Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 1556: Chapter 1555: Arrogant, or Truly Strong?

”Yun Feng, I’ve heard the Magic God Demonic Academy has already sent you an invitation?”

Standing opposite Qu Yunfeng, Ming Shiqing spoke to him, but his eyes were fixed on Su Han, a shadowy glint in them.

”You must cultivate well and become the pillar of our Heavenly Mountain Pavilion in the future. Don’t end up like some people, arrogant and overbearing! They’ll not even know how they met their end.”

”Certainly.”

Qu Yunfeng nodded lightly, still facing away from Su Han, speaking calmly: ”After all, I’m not that brainless.”

Su Han stood right next to them, hearing their conversation clearly.

Or rather, they were speaking for Su Han to hear.

His gaze shifted lightly, passing over Ming Shiqing and landing on Qu Yunfeng’s back.

”This is supposedly the second-ranked Outer Sect Disciple, rivaling the first, Qu Yunfeng?”

Su Han shook his head inwardly: ”Only so-so.”

Qu Yunfeng doesn’t belong to the Ming Surname faction nor Ren Qinghuan’s side, but it’s obvious he’s aligned with the Ming Surname faction.

At this moment, on the Life and Death Platform, Mingqing Lotus obviously knew of Su Han’s arrival.

His eyes opened wide, scanning his surroundings until he saw Su Han.

”You little bastard, get up here!”

A shout erupted, the air instantly thick with gunpowder.

The crowd fell silent at this moment, all eyes turning toward Su Han.

Ming Shiqing did the same, while the defiant Qu Yunfeng still faced away, seemingly uninterested in even a glance at Su Han.

”Wait for me here.”

Su Han pressed his lips together, releasing Ye Xiaofei’s hand, turning back with a smile: ”Remember to cheer for me.”

”Mhm!”

Ye Xiaofei nodded vigorously.

Su Han lifted his foot, slowly stepping up the platform from the stairs.

The so-called Life and Death Platform, in fact, is just a ring.

However, around this Life and Death Platform, lights emerge, and once both parties enter, they can shut the lights themselves. As long as one side doesn’t die, they can’t leave.

”Swish!”

As Su Han stepped onto the Life and Death Platform, Mingqing Lotus’s eyes flashed, the grinning smile on his lips becoming more sinister.

He lightly slapped his hand to the side, causing the light barrier to surge forth, enveloping the entire Life and Death Platform!

This scene made the others present instinctively contract their pupils.

This is the sign of an undying struggle!

Su Han witnessed the lighting barrier appear and observed Mingqing Lotus’s sinister smile at the corner of his lips.

His expression remained calm, one step at a time, walking up the stairs until he reached the top of the Life and Death Platform.

”How would you like to die?”

Mingqing Lotus stared at Su Han, his whole body emanating killing intent unabated.

”Since the day I was born, I have never disliked anyone as much as you—the first to whom this applies—so you deserve some credit.”

Su Han’s gaze remained steady, and he did not offer a reply.

”What’s this, scared now? Hahahaha... Too late!”

Spiritual power surged in Mingqing Lotus’s hand, all his Sixth Grade Spirit Transformation Realm aura exploding forth.

He pointed at Su Han, his voice laden with resentment: ”Su Han, don’t say your Senior Brother here won’t give you a chance—survive three of my moves, and I’ll spare your life, only crippling your cultivation base!”

”Three moves?”

”Isn’t Senior Brother Ming a Sixth Grade Spirit Transformation Realm? For Su Han, isn’t that total suppression?”

”Not necessarily. Previously, Su Han struck and instantly swept away Mu Lie, also a Third-Grade Spirit Transformation Realm, proving his strength isn’t merely that of a Third-Grade Spirit Transformation Realm.”

”Indeed, when Su Han’s aura exploded back then, I felt it carefully. That was a Third-Grade Spirit Transformation Realm aura!”

”Among Outer Sect Disciples, they say his aptitude is terrifying, but after just a year of training on the Demon Sea Star and even given great opportunities, how could he leap from Mortal Realm to Third-Grade Spirit Transformation?”

”All talk is worthless; at this moment, Su Han is a Third-Grade Spirit Transformation Realm.”

”For someone like him who could defeat First Grade Spirit Transformation with Mortal Realm’s strength, now at Third-Grade Spirit Transformation, he should be able to battle Fourth Grade Spirit Transformation right?”

”Even so, he still can’t take on Senior Brother Ming; cultivation suppression certainly can defeat Su Han.”

”I disagree. Without some foundation, how dare Su Han step up?”

...

An array of discussions below quietly buzzed, though the sheer number of people created a humming sound.

”Silence!”

Ming Shiqing spoke, waving his hand to signal everyone to stop talking.

These disciples were tactful enough; knowing Mingqing Lotus might act soon, they became silent.

”Respectfully calling me Senior Brother, I’ll relax the conditions; merely endure two moves.”

Even at this point, Mingqing Lotus was thinking of how to humiliate Su Han.

”If you call me Senior Brother, surviving two moves, I’ll spare your life.”

”If you bow and beg for mercy, as long as you withstand one move, I’ll spare your life, how about it?”

Upon hearing this, quite a few below knitted their brows slightly, feeling Mingqing Lotus was excessive.

Su Han, keeping silent from start to finish.

At this moment, Su Han raised his eyes slightly, flipping his hand, revealing a long knife.

This long knife is the Ultimate Night of the Divine Blade.

”Is...is this a Mortal Grade weapon?”

Mingqing Lotus, seeing the Ultimate Night of the Divine Blade, burst into laughter: ”Hahaha, Su Han, should Senior Brother lend you a Spiritual Artifact? What happened to the High-Grade Spiritual Artifact the Sect awarded you? Did you eat it?”

”To kill you, this blade suffices.”

Su Han spoke, the Extreme Night straight at Mingqing Lotus.

”Survive one stroke from me, and I’ll spare you alive.”

”What did you say?!”

Mingqing Lotus’s face instantly darkened: ”You, a petty Third-Grade Spirit Transformation Realm brat, with a broken knife not even reaching Spiritual Artifact level, dare speak such arrogance here?”

Not only him, but those below were also slightly stunned.

Su Han’s arrogance wasn’t something new, but every time they witnessed it, it left them speechless.

This blade isn’t even a Spiritual Artifact, but if Mingqing Lotus casually equipped an armor of Low-Grade Spiritual Artifact rank, it could block the blade’s attack. Where did Su Han’s confidence and courage to speak so boldly come from?

”Hmph, truly like a fearless newborn calf!”

Ming Shiqing nearly laughed out loud: ”This cursed being cost me my position as Master of the Hall of Punishment; if you don’t die, I’ll never resolve my hatred!”

Beside him, Qu Yunfeng finally raised his head, looking at Su Han.

Su Han was standing right in front of him—he couldn’t persist with his aloof stance and turn his back, right?

Gazing at Su Han’s calm expression, listening to his ’far-fetched’ words, Qu Yunfeng slowly uttered a few words.

”Empty threats, nothing more.”
