Hao Ren sat on Little White's back, flying out of the Dragon God Temple's barrier and quickly heading towards the sea.

He didn't expect to run into Qin Shaoyang in the Dragon God Temple. In fact, he wasn't against testing his strength by fighting Qin Shaoyang.

However, just returning from the Sea of Ten Thousand Demons, his body hadn't fully recovered yet. He also wanted to return and have Zhen Cunming identify a few items obtained from the Dragon God Temple. Hence, he didn't feel like or had time to compete with Qin Shaoyang.

Qin Shaoyang's realm was still at middle-grade Kun rank, while Hao Ren judged that if he reached Xun rank and mastered the third move of the Mysterious Water Sword Art, he should be able to defeat him.

The Golden Light Shield followed alongside Hao Ren. Occasionally, it shot several thin beams of golden light towards Little White. It had surpassed the ordinary realm of Heavenly Spiritual Treasure, becoming even more free-spirited than before.

It wasn't Hao Ren's treasure but overall leaned towards him emotionally; otherwise, it wouldn’t have attacked Qin Shaoyang when he was about to harm Hao Ren despite Qin Shaoyang being at a higher realm.

Little White was now a fourth-stage demon beast. In terms of realm, it equated to the late Core Formation stage and could also compete with early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators. Upon seeing Golden Light Shield provoke it, Little White bared its fangs and spat out fireballs at it.

Hao Ren was too lazy to bother with their antics and took out the Mysterious Water Sword Art from his Interspace Realm, focusing intently on studying it.

This 'Mysterious Water Sword Art' differed from the 'Divided Light Sword Shadow Technique.' It required understanding based on one's spiritual awareness and realm level, layer by layer. Therefore, if this jade slip were lost, one wouldn't be able to learn what came next.

The Sea of Ten Thousand Demons expedition was extremely perilous, but the jade slip containing the 'Mysterious Water Sword Art' hadn’t been lost, which could be considered a stroke of luck amidst misfortune.

Hao Ren's spiritual awareness gradually permeated into it, slowly clarifying the previously vague second chapter’s text and diagrams.

Using one's spiritual awareness to penetrate the jade slip was very time-consuming. Hao Ren managed to memorize nine out of eighteen variations in the second move before exhausting his entire spiritual energy.

If not for cultivating the 'Divided Light Sword Shadow Technique' and being able to control thousands of sword lights due to his Five Elements cultivation, far surpassing ordinary cultivators’ spiritual awareness, he likely wouldn't even have been able to finish reading the first move with his current Tier D realm.

Zhao Haoran at peak Qian rank spent many years just barely breaking through the jade slip's restrictions. Even Zhao Haoran couldn’t comprehend all the sword moves, indicating how high a standard this jade slip set for cultivators—fittingly calling it ‘heavenly object’ wasn't an exaggeration.

Hao Ren withdrew his spiritual awareness from the jade slip and carefully placed it back into his Interspace Realm.

Little White had already flown to the sky above Donghai City, but without Hao Ren's command, didn’t dare to land. The sky was darkening, with drizzle continuously falling over the city.

"Let's go home!"

Hao Ren put away the Golden Light Shield and patted Xiaobai's head.

In the small villa, Zhao Ranzi and the others were waiting for Hao Ren to return. When Hao Ren brought Xiaobai, who looked like a little dog, into the house, his grandmother immediately started scolding him.

"Earlier, Xiao Xue's family came to our place as guests; they left only after dinner. You this naughty boy, you were out all day and didn't even come back!" Grandmother waved her cane at Hao Ren, pretending to hit him.

"It was my fault, it was my fault..." Hao Ren quickly surrendered, but then he suddenly noticed the cane in his grandmother's hand. "Where did this come from"

"This is a gift from Xiao Xue’s mother, especially brought here from another place!" Grandmother lightly tapped Hao Ren with the end of her cane without really wanting to hit him.

Hao Ren didn't expect Wu Luoxue's family to visit their house; however, considering the relationship between their families due to Zhen Congming and it being during the Mid-Autumn Festival, Mayor Wu visiting them was quite normal.

On the other hand, many people would want to give gifts or visit a mayor, but for a mayor to reciprocate by coming over with gifts is probably unique in Donghai City.

Hao Ren hadn't met Wu Luoxue's mother before. She had specially come as a guest, and he wasn't home, which indeed seemed inappropriate.

"Grandma, why don’t you come to my school with Mom and Dad tomorrow I'm going to the school today!" Hao Ren said hurriedly, worried that his grandmother would still hit him.

"Alright, then we’ll come over tomorrow. Is Xiao Su at your school too" His grandmother asked.

"Yes..." Sweat beaded on Hao Ren's forehead; sure enough, his grandmother was missing Su Han.

Xie Yujia and the others were also planning to go to school tonight, with their bags already in the living room. If not for waiting for Hao Ren, they would have gone to school with Mayor Wu.

"I’ve packed your clothes; it's getting cold now, so I brought some thicker ones." Xie Yujia said as she felt her bag.

She was thoughtful and considerate—Hao Ren didn't need to worry about anything in daily life.

"Alright... wait a moment," Hao Ren walked straight to Zhen Congming's room, pushing the door open.

Zhen Congming sat before a brand new laptop, deftly operating the keyboard and mouse while playing an animated turn-based combat online game.

Hao Ren couldn't recall his parents ever buying him a laptop; he guessed this was a Mid-Autumn gift from Wu Luoxue's parents.

