novelZhao Hao, You're Really A Nice Person
| ← Ch.158 | Ch.160 → |
The town outside of Fog City had already been turned into ruins. Previously, when the Spirit Fog Tide had devoured Fog City, this town had been destroyed first.
As Zhao Hao walked through the town filled with corpses, he could not help but be terrified. His cultivation level had recovered now. He held a heavy sword Dharma artifact, and his Dharmic power was vigorous and firm.
There was a ball of Nan Ming Li Fire burning violently within him, which could be used to kill enemies—it was the nemesis of demons.
These were the reasons why he dared to head to Fog Town to find Shen Tian.
Zhao Hao was painstakingly searching for Shen Tian in the town, but to no avail, when he suddenly heard a cry—a woman's call for help. Her voice was filled with so much panic and fear that it made one could not help but want to save her.
Zhao Hao took a deep breath and activated his Dharmic powers. Then red afterimages were formed as he charged toward the direction of the sound. He spotted a purple Wolf Demon chasing a woman in white, and it was about to reach and bite the woman to death.
Zhao Hao shouted and suddenly threw his heavy sword toward that Wolf Demon. The sword pierced through the air and slashed through the Wolf Demon.
"Awo, awo, awooo!"
The Wolf Demon let out a painful howl as its waist was sliced and fresh blood splashed out.
Wolves had copper heads, iron bones, and tofu waists. Even if they became demon beasts, their waists were still their weakness. Now that its waist was slashed, the Wolf Demon let out a tragic howl and ran away since it was badly injured. It was a cowardly one.
Zhao Hao stretched his right hand toward the heavy sword on the ground, and then it abruptly flew back into his hand before he sheathed it into the scabbard behind him.
Zhao Hao revealed a smile, which he thought was handsome and charming."Miss, you don't need to worry anymore. The demon has already run away."
The woman in white stopped running, and her dirty face revealed the joy of surviving.
She looked at Zhao Hao, and astonishment filled her face."It's you?"
The familiar voice stunned Zhao Hao. He carefully stared at the woman in white and sudden realization dawned upon him.
Zhao Hao recognized the woman. She was none other than Hidden Fog Country's Princess—Xue Wuxia.
The smile on Zhao Hao's face instantly disappeared since he did not have a harmonious relationship with her. Instead, there was quite a grudge between them.
Xue Wuxia looked at the awe-inspiring Zhao Hao, carrying a heavy sword behind him, and the expression on her dirty face became complicated.
This was the young man who had said, "Fortune was in the east of the bank 30 years ago, but turned to the west when 30 years have passed.", when his engagement with her had been broken off.
At that time, she had not bothered about what he had said. Who would have thought he had really achieved it!?
Now, Zhao Hao had recovered his cultivation and talent, becoming the best genius in the Hidden Fog Country once again.
Meanwhile, she had encountered the Divine Binding Vines' attacks when heading to Fog Town, and only after the sacrifices of her protectors could she hide safely.
Now that the spirit fog dispersed, Xue Wuxia came out of the concealing array but was chased by a demon beast. She was then very awkwardly saved by Zhao Hao.
Xue Wuxia, who was originally superior to him, was in an awful state now, and it made her feel ashamed. However, Xue Wuxia was not ungrateful as no matter what, Zhao Hao had saved her. Thus, she was willing to apologize for what she had done and thank him!
Xue Wuxia took a deep breath."Thank you for saving me, regardless of what I did before."
Zhao Hao looked at Xue Wuxia coldly."No need to thank me. If I knew that the one being chased was you, I might not have saved you."
Xue Wuxia did not get angry."I was wrong for breaking off the engagement. I'm sorry. From now on, I owe you my life.
"I wish to reciprocate you for saving my life, but I've already given my heart to Master Celestial. We are definitely not destined in this life.
"If we are fated to meet in the next life, then I'm willing to become your servant to repay you."
Xue Wuxia's eyes were sincere and earnest.
At that moment, Zhao Hao felt a little embarrassed to be angry.
Since he had seen Shen Tian's appearance, not to mention Xue Wuxia being a woman, if Zhao Hao were a woman, he would most likely not be able to withstand Shen Tian's charm. It was very normal for Xue Wuxia to be unwilling to marry Zhao Hao because of her ancestors' marriage arrangement after witnessing Shen Tian's handsome looks.
