Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 1041: Chapter 1040: I Owe You an Apology!

Ning Yihai’s face looked extremely unpleasant. If it had been before the confrontation with Su Han, he would not have hesitated at Su Han’s words and wouldn’t even have waited for Nan Hong to pass the Dragon Emperor Tribulation before making Su Han aware of the consequences of such arrogance.

After all, he was in the Dragon Emperor Realm; the Dragon Emperor was like the heavens, not to be insulted or humiliated!

But at this moment, it was after his fight with Su Han.

Although Ning Yihai himself did not suffer any serious injuries, he understood clearly that Su Han had held back.

Even though Su Han’s previous harsh words were not wrong, this, after all, was inside the One Slash Palace, and Ning Yihai was Nangong Duanchen’s esteemed disciple, the only one among the thirty million disciples of the One Slash Palace to be in the Dragon Emperor Realm.

Among these disciples, he was akin to a belief, a role model; Ning Yihai knew very well, it was precisely because of this that Su Han held back.

And precisely because he understood this, Ning Yihai knew that Su Han could not allow him to repeatedly act without consequence. Given Su Han’s character, if he could hold back before, that was already exceedingly generous. If he were to be unwise again and attempt to team up with Nan Hong to defeat Su Han, then what Su Han had just said... would truly become reality.

”Hoo...”

Thinking of this, Ning Yihai let out a slight sigh and said to Nan Hong, ”This was originally a grievance between you and Su Zun. I shouldn’t have intervened; before, I helped because you were in the midst of a breakthrough. Now that you’ve completed your breakthrough, and Su Zun won’t interfere with you crossing the tribulation, handle the matters after crossing it yourself.”

With those words, Ning Yihai’s figure became illusory and then disappeared.

Seeing this scene, all the disciples of the One Slash Palace were momentarily stunned and then sighed in their hearts.

Even the Senior Brother of the Dragon Emperor Realm feared Su Zun to such an extent?

No one was foolish enough to truly believe Ning Yihai’s words. Anyone with the slightest bit of sense knew that Ning Yihai was afraid of Su Han’s threat.

The sighs of the One Slash Palace’s disciples were not because Ning Yihai feared Su Han, but because the white-clad man before them had truly transformed from the one who was once surrounded and admired to be called ’Su Zun’ by might, making even the Dragon Emperor Realm have no choice but to retreat...

The true Su Zun!

But over on Nan Hong’s side, his face was even nastier, to the point of wanting to vomit blood.

He wanted to team up with Ning Yihai, which was already a kind of gamble. If Ning Yihai had agreed, both of them striking at Su Han together, even if they couldn’t win, at least they shouldn’t lose to Su Han.

But Ning Yihai actually refused him!

In front of so many people, he directly abandoned his dignity as a Dragon Emperor and refused him!

In this way, the words he just uttered undoubtedly became the fuse, making Su Han dislike him even more, and hate him more intensely!

”Hahaha, this is the Dragon Emperor, this is our Senior Brother!”

Nan Hong laughed angrily, ”Did you see that, not even the courage for a fight, what qualifications does he have to be our Senior Brother of the One Slash Palace!”

Everyone remained silent, but in their hearts, they all thought Nan Hong was a fool.

The proverbial ’one who knows the times is a Junjie’ holds; if you know you can’t win and insist on fighting, what is that if not courting death? Only someone cracking would do something like that.

”Phew, phew, phew!”

At this moment, figures emerged from Wangyang Mountain, a total of six, moving at incredible speed, appearing in the sky above Moon-Watching Mountain in an instant.

Seeing these six people, Su Han frowned slightly, sighed inwardly, cupped his fists, and saluted, ”Su Han greets all seniors.”

Among these six, two were dressed in the Earth Sacrifice robes of One Slash Palace, while the other four were a bald man, a middle-aged man, an elder, and a woman.

All were people who had assisted Su Han when he was being besieged!

The bald man was the Dragon Slayer of One Slash Palace. As for the elder, the middle-aged man, and the woman’s identities, Su Han didn’t know, but all three were Dragon Emperor Realm without exception.

When Su Han was besieged, seven Dragon Emperor Realms from One Slash Palace had appeared, besides these six, there was also Nangong Chenfeng.

Su Han remembered clearly all those who had ever helped him, and he also understood very well why it was them who had appeared.

Of course, One Slash Palace knew he was one who remembers kindness. The presence of these people seemed to be to help Nan Hong pass his Dragon Emperor Tribulation, but in reality... it was to mediate.

Clearly, One Slash Palace couldn’t really sit idle while a Dragon Emperor Realm was crippled by Su Han. If Nan Hong hadn’t broken through, or if he’d failed, perhaps One Slash Palace truly wouldn’t have intervened, even if Nan Hong was Nangong Duanchen’s direct disciple, closing one eye and letting it go.

But Nan Hong did break through, and he succeeded. He had advanced to the Dragon Emperor Realm, and once he crossed the Dragon Emperor Tribulation, he’d be a true Dragon Emperor!

Such a person would be a major asset to One Slash Palace, and ultimately, One Slash Palace had to step in.

This is why Su Han frowned, why he sighed.

”Haha, who would’ve thought Su Zun would remember us old fellows.”

The bald man laughed heartily. When he acted that day, Su Han borrowed his hand to kill Lin Fan. He was displeased then, but now it seemed those feelings had faded.

”All seniors have been immensely kind to Su Han; how could I ever forget?”

Su Han smiled bitterly and shook his head, ”In the presence of all seniors, it wouldn’t be appropriate to mention the name ’Su Zun’; please, just call me Su Han.”

”That’s unacceptable.”

The elder chuckled, ”Even if we can’t call you Su Zun, we must at least call you Sect Master Su. With your current strength, you’ve earned such a title.”

Su Han once again shook his head with a bitter smile, saying nothing more.

”We came here this time, first to help Nan Hong pass the Dragon Emperor Tribulation, and second...”

After a slight pause, the elder continued, ”There’s no need for us to say more; you understand what the matter is. As Yihai mentioned, let bygones be bygones. You’ve already gotten what you deserved, and retrieved what needed to return. How about showing us some face and letting it go?”

”Alright.”

Without any hesitation, Su Han agreed, so straightforwardly it stunned the elder and the others momentarily.

”With seniors intervening, Su Han cannot refuse, thus I take my leave.”

Having said that, Su Han once more cupped his fists in a salute to the six, and was about to leave.

”Wait a moment.”

The elder hurriedly spoke, ”Won’t you stay to watch the Thirty-Three Heavens’ Dragon Emperor Tribulation? It could benefit you in your future tribulation crossing.”

”No,” Su Han smiled, shaking his head.

”Then you can’t leave yet.”

The elder sternly spoke, looking at Nan Qing and Nan Hong and said coldly, ”They still owe you an apology!”
