Bang!

A beam of golden light shot straight out from the tip of the spear!

Hao Ren didn't expect that a long spear could also emit sword qi. He wanted to retract it, but it was already too late!

The golden light burst through the decorative glass in the living room with a "boom" and rushed towards an exquisite porcelain on the shelf!

Su Han hurriedly reached out as her white jade long sword flew out and finally blocked this beam of golden light.

Seeing the ground covered in shattered glass, Hao Ren quickly put away his long spear. "Uh, didn't expect it to be so powerful. I'll pay for the cost of the glass."

Su Han rolled her eyes at Hao Ren and said, "I will have Lu Qing find someone to fix it." She then looked at the long spear in Hao Ren's hand. "An outstanding magical treasure, made from rare purple bamboo with properties neither metallic nor wooden, unbreakable. Where did you get it"

"It's Ceng Yitao's life-bound magical treasure that I took over," Hao Ren said.

Su Han was slightly surprised. She wasn't the most knowledgeable about the West Sea situation, but she knew that the Crown Prince of the West Sea, Ceng Yitao, was at least a Tremor-level cultivator. It seemed unlikely for Hao Ren to be able to steal his life-bound magical treasure.

Hao Ren retracted his spiritual energy and waved the long spear in his hand twice, feeling incredibly powerful. He then looked back and saw that Zhao Yanzi in the bedroom had not been woken by the shattering of the glass.

With just a casual display, he was able to emit such a sharp sword qi; if it weren't for the limitations on Five Elements spells and magical treasures' power inside the Nine Dragons Palace, Hao Ren might not have been able to match up against Ceng Yitao who possessed his life-bound magical treasure.

And with this golden spear that could be hidden in his body at any time, it would slide out automatically from his palm when facing an enemy, just thinking about it was very cool.

"Your martial arts are too poor. Find a chance to practice more," Su Han reached out and took the long spear from Hao Ren's hand順勢奪走郝仁手裡的這把長槍.

In Su Han's hands, the Coiling Dragon Golden Spear alternated between gold and silver in an unpredictable manner. It could be imagined that with such an offensive magical treasure, Su Han’s power would far exceed Ceng Yitao's usage of it by hundreds or even thousands of times!

Hao Ren went to the kitchen and took out a broom to sweep up the shattered glass on the ground. If not for Su Han throwing her life-bound magical treasure to intercept, that beam of golden light would have directly pierced through Su Han's apartment, leaving a large hole! At that time, sitting in the living room could see the scenery outside.

"True to his reputation as the West Sea Crown Prince, he actually possesses such materials," seeing Hao Ren sweep up the glass, Su Han tossed the heavy golden spear back to Hao Ren.

There was a hint of envy in her words. With her Dryn-level expert realm, the life-bound magical treasure she used was merely a long sword made from Heavenly Rank Divine Jade. Although the material was still quite good, it absolutely couldn't compare to purple bamboo.

Zeng Yitao, even at the Tremor level, already possesses his own life-bound treasure. The material used is the rare Purple Gold Bamboo found in the world, and it's a complete Purple Gold Bamboo that has been forged into a spear!

Hao Ren stored the spear back into his spatial pocket dimension just then, and he saw Little White sitting on the sofa with an expectant look at him.

That bastard is starting to take a tragic route

Seeing Little White's wet eyes and pitiful expression, Hao Ren took out a Qi-Replenishing Pill and threw it to her.

Little White happily jumped up and opened its mouth to catch the light red Qi-Replenishing Pill.

It swallowed the pill without tasting it. Maybe feeling refreshed all over, it rolled around on the sofa before lying down with a belly-up posture, looking extremely satisfied.

Little White, you’re losing your lion’s dignity more and more. Hao Ren walked over and patted its belly.

Little White yelped and jumped up, obediently lying down on Hao Ren's thigh to take a nap.

Su Han slowly walked towards her training room, sat down on the mat, and began practicing.

The night gradually passed, and when dawn arrived, Zhao Yanzi faintly opened her eyes. She found Hao Ren holding Little White, sitting in an armchair, both of them sleeping soundly.

Her body was still a bit weak, but the dizzy feeling had disappeared. Seeing the cup and pills beside the bed, Zhao Yanzi felt a little moved. It's hard to say if she was really touched or not.

Tweet! Tweet!

Discovering that Zhao Yanzi woke up, Little White, who previously had drooping ears and snoring sounds coming from its mouth, suddenly chirped happily.

In Hao Ren's arms, it leaped about, immediately waking Hao Ren up too.

"Hehe! Little White!" Zhao Yanzi opened her arms towards the little creature.

Little White pushed off from Hao Ren’s arms and flew towards Zhao Yanzi. This counter-force nearly made Hao Ren lose his balance with the chair behind him.

Damn it, Little White! You're so shameless when you see a pretty face! Hao Ren quickly took a stance to stabilize himself before walking over to Zhao Yanzi and touching her forehead.