Zhao Hao's cultivation had been restored thanks to Shen Tian's help, and he owed him big time, so he did not think that the grudge between him and Xue Wuxia mattered much anymore.
If they could not become a married couple, then they should just become good friends. They both had the same idol, which was Shen Tian, anyway. To true fans, as long as the idol they were chasing was the same, then there was nothing that could not be forgiven and forgotten!
Zhao Hao asked, "Princess, have you seen Master Celestial?"
Xue Wuxia shook her head."I was in the town the whole time, but I did not see Master Celestial."
Her face was full of admiration."I heard that Master Celestial had predicted the calamity that befell the Fog Plain. I guess Master Celestial must have entered the Fog Plain's depths to solve the root of the problem."
Zhao Hao seemed to be deep in thought.
Since Brother Shen could so accurately predict that I would obtain my fortuitous opportunity and restore my cultivation and talent, then it would be impossible for a simple disaster caused by demon vines to threaten Brother Shen.
My misjudgment was because I was too worried about Brother Shen. My actions are simply laughable!
Zhao Hao heaved a sigh of relief.
"Princess, Fog Town does not seem to be very safe yet. Let me escort you back to Fog City."
Zhao Hao's actions, which showed he had forgiven what she had done previously, intensified Xue Wuxia's shame."Zhao Hao, you're really a nice person. You'll find your happiness."
Zhao Hao nodded."I heard that you had met Master Celestial when you were at the Country of Fire. Could you tell me more about his deeds? Truthfully speaking, it's all because of Master Celestial that I could restore my cultivation. Thus, I'm very curious about him!"
Upon hearing Zhao Hao's words, Xue Wuxia was all the more regretful for not meeting him earlier."You want to know the stories about Master Celestial?"
"Which aspect do you want to know? I am the Celievers' most devout member. How about I refer you to the elders, and you also enter the Celievers!?"
Zhao Hao's eyes instantly lit up."That... Is it really possible?"
...
Shen Tian, who was at the mountain valley, sneezed.
I'm not sure why, but I keep feeling that someone is praising how handsome I am behind my back.
Shen Tian put away the vines and closed his eyes to sense his internal body's condition. At that moment, he was extremely relieved.
Although the adventure at the mountain valley was alarmingly dangerous, his gains were bountiful. It could be said to be a super-rich harvest.
Not only did he obtain numerous supreme treasures, such as Divine Binding Vines and Nirvana Holy Liquid, but his cultivation level had also significantly increased.
Due to partially refining his golden core, Shen Tian's dantian's Dharmic Foundation had started to evolve. The Divine Emblems, which the heavenly tribulation had assisted to form, made Shen Tian's Dharmic power even purer.
Currently, the Dharmic power within Shen Tian had risen several times, and the power of his Five Elements Divine Lightning had also increased to the extreme.
What was more important was that Shen Tian could completely control the Divine Lightning Origin within him, and correspondingly, the Five Elements Divine Lightning was strengthened. That was reflected in Shen Tian's five avatars as they had grown a few times bigger than before. They had also started to emit the aura that belonged to real divine beasts.
Although his cultivation level was still only mid-stage Foundation Establishment, Shen Tian had the confidence to fight with a Golden Core cultivator due to his Five Heavenly Lightning Cultivation Technique.
Besides partially refining his golden core, Shen Tian's Godfiend cultivation was the one that had improved the most. His physical body had evolved to the Yang Divine Lightning body, and he had also grasped a few new super battle forms:
Exploding Lightning Saiyan form, Blood Burning Saiyan form, Dual Vat Saiyan form!
Purple Golden Hammer form, Black Tortoise Shield form, Shield Hammer form!
Heavy Water Enhancement form, Divine Devouring Vine form, Water Vine form!
Also, by stacking his defense to the maximum, he had developed—the Ultimate Defense Protection form!
These were all the hidden tricks up his sleeves, focusing on close-combat-quarter battles.
If other geniuses of the same generation felt that Shen Tian's ranged attacks were too powerful and wanted to have a close-combat-quarter battle... Then after they get close, they would discover... Shen Tian's real expertise and battle prowess!
