Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 963: Chapter 962: Jumping Clown

When the words ’First Screen’ had fallen, Nan Qing lifted his proud head, ignored Su Han’s gaze, turned around directly, and headed toward the second screen.

”Boom!”

As Nan Qing turned, an astonishing crimson light instantly erupted from behind the first Light Barrier. That light was especially conspicuous in the dead of night, like a brilliant sun in the darkness, extremely dazzling.

Standing in that crimson light, clad in battle armor, Nan Qing stepped out, and his dazzling demeanor made countless people at the scene nearly die with excitement.

”He broke through! He really broke through!”

”It’s only been ten days, and he’s already broken through the first Light Barrier. The monthly record is truly shattered.”

”One screen broken, crimson light welcoming... This saying is indeed true!”

”Unfortunately, I’ve failed twice quickly upon entering. If there comes a day I can be like the Holy Spirit King, welcomed by the boundless crimson light of the Ancient Divine Mountain, that would be such an awe-inspiring scene.”

...

As Nan Qing entered the second Light Barrier, the crowd remained filled with admiration, envy, respect, and awe.

However, Su Han’s brow furrowed slightly at this moment.

It wasn’t just him; Xuanyuan Wuqing and Bai Ling were both frowning, a hint of anger on their faces.

”What, is Nan Qing challenging you?”

Bai Ling complained, ”He only managed to possess the Holy Spirit King through the Supreme Pass, gaining such power to break through the first Light Barrier so quickly, yet turned around to challenge you. I used to think he was just a bit arrogant, but now it seems he’s completely dismissive! Are these so-called super geniuses always this detestable?”

”Not really.”

Su Han smiled calmly and said to Bai Ling, ”Aren’t you a super genius of the Holy Spirit Palace yourself? I don’t find you particularly annoying.”

”That’s not what I meant!”

Bai Ling huffed, ”You still have the nerve to tease me? That guy is blatantly challenging you. I’m not instigating anything; everyone understands that his words clearly meant he could break through the first Light Barrier in ten days. Can you?”

”Exactly, Bai Ling is standing up for you, and here you are, acting indifferent.” Xuanyuan Wuqing also stood up for Bai Ling.

”This is just the beginning, and you’re already defending?” Su Han teased.

”Hehe...” Xuanyuan Wuqing chuckled foolishly.

Bai Ling directly slapped him on the head, ”All you know is laughing foolishly. What are you thinking? Think I don’t know? Stop pretending to be a good guy here. I’m not blind, go act with other women; I won’t fall for your tricks.”

”Hahaha...” Su Han burst into laughter, realizing his flattery backfired.

Xuanyuan Wuqing held his head with a face full of grievance, clenching his teeth even more as Su Han laughed, and chose to keep his mouth shut.

Helping anyone draws a beating, so it’s better to keep quiet.

”You don’t laugh either!”

Bai Ling turned to Su Han and snorted, ”Can’t you see countless eyes around watching you? This bastard Nan Qing is quite calculating; with just a simple sentence, he has made you the center of attention. When his followers look at you, I can feel a chill.”

”It’s okay, let them be.” Su Han said indifferently.

”Wow, you have such an immortal demeanor...”

Bai Ling’s eyes sparkled with stars at first, then rolled dramatically, saying, ”With your immortal style, why don’t you just ascend and die already.”

Su Han glanced at Xuanyuan Wuqing, sighed, and said, ”Take care of your wife. How dare she speak to me, Lord Su Zun, this way?”

”Okay!”

Xuanyuan Wuqing immediately turned and prepared to say something to Bai Ling, but when he saw her murderous glare, he shrank back and didn’t dare let out a fart.

The three had now become true friends. Back on the Dragon Martial Continent, due to Su Han’s numerous legendary feats, Bai Ling and Xuanyuan Wuqing regarded him as a superior elder, not daring to overstep, but their interactions over time had made them realize Su Han, despite his strength, was of the same generation.

With similar personalities, they naturally became friends. Otherwise, Bai Ling and Xuanyuan Wuqing wouldn’t have dared to joke around so unconstrainedly with Su Han.

As for Su Han, while he seemed unconcerned with Nan Qing’s repeated provocations, in reality, his patience with him was wearing thin.

...

A month later, the crowd erupted into an uproar again, solely because Nan Qing had already emerged from the second Light Barrier.

From the commotion, Su Han learned that Nan Qing had broken the record again. Before Nan Qing, the fastest person took a full three months to emerge from the second Light Barrier, while Nan Qing only took a month.

This time, the crimson light was behind, and the orange light was ahead. The endless dazzling light enveloped Nan Qing. He stood there, truly like a radiant Jin Yang, making the entire Heaven and Earth lose its color.

Before entering the third Light Barrier, Nan Qing turned to look at Su Han once more, the corner of his mouth lifting into a smile, and said plainly, ”Second Screen!”

After he spoke, he entered the third Light Barrier directly.

His words caused numerous eyes around to suddenly focus on Su Han, especially those of his followers. The previous chilliness in their eyes subtly turned into murderous intent.

”Who is this person? Looking at the Holy Spirit King, he doesn’t seem to get along with him.”

”I know him, he’s King Qinghong from the Long Wind Empire on the Shanhai Pass side, one of the five founding generals of the Long Wind Empire.”

”It’s him? I’ve heard that several years ago, the Long Wind Empire was almost destroyed. It was he who led the remaining forces of the Long Wind Empire to fight a desperate battle, outnumbered, and using grand strategies to break up the alliance of the Ming’an Empire, Fenghao Empire, and the other Four Great Empires. They almost annihilated the twelve million troops of these Four Great Empires, quite impressive.”

”So what? The Long Wind Empire is just a small country with barely over ten million troops combined. How dare he call himself a ’king’ in front of the Holy Spirit King? In my opinion, he’s nothing.”

”True enough, the Holy Spirit King is a great general of the Fire God Empire and ranks among the top ten in strength in the entire Eastern Domain. How could he have such ants in his eyes?”

”Hahaha, overestimating himself, daring to offend even the Holy Spirit King, this guy won’t live long.”

Amidst the unabashed contempt and disdain, Su Han remained calm, while Xuanyuan Wuqing and Bai Ling looked extremely upset.
