Zhao Yanzi, who was staring at the view outside of the car, was startled and moved closer to Hao Ren .

Slap… The raindrops fell on the top of the taxi loudly .

The humid air became cooler with the arrival of the storm .

After several clear days, the sudden storm broke the pattern .

While the storm raged above the ocean, hidden currents were surging under the surface .

Oldman Zeng, leading 100,000 soldiers, charged toward the East Ocean Dragon Palace .

With the arrival of Zhao Haoran, the South Ocean Dragon Clan and the North Ocean Dragon Clan withdrew their support, and Oldman Zeng thought about backing off as well .

However, after the East Ocean Dragon Clan caught Zeng Yitao, Oldman Zeng had no choice but to fight .

Zhao Haoran was obviously forcing the West Ocean Dragon Clan into war .

Zeng Yitao was a rare cultivation genius of West Ocean . However, a mysterious grandmaster attacked him and damaged his dragon core, making him unable to cultivate anymore . Despite all this, he was still the heir of the royal family of the West Ocean Dragon Clan .

It was just like the case with Zhao Guang . He didn't have a high cultivation strength but still could control the East Ocean Dragon Clan . After all, cultivation strength wasn't the critical factor in deciding a person's status in terms of inheritance .

Since dragons had long lives, they tended not to give birth to many offspring to avoid future conflict . That was why Zhao Haoran only had three sons even though he was more than 1,000 years old .

Oldman Zeng only had one son who died in an accident a few years ago, so his direct heir was his grandson, Zeng Yitao .

In the West Ocean Dragon Clan, Zeng Xin was the old dragon king while Zeng Yitao was the crown prince; they didn't have a dragon king . Zeng Xin had been waiting for Zeng Yitao to get to a mature age before putting him on the throne .

Now that Zeng Yitao was captured, the lifeline of the West Ocean Dragon Clan was held in the hands of the East Ocean Dragon Clan . As a fierce and decisive man, Zeng Xin immediately made his decision: Fight!

While the 100,000-soldier troop marched toward the East Ocean Dragon Palace, the minor forces along the way quickly moved clear of its path .

By the seash.o.r.e, Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi's taxi arrived at Hao Ren's home .

After paying the taxi driver, Hao Ren dashed toward the house while pulling Zhao Yanzi behind him .

There were only a few steps from the stair to the door .

However, in the few seconds that Hao Ren took to dig out his key to open the door, the pouring rain soaked them .

"Cold! So cold!" Zhao Yanzi yelled . She hadn't expected that it would rain today, and she hadn't dressed warmly for the banquet .

Click . Hao Ren finally opened the door .

Zhao Yanzi dashed into the house, thoroughly drenched . Like a small bird seeking shelter in its nest, she shook her dress and stomped her feet .

"Is Zi here?" Grandma's genial voice sounded from the living room .

Hao Ren looked over and saw Grandma comfortably lying on the couch while Xie Yujia, in her blue dotted pajamas, was clipping the former's fingernails .

"Grandma, it's the bad uncle's fault! I'm soaked!" At the sight of Grandma, Zhao Yanzi began to complain .

"Hehe…" Looking at Zhao Yanzi's bright pink face, Grandma couldn't help but laugh . She asked Xie Yuji who was by her side, "Yujia, do you have a change of clothes for Zi?"

"Yes, Grandma . " Xie Yujia put the nail clipper on the table and wrapped up the clipped nails in a piece of tissue before walking into her room and taking out a set of clean pajamas .

"Humph! Humph!" Zhao Yanzi was panting with anger but wasn't too confident .

She didn't want to wear Xie Yujia's clothes, but she would be more uncomfortable if she didn't .

"You can change in my room," Xie Yujia said to Zhao Yanzi .

"Humph! Humph…" Zhao Yanzi snorted heavily .

Xie Yujia didn't mind her rudeness . She smiled and walked to the couch to continue clipping Grandma's fingernails .

"There is a trip tomorrow, right? Is that why Zi is staying the night in our home?" Grandma asked Hao Ren .

"Yeah, Grandma . But I don't know about tomorrow's weather yet," Hao Ren said .

"Tomorrow will be a sunny day," Grandma comforted him .

Click! Xie Yujia's door opened, and Zhao Yanzi walked out with Xie Yujia's pajamas .

Since she was shorter and one size smaller than Xie Yujia, the difference was shown in the clothes she wore, which gave Zhao Yanzi great dissatisfaction .

More importantly, Xie Yujia could fill up the chest area of the pajama top while Zhao Yanzi couldn't, another thing to deepen Zhao Yanzi's hostility .

"Come here to Grandma, Zi!" Grandma beckoned to her .

No matter what kind of figure she had, Grandma adored her .

In the loose pajama, Zhao Yanzi staggered into Grandma's arms, hiding the biggest disadvantage of her body as compared to Xie Yujia .

Lovingly, Grandma caressed her hair and asked Hao Ren, "How come Congming is not back yet?"

"Oh… He… will return with Dad and Mom . Zi and I came back before the event ended," Hao Ren said .

Since Zhen Congming came to live in their home, Grandma loved him as a second grandson . Hao Ren wondered if he should tell her about Zhen Congming's crush on a girl .