Zhao Yanzi looked blankly at Hao Ren's palm approaching her forehead; her face flushed red instantly. Seeing that she was still rosy, Hao Ren thought she might still be feverish. He picked up the water and pills beside him and said, "Take two more."

"No!" Zhao Yanzi pouted.

Seeing Hǎo Rén's determined expression, Zhaoshanezǐ suddenly softened and obediently took the pills from Hǎo Rén’s hand. She then picked up a glass of water and swallowed two pills.

This reaction surprised Hǎo Rén.

"Satisfied now" Zhaoshanezǐ glared at Hǎo Rén, her fierce eyes indicating that she had indeed recovered today.

But even so, Hǎo Rén still wasn't satisfied. He took out the thermometer he had bought from the pharmacy yesterday and said, "Let's take your temperature."

Zhaoshanezǐ pouted but seeing the gentle yet resolute gaze in Hǎo Rén’s eyes, she finally unwillingly picked up the thermometer and put it in her mouth.

Hǎo Rén sat beside her, watching over her like a supervisor.

After several minutes, Zhaoshanezǐ took out the thermometer from her mouth and handed it to Hǎo Rén. The tip was still slightly wet with saliva, making her feel awkward but she couldn't wipe it off in time.

Hǎo Rén didn’t mind this; he carefully checked the reading on the thermometer, "Hmm, your temperature is still a bit high. Rest at Su Han’s place today."

"Who do you think you are" Zhaoshanezǐ finally couldn't hold back and said, "When did it become your job to look after me"

"Your parents aren’t around, so it's my responsibility. Oh right, I should say taking care of you," Hǎo Rén put away the thermometer, “Remember to take your temperature again at noon. If you still have a fever then, take more medicine."

Zhaoshanezǐ looked blankly at him, wanting to argue but lacking the energy. The coolness in her heart suddenly felt warm.

"Oh yeah, this is an oral medication that also needs to be taken," Hǎo Rén picked up a green packet of medicine and poured it into her glass of water.

"So annoying! Drink drink drink!" Seeing how meticulous Hǎo Rén was being, Zhaoshanezǐ didn’t argue anymore. She grabbed the cup and gulped down the water.

“Cough cough!” Suddenly, some water came out of her nose; she had drunk too quickly and choked.

Hǎo Rén rushed over to take the cup from her hand and patted her back gently. "Hey, are you okay"

Zhaoshanezǐ wiped the water off her mouth with the palm of her hand and looked at Hǎo Rén in a peculiar manner. Suddenly, she lightly bit his neck.

The moist sensation was more like a kiss than a bite.

Holding the cup, Hǎo Rén stared at her in surprise.

"Nothing much, just a way to thank you for taking care of me," Zhaoshanezǐ turned her gaze away.

Huh, " Huo Ren touched his neck and stood up rather blankly. "I’ll go get us some breakfast."

Seeing the little white’s greedy yet hopeful gaze, Huo Ren sighed and took out a replenishment pill to throw at it.

The little white leaped joyfully and swallowed the replenishment pill in one bite.

Sigh. If they just sit around waiting for things to happen, their stock of ten replenishment pills won’t be enough.

Zi suddenly pulled up the blanket and burrowed under it. The little white happily hopped over and joined her.

Huo Ren held a cup of water and stood there with his heart pounding rapidly.

Phew, he took a deep breath and instinctively touched his neck. He then backed out of the bedroom while looking at Zi who was motionless under the blankets.

It wasn’t until he reached the living room that he suddenly smelled something delicious. Following the aroma to the kitchen, Su Han was wearing an apron and cooking—breakfast!

Su Han’s cold but serious expression made it seem as though she were practicing a profound cultivation technique, which left Huo Ren feeling nervous. However, when Huo Ren walked over, he saw that all Su Han was doing was frying two eggs!

And they were almost burnt to charcoal!

When she saw Huo Ren approach, Su Han immediately tipped the flat pan into a nearby trash can, trying to cover up the evidence. But Huo Ren’s peripheral vision had already seen six or seven burnt eggs in the bin.

"Uh, uh!" Su Han coughed slightly. "Has Zi woken up"

Her intention to change the subject was quite obvious, and Huo Ren wanted to spare her some face so he nodded. "She just woke up; if you have no classes today, take care of Zi at home."

"Sure," Su Han held the pan tightly as it began smoking.

"I’ll go get breakfast." As Huo Ren headed for the door, he remembered that none of them had eaten dinner last night and their stomachs were growling now. Among all four of them, the one with the fullest belly was probably the little white who had consumed two replenishment pills.

He couldn’t let the little white be idle; Huo Ren called out to it in the direction of the bedroom: "Little White!"

The little white flapped its wings and ran out from the bedroom, following closely behind Huo Ren.

Su Han used this opportunity to back down. She turned off the gas, put away the pan, and went towards the window.

Pulling aside the curtain, they both saw the sky outside come into view.her palms facing the ground.She was cultivating on the eighth layer of sky and through the life-and-death runes, she had sensed Xie Yujia's emotional fluctuations. She had activated her divine abiliti...
