Lili who sequentially called out numbers."Done. Young Master," their clear voices rang out once more as they moved their hands away from Hao Ren's body.Hao Ren opened his eyes and saw a piece of paper...Chapter 658: A Single Thought to Break the Ninth Heaven

Zhen Fei and Su Han left, but there were still a large number of people in the room. Grandma was most looking forward to seeing her descendants gathered around her, and now with Lu Linlin, Lu Lili, Xie Yujia, Zhao Yanzi, Zhen Ciming, and Duan Yao all present in the living room, she was very pleased.

Little White wasn’t restrained by Zhen Fei anymore, so it became even more lively. It jumped onto the sofa and walked over each of the beauties' thighs.

Duan Yao knew that it was the third-stage Snow Lion, but since she was alone now, even knowing Little White’s identity, she didn’t dare do anything about it.

Playing cards, chess, and PS games, Hao Ren's house was bustling like a festival.

Duan Yao had never experienced such an atmosphere in the Sixth Heavenly Layer. In Tian Mountain Sect, every cultivator practiced diligently. There were only small competitions every three years and large ones every five years; these could be considered half-holidays for collective activities of the sect.

She couldn’t understand Zhen Ciming’s PS game, but she could follow Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi's chess matches. Hao Ren was slightly better than Zhao Yanzi at playing chess, always defeating her, which made Zhao Yanzi angry and ashamed.

Duan Yao turned her body to stand behind Zhao Yanzi. She really wanted to point out key strategies, but considering her relationship with Zhao Yanzi, she held back.

Even without participating in their activities and just watching, Duan Yao felt a particularly relaxed festival atmosphere that gradually made her yearn for it.

This was the life of ordinary people… She carefully observed Hao Ren. This super expert who made even core formation cultivators on Heavenly Layer Five tremble at his name was merely a humble latecomer in front of Grandma's eyes at home.

Because it continued to rain outside, Hao Ren’s family and Zhao Yanzi’s family didn't go out for dinner but stayed at Hao Ren’s house, preparing an elaborate feast.

After the dinner, Zhao Guang and Zhao Hongyu had to bid their true farewells. Grandma was reluctant to let them go, but she couldn’t possibly have them stay overnight.

In fact, Zhao Guang and Zhao Hongyu weren't returning home in the city area; they were going to Dragon Palace of East Sea. Zhen Fei’s condition that sixth-stage and above demons wouldn't appear near Demon Ocean had a significant impact on the military deployment of Dragon Palace of East Sea, necessitating adjustments.

If one followed what Zhen Fei said, that sixth-stage demons would never appear at the eastern or western borders, then the defensive pressure on Dragon Palace of East Sea guarding Demon Ocean would be greatly reduced. Important troops could also be dispersed to other areas.

As for fifth-stage and below demons, with the strength of the soldiers in Dragon Palace of East Sea, they were still able to resist them. These demons then became places where the soldiers improved their combat experience, and each year's casualty numbers would greatly decrease.

Zhen Fei’s one sentence could ensure that sixth-stage and above demons never invaded the eastern and western borders guarded by Dragon Palace of East Sea, meaning her status in Demon Ocean must be quite high.

But such a person had some connections with Hao Ren… This made Zhao Guang and Zhao Hongyu regard Hao Ren even more highly.

Hao Ren seemed to have a low realm but possessed extensive networks, keeping everyone around him. He could handle every relationship well, stabilizing the situation that might collapse at any moment.

This is Han Ren's capability.

"Han Ren, we're leaving. Xiao Zi will stay here." Zhao Guang and Zhao Hongyu walked out of the door and waved at Han Ren as a parting gesture.

"Uncle and Aunt, goodbye," Han Ren waved back.

Duan Yao sat in the living room, watching Han Ren see off Dragon King and Dragon Queen from the entrance. She pouted and felt a bit downhearted.

Han Ren was the son-in-law of one of the four major dragon tribes' forces, Eastern Sea Dragon Palace, where the Dragon King only had an only daughter who he married to Han Ren. This demonstrated how highly the Dragon King regarded him. Therefore, Han Ren's background was far more substantial than her Tian Shan Sect, which made Duan Yao feel a little dejected.

Especially when even her master, Zhen Fei, had a particular fondness for Han Ren, making Duan Yao increasingly doubt whether she could ever take revenge on him.

"It's getting late and everyone is tired. Let’s all get some rest early," Grandmother returned to the house and said with a smile.

"Xiao Zi, your age is similar to Yao's. Tonight you can sleep in the same room as her," Grandmother instructed specially.

Zhao Yanzi looked at Grandmother in surprise; she didn't expect this arrangement. She and Duan Yao were mortal enemies; not only would they never share a bed, but sitting on the same sofa was out of the question.

"Yao is younger than you. You should take care of her," seeing Zhao Yanzi wasn’t happy with the idea, Grandmother added another sentence.

“Oh…” Zhao Yanzi pouted and could only agree reluctantly.

If it weren't for this arrangement by Grandmother, she would have wanted to sneak into Han Ren's room… However, she couldn’t share a bed with him. Downstairs were rooms for Zhen Cunming and Xie Yujia; upstairs was one room each for Grandmother, Hao Zhonghua, and Yue Yang; the other room belonged to Han Ren.

It seemed there weren't enough rooms, but Grandmother didn’t specially ask Han Ren to sleep in the living room and give up his own room.

Yue Yang and Hao Zhonghua were urged by their grandmother to go upstairs for rest. Lu L琳琳和陸莉莉看了看謝雨嘉和趙焰紫，“大主母……我們跟你睡吧……”

Ling, Xie Yujia didn't mind at all and agreed immediately.

