Dead, dead!
Gu Yuan, Gu Lie, and Hun Xuzi turned around and looked outside the main hall the moment Zhu Kun raised his hand.
Hun Tiandi, in the astonished gazes of the three, was crushed by a large hand that descended from the sky.
Although the peak of a Nine-Star Dou Sheng and a Dou Di are only one step apart, the gap between them is like a chasm.
In the original work, Zhu Kun's strength was definitely much stronger than Hun Tiandi's at this stage, and as a Void Ancient Dragon by nature, his physical body was unparalleled.
But even so, he was still severely injured and incapacitated by Hun Tiandi after the latter broke through to Dou Di with a single strike.
One can imagine the disparity between the two.
And while both Zhu Kun and Hun Tiandi in the original work relied on pills to break through to Dou Di...
The Ancient Emperor Creation Pill, refined anew by Qi Lin, can be said to have maximized its medicinal effects.
But what about Hun Tiandi in the original work?
He relied on nothing more than an embryonic pill of emperor grade.
The difference between the two is clear at a glance.
This is also the reason why Zhu Kun could kill Hun Tiandi with a single palm strike.
And Hun Tiandi's death also made Gu Yuan and the other two feel a sense of shared sorrow.
Especially Hun Xuzi, who had accompanied Hun Tiandi.
At this moment, he had already cursed Void Flame Swallowing a thousand times in his heart.
Void Flame Swallowing was worried about being refined by Zhu Kun, which really put him in a tough spot.
He wondered if he could luckily save his life today.
Qi Lin also witnessed Hun Tiandi's death, but there was no ripple in his heart.
After all, Hun Tiandi was just the villainous boss in the original work; it's not like Qi Lin would still treat him as a villainous boss, right?
He was somewhat unqualified.
However, no matter what, Hun Tiandi was a peak Nine-Star Dou Sheng, and it could be said that his entire body was a treasure.
Qi Lin raised his hand and with an invisible grasp, instantly pulled over Hun Tiandi's corpse and storage ring.
These remains could be used to refine weapons and magical treasures, while Hun Tiandi's essence blood could be used to refine pills.
It contained abundant energy, and if used as the main material, it could easily refine a Ninth-Grade Profound Pill or even a Ninth-Grade Golden Pill.
Speaking of which, after Hun Tiandi's death, everyone's attention returned.
Zhu Kun looked at the uneasy Gu Yuan and the two others, smiling faintly, "You don't need to worry, this Emperor is not a bloodthirsty person."
Upon hearing this, the corners of the three's mouths twitched, thinking of Hun Tiandi, who had just been slapped to death.
At this moment, several young members of the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan happened to bring over four chairs, but he looked up.
Only three people needed chairs now.
Zhu Kun smiled and said, "All of you, sit!"
Gu Yuan and the other two, hearing this, suppressed the unease in their hearts and sat down.
Zhu Kun smiled faintly, "You have come to my Ancient Dragon Island, for what purpose?"
Gu Yuan quickly organized his words and replied, "Reporting to Dragon Emperor, we have come to visit this time because we learned of the Dragon Emperor's breakthrough to Dou Di, and we are here to offer congratulations."
After speaking, he raised his hand, and a faint glow emanated from the storage ring on his hand.
The next second, a pile of treasures, like a small mountain, immediately appeared in the main hall.
There were various rare heavenly materials and earthly treasures, as well as many exotic rarities.
And in Gu Yuan's hand, he still held a white jade medicine bottle.
Gu Yuan cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty the Dragon Emperor, these are the congratulatory gifts from my Gu Clan, totaling one hundred and eight rare treasures from the continent, in addition to hundreds of precious medicinal herbs over a thousand years old, and a Ninth-Grade Profound Pill."
To visit Zhu Kun, Gu Yuan had truly gone all out.
At the time, he still felt pained, because these treasures were quite rare even in the Gu Clan, especially this Ninth-Grade Profound Pill, which was left by his ancestors, and there were only a few in the entire family.
However, now Gu Yuan felt fortunate instead.
Having given these gifts, at least there would be no danger to his life on this trip, and he could also befriend this Dragon Emperor Zhu Kun.
Although Zhu Kun might not need these treasures, his descendants certainly would.
As expected, after seeing these treasures, Zhu Kun's face showed a satisfied smile, and his gaze towards Gu Yuan also held a hint of goodwill.
This young man knows how to handle things!
Gu Yuan sensed the goodwill from Zhu Kun and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, Zhu Kun's gaze turned to Hun Xuzi on the other side.
Hun Xuzi met Zhu Kun's gaze and immediately showed a smile uglier than crying.
He did want to say that their Hun Clan also had congratulatory gifts prepared.
But these congratulatory gifts were carried by Hun Tiandi!
Now Hun Tiandi was dead, and his storage ring had fallen into Qi Lin's hands.
Thinking of this, Hun Xuzi's peripheral vision glanced at Qi Lin.
Seeing that the latter had no intention of speaking, he could only brace himself, take off his own storage ring, and cupped his hands, saying, "Your Majesty the Dragon Emperor, my congratulatory gifts are not as abundant as Clan Leader Gu Yuan's, but I am willing to offer all my possessions."
After speaking, he directly offered the storage ring in his hand.
Zhu Kun raised his hand, took Hun Xuzi's storage ring, and casually glanced at it.
Although not as rich as the gifts Gu Yuan offered, it was still a considerable amount.
There was even a Ninth-Grade Treasure Pill.
So Zhu Kun nodded in satisfaction and replied with two faint words.
"Not bad."
Upon hearing this, Hun Xuzi immediately let out a long sigh of relief.
But at this moment, Qi Lin suddenly spoke, "Uncle Zhu Kun, in my opinion, this person poses a great threat to the continent. Since you've already killed his Clan Leader, why not send him to meet his Clan Leader?"
As soon as these words came out, Hun Xuzi immediately tensed up, cold sweat pouring down his forehead, and he instantly stood up, bowing ninety degrees to Zhu Kun with a strong will to survive.
"Please, both sirs, spare my life. I am a humble Ninth-Grade Profound Pill Alchemist, slightly skilled in alchemy, and can refine pills for both sirs."
Zhu Kun's expression flickered with intention. Although the pills refined by Hun Xuzi were useless to him, they would be a great help to the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan.
Qi Lin nodded upon seeing this, saying, "That works too. Let him stay on Ancient Dragon Island. He'll be of some use, at least."
Zhu Kun nodded, then casually glanced at Hun Xuzi.
"Since that's the case, you will stay on Ancient Dragon Island from now on. If you dare to play any tricks, don't blame this Emperor for being merciless."
Hun Xuzi immediately felt as if he had received a great pardon, his heart relaxed, and he had a feeling of surviving a disaster.
Although his freedom was gone, at least he had saved his life.
Hun Xuzi sat back down in his chair, and Gu Yuan and Gu Lie exchanged glances.
Now that Hun Tiandi was dead, and Hun Xuzi was about to be trapped on Ancient Dragon Island...
This way... perhaps they could find an opportunity to act against the Hun Clan.
Now the Hun Clan only had Void Flame Swallowing, which was not to be feared.
Just as the two were deep in thought, two more people walked into the main hall from outside.
One of them, seeing Gu Yuan, spoke in confusion, "Father?"
Gu Yuan heard the familiar voice and subconsciously looked over.
Upon seeing the newcomer, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"Xun Er!"
"Why are you here?"
