Chapter 10: Infinite Reversal
"Who am I?" An Bufan's lips curled into a faint smile as he murmured to himself.
"Didn't I just tell you, Zhu Kun?" An Bufan said slowly, his hands clasped behind his back.
"You know me?" Zhu Kun asked slowly, his eyes widening in shock.
When Zhu Kun disappeared, he was indeed known to everyone on the Dou Qi Continent. But after all these years, there probably weren't many people left who recognized him. And that group certainly shouldn't include this young man from the Hun Clan.
In Zhu Kun's eyes, this person was just a junior.
How long had Zhu Kun lived? How long had Hun Tiandi lived? Zhu Kun had been suppressed here long before Hun Tiandi was even born. How could he know about him? That shouldn't be possible.
"Of course. Who doesn't know the Dragon Emperor of the Ancient Void Dragon tribe?" An Bufan said calmly.
An Bufan's words were casual, as if stating a simple fact. But when they reached the ears of the Four Demon Saints, they were filled with immense horror.
This colossal creature was none other than the Ancient Void Dragon, the leader of the three major Magical Beast families. Moreover, this was their Emperor—the Dragon Emperor.
No wonder he possessed the strength of a nine-star Dou Saint. His identity befitted his terrifying power.
Of course, what shocked them even more was the Clan Head. How could Hun Tiandi know all of this? It was utterly unbelievable.
The Clan Head truly lived up to his title! Knowing more meant controlling more. He knew about the Tuo She Ancient God's Mansion, and he even knew about this ancient existence.
At that moment, only one thought filled their minds: Clan Head, you are truly awesome.
"At your age, you shouldn't even know of my existence," Zhu Kun said, his pupils narrowing slightly as he stared at An Bufan.
"I know a lot more than that. Like what I mentioned before," An Bufan said with a smile.
An Bufan knew that behind Zhu Kun lay the Mansion of Ancient God Tuo She. He also knew that to get everything, he had to deal with Zhu Kun first.
However, Zhu Kun's strength was comparable to his own. Defeating him by force seemed impossible. If fists couldn't solve the problem, then he would solve it with words.
Whoosh!
The colossal body of Zhu Kun gradually transformed into a robust middle-aged man, exuding a powerful and imposing aura. This was Zhu Kun, the Dragon Emperor of the Ancient Void Dragons!
"Was what you just said true?" Zhu Kun looked at An Bufan with sharp, piercing eyes.
If anyone else had trespassed into this void, Zhu Kun would have ensured they perished on the spot. So what if the opponent was a Dou Saint?
Who was he? He was the Dragon Emperor, a nine-star Dou Saint. To him, anyone below the nine-star level was an ant. Killing a Dou Saint would be as easy as slaughtering a dog.
But... this intruder happened to be a peak nine-star Dou Saint.
Not only that, he seemed to know Zhu Kun's identity, and more importantly, he knew about the current state of the Ancient Void Dragon tribe. Most critically, he claimed to know the whereabouts of Zhu Kun's daughter.
This was the key. This was Zhu Kun's greatest weakness.
"Which part are you referring to, Dragon Emperor?" An Bufan's aura remained unchanged, and his tone was level.
With his hands behind his back, he stood tall and straight, his body radiating an aura of unparalleled arrogance.
"Was any of what you just said a lie?" Zhu Kun frowned deeply.
His expression gradually turned ugly, his gaze sharp as a blade, seemingly capable of tearing apart the void. If the other party dared to deceive him, Zhu Kun would make him pay a heavy price. No one could lie to Zhu Kun.
"Everything I said just now is true." An Bufan was not afraid of Zhu Kun's demeanor at all and met his gaze calmly.
"Oh! That's good." Upon hearing this, Zhu Kun's brows relaxed, and his complexion gradually returned to normal.
Fortunately, the man did not lie to him. If he dared to deceive him, Zhu Kun would have made him suffer a great loss, even if he couldn't kill him.
Zhu Kun believed he could tell if someone was lying by looking into their eyes. The other person's eyes were clear and bright, like stars; they didn't seem like the eyes of a liar.
Just as Zhu Kun's thoughts settled, An Bufan spoke again, a faint smile playing on his lips. "Dragon Emperor, why don't you ask me again if what I just said was true?"
"Hmm?"
Zhu Kun looked at the curve of An Bufan's lips and the playful smile in his eyes. His original conclusion was instantly overturned.
His brows, which had just relaxed, furrowed again. His face, which had been recovering, froze and returned to its gloomy state. His cloudy eyes sharpened instantly.
"Was what you just said true?" he asked, staring intently.
"Hehe..."
An Bufan smiled mysteriously, offering no direct answer.
This reaction made Zhu Kun's face grow increasingly gloomy, almost dripping with malice. His aura began to rise, clearly indicating he was on the verge of exploding in rage.
If An Bufan continued to provoke him, a peak battle would undoubtedly unfold.
The Four Demon Saints trembled as they sensed the growing power emanating from Zhu Kun. They were secretly shocked; the power of a nine-star Dou Saint was truly terrifying.
An Bufan seemed completely oblivious to the rising tension, continuing to smile.
"Of course it's true. Surely the Dragon Emperor can take a joke?" An Bufan said with a smile, his tone shifting to reveal his seriousness and sincerity.
This time, upon hearing An Bufan's words, Zhu Kun did not immediately relax. The oppressive aura emanating from him did not diminish in the slightest.
He just stared at An Bufan, locking onto his eyes.
An Bufan didn't try to avoid it. He met the gaze head-on.
They looked at each other, trying to fathom the depths of the other's soul.
