Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 1: Chapter 1 Forced Marriage

“Family Head, just let Su Han marry the Second Miss of Xiao Family!”

“Yes, Family Head, this is the only chance we have now to save our family’s situation!”

“The First Miss of Xiao Family is now an Outer Sect Disciple of Cold Cloud Sect, with extremely high talent. It’s said that she has already cultivated eight Dragon Veins and will soon be promoted to an Inner Sect Disciple.”

“We all know that a Martial Artist at the pinnacle of the Dragon Vein Realm has at most ten, and Xiao Yuhui, so young, has already cultivated eight. Her achievements are just around the corner. Now, Xiao Family is also rising step by step, relying on Xiao Yuhui’s prestige. If we can hold on to this high branch, our Su Family can surely overcome this predicament!”

“If Su Han can marry the Second Miss of Xiao Family, he will be our Su Family’s savior!”

…

On the Dragon Martial Continent, within the Dongling Kingdom, Yuanshan County, Su Family.

In a vast hall, debates were rising and falling in waves.

Dozens of people were standing inside the hall, those who had just spoken were all elders over fifty years old. From their attire, they were all clearly Elders.

At the main seat, a burly middle-aged man was sitting with a furrowed brow, his gaze occasionally sweeping over a young man below, filled with helplessness and sighs.

The young man was named Su Han.

To be precise, this ‘Su Han’ was not the former ‘Su Han.’

He of the Su Family was just an eighteen-year-old youth.

However, the current Su Han had lived for nearly a billion years, seated in the Holy Domain, holding sway over the world as the Ancient Demon Dragon Emperor!

With his previous life’s cultivation base, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say he was unmatched under the heavens. Unfortunately, Su Han went mad in his attempt to break free from the Heavenly Dao’s shackles, to stand alongside heaven and earth, share longevity with the starry sky.

Originally, he thought he would be completely annihilated, soul and body, but unexpectedly, he was reborn into Su Han of the Su Family!

Realizing that all his cultivation was gone, Su Han felt briefly lost but then quickly became invigorated again.

What’s cultivation worth?

As long as he had life, and with the memories of his former life, he believed that one day, he would reach those heights again, or even truly breakthrough!

At the moment, Su Han was sitting there, his eyes slightly closed, as if he didn’t hear the Elders’ debate.

Behind him, a group of young men and women were gloating over his situation, with sneers curling at the corners of their mouths from time to time.

“Humph, not talking now, are you?”

“Previously, as a genius, you looked down on us, eyes almost on the sky. Now that you’ve become a waste, you don’t even dare to let out a fart?”

“He deserves to be like this. Before, when we talked to him about cultivation, he was always dismissive. Now, he has to take a detour when he sees us.”

Although these words were spoken softly, they still reached Su Han’s ears and entered the hearts of everyone in the hall.

“Family Head!”

The Second Family Master, Su Yunchen, stood up again and said with cupped fists, “What we say is all for the good of the family, I implore the Family Head to agree!”

“I concur with what the Second Family Master said!”

The Third Family Master, Su Yunpeng, also stood up and said, “In fact, with the position of our Su Family, the Xiao Family wouldn’t normally pay any attention to us. However, for some reason, their Second Miss, Xiao Yuran, insists on marrying no one but Su Han. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for our Su Family.”

“Su Han, since she likes you so much, just marry her,” said a young man in white clothing, sneering at Su Han. “Actually, with your current situation, it’s uncertain whether you can find a wife in the future. Wouldn’t it be better to take this opportunity and give our Su Family a chance to turn things around?”

This young man was named Su Mingxuan, the son of the Second Family Master, Su Yunchen.

The Su Family Head, Su Han’s father Su Yunming, had three other brothers.

The First Family Master Su Yunlie, Second Family Master Su Yunchen, Third Family Master Su Yunpeng, and lastly, the Family Head Su Yunming.

Although Su Yunming, as the Head of the Family, held the real power, matters concerning the life and death of the family still needed to be discussed with others.

Ever since the previous Head of the Family bestowed the position to Su Yunming, Su Yunchen and Su Yunpeng harbored resentment, constantly opposing Su Yunming.

This time, taking advantage of the Xiao Family’s forced marriage issue, Su Yunchen and Su Yunpeng would naturally take the opportunity to add insult to injury.

And their reasoning was very sound—they were concerned about the life and death of the family!

This point left no room for Su Yunming to argue.

“That’s right, Su Han, although rumors say that Xiao Yuran isn’t as good-looking as her sister and is in a completely different league, with the current position of the Xiao Family, you should count yourself lucky to be able to marry her!”

Su Yunpeng’s son, Su Minghui, also spoke up, but his words were laced with unmistakable mockery.

Everyone in Yuanshan County knew there was a Second Miss of Xiao Family named Xiao Yuran, but aside from the Xiao Family, very few people had actually seen her.

Over time, people began to assume Xiao Yuran must be unspeakably ugly, too hideous to be seen in public.

This rumor quickly spread throughout Yuanshan County, but the Xiao Family never came forward to clarify.

One could imagine, even the Xiao Family themselves seemed to acknowledge it, just how ugly must Xiao Yuran be?

Laughter erupted from all around, almost entirely from the younger generation of the Su Family.

As one of the Four Great Families in Yuanshan County, the Su Family boasted thousands of members, with hundreds in the younger generation alone. When Su Han used to rise like the Day Sun with his exceptional talent, they had to bow their heads in his presence.

Now, with Su Han’s cultivation gone awry, his meridians completely severed, and all his cultivation lost, they relentlessly kicked him while he was down and added fuel to the fire. Such is human nature.

However, for Su Han, it was as if he couldn’t hear the derisive laughter.

What did it matter if his meridians were severed? What did it matter if all his cultivation was lost?

It was just as he, Su Han, would have wished!

This damn Su Family, what lousy cultivation techniques were they practicing? Even if Su Han’s meridians weren’t severed and he hadn’t lost his cultivation, he would have severed his meridians and destroyed his own cultivation!

As the once-mighty Ancient Demon Dragon Emperor, would Su Han ever value this meager cultivation?

Using the ‘Demon Dragon Emperor Technique’ to cultivate on top of such a petty cultivation base would be an insult to the name of the number one technique in the Holy Domain!

“Su Han, everyone is asking you a question. At least give us an answer,” Second Family Master Su Yunchen turned to look at Su Han.

Seeing him directing the attention towards Su Han, everyone’s gaze immediately fell on Su Han.

Su Han stretched lazily, barely opening his eyes, gave Su Yunchen an indifferent glance, and then leaned back again, as if he hadn’t heard anything.

“Su Han!”

Su Yunchen’s face immediately turned gloomy as he barked, “Don’t you have any manners? Do you not know the meaning of respect for teachers and the Dao?”

What a joke. If Su Han were still the genius of old, Su Yunchen himself would naturally not want to offend him, but now, Su Han had become a worthless person with no cultivation left, and still dared to disregard him?

“Respect for teachers and the Dao?”

Hearing Su Yunchen’s words, Su Han finally opened his eyes.

“Then tell me, are you my teacher, or are you my Dao?”
