Chapter 817: Ancient Marriage Contract

Li Hao scanned, seeing the prosperity and magnificence here, even better than the previous General King Star by a hundred times.

Everywhere in the firmament were golden silk phoenix feathers, true dragons soaring, rolling up pieces of auspicious clouds. On the ground were palaces like golden buildings and jade pavilions, ten times more magnificent than an Emperor's palace. Even a shop by the street was like a majestic palace, with immortal treasures displayed inside emanating various divine lusters, zither sounds and sword ringing singing together, extremely prosperous.

"This is the Emperor Star?"

Li Hao's heart shook, thinking of that Su Clan, unable to help but ask the Mysterious Turtle Emperor Soul in his heart:

"Are there Immortal Emperors on this Emperor Star?"

"Yes."

The Mysterious Turtle Emperor Soul seemed to know Li Hao's worry, saying: "But Immortal Emperors are in semi-slumber all year round, and will not thoroughly wake up unless it is a major event. That Supreme you saw earlier was also just a manifestation, including my master the Dao Source Immortal Emperor, who was also just reflected here, not a true body descending, otherwise that True World heaven and earth would collapse, and you all would be unable to bear it."

"Manifestation?"

Li Hao's pupils contracted slightly. That Supreme earlier couldn't be looked at directly, majestic and looking down, a wisp of aura suppressing all the Kings present so they didn't dare to look up, and this was merely a manifestation?!

He suddenly understood in his heart why Immortal Emperors were supreme, the ultimate existence in the True World, no wonder all clans were in awe.

Leaving the teleportation array, Li Hao entered the city, inquiring about the location of the Su Clan.

Fortunately, the language of the humans here was the same as in the Southern Region, just with a difference in accent.

Hearing Li Hao's accent, they just took him for a native of a remote star on the edge of the Northern Region, with slightly strange gazes sweeping over, but waiting until they sensed Li Hao's Immortal Monarch Realm aura, their expressions turned soft, pointing the way for Li Hao.

"Su Clan, it's in that Gusu City, you have to teleport from here."

"Gusu City?"

Li Hao moved slightly in his heart. This Emperor Star was Gusu, and that city was also Gusu. Could it be that this Su Clan had an Immortal Emperor ancestor?

"It is said there is, but what the situation is now, this old man doesn't know. I have been in the Primitive True World for too long a time. In addition, this star has an Immortal Emperor in slumber, and this old man will also fall into semi-slumber. When you encounter danger, this old man will naturally manifest, and you can explore the rest yourself."

The Mysterious Turtle Emperor Soul transmitted sound.

Li Hao heard its voice gradually weaken, but didn't complain, saying a word of thanks silently in his heart, then took out immortal stones and came to a wine restaurant by the road.

This wine restaurant was golden and magnificent, like an Emperor's palace, and the immortal gods coming in and out were all glazed, covered in immortal treasure accessories, rich or noble.

Li Hao found someone in the wine restaurant and inquired about this Gusu Emperor Star.

The person in the wine restaurant sensed Li Hao's Immortal Monarch Realm aura and didn't look down on him, patiently explaining to Li Hao.

This Gusu Emperor Star was extremely vast, with many forbidden areas, and some cities and mountain ranges were forbidden to cross. Those mountain ranges were spiritual veins monopolized by great clans, forbidden for outsiders to peer into. Some cities even had special taboos, not allowing anyone to cross, as they enshrined ancient Emperor statues or King tablets, and immortal gods above them were all regarded as blasphemy!

These were all rules on Gusu Emperor Star that must be followed.

That person explained shallowly, and learning that Li Hao wanted to go to the Su Clan, told Li Hao the teleportation city.

The area of Gusu Emperor Star was larger than the Land of Myriad Heavens, and the sum of thirty-three small worlds didn't reach one-tenth of it.

Li Hao left the wine restaurant and headed to the teleportation location, thinking of the words of that sorrowful and shattering face, feeling a bit impatient in his heart.

Soon, after connecting three times and turning through three immortal cities, Li Hao arrived at Gusu City.

The city in front of him was even more magnificent. The ground seemed to be paved with golden bricks, and beautiful zither sounds floated in the sky, containing simple Great Dao charm. Living here, listening since childhood, as long as one had a bit of wisdom, one could easily hear the Dao.

