Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 537: Chapter 534: Fight With You!

Gazing into the gentleness in Gu Qingtian’s eyes and listening to the words he spoke, Gu Yunlei felt an even more intense stabbing pain in his heart.

He suddenly felt that his father really had grown old.

In his youth, no matter how much trouble he caused, his father who would always clean up after him seemed... to no longer possess his former towering presence.

”Dad...”

Gu Yunlei spoke, his expression pained.

This time, he did not call Gu Qingtian ”Old Man Gu” or ”Father”, but instead called him ”Dad”.

After all, the word ”Dad” is the closest between father and son.

”It seems you’ve grown sensible,” Gu Qingtian said with a smile, though the smile was somewhat tragic.

”Dad, capturing Han Mei wasn’t because I was still immersed in lust as before, but because, inside Han Mei, there is a Pure Yin Aura. Capturing her and using her as a Furnace would allow my Cultivation Base to improve!”

”Also, Dixue approached me before he sought you out, knowing you would listen to me, so he negotiated with me and even promised that after Ruyi Sect joined the Demon Army, he would make me...”

”I know.”

Gu Yunlei was explaining, but Gu Qingtian interrupted him.

”I know all of it.”

Gu Qingtian shook his head slightly, ”But all that is in the past. In the future, you might no longer have my protection, and I worry about you.”

”Last night, I dreamt of your mother. She said that it was my indulgence that spoiled you, leading to your current arrogance and recklessness.”

”But I said, you are my son, and if you are arrogant and reckless, then so be it.”

”Just... don’t be like this anymore.”

Gu Yunlei’s heart ached with each word, feeling as if the sky was about to collapse.

What he didn’t say was that Dixue had promised that once Ruyi Sect defected and joined the Demon Army, he, Gu Yunlei, would become the Sect Master of Ruyi Sect and command a million of the Demon Army!

And Gu Qingtian... would die.

At that time, Gu Yunlei did not think about what his life would be like after Gu Qingtian’s death, but now he knew, he would feel heartache.

It wasn’t just because he would lose protection, but because he would no longer have a father, that he felt heartache.

”Let’s go...”

Gu Qingtian took a deep breath and took one last look at Gu Yunlei.

”Dad, please don’t...”

”GO!!!”

Seeing Gu Yunlei still hesitating, Gu Qingtian’s eyes showed determination.

Suddenly, he waved his hand, and the Power of the Peak of the Dragon God Realm burst forth, grabbing Gu Yunlei, and along with Han Mei, threw them far away.

At the same time, he swung out another palm, creating a massive force that pushed Dixue and the others towards the back.

”Dixue, today I use my life to protect you all. In the future, if anything happens to my son, even from the depths of the Nine Springs, I, Gu Qingtian, will curse you to never die well!”

Gu Qingtian’s voice reached Dixue’s ears.

Dixue sneered inwardly, but outwardly he clasped his fists and said, ”Sect Master Gu, you sacrifice your life to ensure our safe departure. I deeply acknowledge this kindness and will ensure that Gu Yunlei suffers no slight!”

With that, he grabbed Gu Yunlei and turned to leave.

In his heart, Gu Yunlei and Han Mei were nothing more than burdens, but at this moment, if he did not take Gu Yunlei and Han Mei away, Gu Qingtian would not have so decisively cleared the way for them.

No sooner had they left than a figure appeared in front of Gu Qingtian in the void above.

Clad in white, his robes fluttered without wind, his hair dancing in the air.

It was Su Han!

Gazing at Gu Qingtian, Su Han fell silent for a moment before saying, ”The affection between father and son is universal, but that cannot justify Gu Yunlei’s survival.”

”Su Baliu, I admit, you are indeed very strong, terrifyingly so. Even though I have always felt that I am the strongest in the Peak of the Dragon God Realm, you still exceeded my expectations,” Gu Qingtian spoke.

”No, you indeed are the strongest in the Dragon God Realm,” Su Han shook his head.

Gu Qingtian was startled, and then, as Su Han released his aura, his pupils suddenly contracted: ”Dragon Pill Realm?!”

He was inwardly startled, his face showing shock, but after a moment, everything vanished like smoke, and his expression returned to calm.

”It doesn’t matter whether you are in the Dragon God Realm or the Dragon Pill Realm, or even the Dragon Vein Realm, you are still Su Baliu.”

Su Han was silent. Even though he had harbored a profound intent to kill towards Gu Qingtian and the entire Ruyi Sect for their betrayal, at this moment, he felt somewhat regretful towards this Gu Qingtian.

For his unworthy son, to be willing to risk his life to block others, that was a parent’s heart in all the world!

Especially after having Su Qing and Su Yao, he felt this sentiment even more strongly.

”Had it only been for Shangguan Mingxin, I might have spared Gu Yunlei, but today, as my Phoenix Sect advances mightily, Ruyi Sect must provide an answer,” Su Han said.

”Must this answer necessarily be Yunlei’s life?”

Gu Qingtian gave a bitter laugh: ”Su Baliu, oh Su Baliu, your cultivation base is formidable, but in the end, you haven’t stepped beyond vanity. Your Phoenix Sect is strong, and it is strong, no result needed, and the whole world will tremble. And if it’s weak, it is weak, no matter how many results you have, they will never catch the world’s eye.”

”What a pity, had there been no battle today, you might have stepped into the Dragon Emperor Realm, your path, your way, already decided your future achievements.”

Su Han looked at Gu Qingtian and slowly said, ”It was your son, who ruined you.”

”Gu, I have no regrets!”

Gu Qingtian burst out laughing, his figure flashing, his robe violently shattering, revealing a deep purple armor all over his body.

That armor, clearly a High-Grade Purple Gold Level defensive weapon, could even be described as Top-Grade, and Su Han sensed an aura from it that was close to the Holy Spirit Level.

”Su Baliu!”

”This old man, Gu Qingtian, unbeaten at the Peak of the Dragon God Realm, though hopeful for the Dragon Emperor, fate decrees otherwise, I have no regrets!”

”Come, fight!”

This voice spread across the void, even disciples from the two sects in distant Ruyi City could hear it distinctly.

Unfortunately, they could not witness the battle between the two grand strongmen.

”I will join you... in one battle!”

Su Han took a deep breath, at that moment, he felt a trace of admiration for Gu Qingtian.

But that admiration was fleeting, soon replaced by a relentless killing intent!

Gu Yunlei had to die, Gu Qingtian’s interference, though driven by paternal love, meant between him and Su Han, the only thing existing was enmity, only hatred!

Su Han took a step forward, causing the space before him to boom loudly, shattering layer by layer.

At a glance, it seemed as though there were stairways leading straight to the heavens, but under the force of Su Han’s step, they collapsed thunderously!
