Chapter 588: Sword Pond Winner
"Um?"
Hearing the sudden whistling sound, Su Muqing's eyes turned slightly, and a hint of coldness appeared in her cold eyes. Someone actually dared to appear in the Su family in such an offensive way. She condensed her immortal power all over her body, looking at the figure that came in front of her at an extremely fast speed.
Their eyes met, one pair of eyes was slightly red and full of excitement, while the other pair of eyes was cold and his brows were slightly furrowed.
"Ying Xiaoxiao..."
Li Hao looked at the woman in front of him. Her face was too similar, or rather, exactly the same, including her blue dress. It was as if time had gone backwards and the other person had never left and had never changed.
"Who are you?"
A surprised voice was heard from the side. It was from another girl who was two years younger than Su Muqing. There was a hint of tenderness in her calm eyes, and her pretty face was full of surprise.
Her eyebrows and eyes are only 30% similar to Su Muqing's, and she is also a beautiful woman with a very beautiful face.
Li Hao came back to his senses and looked at the other party's rejecting and indifferent eyes. He immediately understood what Ying Xiaoxiao meant by "not yet awakened". It was just like the memory of Miao's soul when he first met Ying Xiaoxiao and the other party had not yet awakened.
His eyes were complicated, he suppressed his thoughts and said, "My name is Haotian, I wonder...what's your name?"
It's quite a different feeling to meet an acquaintance for the first time without ever having heard of his or her name.
When Su Muqing heard this ordinary conversation, her eyes became even colder. She glanced at the path of the other party's immortal power. He came from the small villa, so he was just an ordinary outsider.
She said coldly: "Since you are a guest, then just stay in the courtyard obediently."
After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and was about to leave.
Li Hao finally saw her, how could he let her go so easily? He asked, "Please tell me your name."
Su Muqing's face was cold. The other party came to chat with her, but pretended not to know her name, and now he was pestering her. Such a trick was considered a very low-end method among her many suitors. She said coldly:
"How bold! Someone, kick him out of the Su family!"
The girl next to him wanted to say something when she heard this, but after looking at Li Hao, she finally held back and said nothing. She just shook her head at Li Hao, seeming to reveal some regret.
Li Hao looked at the cold face, a little absent-minded, until he heard the whistling sound coming from the void, and a ninth-level guard of the Immortal King Realm appeared, he woke up and couldn't help but stare at the other party, saying:
"Please tell me your name."
"Who are you from, you dare to offend Miss Su? Get out!"
The guard glanced at Su Muqing with a hint of admiration in his eyes. When he heard Li Hao's words, anger suddenly appeared on his face, and the aura of the ninth level of the Immortal King realm burst out from his body.
He saw that Li Hao's cultivation was only at the first level of the Immortal Lord Realm, and he could suppress him with just a wave of his hand. It was a rare opportunity to show it in front of Miss Su, and perhaps leave some impression in those beautiful eyes.
Faced with this might, Li Hao did not dodge, and a burst of immortal power burst out from his body to resist. The Daoyuan Immortal Seal circulated without being revealed, but the round and unified aura of the Great Dao allowed him to withstand the pressure of the guard.
Seeing the aura Li Hao displayed, Su Muqing, the girl next to her, and the guards all showed surprise in their eyes. They didn't expect that a mere Immortal King at the first level could have such power.
"So powerful, this is at least the aura of the fourth level of the Immortal Lord Realm..."
The girl next to him showed surprise in her eyes. There was no doubt that the young man in front of her was also a human genius.
However, such a genius, who was able to overcome adversity even in the realm of Immortal King, did such a thing, which made her feel a little regretful.
Su Muqing raised her eyebrows slightly, and the coldness in her eyes faded a little. At this time, a figure chased after them. It was the steward of Haiyue Palace. He was already horrified when he saw Li Hao blocking the way of Miss Su Muqing and Miss Su Wanqing. He rushed over in a panic, grabbed Li Hao's arm, and hurriedly apologized:
"My dear ladies, he is a new guest and doesn't know the rules. Please don't mind."
Su Muqing glanced at Li Hao and saw that he was staring at her with extremely strange and complicated emotions in his eyes. She felt a ripple in her heart and had a strange feeling, but she didn't think about it and waved her hand.
"never mind."
After saying that, he said to the girl beside him: "Wanqing, let's go and see Brother Qi Yu and the others."
As he spoke, the figure suddenly flashed, and then he teleported past Li Hao and disappeared into the distance.
Su Wanqing glanced at Li Hao and followed him. In a blink of an eye, the two women disappeared.
Li Hao wanted to chase after him, but the guard suddenly blocked Li Hao with a fierce aura and said coldly:
"It's rare that Miss Su forgives you, so don't seek death."
