Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 972: Chapter 971 Zhou Jie

”Just you?”

Seeing Su Han make a move, Nan Qing showed no fear. He was extremely confident that he could easily smash Su Han to pieces, let alone stop him.

But just as his words fell, Nan Qing’s expression changed drastically.

Not only Nan Qing, but even Xuanyuan Wuqing, Bai Ling, and the middle-aged man, along with countless onlookers around, suddenly stood up, showing shock.

”Roar!!!”

At the moment when Su Han made his move, the blue Mysterious Turtle beneath him suddenly stood up. As it stood up, an earth-shattering roar emanated from the Mysterious Turtle’s mouth.

This roar triggered ripples, directly radiating towards Nan Qing, and the massive fist light shattered with a bang under the influence of these ripples.

Nan Qing’s face turned pale, his heart pounding wildly, but he still roared, ”This is impossible!!!”

”Yeah, this is impossible!”

”How could the Mysterious Turtle make a move? Could it be that this person really has some connection with the Ancient Divine Mountain?”

”Once he stepped onto the Ancient Divine Mountain, the nine silver curtains vanished, and the events afterward were even more unbelievable, as if the king had returned. Now, this Mysterious Turtle even made a move for him, and the giant that has always stood behind him, will it help him too?”

Amid the murmurs, even Su Han himself didn’t know that the Mysterious Turtle would make a move, and with such strength, just a roar shattered the attack of Nan Qing, one of the top ten experts in the Eastern Domain.

Su Han’s action was merely reflexive; he certainly wouldn’t watch Xuanyuan Wuqing and Bai Ling be killed before his eyes.

However, after blocking Nan Qing’s attack, Su Han did not feel any excitement, because he vaguely felt that the Mysterious Turtle could not actively help him attack, if someone attacked Su Han, or if Su Han intervened to stop others’ attacks, like just now, the Mysterious Turtle would act, but active attacking seemed unlikely.

Otherwise, relying solely on this Mysterious Turtle, he could easily kill Nan Qing here.

”I don’t believe it!”

Amidst Nan Qing’s roar, he made another move, and this time it was directly targeting Su Han, not Xuanyuan Wuqing and Bai Ling.

Before Su Han could react, feeling Nan Qing’s attack approaching, the Mysterious Turtle roared again, and this time the roar was significantly stronger than before. When the ripples came, they turned Nan Qing’s attack into collapse, causing Nan Qing to feel a jolt in his chest and spitting out a large mouthful of blood, his figure flying backward.

”Hiss!!!”

Seeing this scene, everyone gasped in shock.

How strong is this Mysterious Turtle?

Whether it was before or now, it was just a roar, to put it unsparingly, it simply blew a breath, yet caused the Holy Spirit King to vomit blood.

”Ah!!!”

Nan Qing stood up, his face flushed red, roared a sentence and suddenly stepped forward.

Everyone thought he would attack again, but unexpectedly, after taking that step, Nan Qing suddenly retreated, his speed exploded entirely, disappearing in an instant from everyone’s sight.

This scene left many people dazed, even Su Han, and even those from One Slash Palace, appeared a bit dumbfounded.

But soon, everyone reacted.

Su Han now entering the Ancient Divine Mountain, with the power of the Mysterious Turtle, not to mention self-protection, it’s even possible to kill Nan Qing.

Nan Qing was no fool; he knew how excessive his previous words were, and he even harbored a murderous intent towards Su Han. If Su Han used the power of the Mysterious Turtle to kill Nan Qing here, his death would be in vain.

So, Nan Qing ran away without hesitation.

”This...”

The remaining several people from One Slash Palace looked at each other in confusion, and after a moment, with gloomy expressions, turned and left.

”Wait.”

Just then, Su Han suddenly spoke, ”Nan Qing has harbored murderous intentions towards me, you all heard and saw it.”

Su Han glanced at everyone, seeing their expressions change, and continued, ”He is the Direct Disciple of Nangong Duanchen, logically, I should give Nangong Duanchen some face, so I won’t kill him.”

”But he can escape the death penalty, not the punishment!”

”Tell him to be prepared, when I return to the Dragon Martial Continent, I will personally go to One Slash Palace, and by that time, let him think carefully about how to apologize to me.”

Upon hearing this, those people did not respond, turned and left.

However, in their hearts, they sneered, what does it matter if you are Su Baliu? What about a good relationship with the Palace Master?

The Palace Master greatly values Nan Qing, having spent an unknown amount of resources on him, and given Nangong Duanchen’s protective nature and pride, he probably won’t let Su Han do anything to Nan Qing.

Su Han didn’t care about their thoughts, his gaze remained on the middle-aged man who hadn’t left.

”Why aren’t you leaving?” Su Han asked.

The middle-aged man hesitated slightly, cupped his fists, and said, ”Sect Master Su, do you remember Zhou Jie?”

”Zhou Jie?”

Su Han was taken aback: ”Are you Zhou Jie?”

The middle-aged man immediately smiled, ”It seems Sect Master Su is not someone who forgets easily, still remembers me.”

”Of course I remember you.” Su Han smiled as well.

These words were not mere politeness. Back on the Mountain of the Divine Medicine, the disciples of One Slash Palace were led by Nangong Yu and Zhou Jie. Back then, Nangong Yu even had to call Zhou Jie ’senior brother.’

However, Su Han didn’t think Zhou Jie’s talent was outstanding enough. In just a few years, unexpectedly, he became one of the ten people who entered the Holy Domain of the Demon Immortal.

”As long as Sect Master Su still recognizes me, I am satisfied.”

Zhou Jie smiled and cupped his fists, but from his expression, it was clear he had more to say.

”We’re not strangers, I have a good impression of you, speak freely, don’t hold back.” Su Han said.

Zhou Jie was silent for a moment, then said, ”Since Sect Master Su has spoken, I won’t hold back. The Young Palace Master indeed had feelings for you. After you ’died,’ she went on a rampage at One Slash Palace, and even after our entry into the Holy Domain of the Demon Immortal, she seemed to have changed. I hope...”

”I understand.” Su Han directly interrupted him.

Hearing this, Zhou Jie gave a wry smile, sighed inwardly, and also left.

How could Su Han not understand his intentions, and how could Zhou Jie not understand Su Han’s?

Even if Nangong Yu truly fell for Su Han, that was her own matter. With Su Han’s current status, position, and strength, the women who adored him could line up. From the scene on the plaza that day, one could see that there were even daughters of Second-Rate Sects confessing to Su Han.

Must Su Han accept each and every one of these women?
