Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 57: Chapter 57: Sect Master’s Disciple?

When Su Han finished speaking, immediately numerous scornful looks were cast his way.

Gamble again?

Gamble my ass!

They had all experienced Su Han’s pretentious and brazen attitude, and no matter how many Dragon Veins Su Han had revealed, they would never gamble with him again.

“I’ll bet with you!”

Just then, someone suddenly stood up—it was Chen Feng!

As soon as he spoke, countless gazes fell upon him.

“You want to bet with me?”

Su Han looked at Chen Feng with great interest, “Bet on what? What I just mentioned?”

“No.”

Chen Feng said coldly, “If I lose, I’ll avoid you whenever I see you; if you lose, you do the same when you see me!”

“Where does this guy get such confidence?” Bai Yu muttered quietly.

“The number of Dragon Veins that Chen Feng has unlocked will definitely not be less than mine, and might even be more.”

Xiao Yuhui looked at Chen Feng and said, “This person is originally a prodigy of the Chen Family, but exactly how many Dragon Veins he has unlocked, no one knows. The key point is, even though Su Han has already displayed such formidable strength, he still dares to bet with Su Han, which shows his high level of confidence.”

“Indeed, the magic Su Han previously used is a kind of Technique we have never heard of. But the third stage tests Dragon Power, which comes from the number of Dragon Veins unlocked. You can’t use Dragon Technique, nor can you use any other kind of Techniques. It’s probably for this reason that Chen Feng dares to bet with Su Han,” Bai Yu said.

Xiao Yuhui did not say anything more, just silently mourning for Chen Feng in her heart.

Others were unaware, but she knew that Su Han had unlocked a whole twenty Dragon Veins; even if Chen Feng had more, could he surpass Su Han?

“It seems you’re very confident,”

Su Han said with a faint smile, “But that wager is too small. Do you dare to bet something bigger?”

Chen Feng’s heart skipped a beat, and he frowned, “What is the bet?”

“If I lose, I’ll give you my head, but if you lose… the Chen Family will be expelled from Yuanshan County!”

Su Han’s voice wasn’t loud, but every word struck Chen Feng’s heart.

The others also heard it, causing an uproar.

The stakes Su Han proposed were anything but small; betting life itself required absolute confidence, or else why would he say such a thing?

Chen Feng’s face went from dark to uncertain. With such high stakes, he truly dared not decide on his own.

“Don’t dare?”

Su Han shook his head disdainfully, “If you don’t dare, that’s fine. Let’s just stick to Gold Coins. Your idea of avoiding each other doesn’t hold any real benefit.”

“I’ll bet with you!”

Chen Feng clenched his teeth, “If I lose, the Chen Family will be expelled; if you lose, you give up your head!”

“Good!”

A glint flashed in Su Han’s eyes.

…

The location of the third stage was almost at the mountain’s peak and also on a platform.

However, on this platform, there was no Blood Pool present, only two huge stone pillars.

Around these stone pillars, light flickered, and above was something akin to an illusory screen.

By the time Su Han and the others arrived there, many people had already gathered.

Occupying the center was a middle-aged man who appeared to be just over forty, but his entire being exuded an astonishing oppressive aura.

Surrounding him stood a dozen people, all of whom were Elders of the Cold Cloud Sect.

These were the true Elders; even Ping Yuzi, the so-called Chief Inner Sect Grand Elder, could not compare with them.

In terms of Cultivation Base, the strength of these Elders was at least at the Dragon Pill Realm!

“We pay our respects to the Sect Master and all the Elders,” they said.

Upon their arrival, Xiao Yuhui and the others immediately greeted the middle-aged man with a salute.

For this middle-aged man was none other than the Sect Master of the Cold Cloud Sect, the formidable Ling Qinghai who had just broken through to the Dragon God Realm!

Within a hundred thousand miles of this territory, Ling Qinghai could be said to be the absolute overlord. The sight of him seemed to take the breath away from the candidates, as admiration, respect, and worship surged from within their hearts.

They had not expected that at this third trial, they would actually get to meet the Cold Cloud Sect Master.

“The Sect has just had a breakthrough, and I had some free time, so I decided to come and watch. Do not overthink it, just do your best,” Ling Qinghai said with a slight smile.

As he spoke, his gaze swept over the crowd. Those who were looked at trembled as if they were frozen in place.

Finally, Ling Qinghai’s gaze settled on Su Han.

“I hear you fused with Seventh-Order Beast Blood?” Ling Qinghai suddenly asked.

“Mhm,” Su Han nodded nonchalantly.

“Not bad at all. In the Cold Cloud Sect, it has been nearly a decade since someone has managed to fuse with Sixth Order Beast Blood, let alone Seventh. It’s quite unexpected.”

Ling Qinghai pondered for a moment then suddenly asked, “Would you wish to become my disciple?”

As soon as these words were spoken, there was a sensation!

All eyes turned to Su Han, filled with envy and jealousy.

To be personally asked by the Sect Master to become a Disciple was extremely rare in the history of the Cold Cloud Sect. Even Xiao Yuhui was only taken as a Disciple after she joined the Sect.

And here before the third trial had even begun, the Sect Master wanted to take Su Han as his Disciple?

Did this not mean that regardless of how many Dragon Veins Su Han opened, or his ranking in the third trial, he was destined to be taken under the Sect Master’s wing?

Most crucially, Ling Qinghai’s current strength was that of the Dragon God Realm!

Chen Feng clenched his fists tightly, his face turning red with an unbearable sense of frustration rising within him.

He believed everything was because of Su Han. If Su Han were not part of this, he would be the one becoming Ling Qinghai’s disciple!

“Just wait. Once I defeat you in the third trial, you’ll owe me your head, and the title of Sect Master’s Disciple will be mine!” Chen Feng roared inwardly.

“Su Han, what are you standing around for? Answer quickly!”

Xiao Yuhui tugged at Su Han’s clothes and whispered, “This is a golden opportunity! If you become the Sect Master’s Disciple, the resources you’ll get will be no less than if you were in a Seventh-Rate, or even Sixth-Rate Sect, and now that the Sect Master has broken through to the Dragon God Realm, his cultivation is incredibly profound. If you accept, even if the Liang Family learns that you killed Liang Shaohui, they would not dare to touch you.”

After pondering for a moment, Su Han shook his head and said, “I joined the Cold Cloud Sect merely wishing to become a Guest Elder, not a Disciple. If the Sect Master wishes to take on a Disciple, he should choose someone else.”

“What?!”

“He actually refused?”

“Damn, has he lost his mind? That’s the Sect Master!”

“To refuse such a rare opportunity and to have the wild ambition of becoming a Guest Elder of the Cold Cloud Sect? That’s sheer arrogance!”

All eyes turned to Su Han, filled with disbelief.

To refuse such an incredible offer? That was a chance to be a Disciple of the Sect Master of the Dragon God Realm!

If he had accepted, wouldn’t he have the run of this hundred thousand-mile territory, with no one daring to provoke him?
