Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 958: Chapter 957 Nan Qing

”Yo~”

The arrival of the Fire God Eagle was marked by a piercing scream that echoed through the void, stinging people’s ears.

Even Su Han and the others frowned slightly, feeling that the sharp cry of the Fire God Eagle seemed capable of disturbing people’s minds, making them restless.

”It’s Nan Qing and the others!”

As the Fire God Eagle drew near, Bai Ling saw the figures standing on top of it, and her eyes immediately sharpened as she spoke.

”Oh?”

Su Han’s interest was piqued. He had a good impression of the people from One Slash Palace, as they had protected him from beginning to end. Su Han was grateful not just to those who helped him out, but to the entire One Slash Palace.

One Slash Palace was, in fact, the only Sect on the Dragon Martial Continent for which Su Han felt genuine gratitude.

”I thought I wouldn’t see them again until we left, but I didn’t expect to meet them here.”

Bai Ling sighed softly, ”Due to the strongest credentials, their status in this Archaic Era is really too high, and the strength of those they possess is extremely terrifying. Although we are all war generals of various empires, we are called Lishen King, Cold-Blooded King, and you, King Qinghong. But compared to Nan Qing, the Holy Spirit King, we are not on the same level at all.”

”Here, it’s ultimately just a trial. Why bother about these things?” Xuanyuan Wuqing said, unwillingly.

Bai Ling couldn’t help but laugh, glancing at Xuanyuan Wuqing, ”What, are you jealous?”

”Would I be jealous of him?”

Xuanyuan Wuqing curled his lips in disdain and said, ”That’s because you don’t know my true identity. If you knew, you definitely wouldn’t think so.”

”Oh?”

Bai Ling immediately became interested, teasingly saying, ”Then let me guess your real identity... Could you be the son of some Mighty Being in the Dragon Venerate Realm? Or a descendant of a Divine Spirit? Or perhaps the reincarnation of an Ancient Powerhouse? Should I start currying favor with you, so that when you recover your true identity, you might help me a bit?”

The words ’real identity’ were spoken with heavy emphasis by Bai Ling, and the playful expression on her face made Xuanyuan Wuqing’s face blush red.

”Forget it, you wouldn’t understand even if I told you.” Xuanyuan Wuqing waved his hand, feeling uninterested.

”Hmph, just bragging.” Bai Ling covered her mouth with a smile.

”Alright.”

Seeing Xuanyuan Wuqing’s extreme embarrassment, Su Han smiled and said, ”He’s not jealous of Nan Qing’s status here nor his talent on the Dragon Martial Continent, or the One Slash Palace’s background. What he’s envious of is your admiration for Nan Qing. Am I right?”

Xuanyuan Wuqing didn’t respond, and Bai Ling’s face flushed slightly as she whispered, ”I’m not envious of him; I think we’re just fine as we are now!”

”Really?” Xuanyuan Wuqing’s eyes lit up.

”False.” Bai Ling teased.

”You!” Xuanyuan Wuqing couldn’t help but say angrily, ”You’re driving me mad!”

Bai Ling burst into laughter, wanting to speak again, but then suddenly remembered something, and her face darkened, sighing inwardly, she didn’t continue speaking.

Seeing this, Xuanyuan Wuqing and Su Han exchanged a glance, obviously understanding what Bai Ling was thinking.

In Su Han’s view, although Xuanyuan Wuqing and Bai Ling had not yet broken through the thin paper of ambiguity, there were definitely feelings between them.

The reason Bai Ling sighed like that must be because of the rules of the Holy Spirit Palace. No matter how talented she was, she was just a minor figure within the Holy Spirit Palace. Everything she had was given by the Holy Spirit Palace; she couldn’t just betray them, otherwise, she would be condemned by everyone.

Moreover, the status of the Xuanyuan Clan was clearly inferior to the Holy Spirit Palace. She was a Heavenly Talent of the Holy Spirit Palace, and it was obvious, even with just a toe to think with, that the Holy Spirit Palace would never agree to Bai Ling being with Xuanyuan Wuqing.

”Don’t worry about it.” After a brief silence, Xuanyuan Wuqing said these words.

Bai Ling looked up at him, forced a smile, ”What do I have to worry about...”

Su Han looked at Bai Ling and chuckled softly, ”Wuqing is right, there’s no need for you to worry, and he’s not lying to you. If he recovers his real identity, when he proposes to you at the Holy Spirit Palace in the future, I bet all the strong ones in the Holy Spirit Palace would eagerly want to marry you off.”

”Really?”

Bai Ling, after all, was less than thirty years old, right at the age when love first begins to blossom.

She didn’t believe Xuanyuan Wuqing’s words, but she had complete faith in Su Han.

The title ’Su Zun’ was not given lightly. Even though Su Han’s age was about the same as theirs, Bai Ling always felt that Su Han was full of mystery.

”Really.”

Su Han nodded and smiled, ”However, recovering his true identity is extremely difficult, but you also don’t need to worry. At worst, I can play matchmaker and go to the Holy Spirit Palace to propose marriage on his behalf.”

”Really?”

”Really?”

This time, not only Bai Ling but even Xuanyuan Wuqing looked excited.

After all, this was Su Han, Su Zun!

With his help, if the Xuanyuan Clan presented some decent betrothal gifts, it might truly persuade the Holy Spirit Palace to agree.

But seeing Xuanyuan Wuqing’s excited expression, Bai Ling quickly realized, blushing deeply, she whispered, ”What proposal? I never said I wanted to marry him.”

”Hahaha...” Xuanyuan Wuqing was in a great mood, laughing heartily.

His name might be Xuanyuan Wuqing, but he was not truly unfeeling.

Su Han, on the other hand, did not dwell further on this matter, turning his gaze into the distance.

In his view, the Fire God Eagle had already begun to descend. While in the sky, it was not obvious, but upon landing, its massive form occupied a radius of a hundred miles. Although countless people felt displeased, they stepped back immediately, not daring to delay for fear of incurring the displeasure of the powerful ones from the Fire God Empire.

The ’Holy Spirit King’ Nan Qing possessed was a middle-aged man with a rugged face and a burly build, completely different from Nan Qing’s original lean and slender form.

”The big guy in front is Nan Qing.” Bai Ling whispered.

Su Han acknowledged; even without Bai Ling pointing it out, he had noticed.

As if sensing their gaze, Nan Qing’s eyes turned in their direction. When he saw Bai Ling, he hesitated for a moment in silence and then walked slowly towards them.

”Greetings to the Holy Spirit King!”

”We pay our respects to the Holy Spirit King!”

As he passed, many people promptly saluted Nan Qing, not daring to breathe loud enough to be heard, causing Nan Qing to curl his lips again.

”We meet again.”

Arriving before the group, Nan Qing nodded towards Bai Ling, then looked at Su Han and Xuanyuan Wuqing.

He had only seen Bai Ling before, but he could also sense the aura of the Dragon Martial Continent on the two, somewhat surprised.

”Let me introduce you.”

Bai Ling smiled and pointed at Xuanyuan Wuqing, ”This is Xuanyuan Wuqing from the Xuanyuan Clan, the leader of the Xuanyuan Clan this time.”

Upon hearing this, Nan Qing nodded at Xuanyuan Wuqing, who nodded back in return.

”This is...”

When it came to introducing Su Han, Bai Ling suddenly paused.
