Chapter 367 High Hopes
Behind Han Xu, the head of the Nine Suns Venerable was pierced by the sword energy, and the body formed by the Dragon Emperor Flame began to disintegrate, turning into golden magma and returning to the ground.
A gray soul rose from the original body. Except for a little illusion, all his expressions were clearly visible.
This was the soul left by the Nine Suns Venerable.
He looked at Han Xu with extremely vicious eyes and said, "I didn't expect that I would be defeated by you after enduring for a thousand years. Is this the will of heaven?"
The words of the Nine Suns Venerable were full of unwillingness. Without the demon pill to control the Dragon Emperor Flame, his soul had no place to live. Under the influence of the rules of the world, his soul began to slowly dissipate and turned into dots of light floating in the air.
Han Xu said to the Nine Suns Venerable, "You asked for this."
If the Nine Suns Venerable did not kill him, Han Xu might still have a little sympathy for him, but now Han Xu only ignored him.
When facing an enemy, one must be as cold and ruthless as the autumn wind sweeping away the fallen leaves, otherwise one will suffer.
No matter how much of a last resort the Nine Suns Venerable had, the moment he attacked Han Xu, he was already listed as an enemy that Han Xu had to kill.
The soul of the Nine Suns Venerable quickly dissipated, and a generation of peak powerhouses fell silently in this unknown underground space.
At this time, the shadow of the Fire Dragon King's consciousness was almost transparent. Obviously, it didn't have much time left.
The Fire Dragon King cast his eyes on the demon pill in Han Xu's hand. Han Xu immediately felt it and became alert. He thought that there was no guarantee that the Fire Dragon King would not want to take back his things.
The Fire Dragon King felt Han Xu's vigilance and said, "Young man, don't worry too much. This king only has this last ray of consciousness. Even if I take back the demon pill, it will be useless."
"Please forgive me, senior!" Han Xu turned around and bowed to the Fire Dragon King. After all, he took someone else's demon pill and had no chance to repay him, so he should pay a tribute.
"You are a very special human being." The Fire Dragon King said, "In my impression, humans would never salute us monsters."
"All things in the world are equal. I believe that humans and monsters are all living beings in the same world, and there is no distinction between high and low in life." Han Xu has his own understanding of life because he has the memory of the modern society in his previous life. He is not like other people who only want to kill monsters and take their essence when they encounter them, and tame them alive as their mounts.
The Fire Dragon King said: "I admire you for saying such words at such a young age. I originally thought that Suzaku was imprisoned by you, and I wanted to kill you with my last strength. Now it seems that you and the little Suzaku in your sea of consciousness are not the kind of relationship I imagined."
Han Xu shuddered after hearing this. He didn't expect that he had just walked around the gates of hell.
He said, "Her name is Zhu Weitong. She is my friend and a relative."
"What a relative." The Fire Dragon King said, "I hope you can always keep this original intention. This king can sense that there are not many bloodlines of our divine beasts left in this world. Take good care of her."
"Don't worry, senior. I won't let her be bullied."
"Bullying? Hahaha!" The Fire Dragon King said, "Who dares to bully the divine beast Zhuque."
Although the Fire Dragon King was only an almost transparent shadow, his eyes were full of humanity. Han Xu saw a hint of inexplicable feeling from his eyes, a kind of meaning that all men would understand tacitly.
He thought: It is indeed the dragon clan, always not serious.
After the Fire Dragon King made a joke that Zhu Weitong didn't understand, he became serious again and said, "I am leaving soon. This demon pill will be left to your little Suzaku. After she refines it, she can rebuild her body."
"In addition, you keep saying that you want to protect the little Suzaku, but your strength is too weak. If I hadn't taken action just now, your body would have been cold."
Han Xu was about to say something, but the Fire Dragon King continued, "So, I will give you this fire seed of the Dragon Emperor Flame. It can be regarded as a thank you for helping me to get revenge."
"There is also a drop of my blood in the fire seed. If you refine it together, you can have the blood of the dragon clan and your physical strength can be raised to a higher level."
As he spoke, the shadow of the Fire Dragon King was about to disappear.
"Thank you, senior. May I ask, do you have any unfulfilled wishes? As long as I can do it, I will go through fire and water to fulfill it for you." Han Xu said sincerely. The things that the Fire Dragon King gave him were rare treasures in the world. This favor was very great.
"I have been in power for hundreds of years. Now that I have avenged my great hatred, I have no regrets. If you must do something, let me see the little Suzaku."
"Weitong, can you come out?" Han Xu asked.
Soon, the Nanming Lihuo in Han Xu's body surged out and condensed into an ice-blue Suzaku figure, and then the Suzaku figure transformed into a charming woman.
"Junior Weitong has met the senior. Thank you for your help." Zhu Weitong could only appear in this form before he really had a physical body.
The shadow of the Fire Dragon King also transformed into a middle-aged man, with a kingly aura between his eyebrows.
He smiled with relief and said, "Little Suzaku, you are very beautiful. If I were still alive, I would definitely take you as my concubine. How could I let this human boy get away with it?"
Zhu Weitong and Han Xu were both choked by his words. They didn't expect that the Fire Dragon King, who was so majestic, would say such frivolous words.
Han Xu couldn't help but think that everyone said that the dragon race was lustful, and the ancients were not lying to me.
"Hahahaha, don't be embarrassed. I just felt that the atmosphere was a little sad, so I just made a joke."
"Senior is really humorous." Zhu Weitong said with a wry smile.
At this time, the Fire Dragon King's feet had begun to dissipate, and soon his legs turned into smoke.
"It seems that my time has come."
"Good go, senior." Han Xu bowed again, and Zhu Weitong also followed Han Xu's example and bowed to the Fire Dragon King.
The Fire Dragon King took one last look at the two of them and said: "You two are very good, little Suzaku. There is not much blood of the mythical beast left. You have to work hard after reshaping your body. You must add more incense to the mythical beast clan. Don't I feel burdened that the offspring you two will bear will also inherit your divine beast bloodline."
After saying that, the Fire Dragon King completely disappeared between heaven and earth.
The initially sad atmosphere was completely resolved by his last words. Han Xu and Zhu Weitong looked at each other, and Zhu Weitong said: "Don't even think about it."
If she had reshaped her body, her face would be red and hot at this time.
"I didn't think about anything." Han Xu's face had been tempered many times. Not only did he not feel embarrassed, he actually found the Fire Dragon King quite cute.
After the Fire Dragon King disappeared, a gap opened in the ground where he had been, and a small golden seed rose up from the gap, floating quietly in front of Han Xu.
