Chapter 53

Seeing Su Han, Li Qing's face twitched, and he immediately said in a low voice, "Everyone, I'm not feeling well. I'll take my leave."

With that, he turned to leave.

Xiao Yuhui's lips curled slightly. She knew very well that Li Qing wasn't really unwell; it was just because of what had been said earlier.

As for Bai Yu and Ping Yuzi, they were still stunned, staring at the seven stars gradually disappearing from Su Han's forehead, unable to speak for a long time.

"Senior Li, don't leave yet."

Su Han called out loudly. His figure flashed, and he quickly moved behind Xiao Yuhui and the others, blocking Li Qing's path.

"You haven't fulfilled your promise yet."

Su Han's gaze was sharp, and he seemed like a sword drawn from its sheath, exuding a formidable aura.

"Kneel down and kowtow."

Hearing this, everyone finally reacted.

Li Qing's face changed, turning extremely pale.

"Su Han, what I said earlier was just a joke. You don't have to take it so seriously, right?" Li Qing said in a low voice.

"A joke? I don't think you were joking."

Su Han smiled faintly. "Kneel down and kowtow."

He repeated the same words, forcing Li Qing's rather handsome face to turn a sickly liver color.

"I am an outer sect elder of the Cold Cloud Sect. You aren't even a disciple. Making me kneel and kowtow to you doesn't fit the rules of the Cold Cloud Sect, does it?" Li Qing said.

"You are a man. You should keep your word." Su Han said calmly.

"Su Han."

Xiao Yuhui, seeing Li Qing pushed to the limit and about to lose his temper, said, "Let it go. Li Qing is an outer sect elder. You've already regained your dignity. Making him kneel in front of so many people isn't appropriate..."

"This has nothing to do with you."

Before Xiao Yuhui could finish, Su Han extended his finger and gently shook it, saying, "You don't need to worry about it."

Hearing this, Xiao Yuhui sighed softly, her face showing a helpless expression.

She knew that Su Han wouldn't listen to her.

Not just her, with Su Han's personality, he probably wouldn't listen to anyone.

"Su Han, I am Bai Yu, an inner sect elder of the Cold Cloud Sect and a good friend of Yuhui. I've heard you are Yuhui's brother-in-law and have long wanted to meet you. Now, I finally have the chance."

Bai Yu stepped forward, his smile warm. "Why don't you let this go for my sake? After all, if things really get out of hand, it won't be good for anyone, right?"

"Do you like Xiao Yuhui?" Su Han suddenly asked.

Bai Yu was taken aback, wondering how Su Han had figured it out.

Xiao Yuhui rolled her eyes, thinking, "Why bring up the one thing that's not going well?"

"Since you like Xiao Yuhui, go after her. Don't meddle in my affairs." Su Han said again.

"Many people are watching. Some of them will definitely enter the Cold Cloud Sect. If Li Qing really kneels to you, where will the Cold Cloud Sect's face be? He is an outer sect elder, how can he kneel to a disciple?" Bai Yu said.

"Since he knows he is an outer sect elder, why did he say all that nonsense earlier? If I had lost, wouldn't I have had to obediently pay them tens of millions of gold coins? You only allow me to fulfill my promise if I lose, but not if I win, making them fulfill their promise?" Su Han sneered.

Hearing the words "gold coins," Ping Yuzi's lips twitched violently. He had been in shock, but now, reminded by Su Han, he suddenly remembered he owed Su Han twenty million gold coins.

Not just the twenty million gold coins, but earlier, Ping Yuzi had said he would cover the bets for those who lost to Su Han.

Now, with Su Han's overwhelming victory, Ping Yuzi felt like he was about to spit blood.

Twenty million gold coins!

That was all his wealth. Helping others would not be enough.

"Su Han."

Ping Yuzi took a deep breath and said, "Your physique is indeed formidable. To integrate most of a seventh-stage beast's blood in just a few minutes is unprecedented. I greatly admire you. Once we enter the Cold Cloud Sect, I will inform the sect leader and others about this. Even if you don't win first place in this selection, you will still enjoy resources comparable to the first place."

"Hmm?"

Su Han raised an eyebrow and looked at Ping Yuzi, slowly speaking a few words as the latter's heart raced.

"You owe me money."

Hearing this, Ping Yuzi almost couldn't hold back a mouthful of blood.

"You're obsessed with money!" Ping Yuzi cursed inwardly.

He had said so much, trying to curry favor with Su Han, but Su Han was unmoved, only talking about money.

"And you."

Su Han turned to the others. "Don't forget, each of you owes me ten thousand gold coins. After the selection, I will collect them one by one."

"Damn, a money-grubber!"

"Hmph, it's just ten thousand gold coins. What's the rush?"

"Damn, this bastard actually won. We, thousands of people, couldn't match him!"

Those whom Su Han's gaze swept over lowered their heads, not saying anything, but they cursed Su Han a thousand times in their hearts.

Except for people like Hu Zhengyao and Yang Lin from the county town, for them, taking out ten thousand gold coins was still painful.

"What's going on? You really don't plan to fulfill your promise?" Su Han looked at Li Qing again.

"Are you really going to force me to kneel and kowtow?"

Li Qing gritted his teeth. "How about this, I'll give you three million gold coins, one million gold coins for each kowtow."

"No need. I'm not short of money." Su Han said calmly.

"If you're not short of money, forget it!"

Li Qing's eyes were almost spitting fire. "Want me to kowtow to you? In your dreams!"

"If you don't kowtow, I'll break your legs!" Su Han suddenly said.

Li Qing was taken aback, then burst into laughter.

"Ha ha ha, break my legs? Since I became an outer sect elder of the Cold Cloud Sect, I've never seen anyone as arrogant as you. I want to see how you can break my legs today!"

Everyone looked over, thinking Su Han was too arrogant. Li Qing was an outer sect elder, and Su Han dared to speak so boldly?

Moreover, Li Qing's cultivation was at the late Dragon Blood stage, nearly reaching the peak. He had been in the Cold Cloud Sect for several years and mastered several Dragon Skills, far surpassing ordinary late Dragon Blood stage cultivators from Yuan Mountain County.

As they watched, Su Han's eyes turned cold. He no longer wasted words and directly charged at Li Qing.

His personality was one of immediate retribution. Earlier, Li Qing had mocked him to the fullest, almost resorting to physical violence.

If he let him go now, the Su Han from the previous life wouldn't deserve the title of Ancient Demon Dragon Emperor!
