Chapter 503: I Didn’t Let You Hold Me!

Translator: Noodletown Translated  Editor: Noodletown Translated

Zhao Yanzi slightly moved her shoulder.

She was being held tightly by Hao Ren, and her body was very warm.

Hao Ren’s right arm that was originally resting on her waist was now laying on her chest through her armpit. Although his arm was only lightly resting on her chest, his thumb was still pressing against her chest.

The rhythm of Hao Ren’s breathing passed through Zhao Yanzi’s ears, and his strong thighs were supporting Zhao Yanzi’s butt. She let Hao Ren hold her tightly as she was afraid to move.

The sound of ocean waves came from outside.

A cool breeze entered the room through the window.

The ocean, dawn, peace, warmth… all the elements of romanticism.

“Jerk…” Zhao Yanzi looked down at Hao Ren’s hand that was resting on her chest and complained in her mind.

Hao Ren had been cultivating very hard for many days, not to mention that he also had a fierce fight with Zhao Kuo before he read through all the textbooks. The moment he got into a comfortable bed, all his exhaustion exploded instantly as he was completely burnt out.

Therefore, Zhao Yanzi could understand Hao Ren. What Hao Ren was doing was similar to how she held her teddy bear while falling asleep.

In the past, if a boy dared to touch her, she would have exploded right away.

However, the feeling was different when Hao Ren held her.

Even Zhao Yanzi didn’t know how to describe it.

He was always wearing a clean white shirt, and his smile was always silly but pure. He was smart, but he never had malicious intent. Also, he could always solve every problem he faced, and he was always patiently helping her with schoolwork. In addition, he could play sports as if he was on fire when he got serious.

Everything about Hao Ren matched Prince Charming in Zhao Yanzi’s fantasy

“Do I like Hao Ren because of these things about him? Or do I see these things because I like him?” Zhao Yanzi wondered as she listened to the waves from the outside, moved gently to the side, and put her head on Hao Ren’s arm.

“Um… Uh…” Hao Ren mumbled.

Zhao Yanzi woke him up when she moved while in his arms.

Zhao Yanzi’s face suddenly turned red.

The moment Hao Ren opened his eyes, Zhao Yanzi suddenly broke free from his arms and jumped up. “You… you… who said you could hold me?”

She reacted angrily and fiercely as if she did not know that she had been held by Hao Ren all night. She gritted her teeth and acted like she was about to kill him.

Hao Ren looked at her in confusion. Then, he rubbed his neck and chest before he smelled a sweet scent from his palm.

Zhao Yanzi’s cheek got even redder immediately. She pulled out the longsword that was hanging on the side of the bed and yelled, “I am going to kill you! I can’t believe you dared to hold me while I was asleep!”

Before Hao Ren figured out what was going on, Zhao Yanzi slashed at him with the sword.

Such a spoiled princess!

Slash! The blanket was cut into halves by Zhao Yanzi’s longsword, and Hao Ren quickly dodged.

“Wait, wait. I didn’t do anything!” Hao Ren immediately rushed out of bed and explained.

“You, you dare to talk back?!” Zhao Yanzi recalled what happened during the night and opened her eyes wide. At first, she was just trying to hide her panic and gain back her proudness by reacting fiercely. However, she did get a little angry after seeing how Hao Ren looked naive.

Shoo, shoo, shoo…

She slashed at Hao Ren three times in a row.

Hao Ren who wasn’t wearing any shoes dodged immediately.

“Come on, my dear fiancée. I was too tired last night, and I fell asleep right away. I didn’t know what happened…” Hao Ren thought, “If she becomes my wife in the future, how am I going to live with her if she does this every day?! Perhaps I am going to be beheaded in my sleep!”

Hao Ren was dumbfounded as he saw Zhao Yanzi slashing at him fiercely.

He couldn’t remember what happened last night after falling asleep while holding Zhao Yanzi in his arm. All he knew was that the sleep was exceptionally comfortable.

Ding! Ding!

Hao Ren released two sword energies from his fingers and fended off Zhao Yanzi’s sword.

Zhao Yanzi was at mid-tier Foundation Establishment Realm. On the other hand, Hao Ren was at mid-tier Gen-level. Of course, he was way stronger than Zhao Yanzi.

Right now, he was worried that she was going to get her third uncle’s attention since she was making a big fuss. He was going to be in big trouble if Zhao Kuo came over.

“Stop it!” Hao Ren grabbed Zhao Yanzi’s small wrists with both of his hands.

Zhao Yanzi struggled and tried to kick Hao Ren in the stomach.

Hao Ren turned her around with little effort and put her arms into a cross as her back was facing toward Hao Ren.

“I was only trying to find somewhere comfortable to sleep. I didn’t do anything, did I?” Hao Ren asked as he looked at his clothes and Zhao Yanzi’s and noticed that the clothes were still tidy. He guessed that he didn’t do anything bad to her last night.

