Chapter 1556 Chapter 396_2
“Do you really want that child, Muqing, to marry such a boy?”
Su Qingmei couldn’t help but ask, “Even if he is extremely talented, the intention to use Muqing to leverage the Su Family’s power and cling to us, such a mentality in the path of cultivation will not go far. His Dao Heart will not be that high.”
Hearing the gentle and soft-spoken words of his wife, the cold solemnity in Su Zhenyuan’s eyes gradually dissipated. He sighed lightly and said:
“Everything is fate. The Emperor behind that young man presenting a marriage proposal at this time might have seen things we haven’t, or perhaps there are other deeper meanings. You don’t understand how far the Emperor can see, what he can glimpse…”
A deep fear flashed in his eyes, and then he shook his head, saying, “Putting these aside, the marriage proposal is real, and the young man is real, so there is no reason to refuse this matter. If I refuse, where do I put the ancestors of the Su Family? This is not just respecting the Emperor and keeping promises but also respecting our own ancestors!”
Hearing these words from Su Zhenyuan, Su Qingmei was momentarily taken aback, her heart somewhat shaken, understanding her husband’s righteousness.
She gazed softly, saying, “Husband, it was my misunderstanding earlier, but this matter will undoubtedly aggrieve Muqing, and she might resent you as her father.”
“When she shoulders the family responsibilities in the future, she will understand…”
Su Zhenyuan sighed, but thinking of the slightly resentful look in his most beloved daughter’s eyes before she left, his heart still felt a bit bitter.
Su Qingmei held his broad hand, whispering, “I will explain it well to Muqing. That child will understand your difficulties. A mere hundred years will pass quickly.”
Su Zhenyuan nodded slightly, grasping her delicate hand, his gaze also becoming tender.
…
Su Muqing’s courtyard is located in the inner courtyard of the Su Family’s deep residence, named Lake Pavilion Garden.
The garden boasts nine beautiful sceneries, seven courtyards, and three places for cultivation.
Su Muqing resides in the Immortal Courtyard, which is also the main courtyard, rich in immortal power.
Like the gardens of the other three main family members, Lake Pavilion Garden enjoys the highest specification, but due to Su Muqing’s talent and bloodline, she is deeply adored and inherited the true phoenix of the main family. The garden is also enriched with several divine medicines and Chaos Treasures, making the immortal power in the courtyard even denser than that of the gardens of Su Wanqing and the other three women.
Upon returning from the Light Emperor Hall, Su Muqing directly headed back to the Immortal Courtyard, her face dark with anger the entire way.
Seeing Li Hao following her into the courtyard, Su Muqing almost lost her temper, angrily shouted:
“This is my private residence, what are you doing here?”
“Accompanying you.”
“I don’t want your company!”
Su Muqing shouted angrily.
Li Hao looked into her eyes, as if trying to see through those eyes into the depths of her soul, to see another Primordial Spirit that had not yet awakened.
He said expressionlessly, “I won’t interfere with you, you just do what you need to do, as long as I can see you with my eyes.”
“You, you!” Su Muqing stomped her feet in anger, but quickly restrained herself, coldly stated, “Don’t think that by doing this, you can move me. It’s ridiculous!”
At this moment, the butler and servants of the Immortal Courtyard came to greet them, their eyes widening in surprise upon seeing this young man quarreling with Su Muqing. In the Su Family, was there another young generation who dared to confront this true phoenix?
“Nanny Wu, throw him out!”
Seeing her caretaker, Nanny Wu, coming over, Su Muqing immediately ordered.
Nanny Wu hurriedly agreed, exuding the aura of a Perfect Immortal Monarch Realm, about to subdue and throw Li Hao out.
Li Hao frowned, immediately said, “Your father said that I share the same rights as you. Anyone who lays a hand on me will face the same consequences as if laying a hand on you!”
Hearing Li Hao’s words, Nanny Wu paused in her steps. To be a butler in the Su Family requires an agile mind, and from the quarrel between Li Hao and Su Muqing, she could see Li Hao’s extraordinariness. Now, these words left her slightly flustered.
Su Muqing coldly said, “Your shamelessness only makes me despise you!”
“It’s not important.”
Li Hao replied.
“You!”
Su Muqing’s chest heaved with anger. Pampered from a young age, she was like a Fairy untouched by the mortal world, experiencing such grievances in a single day for the first time.
Seeing Su Muqing’s reaction, Nanny Wu immediately understood that what Li Hao said was not false, and she couldn’t help but be at a loss.
“Nanny Wu, what are you waiting for, throw him out! I’ll take responsibility if anything happens!”
Su Muqing shouted in anger.
Nanny Wu lamented in her heart, knowing that if something truly happened, these young ladies would never be punished, as it has always been the servants who suffer.
Before she could think of how to handle the situation, a rushing sound came, it was Yaoqin, who stayed by Su Qingmei’s side.
Upon seeing the scene in the courtyard, a peculiar look crossed her face, and she glanced deeply at Li Hao.
Earlier in the hall, she had knelt on the side and saw Li Hao’s soul life, slightly altering her impression of this young man.
No matter how the other party behaved, he was ultimately a Heavenly Pride Level figure.
“Miss Mu Qing, Madam has instructed me to tell you to adhere to your Dao Heart, ignore external distractions, just do what you need to do, a mere hundred years will pass quickly.”
Yaoqin glanced at Li Hao beside her, not transmitting the message quietly but instead speaking directly and respectfully.
Su Muqing’s face changed slightly, her gaze turning colder by three degrees, which meant her mother also compromised and advised her to accept her fate.
She took a deep breath, glared at Li Hao hatefully, and said, “Fine, I’ll see how you, in a hundred years, end up being driven out of the Su Family like a dog in disgrace!”
After speaking, she turned and entered the house without looking back.
Li Hao’s figure flickered, immediately following her.
“Young Master, that is Miss’s main room, you…”
Nanny Wu turned pale and quickly tried to stop him.
Li Hao didn’t look back, saying, “I know my limits.”
