Chapter 697: Shocking the Whole World Again
It was daybreak.
The people who had been taken away returned one after another.
News of the Artifact formation spread like wildfire and reached every corner of the world.
The world was in an uproar!
Their eyes once again focused on Huaxia’s Province Z.
An Artifact formation covering an entire city? What a precious treasure!
What made them even more envious was that the formation was able to block all cultivators from entering. That was a highly desirable effect.
They thought that Huaxia obtained the formation in a rare stroke of luck.
However, they heard the news from Huaxia that they were going to set up a few more formations to cover the Capital and River Delta City.
Moreover, they also set up an identification system. From now on, all cultivators who entered China would have to register and receive identification pendants.
Finally, they mentioned that the Dragon of Huaxia had broken through and had become a full Perfected Person. He was the one who crafted the formation!
That news once again shook the entire world, making shockwaves in the cultivation circles in each country.
After their initial shock, they were disturbed…
Previously, that Dragon was already causing chaos everywhere, even though he was only a half-step Perfected Person. Dongying, Merrica, and Europe had been victims.
Now that he had broken through to the State of Foundation Establishment and had created that amazing Artifact formation, there was no stopping him.
Dongying was frightened, and their entire Ministry of Defense was shrouded with doom and gloom.
They were worried!
Dongying had suffered immense casualties the last time that guy was there. They worried day and night and had meetings every couple of days to figure out how to defend themselves.
Now that the Dragon had become more powerful, they were helpless against him!
All they could do was to pray that he did not set foot in Dongying again.
Hindustan was jealous!
It was unfair that Hindustan did not have someone as powerful as that guy! Why was Huaxia so lucky? They wanted to protest!
Europe was silent.
“We want peace! We want friends.h.i.+p! We want to be good friends with Huaxia!”
The elderly warlocks began to appeal.
In Merrica, some people were happy, while others were sad.
Of course, Tang Hao did not know about all that. After setting up the Formation, he returned to the airbase and was warmly welcomed by General Bai and the others. He even talked to the Higher-Ups and received countless praises.
He retrieved many jade pendants and gave them to General Bai so that they could be given to those who entered the country.
Then, he returned home and began to work on crafting more Artifacts.
He had enough spirit jade to make two more sets. Even though the Capital and River Delta City were big cities, he could cover most of the regions.
He finished making the two sets of Artifact formations in four days.
At the same time, he made many more identification pendants with inferior jade material.
He informed General Bai about it, who arrived to pick them up personally with several other people from the Agency.
“Thank you for your hard work, Comrade Tang Hao! We won’t forget the contribution you’ve made to the country. Don’t worry, you’ll be a lieutenant general very soon.”
Following that, Tang Hao taught the people from the Agency the method of setting up the Artifact formation.
After sending them off, Tang Hao let out a long sigh of relief. He lay down on the couch and took a good rest.
The past few days had exhausted him.
In the afternoon, Tang Hao went to the jade market in Provincial City and bought a lot of jade stones. Then, he went to the surrounding cities and even the neighboring provinces to patronize the various major jade markets.
The next morning, he went back to Westridge with Han Yutong.
First, he went to the valley in Dragonrock Village. After collecting the spirit jade, he placed a new batch in the pond.
The amount of high-quality jade he managed to find was not enough to make a new Artifact formation. He would produce enough spirit jade in the pond so that he could make another set to protect Westridge.
He visited his grandparents, and they chatted for a while.
After that, he left Dragonrock Village and went to Qin Xiangyi’s factory.
He met her in the office.
She was busy working, not even noticing that Tang Hao had opened the door.
She suddenly raised her head and was surprised to see Tang Hao. “You’re back!” She exclaimed.
“Mm!” Tang Hao replied.
She stood up and threw herself into Tang Hao’s arms, hugging him tightly and muttering, “I missed you so much, Lil Tang!”
“Did you remember to cultivate?” Tang Hao hugged her and said gently.
“Yes! Every night, I drink two bottles of that medicine! ” Qin Xiangyi said. Then, she pursed her lips and smiled. “It’s boring to cultivate alone though… two people will make it more interesting!”
As she said that, she moved closer to Tang Hao’s ear and blew gently.
Then, she bit her lips seductively.
Tang Hao was very familiar with that expression.
“People are still outside!” Tang Hao glanced at the corridor.
“We’re not doing it here, silly! I’ll take you to see the new factory. The renovation is done, and we’ll be moving there in a few days. The office is very big, and there aren’t many people there!”
Qin Xiangyi giggled and winked at him.
Tang Hao immediately felt his urges rise.
“Why are you still standing there, silly? Let’s go!”
Qin Xiangyi pulled him, and they ran down the stairs.
The other workers in the factory laughed when they saw them.
When they arrived at the new factory, Qin Xiangyi took him around for a tour.
“Look, isn’t it beautiful? I supervised the entire renovation!”
The factory was very big and it had a magnificent nine-story Western-style office building.
The two of them walked around and finally arrived at the President’s office.
The office was very s.p.a.cious and was furnished in a modern fas.h.i.+on. Its beauty amazed Tang Hao.
“How is it? Not bad, right?”
Qin Xiangyi said smugly when she saw his expression.
“So beautiful!” Tang Hao praised.
Qin Xiangyi pursed her lips and smiled, feeling very happy.
“It means that you have good taste!” She put her arms around Tang Hao’s neck, pursed her lips, and smiled sweetly.
She kissed him gently, and her smile became even more brilliant. “Your lips taste very good too!”
After saying that, she kissed him again.
Very soon, the two of them collapsed on the couch.
The couch was wide enough to be a bed. They could roll around on top of it.
Their pa.s.sions were aroused after a bout of pa.s.sionate kisses.
Eventually, soft moans could be heard.
The activity stopped a long time later.
She lay in Tang Hao’s arms and narrowed her eyes, looking a little lazy.
Her face was still red from the intense exercise earlier.
“Lil Tang, I plan to hold an opening ceremony in seven days because it’s an auspicious day. It’ll have to be grander than last time since I have a proper clothing factory and not just a processing plant now.”
“OK! Let’s make it grand! I’ll invite some people over and hold a dinner party! It’ll be as lively as last time!” Tang Hao said.
“OK!” She replied.
After a while, the two of them got up and went home for dinner.
