nZhou Hao naturally did not know that a group of grandmasters was searching for him.

nAfter killing the Iron Tooth Dragon Alligator, he directly left the Red Swamp Forest. However, he did not return to the defensive line of the Southern Station. Instead, he turned to the eastern defense line of the East Station.

nBoom.

nAt full speed, Zhou Hao was even faster than the fighter jet. The standard armor on his body had shattered, but the Black Tortoise Set had turned into a set of red armor.

nIn just dozens of minutes, he rushed all the way to the East Station's defense line gate.

nViolent airflow swept up.

nA terrifying blood essence pressure spread out.

nHowever, Zhou Hao still kept it controlled to a certain extent.

nThe fully armed soldiers at the defensive line of the base held their guns vigilantly. When they saw that it was a human figure, their expressions relaxed. Then, they saluted Zhou Hao and said,

"Welcome home.

"

nZhou Hao bowed respectfully.

"Thank you for your hard work, everyone.

"

nWith that said, he walked towards the heavy metal door of the base city.

nThe soldiers on both sides looked at Zhou Hao in admiration.

nTo dare to wander alone in the wilderness, his strength had to be at least at the master level.

nAfter entering the three main gates of the defensive line and seeing the brightly lit skyscrapers in the distance, Zhou Hao heaved a sigh of relief and a relaxed smile appeared on his face.

nAlthough his combat strength was formidable, he was constantly tense in the wilderness.

nOnly when they reached the city could he completely relax.

n

"Time to go home!

"

nThinking of his gains from entering the wilderness this time, he felt very happy. Whether it was the rare-level items obtained from opening the mystery box or the materials obtained from killing demon beasts, he had gained a lot.

nWith a light tap of his toes, he disappeared from his original spot like a gust of wind.

nNot long after, two figures landed at the entrance of the East Station.

nThey were Commander Zhao and He Biao, two grandmasters. They had circled the Southern Station, the Western Station, and the Northern Station respectively, but they had not received any news of the grandmaster's return.

n

"This is the final stop. If there's still nothing…

" He Biao sighed, losing confidence in his previous judgment.

nCommander Zhao ignored He Biao and instead asked the guard,

"Did you see a lone martial artist return?

"

nThe soldier hurriedly replied,

"Yes. About five minutes ago, a lone martial artist in red armor entered the city from our station.

"

nCommander Zhao and He Biao's eyes lit up.

nHe Biao hurriedly described Zhou Hao's approximate height and size.

nThe soldier nodded repeatedly.

"That sounds about right.

"

nCommander Zhao and He Biao immediately laughed out loud.

n

"As long as we can confirm that the other party is in the city, it'll be easy to find him.

" Commander Zhao smiled.

nHe Biao nodded and said,

"That's right. Furthermore, that grandmaster took the corpse of the Iron Tooth Dragon Alligator. He'll have to sell the materials eventually, right?

"

nCommander Zhao was in a good mood.

"President He, your Martial Artist Union is good at finding information. If there's any news, remember to inform me.

"

n

"Definitely.

"

n…

nYang Garden Residence, suite 21.

nWhen Zhou Hao returned, it was already 8: 30 pm.

nUsually, at this time, his parents would have already taken the subway back. On a special day like today, it was likely they had already returned to move into their new residence.

nBut when Zhou Hao entered his new home, he noticed that the living room and bedroom were all empty.

nAfter taking a bath and changing into a clean set of clothes, he took out the Scarlet Blood Vine and the Rhino Horn and placed them by the bed in the bedroom.

nHis parents had not returned. They must have been working overtime.

nAfter all, they couldn't get off work early when they were under such pressure.

n

"I'll sell some materials and then convince my parents to quit. They've struggled for half their lives. It's about time for them to enjoy themselves.

" The reason why Zhou Hao worked hard and entered the wilderness area was mainly to reduce the pressure on his parents.

nHe browsed on his phone for a while and only heard sounds outside at 10 pm.

nSoon, Zhou Xueguo and Wang Shuyun dragged their tired bodies to the living room.

n

"Dad, Mom, you're back so late!

" Zhou Hao walked out of the bedroom.

nZhou Xueguo threw his coat on the sofa and smiled.

"The company has added quite a few orders recently. We had to work overtime.

"

nWang Shuyun said,

"Honey, I'll go take a shower first. You can shower later.

"

nZhou Xueguo nodded and said,

"Alright, I'll watch television.

"

nSeeing this, Zhou Hao took advantage of his mother's absence and pulled Zhou Xueguo to the bedroom.

n

"Son, what's the matter? Can't we talk in the living room?

" Zhou Xueguo asked curiously.

nHowever, Zhou Hao said,

"Dad, I know what's going on.

"

nZhou Xueguo did not react for a moment.

"What do you mean you know?

"

n

"About your work,

" Zhou Hao whispered.

nZhou Xueguo's expression changed, and he sighed.

"Xiao Hao, don't blame your mother for this. Don't worry, I'll resolve it well. You can focus on studying and training in school.

"

nZhou Hao did not reply.. Instead, he turned around and took the Scarlet Blood Vine and the Rhino Horn from beside the bed.