It seemed that Wu Luoxue's parents liked Zhen Congming very much, and of course, maintaining close ties with Hao Ren’s family was also part of it.

"Hey, help me take a look at these two items," Hao Ren took out the white cloth and gloves from the Dragon God Temple using his芥子空間and placed them in front of Zhen Cunming.

Zhen Cunming paused his game, turned to glance at the two items in Hao Ren's hand, and said, "Trash."

"Look carefully!" Hao Ren shoved the items right before Zhen Cunming's eyes.

Only then did Zhen Cunming impatiently pick up both items and flip them over in his hands a few times.

"This cloth is made from celestial silkworm silk. The celestial silkworms are class D demon beasts, and the silk they produce is very durable, so things made with their silk won’t be damaged by water or fire. No matter how dirty this cloth gets, all it needs is a burn or dip in water to become clean again."

"What use does that serve" Hao Ren asked urgently.

"Need I say more..." Zhen Cunming looked down on Hao Ren with disdain, "it's an advanced cleaning cloth for wiping法寶!"

Uh... Hearing what Zhen Cunming said, it felt to Hao Ren as if he had a fish bone stuck in his throat.

The Golden Light Shield ran out of Hao Ren’s芥子空間and spun around Hao Ren. As a divine treasure with some level of intelligence, it knew that it wasn’t appropriate for it to appear when there were ordinary people around.

Seeing Hao Ren pick up the white cloth in this room containing only himself and Zhen Cunming, it eagerly bounced out.

Hao Ren glared at it angrily. It turned out that its special fondness for this white cloth when they were in the treasure vault was because of how well it cleaned its body!

The Golden Light Shield circled around Hao Ren's chest again, spinning and emitting soft golden light. After advancing to a new realm, it had changed from a tattered copper gong to an unappealing black lump.

If Hao Ren could clean it often enough, perhaps its true form of golden light would be restored.

"Get lost!" Hao Ren waved his hand and struck the Golden Light Shield away. He had no patience for this shield that was even more shameless than Xiaobai.

However, the Golden Light Shield flew back on its own initiative, rubbing itself vigorously against the white cloth in Hao Ren's palm. Its shamelessness rivaled Xiaobai’s.

"But still, this is an ancient cultivator’s item; class D celestial silkworms are extinct now at least in this realm. This piece of cloth can repair cracks in法寶and cultivate their spirit essence; it’s quite a precious treasure," Zhen Cunming continued.

The Golden Light Shield kept rubbing itself against the white cloth in Hao Ren's hand. After Hao Ren tossed the cloth onto the windowsill, the shield immediately flew there and rubbed against it like someone scratching an itch.

"And what about this one" Hao Ren asked as he picked up the torn glove again.

"This is also an item from ancient monks, but it's already broken. There are many of these things on the seabed in the Sea of Ten Thousand Demons; they can be used to grab magical treasures and enhance your own mana for施展 techniques, or to catch incoming magical treasures. If you want to use it, you'll need to repair it first. Its value is pretty average," Zhen Caiming said indifferently.

When Zhen Caiming said that its value was pretty average, Hao Ren was already satisfied with it. Zhen Caiming had very high standards, and this glove was meant for Xie Yujia to use. With her Foundation Establishment realm cultivation base, having such a magical treasure should be good enough.

"Then... Can you help me repair it" Hao Ren asked him.

"Repair" Zhen Caiming raised his eyebrows. "I don't have the time for that; I still need to do my homework!"

Hao Ren looked at him, thinking to himself that if he had no time for homework but kept playing games, how could he possibly chase after Wu Luoxue with such a lack of ambition

Zhen Caiming turned his head and looked at the Golden Light Shield rolling around on the windowsill like an itchy boot. "This Heaven-Linking Divine Treasure is also one of the best treasures, so let this low-level magical treasure handle the repair."

"It... Repair" Hao Ren stared in surprise at the Golden Light Shield.

"What's there to be surprised about The Golden Light Shield's strength is greater than yours; repairing a damaged magical treasure isn't that big of a deal." Zhen Caiming pouted and went back to playing his game.

From the tone, it seemed as if Hao Ren was less useful than a magical treasure!

Hao Ren glanced at him but didn't bother arguing. After all, he had already gotten the information he needed. Even though Zhen Caiming could be rude with his words, his experience and perspective were still very strong after following Quniu for so many years.

Seeing that the Golden Light Shield was still lying on the white cloth, Hao Ren rolled up the cloth, and the Golden Light Shield immediately flew up.

Hao Ren placed the broken glove in front of the Golden Light Shield, which immediately turned around and circled behind him.

Another self-indulgent item like Xiao Bai... knows how to enjoy but not work...

Hao Ren put both items into his Interspatial Bag, followed by the Golden Light Shield flying in after them.

He walked out of the room and saw Xie Yujia and the others all ready to go. He smiled and said, "Let's go; it's time for school."

The Golden Light Shield would need to help him repair the magical treasure glove if he wanted to look good, but dealing with such a stubborn magical treasure was better left to Xie Yujia.

Seeing how lazy the Golden Light Shield was, Hao Ren really didn't want to make it his primary magical treasure. But if he wanted to withstand twenty moves from the Dragon God Temple's Pavilion Master, he still needed a powerful magical treasure!ne wrong step could lead to death and ruin."I'll go and take a look!" Hao Ren turned around to enter the cave, picking up several items.Bang... At this moment, Hongyuan Senior Patriarch suddenly struc...
