Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor-Chapter 587 - 584: Tit for Tat (20 more updates!)

Dragon Martial Inn, belonging to Dragon Martial Trading House, is the largest inn in Dragon Martial City, featuring a total of one hundred thirty rooms, each of identical size.

Standing fifty-two stories tall, every floor houses three hundred eighty-eight rooms, and the cost for just one night in the cheapest room starts at five hundred Low-Grade Spirit Stones.

From this alone, one can see just how profitable Dragon Martial Trading House truly is.

Inns like this, aside from the initial setup, scarcely consume resources; it’s utterly a lucrative business.

Those who can afford to stay here are either rich or noble; none of them consider five hundred spirit stones a significant amount.

Following the lead of Nangong Yu, Su Han and the others arrived at a Dragon Martial Inn close to the central plaza.

Seeing Nangong Yu enter, the shopkeeper inside promptly showed his respect, "Young Palace of Jade, Master of Nangong Palace has instructed me to bring you here."

Nangong Yu nodded and winked at Su Han, as if to say, Look how influential I am.

To this, Su Han could only shake his head and smile.

"Wait here for me," Su Han said to Liuyun and the others.

Following the shopkeeper’s lead, Su Han and Nangong Yu were brought to a room in the center.

The room was enormous, not a guest room but more like a palace hall filled with luxurious decorations and dazzling lights, the epitome of extravagance.

When Su Han and the others arrived, they saw at once that there was a huge round table in the room.

Around the round table sat a total of ten people.

Among the nine people present, Su Han recognized no one except for one, the man he had once seen through a Light Barrier—Nangong Duanchen, Palace Master of One Slash Palace!

At that moment, Nangong Duanchen was sitting in the central position around the round table and smiled warmly as he saw Su Han and his group arrive.

"Father!"

Before Su Han could speak, Nangong Yu immediately ran over, rushing straight into Nangong Duanchen’s arms.

"You still recognize me as your father?"

Nangong Duanchen gently caressed Nangong Yu’s hair and said with a smile, "Haven’t seen you for years, nor did you send any messages. It seems I’m not that important in your eyes..."

"I’ve missed you so much!" Nangong Yu cooed.

"Alright, there are many people here. Let’s discuss our family sentiments later," Nangong Duanchen softly patted Nangong Yu on the shoulder.

Although Nangong Yu liked to act spoiled, she seemed genuinely afraid of her father and immediately stood obediently to the side, making faces at Su Han.

"Su Han, it’s an honor to meet Master of Nangong Palace," Su Han saluted Nangong Duanchen with his fists.

"We have met before, no need for so much courtesy."

Nangong Duanchen spoke with a smile, "Come, have a seat."

As a chair was brought over, Su Han sat next to Nangong Duanchen.

But the moment he sat down, he immediately felt waves of intense murderous intent, like a tide, rushing directly towards him.

The murderous intent spread out, solidifying as if turning into tangible, sharp blades, aiming directly at Su Han.

But before the murderous intent reached him, Nangong Duanchen coughed lightly, immediately making the murderous intent dissipate.

Su Han suddenly looked up, observing the people around him.

One of them, a man with a face showing signs of age, white long hair, and dressed in lavish golden robes, seemed especially imposing.

This elder, in Su Han’s sensation, was the one from whom the murderous intent was most intense.

Among the others, there was an old woman whose gaze toward Su Han carried an intense chill to the extremity.

There was also a child in red clothes. Similarly emanating a murderous aura. Upon seeing Su Han, a flash of red light gleamed in his eyes as he revealed a sinister smile.

Among the last two people was a young man in gray clothes, who appeared elegant and exceedingly handsome. However, his face bore a feminine softness that made him somewhat awkward to look at.

The very last person was a middle-aged woman.

Her features were far from beautiful, rather extremely ugly, with a face full of scars overlaid with numerous spots. At a glance, she looked almost like a monster.

"Let me introduce them."

Nangong Duanchen spoke calmly, facing Su Han, "That elder in the golden robe is named Yuani Ling, the Grand Elder of the Jade Void Palace, a powerhouse at the early stage of the Dragon Emperor Realm."

Upon hearing this, Su Han immediately understood. No wonder this person had shown such intense murderous intent toward him!

He remembered that back when the God-Slaying Pavilion still existed, it was Yuani Ling who, wielding the might of the Dragon Emperor Realm and leading the forces of the Jade Void Palace along with those from the Sect of the Battle God, Sword Immortal Tomb, and Giant Island, personally visited and with two strikes, obliterated the God-Slaying Pavilion!

If it were not for Su Han resurrecting everyone, the Phoenix Sect might have ceased to exist by now.

Taking a deep breath, Su Han narrowed his eyes and gave Yuani Ling a slight smile, "Great Elder Yuani Ling, you really are as unlikeable as the legends say."

Upon these words, everyone was momentarily stunned.

The four who had not shown any murderous intent immediately turned to stare at Su Han, dumbfounded.

Even Nangong Duanchen paused for a moment and then shook his head, laughing slightly.

They had all thought Su Han was about to say some flattering phrases, but instead, he straightforwardly insulted him!

"Very good!"

The murderous intent in Yuani Ling’s eyes intensified, "I hope you can continue to be so arrogant."

"I will," Su Han responded coolly.

"Alright."

Nangong Duanchen spoke again, pointing to the child in red, "This one is the Earth Ancestor from the Sect of the Battle God, a powerhouse in the Dragon Emperor Realm, Han Yunlai."

Su Han nodded slightly and also smiled, "How are the other commercial outposts of the Sect of the Battle God doing now?"

Upon hearing this, the room fell silent again.

Everyone knew that Su Han had once destroyed two third-rate outposts and a second-rate outpost of the Sect of the Battle God, even brazenly robbing them of four hundred million Spirit Stones, along with countless materials, pills, and weapons.

Su Han’s words were completely bringing up a sore subject.

"Sect Master Su need not concern yourself. Perhaps after your soul departs to the beyond, these outposts will fare even better," Han Yunlai said with a sinister smile, the red light in his eyes intensifying.

"Ahem."

Nangong Duanchen coughed, then said, "This fair-faced, handsome young man is the Green Immortal from the Sword Immortal Tomb, the reincarnation of the ninth ancestral patriarch, Moo Qinghai."

"Oh?"

Su Han’s eyes flickered, "Since you are the ninth ancestral patriarch, why pretend to be so young? And this appearance... Were you perhaps a woman before you were reincarnated?"

The four who had remained neutral were completely speechless.

Nangong Duanchen then looked towards Nangong Yu, who just spat out a puff of fragrance, indicating, as if saying, I know nothing.

"If you wish to become a woman, I can fulfill that wish for you," Moo Qinghai said ominously.

"I am not you, so let’s forget it," Su Han shook his head.

"This old woman is the tenth ancestral patriarch of the Immortal Dao Court, Du Yuehui," Nangong Duanchen added.

Su Han’s lips twitched, saying lightly, "That’s somewhat interesting. The old ancestor of Sword Immortal Tomb wants to turn from a man into a woman, and your name, it seems you want to turn from a woman into a man?"
