C11 Qing-yun Sect
In the hall, although Wu Haiyuan did not see through Su Qingxue's strength, Wu Haiya, Patriarch of the Wu Family, saw it, and he felt shocked. He cupped his fists towards Su Haoran and said, "Congratulations Brother Su. Your daughter Qingxue's aptitude is actually so heaven-defying, reaching the Nine-star of Profound Grade at the age of fourteen. I believe it won't be long before she breaks through the Earth Grade."
"Hehe, Brother Wu, your eyes are sharp. My daughter has indeed reached the Nine-star of Profound Grade." Su Haoran laughed, his eyes filled with pride.
When these words came out, all the disciples of the Wu Family drew in a breath of cold air.
The heart of Wu Zejun, who had already calmed down, thumped, and he almost jumped up. He pulled the wound on his chest and sat down in pain. He looked at Su Qingxue, eyes filled with fear. Only now did he realize that, just now, Su Qingxue had held back. If she had used a martial skill, even if he did not die, he would at least be severely injured.
Although Wu Hui was also shocked by Su Qingxue's strength, he was thinking about the purpose of the Su Family in coming to the Wu Family. Originally, Wu Family's strength was greater than Su Family's. Once the older generation had decided a marriage, as long as the younger generation reached adulthood at the age of fifteen, they would be able to get married and have children. He had just turned fifteen. Could it be that they were here to discuss the marriage? Wu Hui faintly had a bad feeling in his heart.
"Fourteen years old and she has already reached the Nine-star of Profound Grade. With this kind of talent, in the future, Qinxue will at least be an Innate Martial Master." Wu Haiya looked at Su Qingxue, his face full of smiles. Then, he looked at Wu Hui, who was at the side, and sighed in his heart. If Hui Er's cultivation talent was still there, he would not be worse than Su Qingxue at the moment. The two of them being together was truly a perfect match. But now, Wu Hui was no longer who he used to be, and he was no longer a match for Su Qingxue anymore. It seemed that he needed to negotiate with Su Haoran. If it really didn't work, then this marriage would be annulled.
"My goal is not only to be a Martial Master, nor a Martial King, but a Martial Emperor." Hearing Wu Haiya's praise, Su Qingxue did not move at all and reached out her right hand to her left ear and gently took off her veil.
A devastatingly beautiful face appeared before the eyes of others.
Her mouth was like a cherry, her skin was white like snow, her eyebrows were slender like a painting, and her eyes were twinkling like stars. Her face was delicate, elegant and refined, as if she was otherworldly, like a fairy descending to the mortal world, as spotless as a budded lotus flower in the water.
Su Qingxue swept her gaze across the disciples of Wu Family, the arrogance in her eyes undisguised. All of the Wu Family disciples who were seen by her lowered their heads, none of them daring to look at her. When her gaze swept towards Wu Hui, her brows slightly knitted, and her expression was somewhat displeased.
Although Wu Hui was also surprised by Su Qingxue's appearance, his expression did not change much. In these seven years, his cultivation had not advanced, and his mind had become extremely firm and unswerving. He no longer had any good feelings towards this proud and arrogant girl. As for the visit of the people from Su Family, Wu Hui was even more unhappy.
He wanted to become a Martial Emperor. In the entire Tianfeng Empire, the highest cultivation level was merely the Innate Martial King. Becoming a Martial Emperor was no doubt a dream.
Su Qingxue didn't have any feelings towards this fiancé that appeared out of nowhere. If it wasn't for her grandfather's promise, why would she come over herself now? And it seemed that her fiancé had not yet broken through the Profound Grade, causing Su Qingxue to look down on him even more. What made Su Qingxue even more angry was that when she looked at Wu Hui, he actually looked at her in the eye calmly. There was no shock in his eyes, which made Su Qingxue even more indignant.
"Well…" Looking at the arrogant Su Qingxue, Wu Haiya did not know what to say. Who wouldn't want to become a Martial Emperor? But in the entire Tianfeng Empire, there were only eight Martial Kings among the hundreds of thousands of cultivators, yet there wasn't even a single Martial Emperor. It could be seen how difficult it was to reach a Martial Emperor.
"Brother Su, your daughter really does have outstanding talent. However, to become a Martial Emperor, I'm afraid…" Wu Haiya shook his head. He could also tell that Su Qingxue was extremely arrogant, and cultivators were supposed to be arrogant, but if one were overly arrogant, it would greatly affect their future cultivation. The reason why Wu Haiya said these words was to remind Su Haoran that he should not let his daughter delay his future cultivation just because of her arrogance.
"Hehe, Brother Wu, your concern is unnecessary, because my daughter might really be able to become a Martial Emperor in the future." Su Haoran faintly smiled, and his gaze landed on the red-clothed elder who stood at the side.
"Oh?" At this moment, Wu Haiya was genuinely shocked. If Su Qingxue said it, Wu Haiya might not take it too seriously. Now that Su Haoran had said this again, it raised a question in his heart.
"Brother Wu, actually, one person said that my daughter was able to become a Martial Emperor." Su Haoran meant to create a suspense.
"Who is it?"
"Martial King Zhao!" Su Haoran cupped his fists in front of his chest, and with a respectful face he shouted in the air.
"Could it be Qing Yun Sect's Sect Master, Zhao Qingyun?" Wu Haiya's face changed drastically as he stood up abruptly.
