Leng Xiao blushed and said to Demon God Emperor Feng Xiu, "Ahhh, Father, what are you saying?" She covered her burning face helplessly, not daring to look in Huo Yuhao's direction, and let out a few cute moans.
Huo Yuhao composed himself and said, "Senior, don't you think this is too hasty? Putting aside myself, even Miss Leng Xiao's opinion should be respected. I don't think it's right to decide Miss Leng Xiao's life so arbitrarily."
Demon God Emperor Feng Xiu's goodwill towards Huo rose to another level, his admiration overflowing. "Brother Huo is truly a young hero, far surpassing the strength of this world in both talent and character. Because of this, I am even more determined to take you as my son-in-law."
Everyone heard these words clearly. They exchanged bewildered glances, and even in disbelief, began to discuss them. What?! His Demon God Emperor actually wanted to take that human god from another world as his son-in-law, as Leng Xiao's husband?
He's not Demon Clan, he's human.
Then someone else said, "What's wrong with humans? That powerful being is a god! His strength is on par with the Demon God Emperor! How dare you say a god is human?"
Ah, that's true.
While everyone was discussing this, the Moon Demon God Agares's expression was uncertain. His mind was wandering far away. Damn it, his older brother was so quick to speak, especially when Huo Yuhao appeared, or rather, when he revealed his true form.
He already had plans to marry his daughter Yue Ye to him, because Huo Yuhao's appearance made him feel that he and Yue Ye were a good match. When Huo Yuhao expressed his views on the Demon Clan and humans, his desire for Huo Yuhao grew even stronger.
Moreover, during their fight, he seemed to be glancing at Yue Ye with a look that hinted at interest in her as well. He was even thinking that after the fight, no matter what, he should try to develop a relationship with Yue Ye.
As a result, his older brother suddenly intervened, like a Cheng Yaojin appearing out of nowhere. Was his previous plan about to be shattered?
Should I challenge my elder brother?
Agares narrowed his eyes, his gaze shifting between Feng Xiu and Huo Yuhao. But then he thought again, he was full of confidence in his daughter's charm; Yue Ye, in terms of looks, talent, and strength, was definitely no less than that girl Leng Xiao!
He was confident that his daughter would not lose.
Demon God Emperor Feng Xiu stared intently at Huo Yuhao: "Well, Huo Yuhao, as my son-in- Demon God Emperor, I now fully approve of you. It's not easy to gain my approval. Judging from Leng Xiao's expression, she probably has feelings for you too. Are you going to reject me?"
Upon hearing this, Leng Xiao stared intently at Huo Yuhao with her beautiful eyes full of anticipation.
Huo Yuhao was completely bewildered at this point, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. He had only come to spar with her and test his strength, but unexpectedly, she wanted him to be her son-in-law? " Leng Xiao is a good girl, beautiful, and of prominent status."
These words made Leng Xiao's eyes light up instantly, and her cheeks flushed. Meanwhile, Yue Ye bit her lip secretly, feeling a pang of bitterness in her heart.
Huo Yuhao continued, "However, we still lack time together, and Miss Leng Xiao may not understand me."
Leng Xiao's bright eyes immediately dimmed, and she lowered her head in disappointment.
Demon God Emperor Feng Xiu's face showed displeasure. "So you're refusing?" He was still somewhat uncomfortable, as a father.
Huo Yuhao said seriously, "No, I just want to say that I will not leave the Holy Demon Continent immediately. If Miss Leng Xiao can see my true self through our interactions and accept it, then I have no objection. The admiration of a beautiful girl brings happiness, but I hope that this happiness is not just a momentary impulse."
He looked at the Demon God Emperor: "I believe Your Majesty the Demon God Emperor wouldn't want your daughter to be entrusted to an irresponsible man. If she chooses me, I will be responsible for her happiness for the rest of her life."
The Demon God Emperor suddenly realized, as did Leng Xiao. Even Yue Ye's heart clenched again; she had just seen her best friend removed from the list of rivals, and now she was back.
Demon God Emperor Feng Xiu smiled and said, "Good, very good, you're right, Huo Yuhao. Indeed, as a father, I did have this thought too. I didn't expect you to understand my emotions so perfectly. You truly deserve to be called the God of Emotion!"
Leng Xiao's heart brightened again, because Huo Yuhao's words weren't a rejection. She was overjoyed, so overjoyed she almost cried, "Brother Huo!"
Leng Xiao murmured softly, her voice filled with undisguised joy. Her slender fingers unconsciously twisted the hem of her clothes, but she had already made up her mind.
Agares's gaze darted back and forth between Yue Ye and Huo Yuhao, thinking to himself, " Huo Yuhao is indeed a man worthy of trust. Brother, give him to me. Haven't you seen my daughter's feelings?"
Huo Yuhao continued, "Although I'm sorry, I want to tell Your Demon God Emperor in advance that you must think carefully before making this decision. Because I have a girlfriend. If you can accept—no, including Miss Leng Xiao —that I have a girlfriend and you can still entrust your daughter to me, and that Miss Leng Xiao can still fall in love with me, then I will have no objections."
Leng Xiao couldn't forget Huo Yuhao at all. So what if he had a girlfriend? Could he possibly have a dozen or so? Outstanding men attract outstanding women. She should be magnanimous; what did it matter?
She looked up at the sky, "Brother Huo, Leng Xiao likes you. I don't care if you have a girlfriend, as long as you have me in your heart, that's enough."
Leng Xiao tilted her pretty face up, letting the cold raindrops patter against her cheeks, but she couldn't hide the blush on her face. At this moment, the little Demon Clan princess displayed unprecedented courage.
Although Demon God Emperor Feng Xiu was a little displeased upon hearing this, considering his daughter's appearance and Huo Yuhao's formidable strength, he understood that a powerful figure would never lack female companionship. For now, as long as his daughter was happy, that was all that mattered.
At this moment, Agares's mind started racing, as did Yue Ye's. She thought to herself, "If that's the case, then wouldn't I also have a chance to be by your side, Yuhao? I'll find a chance to make you fall in love with me."
Demon God Emperor Feng Xiu said, "Alright, that works too. But now, I'm getting a little annoyed with you. The battle must continue, Huo Yuhao." He was clearly gritting his teeth.
"As a father, as the Demon God Emperor, our battle must now be decided. I know you didn't actually intend to kill me, but the power I unleash now will be entirely geared towards killing you."
It's quite remarkable that a father could remain rational when he heard that the person his daughter liked had someone else he liked. He understood that Leng Xiao wouldn't let Huo Yuhao die, and he also knew that if Leng Xiao could watch Huo Yuhao die, then Leng Xiao didn't truly love him.
So, this might also be a testing opportunity.
"If you want to date my daughter, you'll have to pass this test. If you were only a sixth-level being, I might not do this for you. But as a deity, you are absolutely worthy of this test."
"Your strength is on par with mine, I think that's fine, God of Emotion."
