Xiao Bai’s current strength is even higher than Hao Ren's! It’s just that it’s too lazy. If not urged on, it won't move at all!Hao Ren fired two more sword energies towards Xiao Bai, which leaped up h...Chapter 374: I Am Not a Legendary Hero

Zhen Caiming, who was about to enter the room, stopped and looked out of the window.

Bai Xia raised its head, its gaze turning focused.

The beasts' instincts made them notice that there was intense fighting happening in the depths of the sea far away.

Swish, swish, swish...

Rapid waves crashed against the rocks along the shore, causing splashes of foam to appear.

"Why would there be tidal movements at this hour..." With a very keen sense for his profession, Yue Yang frowned upon hearing the sound of the sea outside.

Swish, swish...

Two even stronger waves hit the coast in front of the villa.

Yue Yang checked the time and saw that it was already midnight. He quickly took out his phone: "Hello This is Yue Yang from the Marine Environment Center duty room. Have you observed any unusual changes in the data for Donghai City's marine area today"

"Dean Yue, today’s data has been basically normal," replied a voice on the other end of the line.

"What about now Check the curve over the last hour." Yue Yang continued asking.

"There hasn't been much change in wave data... Wait! A hundred kilometers off Donghai City, there's a giant whirlpool," an urgent voice came through Yue Yang’s phone.

Shushushu...

The voice on the phone had barely finished before the calm night was suddenly hit by another downpour.

Along with the dense raindrops falling, countless fish and shrimp started to fall from the sky as well.

This wasn't rain; it was seawater.

This was a sign of a tornado.

The underwater battle between the Donghai Dragon Palace and Xihai Dragon Palace had drawn such immense energy that it formed a tornado above the sea.

Visible white columns of air were wreaking havoc on the surface of the ocean.

A single swipe from one of these could paralyze half a city.

Bam bam...

Suddenly colliding, two tornadoes hit each other above the sea and even punched holes in the clouds.

"Immediately issue an alarm," Yue Yang calmly gave orders through his phone. He quickly grabbed a blanket from the sofa to cover Grandmother's body and rushed her towards the garage outside.

Despite decades of studying meteorology, she had never seen such a terrifying scene; according to her judgment, it would take at most half an hour before this tornado formed over the sea approached Donghai City.

The garage contained a basement which was a special space given when buying this coastal villa. It could be used for storing miscellaneous items and Yue Yang’s preferred place of refuge during such weather conditions would be in that basement.

"Zhonghua, bring Azifu and Yujia with me," Yaoyang led his grandmother towards the garage while turning to Hao Zhonghua.

In the face of an approaching tornado capable of destroying everything, Yaoyang's calmness impressed even Hao Ren, who had already reached Level Geng cultivation.

"Let’s go," Hao Zhonghua pulled the dazed Zhao Yanzifu and Xie Yujia, running toward the garage amidst a torrential downpour caused by the descending "fish rain."

"Ren, hurry up and bring Clever with you," Hao Zhonghua called out to Hao Ren while still running.

Woo... woo...

The alarm sounded throughout the city, jolting people from their sleep.

Hao Ren and his group, far from the downtown area, heard it clearly too.

The ocean climate was unpredictable. Yaoyang knew that although tornadoes could form instantly and dissipate quickly, she had to alert the city's residents to prepare for them.

She was willing to take responsibility for causing panic in a big city like this.

Bam

The collision of two more tornadoes sent seawater high into the air, forming heavy rain that poured down.

Hao Ren knew that the East Sea Dragon Palace was actually not far from the beach. With such a storm raging on the sea surface now, it was likely the beginning of a war between the East and West Sea Dragon Palaces.

Even if the battle took place deep in the ocean, it would still affect ordinary people.

This is why the East Sea tried to avoid direct confrontation with the West Sea as much as possible; Zhao Guang didn't want innocent lives caught in the crossfire.

However, under Zhao Haoran's firm stance, the West Sea had launched a fierce battle against the East Sea. Now, the East Sea Dragon Palace was fully engaged and unable to spare any attention for other matters.

The clash of senior figures underwater caused chaotic spiritual energy to erupt from the sea, forming turbulent air currents above it.

Among both sides' seniors were Heaven-Earth level experts who could easily overturn mountains and seas. If such a battle took place on land, ten East Sea Cities would be flattened.

"Xiaobai, Clever, go," Hao Ren pointed toward the direction of the garage, formed red seals with his hands to summon a red barrier, then rushed into the high sky under the dark stormy night.

Su Han was resting in the East Sea Dragon Palace and likely wouldn't be able to break through the chaos even if she tried.

Qin Shaoyang had just been seriously injured by Hao Ren, his magic treasure still with him; besides, he didn’t have too deep feelings for East Sea City, so there was no guarantee that he would intervene…

In other words, the only one capable of protecting East Sea City now was Assistant Examiner Hao Ren.

Hao Ren had just ascended to Level Geng and his realm wasn’t yet stable. However, these scattered tornadoes needed to be contained by him forming a defense line.

Zhen Ciming was good at setting up formations but only reached the level of Kan, so he could only look up as Hao Ren flew into the high sky within the red barrier.

