The day's classes passed by swiftly. Soon, it was time for evening. Hao Ren put his things back in the dormitory and then took a vehicle to Zhao Yanzi’s home.

Since there were some matters in the afternoon, Hao Ren didn't go to Su Han's place. Besides, he knew that Su Han needed to concentrate on her breakthroughs herself, so it wouldn’t be very considerate of him to frequently disturb her.

A single instruction from her would surpass Hao Ren cultivating for one or two hundred days. However, their relationship was still one of jurisdiction and being under jurisdiction—Hao Ren didn't dare to constantly throw himself into a predicament by going there.

When he arrived at Zhao Yanzi's house, he found that his mother and grandmother had already been there.

Zhao Hongyu was cooking in the kitchen while Grandma was helping her. Da Yang, although not adept at household chores, still offered some symbolic assistance on the side. The three of them together made for a harmonious scene.

And Zhao Yanzi was also there, running around between the kitchen and living room to see what dishes they were making. She was in high spirits and wanted to participate, but the small kitchen didn't accommodate four people, so she was constantly chased out by Zhao Hongyu.

Zhao Guang was quite idle today, sitting on the sofa watching a movie.

Seeing Hao Ren arrive, Zhao Guang waved him over and had him sit down. Then when Zhao Yanzi ran back from the kitchen, she saw Hao Ren and immediately put on an angry face.

"Ah Ren has come" Zhao Hongyu wiped sweat off her forehead and asked as she came out of the kitchen.

"Mother, you've worked hard," Hao Ren said.

"It's nothing. Everyone is just here to have fun. I don't expect much from Auntie either. You invited them all for dinner, and I am more than happy about it." Zhao Hongyu wiped her hands on the apron and cheerfully replied.

From her appearance, one could tell that she had finally finished her busy design drafts, while Zhao Guang should have also managed to invite the elderly wood master from Qingfeng Forest. Hence, both Zhao Guang and Zhao Hongyu looked quite satisfied today.

"Is there anything I can help with" Hao Ren stood up from the sofa and asked.

"No need! With your mother and auntie's help, it’s more than enough." She replied. "Just sit for a while longer, dinner will be ready soon! This time Ah Zi did so well in her exams; I really have to thank you for teaching her!"

"It was all Ah Zi's efforts," Hao Ren politely said.

At this point Zhao Yanzi jumped up and said, "Yes! All my hard work. He didn't help at all!"

Zhao Hongyu glared at Zhao Yanzi before turning to re-enter the kitchen.

"You!" Zhao Yanzi walked up to Hao Ren, "Last time when the parents' meeting was on, you were rummaging through my drawer, right"

Seeing her stern expression, Hao Ren thought to himself that I haven't even complained about your attempt to harm my husband yet, and you put a powerful mousetrap under the table. Are you trying to protect me or prevent theft

Thinking of this, Hao Ren appeared calm "No, I just helped you organize it a bit. I found two manga books and one gossipy magazine inside."

Zhao Yanzi's eyebrows shot up and she quickly covered Hao Ren's mouth.

Sitting beside Hao Ren watching TV, Zhao Guang slowly turned to look at Zhao Yanzi with a questioning gaze "Are you still reading these things during class"

"No! No!" Zhao Yanzi shook her head vigorously like a pendulum clock.

"Oh, I must have mistaken. At first when I sat down in the wrong spot, that drawer was too messy and contained those items. That's why it seemed so untidy for someone as neat as Af Zi," Hao Ren looked up at Zhao Yanzi standing before him, "I didn't touch your drawer."

Zhao Yanzi knew he was indirectly criticizing her but couldn't retaliate, she huffed and moved to sit on the other side of the sofa.

In the kitchen, Grandma and Yue Yang were bringing dishes out from inside.

Seeing Zhao Yanzi and Hao Ren glaring at each other across Zhao Guang, Grandma looked kindly between them "Hehe, just wait a moment longer. We'll be eating soon!"

Rumble…

At this moment, thunder suddenly rumbled outside.

"Why is it going to rain now," Grandma looked out the window with some dejection and said.

"Mom, recently the weather has been influenced by tropical air pressure moving eastwards. Warm moist currents rise during the day making it bright and sunny, but at night there's more rainfall due to cooling temperatures. However, this rain will come quickly and leave just as fast," Yue Yang placed the dishes on the dining table while explaining and comforting her.

"I don't understand any of that, according to our old ways we look up and it means it'll be raining soon," Grandma said before going back into the kitchen. Yue Yang shook his head and continued trying to explain things to her.

Meanwhile, Zhao Guang sitting on the sofa watching TV suddenly turned to Hao Ren "Ren Want to come upstairs with me"

"What for" Hao Ren was a bit confused, thinking there might be something on the second floor.

"Today's rain is being managed by Elder Xu from Dragon Palace. I'll bring you up to see," Zhao Guang said calmly.

"Ah" Hao Ren looked at Zhao Guang in surprise.

Ignoring Hao Ren's reaction, Zhao Guang got up and headed upstairs. Hao Ren followed him quickly.

Zhao Yanzi remained on the sofa, still glaring fiercely at the TV.

Zhao Guang brought Hao Ren to the balcony on the second floor where he casually threw out a pale white translucent shield that enveloped both of them.

Outside now it was pitch black with dark clouds covering the entire sky. Strong winds whipped through the courtyard, making bamboo branches and flowers sway wildly.

Sudden storms are about to come.

