to Ge level!It was due to such life-bound treasures that he had never lost in battles with fellow practitioners of the same rank. His arrogance stemmed from this.The Basic Sword Formation - Earth Form...Chapter 687: The Most Talked-about Mortal
The staircase from the large square below to the small square above had several dozen steps. Grandma was already old, and it was also raining, so Hao Zhonghua and Yue Yang were afraid she might slip.
When Hao Ren saw his grandma appear, he hurriedly rushed out of the library's entrance in the rain, all the way down to the small square at the bottom. He carefully helped her up.
Yue Yang stepped behind Grandma and held an umbrella for her.
"Grandma, you didn't have to come on such a rainy day," Hao Ren said while supporting his grandma.
"How could that be! I must come take a look at Ah Ren’s interest group activities!" Grandma replied immediately as she stepped up the stairs.
The students queuing up the steps were surprised to see this.
Who was this old lady… who would make Hao Ren rush out in the rain
All societies had invited their seniors for a visit, but could this possibly be Hao Ren's grandma
Ah, these two seem to be Great Scientist Hao Zhonghua and Yue Yang…
These students were rife with all sorts of conjectures in their hearts.
Pitter-patter...
Su Han walked up the steps from afar. She was wearing red high heels and carrying an umbrella; she wore a light gray overcoat, a white shirt for work, and black slim-fit jeans which made her stand out among the rainy crowd.
"Little Su! Little Su!"
Grandma saw Su Han and waved excitedly. She stopped right there in the rain, waiting for Su Han to catch up with them.
Su Han smiled and waved back as she quickened her pace, exuding a particularly beautiful aura that seemed to bloom in this rainy weather just like everyone had heard it would be.
Indeed, as rumors suggested, Er E (Su Han's nickname) was really related to Su Han…
The students watching were stunned.
However, they could not yet confirm whether Hao Ren was indeed Great Scientist Hao Zhonghua’s son. If that was the case, it would be a shocking revelation...
These students watched as Hao Ren and Su Han entered the library while looking at the long line of people in front of them, wishing to go inside immediately.
The more they didn’t know what was going on inside, the more they yearned for it.
Su Han's beauty almost did not lose to Song Qingya’s.
One being the most beautiful woman in the East Sea and one being the most beautiful woman in the music world, both of them were in the library, how could this be anything but a spectacular sight
The students tiptoed but still couldn’t see what was happening inside.
"Let me in! Let me in!" A girl near the entrance suddenly shouted out.
The girl is wearing a brown knitted sweater and has draped a grayish-white scarf around her shoulders. She is standing on the steps with her boots, and it's Jiang Yuan, who held an individual art exhibition last time.
She knows that Hao Ren has organized a calligraphy exhibition and wanted to blend in among the students to take a look, but unfortunately, she arrived slightly later and was stopped outside, having no choice but to queue up.
Initially, if she had endured it, she would have managed, but seeing that the library's students didn't come out at all while freezing rain was pouring down, half-soaking her clothes, she finally couldn’t hold back any longer when Hao Ren kept going in and coming out again.
The student union members responsible for maintaining order recognized Jiang Yuan as soon as she showed her face from under the scarf. She is known as a "genius painter" in the art academy.
However, these student union officials have no interaction with this calligraphy circle's “star,” Jiang Yuan. Seeing her yelling and pretending to ignore her, they did not give her any consideration at all.
Jiang Yuan’s face turned pale from anger as she wanted to leave but felt不甘心to do so at the door. She finally let go of her composure and began shouting louder while swinging her umbrella.
The students in line secretly speculated that Jiang Yuan wouldn't be yelling like this unless Hao Ren had rejected her pursuit.
Since both the principal and vice-principal were inside the library, these student union officials feared that Jiang Yuan might disturb them. Seeing how she was making a scene, they decided to open up some space and let fifty students in.
Jiang Yuan put away her umbrella and walked in with a huff; this kind of treatment has never happened to her before! She rarely even comes to this library!
She rushed ahead, being the first to enter the library. The "Ascending the Stork Tower" work that greeted her immediately quelled her arrogance. Hao Ren’s calligraphy was both steady and commanding, like a spell that subdued Jiang Yuan's anger.
