They looked around but did not see any sign of Su Jiuzhe. Their eyes were filled with regret and pity; even kneeling for a glimpse of the Great Emperor's demeanor was worthwhile.Su Zhenyuan raised his head. He heard what Su Jiuzhe said before leaving and couldn't help but look at Li Hao, his gaze filled with agitation and complexity.
It seems even the Ancestor recognized this boy's talent.
If Li Hao could receive guidance from the Ancestor, he would surely progress further.
People gradually got back on their feet, and Lin Daogong returned to Lin Zhexuan's side. Noticing his slightly pale complexion, he felt a sigh of relief. Just as well, if not for the Su Family Ancestor's abrupt awakening, the True Dragon of the Lin Family would have fallen, which would have been a significant blow to the Lin Family.
They were hoping Lin Zhexuan could become the second Great Emperor of the Lin Family.
After all, Lin Zhexuan's talent is definitely sufficient. If even Lin Zhexuan struggled, it would be even harder for others in the Lin Family!
"Haotian, on behalf of the Jiang family, I thank you for standing up this time!"
At this moment, Jiang Qiuyu approached Li Hao, followed by members of the Jiang family, including Jiang Huanhuan.
She solemnly gazed at Li Hao, her eyes full of admiration and joy.
Upon hearing Jiang Qiuyu's words, other family patriarchs also reacted and gathered around.
"Haotian, remember him, Liu Family. From now on, when you see Haotian, it's like seeing an Elder of our clan!"
"The disciples of the Gao Family also remember, the life of our family talent was saved by Haotian!"
Various families spoke, even those whose prodigies were not captives in this battle, came forward to express gratitude.
If it weren't for Li Hao, not only would the Human Race have been defeated with all captives unrecovered, but the impact on the border would have been enormous. The Demons might have captured this moment in time and reflected it on the border battlefield, shattering the morale of the Human Race, indirectly causing immeasurable casualties.
Moreover, without Li Hao stabilizing the people's hearts in this battle, many might have considered fleeing the Northern Domain. Although they were from small clans, they were the cornerstone of the Northern Domain Human Clan.
If the foundation crumbled, the edifices above would collapse too.
Thanks surrounded and enveloped Li Hao from all sides.
Su Muqing stood in front of Li Hao, not too far, only a few steps away, yet it seemed so far, so far.
In the Northern Domain, besides Lin Zhexuan, there was actually someone who could shine so brightly.
To make the patriarchs of the various families come forward with gratitude and appreciation, this was something even Lin Zhexuan couldn't achieve.
But suddenly, Su Muqing realized, standing amongst the crowd, the other's expression remained as calm as ever. Those eyes clear and bright, like sunlight reflecting off a lake, quietly gazing at her through the cheering crowd.
His gaze seemed never to leave her, from the moment of obscurity to standing amid radiant light.
Su Muqing stood frozen in place, and slowly, her face flushed, turning aside.
After a while, she felt that gaze still lingered, looked back, and it was indeed still there.
Her eyes flickered, this time even her body turned away.
Her heart suddenly felt indescribable, complex, conflicting, with a special feeling, but absolutely no previous dislike or annoyance.
At this moment, she turned around and happened to see a figure approaching, but stopped not far away.
Lin Zhexuan.
Their eyes met, Lin Zhexuan's face was calm, yet his eyes dark as a storm.
Seeing his gaze, Su Muqing immediately understood her childhood friend's thoughts, but she didn't know whether to deny or do something else, her eyes subconsciously dodged.
But soon, she felt she had done nothing wrong, had nothing to hide, and looked at Lin Zhexuan again.
"Earlier, did you hear what your father said?"
Lin Zhexuan's somber voice echoed in her mind.
Su Muqing hesitated for a moment, recalling what her father said earlier. Her face changed; if Li Hao won, her father would arrange for them to marry?
Her gaze turned complex, but her heart felt indescribable.
"You..."
Seeing her shift in gaze, Lin Zhexuan felt a wave of anger, his face changed, turning somewhat sullen, and he said in a deep voice:
"You agree?"
Su Muqing's heart trembled, seeing Lin Zhexuan's angry eyes, she took a deep breath and shook her head, saying, "Father was just trying to encourage him; it might not really..."
"What if it does?"
Lin Zhexuan felt enraged to the point of laughter, but didn't, merely spoke coldly.
As a Half-step Emperor, how could he not mean what he said publicly?

Su Muqing understood this too, her face changed, her mind extremely conflicted, as the Lin Zhexuan before her was someone who had grown up with her. Before today, she would have made the choice without hesitation.
But that young man... twice he stood before her with determination as if ready to face death, she felt a twinge of compassion.
"I'm a bit tired; I'll go back to rest first."
Su Muqing shook her head, turned, and left.
Lin Zhexuan's face immediately darkened, along with his heart sinking, as he clenched his fists. Before he could vent, he saw that young man amidst praise suddenly break free from the crowd, chasing after Su Muqing's departing figure.
Lin Zhexuan's face immediately changed, turning unsightly, his eyes almost spewing fire.
Lin Daogong, constantly observing Lin Zhexuan and Su Muqing, sighed inwardly seeing this scene. Since Su Zhenyuan spoke publicly earlier, matters were hard to reverse, unless Su Muqing threatened to end her life.
