Chapter 770: Charging to Eighth Heaven!

Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations

This woman in white was the Heavenly Dragon cultivator whom Hao Ren had seen twice before.

The first time was on Seventh Heaven when those Soul Formation Realm cultivators attacked him, and this female cultivator had rescued him. The other time was during the battle between Su Han and Zhao Kuo, and this female cultivator had shown her face in the crowd.

At this moment, she suddenly appeared in Su Han’s ward. Hao Ren and Bai Ze stood beside the bed and looked at her, but she sat down quietly by the bed and looked at Su Han as if Hao Ren and Bai Ze weren’t here.

“Let’s go.” Seeing Hao Ren still standing there, Bai Ze said in a low voice.

It seemed that Bai Ze knew everything in the world, so the identities of Su Han’s parents weren’t a secret to her.

Since this cold female cultivator had no intention of speaking, Hao Ren followed Bai Ze out of the ward. Anyway, it was comforting to know that Su Han had someone to take care of her.

Bai Ze walked down the corridor to rest in her office.

When Hao Ren returned to Grandma’s ward, he saw that Grandma, Zhao Yanzi, and Xie Yujia were still soundly asleep. Nested in the quilt, Zhao Yanzi rested her head on Xie Yujia’s arm as if she were hugging her older sister.

Hao Ren walked over and lightly touched the hair on Xie Yujia’s forehead and then carefully pinched Zhao Yanzi’s cute nose. Then, he lay down on the couch in the room and began circulating his nature essence according to the Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll.

Kun-level!

After planting the mystic crystal, he had reached Kun-level.

However, he had been busy running around and dealing with all kinds of situations, which gave him no chance to battle with any cultivators.

Grandma and Su Han lay in their beds, and modern medical technology couldn’t save them. Even the level 6 elixir pills that Xie Yujia made couldn’t remove the devil essence from their bodies.

Since Premier Xia had unleashed the power of the Heavenly Dragon Realm, it prevented the devil essence from giving him fatal blows. Although he couldn’t cultivate again, he was lucky that he could become a mortal.

However, Su Han couldn’t even become a mortal.

At dawn, Yue Yang and Hao Zhonghua hurried into the ward.

Seeing Grandma that was still sleeping, they immediately lowered their voices. Then, they noticed Zhao Yanzi and Xie Yujia who were sleeping in the spare bed, and they were a bit surprised.

Shortly, Zhao Hongyu and Zhao Guang had also driven to the hospital with Zhao Baibai in her white rabbit clothes.

“Grandma…” Zhao Baibai called out in her sweet voice and rubbed her soft and smooth face on Grandma’s hand.

[TL Note: Baibai literally means White White in Chinese. Without this context, the next paragraph wouldn’t make sense.]

“Hehe. It’s Little White.” Grandma opened her eyes and saw Little White before rubbing the latter’s soft and jelly-like cheeks happily.

She had said ‘Little White’ without thinking before she realized that it was the name of their puppy, but she didn’t think much of it.

Shaking her head cheerfully, Zhao Baibai’s eyes curved up like two crescent moons. She was proud that she had finally got her official name while ‘Little White’ became her nickname.

After turning into the human form, she could move around more. For example, she had been brought to a breakfast spot this morning by Zhao Guang and Zhao Hongyu and ate several buns and fried dumplings in comfort.

“Mom… Dad…” Rubbing her eyes, Zhao Yanzi slowly got up from the bed.

Suddenly seeing so many adults in the ward, Xie Yujia pushed aside the quilt in a hurry and greeted them one by one before picking up the hot water bottle in the corner of the room to get water for Grandma.

“These two girls are so good…” Looking at them, Yue Yang said to Hao Zhonghua in a low voice.

She had no objection to either Xie Yujia or Zhao Yanzi and found them both to be great girls, leaving the choice to Hao Ren.

They didn’t know that Zhao Yanzi and Xie Yujia had reached an agreement on this issue, which was why they were getting along so well.

Hao Ren walked out with Xie Yujia to get hot water and took the opportunity to check on Su Han next door.

Through the glass on the door, he saw that Su Han was still in a deep sleep while that female cultivator in white guarded her motionlessly.

Xie Yujia didn’t know that Su Han was lying in the ward that they passed by, and Hao Ren didn’t plan to tell her yet.

The situation was clear to him; he must obtain the Immortal Elixir from the Queen Mother of the West to save Grandma and Su Han.

When it was noon, more and more people came to see Grandma.

The news that Hao Zhonghua’s mom was hospitalized had somehow gotten out, and Hao Zhonghua’s colleagues in the research institute, Yue Yang’s friends in East Ocean City’s science circle, the government officials had come to visit Grandma in the hospital.

The news also reached the high-level officials in Beijing, and they called Hao Zhonghua, offering to move Grandma to a hospital in Beijing for the best treatment with a private jet.

Hao Zhonghua had no choice but to decline their kind offers. After placing a desk in front of the ward, he asked some subordinates in his research institute to record the visitors’ names and gifts so that he could return the favors after Grandma recovered.