One must know that cultivating to the Wen Dao Realm in the human world required extraordinary talent and a thousand years of time, but here, children who had just reached adulthood could easily hear the Dao.

The Su Clan was located in the center of Gusu City, the most prosperous and magnificent area.

The huge Emperor Mansion was located in the city, with extremely many palaces, dragons and phoenixes lying in pools, extremely noble.

In front of the mansion, guards like immortal guards patrolled, their cold eyes looking down at the crowd coming and going.

The immortal gods passing by here, under those many cold gazes, all quickened their pace, holding their breath lightly, fearing to stir up the dust in front of the mansion.

"Have you heard? The Su Clan is going to marry into the Lin Clan. That True Destiny Emperor Daughter, combined with that True Destiny Emperor Son of the Lin Clan—can't imagine how strong their offspring's bloodline will be!"

"No way, we humans in the Northern Region rely on several great clans to support us, otherwise we would have long since been reduced to pigs and dogs. Now that the demons are powerful, we can only huddle together for warmth."

"Heard that that True Destiny Emperor Daughter and that Emperor Son have been childhood sweethearts since childhood, now it can be considered a match made in heaven."

"Heard long ago that that True Destiny Emperor Daughter has beauty beyond description. I traveled ten thousand miles to come here, just to see her prosperous appearance."

"That goes without saying, I was lucky enough to see Su Miss from afar ten years ago. Ten years, every time I close my eyes, it surfaces, never to be forgotten."

On the street outside the mansion, many people gathered here, whispering, occasionally stretching their heads to look at that mansion from afar, but not daring to release their divine sense rashly.

Li Hao passed by, paying a little attention to their conversation, only to discover that these people were actually squatting here, just waiting for that Su Miss to leave the mansion to see her appearance.

He felt a bit amused, not expecting immortal gods to be so superficial, but the closer he walked to that mansion, the more oppressive he felt in his heart. This Su Clan was indeed a great clan of the Northern Region, its status, it was afraid, was even higher than the Yan-Chu Imperial Clan in the Southern Region!

The street far from the mansion was noisy, but in front of the mansion it was clean and quiet, with no one daring to approach.

Therefore, the youth's slow walk attracted many gazes, and the immortal guards patrolling in front of the mansion all cast their gazes.

Waiting until they saw the youth's simple clothes, their eyes seemed to become even sharper by three parts.

"Who is coming, what is the matter?"

An Immortal Monarch Realm cultivator descended in front of Li Hao, speaking calmly, without the biting coldness, after all, the Su Clan was a great clan, and most of the visitors were noble people, so one couldn't judge by appearance.

Li Hao thought of Ying Ying Xiaoxiao's words, Northern Region Su Clan... he took a deep breath, actually feeling a bit of difficult-to-describe nervousness in his heart.

He took out that ancient scroll from the heaven and earth space. The Mysterious Turtle Emperor Soul said that this object was bestowed by the Dao Source Immortal Emperor, and holding this scroll to the Su Clan would get what he wanted. That Immortal Emperor must be able to calculate what he needed.

He took out this ancient scroll and handed it to the Immortal Monarch guard in front of him, saying:

"Junior is General Hao Tian, specifically here to visit the Su Clan. Please present this object to the Su Clan's person in charge."

The Immortal Monarch guard raised his brows slightly, sensing the Great Dao charm emanating from that ancient scroll, and also a few traces of deeply hidden aura that made him feel wary. His heart tightened, knowing the youth in front of him was not simple, and immediately accepted the scroll, saying:

"Please follow me to the Guest Hall to wait."

Saying this, he made a gesture of invitation to Li Hao.

Li Hao followed him across the mansion in front of him. When stepping in, he felt like stepping into an immortal realm. The immortal power in the surrounding heaven and earth suddenly became ten times thicker. The immortal power on Gusu Emperor Star was already thick, like the Yan-Chu Imperial City, and the immortal power in this mansion was like an extraordinary immortal god holy land, the immortal power surging into his pores, and even without cultivating here, his cultivation could slowly improve.

Soon, following the long rainbow in the mansion, Li Hao arrived at the Guest Hall to wait.

And that Immortal Monarch guard sent the ancient scroll to a deep part of the Su Mansion, into a majestic, ancient, solemn, and magnificent palace.

