Chapter 1574  Chapter 401: Defeating All Equals (Part 2)

Su Qiyu glanced at the three girls, his gaze immediately falling on Li Hao beside them, showing surprise in his eyes as he said:

“Who is this?”

Su Muqing’s expression appeared somewhat displeased and said, “Just a nobody, no need to mind him.”

“Could it be that guy outside, rumored to be pursuing sister Muqing?”

One of the four Su Family disciples behind Su Qiyu, some of whom were cousins and others relatives, asked curiously.

The other three, upon hearing this, all had a look of realization and glared at Li Hao with unfriendly, slightly disdainful eyes.

Su Qiyu, who had been secluded, attempting to break into the Immortal King Realm, heard this and said in a confused manner, “Pursue Muqing?”

He was surprised and astonished. Could there still be such audacious and fearless individuals on the Gusu Emperor Star?

Moreover, the other party was actually sitting beside Su Muqing without being killed on the spot. That was even more mysterious.

Su Wanqing, worried about Li Hao’s embarrassment, quickly conveyed the situation to Su Qiyu through messaging, including the marriage proposal and their father’s orders.

Su Qiyu was stunned, momentarily in a daze. Upon hearing that Su Wanqing mentioned Li Hao was only a hundred years in soul life, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he couldn’t help but scrutinize Li Hao.

“Is it true?”

Su Qiyu asked in a messaging tone.

Su Wanqing nodded.

Su Qiyu gazed deeply at Li Hao, hearing the mocking voices behind him, immediately raised his hand, stopping their words.

He understood that there was an Emperor supporting behind the other party, and his father was indulging because of this. Otherwise, how could a mere marriage proposal lead to retreat, risking offending the Lin Family?

Nowadays, with the Demon Race eyeing covetously and great pressure at the borders, the Human Race in the Northern Domain could not afford internal turmoil!

“Just stay quiet. Since it’s sister Muqing’s matter, I trust she will handle it appropriately.”

Su Qiyu said, then led them to sit aside.

The four were a bit puzzled, not knowing why Brother Qiyu was defending this young man, but as children of a great family, how could they not have some sense? They quickly stopped speaking, silently pondering Li Hao’s background and identity.

After they sat down, it wasn’t long before other family talents came to visit, just with simple courtesies, to become acquainted.

This Sword Competition Pool was not only an opportunity for family talents to gain fame but also a chance to connect with the three major families.

All around, the talents from various families walked around, greeted the three major family’s talents, and also engaged with some friendly families, forming alliances, helping one another to stand firm within their respective families, mutually beneficial.

Amidst the increasing noise, several figures flew over.

Leading them was an old man with white hair, looking serene and amiable without emitting the slightest aura, yet his eyes had a soul-stirring effect that deterred people from looking directly at him.

“Immortal King Tan has arrived.”

Someone murmured, and the scene gradually became quiet as those walking around, visiting, and exchanging pleasantries returned to their seats swiftly.

“Young masters and misses, this year’s Immortal Osmanthus has bloomed again.”

The old man said with a smile, “Not only have fourteen Godspring Golden Osmanthus bloomed this time, but the Immortal Charm Purple Osmanthus, which blooms once every thousand years, will also bloom today. I’ve calculated the flowering period; we’re holding the Sword Competition Pool today, and with limited Immortal Osmanthus, let’s see who among you can be the best to claim the prize!”

Upon hearing his words, everyone looked at the six Immortal Charm Purple Osmanthus on the highest branch, their eyes shining with light.

“The rules, I believe everyone already knows, sparring within the same realm, if one wins five matches, they will get a chance to pluck the Flowing Frost Silver Osmanthus, and if one wins ten matches, they can get a chance to pluck the Godspring Golden Osmanthus!”

Immortal King Tan said, “If someone dominates their realm, undefeated with no challengers daring to confront again, they’ll get a chance to pluck the Immortal Charm Purple Osmanthus.”

Upon hearing this, everyone was in an uproar; to defeat all in their realm seemed exceedingly difficult.

“If there are too few competitors in the same realm, resulting in vacant victories, they may battle my Immortal Puppet up to ten victories, which also counts as a win.”

Immortal King Tan stated.

To this, everyone was aware, but the difficulty of plucking the Immortal Charm Purple Osmanthus was somewhat unimaginably hard.

“Defeating all in the same realm, it’s just too hard.”

“Didn’t expect such rules, Immortal King Tan would rather let the Immortal Charm Purple Osmanthus wither than let us have it. However, in this way, its rarity is indeed exceptional. Although it can only be preserved for ten years, it highlights its value even more!”

Everyone started discussing, their eyes gleaming with light. Only, with self-awareness, they looked towards the Su, Lin, and Jiang families. To defeat all within the same tribe likely could only be accomplished by the talents of these three families.

“So difficult.”

Su Wanqing and Su Wanxue both furrowed their brows. With this, they didn’t dare to claim absolute confidence, especially since the Lin and Jiang families were also present.

“It seems this time is a direct confrontation, then. When the time comes, Sister Su of the Su Family, please show some consideration.”

Lin Jinrou chuckled softly.

Su Wanxue said calmly, “I also greatly admire the Immortal Charm Purple Osmanthus.”

Su Wanqing slightly pursed her lips, although she did not speak, yet how could a woman not love such things?

Su Muqing, however, remained silent, her eyes harboring a calm yet confident look. As the true phoenix of the Su Family, being at Sixth Level of the Immortal Monarch Realm, she had yet to meet an opponent at this stage.

Hearing the echoing discussions on the scene, Li Hao couldn’t help but be a bit curious. Though he could discern that the Immortal Osmanthus by the waterfall was a spiritual object, he didn’t see its immensely extraordinary nature and couldn’t help but ask Su Wanqing beside him:

“Is this Immortal Osmanthus a rare grand elixir? What’s so special about it?”

Su Wanqing slightly shook her head and said, “It’s just a rare immortal flower. As for its effects… Well, it doesn’t have much effect, not the kind of grand elixir you may think.”
