Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 964: Chapter 963: Disdainful?

Su Han truly doesn’t care about everything Nan Qing has done. Here, his identity is indeed not as good as Nan Qing’s, and his strength is worlds apart from Nan Qing.

But what is this place? This is the Holy Domain of the Demon Immortal, from the Archaic Era!

This is just a place of trial for them!

Whether it’s Su Han or Nan Qing, they will eventually return to Dragon Martial Continent, where they will regain their true strength and identity.

And when that time comes, what will Nan Qing be in Su Han’s eyes?

Perhaps in Nan Qing’s view, he has talent, his strength is formidable, and he can also kill Wang Mo. If he had help from the One Slash Palace, Xuanyuan Clan, and others, he could likewise escape from the hands of many Dragon Emperors.

In Nan Qing’s heart, he sees himself as no worse than Su Han!

But in Su Han’s heart, he merely sees Nan Qing as an ant.

Just a clown, before he gets close enough to bite, Su Han truly isn’t interested in dealing with him.

”What are you thinking?”

Su Han looked at Xuanyuan Wuqing and Bai Ling and laughed, ”I’m not angry, why should you be? It’s just a clown, after all. His strength is formidable, ranked top ten in the Eastern Domain, a dignified Holy Spirit King of the Fire God Empire. Just a flick of his finger could destroy us, couldn’t it?”

”I just feel indignant!”

Bai Ling had lost her previous admiration and instead said, ”What is Nan Qing? He only has that little bit of talent! On Dragon Martial Continent, without the protection of One Slash Palace and Nan Gong Duanchen as his master, would he dare act high and mighty with you? He really takes himself for a big shot!”

Xuanyuan Wuqing added, ”If he could achieve what you have, create so many miracles through his own efforts, and rise step by step to where he is now, then he would indeed have the qualifications to challenge you. But I genuinely don’t understand, where does his confidence come from? Is it because of One Slash Palace’s protection? Or because of his bit of talent? Honestly, talent is something that everyone seems to have.”

Su Han couldn’t help but chuckle, Xuanyuan Wuqing’s words were indeed true. As leaders of Xuanyuan Clan and Holy Spirit Palace, Xuanyuan Wuqing and Bai Ling naturally had undeniable talent, and had the right to say this.

”Forget it, no need to bother with him, let’s just see how many Light Barriers he can get through.” Su Han laughed.

Bai Ling’s eyes twinkled, and she suddenly said, ”Su Zun, how about... you compete with him?”

”Compete in what?” Su Han didn’t immediately understand.

”See who can get through more Light Barriers!”

Bai Ling said, somewhat excitedly, ”These people around don’t know your true identities, naturally they look down on you. But I know exactly who you are. Nan Qing, from the beginning to the end, in terms of strength, talent, or appearance... cough cough, let’s set appearance aside, this Ancient Divine Mountain has nothing to do with looks, right? I think...”

”Stop, stop, stop.”

Su Han gave Bai Ling a displeased look, ”Though Nan Qing is reportedly handsome, I’m not bad either, am I? You’re making it sound like I’m so ugly I can’t find a wife.”

Bai Ling awkwardly laughed, but then Xuanyuan Wuqing chimed in, ”You know, when it comes to looks, Nan Qing really leaves you twenty-eight streets behind. Even I have to admit this. Regarding appearance, it’s something our parents give us, we can change it, but ultimately it’s not our true self, right? I wonder about your parents...”

”Smack!”

Before he could finish, Su Han smacked him on the head.

”No wonder Bai Ling is willing to hit you, you’ve got a mouth that deserves a beating.” Su Han said.

”Right, right, right...”

Bai Ling nodded thoughtfully, yet before she could continue, Su Han said, ”Right my foot, I think you pair are two of a kind, bound to bicker in the future.”

”Let’s leave that aside for now.”

Bai Ling grumbled, then continued, ”In all seriousness, I genuinely believe you’re far superior to Nan Qing in every aspect. Besides, isn’t the difficulty of these nine Light Barriers of the Ancient Divine Mountain not determined by strength itself? If Nan Qing is strong here, the difficulty is naturally high for him. If you’re weaker, then the difficulty is reduced. Compete with him, I think you’ll surely win!”

”Exactly!”

Xuanyuan Wuqing also said, ”Compete well against him and curb his arrogance. I really can’t stand his conceited look; if we were on Dragon Martial Continent, and he dared act like this, I... I might actually not be able to beat him.”

Su Han: ”...”

Bai Ling: ”...”

With these two living treasures around, Su Han sometimes feels pretty good, and given Su Han’s long life, he can only make friends with people who are free of ulterior motives.

”Comparing has no real use. Remember, whether on Dragon Martial Continent or here, what matters is one’s own strength.”

Su Han glanced at the two again and said, ”All opportunities and fortunes are in your own hands. Heaven might give you the opportunity, but it definitely won’t hand you the fruit directly. Do you understand what I’m saying?”

The two nodded with half understanding, Xuanyuan Wuqing said, ”I get it, you’re basically unwilling to compete with him!”

Su Han: ”...”

Bai Ling then said, ”I understand your point; one must have strength to have the capital for arrogance, right?”

”Your wife is smart.”

Su Han looked at Xuanyuan Wuqing, then said, ”If Nan Qing wants to be arrogant, let him be arrogant. The higher he flies, the harder he falls. When he finally gets his comeuppance, he’ll realize that all this so-called arrogance is just laughable.”

”Forget it then, I thought you could curb his arrogance.” Xuanyuan Wuqing said.

Su Han shook his head, saying no more.

...

Half a year after Nan Qing entered the third Light Barrier, his figure emerged once again.

This time, however, he seemed somewhat fatigued, yet the arrogance on his face hadn’t diminished one bit.

This time he didn’t break any records for emerging from the third Light Barrier, as the fastest record holder previously did it in three months, while Nan Qing took half a year.

”Tsk tsk, from the look on his face, it seems he didn’t have a great time inside the third Light Barrier.” Xuanyuan Wuqing said, delighting in Nan Qing’s misfortune.

”Serves him right.” Bai Ling added more simply.

As they spoke, Nan Qing predictably looked over at them again, once more fixing his gaze on Su Han, and as before, he stretched out those few provocative fingers.

”Third level!”

The bright yellow glow spread out from in front of him as he turned around.

Amidst the roaring sound, ten steps made entirely of yellow light appeared before Nan Qing.

Nan Qing lifted his foot, looked at Su Han again, then sneered dismissively, turned his head, and ascended the steps, as if climbing to the heavens, entering the fourth Light Barrier.

”Dismissive, huh?”

Watching his disappearing figure, Su Han smiled faintly.