“Humph! I woke up and found you holding me!” Zhao Yanzi said angrily.

“Oh, come on, all I did was hold you in my arms. You don’t have to make a big deal out of it,” Hao Ren thought. However, he didn’t dare to say that out loud since girls thought differently compared to guys.

“I will not sleep with you again, okay?” Hao Ren said helplessly.

“That…” Zhao Yanzi didn’t know what to say in reply; that wasn’t what she wanted at all…

“I am going to work out and wake up myself!” Hao Ren let go of Zhao Yanzi’s hands and walked out of her room.

“Stupid, stupid, stupid…” Zhao Yanzi looked at the view of his back and thought to herself.

Hao Ren walked outside and let out a long sigh.

In fact, he did remember what happened before he fell asleep. Although Zhao Yanzi was still growing and a bit skinny, some parts of her body were more mature.

“I’m too bad…” Hao Ren patted his chest and walked out of the palace quickly.

It was impossible to have no thoughts at all. However, Hao Ren was considered a nerd since he only dared to think but never dared to act. Since Zhao Yanzi was still young and was moody, Hao Ren couldn’t try to do anything at all.

Hao Ren ran to the old well and drenched himself with a bucket of cold water, clearing all the dirty thoughts out of his head.

“Zhao Yanzi is my only fiancée in name. After this summer, she is going into Grade Nine, which means that she is going to be busy studying for her exams…” Hao Ren thought.

Hao Ren poured another bucket of cold water on himself.

After Hao Ren got wet from head to toe, he threw the bucket away and ran to the bottom of the hill.

On the beach, three golden-armored generals were leading their soldiers and practicing their formations.

“Morning, Commanding General!”

The generals saw Hao Ren, marched toward him, and gave him a proper salute.

“Continue,” Hao Ren waved his hand and started running around the island.

Without the weight of the 30 big tires, Hao Ren felt much lighter when he ran. Within a month, his strength had grown drastically, which was beneficial for his future cultivation.

Dragon cultivators didn’t only rely on nature essence when they were in battle; they also relied on close-range combats and martial arts. That was why this training was effective.

Hao Ren ran as fast as the wind. In a blink of an eye, he arrived at the back of the island.

Wah, wah, wah…

The sound of gigantic waves passed through a small forest into Hao Ren’s ears.

Hao Ren walked through the forest and saw Zhao Kuo’s 1280 sword energies lining up like huge warships and flying toward the ocean, making huge waves.

Zhao Kuo had his eyes covered with a black cloth. As he slightly pointed his finger upward, the 1280 sword energies that were flying horizontally above the ocean suddenly flew toward the sky.

All these sword energies kept a fixed distance from each other. They formed a magnificent and colorful light wall as they flew upward.

As Zhao Kuo slightly turned his finger, the sword energies changed their direction and started rotating in an eight-trigram formation.

Boom, boom, boom…

A giant water beams rose from the ocean surface and went through the center of the array.

The 1280 sword essences suddenly spread towards all directions. The water that was attracted by the sword essences followed and dashed everywhere.

Whoosh!

In an instant, a thin layer of ‘water membrane’ that covered a few thousand square kilometers was formed.

As Zhao Kuo withdrew all the sword energies, the ‘water membrane’ collapsed, and it suddenly started raining within the area.

Hao Ren stared at Zhao Kuo and forgot about running.

Wa, wa, wa…

A little bit of the ocean water sprinkled onto Hao Ren’s head.

A few thousand square kilometers, Purple Bamboo Island included, was drenched in water.

Hao Ren finally woke up from the shock and looked at Zhao Kuo admiringly. As expected, only masters like Zhao Kuo could have such power!

Just when Hao Ren was absent-minded, he was surrounded by the 1280 sword energies.

“Third Uncle is mighty!” Hao Ren said immediately.

“Hahaha,” Zhao Kuo laughed as all the sword energies shrunk and returned to his right palm.

He untied the black cloth and shook his body, and the water that fell on his body turned into water vapor and disappeared.

“When I master the Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll, I can probably even fend off the heavenly lightning bolts!” Zhao Kuo grabbed a long robe and put it on.

“Third Uncle’s use of Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll is way stronger than mine,” Hao Ren said.

“Your sword array formations aren’t bad. However, you don’t have enough sword energies. With further training, you might be able to have the power that can destroy heaven and earth,” Zhao Kuo said.

Zhao Kuo didn’t like sticking to rigid array formations. He had been through many battles and were much more experience on array formations compared to Hao Ren. In his eyes, Hao Ren’s sword array formations were powerful, but they lacked in agility and variations.

“Uncle’s sword array formation is more flexible than mine,” Hao Ren smiled and said.

“Kid, you sure do know how to flatter others.”

Zhao Kuo took a glance at Hao Ren and continued, “The sword technique that you used to defeat me isn’t from Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll. Did you get it from my dad?”
