Chapter 373: Different Objectives
Under the surface of the ocean, there was the West Ocean Dragon Palace.
Stepping on two dashes of cyan light, Lu Linlin and Lu Lili arrived at the front gate of the West Ocean Dragon Palace.
The collapsed front gate had been rebuilt, and the glittering plaque had also been put up on the top of the gate.
Most of the collapsed walls were still not fixed, and massive palaces were still destroyed and not rebuild.
When Hao Ren and Zhen Congming sneak-attacked the West Ocean Dragon Palace last time, they tore down nearly half of the buildings. Right now, the structures were being rebuilt at Oldman Zeng's request, but there were still some significant plazas and palaces that hadn't been built yet.
The West Ocean Dragon Palace was empty at the moment since Oldman Zeng brought the troop to the East Ocean Dragon Palace for an expedition.
There wasn't any elder or troop in the palace at the moment.
Oldman Zeng brought all the troops and forces from the West Ocean Dragon Palace with him because he was eager to rescue his grandson. He assumed that nobody would be brave enough to attack his home base. However, he would never expect that Lu Linlin and Lu Lili would show up at this time.
"Huh, how dare you to expose our Gongzi to danger." Standing outside the front gate of the West Ocean Dragon Palace, Lu Lili, who had pigtails, said angrily.
Staring at the West Ocean Dragon Palace which was half-destroyed, Lu Linlin bit her lip slightly.
"They won't know how tough our Gongzi is until we teach them a lesson!" Lu Lili continued.
Buzz!
Lu Linlin stayed silent but threw out a white bracelet.
The bracelet enlarged as soon as it touched the water, and it covered the entire West Ocean Dragon Palace instantly.
Instead of complaining endlessly, Lu Linlin remained silent. However, her anger was not less than Lu Lili's.
As a white light rose, every dark corner was lit up as if there was a sun rising from the bottom of the ocean.
All the craftsmen who were occupied with construction realized that things were getting dangerous. Thus, they started to run away from the palace.
"Humph, humph." Lu Lili snorted discontentedly again and threw out a black bracelet.
The black bracelet released a more pressing aura and made the craftsmen escape even faster.
The entire West Ocean Dragon Palace turned into an empty city in a flash.
The generals who were guarding the important structures rushed toward the front gate with only dozens of soldiers.
"Who are you? Give me your names!" The leading general asked loudly while flying toward the gate.
With a slight flip of her finger, this team of little over 200 soldiers got knocked away hundreds of meters by the undercurrent stirred up by Lu Linlin.
"Sister, don't waste your time talking to them, we should get started." Lu Lili said quickly.
She moved her arm, and the black bracelet shrank back to its original size.
Lu Lili pointed at the east, and this natal dharma treasure that was connected to her mind flew to the east.
Bang!
The five-floored Dharma Treasure Palace was cut down through the middle by this tiny dharma treasure.
This set of Yin-Yang bracelets could either get large or shrink. They had incredible, supernatural powers that were unstoppable, and they could destroy buildings easily.
Lu Lili started first, then Lu Linlin followed her and waved her fingers to control the movement of the white bracelet. Another magnificent palace was cut in half immediately.
Both the black and white bracelets were moving rapidly in the West Ocean Dragon Palace; each hit represented the discontent in Lu Linlin and Lu Lili's mind.
Boom... Boom...
The collapse of the buildings led to the violent movements of the currents of the ocean around them, and all the array formations in the dragon palace were destroyed entirely as well.
Wherever the black and white bracelets went, all the walls and pillars were turned into ashes no matter how hard they were.
This was the most devastating tragedy the West Ocean Dragon Palace had ever experienced.
Boom!
The black and white bracelets smashed a huge hole on the ground.
Without the protection of the array formation, seawater flowed down the hole, and the West Ocean Dragon Palace was left in an even bigger mess.
All the structures were wiped out.
"That's what you get for bullying Gongzi." After kicking the gravel and realizing that there was nothing more to destroy, Lu Lili grabbed Lu Linlin's wrist and said, "Let's get going now."
"You feel better now?" Rubbing Lu Lili's nose slightly, Lu Linlin held her sister's hand and flew toward the surface of the ocean quickly.
Lu Linlin couldn't know Lu Lili's personality any better. Lu Lili was very soft and sweet most of the time, but once she got mad, even a level 10 demon beast wouldn't be able to stop her.
After the devastating demolishment, all the buildings in the West Ocean Dragon Palace turned into ruins; not even a single beam survived.
It wasn't hard to imagine the look on Oldman Zeng's face when he comes back to his home base with his defeated troops.
Dawn arrived slowly.
Hao Ren opened his eyes, and his shoulder was sore.
Stuffing herself under Hao Ren's arm, Zhao Yanzi was pouting and sleeping well while laying her slim arms on Hao Ren's shoulder.
Her own pillow and blanket fell off the bed already. Therefore, she pulled over half of Hao Ren's blanket in her sleep and used Hao Ren's arm as a pillow.