Li Hao stopped and looked at the two disappearing figures with a complicated look in his eyes. He knew that his emotions were out of control and he shouldn't have been so impulsive.
He looked at the housekeeper beside him and asked, "Are they the young ladies of the Su family?"
"You really don't know?"
The butler couldn't help but be stunned. In Gusu Imperial Star, there were actually people who didn't know Miss Su.
The guards next to her also raised their eyebrows. Now that Miss Su had left, there was no need for the other party to put on a show in front of them.
As a man, how could he not know some pick-up techniques? However, there was a flash of contempt in his eyes. This technique was a bit low-level.
Seeing Li Hao shaking his head, the housekeeper didn't care whether he really didn't know or not, and whispered: "The one who forgave you is Miss Su Muqing, the contemporary true phoenix of our Su family. She is extremely talented. Everyone on the Gusu Imperial Star knows that she is the leader of the younger generation. Apart from the Lin family's prince, there are no more than three people who can stand shoulder to shoulder with Miss Su."
"Next to her is her half-sister, Su Wanqing, who is also one of the four little phoenixes of the Su family."
"Four Little Phoenixes?"
Li Hao thought of the noble lady and the four daughters mentioned by Mrs. Su, and his eyes moved slightly.
The whispering and talking that he had heard outside the mansion before suddenly came to his mind. His pupils shrank slightly. The woman those people were talking about was actually her?
Li Hao's expression changed, and he immediately said to the housekeeper: "I want to see Madam Su."
The housekeeper was stunned and couldn't help but say: "This..."
"Help me inform, I want to see Madam Su!"
Li Hao said seriously.
"I can only inform Miss Yaoqin for you. As for whether Madam Su is willing to see you..."
The butler smiled bitterly. If he had not been in charge of Li Hao's daily life, he would not have shown up just now. But if Li Hao got into trouble, it would definitely be blamed on him.
The guard next to him sneered, turned around and left without staying any longer.
When they returned to Haiyue Palace, the butler informed Yaoqin on Li Hao's behalf, and Li Hao waited on pins and needles.
On the other side, in the Su family’s inner courtyard, Zhurong Garden.
There is a training ground here, which is a ground-level training ground that can only be used by the children of the Su family. There is an elder at the Immortal King level sitting next to it, guiding the children of the Su family in their practice.
At this time, many figures gathered outside the martial arts arena, and it was quite lively. Inside the sealing formation inside the arena, two figures were fighting fiercely, and there were shouts and cheers from outside.
Before long, the two figures ended up in a tie, with no clear winner.
If the fight continues, we will have to use our trump cards and it will be a fight of life and death.
"Fang Xiu is really amazing, worthy of being the master. He is at the second level of the Immortal Lord Realm, and he can actually defeat Yun Shan who is at the third level."
"That's right. The master's cultivation method is different from ours. Unless you can achieve great merit, you can't refer to it."
"Now that the fight is a draw, I wonder who Brother Qi Yu will choose as his guard."
Outside the venue, everyone was talking in low voices, but their eyes were frequently looking at the young man standing next to the old man in the Immortal King realm.
The young man was tall and slender, wearing a moon-white gown. His eyes were calm but gentle, and he looked quite elegant.
"Brother Qi Yu is close to reaching the perfection of the Immortal Lord realm. If I can become his close guard, I will definitely have the opportunity to learn higher-level immortal magical powers and immortal body techniques."
Many people looked envious. Although they were all members of the Su family, their identities were different. Being able to follow the master, even as a personal attendant, was an excellent opportunity and not shameful.
After all, their aunts were also slaves in front of the mistress, and there was a difference in their status.
"Qi Yu, what do you think of the spruce?"
The old man in the Immortal King realm smiled and turned to look at the young man beside him.
The other party is the leader of the younger generation of the Su family. He is older than the four little phoenixes and his realm is naturally higher, but in terms of talent, he is inferior.
I don’t know what’s going on in this generation of the Su family, but all the talented and gifted ones are women.
Before the young man could answer, two long rainbows came flying down from the sky. The moon-blue color was like fluttering clothes, and a strange phenomenon of osmanthus flowers falling appeared around. It was a natural phenomenon caused by the girl's completion of the Great Way and its influence on the heaven and earth.
The discussions in the venue suddenly disappeared, and many eyes were focused on them. When they saw the two figures clearly, everyone was silent.
After a while, exclamations and excited discussions broke out.
"It's Miss Su Muqing, she's here!"
"And Su Wanqing, they are indeed sisters, both are so pretty."
"What are they doing here? Are they here to compete with us and test our abilities?"
Many of the Su family's children became excited. The two people in front of them were the four little ones of the Su family. Their cultivation was the best among those of the same realm and age. They were rarely seen in normal times and were considered celebrities throughout the entire Gusu Imperial Star.
