Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 546: Chapter 543 Grudges

In those memories, Su Han saw countless fierce and monstrous figures.

These figures did not exist in Di Luo’s world, but in the Dragon Martial Continent!

Densely packed, they were innumerable. To say there were tens of thousands would be an understatement, there were at least tens of billions, if not hundreds of billions!

Di Luo had once faced an Extraterritorial Demon whose figure was a thousand feet tall, respectfully calling it the ’Great Demon God’.

Comparable to the Dragon Emperor Realm of the Dragon Martial Continent, this was the only Great Demon God Di Luo had encountered after coming to the Dragon Martial Continent.

This Great Demon God, named ’Qingluo,’ had a single star on its forehead.

Di Luo once led the Demon Army across the southern part of the Dragon Martial Continent, leaving a trail of slaughter in his wake. No matter whether they were cultivators or mortals, powerful warriors or the old, weak, sick, and disabled, none who were seen were spared.

And that was not merely about killing.

Some people were torn to death by the Extraterritorial Demons, their flesh and blood entirely devoured, as if the flesh of the people of Dragon Martial Continent was of an exceptional taste to the Extraterritorial Demons.

When the Extraterritorial Demons swept through, no corpses were left behind, only countless skeletons remains.

Those skeletal remains, spread out in masses, with countless tormented souls screaming between heaven and earth.

It wasn’t just Di Luo; wherever the Extraterritorial Demons went, the result was the same.

Human and deity alike were enraged!

”Extraterritorial Demons!!!”

Su Han’s eyes shone with an icy light as he spoke each word deliberately.

Even though he had killed enough in his past life to stack into mountains, even though he had climbed to the summit step by step over endless bodies, he... never wantonly slaughtered the innocent!

Those he slew had it coming, those he wiped out deserved it!

Unlike the Extraterritorial Demons who devoured human flesh and tore apart souls, Su Han had never done such things!

He already detested these Extraterritorial Demons, and now, seeing everything that had happened in the memories, Su Han’s impulse to kill was earth-shattering.

He swiftly tucked the Blood Crystal away, his figure flickered as he headed towards Ruyi Sect.

...

At this moment, Gu Qingtian and Gu Yun Lei had already returned to Ruyi Sect.

When the disciples of Ruyi Sect looked at them, their eyes were almost filled with a certain expression, despair.

When the Clan Guardian Light Curtain collapsed earlier, Gu Yun Lei and Gu Qingtian were the first to flee, utterly indifferent to the life or death of these disciples.

And before that, in the battle between Phoenix Sect and Ruyi Sect, including the Loose Cultivators, no fewer than two hundred thousand had perished.

But Gu Qingtian had not shown himself from beginning to end.

Later, when the Clan Guardian Light Curtain shattered, Gu Qingtian and Gu Yun Lei were among the first to run away; the so-called Sect Master let the numerous disciples of Ruyi Sect utterly lose heart.

They all wondered why they had joined Ruyi Sect in the first place?

On the Phoenix Sect’s side, they had already ceased hostilities completely, and even after hearing Gu Qingtian and Gu Yun Lei’s explanations, they still did not believe them.

The only person they trusted was one, and that was Sect Master, Su Han!

As long as the Sect Master returned, with just one command, they would still rush to battle the disciples of Ruyi Sect without hesitation.

”Where has the Sect Master gone?”

Shangguan Mingxin narrowed her eyes, fixing her gaze on Gu Qingtian’s Primordial Spirit.

Gu Qingtian had told her the whole truth, but without seeing Su Han himself, Shangguan Mingxin could not be at ease.

”Just wait, Sect Master Su will arrive soon,” Gu Qingtian sighed.

Looking at the ten thousand Phoenix Sect Disciples, he suddenly felt that his leadership as a Sect Master was a failure.

When the words ’Su Han’ appeared before these Phoenix Sect disciples, there was an instant fervor in their eyes, a fervor willing to die for him!

In the eyes of the Ruyi Sect disciples, all Gu Qingtian evoked was an emotion called disappointment.

”I... am sorry to you all...”

Gu Qingtian spoke, looking down at the corpses laying on the ground, and even though he was a Primordial Spirit, tears seemed about to flow.

Hearing Gu Qingtian’s words, those Ruyi Sect disciples were all visibly shaken, yet none spoke up.

They were cultivators, with minds that worked far quicker than those of ordinary people. They couldn’t discern whether Gu Qingtian’s current state was genuine repentance or just a pretense.

But whether it was true repentance or feigned, it couldn’t prevent them from wanting to leave the Ruyi Sect.

”This person, for you.”

Gu Yunlei tossed Han Mei towards Shangguan Mingxin.

Han Mei’s pretty face changed dramatically, but not a trace of panic showed.

She knew that in the hands of Shangguan Mingxin, her death was certain; any additional fear was pointless.

Meanwhile, Shangguan Mingxin and the other Starry Divine Guards had awakened from their enlightenment, each having gained significant insights. However, this place was not suitable for extended seclusion, and they intended to delve deeper into their enlightenment back at the Phoenix Sect.

Upon seeing Han Mei thrown towards her, Shangguan Mingxin was slightly taken aback, then sneered at Gu Yunlei, ”You can bear to part with her?”

Gu Yunlei gave a bitter smile and shook his head without saying more.

Shangguan Mingxin narrowed her eyes, sensing that Gu Yunlei seemed to have undergone some changes, although she couldn’t pinpoint precisely what they were.

”Of the Shangguan and Han Families, only you and I remain. Now, with your death, it’s still my Shangguan Clan that wins!”

A flash of killing intent in her eyes, Shangguan Mingxin flicked her finger, and immediately the longsword flew towards Han Mei.

Han Mei did not dodge; she clearly understood that if Shangguan Mingxin wanted to kill her, there was no escape.

”Bitch, I only regret that I won’t have the chance to flay you alive!” Han Mei’s face was filled with venom.

”If we’re really talking about who deserves to be called a ’bitch’, perhaps you’re more fitting of those words,” Shangguan Mingxin said calmly.

”If there’s an afterlife, I, Han Mei, will surely...”

”Pu-chi!”

Before she could finish her sentence, the longsword pierced straight through her body.

”There’s no afterlife for you,” Shangguan Mingxin said indifferently.

An illusory shadow, appearing lost, as if devoid of memory, flew out from within Han Mei’s body.

It was not the Primordial Spirit, but Han Mei’s soul.

Shangguan Mingxin looked up at it, and after a long while, she finally let out a soft sigh, retracting her longsword.

In the end, she didn’t have it in her to completely obliterate Han Mei.

”The feud between our two families has persisted for so many years and has finally ended...” There was sorrow in Shangguan Mingxin’s eyes.

She claimed that the Shangguan Clan had won, but that was just talk.

Of the two great clans, only Shangguan Mingxin remained. She would have preferred not to have such a so-called victory.

”Thank you.”

In the end, Shangguan Mingxin glanced at Gu Yunlei and uttered two words.

”It is I, who should thank you for your mercy,” Gu Yunlei replied with a self-deprecating smile and shook his head.

At that moment, a streak of light came soaring from afar, drawing a pitch-black trajectory in the void, and finally stopped before everyone present.

”Sect Master!”

Upon seeing Su Han, all the members of the Phoenix Sect showed reverent and fervent expressions, hastily bowing and speaking out.

This scene once again pierced Gu Qingtian’s heart with pain.