Jiang Yuan gritted her teeth and walked around the right side of this finely framed vertical scroll. Suddenly, she saw a thousand pieces of calligraphy works densely hanging in the library's main hall!
If it were merely about quantity, she wouldn’t be particularly surprised, but what shocked her was that each piece surpassed the last in quality.
Hao Ren was introducing some vice-presidents to his parents and grandmother when Jiang Yuan’s gaze passed over several calligraphy works and landed on Hao Ren. She suddenly realized he was far superior to her!
In painting, she had been propelled by a grandmaster in the art world, Wang Shitong, yet could still not match Hao Ren. Especially after that exhibition, she couldn't contact her master anymore.
She felt deeply defeated but quickly regained confidence: My father is involved in big business deals; my mother works at the finance bureau, and my grandfather is a high-ranking official in the province. In terms of background, I am definitely still stronger than this Hao Ren!
Hao Ren, who was guiding his parents and grandmother through the exhibition, didn't pay any attention to Jiang Yuan but introduced several vice-presidents to them before showing them around the calligraphy works.
Zhao Yanzǐ, Xie Yujia, Lu Family sisters, as well as Su Han, were all accompanying Grandma.
Grandma’s face was filled with surprise; she thought her son's event would be a small exhibition for an interest group. An interest group of twenty or thirty people having several dozen works is already impressive enough.
She could never have imagined that her son now leads over five hundred student members and holds such grand events!
Hmph, who said Ah Ren can't do big things My grandson has made a name for himself! Seeing the members addressing Grandma one by one as "Grandma," the grandma led by Hao Ren felt incredibly proud. She regretted not bringing five hundred red envelopes to give out!
Zhao Guang had entered the library and was walking beside Hao Zhonghua, discussing with him.
Yue Yang looked up at these calligraphy works that were bold, majestic, refined, or graceful and couldn't believe his son led such a large club of over five hundred members within the school.
"Qingya姐, can I shake your hand" Zhou Liren was pestering Song Qingya nearby.
Several of Song Qingya's assistants blocked him from getting close to her. This time, despite their persuasion, she insisted on braving the rain to attend a student club event at Donghai University, so they could only try their best to ensure her safety.
"Hao Ren!" Upon seeing Hao Ren walk in, Song Qingya greeted him.
Hao Ren then led his grandmother over. Yao Yuan and Hao Zhonghua were slightly surprised to see Song Qingya there and followed over.
"This is…" Song Qingya glanced at Hao Ren's grandmother.
"My grandma," Hao Ren said.
"Oh, Grandma, nice to meet you." Song Qingya extended her hand proactively.
"Little missy, I know you. You're the one who sings on TV!" Grandma grabbed Song Qingya's delicate hand and exclaimed in delight.
"I'm Song Qingya, do you listen to my songs too, Grandma" Song Qingya smiled as she spoke.
Hao Ren watched his grandmother nervously, fearing that she might say something inappropriate.
"Of course I have. You also dance on TV, very beautifully!" Grandma said excitedly, "Unfortunately for us, Ah Ren already has someone in his life; otherwise you could be our daughter-in-law."
The next sentence from his grandma almost made Hao Ren break out in a sweat.
However, what she had said was just a joke. Song Qingya smiled faintly while her assistants were pulling their hair in frustration.
"Brother Hao, Brother Hao," Zhou Liren pushed his way over and stood next to Hao Ren, trying hard to show how close he was with him.
"This is my dorm mate, Zhou Liren." Hao Ren introduced.
"Hello," Song Qingya extended her soft little hand.
Zhou Liren quickly got excited and grabbed it. He only made brief contact before turning red and not daring to say anything else; he then squeezed back into the crowd.
Compared to Zhou Liren, Zhao Jiayin et al had thinner skin and were both jealous and envious of him for being able to shake hands with their goddess Song Qingya through Hao Ren’s connection. They beat him up fiercely. Zhou Liren sniffed at his right hand excitedly, his eyes full of blood-red passion. He shook hands with Song Qingya! This moment was worth reliving a hundred times, a thousand times!
Right when they were brawling, they heard Hao Ren introduce further: "This is my father, Hao Zhonghua, and my mother Yao Yuan."
