Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 974: Chapter 973: The Unexpected Person

The scenes inside the Ancient Divine Mountain weren’t as luxurious and extravagant as imagined.

In the minds of many, they thought the inside of the Ancient Divine Mountain should be like the Golden Luan Hall. However, there were also those who believed it would be a place of wailing ghosts and wolves. After all, it was formed by the many resentments of the Ancient Period and Primeval Period. Those without a strong will would immediately tremble and feel fear upon entering.

But in reality, it was pitch black inside, as if it existed in another space, somewhat similar to the Realm Within a Realm.

After Su Han entered, he looked down and saw there was no ground beneath his feet, nor a sky above his head. All around was pitch black, completely obscured.

After a slight contemplation, Su Han spoke, ”Tell me, why are you helping me?”

Whether it was the disappearance of the nine silver screens or the intervention of the Mysterious Turtle, it was evident that the Ancient Divine Mountain was helping him, or rather, someone within the mountain was helping him.

Su Han was not oblivious. In terms of status, he was merely King Qinghong; in terms of strength, he was worlds apart from Nan Qing, the Holy Spirit King. Yet, the Ancient Divine Mountain chose to help him. Su Han wouldn’t naively believe it was because he looked so good that people would help him wherever he went. There clearly was a reason.

After Su Han finished speaking, there was no sound, yet he felt a finger suddenly poke him on the shoulder.

Su Han’s body trembled as he abruptly turned his head, but he still saw nothing.

However, he knew it was definitely a finger that poked him just now!

Which meant, there was someone here.

”Who are you?”

Su Han frowned, and just as he finished speaking, the finger poked him again on the back.

Su Han felt a chill wind attacking him, a coldness rising from the bottom of his heart.

Terrified!

Even though he had lived nearly a billion years and didn’t believe in ghosts or spirits, nor was he afraid, he lived in later generations, yet this was Desolate Antiquity!

Moreover, in such a pitch-black environment where you can’t see your hand in front of your face and the surroundings are silent, having someone suddenly poke you from behind would be startling no matter how strong one’s state of mind is.

”Show yourself!” Su Han shouted.

He was grateful for the help but disliked being teased like this.

”Not fun...”

A somewhat rough voice came, carrying a bit of displeasure and... a strong sense of grievance.

Su Han naturally sensed this grievance, his frown deepening. He asked again, ”Who exactly are you?”

”Hehehe, you guess, if you guess right there’s a reward,” that voice said.

”Too lazy to guess.” Su Han rolled his eyes.

”No fun, still no fun,” that voice said.

Su Han was losing patience, and said, ”Anyway, I’ve entered the Ancient Divine Mountain, logically, you should help me fulfill a wish.”

”No!”

The voice directly said, ”I just don’t want to give you anything, I won’t help you fulfill a wish, what can you do about it?”

This statement was filled with childishness, as if intentionally throwing a tantrum at Su Han, leaving him a bit helpless.

Indeed, if the person doesn’t give him a chance to fulfill a wish, what could he do?

”Tell me, who are you?” Su Han asked weakly.

”Alright, I won’t tease you anymore.”

The voice said, and immediately the surroundings suddenly changed.

A glimmer of light appeared in Su Han’s vision, far off, but gradually erasing the surrounding darkness.

Su Han saw clearly, it was a sun.

Following this light, the surroundings began to show soil, with bushes and towering trees quickly growing as if in a moment or ten thousand years, reaching the sky, and vanishing from sight.

Heaven and Earth appeared, mist swirling, tree hollows crafted in the trunks of these big trees.

Figures appeared in sight at some unknown moment, some were playing with each other, picking wild fruits, or lying leisurely on vines hung between trunks.

Seeing these figures, Su Han’s pupils contracted sharply, his body fiercely shuddered, a touch of red appearing in his eyes.

The red color was tears.

The figures... were savages!

”Do you know who I am now?”

A figure jumped down from the big tree above, landing in front of Su Han with a not-so-white smile, grinning broadly.

”You... you...”

Su Han pointed at the figure, his voice trembling, temporarily speechless.

He had lived so many years, his state of mind tempered like an undisturbed ancient well, yet at this moment, it was like a lake stirred by overwhelming waves.

”I always thought the name Little Qing was really unpleasant, but I never changed it because you gave it to me.”

The figure restrained the smile, also gazing at Su Han, with two lines of tears flowing from his eyes.

”Little Qing...”

Su Han trembled, unable to hold back any longer, rushed over, and embraced tightly.

Little Qing’s height was still about the same as Su Han’s; they just hugged each other for a long time without a word.

As the sun was setting, Little Qing finally smiled and said, ”You’re not falling for me, are you?”

”Get lost.”

Su Han took a deep breath, scolded, and then let go of Little Qing.

The figure in front of him was naturally Little Qing, who had accompanied him for over a year during the Ancient Period!

Su Han never expected to meet him here again. He thought the Ancient Era had passed, and with his trials soon advancing to the Ancient Era, the name Little Qing, this person, might only remain in his memory for a lifetime.

And everything that had happened before was now fully explained.

Whether it was the disappearance of the nine silver screens or the intervention of the Mysterious Turtle, it must have been Little Qing secretly helping.

...

”If it weren’t just under my jurisdiction, I would definitely have let the Green-Shell Turtle bite that guy to death.”

At sunset, the two sat on a vine, chatting leisurely.

”Green-Shell Turtle?”

Su Han’s mouth twitched slightly, coughing lightly, ”Alright, Green-Shell Turtle it is.”

”Why, did I say something wrong?” Little Qing wondered.

Su Han rolled his eyes, said something wrong? Like hell you did!

The creature was a Blue-Skinned Turtle, but in your mouth, it became a Green-Shell Turtle. Moreover, it’s a Mysterious Turtle that could make a top ten Eastern Domain expert like the Holy Spirit King cough blood with a single breath, yet you call it a Green-Shell Turtle, how disgraceful!
