The Great Ruler: Starting from the Lower Plane

The relationship between the two of them is irreversible. Ye Feng is indeed extremely outstanding, so outstanding that even she feels somewhat ashamed of herself. Perhaps in the future, this world will be unable to restrain him.

She seemed to have no reason not to like such a man; he was exactly like the future husband she had once fantasized about.

No one is perfect. Although this person is two years younger than her, he is a womanizer and not a well-behaved person.

"Come on, I'll take you to see my father."

"Don't be too reserved in a moment. My father is actually very easy to talk to, especially towards you, whom he values ​​highly."

Su Qingxue composed herself, parted her red lips slightly, and unintentionally began to talk more.

"Thank you, Xue'er..."

Ye Feng smiled slightly, and his way of addressing Su Qingxue changed, becoming exceptionally affectionate.

Upon hearing this address, Su Qingxue's fair and delicate face flushed slightly, but she did not refute Ye Feng's words and turned to lead the way.

"Don't address someone like that in front of strangers..."

Ye Feng followed behind Su Qingxue, listening to her words that were both cool and gentle yet shy, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

"Know…"

He could sense that Su Qingxue's attitude towards him had undergone a complete change after the events at the Heavenly Sword Pavilion and the Sword Debate Platform.

While there were certainly underlying health issues that he needed to address, the attraction of his own physique, and the fact that their marriage had been arranged by an elder, the main reason for this was probably the mutual recognition they developed after several encounters.

If he were ordinary, he would naturally be unable to gain Su Qingxue's approval; if he were ugly and had a bad personality, she would not be interested in him.

The two passed through the layers of palaces on Lihuo Peak and finally arrived in front of a grand hall built entirely of crimson crystal.

Above the hall gate hangs a plaque with three ancient and vigorous characters: Li Huo Hall.

This is where Su Xuan, the peak master of Li Huo Peak, usually handles affairs and meditates.

"Greetings, Your Highness!"

The guards in front of the main hall clearly recognized Princess Su Qingxue, and after bowing respectfully, they made way for her.

"Um…"

Su Qingxue nodded slightly and led Ye Feng into the main hall.

The hall was spacious, with simple and elegant furnishings. The floor was covered with warm jade, and the air was filled with a faint sandalwood fragrance and a faint but intense sword aura.

At the head of the table, a middle-aged man dressed in a golden brocade robe, with a refined yet dignified appearance, sat upright, looking down as he flipped through a jade scroll.

He was none other than Su Xuan, the vice sect master of the Burning Heaven Sword Sect, the peak master of the Li Huo Peak, and a top expert at the peak of the Sword King Realm.

Hearing footsteps, Su Xuan wasn't too surprised. He slowly raised his head, his gaze first falling on his daughter, a loving light shining in his eyes. Then he moved to Ye Feng behind her, his gaze instantly becoming much deeper, as if he could see right through a person.

"I have met my father."

Su Qingxue stepped forward and bowed.

"Disciple Ye Feng greets Peak Master."

Ye Feng followed closely behind, immediately bowing and paying homage as a disciple, his attitude respectful.

"Um."

Su Xuan put down the jade slip, a gentle smile appearing on his face.

"No need for formalities, please rise. Qingxue, please go to the side hall and wait. I have something I'd like to discuss with Ye Feng privately."

"Father, this..."

Su Qingxue was stunned for a moment, and hesitated for a moment.

"You silly girl, do you think I'd eat him up?"

Su Xuan smiled and looked at Ye Feng with a hint of admiration.

In this Burning Heaven Sword Sect, the only person her daughter cares about so much is Ye Feng, who is standing right in front of her.

Even he, as the father, will be slightly inferior in the future.

However, Ye Feng and his daughter, just as her father said, were a match made in heaven.

It hasn't been long, and he has already broken through to the mid-stage of the Sword Soul Realm. His future achievements are bound to be limitless.

Fortunately, his father was wise and acted early, otherwise it might have really caused a scramble for Ye Feng.

Thinking back to the words his sect leader had spoken to him more than twenty days ago, Su Xuan felt incredibly pleased.

In this Sword Continent, there are very few people who can be taken seriously by these Sword Emperors, and even those who spare no effort to win them over. Ye Feng, in front of them, will be the only one in this world.

"No, I don't know what Father is hiding from Xue'er."

Su Qingxue's beautiful cheeks flushed red, but she still offered an explanation.

She was simply curious, not worried about Ye Feng. In the Burning Heaven Sword Sect, it was not her grandfather who pushed for her and Ye Feng to get together, but her father.

She remembered clearly the coercion she had been subjected to before. If it were someone else, she might have been worried, but her father would never have done anything to Ye Feng.

"It's nothing, just some casual conversation. You're a shy girl, so if you're sure you want to stay here, then it's fine..."

Su Xuan's smile remained unchanged, and he spoke meaningfully.

Upon hearing this explanation, Su Qingxue pursed her red lips, glanced at Ye Feng, and then obediently withdrew from the main hall.

For a moment, only Su Xuan and Ye Feng remained in the hall.

Su Xuan did not speak immediately, but carefully examined Ye Feng with his deep eyes, an invisible pressure spreading out.

If it were an ordinary Sword Soul Realm cultivator, they would probably have been unsettled by such a gaze and aura.

Having lived two lives and undergone multiple mental trials within the Sword Fall Space, Ye Feng's mental fortitude was unparalleled. At this moment, he simply stood calmly, meeting Su Xuan's scrutinizing gaze without flinching.

After a moment, the scrutinizing look in Su Xuan's eyes gradually faded, replaced by a deep appreciation.

"With a deep and focused aura, a solid foundation, excellent temperament, and such a special physique, how fortunate is my Su clan."

Su Xuan spoke slowly, his voice steady and powerful.

"You flatter me, Peak Master."

Ye Feng humbly cupped his hands in response.

"No need to be modest. I saw your battle with Cheng Yue on the sword-fighting stage. To crush someone in the late stage of the Sword Soul Realm with only the early stage of the Sword Soul Realm is something not everyone can do."

"Moreover, the swordsmanship you use is quite extraordinary, so it seems that not everyone can master it."

"And you don't need to worry about that."

Su Xuan changed the subject, saying, "My father told me about your special qualities and the agreement between you and him."

"And his attitude is naturally my attitude; I will fully support you, and I was instrumental in bringing about your marriage."

"But Xue is my daughter. If you mistreat her, even if you become incredibly powerful in the future, I will fight you to the death."

At the end, Su Xuan's voice turned cold, carrying a hint of warning.

"You flatter me, Peak Master. I will certainly not mistreat Qingxue."

Without the slightest hesitation, Ye Feng quickly assured him.

The person in front of him was the one who had communicated with Su Qingxue about the marriage arranged by Su Zhen. According to what Su Qingxue said at the beginning, Su Xuan's attitude must have been extremely firm.
