Chapter 846: Grown Too Bold (I)
Li Hao’s tiny domain began to shrink, trapping the frowning deputy.
“Try breaking it, Deputy Zhou!”
Zhou Chuan struck without hesitation, blasting the air with a punch. There was nothing around them, but his fist collided with the sound of metal breaking.
The force of the five elements rushed out as Deputy Zhou breathed out heavily, once more feeling the air press in around him and wanting to cut him to pieces. Li Hao frowned when he sensed the change. Since he’d yet to combine his five auras into one, there were gaps in them, which resulted in the domain being easily shattered.
That was fine, once he succeeded, he felt that just this tiny domain would be able to entrap Deputy Zhou. It was like he’d gained a new toy. He swiftly vanished to spend more time with it.
Deputy Zhou watched him leave, then looked at the direction of the rear yard. Yuan Shuo must have said something to Li Hao. The deputy found the master and disciple duo to be quite the characters. One dared to think of the moon and the other dared reach for it. Li Hao had come up with something new again.
It was a terrifying proposition to be enemies with them.
“The physical body is weak, but if whatever that was can be used as a defensive shield, that will temporarily resolve the issue of a weak body. If that's accomplished, then Li Hao will be nearly invincible in the outside world!”
It wasn’t just a simple defensive treasure, but a natural defensive shield formed by the power of heaven and earth. It could prevent the reaction of the void. That meant that Li Hao could bring his full force to bear in any occasion, whereas everyone else had to split their attention with protecting themselves from the void. Even seven element Arcanus would be suppressed!
The young man would trounce almost everyone he fought in the outside world. How long had it taken for Li Hao to improve so much? Deputy Zhou looked emotionally in the young man’s direction again. The only beings who posed a threat to him now would be those ancient existences.
......
At the same time, the western outskirts. Evenround Martial University.
The Black Armor tilted his head back, seeing through this world to view the one outside.
“Has he grown stronger again?” he asked slowly after a while. Li Hao seemed to have completed another portion of this new dao. Although it was still too weak to the Black Armor, there were minuscule changes in the world outside again.
Everything was becoming ever more interesting!
The Black Armor laughed soundlessly. It was a new age and, as such, a new state of the world. What heights would this age reach?
......
In these days, so long as Li Hao didn’t raise a fuss, no one would dare cause trouble before the second awakening. No one dared make trouble for the top three of the Arcanus Ranking either. There might have been consequences to the Wind and Cloud Pavilion’s original ranking—who wouldn’t be afraid if Li Hao was listed as number one and nearly half of the top twenty being Silver Moon martial masters?
But now, a peak six elements Li Hao didn’t seem to be a concern. After all, the top three were seven elements. Therefore, when Li Hao no longer stirred up trouble and devoted himself to coalescing his personal domain, all was quiet and at peace beneath the heavens.
Various thoughts appeared in Hong Yitang’s mind. He’d come to Skystar City for this.
I need to discuss this with Li Hao. Skystar Martial Academy needs to be open to all geniuses throughout the lands as soon as possible...
A ten-year-old child in ragged clothing approached Hong Yitang. The man ignored the child at first, but looked over curiously when it became apparent that he wanted to talk to Hong Yitang.
The child was as sallow and thin as the rest, but he wasn’t apprehensive. “Are you Headmaster Hong?”
A stern look crossed Hong Yitang’s face, but he quickly nodded with a smile. The child was highly alert. “They say that Headmaster Hong is willing to take in refugees in Silver Moon and train them to be independent members of society. They say you have built the greatest refugee center in the dynasty. Your visit to this neighborhood today must be to observe how people live their lives...”
Hong Yitang looked calmly at the child.
“I am Yun Yuqi’s little brother, Yun Yuming,” the boy said frankly. He was completely unafraid. “The headmaster commiserates with the people of the world. I can sense a saintly light from the headmaster, so I hope that you can tell Commander Li...”
“What?”
“To please open a research center!” Yun Yuming said seriously. “There is certain to be great disaster this year—avalanches, droughts, and even the beginning of an ice age! Our harvests will be completely barren! I thought that the commander would open a research center sooner or later, but am growing worried upon seeing him focus only on the Wind and Cloud Pavilion without thought of anything else.
“Only in opening a research center can we obtain more skill,” Yuming said despondently. “That is how we can swiftly complete the development and popularization of technology! It will be able to withstand natural disasters. Please keep in mind that there are more than supernaturals and martial masters in this world, there are hundreds of millions of people...”
“Who are you?” Hong Yitang asked after levying an extended stare at the boy. Yuming had already introduced himself, but Hong Yitang repeated the question again.
“Yun Yuming!”
“Who are you?” Hong Yitang asked again.
“I really am Yun Yuming...” the boy pulled a long face. “It’s just... I’m more mature and random stuff appears in my memories sometimes. But I’m certain that I’m Yun Yuming. Maybe... maybe my grandpa left something that affects me, but I’m definitely still me.
“If we really want to get down to it, maybe I have the bloodline heritage of the monster spirits?” The boy looked at Hong Yitang. “I came to you because I heard of what you’ve done in Silver Moon. I’m worried that I’m so insignificant that Commander Li won’t even want to see me...”
“Your sister and aunt are both working with him. Why don’t you go to them?”
“Like I said, insignificant.” Yun Yuming smiled ruefully. “My aunt is just a centurion of the Demon Hunter Army and my sister runs errands. It’s difficult to catch a glimpse of the commander...”
“That’s not right!” Hong Yitang shook his head. “Li Hao brought your aunt with him from Silver City, she’s one of his staunchest subordinates. Since you can find me, you should know that your aunt can absolutely gain an audience with him. Even if she can’t, she can ask Liu Long to pass on a message for her.
“And how did you know I would be here? I came on a whim, the spur of a moment. Were you waiting here for me, or did you anticipate that I would come? You’ve got quite the skill to do that. What is Lu Zhen’s relationship with you?”
