Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 1285: Chapter 1284: The Eve

As the Five Great Super Sects’ disciples made their reports, it wasn’t long before senior figures arrived where Su Han and the others were.

Laughably, this person was not any of the Sect Masters or Deputy Sect Masters of the Five Great Super Sects, nor was he a Dragon Emperor Realm Peak, Late Stage, or similar expert. He wasn’t even on the same Dragon Emperor Realm Early Stage level as Du Yuehui and Moo Qinghai back then.

This was a... Dragon God Realm.

This middle-aged person, though, had a beard on his face, looking extremely muscular, and approached Su Han and the others with a laughter.

His pace wasn’t very quick, nor did he exhibit any flustered expressions, as if he were taking a leisurely stroll.

Regarding this, Su Han didn’t feel anything, having already grown accustomed to the disdain from the Five Great Super Sects.

But One Slash Palace was different. When that middle-aged man arrived, Nangong Duanchen remained silent, but Mancheng furrowed his brows slightly, coldly snorting, ”Have all the Dragon Emperor Realms of the Five Great Super Sects died?”

”Please forgive us, seniors. The Sect Masters are all preoccupied with the matters of the Dragon Martial Tournament and have no time to spare to receive you,” the middle-aged man said.

”Is that so?” Mancheng’s eyes revealed a cold gleam.

As the strongest sect on the Dragon Martial Continent, when has One Slash Palace ever been treated with such indifference?

If it were only our own arrival, that would be one thing, but with the avatars of Nangong Duanchen and Baili Fenghan personally here, the Five Great Super Sects actually sent a Dragon God Realm to meet us?

Utterly laughable!

”I see you’re just full of yourselves?”

Mancheng added, ”What, just because you’ve hitched on some so-called geniuses from the starry sky, you think you can act all high and mighty? Really think you’re one of them in the starry sky?”

”Apologies, apologies, seniors,” the middle-aged man continued to smile apologetically, without saying anything else.

Being merely a Dragon God Realm, everyone had little interest in dealing with him, so with a wave of their hand, they intended to send this man away.

”Seniors, we have prepared many palaces and accommodations for you. Perhaps...”

”No need.”

Nangong Chenfeng waved his hand, interrupting the man: ”Aren’t you very busy? Go along with your business.”

”Very well, I shall take my leave,” the middle-aged man bowed and withdrew.

After he left, many people’s faces turned gloomy.

Su Han glanced at One Slash Palace, and couldn’t help but chuckle, ”What, did you expect the Five Great Super Sects to treat you like gods? That was in the past~”

”Sect Master Su, aren’t you angry?” Mancheng asked.

”Angry? Angry for what?”

Su Han shrugged: ”I’ve almost died at their hands multiple times. Compared to that, what’s this little matter?”

”True,” Mancheng nodded, though it was clear he was somewhat aggrieved.

No matter how high the state of mind of the Dragon Emperor Realm is, as cultivation base increases, so does self-esteem.

One Slash Palace doesn’t expect the Five Great Super Sects to be so courteous and respectful, but at least, they can’t be so arrogant, right?

”Don’t dwell on it. Getting angry is useless. Why not take a walk here? After all, compared to the past, this place is a familiar ground,” Su Han suggested.

”Alright,” everyone nodded.

...

After wandering around Dragon Martial City, apart from palaces and the Five Great Super Sects’ disciples, the only thing left was the Mecha Divine Statues that had once attacked the Phoenix Sect.

A total of thirty Mecha Divine Statues stood here, seemingly guarding Dragon Martial City, and Su Han sensed a once-familiar aura from these statues.

”Mecha Divine Statues comparable to Dragon Emperor Realm Early Stage, huh?”

Murmuring to himself, Su Han shook his head slightly.

When he first encountered the Mecha Divine Statues, they made the Phoenix Sect despair, as they were equivalent to the Dragon Emperor Realm, exceedingly powerful and robust, making them difficult to destroy.

But now...

With one palm, Su Han could destroy all these Mecha Divine Statues.

To him now, no amount of Mecha Divine Statues were anything more than fragile paper. If he wanted to destroy them, it would be as easy as pie.

The increase in strength also restored much of Su Han’s state of mind.

He gazed at everything around, mostly what the Five Great Super Sects had set up: formations, disciples, palaces, etc...

But whether conspiracy or open scheme, none of it mattered anymore to him.

He was about to leave Dragon Martial Continent, with the only remaining task being to annihilate the Five Great Super Sects.

And now... it’s imminent.

...

The day quickly passed.

The higher-ups of the Five Great Super Sects never came to see Su Han and the others, only fueling the anger of One Slash Palace’s experts further.

As for Su Han, that was another matter. After all, the Five Great Super Sects didn’t know what happened in the Barren Land, nor did they know how strong the Phoenix Sect had become.

But what about One Slash Palace?

In the past, even though they were both Super Sects, when people from the Five Great Super Sects saw One Slash Palace, they had to be courteous.

Now, not only weren’t they courteous, but not spitting directly at them was already quite good.

...

The next morning, people from the Holy Spirit Palace walked out of the Teleportation Formation.

Bai Nanxing arrived, as did Chen Dongli, along with Tang Yushi, the Chief Hall Master, and seven Vice Hall Masters including Yuwen Zhongcheng.

”Su Zun.”

As they emerged, they nodded toward Su Han immediately, even Bai Nanxing and Chen Dongli did the same.

Though there wasn’t any respect on their faces, the people of One Slash Palace could tell that Bai Nanxing and Chen Dongli seemed to have... a different attitude toward Su Han.

What exactly it was, they couldn’t say, but this shouldn’t have been the demeanor of Dragon Venerate Realm, after all, no matter how strong Su Han was, he was merely Dragon Emperor Realm Mid-Stage.

And this scene gave the people from One Slash Palace an even higher appreciation for Su Han.

After the Holy Spirit Palace, other Super Sects also arrived.

Apart from the Five Great Super Sects already present, the remaining three Super Sects, Sect of Peace, Divine Transformation Pavilion, Demon Domain, all arrived here.

They had no Teleportation Formation and could only come on foot, but thankfully, the distance wasn’t far, and they were all experts, so there were no losses incurred.

Upon their arrival, they didn’t meet with Su Han and the others but were directly invited by the Five Great Super Sects to other places.

Su Han and the others remained in one of the palaces, joking among themselves, while quietly waiting for the Dragon Martial Tournament to begin on the following day.

Night gradually descended.

There were thunderous roars and howls echoing outside Dragon Martial City.

It seemed that each night, these Extraterritorial Demons became more frenzied, attacking the formation madly, but with millions of disciples from the Five Great Super Sects maintaining it, the formation had never been breached.

The night deepened and then began to lighten.

The next day finally came.
