"That may not be the case, the other party is only at the Immortal Monarch Realm First Level."
In Madam Su’s mind, the face of that young man appeared, with his calm demeanor, prompting her to let out a soft snort.
Su Zhenyuan was somewhat surprised and asked, "How is the soul life?"
"This..."
Madam Su had overlooked this matter earlier, arranging for the young man to visit Jingwei Hall was precisely to measure his soul life, but the impression he left her with later made her feel there was no need for further testing.
"Even if his soul life is a thousand years, with exceptional aptitude, he doesn’t quite match up with our three children."
Madam Su spoke with a hint of dissatisfaction.
Seeing his wife’s slightly pouting playful expression, warmth welled up in Su Zhenyuan’s eyes as he drew her into his embrace.
The couple had been married for tens of thousands of years, but their relationship was still extremely deep. Although Madam Su had borne him a son and a daughter, her demeanor in front of him remained as it was when they first met. She was dignified and noble, yet retained that playfulness and simplicity, making him utterly fond of her.
"To hear you say that, does it mean you haven’t measured it? If that’s the case, why not go ahead and measure it first? After all, someone for whom the Emperor has granted a marriage proposal is no ordinary person, not to mention it concerns the promise left by our ancestors, which we descendants should naturally honor."
"Alright."
Seeing her husband say this, Madam Su could only agree.
...
When she returned to the hall, Madam Su received a message from Yaoqin and immediately summoned her for an audience.
Yaoqin entered the main hall, saw the family head Su Zhenyuan had also returned, and was taken aback, then promptly knelt to pay her respects.
Su Zhenyuan merely nodded slightly. Next to him, Madam Su let her stand up and asked, "What is it?"
Yaoqin looked cautiously at family head Su Zhenyuan, then immediately reported the matter of Li Hao in the small villa asking for an audience.
The corners of Madam Su’s eyes and brows slightly raised, and she sneered, "He’s been here less than a day and already can’t hold back, so eager?"
Su Zhenyuan detected something, asking, "Wife, is this young man the one you mentioned came to propose marriage?"
"Exactly."
Madam Su nodded and said coolly, "I feared he covets the splendor of our Su Family, so I temporarily arranged for him in the small villa. Unexpectedly, in less than a day, he couldn’t wait. Clearly, he came prepared. Also, upon reaching the Gusu Emperor Star, one would know of our Su Family’s grandeur and nobility with just a little inquiry."
Su Zhenyuan nodded in agreement; it would indeed be strange not to know the Su Family’s influence on the Gusu Emperor Star.
However, this did not leave him with a bad impression of the young man since it was a mon reaction. He said, "That’s just right, as I’ve just returned. I should meet him for such an important matter. You, go bring him over."
This mand was given to Yaoqin.
Upon hearing this, Yaoqin carefully glanced at Madam Su. Seeing her slight nod, she respectfully agreed.
Su Zhenyuan noticed the servant girl’s little gesture but wasn’t irritated. As Madam Su’s personal maid, it was normal for her allegiance to lie with Madam Su.
Before long, Yaoqin returned to the Sea moon Hall, her face cold, and brought Li Hao back.
Li Hao entered the deep courtyard of the Su Family residence, following Yaoqin into this grand and magnificent main hall.
On both sides of the main hall, there were no guards, but Li Hao could sense the presence of an Immortal King Realm aura in the shadows, locking onto him. The feeling caused the pores all over his body to involuntarily constrict.
Upon entering the hall, Li Hao saw aside from Madam Su, there was a tall, handsome middle-aged man seated beside her. His aura was restrained, exuding a sense of lethality, yet appeared gentle and elegant, like jade in attire and a god of slaughter in essence.
"Family Head, this servant has brought him."
Yaoqin kneeled beside and paid her respects.
Li Hao instantly understood the man’s identity, immediately bending over and lowering his head, cupping his hands, and said, "Greetings, Family Head."
"Kneel."
Seeing Li Hao only bow and not kneel, Yaoqin couldn’t help but whisper in anxious anger.
Li Hao ignored her words. As a disciple of the Immortal Emperor, he only revered heaven and earth.
Observing this behavior, not only did Su Zhenyuan not get angry, but a faint smile appeared in his eyes.
As someone at the Immortal Monarch Realm First Level, yet able to withstand his naturally revealed pressure, calm and posed, he was undoubtedly a disciple of the Immortal Emperor.
He understood that as a disciple of the Immortal Emperor, kneeling to anyone else would be an offense and disrespect to the Immortal Emperor.
"No matter, are you Haotian?"
Su Zhenyuan maintained a peaceful demeanor, revealing neither joy nor anger, yet exuding a naturally manding presence.
Although he didn’t emanate the cold demeanor of Madam Su, his authority was even greater, making anyone else around feel deeply frightened, trembling uncontrollably.
Li Hao sensed faint Emperor’s Might emanating from the Family Head, feeling a solemn awe, but this Emperor’s Might wasn’t as potent as that from the Supreme incarnation. Having just e from facing dual Emperors, his endurance far surpassed that of ordinary Immortal Monarch Realm individuals, and with an extraordinary Dao heart, he felt extremely calm and nodded:
"I am."
Su Zhenyuan inquired, "Was that marriage proposal given to you by your master?"
He had previously examined the marriage proposal and it wasn’t a counterfeit. Moreover, he could discern that the proposal had recently been in the possession of the Emperor, evident from the lingering Emperor’s Might.
"Not by my master."
Li Hao shook his head, his mind drifting to that Dao Origin Immortal Emperor, a plex emotion flashing in his eyes, and towards that Immortal Emperor, he felt only gratitude.
"Oh?"
Su Zhenyuan was somewhat surprised, not by his master, could the other party be of the Emperor’s lineage?
"Could it be his offspring?"
"Also no."
Li Hao shook his head and said, "I have not yet bee a disciple of that senior. He granted me this... merely to assist this junior."
"Hmm?"
Su Zhenyuan’s eyes showed surprise, neither a disciple nor a descendant of the Emperor? Nonetheless, he noted Li Hao’s phrasing of "not yet bee," implying he might have the potential to one day bee a disciple under that Emperor for cultivation?
