Chapter 210: The Nine Dragon Palace
Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
Back in her room, Zhao Yanzi took a quick shower. During the past few days in the Dragon Palace, she had been served with good food and clothes, but she felt exhausted.
Half an hour later, she came out of the bathroom in her pink pajamas. Seeing Hao Ren checking her homework at her desk, she yelled, “Tonight, you sleep in the other room!”
“I know!” Hao Ren rolled his eyes at her complain.
“I don’t want to stay in your room. It’s just that the bathroom is in your room,” Hao Ren retorted silently before entering the bathroom with the pajamas Zhao Hongyu prepared for him.
Little White was rolling around in his necklace, signaling its wish to come out. In the bathroom, Hao Ren took a quick shower before letting Little White out.
Although it was a Spirit Beast, personal hygiene was still necessary. Hao Ren grabbed onto the mini-sized Little White and cleaned it thoroughly with shampoo and warm water.
It was fortunate that it could change sizes. Otherwise, it would be a huge task to wash it in its original form, which was as big as a small elephant.
In his pajamas, Hao Ren walked out of the bathroom, and Little White followed him out after flicking off the water on its body.
Zhao Yanzi was reading in bed. At the sight of Little White, she immediately called out excitedly, “Little White!”
If Hao Ren didn’t let Little White out, she would have totally forgotten about it.
Little White jumped into Zhao Yanzi’s soft bed. After the shower, its long snow-white fur held the fragrance of the shampoo.
Zhao Yanzi caught its front legs and lifted it up. Little White purred happily, seeming to enjoy her attention.
“Little White can stay here. You can go and sleep in your room now,” she turned to look at Hao Ren and declared.
Hao Ren gave her a dirty look and ignored her. Walking to the door, he called, “Little White.”
Little White struggled out of Zhao Yanzi’s hands and jumped down the bed to follow Hao Ren.
“You…” Lying in the quilt, Zhao Yanzi glared at him.
Obviously, Little White was loyal to Hao Ren and wouldn’t betray him because of Zhao Yanzi’s attention.
“I’ll sleep in the next room, but I can let Little White keep you company,” Hao Ren said at the door.
“Humph!” Zhao Yanzi pouted.
“Little White, stay with Zi.” Hao Ren pointed at Zhao Yanzi.
Little White paused and understood his instructions. It trotted back to Zhao Yanzi.
With this round of battle for authority, Hao Ren showed Zhao Yanzi that Little White was his personal pet, and she needed to be nice to him if she wanted to borrow Little White from him.
Zhao Yanzi gritted her teeth, but she couldn’t resist the cute Little White. She opened her arms and let it jump into her arms.
“Little White, turn bigger!” Patting its body lightly, Zhao Yanzi gestured to show her intention.
Being very smart, Little White understood her. It rolled and immediately turned into a chubby Snow Lion.
“Haha!” Pleased, Zhao Yanzi reached up and threw her arms around the neck of the big version of Little White.
She used to hug onto a big fluffy toy while she slept. Little White’s big fluffy body and smooth fur gave her great enjoyment.
With its big black eyes and mild personality, she couldn’t see a hint of a Bin-level Spirit Beast in Little White.
Hao Ren looked at her helplessly. He walked out of her room and shut the door behind him.
“Little White, you sleep on this side. Give me your paw and let me rub it…” Out in the corridor, Hao Ren heard Zhao Yanzi playing with Little White in her bedroom.
In the next room, Hao Ren spent some time on cultivation before going to bed.
“Zi! Ren! Get up now!” Zhao Hongyu called them in the corridor the next morning.
“Coming!” Zhao Yanzi who had slept with Little white in her arms ran out from her room in her pajamas.
Little White shook its head and ran out of her room as well.
Cultivating even in his sleep, Hao Ren immediately woke up after hearing the call. He walked out of his room soon as well.
“These are two Taoist robes for you to wear. You must show your respect and sincerity during the wors.h.i.+p ceremony when you are in the Nine Dragon Palace, and you can’t wear your daily clothes.” Zhao Hongyu handed each of them a robe.
They went back to their respective rooms to change. Little White looked at Hao Ren then at Zhao Yanzi and finally followed Zhao Yanzi into her room.
Minutes later, they both walked out. Zhao Yanzi looked like a little female Taoist in her Yin Yang Robe.
It was Hao Ren’s first time wearing such a robe, and he looked like a silly young Taoist new to the world.
“There’s only one hour until the designated meeting time, and we need to leave now. Today, you’ll need a lot of energy, and an ordinary breakfast won’t do.”
Opening her palm, Zhao Hongyu revealed two red Essence Replenishment Pills. “These are two Essence Replenishment Pills. Each of you takes one.”
Smelling the aroma of the elixir pills, Little White raised its head and looked at Zhao Hongyu with its innocent big eyes.
“Ok. You have one too.” Zhao Hongyu took out another pill.
Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi each took one pill and swallowed it, and so did Little White.
It was Hao Ren’s first time taking an elixir pill. He felt a surge of warmth rising in his belly and spreading to his limbs. With warmth all over his body, he felt an indescribable comfortable sensation.
The Dragon Core in his Dantian shook slightly as if it was on the verge of a breakthrough.
“Ok. We need to go now, Ren. Put away your Spirit Beast.” Seeing a healthy glow s.h.i.+ning on their faces, Zhao Hongyu knew the pills had been absorbed.
“Ok.” Hao Ren beckoned Little White, and it immediately shrunk into its mini-version before jumping into his hidden s.p.a.ce. The hidden s.p.a.ce was, in fact, a bunch of complex array formations filled with Nature Essence, and it was a more comfortable place for Little White. However, it wanted to come out frequently because it was curious, and the outside world tempted it.
After taking Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi to the balcony, Zhao Hongyu waved her hand, spread out a picture scroll, and asked them to stand on it.
“Your dad is busy, so I told him not to come with us. When you come out of the Nine Dragon Palace, your dad and I will be there to pick you up,” Zhao Hongyu said while she directed the picture scroll to rise slowly.
Zhao Yanzi nodded and looked down at this item. “Well, it is the River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting. It has been a long time since the last use.”
“This time, we’ll have to go to Fifth Heaven, and ordinary Dharma Treasures can’t fly there. Zi, you must stay close to Hao Ren after you enter the Nine Dragon Palace. Don’t mess around,” Zhao Hongyu instructed her.
“Got it, Mom!” Zhao Yanzi pouted. She looked like as little female Taoist in her robe.
Zhao Hongyu pinched her cheeks before waving her hand upward. The spread-out scroll emitted seven-colored light beams and turned into a rainbow. It flew up into the sky at dawn.
