build up the foundation, she needed to give up all her nature essence and generate new nature essence.

If she held on to the nature essence she accumulated while she was in the Qi Refinement Realm, she wouldn’t be able to peek through the Heavenly Dao and obtain a Daoist Heart.

Now, she had given up her status as a mortal and finally stepped into the gate of the world of cultivation.

The difficult part of Foundation Establishment was to let go first and regain second. One needed to use up all the nature essence he or she had and immediately regain new essence. It would have been a failure if one didn’t get to the second stage. The Foundation Establishment Pill stored a massive amount of nature essence to make up for the hollow period. In this way, the cultivator could obtain a ‘brand-new’ body.

Zhao Yanzi lied in Hao Ren’s arms softly, blushing.

“Oh, I thought you didn’t mind.” Hao Ren looked down at Zhao Yanzi and laughed.

“You…” she gritted and tried to hit Hao Ren with her hand. However, she didn’t have the strength to do it.

“Should I transfer her more nature essence?” Hao Ren asked the twins who were standing beside him.

“That’s not necessary, Gongzi. The Foundation Establishment Pill could offer Little Zhumu the purest nature essence, and all she needs to do now is to recover slowly,” Lu Lili answered.

“Oh, that’s good…” Hao Ren lifted Zhao Yanzi and put her on the wooden bed. Then, he put the blanket over her.

“This girl has a nice figure…” Hao Ren thought to himself after he quickly peeked at her body.

Zhao Yanzi noticed Hao Ren’s surprised look, but she still hadn’t gained the strength to fight back. She couldn’t even roll her eyes at him.

Her face was blushing due to the frustration, though it seemed like she was acting shy.

“Fuma Hao, it’s time for the nighttime snack,” Premier Xia shouted from outside.

Hao Ren knew it was his cue, so he waved at Lu Linlin and Lu Lili and walked out of there with them.

“Rest well tonight so that you can strengthen your realm tomorrow morning when you wake up,” Hao Ren said to Zhao Yanzi as he closed the door for her.

“Bad guy, bad guy, bad guy…” Zhao Yanzi cursed at him a hundred times in her heart even though she couldn’t make a sound.

“Come on, let’s go back.” Hao Ren led the twins out of the little palace. Although he was still worried about Zhao Yanzi, he had to abide by the rules of the dragon palace.

“After the success of Foundation Establishment, Zhao Yanzi will be lively like a bunny all over again tomorrow. Now that she is more powerful, who knows how much harder it would be to deal with her…” Hao Ren slightly sighed.

“The good thing is that I am already at the Core Formation Realm, so I won’t be bullied by this future little wifey,” Hao Ren realized the importance of improving his strength at the thought of this.

“If she catches up, it would be hard to say who is going to be more powerful in the future… Um… um… Her skin is so soft…”

Splash… Hao Ren spread open the water and left the East Ocean Dragon Palace with the twins under Premier Xia’s gaze.
