Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor-Chapter 979 - 978 Return!
Chapter 979: Chapter 978 Return!
Outside the Ancient Divine Mountain, Su Han walked out.
He had stayed inside the Ancient Divine Mountain for about half a month.
Xuan Yuan Wuqing and Bai Ling were still waiting outside for him. However, both of their faces showed some anxiety, and they only breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Su Han emerge.
"I thought you wouldn’t make it out before we had to leave."
Xuan Yuan Wuqing stepped forward, glanced at the pass shimmering in his hands, and said to Su Han, "Our passes have started to tremble, which obviously means the time has come. Barring any surprises, we have to leave here in no more than two hours." freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
"I’ll go with you," Su Han said with a smile.
"Together?"
Both were startled for a moment, and Bai Ling said, "I remember you have a Supreme Pass, right? Normally, you should be able to stay here longer."
"Indeed, that’s true."
Su Han nodded, then looked off into the distance, took a deep breath, and slowly said, "But on the Dragon Martial Continent, there are many people I care about, aren’t there?"
Upon hearing this, Xuan Yuan Wuqing and Bai Ling exchanged a glance and then fell silent.
Both sighed inwardly, knowing that once Su Han returned, the Dragon Martial Continent would surely be enveloped in a new storm of bloody turmoil.
It might even lead to instability in the positions of the Top Ten Super Sects!
Given Su Han’s character, surrounded and nearly killed by the Five Great Super Sects that day, he bore a deep-seated grudge of blood and sea. If he did not avenge this hatred, he would not be Su Baliu.
"I have obtained all that I should, and what cannot be obtained, I can’t carry with me. It would be a waste of time to continue staying here. I might as well go back to see those ’friends and family’."
The words ’friends and family’ were emphasized heavily, and Xuan Yuan Wuqing and Bai Ling both understood the meaning behind them.
"Su Han, though I don’t know what benefits you gained here, I feel your cultivation base is still at the Dragon God Realm. No matter how many skills you possess, you’re unlikely to be a match for the Dragon Emperor Realm, especially since there are even stronger terrifying experts in the Five Great Super Sects who have yet to emerge. Seeking trouble with them now isn’t the best strategy."
Xuan Yuan Wuqing advised.
As the oldest family among the Thirteen Families, the Xuanyuan Clan naturally understands the foundational strength of these super sects, even witnessing their rise.
"I understand."
Su Han nodded, then displayed a cold smile, "But at this moment, I’m not someone they can kill at will anymore."
"If you’re determined, I won’t persuade you further. When you return to the clan, I will report this matter to our Clan Leader. If you face hardship, the Xuanyuan Clan will do everything to assist you!" Xuan Yuan Wuqing said solemnly.
Upon hearing this, Bai Ling glanced at Xuan Yuan Wuqing, unable to comprehend why the Xuanyuan Clan—an originally unrelated family—was now so close to Su Han.
"Then thank you."
Su Han cupped his fists towards Xuan Yuan Wuqing, and then said, "Let’s set aside my matters for now. Consider carefully what I mentioned earlier about the Corps Commander."
These words were primarily addressed to Bai Ling.
Bai Ling was silent, not because she was unwilling, but because she was powerless.
"I should personally visit the Holy Spirit Palace; if they show me some leniency, they might release you once," said Su Han to Bai Ling.
"Alright, I’m waiting for you," Bai Ling said.
"Buzz~"
At that moment, the space rings on Xuan Yuan Wuqing and Bai Ling both began to vibrate. The token emerged and ascended into the void, dissipating with a roar and transforming into a gigantic vortex that appeared in the sky.
"Is it time?"
Both looked up, smiling bitterly, "During this trip to the Holy Domain of the Demon Immortal, aside from gaining insight into the Archaic Era, we haven’t gained any practical benefits."
"Heaven and Earth’s creations are a surprise when obtained, and it’s alright if they’re not," Su Han said calmly.
"Indeed." Both nodded.
Staring at the vortex in the void, Su Han turned back towards the Ancient Divine Mountain, silently saying, "Little Qing, I’m leaving."
"I know..."
Little Qing sighed reluctantly, the sound coming from within the Ancient Divine Mountain, "Remember, you mustn’t die; you must... come back to see me. If there ever comes a day, maybe you could take me out of the Ancient Divine Mountain, so that I wouldn’t be the Guardian God here forever. Instead, I could live freely in this domain like you."
"If possible, I will definitely help you!" Su Han said.
"Hua!"
Little Qing was also resolute. After Su Han’s words fell, somehow, Su Han’s Supreme Pass flew out of the space ring, transforming into a vortex hovering above his head.
"I’m leaving."
After saying the final words to the Ancient Divine Mountain, Su Han stepped into the void and headed straight for the vortex.
As for Xuan Yuan Wuqing and Bai Ling, they also proceeded directly toward their vortex without hesitation.
At this moment, in the sky above the Archaic Era, multiple vortices appeared with figures rising, intending to enter the vortices.
As he ascended into the sky, Su Han saw Nan Qing, and she saw him.
Their eyes met briefly before both withdrew their gazes and entered their respective vortex.
The episode in the Holy Domain of the Demon Immortal ended here. It would be another three thousand years before it reopened, by which time Su Han and the others would no longer have the opportunity to enter.
...
On the Dragon Martial Continent, Dragon Martial City, in a certain inn.
In the originally quiet room, a vortex suddenly appeared, and shortly after, a figure stepped out from it.
It was Su Han!
"Didn’t expect it to be here."
Surveying the surroundings, Su Han chuckled; he had assumed he would return to the same place he entered the Holy Domain of the Demon Immortal.
Opening the window for a look, he saw the sky outside painted red, with waves of a bloody aura emanating—a familiar scent originating from the Extraterritorial Demon.
Su Han extended his divine sense, then retracted it moments later, murmuring, "Three years have already passed?"
In three years, the Dragon Martial Continent remained unchanged, except the aura of the Extraterritorial Demon grew denser.
"This calamity seems poised to erupt soon..." Su Han took a breath.
Without hesitation, Su Han pulled out the Ruyi Seal.
Using the Ruyi Seal at this moment faced no obstruction; after so much time, the Five Great Super Sects wouldn’t continue expending such resources to keep Dragon Martial City sealed.
Besides, everyone presumed Su Han dead; even the Five Great Super Sects thought so, making the continued blockade pointless.
With the Ruyi Seal opened, a teleportation formation appeared before him. Su Han stepped forward into it, his figure vanishing without a trace.
