Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 1412: Chapter 1411: Get Lost

”Alright, since the quantity and ranking of the task items have already been announced, those who didn’t qualify for the third stage are eliminated. Those ranking in the top ten thousand, rest for three days and prepare for the third stage of the assessment,” Xiao Yaozi continued.

Upon hearing this, those who were eliminated sighed immediately.

Their aptitude had passed, but they were eliminated in this second stage which tested strength and fortune. Although there are three chances for assessment, the nearest one is a thousand years away!

To be selected directly this time, wouldn’t that be wonderful?

...

The ones who were selected for the third stage sat down cross-legged right there.

Before officially becoming formal disciples, they weren’t qualified to enter the Heavenly Mountain Pavilion.

As for Su Han, as soon as the Grand Elder Xiaoyaozi finished speaking, he flashed and headed straight up into the sky.

Seeing him like this, many people were puzzled.

At this moment, Su Han was absolutely the center of attention; his every move drew numerous gazes.

As Su Han’s figure flickered, he arrived before the Elder of Inner Sect, Hu Yi.

”Elder Hu.” Su Han cupped his hands and bowed slightly.

”Hmm.”

Seeing Su Han arrive, a hint of joy flickered deep in Hu Yi’s eyes, but outwardly, he maintained a very indifferent demeanor, as if exhaling from his nose.

Su Han knew he was putting on an act and chuckled inwardly, saying, ”Elder Hu, earlier this disciple killed that Zheng Minghuan, specifically coming to plead guilty to you.”

”Why did you kill him?” Elder Hu asked indifferently.

”Before the first stage of assessment, this person constantly ridiculed and belittled this disciple. You also witnessed the situation on Savage Forest Star before, where he and Song Camp colluded to set me up. I’m not someone who is oblivious to such things. In a fit of anger, I accidentally killed both of them, and I hope Elder Hu will forgive me.”

Hearing this, Hu Yi’s eyes widened.

You accidentally killed both of them?

However, Hu Yi still took a breath and said, ”This matter is evident to this Elder too, but after all, they are fellow disciples. Don’t make such a mistake again in the future. Our Heavenly Mountain Pavilion rarely produces a few talented disciples; if you kill them all, how can our Heavenly Mountain Pavilion cultivate the future pillars?”

”Yes, disciple understands his mistake,” Su Han replied.

”Go away then...” Hu Yi waved his hand.

The people below were left dumbfounded.

That’s it?

Indeed, that was straightforward!

If Su Han wasn’t so talented and powerful, would Elder Hu have let him off so easily?

Of course, there’s no ’if.’ If there really were ’if,’ Su Han wouldn’t have been able to kill Zheng Minghuan.

After Hu Yi waved his hand, Su Han did not leave.

”Is there something else?” Hu Yi’s brows furrowed slightly.

Su Han hesitated a little and said, ”Although this disciple has already acknowledged Elder Lul Tianfeng as my Master, I feel guilty for killing your direct disciple and causing you great loss, so... I wish to acknowledge you as my Master as well. I wonder what your thoughts are?”

”What?!”

Hu Yi suddenly stood up, staring at Su Han, ”Are you serious?”

”Hmm.” Su Han nodded slightly.

”Hahaha...”

Hu Yi immediately laughed heartily, ”This is naturally excellent, indeed excellent, hahaha!”

The frustration he had felt vanished in an instant.

This extraordinarily talented little fellow actually wants to acknowledge me as his Master?

A pie from the sky!

Compared to Su Han, what is Zheng Minghuan? Besides, Hu Yi had not invested any resources or effort in Zheng Minghuan. If he died, so be it. With Su Han to make up for it, even if ten Zheng Minghuans died, Hu Yi wouldn’t say much.

And the crowd below, upon seeing this scene, was left utterly speechless about Su Han.

Acknowledging another Elder of the Inner Sect as a Master?

What are you even thinking?

You don’t want the Pavilion Master or the Deputy Pavilion Master; why do you specifically want to acknowledge these Outer and Inner Sect Elders as your Masters?

Does your brain work at all?

Regardless of what they thought, after leaving Hu Yi, Su Han went to Lul Tianfeng.

”This disciple acknowledged a new Master without permission and hopes Master will forgive me,” Su Han said.

”No problem.”

Lul Tianfeng waved his hand, ”With your talent, even acknowledging ten more Masters would be warranted. Relying on me alone, I truly can’t teach you anything.”

This wasn’t an exaggeration. Lul Tianfeng’s cultivation base was only Second Grade Spirit Transformation Realm. The strength Su Han displayed on Savage Forest Star was comparable to First Grade Spirit Transformation Realm. With a minor realm increase, he would reach Second Grade, and by then, how could Lul Tianfeng teach Su Han?

Let alone a future scenario, even now, Lul Tianfeng didn’t know what he could teach Su Han.

It felt like...

Su Han taking him as Master and Hu Yi as Master were acts of spontaneity. Perhaps Su Han never intended for the two to actually guide him?

Such thoughts crossed Lul Tianfeng’s mind.

...

After leaving Lul Tianfeng, Su Han returned to Chen Fan’s side.

Chen Fan couldn’t even be bothered to ask what was going on in Su Han’s mind, rolling his eyes and being indifferent.

Su Han shrugged with a smile, understanding why Chen Fan felt this way, and without any further explanation, sat down cross-legged.

As soon as he sat down, a figure started walking over from a short distance away.

”Senior Brother Su, the trip to Savage Forest Star was quite a harvest!” Mu Lie struck up a conversation.

”What do you want?” Chen Fan frowned.

”Senior Brother Su’s brilliance is dazzling and his strength formidable. I, Mu, feel great admiration!” Mu Lie smiled, appearing overly eager.

Su Han didn’t even cast Mu Lie a glance, simply closing his eyes to rest.

Seeing Su Han’s indifference, Chen Fan couldn’t help but let out a cold laugh, also ignoring him.

Mu Lie felt a bit awkward. He had come over not for any other purpose but to flatter Su Han.

Unexpectedly, Su Han, who was courteous to others, ignored him completely.

After mulling it over, Mu Lie rubbed his hands together, brought out a space ring, and said, ”Senior Brother Su, inside this space ring are a thousand spirit crystals, what I saved through scrimping and saving. I hope Senior Brother Su will accept it with a smile. Previously, I spoke out of turn, and I hope Senior Brother Su won’t hold it against me.”

Hearing this, Su Han finally opened his eyes and looked up.

Mu Lie’s face lit up with joy as he quickly presented the storage ring.

Chen Fan frowned, watching this, thinking that Su Han was genuinely moved by a thousand spirit crystals.

Many people around also watched, secretly disapproving of Mu Lie, thinking he was too calculating.

But as Su Han stared at Mu Lie, and as Mu Lie’s face filled with anticipation, Su Han slowly uttered one word.

”Scram.”

Upon hearing this, Chen Fan’s frown instantly relaxed.

Meanwhile, Mu Lie’s expression changed, with some gloom flickering in his eyes.