In Hao Ren's body lay pure spiritual energy that even Zhen Ciming couldn’t fathom. He guessed it was this kind of energy that allowed Hao Ren to suddenly reach Level Geng… Shaking his hair, afraid that rain would wet his clothes, Zhen Ciming hurriedly ran toward the garage.

Xiaobai looked up with concern, took a few steps toward the garage and then turned around. Transforming into a snow lion, he leaped towards the high sky.

Even though she disliked being wet by rain, Xiaobai couldn’t abandon her master.

whoosh

The white snow lion's broad back supports Hao Ren.

The flames under the snow lion’s paws spread to its entire body. In an instant, balls of flame were burning all around the snow lion.

It was like a huge fireball floating high in the night sky; however, this fireball was enclosed within a red barrier that ordinary people couldn’t see through.

The spirited snow lion had advanced to the second stage as a demon beast. Its four little legs were now pure gold.

Sitting on top of the snow lion’s back, Hao Ren felt warm. When he looked down and saw the snow lion's glowing eyes and its surroundings ablaze with flames, he immediately sensed the overwhelming fighting spirit within it.

The rain pouring over instantly turned into steam.

Ordinary mortals couldn’t see such a scene; otherwise, Hao Ren riding atop a flaming snow lion would be incredibly impressive.

Sword Shadow Specter Formation, activate!

Hao Ren's 320 sword beams erupted from his body in unison.

With a loud boom, the seawater was stirred into chaos.

Tidal waves surged up.

The sea churned and swirled with countless whirlpools.

Hao Ren could imagine how fierce the battle would be at the bottom of the ocean between the East Sea Dragon Palace and the West Sea Dragon Palace.

Another intense burst of spiritual energy shot up from within the seawater. This kind of power pierced through several thousand tons of water to form a vacuum zone, which then created a massive whirlpool as it was filled in by surrounding water.

The surging spiritual energy simultaneously stirred up air currents and formed a tornado.

How intense the colliding tornadoes were at sea level, ten times that intensity would be felt underwater.

Rush…

A tornado flew off toward Donghai City.

"Two Dragons Emerging from Water Formation!"

Hao Ren flicked his fingers and the 320 sword beams surged over to obliterate the tornado.

Under Hao Ren's sword beams, a tornado several thousand meters high with a rotational speed of 800 kilometers per hour was instantly cut into segments like slicing cucumbers.

The dissipating tornado turned into a gust of wind that blew toward the shore and stirred up sandstorms.

Two more tornadoes approached from the southern direction of Donghai City, spinning as they did so.

A massive amount of rainwater was being scattered around by the periphery of these tornadoes.

The 320 sword beams automatically split into two groups and sliced through the center of each "tornado formation" in opposite directions to destroy them.

A dissipating tornado dropped a massive amount of flounder fish onto the southern area roofs and streets of Donghai City.

On the sea surface, over ten highly unstable tornadoes that appeared suddenly vanished just as quickly. They wreaked havoc crazily but none could approach Donghai City’s range.

The residents by the beach and people in the tall buildings within the city saw several tornadoes approach Donghai City consecutively before dissipating abruptly.

They were unaware that Hao Ren, hidden behind an invisible red barrier, effortlessly resisted these invading tornadoes alone.

Three hundred twenty sword beams formed a defense network spanning dozens of kilometers and eliminated the once-in-a-century "water spouts."

Hao Ren previously had no idea what the power level of the Geng grade was. Now in an unstable state, he could easily intercept four or five tornadoes powerful enough to tear apart any house or tree with just his sword beams. Hao Ren knew that cultivators were indeed far above ordinary people, wielding powers beyond nature.

Swish…

The three hundred twenty sword beams swept across the sea surface.

All active tornadoes had their roots severed on the sea surface and collectively vanished amid ripples.

The violent rainstorm enveloping Donghai City immediately ceased.

Woo… Woo…

The alarm signals blanketing Donghai City slowly dissipated.

Fortunately, no tornadoes had landed. For the city, it was merely an unexpected level-eight typhoon in the middle of the night.

Yue Yang embraced Zhao Yanzi and Xie Yujia as they emerged from the garage.

Hao Zhonghua supported his grandma carefully as he came out of the garage too.

Zhen Cunming yawned widely, patting his mouth with his palm. He crossed the pond in the garden and headed toward the house.

"Ren Ren," Hao Zhonghua called out.

In the garden, Hao Ren lay on a large rock as if he had fainted. Slowly raising his head, he asked dazedly, "Dad, is the typhoon over I just slipped and blacked out."

"Sigh, you're such a weakling," Hao Zhonghua walked up, grabbed Hao Ren's arm to pull him up, then glanced at Zhao Yanzi and Xie Yujia’s expressions before whispering, "How does he deserve Rainya and Yanzi"

Xie Yujia covered her mouth with a smile. Zhao Yanzi pouted her lips, poking Hao Ren's waist with her fingers while forcing out the words, "Being so timid, I’ll be sleeping in one room with you tonight."

The man of my heart is an unparalleled hero who will someday come riding on golden clouds to marry me.

Zhao Yanzi silently recited these lines in her heart.