“Zhonghua! Zhonghua…”

Mayor Wu hurried to him with several secretaries.

Several provincial officials were talking to Hao Zhonghua right now, and they nodded at Mayor Wu when they saw him.

After greeting them, Mayor Wu dragged Hao Zhonghua to the side and said in a low voice, “Weird ocean currents appeared in the coastal areas, and we need you and Yue Yang to have a look at them.”

Hao Zhonghua had thought that Mayor Wu had come to revisit Grandma as the mayor of the city. However, seeing the latter’s serious expression, he knew that something big had happened.

“The helicopter is on the top of the Holiday Hotel, and we can make a quick trip there and come back as soon as possible,” Mayor Wu said.

“Ok. We’ll go and check on it…” Hao Zhonghua entered the ward and whispered to Yue Yang before coming out with her.

Zhao Hongyu had driven Zhao Yanzi to school, and Hao Ren, Xie Yujia, and Yue Yang had been with Grandma.

Seeing Hao Zhonghua and Yue Yang exiting the ward in a hurry, they knew that something wasn’t right and came out of the room after them.

In the corridor, Hao Zhonghua gave some instructions to the nurses and took his leave from the provincial officials before hurrying toward the stairs with Mayor Wu.

“Little White, take care of Grandma,” Hao Ren instructed Little White with his mind and walked toward the stairs with Xie Yujia.

With Bai Ze in the hospital and the Heavenly Dragon cultivator in the next ward, Grandma would be safe.

When Hao Ren and Xie Yujia walked out, they saw Hao Zhonghua and Yue Yang getting into Mayor Wu’s car which then drove to the direction of the Holiday Hotel.

Hao Ren and Xie Yujia looked at each other and walked to a corner to create an energy sphere before flying after the car. Hao Zhonghua and Yue Yang had taken themselves away from work to stay with Grandma, and their sudden departure from the hospital meant that something significant had happened.

On the platform on the top of the Holiday Hotel, a police helicopter was waiting for them. After Hao Zhonghua and Yue Yang got into the helicopter with Mayor Wu, it flew toward the direction of East Ocean.

Hao Ren and Xie Yujia immediately flew above the helicopter.

From a distance, they saw that a massive vortex was forming in the ocean dozens of kilometers off the shore!

Traces of black essence were rising from the center of the vortex!

“Devil essence…” Hao Ren immediately recognized the essence.

In the sky above the ocean, about six helicopters were hovering and investigating. However, due to the powerful sucking force of the vortex, the helicopters didn’t dare to get too close to the ocean surface.

All the ships close to the harbors of East Ocean City were not allowed to pass this area. However, the city couldn’t put the detection devices into this vortex that had appeared out of the blue.

“That is the… the position of the East Ocean Dragon Palace,” Xie Yujia said to Hao Ren in surprise.

Hao Ren nodded, finally understanding why Zhao Hongyu and Zhao Guang hadn’t returned to the hospital after driving Zhao Yanzi to school.

The position where the black essence came out was the East Ocean Dragon Palace!

“I’ll go and have a look!” Stepping on a sword energy, Hao Ren lowered his head slightly.

“Don’t!” Xie Yujia immediately held him with both arms.

Not only mortals but cultivators couldn’t get close to such a vortex!

For mortals, the vortex swirled so fast that it would suck in everything around it. For cultivators, the devil essence released from the vortex would even erode the energy sphere.

If the devil essence entered their meridians, no elixir pills could save them!

Judging the scale of the vortex, Hao Ren guessed that at least half of the East Ocean Dragon Palace had been destroyed. He hoped that the cultivators and soldiers had all evacuated.

With Grandma and Su Han still lying in the hospital and so much devil essences releasing from the East Ocean Dragon Palace, Hao Ren gritted his teeth and knew that he had only one option before Ya Zi came out and dealt with the situation.

“Let’s go to Eighth Heaven!” Hao Ren took Xie Yujia’s wrist and shot up into the high sky.

Nodding, Xie Yujia felt nervous at the thought that she would see Old Grandma again.

Bang!

Hao Ren broke through the array formation of Fifth Heaven instantly. Before the cultivators of Fifth Heaven could react, he had immediately broken through the array formation of Sixth Heaven.

There was a harder array formation between Sixth Heaven and Seventh Heaven. While Hao Ren flew with Xie Yujia, he suddenly turned into a white dragon!

Xie Yujia was tossed up by Hao Ren and then put on his back.

Bam! Hao Ren shot through the array formation between Sixth Heaven and Seventh Heaven. While the Soul Formation Realm cultivators on Seventh Heaven were still in astonishment, Hao Ren condensed all the nature essence in his dragon body and broke the array formation between Seventh Heaven and Eighth Heaven!

Several Nascent Soul Realm cultivators who were patrolling on Eighth Heaven saw a beautiful female cultivator with fluttering long hair dashing into the mist of Eighth Heaven while sitting on a dragon!

A cultivator was riding on a dragon!