"That kid loves to go out and play . I'll call Zhonghua to ask them to return as soon as they can . After all, it's storming, and anything could happen," Grandma said .

Obviously, she missed Zhen Congming who came back home each night . After spending day and night with Zhen Congming, she had transferred some of her love for Hao Ren to the 'cuter' Zhen Congming .

"Grandma, I've finished clipping," Xie Yujia put away the nail clipper carefully and said to Grandma .

"Well, you did an excellent job!" With Zhao Yanzi in her arms, Grandma raised her hands to admire Xie Yujia's work .

On her wrinkled hands, her nails were very neat . Obviously, Xie Yujia was a perfectionist even in such minor details .

"Grandma, it's late . I'm going back to my room for the night," Xie Yujia slowly stood up and said to Grandma .

She knew her cultivation talent was poorer than Zhao Yanzi's . Looking at Zhao Yanzi's bright eyes, she knew the latter had gained another breakthrough, which gave her more pressure and made her feel more insecurity .

"Calling the night so early?" Grandma held Xie Yujia's soft hand, reluctant to let her go .

Today, Xie Yujia cooked for her, watched TV with her, and chatted with her . All this had made the night very enjoyable while Hao Ren and his parents were absent . However, at the arrival of Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi, she immediately wanted to go back into her room . Grandma felt terrible for her .

"I still need to do some reviewing for the exams," Xie Yujia answered .

"Ok! Ok! It's late! Let's call it a night!" Grandma stood up from the couch and smoothed out her clothes .

With Xie Yujia going back to her room, Grandma felt terrible about doting on Zhao Yanzi alone . As a fair Grandma, she decided to call it a night .

"Zi, you can sleep in Yujia's room . I do not sleep well recently and need to sleep alone," Grandma continued .

"I…" Even though she was unwilling to share a room with Xie Yujia, Zhao Yanzi didn't want to say no to Grandma .

"Hehehe…" Grandma chuckled and walked upstairs to her room .

"I'll sleep with you…" The moment Grandma entered her room, Zhao Yanzi immediately turned to Hao Ren and said .

"Ugh…" Hao Ren looked at her with a surprised expression .

"In one room!" Zhao Yanzi hurriedly added .

With a smile, Xie Yujia shook her head and entered her room . It was storming tonight, so it was not safe to go to Fifth Heaven .

After all, heavenly lightning was the most dangerous thing to cultivators, even ordinary lightning posed the same danger .

Seeing Xie Yujia entering her room, Hao Ren hesitated for a few seconds before walking to the stairs . Zhao Yanzi followed him closely .

"You take my room, and I'll sleep on the couch," Hao Ren said to Zhao Yanzi after they got to the second floor .

"No!" Zhao Yanzi refused immediately .

"Why not?" Hao Ren asked her .

She pouted and didn't answer . Since Hao Ren's home was larger than her home and the rooms were bigger, she was afraid to sleep alone in on such a stormy night .

However, she would never tell Hao Ren this reason .

Sighing helplessly, Hao Ren opened his door, and Zhao Yanzi immediately walked in and opened the window .

The boundless black sea entered her sight, and the chilling air surged in, making her s.h.i.+ver all over .

"Is East Ocean and West Ocean going to start a war?" Zhao Yanzi quickly shut the window and asked Hao Ren .

"I don't know . " Hao Ren walked over to shut the curtains .

"My mom let me live in your home, that means something is not right," Zhao Yanzi continued .

A worried expression appeared on her cute face .

Hao Ren looked at her and realized that she was not as carefree as she seemed .

"Hu…" Zhao Yanzi exhaled deeply before kicking off her slippers and crawling into Hao Ren's bed .

Grandma aired the quilt in the sun today, so when Zhao Yanzi got under it, she immediately felt the warmth .

Seeing her helpless expression, Hao Ren sighed .

Living in a wealthy and influential family couldn't ensure one's happiness . Zhao Yanzi's behaviors in front of people were a result of her troubled mind .

She didn't like Zhao Haoran because she knew he would declare war, putting her parents in danger .

Remembering Zhao Hongyu's att.i.tude toward them, Hao Ren began to understand that she was preparing a plan B for Zhao Yanzi by getting her to marry Hao Ren . The East Ocean Dragon Clan looked magnificent, but it had its own problems . After hundreds of years of peace in the world of cultivation… Maybe one day, Zhao Yanzi could quit being a dragon and become a happy, ordinary wife, far from the danger and the trouble .

"This… is the boundary!" Crawling under the quilt, Zhao Yanzi said as she drew a line on it .

"This…" Hao Ren was about to tell her that he would take out another quilt when someone knocked on the door .

Hao Ren opened the door and found it was Grandma in her pajamas .

Grandma froze for a moment when she saw Zhao Yanzi in Hao Ren's bed, patting the spot beside her .

However, Grandma quickly woke up from the shock as she said to Hao Ren in a loud voice, "Your dad called just now . They are trapped in a landslide!"

Rustle… When the taxi drove along the road by the ocean, the rain suddenly surged from the black sh.o.r.eline toward the beach . Zhao Yanzi, who was staring at the view outside of the car, was startled and moved closer to Hao Ren . Slap… The raindrops fell on the top of the taxi loudly . The humid air became cooler with the arrival of the storm . After several clear days, the sudden storm broke the pattern .
