Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor-Chapter 983 - 982: Nangong Yu’s Fury
Chapter 983: Chapter 982: Nangong Yu’s Fury
Nan Qing spreading the news that Su Han is still alive was clearly with ill intentions from the outset.
Firstly, few people know whether this news is true or false. If true, then given the enmity between Su Han and the Five Great Super Sects, they will surely scheme against Su Han once more.
If false, then Nan Qing spreading the news deliberately, his intentions are more reprehensible!
He wants to use this matter to make the Five Great Super Sects, who had originally let down their guard, to target the Phoenix Sect again!
In Nangong Yu’s eyes, even if Su Han truly is alive, this matter must absolutely not be known to outsiders.
At least, it shouldn’t be spread at this moment.
Yet upon returning, Nan Qing’s first action was to inform the disciples of One Slash Palace that Su Han is alive.
Though not publicly proclaiming it, with so many disciples knowing, what difference does it make?
"I’m not lying; Sister, you really misunderstood me," Nan Qing shook his head and said.
"Nan Qing, I know your intentions, but I also hope you can understand the gap between you and Su Han!" Nangong Yu said coldly.
Upon hearing this, Nan Qing’s face immediately turned darker.
This was what Su Han told him during the Archaic Era, and after saying it, he slapped him hard in the face, not only entering the Ancient Divine Mountain but also using the Mysterious Turtle Power to make Nan Qing vomit blood and flee in panic.
Now, these same words were again spoken by Nangong Yu, and while Nan Qing might not care about Su Han, he definitely cares about Nangong Yu.
To him, this was an insult, a looking down upon him—a feeling of always being inferior to Su Han.
"Where on earth is Su Baliu stronger?"
Nan Qing gritted his teeth, proclaiming: "I, Nan Qing, started cultivating at six, advanced to the Dragon Blood Realm at eight, reached the Dragon Spirit Realm at thirteen, attained the Dragon Pill Realm at eighteen, and now, not yet thirty, have already reached the Dragon God Realm Peak! That Wang Family Mo Ancestor, if Su Baliu can kill him, so can I!"
"Don’t talk about him surviving multiple Dragon Emperor Realm attacks and escaping; with One Slash Palace and the Xuanyuan Clan, Eastern Ancestor and others to aid, I would escape just as well!"
"In terms of looks, he doesn’t match me. In terms of status, we are worlds apart. In terms of talent, he hasn’t progressed past the Dragon God Realm Early Stage. What on earth do you see in him?!"
These final words were nearly shouted by Nan Qing, his face red with anger.
Around them, the disciples slightly retreated at this moment, silently and not daring to say a word.
"You?"
Nangong Yu coldly laughed, looking at Nan Qing, stating: "This is your gap with Su Han! You are overestimating yourself, arrogant and pompous, just a frog at the bottom of a well!"
"Looks? Is the Dragon Martial Continent a place for judging looks? Status? He is the dignified Phoenix Sect Leader; in six years, he’s pushed Phoenix Sect to the status of a First-Class Sect. Phoenix Sect’s influence on the Dragon Martial Continent is immense; you can’t ignore it even if you want to!"
"Could you achieve that?"
"Moreover, though you are Father’s direct disciple, Su Han was personally granted the Young Palace Order, his status equal to mine, and upon meeting him, you should respectfully bow. Am I correct?"
"As for talent... speaking of this, I find it laughable; you know Su Han is at the Dragon God Realm Early Stage, while you are at the Dragon God Realm Peak. Even if your powers are equal, in terms of realm, he is far beneath you; you think you can compare with him? That’s just a fanciful dream!"
Nangong Yu was also burning with anger at this moment, speaking without mercy.
Since Su Han was besieged and killed, her heart has harbored endless fury. As for Nan Qing’s thoughts towards her, Nangong Yu has always known, yet she never exposed it, never imagined Nan Qing’s intentions would be so treacherous.
"Enough!"
Nan Qing was utterly scolded by Nangong Yu, his face red, feeling an impulse to lose control.
If the person before him wasn’t Nangong Yu, he would’ve already acted.
"What, you commit vile deeds, and don’t allow others to speak?" Nangong Yu snorted coldly.
Nan Qing took a deep breath, slowly saying: "Sister, no matter how you look at it, I’m still a direct disciple of the Palace Master, your senior brother. From the perspective of One Slash Palace, you’re not qualified to speak to me this way. As for Su Baliu, whether he’s dead or alive, what is it to me? If he survives, he’s fortunate; if dead, it’s his own fault!"
"You!"
Su Han is the untouchable sanctum in Nangong Yu’s heart. Hearing Nan Qing speak this way, she instantly felt her aura surge, with a faint intent to act.
"Alright, alright."
At this moment, Zhou Jie came from afar, looked at Nan Qing and then Nangong Yu, and then forcibly led the latter away from the place.
Watching them leave, Nan Qing’s face grew even darker, punching the ground fiercely, raising some dust.
...
On a certain peak, Zhou Jie and Nangong Yu stood here.
"Senior Brother Zhou, tell me, is Su Han really still alive?" Nangong Yu looked at Zhou Jie, eyes full of anticipation.
Zhou Jie’s brows lightly furrowed, saying: "Whether he is alive, I’m not sure, because during the Archaic Era, neither of us existed; we inhabited the bodies of people from that era. But back then, that person admitted he was Su Han, and when he left, he indeed used the Supreme Pass."
"He returned too?" Nangong Yu’s eyes brightened.
"Hmm."
Zhou Jie nodded: "As for whether it’s true or false, a trip to the Phoenix Sect will tell."
"I’m going now."
Nangong Yu said little and turned to leave.
"Sister, wait!"
At that instant, Zhou Jie suddenly spoke: "There are things that shouldn’t be said, but I must. You are, after all, part of One Slash Palace, and Su Han already has a wife and child—whether you truly love him, you must consider how Su Han feels. Also, Senior Brother Nan Qing, there’s no need to become so hostile towards him; in truth, we are the true family."
"Him?"
Nangong Yu sneered: "Senior Brother Zhou, you know my disposition well; I judge people not by talent, status, or looks, but by character! Nan Qing’s character, obviously, is already at the lowest point; if he weren’t somewhat talented, I would undoubtedly have Father expel him from the sect as a direct disciple!"
Upon these words falling, Nangong Yu turned to leave the peak, leaving Zhou Jie to sigh quietly alone.
Expel Nan Qing from the sect?
One must admit, with Nan Qing’s talent, even as Nangong Yu is Nangong Duanchen’s daughter, she couldn’t make it happen.
