Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 1532: Chapter 1531: Hongli, I’m Sorry!

It’s hard to imagine that a powerful figure of the Third-Grade Dao Venerable Order would kneel before an ant like me, a mere Second Grade Spirit Transformation, and plead desperately.

The Dao Sovereign Realm, in the Lower-Class Star Region, just below the Heavenly Emperor, represents the peak strength, worthy of being called a mighty being.

When they traverse the entirety of the Lower-Class Star Region, if their aura is revealed, all will bow in worship.

Yet at this moment...

”Enough!”

Su Han furrowed his brow and shouted, ”Don’t even mention the Lower-Class Star Region; even across the entire Milky Way Starry Sky, those who can save her are few and far between. Pleading with me is useless!”

The monkey’s forehead was red from bowing repeatedly.

In reality, anyone with a bit of sense could guess that Su Han absolutely couldn’t save Hongli. No matter how strong, he couldn’t do it.

The monkey’s desperate pleas seemed merely to vent the boundless sorrow and grief in its heart.

After Su Han’s words fell, it simply sat there dazed, lost in thought.

Su Han was also silent, gazing at Hongli’s massive form, once again plunged into memories.

”Creak!”

It was unclear how much time had passed when the chain embedded in Hongli’s left hand suddenly trembled, making a creaking sound.

The monkey whirled around, and Su Han snapped back to clarity, both gazes turning to look at Hongli.

”Creak, creak...”

As they watched, all five chains began to tremble at that moment.

Hongli’s tightly closed eyes suddenly opened wide!

She lifted her head sharply, eyes bloodshot with endless streaks of red, her face somewhat ferocious, completely ignoring the monkey’s presence.

”Yuan Ling... you deserve to die!!!”

An endless roar echoed from her mouth.

”Yuan Ling!”

Su Han’s body trembled, and insuppressible fury erupted in his eyes once more.

”It truly is you... It could only be you!!!” Su Han screamed internally.

”Mother... Mother!”

Seeing Hongli awaken, the monkey’s vacant eyes immediately lit up with spirit and in a single leap, arrived in front of Hongli.

”You...”

When she saw this monkey, the redness in Hongli’s eyes immediately subsided.

She stared blankly at the monkey, seemingly in shock, or perhaps disbelief.

A moment later, the fury faded and a gentle look surfaced in Hongli’s eyes.

”Child... my child...”

Hongli struggled, as if trying to reach out to caress the monkey, but the chains pinned her down, making it impossible for her hands to move.

”Mother!!”

Tears in the monkey’s eyes streamed forth uncontrollably as it rushed into Hongli’s embrace.

”Why have you come...”

Hongli spoke, her tone much weaker, tears slowly flowing from her seemingly hollow eyes.

”Mother, are you alright?” The monkey raised its hand to wipe away Hongli’s tears.

”I’m fine, fine...”

Hongli nodded, then as if recalling something, her expression suddenly changed: ”How did you come here? Your fur... How did you find this place?”

”Someone brought me,” said the monkey.

”Who?!”

Alertness immediately flashed in Hongli’s eyes.

The number of people who know about this place is very, very few, almost none.

She was worried that someone had discovered her relationship with this monkey and deliberately deceived it here, intending to seal it as well.

But quickly, that thought vanished.

Because she could feel the monkey’s aura, which compared to hers was very weak, very weak, if someone truly wanted to seal it here, they wouldn’t need to deceive it, they could easily capture it.

”It was me.”

A low voice echoed through the space, and Su Han’s figure appeared before Hongli.

”Who are you?!” Hongli stared at Su Han, eyes filled with chilling intensity.

”Hongli...”

Su Han’s figure slowly rose, coming to Hongli’s side, extending his hand as he did once before, patting Hongli’s head.

Hongli was stunned.

This feeling was so familiar...

How many years has it been?

Since being captured, brought here, and sealed until now, she never felt this again.

”What are you doing?!”

Seeing Su Han dare to touch his mother’s head, the monkey immediately shouted, almost attacking.

But to this, Su Han seemed as if he didn’t notice.

His gaze was gentle, as if he had returned to the past, his hand softly caressing Hongli’s head, speaking softly, ”Are you alright?”

”You, you...”

Hongli’s body trembled, looking up and down at Su Han, and he didn’t quite resemble the man in her memory.

”It’s me.”

Su Han smiled and nodded, as if he and Hongli had a telepathic connection.

”Tens of millions of years...”

Su Han sighed, ”I originally thought I could reach that legendary realm, break through the shackles of Heaven and Earth, and stand equal with the Heavenly Dao, letting all beings be as eternal as Heaven and Earth, but I never imagined that dream was so far away, turning into a mere luxury, separating us for tens of millions of years, you sealed here suffering such torment, while I, too, went through reincarnation, living anew as the times change!”

”Little... Master?”

Hongli trembled as she spoke, her eyes full of disbelief.

Su Han smiled, his dark eyes filled with indescribable heartbreak.

”Call me once more, I wish to hear it.”

”Little Master, Little Master... Little Master!!!”

The familiar title that tens of millions of years ago Su Han had always harbored bitterness for and refused to accept, now came from Hongli’s mouth.

The monkey was dumbfounded, standing there, staring blankly, unsure what was happening.

It could sense, after Hongli saw Su Han, she seemed even more agitated than when she saw itself.

Why is this?

”In the Deep Sea of the Heavenly Domain, you set off to find medicinal ingredients for me, yet never returned, suddenly vanishing. I searched the entire Holy Domain, even combing through the High-Grade Star Domain and Middle-Class Star Region.”

Su Han seemed to mumble, or perhaps he was speaking to Hongli.

”I never believed, with your power, that you would come to the Lower-Class Star Region, hence I didn’t come searching.”

”I once speculated you might really have found the ’Heavenly Monkey’ clan you always spoke of, therefore you abandoned me, left me, you... forgot me.”

”I spent millions of years searching for you, but ultimately returned disappointed.”

”I never thought, as a friend of mine, Su Han, that someone would dare to harm you during my lifetime.”

”Thus, I didn’t search for you further, because I once thought you left of your own will, not wanting to return.”

”So, I stopped looking, fearing that finding you would bring guilt from you and sadness to me.”

”Time’s reincarnation wheel, perhaps there’s really an eye watching over. I’ve met you once more.”

”And you, in the past grievance I bore against you, have endured such inhuman pain here.” 𝑓𝑟ℯℴ𝓂

Su Han slowly looked up, gazing at Hongli, two lines of tears streaming slowly down his eyes.

”Hongli... I’m sorry.”
