Hao Ren, who stood in the cold wind, was stunned.

Zhao Yanzi’s tone sounded like a wife who was angry at her husband for going outside to play until very late.

Zhao Yanzi glared at Hao Ren viciously. Yet, she was delighted on the inside. She saw Hao Ren being attacked and surrounded by 16 elders from West Ocean, but she couldn’t do anything to help. She was about to go to East Ocean to get help when she returned to the house, but she saw Hao Ren returning safely.

When Zhao Yanzi stood at the door, Xie Yujia walked out of the door, ran to Hao Ren, rolled up her sleeve to use her clothes to wipe off the sweat and raindrops on Hao Ren’s face.

This warm and sweet action made Hao Ren, who was standing in the cold wind, feel touched.

At this moment, the silence was more expressive than words.

Zhao Yanzi, who remained in the same spot, was stunned as she saw this scene happen before his eyes. She didn’t expect that the negligence of her own would allow Xie Yujia to seize this chance. She spoke viciously just now and couldn’t soften her attitude.

“Come inside; it’s cold out here.” After wiping off the sweat on Hao Ren’s face, Xie Yujia pulled on Hao Ren’s wrist lightly and dragged him inside the house.

Zhao Yanzi, who stood at the door, was even more dumbfounded.

Lu Linlin and Lu Lili, who were still standing outside, covered their mouths and giggled.

It was obvious that Big Zhumu, Xie Yujia, won this round with her gentle and loving greeting.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Lu Linlin and Lu Lili turned into two rays of blue light and dashed away.

It was already close to midnight now, and they didn’t want to disturb Hao Ren’s family.

Hao Ren turned around, saw Lu Linlin and Lu Lili leaving, and nodded slightly. The Lu sisters seemed very playful and naughty, but they had done more than enough in the name of payback.

Zhao Yanzi followed Hao Ren and Xie Yujia into the house in a hurry and shouted, “Grandma, Hao Ren is back!”

“You’re back, Ren.” Grandma, who was waiting anxiously, stood up from the couch immediately.

“I’m fine, Grandma.” Hao Ren walked over quickly and supported Grandma.

Grandma was excited and didn’t notice that Hao Ren’s clothes weren’t the same clothes he wore earlier. Seeing that Hao Ren was unharmed, she kept patting her chest and tried to relax.

Little White kept on going around Hao Ren’s heels. It had an intimate relationship with Hao Ren and was undoubtedly worried about Hao Ren’s safety.

Zhen Congming, who returned to the house with Hao Zhonghua and Yue Yang, held a cup of hot tea and looked at the reunion of Hao Ren’s family quietly.

If Hao Ren didn’t unleash a power that was beyond his control, Zhen Congming would have revealed his demon beast form under rage.

“Come on, nothing happened to your mom and me. Why did you come and look for us? Not to mention you also brought Zi out; it’s very dangerous to drive in the rain,” Hao Zhonghua saw that Hao Ren returned and said in a condemning tone.

Two hours ago, the rescue team found the white Ford that was stuck in the highway. When they found out that the Hao Zhonghua couple were the people trapped there, they immediately raised the alert by ten times and guarded them back to the house by the ocean.

Hao Zhonghua and Yue Yang were the real ‘national treasures’. How could the East Ocean City afford it if they had an accident in the city?

Seeing Hao Zhonghua’s angry expression, Hao Ren didn’t answer and smiled casually.

“What kind of attitude is that?” Hao Zhonghua got even angrier.

“Alright, Ren was worried about you two. Now that Zi is back safely and Ren is also back, let’s forget about what happened.” Grandma didn’t want Hao Zhonghua to scold Hao Ren and stood in the middle to stop him.

“Humph,” Hao Zhonghua snorted in discontent, took out his cell phone, and dialed out someone’s number.

“Hello, Commissioner Liu, it’s fine, it’s fine; my son is back. Sorry to bother you so late.”

“Good, good, good; I’m glad everything’s fine,” a middle-aged man’s polite voice came from the other side of the phone.

Hao Zhonghua returned home, found out that Hao Ren hadn’t been back for a few hours, and called the East Ocean City’s Police Commissioner.

The Police Commissioner was already sleeping. When he heard that Hao Zhonghua and Yue Yang’s son was lost in the night, he got scared and began to sweat. After the emergency call was made, the entire police service at East Ocean was mobilized.

If Hao Zhonghua didn’t call this police commissioner back in time, this man would have ordered two helicopters to look for Hao Ren.

Hao Zhonghua never liked to ask people for favors. If Hao Ren weren’t missing, Hao Zhonghua wouldn’t have dialed the Police Commissioner’s number so late at night.

Because of Hao Zhonghua’s phone call, almost all the police officers in the city were summoned. However, Hao Ren returned to the house now as if nothing had happened; why wouldn’t Hao Zhonghua be angry about this?

“Uncle, Hao Ren was worried about the two of you and drove out to find you guys. There was a rainstorm in late night; It is normal that he got lost by accident,” Xie Yujia walked up and tried to persuade him.

Her voice was soft and gentle, and it instantly decreased Hao Zhonghua’s anger by half.

“Don’t worry. Ren, don’t be so careless in the future,” Yue Yang added.

