Chapter 877: Chapter 876: Elder Brother-in-law, You Must Save Me

From Liuu Tianyuan’s tone, Su Han could tell that the former still didn’t believe him.

In his previous life, it was indeed only Su Han who called Liuu Tianyuan “Elder Brother-in-law,” but quite a few people knew about this nickname. At this moment, Liuu Tianyuan likely not only didn’t believe that Su Han was who he claimed to be, he wouldn’t even believe Su Han knew him.

After all, this place was in the Dragon Martial Continent. Liuu Tianyuan’s reasons for being here were uncertain; this was just an abandoned planet. Those who knew Liuu Tianyuan were all people from the High-Grade Star Domain. How could they possibly end up in the Dragon Martial Continent?

Even if Su Han truly was someone from the High-Grade Star Domain, how could he have fallen to such a pitiful state in this forsaken land of the Dragon Martial Continent – barely escaping total annihilation, left with only a remnant soul?

“Elder Brother-in-law, cut the nonsense for now. If you hesitate any longer, you’ll really die!” Su Han said anxiously.

Liuu Tianyuan snapped out of it, glanced at the black mist charging at him again, and snorted coldly, “Just him?”

“Boom!”

As his words fell, the crimson mist that Liuu Tianyuan had turned into suddenly contracted and instantly condensed into a massive fist, which slammed ferociously into the black mist.

When the two collided, though they were just mist, a booming sound still erupted. The black mist, which had condensed into a cluster, shattered entirely under Liuu Tianyuan’s fist!

“How is this possible?!”

A voice filled with disbelief came from within the black mist. Huanglin reformed into a shadow, though its face remained indistinct, but the twisted expression unmistakably revealed his utter shock at this moment.

“Huanglin, did you truly think Liuu Tianyuan would be so easy to kill?”

Liuu Tianyuan glanced at Su Han before redirecting his gaze to Huanglin.

“Over the years, you’ve been trapped here, but haven’t I also been trapped here? If not for there being only the two of us in this place, and killing you would mean loneliness, I’d have eradicated you long ago! Do you think I’d have tolerated your impudence until now?”

Liuu Tianyuan’s eyes gleamed sharply as he disregarded what Huanglin thought and immediately swung his fist again, charging at Huanglin.

“I can sense it clearly — you’re only slightly stronger than me!”

Huanglin regained his composure and snorted, “Liuu Tianyuan, after all these years, your boastful nature hasn’t changed. Killing you is indeed difficult, but you think killing me would be easy? That’s impossible!”

“Boom! Boom! Boom!”

As Huanglin spoke, the two continued to collide. Su Han could distinctly feel the soul energy emanating from the two clusters of mist growing weaker and weaker.

As Huanglin said, Liuu Tianyuan appeared formidable, but ultimately, he was only a remnant soul from an avatar. After years of consumption, compared to his peak state, the disparity was monumental. His repeated claims that it would be simple to obliterate Huanglin were, in reality, far from feasible. If it were possible, Liuu Tianyuan would have already devoured Huanglin’s remnant soul.

It must be understood that the two had established a balance. Both understood that devouring and refining the other would allow them to break free from this place’s confinement and escape. The sky would be boundless then, and loneliness no longer an issue.

Not only did Huanglin know this; Su Han knew it, too.

Liuu Tianyuan’s arrogance masked his true strength, which was far from invincible.

Ignoring Huanglin, Liuu Tianyuan’s gaze once again settled on Su Han. “Who exactly are you?”

Su Han pondered briefly before speaking, “The day I eloped with Qingyao, no one truly understood why Liuu Family suddenly abandoned their pursuit of us.”

At this moment, Su Han looked at Liuu Tianyuan. Seeing a hint of shock on the latter’s face, Su Han continued, “Even now, no one knows the truth, right?”

Liuu Tianyuan remained silent, because Su Han was correct. Even to this day, no one knew why the Liuu Family had ceased their chase.

“Because of the ‘Nerves of God Suppression.'” After a brief pause, Su Han uttered these words.

Liuu Tianyuan froze in place. If he had a physical body at that moment, his widened eyes, open mouth, and expression of disbelief would have been evident!

“After that, you returned to the Liuu Family. On the surface, it seemed you willingly married the Snow Spirit Clan’s Holy Maiden, but in reality, it wasn’t voluntary. You simply wanted to help Qingyao, to repay her for the guilt you carried.”

Su Han continued, “We once had a night of heart-to-heart by Moon Lake, exchanged details about cultivation methods for an entire month. You once said that my aptitude was ordinary, but my determination was unwavering — that I would achieve greatness someday…”

“You…”

Su Han was about to elaborate further but was interrupted by a visibly trembling Liuu Tianyuan. “You… it really is you?”

He couldn’t believe it–he truly couldn’t.

The death of the Ancient Demon Dragon Emperor sent the Holy Domain into chaos, and the entire Milky Way Universe was embroiled in monumental battles.

Numerous mighty figures had fallen. Such devastation for all living beings. If the Ancient Demon Dragon Emperor were truly alive, his terrifying power could subdue every rebel with a mere flick of his hand.

Yet why had he not shown himself?

Because he was dead!

So many years had passed. The Sovereign of Yuan Ling rose to prominence, stabilizing the majority of the chaotic situation. Even those unwilling to accept it had no choice; Su Han was dead, and the Ancient Demon Dragon Emperor had fallen!

But now, before him stood the legend of a lifetime, the strongest Ancient Emperor once regarded as unmatched–the very brother-in-law he had always been proud of. Yet he appeared before him now?

And he was merely a remnant soul…

Liuu Tianyuan found it truly unfathomable. If the figure before him truly was Su Han, what kind of catastrophic ordeal must he have endured to be reduced to this state — merely a remnant soul!

Was there anyone in the entire Milky Way Universe who could rival Su Han?

Absolutely not!

Even the Sovereign of Yuan Ling had rebelled only after Su Han’s demise. As long as Su Han lived, the Sovereign of Yuan Ling would not dare act insolently–such was Su Han’s terror-inducing might!

“Then why are you… why are you…”

Liuu Tianyuan stared unblinkingly at Su Han, unable to voice his questions in full.

Su Han understood what Liuu Tianyuan was trying to ask and shook his head with a bitter smile. “Time is running out; I can’t explain everything in detail right now. But I can tell you this: I did indeed perish. But I’ve been reborn. I lost all my cultivation base from the previous life and had to start anew. Moreover, I’ve just endured a crisis, leaving me as nothing more than a remnant soul, so…”

“Elder Brother-in-law, you must save me.”

Su Han looked seriously at Liuu Tianyuan. Though reduced to a remnant soul, he wasn’t merely mist but had facial features, limbs, and expressions.

When Liuu Tianyuan saw Su Han’s shamelessly irreverent expression, he finally believed him.

No amount of explanation could compare to the impact of that expression–it was simply too familiar.

This was that thick-skinned, or even downright brazen fellow!

Liuu Tianyuan suddenly recalled how, with that very expression, this man had taken countless treasures from him–and he had been powerless to retaliate. After all, his dear sister had insisted on sticking with him no matter what.
