Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 1014: Chapter 1013: 1 Hundred Million Spirit Stones, How About That?

Due to Dongfang Han’s breakthrough, Su Han was extremely happy and satisfied. The entire Phoenix Sect held a banquet for a day. At the banquet, Su Han bestowed a title upon Dongfang Han, making him the third person in the Phoenix Sect to hold an official title.

Qilin King—Dongfang Han!

The Three Kings of the Phoenix Sect, all are Dragon Emperor Realm, are among the leaders of the Phoenix Sect.

By now, many Phoenix Sect disciples have also understood that only those who reach the Dragon Emperor Realm have the qualifications to be granted a title by Su Han.

And this condition is indeed something quite out of reach for many.

Dongfang Han’s breakthrough seemed to have stirred Ling Qinghai. After all, from a certain level, their statuses were similar, one in artifact refining and the other in alchemy.

Ling Qinghai didn’t attend the banquet. On the day of the banquet, he announced seclusion, declaring that he would not come out unless he refined an Earth Nether Level pill and reached the Dragon Emperor Realm!

Regarding this, Su Han did not stop him; rather, he appreciated it.

The heart for martial arts should be so brave and forward. If one continues to be timid, holding a fluke mentality, thinking they might achieve it tomorrow if not today, or the day after tomorrow if not tomorrow, then they will not achieve much in their lifetime.

So-called powerhouses weren’t always glorious. Before they became strong, the effort they put in, the price they paid, and all their hard work were not something ordinary people could match.

...

After the banquet, the Phoenix Sect once again settled down.

However, everyone knew this calm was only on the surface, and it was just temporary. Soon, a storm would come.

Since Su Han returned from the Holy Domain of the Demon Immortal, almost a year had passed.

During this year, Su Han had made harsh statements but never acted. Outsiders might think Su Han was merely bluffing. After already offending the Five Great Super Sects, he couldn’t possibly provoke those numerous middle and small powers.

Moreover, those who left the Phoenix Sect were of no real concern to the sect. To cause a rift with those powers just for such a small number of people was not worth it.

Perhaps those powers themselves thought the same, which is why they hadn’t let people go and confidently stated that as long as these people were in their sect, they would protect them.

But those who understood Su Han knew it was not just bluster. Since Su Han said it, he would certainly do it; it was just that the time hadn’t come yet.

Now, with the Phoenix Sect successfully recruiting disciples, the overall strength has vastly improved. One powerhouse after another has achieved breakthroughs, the Three Great Legions are established, and the fluctuations caused by Su Han’s previous ’death’ have completely stabilized at this moment...

All of this is indicative that the Phoenix Sect is developing in a legitimate direction.

And in such development, it’s inevitable that people will have to be dealt with!

...

Three more days passed, and on the morning of the fourth day, a large number of young people came to the outside of the Phoenix Sect.

Su Han received the news and naturally knew who had arrived.

He directly went out with his subordinates to the entrance of the Phoenix Sect. Upon seeing those thousands of figures, Su Han immediately sent out his divine sense and instantly sensed the aura on these people, which greatly satisfied him, bringing a smile to the corner of his mouth.

”Su Han, meet all the senior brothers and sisters.” Su Han clasped his fist and spoke to them.

As he spoke, many figures on the opposite side were sizing him up. It was evident that they all held the same mindset as Xiuji and Gongsun Ze had initially. Perhaps Su Han’s image didn’t match their imaginations, but the person was right in front of them, and they didn’t have any other doubts.

”My name is Luo Ling, and in terms of seniority, you indeed have to call me senior brother.”

Someone stepped forward, a young man who seemed about the same age as Gongsun Ze, maybe one or two years older.

He looked at Su Han, then continued, ”We are here following the master’s orders, but you should know, the reason we followed our master is, firstly, because of the master’s terrifying strength, and secondly, because the master is a loose cultivator. If we wished to join a power, going to those grand powers would be the same, as they too have world-class powerhouses.”

After a brief silence, Luo Ling straightforwardly said, ”I won’t beat around the bush. I just want to know, with so many grand powers, given our talents, we can join freely. The super sects have even invited us before. Why should we join your Phoenix Sect?”

”Because you are my senior brothers and sisters. Why let the fat water flow into others’ fields? If you’re joining, naturally, you should join the sect founded by your junior brother!” Su Han laughed mischievously.

Luo Ling was rendered speechless. He was speaking seriously to Su Han, not joking, but seeing Su Han’s smile, where was the solemnity?

This was entirely different from the legend of ’Su Zun’!

”Stop with the nonsense.”

Another person waved their hand, wearing a green outfit, youthful-looking, extremely handsome, with purple hair swaying in the wind, appearing almost like a woman.

”Who looks like a big sister here?” Su Han asked.

”You!”

The purple-haired man’s eyes widened in anger immediately.

He detested being told he looked like a woman, yet he happened to have a woman’s face and was often teased.

He did not expect that Su Han’s first words to him would strike the wrong chord, greatly lowering his impression of Su Han.

”I’m Ziwang, and I despise people saying I look like a woman. You better remember!” the purple-haired man snorted coldly.

”Ahem...”

Su Han gave a light cough, showing awkwardness and smilingly said, ”Senior brother should have said so earlier; I’m not the type who enjoys offending people. It was all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding.”

”Hmph!”

Ziwang snorted again, not speaking further.

”You haven’t answered my question.”

Luo Ling asked again, ”With so many grand powers, why should we join the Phoenix Sect? I know the master is at the Phoenix Sect, but honestly, if you don’t give sufficient reasons, today we wouldn’t even meet the master. As we came, we would leave.”

”What conditions do you want?” Su Han asked in return.

”We dare not propose conditions, as we follow the master’s orders.” Luo Ling shook his head.

”How about one billion spirit stones per person?” Su Han suggested.

Luo Ling: ”...”

Ziwang: ”...”

Everyone: ”...”

All were speechless, and the surrounding onlookers immediately burst into exclamations.

One billion spirit stones!

That’s one billion, not ten thousand!

Everyone knew how vast the quantity of one billion spirit stones was. Therefore, after Su Han proposed this condition, Luo Ling and the others fell directly silent.