Hao Ren looked down at her small face and touched her eyelashes with his fingers.
Zhao Yanzi slightly shook her face, still immersed in her dream.
"Hmmm, you have been taking advantage of me all night..." As he murmured to himself, Hao Ren looked outside the window.
It was surprisingly nice and sunny outside. The sun in the morning shone brightly, and fishes were jumping into the ocean...
"Fish?"
Hao Ren suddenly sat up.
Like a soft octopus, Zhao Yanzi slid into the empty space left by Hao Ren.
Hao Ren walked up to the window and saw Xie Yujia busy working in the yard.
Faint lights were coming out of her palms, and she picked up all the fishes that were carried out of the ocean by the hurricanes last night. After energized them with the power of her Life Note, she threw them back into the ocean.
The dying fishes turned lively again under the stimulation of her nature essence, and they jumped into the ocean after making an elegant curve in the air.
This kind and loving scene touched Hao Ren.
Hao Ren looked back at Zhao Yanzi in the room; she was still sleeping.
Xie Yujia, who was standing in the yard, didn't realize that Hao Ren was looking at her. She caressed the last three fishes in her hand before smiling happily and saying to them, "Well, you guys are the biggest. So, I'm sorry to tell you that you will be our lunch today."
"Em..." Standing by the window, Hao Ren suddenly felt like there was something stuck in his throat.
Carrying three fishes, Xie Yujia ran inside the house happily while whistling. Obviously, she was going to the kitchen to prepare lunch.
"Women... well... are such strange creatures..." After marveling for a second, Hao Ren put on a jacket and went to the first floor.
In the kitchen, Xie Yujia was scraping the scales off of the fishes while humming.
"Zi hasn't gotten up yet?" Seeing Hao Ren walking downstairs, Xie Yujia asked.
"Probably soon." Glancing at Xie Yujia who had a white apron on, Hao Ren asked, "Are we going for a picnic today?"
"Yeah, it's a really nice day today. I'll hurry up and cook some meals so that we can take them on the picnic," Xie Yujia nodded and answered.
Hao Ren stood beside Xie Yujia and watched her cook.
Xie Yujia felt warm in her heart. Although Hao Ren didn't help her with the cooking, she was still motivated.
"It was incredible how you defeated so many hurricanes by yourself last night," Xie Yujia said as she pulled her hair into a bun and boiled some water.
She looked like an understanding wife and a loving mother when she put her hair up.
"I'm at Gen-level now," Hao Ren said calmly.
Xie Yujia turned around and looked at Hao Ren in surprise. "That was so quick! You reached Gen-level already?"
"Yes, I broke through during battle. Little White seems stronger as well," Hao Ren continued while facing the surprised Xie Yujia.
Xie Yujia was excited at first, but her face darkened slightly after. "Em, I'm the worst; even Zi is stronger than me."
"Old Grandma... is probably above Fifth Heaven," Hao Ren said and changed the topic.
"How do you know?" Xie Yujia asked in a hurry.
She was standing very close to Hao Ren, and she almost bumped into Hao Ren's chin when she turned around excitedly and looked up at him.
"I'm not too sure, but I felt like a familiar energy helped me to break through," Hao Ren pushed down on Xie Yujia's shoulder and said.
"It might be possible for me to see old Grandma again if she is on Sixth Heaven," Xie Yujia said after a while of pondering. She missed the old Grandma a lot, and she hoped that she could meet her again.
In Xie Yujia's heart, she understood the reason why the old Grandma said that they would probably never meet again; her body type and cultivation talent were too poor.
Therefore, she probably could only stay in the mortal world and could never see the old Grandma again.
In terms of cultivation, she was the weakest one as well as the most stressed one. Zhao Yanzi, Hao Ren, Zhen Congming, Lu LinLin, Lu Lili, and Su Han were all a hundred times better than her; she wouldn't be able to get into their circle if she didn't put in more effort.
"We'll be leaving in an hour." Hao Zhonghua's loud voice suddenly resonated in the house.
Hao Ren and Xie Yujia turned around at the same time and saw Hao Zhonghua on the stairs. He was wearing sportswear and shaking the keys in his hand.
Beside him, Yue Yang was also dressed in sportswear of the same style but different color. Apparently, they were wearing couples' sportswear.
Hao Zhonghua was worried that Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi might be going at it too fast, but he felt relieved when he went downstairs and saw Hao Ren talking to Xie Yujia intimately while laying his palms on her shoulders like a sweet couple.
He looked at Yue Yang provocatively, trying to tell her that Xie Yujia was the one whom Hao Ren liked, and there was no need for Yue Yang to get involved in their son's relationship.
This kind of look really got Yue Yang mad. She whispered to Hao Zhonghua, "You'll see; Hao Ren likes little Zi more."
"I wasn't trying to compete..." Hao Zhonghua answered submissively.
"My Zi isn't inferior to your Yujia; don't be so happy right now." Yue Yang gave Hao Zhonghua a 'vicious' stare before stomping into the living room.
