Dragon King's Son-In-Law

After coming out of Su Han’s room, Hao Ren returned to the gate of the palace, and Premier Xia was waiting for him patiently.

“Gongzi Hao, are you heading back now?” Premier Xia walked over and asked.

“No. I need to see another person.” Hao Ren shook his head.

“Who?” Premier Xia asked carefully.

Now that Hao Ren was not only the Fuma but also the Commanding General who controlled close to 1,000,000 soldiers, Premier Xia was subconsciously more cautious with his words.

“Zeng Yitao,” Hao Ren said.

Premier Xia froze, and he nodded immediately. “I’ll show you the way.”

Since Hao Ren was the Commanding General who controlled the military, Premier Xia couldn’t refuse his request to visit a captive.

The night in the dragon palace was so quiet that the only sounds were their footsteps.

Premier Xia led Hao Ren into the Ice Palace where Lu Linlin and Lu Lili were once imprisoned.

“Let me out! My grandpa will destroy East Ocean with great troops!”

Hearing their footsteps, Zeng Yitao immediately yelled.

Premier Xia led Hao Ren around several huge ice blocks and walked to the depth of the palace.

Thin and pale-faced, Zeng Yitao was prisoned in an iron cage. At his feet were some simple dishes which he had kicked aside.

At the sight of Hao Ren, he yelled louder. “How dare you come here! You are all going to die! Within three days, my grandpa will graze you to the ground with the troop of West Ocean!”

Hao Ren looked at him with a smile.

Zeng Yitao was the frog that was living in the well.

Imprisoned in the Ice Palace, Zeng Yitao knew nothing about the situation outside, oblivious to the fact that the West Ocean Dragon Clan had been defeated and that the West Ocean Dragon Palace had been razed to the ground!

“How dare you treat me like this? You have breached the alliance of the four oceans! The other three dragon palaces will deal with you together with full force!” At Hao Ren’s silence, Zeng Yitao shook the cage and threatened more viciously.

As a dignified crown prince of the West Ocean Dragon Clan, Zeng Yitao couldn’t bear the disgrace of being a prisoner in the East Ocean Dragon Clan!

He was planning to bring the most powerful elders of West Ocean to destroy the East Ocean Dragon Palace once he returned.

He didn’t know that the powers of the West Ocean Dragon Clan and the East Ocean Dragon Clan had switched places.

Otherwise, after Hao Ren destroyed half of the West Ocean Dragon Palace, Oldman Zeng would have brought his troops directly to the East Ocean Dragon Palace instead of forming an alliance with the other two ocean dragon clans to suppress the East Ocean Dragon Clan!

“Speak! Why don’t you speak? Are you afraid?! Hahahaha!” Zeng Yitao yelled even louder at Hao Ren’s silence.

“Let’s go,” Hao Ren turned to Premier Xia and said.

“As you wish.” Premier Xia turned and led Hao Ren toward the gate.

“Are you afraid to talk to me? I tell you, when I get out, I’ll deal with you!” Zeng Yitao shook his cage and shouted at Hao Ren.

After walking out of the Ice Palace calmly, Hao Ren suddenly asked Premier Xia, “As the Commanding General, I can deal with and treat the prisoners, right?”

“Of course, you have the power to do so,” Premier Xia answered immediately.

“Then, release him tomorrow,” Hao Ren said.

Premier Xia’s hunched back straightened a little as he looked up at Hao Ren. “Are you afraid that South Ocean and North Ocean will deal with us? Or do you think the West Ocean Dragon Clan will launch another attack?”

“Neither.” Hao Ren shook his head.

“Then, you mean…” Premier Xia looked confused.

“After we release Zeng Yitao, East Ocean will be safe for the next few hundred years,” Hao Ren said.

Premier Xia’s confusion on his wrinkled face gradually cleared.

Last night before the battle, Zhao Haoran had instructed Premier Xia to hold Zeng Yitao if East Ocean was defeated and release him if East Ocean won.

Premier Xia didn’t understand at first, and Zhao Haoran explained to him, “This kid has no talents, no virtues, no ambitions, and no strategies; he is a blessing for East Ocean.”

Currently, Hao Ren’s words showed the same perception.

Zhao Haoran prisoned Zeng Yitao and observed his behavior, and thus knew that this kid was useless.

Oldman Zeng had used a secret method to suppress his realm, so he wouldn’t activate the Heavenly Tribulation and could continue to control the West Ocean Dragon Clan!

It meant that the moment Zeng Yitao took the helm of the West Ocean Dragon Clan, the force would enter a true decline.

That was why the East Ocean Dragon Clan must keep Zeng Yitao if they were defeated and must release him if they got the victory.

While the power of the West Ocean Dragon Clan decreased recently, Zhao Haoran took the opportunity to destroy most of their powerful elders with brute force. Now, the West Ocean Dragon Clan couldn’t launch a head-on battle against the East Ocean Dragon Clan in the next 200 years. Then after 200 years, Zeng Xin would reach the end of his life, and Zeng Yitao would take over…

This was Zhao Haoran’s last move on the chessboard before the end of his life.

“What’s wrong?” Seeing Premier Xia standing there like a statue, Hao Ren asked.

“Gongzi Hao, are you heading back now?” Premier Xia asked with a smile.

“Well, yeah.”

“I’ll show you the way.” Premier Xia walked forward with lightened steps.

“Although this Fuma only started as a mortal, his mind and vision are close to those of the old dragon king. On the surface, it looks like the old dragon king doesn’t like this Fuma. However, he is in fact quite appreciative of him.”

Now, Premier Xia began to understand why Zhao Haoran placed Hao Ren in the position of the Commanding General.

Although Hao Ren had no battle experience, his mind far surpassed those of the generals in the dragon palace!

After all, Zhao Haoran had ruled the East Ocean Dragon Tribe for 1,000 years, and his eyes were really sharp!

“Premier Xia, you said that if the old dragon king could teach me personally, I can reach Dui-level quickly, right?” Hao Ren asked Premier Xia suddenly.

“The cultivation strength of the old dragon king has reached a godly realm. Last night when we were battling with the forces of West Ocean at the main gate, the old dragon king personally battled with Zeng Xin who is also at top-tier Qian-level. Zeng Xin was severely wounded by our old dragon king with only half a strike,” Premier Xia said.

Hao Ren thought that the battle must have been thrilling. With two top-tier Qian-level cultivators battling with full forces, the battle must have been earth-shaking!

Half of an attack from Zhao Haoran was enough to force back Zeng Xin! If Zeng Xin had forced himself to continue the battle, he would have died on the spot! That was why he would rather retreat.

It was regretful that a master like Zhao Haoran still couldn’t break the limit on his age… If he put his 1,000 years of cultivation strength into hundreds of Gen-level cultivators, it would help them all break through to Dui-level instantly!
