The Tao Mansion is very large, and you need to walk through a long corridor to get to the study.

Along the way, the family guards patrolling everywhere saluted Tao Peng respectfully.

Lin Hao could feel that these family guards all had strong auras, and most of them were warriors who had reached the Holy Realm!

In response to this, Lin Hao couldn't help but secretly be speechless.

It's no wonder that the Tao family can rank among the top ranks of the first-class ancient martial arts families. These sacred realm guards alone are enough to show their powerful heritage.

In this way, the two of them walked in silence, one behind the other.

Soon, Lin Hao followed Tao Peng and came to the study in the inner courtyard of the atrium.

The space inside was more majestic than the study rooms Lin Hao had seen before.

What is placed above is not books, but ancient jade slips.

In this way, the search for information can be solved faster.

A spiritual consciousness radiates, and all information will flow into your mind instantly.

"No need to be formal."

Tao Peng took the main seat next to the table and motioned for Lin Hao to sit down with him.

Lin Hao was not polite and sat calmly.

"I won't say any more nonsense. When do you two plan to get married?"

Tao Peng looked at Lin Hao seriously and asked.

"As long as she wants, she can do it anytime, I can wait."

Lin Hao smiled calmly.

He knew that there was no spark of love between Tao Ling and him, so naturally they couldn't get married.

Therefore, Lin Hao said this with confidence and directly asked this question to Tao Ling.

Anyway, she asked herself to be the shield, leaving the other party to deal with the matter of wiping his own ass.

However, this behavior changed in Tao Peng's eyes.

"Okay, be responsible!"

Tao Peng sighed in admiration, admiring Lin Hao even more for being able to respect his daughter so much.

"Since ancient times, parents have made the final decision on all major marriage matters."

After pondering for a while, Tao Peng said calmly: "Ling'er's mother died early, so I have full control over the marriage."

"Our Tao clan has been passed down since ancient times and has some heritage."

"Not to mention the Fengling Sect, even the other eight palace sects have to give us a bit of trouble."

He looked at Lin Hao calmly and said solemnly: "I have told you so much, but I actually have only one purpose.

"That is, are you willing to marry into our Tao Mansion?"

Hearing this, Lin Hao's eyes darkened.

The word "marrying" undoubtedly plucked a certain string deep in his heart.

"Sorry, it's impossible."

Lin Hao shook his head and said bluntly.

Seeing Lin Hao refuse so simply, the original kindness on Tao Peng's face disappeared in an instant.

The majesty of being the leader of the Tao clan also began to show at this moment.

"Do you think, with your current status, what abilities do you have to help Ling'er live a better life?"

Tao Peng asked with a serious look on his face.

Lin Hao remained silent and did not refute.

He understood that this was a father's concern and worry for his daughter.

Moreover, with his current strength, he is indeed as small as gravel in the area of ​​the Nine Halls Sect.

The last time I was chased by Wu Lu in the Dark Palace Sect, if Senior Wei Ping had not appeared in time, it would have been a disaster.

However, although this time I was acting in a play with Tao Ling.

But a man's dignity cannot always be compromised.

"I know the Tao family has a great cause, but I'm sorry, I have my own principles."

Lin Hao's words came completely from his heart.

As the saying goes, it's not enough to talk without speculation, and Tao Peng is not in the mood to continue talking to Lin Hao.

"I still have things to deal with. Please think carefully before you come to me. Don't send me away."

At that moment, his appreciation for Lin Hao was not as strong as before, and he directly issued an eviction order.

His expression was like that of his future father-in-law, full of momentum.

When they met for the first time, he obviously planned to intimidate Lin Hao with his majestic image.

He believed that Lin Hao would definitely use this to persuade him.

However, in the face of these expelled guests, Lin Hao did not express his position at all.

"Since uncle has something to do, I won't bother you anymore and will visit you when I have time."

Lin Hao cupped his hands and clasped his fists, saluted as a junior, then turned around and left.

This dinner party is just a formality.

His real purpose is to sneak into Zhang's house to search for evidence, so he has no intention of continuing to act here.

Um?

Now leave?!

Seeing Lin Hao leaving so simply, Tao Peng was stunned.

The former's style was completely beyond his expectation.

"I don't believe that you would be unwilling to compromise for Ling'er!"

Tao Peng snorted coldly with a calm expression.

He immediately called a guard and sent someone to the Lin family of the Great Yan Dynasty to propose marriage.

As everyone knows, in the Lin family whose parents have long since died, no one is qualified to make the decision for Lin Hao!

…

At this time, Lin Hao, who had walked out of the gate of Tao Mansion, walked directly to the corner of the street.

On the way there with Tao Ling, he had already looked for a hotel.

After a brief check-in procedure, Lin Hao summoned Jing Ke in the quiet guest room.

Buzz——!

Jing Ke flapped his wings and flew directly out of the gap in the window, turning on his invisibility mode at the same time.

To ensure his own safety, although Lin Hao had the Ant-Man suit, he had no intention of going with him.

Under the cover of night, Jing Ke flew straight to the south of the city as fast as lightning.

According to the information previously provided by Tao Ling, Lin Hao quickly locked onto a huge mansion with the help of the shared vision function.

That's where the Zhang family's residence is.

Compared to the Tao family, although it is slightly inferior, the overall scale is also extremely large.

It is not easy to search for these two things, Ten Thousand Blood Ganoderma and Xuanhai Ice Soul.

Fortunately, the mansion was not surrounded by a light curtain formation, so Jing Ke dived and successfully sneaked into it.

Since he didn't know how many experts there were in the Zhang family, Lin Hao was not in a hurry to order Jing Ke to search.
Chapter completed!
