Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 1038: Chapter 1037 Nan Hong Breakthrough

Inside a certain palace of the One Slash Palace.

Nangong Duanchen sat at the main seat, and besides him, there were only three others present in the entirety of the palace.

These three were none other than Nangong Duanchen’s biological brothers, the other three Palace Masters of the One Slash Palace.

In front of them was a phantom-like silver screen, displaying the scene of the battle between Su Han and Ning Yihai.

”In just two years, he has become so strong...”

Nangong Chenfeng took a deep breath, and even though he was a Dragon Emperor Realm expert, he did not hide the shock on his face.

”Second brother, you and this boy only met once by chance, but I have met him several times.”

Nangong Chenfeng looked at Nangong Duanchen and said, ”Every time I meet him, this boy’s strength shows tremendous improvement. I originally thought this time, even if he has improved, at most he could be invincible under the Dragon Emperor Realm, even if stronger, he could just escape from a Dragon Emperor Realm’s hands, unlike the past where he could be killed on a whim. But now, it seems...”

At this point, Nangong Chenfeng paused slightly, then sighed again, ”Now it seems this boy’s improvement has completely exceeded my expectations; for those at the Early Stage of the Dragon Emperor Realm who haven’t opened their Imperial Domain, it’s downright a crushing!”

”He hasn’t even unleashed that legendary magic, or his Immortal Cultivation base,” Nangong Hualin added.

”You can’t say that.”

Nangong Qihai shook his head slightly, ”Magic cultivation, immortal cultivation, those are not on the same level. If they could all be fused together, it would indeed be terrifying, but I think it’s simply impossible to merge them all, at least at the current level of Su Han. And without merging, they can only be spoken of separately. No matter how many cultivation ways he has, his cultivation base is ultimately restricted to that point and can’t excel much beyond it.”

”Exactly.” Nangong Chenfeng also nodded.

Then, Nangong Chenfeng said again, ”But, not to mention magic cultivation and immortal cultivation, just with Su Han’s current strength, he can crush those at the Early Stage of the Dragon Emperor Realm who haven’t developed their Imperial Domain. I just wonder how long he can maintain this state, and it’s even more uncertain whether this technique for enhancing his strength has any side effects.”

”How long can he maintain it? Side effects?”

Nangong Qihai glanced at Su Han in the screen, then sighed, ”Fourth brother, there’s no need for you to worry about that. Judging from this kid’s demeanor, if he wished, he could keep this up his entire life...”

”Hahaha...” Nangong Chenfeng burst into laughter.

”Stop laughing.”

Nangong Duanchen frowned slightly, ”Yihai is a member of my One Slash Palace and also my direct disciple, yet you guys are here praising this kid instead of speaking up for Yihai.”

”Second brother, stop pulling that.”

Nangong Hualin glanced at Nangong Duanchen and snorted, ”Who doesn’t know you? This kid is likely to become your son-in-law in the future. I reckon you are the happiest right now, aren’t you? Stop sulking. There are no outsiders here. Even if you favor your future son-in-law, we won’t have any objections.”

”Big brother, how can you say that?”

Nangong Duanchen looked at the three, and seeing them all staring at him, he could no longer hold back and finally broke into a smile.

Seeing him laugh, Nangong Huahai and the others burst into hearty laughter too.

”As for the son-in-law matter, let’s talk about it later.”

Nangong Duanchen said, ”Su Han possesses such talent; it is fortunate for our One Slash Palace. Whether it was when he was pursued and we helped, or today as he seeks trouble with Nan Qing and we haven’t stopped him, all of it has been giving him face. In the future, when he grows, I hope he remembers it was our One Slash Palace.”

”He’s not that kind of person.”

Nangong Chenfeng shook his head and said, ”You’ve all heard what he said on Disciple Mountain. With his personality, if it were elsewhere, where Nan Qing and Nan Hong dared speak to him that way, he would’ve long killed them. But here, from start to finish, he’s never mentioned killing them. At most, he only intends to cripple their cultivation.”

”That he says this shows he’s someone who remembers kindness and is telling us that he, Su Han, remembers our kindness.”

”Indeed.”

Nangong Hualin nodded and said, ”That’s a very valid point. Even if he intends to cripple Nan Qing’s cultivation, it’s understandable. After all, he’s the Phoenix Sect Leader; his every move represents the Phoenix Sect. Today, with such an imposing presence going to Disciple Mountain, if Nan Qing remains unscathed, spreading such news would be extremely detrimental to him. If I were him, I would do the same.”

”So are we just going to watch? Yihai obviously isn’t his match anymore. If this continues... this kid might really cripple Yihai!” Nangong Qihai appeared worried.

”That won’t do!”

Nangong Duanchen’s eyes widened in an instant, ”Nan Qing can be crippled, but not Yihai. A Dragon Emperor Realm doesn’t emerge every few years, how can we let him do as he pleases!”

”Let’s wait and see.” Nangong Chenfeng said with a wry smile.

...

While they were discussing, Su Han and Ning Yihai had already engaged in no fewer than ten exchanges.

The arena was completely silent. The disciples watching could see clearly that almost every time, Su Han shattered Ning Yihai’s attacks.

Just like the battle against Nan Hong earlier, even though Ning Yihai was at the Dragon Emperor Realm, he was still being crushed in Su Han’s hands!

”So weak it’s pathetic!”

Su Han’s sneering voice echoed across the sky, making Ning Yihai’s already pale face darken considerably.

”With such strength, you don’t deserve to be called Dragon Emperor Realm!”

Su Han spoke again, ”Scram to the side now, seeing as you’re a Palace Master’s disciple, I’ll consider your previous actions nothing but a fart. If you dare act again, this sect will no longer be so merciful.”

Ning Yihai’s expression was sullen; he had already realized he was no match for Su Han.

Initially, he thought this technique for boosting Su Han’s power wouldn’t last long and likely came with severe side effects. He intended to drag it out until the technique’s time was up, Su Han’s power diminished, and then he’d defeat Su Han in one fell swoop.

But judging by Su Han’s lively appearance... he didn’t seem like someone who couldn’t hold out for long!

”Su Baliu, you...”

Ning Yihai took a deep breath, ready to speak, but just then, a sudden roar came from behind him.

Under this roar, a terrifying aura surged up, and everyone immediately turned their gaze. The owner of this aura... was Nan Hong! 𝑓𝑟ℯℴ𝓂

At this moment, Nan Hong’s eyes had opened, and the first thing his opened eyes looked at was Su Han.

Earlier, he had closed his eyes and ears, ignoring everything happening outside. He had no idea what happened and didn’t care, only focused on breaking through.

Originally, breaking from Dragon God Realm to Dragon Emperor Realm would take days to months, but Nan Hong obviously didn’t want to waste that much time. He broke through in a very short time, although he reached Dragon Emperor Realm, his foundation was unstable.

But none of that mattered to Nan Hong!

He just wanted to break through quickly and then cripple Su Han, letting him know he shouldn’t have provoked him!

As for the foundation, he could stabilize it later; it wouldn’t have much of an impact on himself anyway.