Zhao Yanzi glanced at Zhen Cunming; unexpectedly, he grunted softly, picked up the PlayStation game console from in front of the TV, and walked into his room – he wouldn’t give up his room for anyone else.

Zhao Yanzi stuck out her tongue, thinking that Zhen Cunming was being so stingy, no wonder Wu Luoxue disliked him. If Zhen Cunming shared a room with Han Ren, it would free up another one.

Little White followed Zhen Cunming to his room, hesitated at the door, then slipped into Xie Yujia's room instead.

"Or perhaps..." Hao Ren looked at Zhao Yanzi and Duan Yao, "you can stay in my room."

Duan Yao stared at Hao Ren in shock; her breath was momentarily halted: This guy is truly shameless!

"I'll just sleep in the living room," Hao Ren continued.

Upon hearing Hao Ren's last sentence, Duan Yao realized she had overthought it. Still, she looked at him with a strange gaze. She viewed Hao Ren as an enemy that she must personally deal with, yet here she was, reduced to sleeping in the same room as her enemy

Thinking about the fact that the large bed would be where Hao Ren slept and that she'd have to lie there made Duan Yao feel uncomfortable all over.

However, being unfamiliar with the area and lacking even a trace of spiritual energy, she was afraid that dragon cultivators might capture her. The safest option was to stay overnight at Hao Ren's place.

"Hao Ren has been rather busy recently, so you should sleep in your own room. Ah Zi, Yao Er [Jade], why don't you two squeeze into my room" Xie Yujia, considering Hao Ren’s well-being, quickly suggested this.

Zhao Yanzi didn’t want to stay in the same room with Duan Yao, and Duan Yao had similar thoughts. Hearing Xie Yujia's suggestion, they both nodded at once.

The Lu sisters looked at Xie Yujia gratefully, thinking that she was indeed a formidable matriarch.

Having five girls sleep in one room was a bit crowded, but since their figures were all slim and it was only for one night, they could manage.

"Alright then," Hao Ren nodded when he saw no objections from them. He walked upstairs to his own bedroom.

According to what the Lu sisters had said, passing this night would restore his realm. Therefore, tonight was undoubtedly crucial.

Xie Yujia put Zhao Yanzi and Duan Yao in her room so that he could meditate undisturbed in his own bedroom. Thinking about how the side effects of the poison pill plan were ending and his realm would soon recover made Hao Ren feel a bit excited as well.

Plash... The continuous rain outside prevented them from seeing the full moon on this Mid-Autumn night.

Hao Ren undressed, sat cross-legged on the bed, entered a state of meditation, and began to practice the Sword Shadow Technique. Illusory sword lights orbited around his body, surrounding the spiritual ball containing Zhao Haoran's thousand-year cultivation energy, slightly vibrating in resonance with Hao Ren’s technique.

The Dao has no bounds; one's heart is as vast as an ocean.

Hao Ren thought that according to what Lu L琳琳 and 陸莉莉 had said, they might have deliberately chosen this Mid-Autumn night for him to break through his limits.

With a casual flick of his arm, 160 sword lights flew out the window. Forming a chain, the sword lights plunged into the sea, causing waves five or six meters high before breaking free from the water.

The Dragon Emerges Over the Sea!

The sword lights carried Hao Ren's divine consciousness, so it seemed to him as if he was personally witnessing everything outside. As the intertwined sword lights flew close to the sea surface, Hao Ren sitting in his room seemed to be swiftly gliding over the ocean.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh... The colorful sword lights rushed towards the cloud layer, and Hao Ren's divine consciousness followed suit.

A generous downpour fell from high up in the sky. Although Hao Ren's body was not outside, his heart was as if he was braving the rain, pushing against it to break through the clouds with a sudden burst!

An endless expanse of cloud sea!

The 160 sword lights dispersed and flew in 160 different directions at high altitude over the clouds, stirring up layer upon layer of air waves.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

The agitated cloud layers released bolts of tiny lightning. In an instant, the night sky was illuminated with brilliant light!

Bang... The 160 sword lights suddenly converged into a single beam of light, drawing countless rays of lightning to chase after it.

Sitting in his room, Hao Ren felt as if tens of thousands of bolts of lightning were chasing after him in the cloud layer high up in the sky!

Thrilling! Stimulating!

If this had happened before, Hao Ren would never have dared to play around like this. But now he was a person who had undergone re-ascension; his mastery of the Sword Reflections and Light Dispersion Technique was already very proficient. Therefore, even though tens of thousands of bolts of lightning were chasing after the sword light controlled by his mind, they could not hit it!

With one thought, pierce through nine heavens!

A previously unseen sense of arrogance rose in Hao Ren's heart as the beam of light formed from the 160 sword lights suddenly scattered.

The lightning chasing after the sword light lost its target and shattered all at once, releasing tens of thousands of tiny bolts of lightning that struck the sea surface to form a square array lasting several seconds between the sky and the sea!

The cloud layer over an expanse of millions of miles was thoroughly stirred up by Hao Ren's actions, causing the accumulated electric energy to dissipate instantly. The clouds retreated completely, revealing a clear night sky and a dazzling full moon.

The bright moon rises from the sea; at this moment, we are united under the same sky!

Silver light shimmered on the waves of the sea as the sword lights attached to Hao Ren's divine consciousness drew water curtains across the surface. It was like Hao Ren moving directly over the ocean, making it even more beautiful and immediate than admiring the moon from a balcony during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Hao Ren leaned close to ask her."Nothing...," Xie Yujia almost dared not look into Hao Ren's eyes and turned her head away from his inquiry.Hao Ren could maintain a calm heart like water, but she cou...
