Omnipotent Husband System

Hao Ren waited in the hall, with his eyes closed as the people worked. Two days passed very quickly and the young man watched everyone complete the tasks that he assigned them. Yin came over in the evening of the second day and sat down beside him with her head resting on his shoulder.

The girl had always been affectionate with Hao Ren, but these days, after he accepted her as his daughter and not a spirit beast, this display has become very frequent. Hao Ren asked, "Yin, are you okay?"

Yin nodded with a humm and said, "That guy has no such token, his jade token depicts a cluster of needles."

Tang Zhen was sitting across them. These guys were cultivators and once they immersed in meditation they would not care about moving around for ages let alone a couple of hours. She sighed and said, "The hidden peak is a notorious bunch."

Hao Ren smirked and said, "Did your daughter tell you about her status? Are you calling her notorious?"

The people from the hidden peak were actually trained to be the assets for the Tang sect in case they suffer a war like they did in the past. Hao Mei was the grand elder of the Hidden peak, and she was responsible for the fail safe plan and thus had less boundations compared to the other peaks.

Yin said, "I cross checked with Violet the other day, she told me that they found out about the City Lord's real identity because they are also the members of the Hidden Peak, and Aunty Mei manages them all."

Hao Ren shivered and said, "I feel scared of Mei after thinking how many such disciples has she planted over the years."

Yin smiled and Tang Zhen asked, "What do you plan, tell me."

Hao Ren said, "After the pill formula of the Super Healing Pill is put out in the market, it would become a hit. The pill refiners will test and verify the credibility. Then they will go crazy to purchase the Purple King Gendorema, which does not exist in the market anymore. How much price hike would that mean? What would happen to the Xue Family, if I sell all of the stocks to the City Palace?

The economic shock might not be enough to impact, but it would throw them in a spiral and disrupt the smooth sailing pattern. The city lord will gain traction and we will take out the Xue Family, slowly weakening the alliance."

Tang Zhen nodded and asked, "What about the Liu Family?"

Hao Ren smiled and replied, "What if their spirit ships suddenly breakdown all at the same time?"

Tang Zhen rolled her eyes and said, "They will detect the foul play and come back at you, what else?"

Hao Ren leaned back in his chair and said, "Ma, you have any idea how many espionages I have done when I moved around the four nations? I am not a fool. Sit and enjoy."

Then he turned to look at Ye Si, and handed her the formula for the super healing pill. He said, "Give this to the seven colors. They will know how to plant it without getting caught or spied on. Also, tell them to wait for two more days to avoid suspicion. In the meantime, keep buying the Purple king Gendorema."

Ye Si nodded and she left. Yin took out a chess board and she began to play with Hao Ren. In the evening, Hao Ren would go over to the Crescent Moon Empire and spend some time with Han Lingshi. He kept asking Xiao Mei to develop a device that can be used for communication between the teams.

Two more days passed and on the evening of the third day, a rumor exploded. A middle-aged yet graceful woman was sitting inside a lavish hall, as she swirled a cup of tea in her hand. A young lady came inside the room abruptly, and said, "I took the liberty to mobilize people to investigate a rumor."

The lady asked, "What rumor is that?"

The young lady replied, "There has been murmurs that a formula of super healing pill has surfaced in the market, and by adding one uncommon ingredient the pill masters can control the reaction between other ingredients and increase the chances of crystallization from ten percent to eighty percent."

The middle-aged lady opened her eyes wide and then said, "Get a copy to me as soon as possible and call your father."

The young lady was the young miss of the Xue Family, Xue Jingyao, and the middle-aged lady was the matriarch of the family Lin Guying. The two of them handled the administration of the family matters together, while Xue Danchi, the head of the Xue family used his time and skill to produce pills.

Lin Guying was the person behind the rise of the pill making magnate of the Glacia City. They hired pill makers from outside and used benefits to retain them under their umbrella. The exposure created more pill refiners in the family, and at the moment, Xue family had twenty pill masters of all grades among them, along with seven guest elders. They produced twenty pill bottles, with each holding ten pills, on an average week.

This was why they were crazy rich and had connections to other cities. This was why they held a significant position in the alliance under Hao Tian. Xue Jingyao left the room, and the Xue Family began to pull the strings.

They found the formula in the morning, and almost at the same time, Hao Ren appeared at the gates of the city palace. Yin had told him that the City Lord was a Star annihilation realm expert, and had an easy going personality but in reality this man was very vindictive. The guards stopped him, but the young man revealed his realm and shocked them. When did such a young Star Annihilation realm expert existed in the city.

The people could tell his real age with ease. Hao Ren said, "I have a gift that the city lord would like very much, I wonder if he would accept it."

A calm voice sounded from inside the palace, "Since, Fellow Daoist has arrived at the door, why bother with formality? Please, come in."

Hao Ren walked inside, the city palace was like an ordinary fortress, surrounded by palace guards residence, in the center lay the main building where the city lord resided. Hao Ren found a middle-aged man standing at the door. He smiled and said, "I did not expect that the city lord would be receiving me personally."

The city lord smiled and said, "The show of power demanded me to stand up and move my old bones. So, fellow daoist, what are you looking for?"

Hao Ren cupped his fists to the man and said, "I am Hao Ren. I have come from the southern continent, and I have a close relation with someone you might know."

The middle-aged man raised his brows, and then looking around, he said, "Let us talk inside."

The two of them moved inside the palace and sat down in the living room, with a kettle of tea brewed by the city lord himself. Hao Ren took a sip and said, "Good tea."

The city lord faintly smiled and said, "I am Hua Teng. Shall we talk now?"

Hao Ren took out a scroll, and said, "Hao Mei, is my elder sister."

Hua Teng was shocked but then he nodded and asked, "What does the Grand Elder need?"

Hao Ren shook his head and said, "This particular region of the lower northern continent is commanded covertly by the Tang Sect of the eastern continent, but it is not that easy to do things for you, am I right?"

Hua Teng nodded and Hao Ren said, "For example, the Glacia City has three forces that are going crazy for power overtly and covertly. This scroll holds a formula for the super healing pill, derived and tested by me."

Hua Teng was surprised, and Hao Ren said, "Yes, you guessed it right, I am the one who caused ripples. Because I have some debt with the Hao Family of the Iron Fort City."

The city lord replied, "I understand what you mean, but why help me?"

Hao Ren replied calmly, "Because if I made any moves, I might end up leaving a trail of blood which is unnecessary. Also, your connection to the Tang Sect is somewhat influential to deter the Blood Tower as well, giving me time to deal with them. This is why I am helping you, plus do you hate power that much?"

Hua Teng chuckled and said, "Very well, I accept this formula."

Hao Ren then passed him a space ring and said, "This ring contains enough Purple King Gendorema to cover the entire city twice, use it well, and contact me if you need any aid in logistics or protection."

Hua Teng was shocked but he smiled and bowed as Hao Ren vanished from his place. He mumbled after Hao Ren's aura vanished from his perception, "This young man is scary."
