Su Han and Pang Qing quickly dissected the fiend beasts’ corpses and immediately rushed out of the fiend beast forest after that.
Pang Qing never wanted to return to this forest again.
‘Once bitten, twice shy.’ Pang Qing had escaped death this time, and would never forget the things that happened today.
“In total, there’s three hundred and eighty-one grade-one fiend beast core crystals, and eighty-four grade-two fiend beast core crystals.”
Pang Qing’s eyes contained extreme excitement when the two exited the fiend beast forest.
There were more than four hundred fiend crystals in total.
When was the last time Pang Qing had seen so many fiend crystals?
The two needed to pack the fiend crystals in several bags in order to carry all of them.
“Although there’s more grade-one fiend crystals, grade-two fiend crystals are more valuable. These eighty-four grade-two fiend crystals are worth much more,” Su Han said.
“Yes.” Pang Qing nodded.
Grade-two fiend crystals were several times more expensive than grade-one fiend crystals. One grade-one fiend crystal could fetch around three hundred to five hundred gold pieces, whereas a grade-two fiend crystal was worth fifteen hundred to two thousand gold pieces.
“Here; take these.”
Su Han tossed two bags to Pang Qing. One of them contained grade-one fiend crystals, and the other had grade-two fiend crystals.
“Th-this is too much…” Pang Qing hurriedly said.
The two bags had at least fifty grade-one fiend crystals and around twenty grade-two fiend crystals.
Pang Qing hadn’t really contributed to this, as Su Han had killed all the fiend beasts himself. One could even argue that Su Han had saved his life. Although Pang Qing desired the fiend crystals, he also wanted to save face.
“I said ‘take it.’ You helped me divert a portion of the fiend beasts earlier,” Su Han said. “Moreover, I’m giving you these fiend crystals in exchange for your support in the clan.”
“I am a mere guest official of the clan—a guard captain. I don’t have any authority in the clan, so I don’t think my support will be useful.” Pang Qing shook his head in self-mockery.
“You report for First Uncle Su Yunlie. Your support would be quite useful.” Su Han smiled faintly.
“Oh, right; I remember I promised to tell you a big secret if we survived!” Pang Qing suddenly remembered.
Su Han found his situation amusing.
As the Ancient Dragon Fiend Emperor in his past life, what had he not seen? Su Han wondered what the ‘big secret’ was going to be.
“Alright; tell me,” said Su Han.
“Young Master Su Han, do you know why I was unscathed despite being chased by so many fiend beasts?” Pang Qing asked Su Han rhetorically.
Su Han shook his head.
“It’s because I found a cave!” Pang Qing said. “It was a big cave, but well hidden. It was covered with bushes, and I fell into it accidentally.”
“Oh?”
Su Han asked, “So what’s in the cave?”
“I don’t know either. However, after I fell in, the fiend beasts only surrounded the cave but didn’t dare to go inside. Shortly afterwards, they all left. If I didn’t have to meet you here, I would have definitely waited for all of them to leave before coming back out,” Pang Qing said.
“This was the big secret?” Su Han ridiculed, stressing the word ‘big’.
Pang Qing immediately got nervous. “The cave isn’t the main point. The main point is that I saw a bright green light flash in the darkness. When it did, I suddenly reached the peak Dragon Blood Realm from the late-stage Dragon Blood Realm.”
“Hmm?”
Su Han took it seriously now.
Just a mere beam of green light had made Pang Qing a peak Dragon Blood Realm cultivator?
“Are you sure your cultivation went up because you saw the green light? You should know that many cultivators break through when they are stimulated in combat. Maybe you’re one of them,” said Su Han.
“Definitely not!”
Pang Qing explained, “I am sure of the cause of my breakthrough. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have claimed to know a big secret!”
“Alright; I understand. Don’t tell anyone about this; keep it between us.” Su Han nodded.
Su Han was in charge of the holy realm in his past life, so he was indifferent to a lot of things. However, now that he had reincarnated and lost his cultivation, he was eager to get what he needed.
“I won’t tell a single soul,” said Pang Qing.
“Come and meet me after a few days. I’ll make you a secret technique that’s suited to you.” Su Han’s eyes flashed.
“Secret technique?” Pang Qing felt a bit unsure.
“Oh, it’s what you guys call a dragon technique.”
Su Han laughed and walked ahead.
“Make me a dragon technique that’s… suited for me?”
Pang Qing looked at Su Han’s back in disbelief—this was a dragon technique they were talking about, after all.
Even the simplest dragon techniques were all passed down from the hands of powerful seniors.
However, despite not believing it, Pang Qing still somehow felt full of excitement for Su Han’s ‘dragon technique that was suited to him’.
“Perhaps it’s because I witnessed too many miracles from him today. However, he’s only a Dragon Vein Realm cultivator. Making a technique is already hard enough, let alone tailor-making one for me.”
Pang Qing shook his head and caught up to Su Han’s figure.
…
Far Mountain Province, Su Clan:
The four patriarchs watched as the cleaned-up Su Minghui and others walked into the hall. Su Yunchen laughed, “Hui`er, Xuan`er, how come you’re back so soon? How was the harvest?”
Su Mingxuan and Su Minghui stayed silent. However, their lowered eyes flickered with excitement.
At this moment, there was no longer a threat. Their fear had also naturally dissipated, and excitement took its place.
Extreme excitement for Su Han’s death!
“Second Patriarch, we experienced great danger in Fiend Beast Mountain Range… There wasn’t much of a harvest,” Hu Feng said from the side.
“Great danger?”
Su Yunchen and Su Yunpeng immediately asked, “Hui`er, Xuan`er, are you two alright?”
“Father, we’re both fine.” Su Minghui and Su Mingxuan laughed.
“Where’s Hanny?”
Su Yunming noticed that Su Han wasn’t among the crowd. He had previously thought that Su Han was still busy cleaning up, but now he began to worry after hearing that they had encountered a great danger in Fiend Beast Mountain Range.
“Young Master Su Han…” Hu Feng hesitated.
“What about Su Han?” First Patriarch Su Yunlie said with a frown.
“Su Han is dead.”
Before Hu Feng could speak, Su Mingxuan raised his head and said, “Su Han was too impulsive. We were being hunted by a bunch of fiend beasts and he could have escaped with us, but he was overcome by greed for fiend crystals. We tried our best but couldn’t get him to leave. Now, he’s probably dead in Fiend Beast Mountain Range. He should have been more aware of his own strength.”
“What?”
Su Yunming suddenly got up, his eyes erupting with a shocking coldness.
Thump!
A strong aura also erupted from his body—the aura of a Dragon Spirit Realm cultivator.
The four patriarchs of the Su Clan were all Dragon Spirit Realm cultivators. In the four big clans of the whole Far Mountain Province, the strongest cultivators were Dragon Spirit Realm cultivators. The strongest of them was Xiao Clan Grand Patriarch Xiao Hengshan—a peak Dragon Spirit Realm cultivator.
