Follow the path of Dao from infancy

Chapter 1548: Chapter 393

"Hm?"

Upon hearing the sudden whistling sound, Su Muqing’s eyes slightly shifted, a hint of coldness appearing in her initially aloof gaze. In the Su Family, someone had the audacity to appear so rudely. Immortal power gathered around her as she watched the figure rapidly approaching with an incredible movement technique.

When their eyes met, one pair of eyes slightly reddened, filled with excitement, while the other remained cold and indifferent, with brows slightly furrowed.

"Ying Xiaoxiao..."

Li Hao looked at the woman in front of him. Her face, it was too similar, or even identical, including the cyan-blue attire. It was as if time had reversed, and she had never left or changed.

"Who are you?"

Beside her, a surprised voice sounded. It was another girl two years younger than Su Muqing, with serene eyes exuding a touch of gentleness. At this moment, astonishment was all over her pretty face.

Her features bore a three-point resemblance to Su Muqing, and she too was a beautiful maiden in the making.

Li Hao snapped back to reality, noticing her repelling and indifferent eyes. He suddenly understood what Ying Xiaoxiao meant by not yet awakened, just like when he first met Ying Xiaoxiao, she had not awakened the memories of Shi Miao’s Primordial Spirit.

His gaze complex, he restrained his thoughts and said, "I am called Haotian. May I know how to address you?"

Meeting an acquaintance for the first time, not having heard their name, indeed brought a unique feeling.

Upon hearing this ordinary attempt at conversation, Su Muqing’s eyes became even colder, her gaze scanning the path of immortal power through which he arrived. Since it was through a small remote garden, he must be an ordinary guest.

She said coldly, "Since you’re a guest, you should quietly stay in the courtyard."

After speaking, she flicked her sleeve to bypass him.

Li Hao had finally met her and couldn’t let her leave easily. He repeatedly said, "Please tell me your name."

Su Muqing’s face turned icy. The person approached to chat but pretended not to know her name. Now, he was persistently clingy. Such a tactic was one of the lowest in the multitude of her suitors. She said coldly:

"How bold. Someone, expel him from the Su Family!"

The girl beside her hesitated but ultimately did not speak after glancing at Li Hao. She only shook her head at him, as if expressing some regret.

Li Hao looked upon her ice-cold face, somewhat lost, until the hissing sound in the void descended, and a guard of the Immortal Monarch Realm Nine-layer appeared. Only then did he regain his senses and fixedly stare at him, saying:

"Please tell me your name."

"Where did this boy come from, daring to offend Miss Su? Get lost!"

The guard cast a glance at Su Muqing, a hint of admiration in his eyes. Hearing Li Hao’s words, anger spread across his face, and the aura of his Immortal Monarch Realm Nine-layer cultivation burst forth.

He detected Li Hao’s cultivation was merely at the First Level of the Immortal Monarch Realm, easy to suppress with a raise of his hand. It was a rare opportunity to showcase himself before Miss Su, possibly leaving some impression in those beautiful eyes.

Facing such momentum, Li Hao did not dodge. Immortal power surged within him to counteract, and the Tao Origin Immortal Seal circulated without being revealed. Yet, the complete and unified Tao aura allowed him to withstand the guard’s pressure.

Seeing the emanated aura from Li Hao, Su Muqing and the girl beside her, as well as the guard, all showed surprise in their eyes. They did not expect someone merely at the First Level of the Immortal Monarch Realm to possess such momentum.

"Impressive. This at least has the aura of the Fourth Level of the Immortal Monarch Realm..."

The surprise in the girl’s eyes was evident; undoubtedly, the young man in front of her was a prodigy of the Human Race.

However, such a prodigy, still possessing the ability to thrive in the Immortal Monarch Realm, engaged in such behavior, leaving her with some regret in her heart.

Su Muqing raised her eyebrows slightly, and the coldness in her eyes eased a bit. At this moment, a figure quickly approached; it was the steward of the Sea Moon Hall. Seeing Li Hao blocking both Su Muqing and Su Wanqing, he was shocked and hurriedly rushed over, grabbing Li Hao’s arm as he anxiously apologized:

"Misses, he is a new guest and doesn’t know the rules. Please don’t hold it against him."

Su Muqing glanced at Li Hao, noticing his unwavering gaze upon her, filled with an extremely strange and complex emotion. Ripples stirred within her heart, a peculiar sensation, but she did not dwell on it and waved her hand:

"Forget it."

After speaking, she said to the girl beside her, "Wanqing, let’s go see Brother Qiyu and the others."

As she spoke, her figure suddenly swayed and instantly moved past Li Hao, disappearing into the distance.

Su Wanqing looked at Li Hao, then followed suit, both women vanishing in an instant.

Li Hao wanted to pursue, but the guard’s aura suddenly turned sharp, blocking Li Hao, as he said coldly:

"Miss Su spared you; don’t seek your own doom!"

Li Hao stopped, gazing at the disappearing backs with a complex expression. He knew he had lost control of his emotions and dared not act so impulsively again.

He turned to the steward beside him and asked, "Are they the Su Family’s misses?"

"You truly don’t know?"

The steward was stunned for a moment. On the Gusu Emperor Star, was there someone who did not recognize Miss Su?

The guard beside him also raised his eyebrows. With Miss Su no longer present, there was no need for the person before them to put on an act.

Being men themselves, how could they not understand some courting tactics? But the disdain in his eyes flickered, feeling this method to be somewhat low-end.

Seeing Li Hao shake his head, the steward, regardless of whether he was truly unaware or pretending, whispered, "The one who spared you is Miss Su Muqing. She is the true phoenix of the Su Family’s generation, with peerless talent. On Gusu Emperor Star, everyone knows of her, a leader among the younger generation. Aside from the Emperor’s Son from the Lin Family, there are almost no more than three who can stand alongside Miss Su."

"Beside her is her half-sister, Su Wanqing, also one of the four little phoenixes of the Su Family."