In one report after another, that ancient scroll finally walked into that ancient palace and was respectfully presented to a noblewoman.

This noblewoman's attire was extremely luxurious, with pieces of immortal treasure glaze decorating the edges of her clothes. Her skin was snow-tender, her appearance had three parts purity, three parts nobility, and three parts majesty of someone who had lived above others for a long time, and it was hard for anyone to resist such a face.

Seeing that ancient scroll, the corners of the noblewoman's eyes and brows lifted slightly, sensing a trace of extremely obscure Emperor Might from it.

This made her heart feel a bit surprised, indicating that this object had been held by an Immortal Emperor.

And what kind of precious thing could be held by an Immortal Emperor?

She put down the immortal pulp and nectar by her hand, picked up the ancient scroll, and opened it slowly.

Rays of golden light erupted from the scroll. As the scroll opened, ancient characters surfaced one after another, containing a vast and ancient Great Dao intent, and the writer was definitely not an ordinary person.

When seeing the two characters on the far right, the noblewoman's furrowed brows changed color, her fingers trembling slightly, nearly unable to hold it.

Things that could make her lose her composure were extremely rare. Even if an Immortal King fell in front of her, she wouldn't even blink, but at this moment, just those two words made her lose color.

Her gaze scanned line by line, and when seeing the flying dragon and phoenix floating shadow like a seal below, circling and chirping, emitting a joyful and auspicious sound, she felt her heart fall into an ice cellar, without a trace of joy, but instead a sense of chill surging.

At this juncture, how could this be?

The noblewoman's eyes trembled slightly, her eyelashes shaking in the light and shadow. The two maids serving beside her looked at each other, all seeing the horror and shock in each other's eyes.

What exactly happened that would make the Madam lose her composure like this?

For a long time, the ancient scroll was closed. The noblewoman stared at the reporter, narrowing her eyes, saying:

"Who is the person who delivered this scroll, what do they look like, and how many are there?"

That reporter was not the Immortal Monarch guard who first received Li Hao, but as a personal guard in front of the noblewoman, he naturally wouldn't waste any more effort, and had long since inquired about all the situations, at this moment bowing respectfully as if he had seen it with his own eyes:

"According to the report from the guard at the door, there is only one person, a youth, dressed simply, soul longevity not reflected, don't know the age, came here alone, cultivation realm is Immortal Monarch Realm Level One."

"Immortal Monarch Realm Level One..."

Hearing this, the noblewoman's eyes and brows lifted slightly. A mere Immortal Monarch Realm Level One, actually daring to hold this ancient marriage contract left by the ancestor, coming here to climb the social ladder?

She was silent for a moment, then said: "Summon that person to the Jingwei Hall."

"Yes."

Li Hao, waiting in the Guest Hall, didn't wait long before seeing the Immortal Monarch guard return, his attitude toward him becoming even more respectful than before, bending over and reaching out:

"Honored guest, please. The Madam has an instruction, asking you to wait in the Jingwei Hall."

Li Hao breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that what the Mysterious Turtle Emperor Soul said was correct; that Dao Source Immortal Emperor really helped him to the end.

He thanked him silently in his heart again, stood up and bowed slightly, then followed the immortal guard away from this hall, along the mansion's long rainbow immortal path, heading to another more magnificent and luxurious palace.

Not long after, Li Hao arrived at this palace.

The maids at the door respectfully invited Li Hao in, pouring tea for Li Hao.

Li Hao sat on a luxurious armchair carved from ten-thousand-year divine wood, his gaze scanning around. The tea by his side floated with wisps of fragrance, refreshing his heart.

His thoughts were not on the tea, but on whether he could see the reincarnation body Ying Ying Xiaoxiao spoke of immediately.

It was just that, what did Ying Ying Xiaoxiao mean by saying she hadn't awakened yet?

Was it that she hadn't been born into the world yet, or was it like Ying Ying Xiaoxiao's first half of her life, without awakening Shi Miao's memory?

While Li Hao was pondering, several figures walked slowly outside the door. Walking in front was naturally that noblewoman. At this moment, her eyes were cold. When the maid beside her wanted to report, she raised her hand to stop her, her footsteps walking to the door without a sound. ===== CHAPTER 818 =====