Zhao Guang reached out and grabbed Hao Ren's arm, "Hold on tight!"

The light shield shot upwards at a white flash. The people nearby, if they looked up, would only think it was the reflection of some glassware.

Hao Ren felt himself pass through several thin layers of clouds. When he looked down again, he realized he was already hundreds of meters in the air!

However, Zhao Guang had no intention of stopping; he continued to pull Hao Ren higher and higher into the sky.

The speed at which they ascended was faster than that of an airplane taking off!

In a short while, the entire city came into view under Hao Ren's gaze. All the high-rise buildings were no bigger than specks of dust!

After passing through another thick layer of clouds, Zhao Guang finally slowed down and protected Hao Ren as the light shield gradually faded.

"Cultivate the Concentration Technique!" Zhao Guang’s stern voice echoed.

Hao Ren didn't dare to delay and hurriedly circulated the Concentration Technique within his body. Just then, the faint white light around them completely disappeared, and a bone-chilling coldness assaulted Hao Ren's body!

Using the yin and yang energy stored in his body, Hao Ren barely managed to resist this chill and finally stabilized himself beside Zhao Guang.

He shook his still dizzy head slightly and could finally see that he was standing on a colorful glass-like platform. Opposite him were two figures—one wearing light blue robes.

"Xu Wei, welcome the Dragon King! Welcome the Imperial Son-in-Law!" The elder bowed respectfully to Zhao Guang and Hao Ren. His expression was steady, his eyes bright with spirit; he appeared to be an upright person.

"No need," Zhao Guang waved dismissively, "I just brought Hao Ren here for you to meet. You can go back to your work."

"Yes!" The blue-robed elder nodded again and pulled out a command flag from his sleeve. He looked up at the sky, waited for a moment, then shouted, "Time's up—rainwater collection begins. End at 9:15 PM!"

Zhao Guang dragged Hao Ren back about a hundred meters; he wasn't afraid that this elder would hurt Hao Ren but rather worried that the commotion might scare Hao Ren.

Swish-swish-swish...

Countless white water columns gathered from all directions.

It was as if an endless sea, with all the water in rivers and oceans suddenly converging into this thousand-meter-wide area!

The sky and earth were covered entirely by water!

With these "heavenly waters", thunder rumbled beneath their feet.

Lightning snakes darted through the clouds underfoot, occasionally colliding with a loud crack!

Hao Ren’s ears nearly rang from the noise. The incoming deluge of water made him speechless in shock.

The elder Xu waved his hand, and these waters—like lifting an entire lake—directly rushed towards the clouds below!

Bang!

A loud noise.

Rushing sounds...

The next thing that happened was huge water droplets falling towards the city thousands of zhus below.

The water drops shattered in mid-air, forming a dense downpour yet remaining plump and full!

In the midst of an indistinct green fog, Elder Xu waved his hand again, causing the rain to lean eastward.

Hao Ren could imagine how torrential this rainfall would be when it hit the ground!

Harnessing the might of heaven and earth to control vast expanses of land was exactly what he was witnessing!

After being stunned for a few seconds, Hao Ren asked Zhao Guang, "What realm is Elder Xu in"

"Elder Xu's realm isn't high; only the fifth level," Quan Yin Zhenhong replied.

Hao Ren silently counted: Heaven (Qian), Earth (Kun), Wind (Xun), Thunder (Zhen), Mountain (Gen), Sun (Li), and Moon (Kan). Elder Xu was indeed at a low level, even Lu Qing had reached the Kun realm.

However, he then thought again: with just middle-level Gen skill, such awe-inspiring power could be unleashed! If it were top-level Qian grade, what kind of might would that display!

Zhao Guang didn't pay attention to Hao Ren's expression and continued, "The rain duties are rotated among the elders. To perform rain control at least requires a Thunder (Zhen) level skill; if the world stability is insufficient, even a trial may cause an accident as it did last time."

Hao Ren nodded, thinking that without Zhao Yanzi's incident, he wouldn't be standing here chatting with him.

He watched Elder Xu direct the rain wherever he pointed and felt envious. With this elder's mana, even emptying a large lake would pose no problem.

"When can I get that strong" Hao Ren thought as he focused on his Magic Technique Condensation Spell to maintain his stamina.

"Let's go eat; come down!" Zhao Guang grabbed Hao Ren and headed straight for the ground floor, their descent speed resembling free fall.

Hao Ren opened his eyes wide, feeling like a cannonball plummeting towards the ground. He realized that any extreme sport or height challenge couldn't compare to this!

Forget Zhao Yanzi's uncle who could destroy heaven and earth; even Zhao Guang easily brought them up to such a high altitude. If he were dropped from here, no matter how many layers of Condensation Spell he mastered, it wouldn't save his life!

Thinking this far, Hao Ren shuddered: with such formidable father-in-law powers and a group of terrifying elders who dote on Zhao Yanzi, who would dare call themselves her consort

Bang! Zhao Guang returned Hao Ren to the balcony without causing any tremors in the building.

Hao Ren checked himself and found he wasn't even wet.

Zhao Guang brought Hao Ren down to the first floor, then walked towards the dining room where Zhao Hongyu had already laid out all the dishes on the table.given by Zhao Hongyu when Hao Ren accompanied Zhao Yanzi on a mountain trip; he never expected that it would come in handy now.Technically, he shouldn't have bothered Aunt and Uncle Zhang with his own...
