ou think the Dragon Clan Conference will take place" Hao Ren asked.Zhao Guang shook his head and chuckled bitterly.Hao Ren nodded understandingly. With the current predicament of the Eastern Sea Drago...Chapter 213: The Nine Dragons Palace

Zhuangzi Zhao Ziran returned to her room and hurriedly took a bath. Although she had been treated with luxury during her stay in the dragon palace, it wasn't an easy experience.

An hour later, dressed in a pink nightgown, she emerged from the bathroom to see Hao Ren checking her homework at her desk and called out, "You're sleeping in the next room today!"

"Understood!" Seeing her stern face, Hao Ren rolled his eyes.

It's not like I'm trying to stay in your room; it's just that the bathroom is inside your room. Hao Ren muttered half a sentence before picking up the nightwear Zhuangzi Hongyu had prepared for him and went into the bathroom.

Xiaobai kept fidgeting inside Hao Ren's necklace, indicating its desire to come out. After quickly taking a shower in the bathroom, Hao Ren released Xiaobai from his necklace.

Although it was a spiritual beast, personal hygiene had to be maintained. Holding the shrunken version of Xiaobai in his hand, Hao Ren thoroughly washed it with shampoo and warm water.

Xiaobai's ability to shrink made washing much easier; otherwise, the original-sized Xiaobai would have been as big as an elephant, making it hard to wash clean.

Wearing a nightgown, Hao Ren walked out of the bathroom with Xiaobai, who had its fur dried, following behind.

Zhuangzi Zhao Ziran, lying on the bed reading a book, saw Xiaobai and immediately exclaimed excitedly, "Xiaobai!"

Had Hao Ren not released Xiaobai, she would have momentarily forgotten about its existence.

Xiaobai, using all four legs to jump around, landed on Zhuangzi Zhao Ziran's soft bed. Cleaned thoroughly by Hao Ren, the long white fur of Xiaobai still carried a faint scent of shampoo.

Zhuangzi Zhao Ziran lifted Xiaobai high with both front paws, and Xiaobai chirped happily in response, seemingly very fond of Zhuangzi Zhao Ziran as well.

"Keep White here, you can go back to sleep," Zhao Yanzǐ suddenly turned and said to Huo Rén.

Huo Rén glared at her but didn’t argue. He walked toward the door and called out, "White."

Little White struggled to jump down from Zhao Yanzǐ’s hands and followed Huo Rén eagerly.

"You…" Zhao Yanzǐ, who was curled up under the blankets, glared at her with her eyes wide open.

Clearly, Little White was a close confidant of Huo Rén's, and it would never betray its loyalty to him just because of Zhao Yanzǐ’s cuteness.

"I’ll sleep next door. Little White can keep you company," said Huo Rén as he reached the door.

“Humph!” Zhao Yanzǐ pouted her lips.

Huo Rén pointed at Zhao Yanzǐ with his finger and said, "Little White, stay with Miss Purple."

Little White thought for a moment, understood Huo Rén’s intention, and then sprinted over to Zhao Yanzǐ.

This back-and-forth confirmed to Zhao Yanzǐ that Little White was his personal pet. If she wanted to use Little White in the future, she would have to be more polite towards him.

Grinding her teeth, Zhao Yanzǐ still couldn’t resist Little White’s cuteness and opened her arms for it to cuddle up to her chest.

"Little White, you need to become much bigger!" Zhao Yanzǐ patted its body and made a big gesture with both hands.

The clever Little White understood what she wanted and flipped over, transforming into a plump snow lion.

"Haha!" Zhao Yanzi was overjoyed and reached out to wrap her arms around the giant Xiao Bai's neck.

In the past, she would sleep with a stuffed toy. Now that she had Xiao Bai, his soft and plump body and silky white fur made her very happy.

Especially when it came to Xiao Bai's big black eyes and extremely docile nature; she simply couldn't fathom him as a Rank 6 Spirit Beast for battle.

Hao Ren helplessly looked at her, left her room, and closed the door.

"Good boy, Xiao Bai. Sleep on this side of the bed. Stretch your paws over here so I can pet them," Hao Ren heard Zhao Yanzhi messing with Xiao Bai from behind the door.

In the adjacent room, Hao Ren hurriedly continued his cultivation and slept until dawn.

"Afzi, Ahren, wake up!" Zhao Hongyu called out in the hallway outside.

"Coming, coming!" After hugging Xiao Bai all night long, Zhao Yanzhi ran out of her room wearing a pajama set.

Xiao Bai shook his head and followed her out of the room.

Hao Ren had been cultivating while sleeping, so he hadn't slept deeply. He immediately left his room as well.

"Here are two sets of Taoist robes. When going to the Nine Dragons Palace for worship, you can't wear ordinary clothes." Zhao Hongyu gave them each a set of clothing.

Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzhi each took one set and returned to their respective rooms. Xiao Bai looked at Hao Ren then followed Zhao Yanzhi into her room.

After just a few minutes, both Zhao Yanzhi and Hao Ren came out of their rooms. Wearing the Chaos Yin-Yang Robe, Zhao Yanzhi looked like a little Taoist nun while Hao Ren, wearing this kind of clothing for the first time, resembled an awkward novice Taoist monk.

"There's still an hour before the agreed meetup time. We should head over now and replenish our energy, so we won't be having a regular breakfast today." Zhao Hongyu opened her palm to reveal two red Qi-supplementing pills. "Two Qi-supplementing pills—one for each of you."

Probably sensing the aroma of the Qi-supplementing pills, Little White raised its innocent big eyes and looked at Zhao Hongyu with great expectation.

"Alright, I'll give one to you too." Zhao Hongyu took out an additional pill.

Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi each took a pill and swallowed it. Little White also gulped down a Qi-supplementing pill.

It was Hao Ren's first time tasting a medicinal pill; he felt a warm current rise from his lower abdomen, dispersing throughout his entire body, making him feel warm and comfortable all over.

The dragon pill in his dantian also trembled slightly, as if it were about to break through its current state.

"Alright, I'll take you there. Ren, put away your spirit beast." Seeing the red glow on Hao Ren's and Zhao Yanzi's faces, Zhao Hongyu knew they had absorbed the Qi-supplementing pills and said, "Ren, summon back your spirit beast."

Hao Ren waved his hand to call Little White over. The latter shrank down to palm size and jumped into Hao Ren’s Interdimensional Space willingly. In reality, this interdimensional space was a complex magic array filled with the essence of heaven and earth; it was more comfortable for spirit beasts like Little White, though its exterior world also held great allure for him.

Leading Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi to the balcony, Zhao Hongyu waved her hand, unrolled a scroll painting, and let them step onto it.

"Your father still has some matters to attend to, so I told him not to come along. When we leave the Nine Dragons Palace, both your father and I will be at the entrance waiting for you," Zhao Hongyu said as she made the scroll painting rise slowly.

Zhao Yanzi nodded in agreement and looked down at the scroll painting with a smile, "Hehe, it's been so long since I’ve seen Mom use this Mountain and River Chart."

"We’re going to the Fifth Heavenly Layer this time. Ordinary magic tools can’t fly that high. Purple, follow Ren closely once we enter the Nine Dragons Palace; don't be stubborn," Zhao Hongyu said.

Zhao Yanzi, wearing a Taoist robe and looking like a young nun, pouted as she replied, "Understood, Mom!子空間 (jè zǐ kōng jiān).There was another room next to Su Han’s bedroom, but Hao Ren had no intention of going inside. Instead, he curled up on the sofa and entered a state of sleep while circulating 分光...
