Chapter 456

"There's a reason for me to let you go, naturally."

Shangguan Huofeng had just finished speaking.

When someone pushed the door open and entered.

Chen Hao turned his head to look and discovered it was Bai Jie.

Bai Jie smiled and said: "Huofeng, you still like to beat around the bush when you speak."

"Wouldn't it be better to just tell this kid directly?"

"Hmm???"

Bai Jie's words left Chen Hao completely confused.

"Kid, let me put it this way."

"Zhan Xiage's grandfather is there."

"Zhan Xiage?"

Chen Hao thought for a moment and couldn't help but ask: "Who is Zhan Xiage?"

Hearing this, Bai Jie smiled slightly and said: "A powerhouse at Stage One of the Venerable Realm."

"Stage One of the Venerable Realm?!"

Hearing this, Chen Hao immediately became interested.

"You mean, you want me to solve the case and then obtain a favor from Zhan Xiage?"

"Yes."

Shangguan Huofeng nodded.

That was a favor from someone at Stage One of the Venerable Realm.

Zhan Xiage was famous for keeping his promises; as long as it was something he agreed to, he would definitely get it done.

"Brother Xiao Hao, you are currently at Stage Three of the Wang Jing."

"If you want to break through to the Spirit Realm later, you will need Zhan Xiage's help."

"As long as he takes action to help you block the heavenly lightning, you can easily break through to the Spirit Realm."

Back then, when Shangguan Huofeng broke through from the Wang Jing to the Spirit Realm, besides using some items.

She also used her family's connections to have a big shot in the family help take action and block two bolts of heavenly lightning.

Shangguan Huofeng resisted the remaining one herself.

Hearing this, Chen Hao smiled.

Seeing this, Shangguan Huofeng frowned slightly.

"What are you smiling at?"

"Nothing."

Chen Hao really wanted to tell Shangguan Huofeng that he possessed the lightning ability and could be immune to lightning attacks.

Bai Jie, standing to the side, seemed to see through what Chen Hao was thinking.

"Kid, I know you possess the lightning ability."

"Do you think the lightning you experience when breaking through is the same as the lightning you've encountered before?"

Bai Jie's words made Chen Hao frown.

"Isn't it the same?"

"Of course it's not the same."

"The lightning you usually use is just ordinary lightning."

"But what you experience when breaking through is called Tribulation Lightning."

"Although in people's mouths, they are all called heavenly lightning."

"But the difference between the two is like clouds and mud."

"There are nine heavens in the sky."

"The Tribulation Lightning for breaking through from the Wang Jing to the Spirit Realm strikes down from the Sixth Heaven."

"It contains the power of the laws of heaven and earth."

"This kind of heavenly lightning can only be resisted head-on; there is no other way to avoid it."

"That's why we hope you can go solve the case and then obtain Zhan Xiage's favor."

"When the time comes, let him help you block some of the heavenly lightning."

Hearing this, Chen Hao's expression became solemn.

He had thought that after breaking through to the Wang Jing, the path would be easier to walk.

He didn't expect the path to be even harder.

"Wait."

Chen Hao suddenly reacted.

"How did you know I broke through to the Wang Jing?"

"I don't think I told anyone."

Shangguan Huofeng and Bai Jie couldn't help but roll their eyes at Chen Hao.

"Elsewhere, we might not be able to detect it."

"But this is the Ability Bureau!"

After experiencing the last attack incident.

Shangguan Huofeng had people take turns on duty.

The one responsible for duty last night was Wu Zhong.

After that guy saw Chen Hao return, he told Shangguan Huofeng everything he had seen, point by point.

Hearing the news, Shangguan Huofeng was somewhat shocked.

Because Chen Hao's strength had improved too quickly.

However, remembering that Chen Hao possessed an SSS-grade ability, Shangguan Huofeng suddenly felt that this matter was quite reasonable. ===== CHAPTER 458 =====