In reality, Yue Yang was touched by the fact Hao Ren disregarded his own safety and came out to find them in the rainstorm at night. Hao Ren seemed to act indifferent toward them, but this incident allowed Yue Yang to see Hao Ren’s love toward them.

“We’re going on a trip tomorrow. Since everyone’s fine, let’s rest up early,” Grandma tried to smooth over the atmosphere as she waved her hand and said.

“Yeah, let’s go to bed early…” Yue Yang added when he looked up and saw that it was already midnight.

“There’s one more thing I didn’t say earlier,” Hao Zhonghua interrupted Yue Yang and said with an especially serious expression, “Yue Yang, I really saw dragons when we were stuck on the highway.”

Hao Ren couldn’t help but twitch when he heard Hao Zhonghua’s words.

“Zhonghua… How come you also believe in this?” Yue Yang felt slightly helpless. “How could there be creatures such as dragons?”

“It’s true! I saw it with my own eyes!” Hao Zhonghua insisted.

Hao Zhonghua’s worry was now gone, and his anger was vented when Hao Ren returned to the house. Therefore, the topic was changed to his extremely shocking discovery.

“Dragons indeed exist.” Grandma held up her teacup. “When I was young and working in the field…”

Grandma was about to tell her story again.

Yue Yang’s expression looked very helpless. She had heard Grandma tell this story numerous times after she got married to Hao Zhonghua. Both of her ears almost had calluses from hearing it.

Yet, how could she believe these tales from the elder? How could mythological creatures really exist?

Hao Zhonghua and her never believed these groundless tales before. Yet, after this rainy night, Hao Zhonghua said that he saw dragons with his own eyes. This made Yue Yang feel even more helpless.

“Yes, I saw them today. There were a few black dragons and one white dragon,” Hao Zhonghua answered Grandma.

“You are probably seeing things. You must be too tired from overseeing the research institute. Take a break on the trip tomorrow,” Yue Yang rubbed Hao Zhonghua’s temples and felt sorry for him.

Hao Zhonghua couldn’t persuade Yue Yang and could only turn to Zhao Yanzi and Xie Yujia.

“Did you guys see dragons earlier?” he asked.

Zhao Yanzi and Xie Yujia looked at each other and then looked at Hao Zhonghua as they shook their heads.

Hao Zhonghua sighed and asked them again, “Then, do you believe in the existence of dragons in this world?”

Zhao Yanzi and Xie Yujia looked at each other and then looked at Hao Zhonghua as they shook their heads again.

“Uh…” Hao Zhonghua was at a loss for words and turned to Hao Ren. “Ren, you were just outside as well. Did you see the dragons in the clouds?”

“Eh… no,” Hao Ren hesitated for a few seconds and replied.

Hao Zhonghua stood in the living room stiffly and felt like he was isolated. He was a top-tier biologist in the world. Yet, at this moment, he seemed to represent ignorance, and other non-professionals appeared to represent the truth.

“Zhonghua, don’t worry. I support you. There must be dragons,” Grandma stood beside Hao Zhonghua and said firmly.

Hao Zhonghua turned around, looked at Grandma, and sighed.

Out of everybody here, Grandma’s opinion was the most powerless one.

“Since you guys didn’t believe this, I’m going to create a new research topic next week on dragons’ existence,” Hao Zhonghua stood up straight and announced.

“Don’t be silly, Zhonghua. Dragons are a type of emblem. It originated from ancient people’s awe of water snakes. The so-called ‘mounting the clouds and riding the mist’ is not in accordance with scientific principles,” Yue Yang said and tried to persuade.

“You guys don’t believe in this, but I do. I will find real dragons someday,” Hao Zhonghua said firmly with confidence.

Yue Yang sighed deeply. She couldn’t express support and couldn’t voice opposition either.

With Hao Zhonghua’s status in the scientific community, creating such a research topic would arouse many discussions, and many suspicions and ridicules would follow.

Hao Ren, who stood in front of Hao Zhonghua, sighed secretly.

“Dad is about to set up an enormous research fund to find the proof of a dragon, but he doesn’t know that a living one is standing right in front of him,” he thought.

“I support you, Zhonghua!” As everyone in the living room was silent, Grandma suddenly said in a passionate tone.

This was the first time that Grandma supported Hao Zhonghua’s scientific research. She thought Hao Zhonghua’s research topics from before were too complicated and too distant, such as genes and cells; she never understood any of them. Yet, the topic of ‘finding dragons’ was more real and close in her mind.

“Fine, using this topic to attract national even worldwide attention and bring up the relevant researches of marine organisms sounds like a good plan.” Yue Yang gave in. “It’s getting late; let’s sleep. We’re going on a trip tomorrow.”

Zhao Yanzi and Xie Yujia looked at each other without saying anything.

However, Hao Ren felt slightly flustered. With Hao Zhonghua’s reputation in the scientific community, could he actually discover the dragon cultivators by utilizing high tech?

“Let’s sleep, Little White,” Zhen Congming whistled at Little White, and Little White jumped up and followed Zhen Congming into his bedroom.

Peng!

At this moment, the surface of the ocean that was a few thousand kilometers away from the house suddenly exploded.

The warfare between the East Ocean Dragon Clan and West Ocean Dragon Clan officially began!