"Mu Qing."
When Su Qiyu saw his two younger sisters, his eyes brightened a little.
The Immortal King Realm elder next to him had a kind smile on his face and said, "Why are you here?"
The two girls nodded and greeted the old man, and then Su Muqing said directly: "Brother Qi Yu, I am here to invite you to participate in the Sword Pool Championship in six years. Are you willing?"
"Winning the Sword Pond?"
Su Qiyu's eyes twitched slightly, a smile appeared on his face, and he said: "If I haven't stepped into the Immortal King realm by then, I am willing to go and see what other families are like, but if I am lucky enough to break through to the Immortal King realm, then I can't participate."
It would be a bit of bullying for the Immortal King to participate.
Su Muqing naturally understood this truth, and nodded, "Of course, then... do you agree?"
"Sister Su asked, how dare I disobey."
Su Qiyu smiled.
After Su Muqing heard this, the coldness on her face dissipated a lot and she nodded.
On the other side, Yaoqin came to the Haiyue Palace.
"What do you want from me?"
Seeing Li Hao, Yaoqin frowned and then said, "I just heard that you almost offended Miss Su. Is it true?"
Li Hao did not expect that the Su family was able to obtain intelligence so quickly. They were aware of any small incident immediately, and they were indeed worthy of being the one following the noble lady.
"I want to see Mrs. Su."
Li Hao said.
Yaoqin frowned and said, "Madam Su is very busy, so you can't see her whenever you want. Just wait to be summoned."
"I want to see you now."
Li Hao couldn't help but sound a little impatient when he thought of the discussions he had heard outside the mansion earlier.
Yaoqin's face darkened slightly. No one living in the small villa dared to speak to her like this, but the young man in front of her had a special identity. She thought of the lady's care, took a deep breath, held back her anger, and said in a cold voice:
"I will go and report it. Before that, you just wait here obediently."
After saying this, he turned around and disappeared without giving Li Hao a chance to speak.
In the Su family's mansion.
A burly figure appeared here silently, as if stepping out of time and space, without disturbing anyone.
But as soon as he arrived at the main hall, he saw the noble lady sitting there waiting. Her dress, which was as luxurious as colored glaze and gold thread, coupled with her stunning face, was extremely beautiful.
"Ma'am, have you been waiting here?"
The patriarch of the Su family, Su Zhenyuan's deep eyes suddenly softened and he asked softly.
Madam Su looked at her husband and felt that his restrained aura was somewhat disordered. Her face changed slightly and she stood up and said:
"How is it, did it fail?"
Su Zhenyuan showed a trace of helplessness and pain in his eyes, sighed, shook his head and said, "I was too impatient."
Madam Su looked at the few white hairs on his temples, her eyes showing some pity, and said softly: "It's okay, don't take everything on yourself, there are still the fourth and fifth sons..."
Su Zhenyuan shook his head upon hearing this and said, "My eldest brother is dead. As the second son, I am taking over the eldest brother's position. I am also the head of the clan. How can I retreat behind them?"
Seeing that he was so stubborn again, Madam Su knew that she could not change him in this regard, so she had to change the subject and said:
"You're back just in time. I need your advice on something."
Hearing his wife's words, Su Zhenyuan's eyes narrowed slightly, "What's the matter?"
Seeing her husband so solemn, Madam Su knew that he was worried about those things again, so she shook her head and said, "It's a matter of the younger generation. A younger generation came to the house with a marriage contract from our ancestors."
As she spoke, she took out the ancient scroll in her hand and handed it to her husband.
The scroll opened, and golden threads burst out like thousands of divine lights. The word "Emperor" containing the meaning of the great Dao emerged.
Su Zhenyuan quickly scanned the area, his eyes showing surprise, and said, "When I inherited the clan throne, I heard my father talk about this. My ancestor had arranged a marriage, and one day in the future, he might come to my Su family to propose marriage. I didn't expect this to really happen."
A smile appeared in his eyes, and he said, "This is a good thing. Mu Qing is also getting married. This is double happiness!"
When Madam Su heard what he said, she couldn't help but roll her eyes at her husband. Her husband was very good at planning when it came to commanding the troops to slay demons and monsters on the battlefield and intimidating other demon clans, but when it came to love affairs, he acted like a pig's hoof.
"My husband, do you really want to agree? Our four daughters have talents that are rare in this generation. Are you really willing to marry them off?"
Madam Su said unhappily.
Su Zhenyuan smiled and said, "Girls cannot be kept at home. Sooner or later, they will get married. Can they be tied to a man for life? Moreover, the marriage arranged by our ancestors is also with an emperor. Even if the one who proposes marriage is not of the emperor's bloodline, he is at least his direct disciple. Such an outstanding person can be regarded as a top destination."