Hao Zhonghua! Yao Yuan!
Bam… Zhao Jiayin’s group felt as if their heads exploded.
Jiang Yu standing in the crowd also instantly widened her eyes.
She had seen Hao Ren braving the rain to welcome Hao Zhonghua and Yao Yuan into the library, mistaking them for guests invited by the school. She never expected that Hao Ren would have any connection with Hao Zhonghua! Nor did she think that Hao Ren was actually Hao Zhonghua's son!
There had been no such rumors before, thus there were no psychological preparations.
Jiang Yu thought about her consent to allow Hao Ren to be her boyfriend and then discovered that his parents are the world-famous Hao Zhonghua and Yao Yuan. She was instantly startled into taking two huge steps back.
Hao Zhonghua's and Yao Yuan’s influence in China definitely surpassed those of a provincial governor or minister!
Not only Jiang Yu, even Zhao Jiayin et al also stretched their necks out in shock. They were classmates with Hao Ren for three years, yet they suddenly discovered that ordinary Hao Ren was actually the son of Hao Zhonghua and Yao Yuan!
They are those two super scientists who often appear in world-class magazines!
Hao Ren, what a sneaky bastard! He really kept it under wraps.
"Heh heh, I've long heard of your names," Song Qingya extended her hand and shook hands with Hao Zhonghua and Yue Yang one after another.
Standing beside his grandmother, Hao Ren’s peripheral vision remained fixated on Xu Ke and his "grandfather" in the grand hall.
The aura-hiding golden dragon old man stood at a distance, silently observing him.
If they don’t move, I won’t either.
Looking around, Hao Ren failed to spot Yue Zilong’s figure.
Currently, he had Su Han and Zhao Guang by his side, along with dozens of Dragon Kings. Hao Ren believed that this Xu Ke's "grandfather" would also be observing the situation and wouldn’t act rashly.
The Golden Dragon lineage wouldn’t know their exact lineage until they formally graduated from their tutelage; Hao Ren guessed that this individual was likely not Xu Ke’s grandfather but rather his master, Taiyi Cave Lord.
Taiyi Cave Lord, who occupied one of the Five Great Caverns Heaven, personally making a move demonstrated just how much he coveted the "Mysterious Water Sword Technique," further proving the preciousness of Hao Ren's Mysterious Water Sword Technique.
Of course, there was another reason: to reclaim the Heavenly Spiritual Treasure Golden Light Shield.
The Golden Light Shield lying within Hao Ren’s芥子空間發出滋滋的低鳴聲，似乎也感受到了厲害角色的到來。
At this moment, the golden light shield resting in Hao Ren's jiezi space emitted a low buzzing sound, seemingly sensing the presence of formidable figures.
"Hao Ren’s parents are actually Hao Zhonghua and Yue Yang!"
"Hao Ren is the son of renowned scientist Hao Ren!"
"At the calligraphy society's event, Hao Ren’s parents appeared! They’re the ones who came to our school for a lecture session previously—Hao Zhonghua and Yue Yang!"
Instantly, this news spread like wildfire across the campus. Even students lining up outside the library learned about it via their phones.
The Dragon Kings inside the library had already heard rumors that one of the East Sea Palace's Dragon Kings married a mortal who could practice cultivation; now they confirmed it to be true.
Hao Ren revealing his parents' identities was, of course, based on his own considerations.
With Huang Xujie and the calligraphy society members already knowing about him, many students actively probing into his background, news of Hao Ren’s parents being Hao Zhonghua and Yue Yang would soon spread.
Introducing his parents to numerous Dragon Cultivators, especially his fellow society members and their elders, was actually a form of protection for Hao Ren.
Now that everyone knew his parents were Hao Zhonghua and Yue Yang, wherever they went, these scattered palace locations would pay more attention.
The dissemination of such information meant even Dragon Cultivators who weren’t usually concerned with mortals would keep an eye on this couple. If anyone wanted to harm Hao Zhonghua or Yue Yang, it wouldn't be as simple anymore.
"This kid has some tricks up his sleeve," Yue Zilong tapped his glasses in the darkness, somewhat admiringly.
