After a brief silence, Li Huo sighed softly, "To be honest... when I first learned of your identity, I did have this in mind."
"But later I still felt that no matter what your identity is, you would never endanger Jiangzhou."
Li Huo stared at Su Han's face, his words earnest and serious, "It's a very simple truth. If you really had grand ambitions, you wouldn't have risked exposure to come and save us, to save Jiangzhou."
Perhaps Su Han had his own motives, but since he was willing to step forward and withstand the impending calamity, he was worthy of the title of Holy Lord of the Human Race and deserved their trust and respect.
Su Han raised an eyebrow in surprise, somewhat taken aback that Li Huo thought this way, as he had already prepared for the worst.
However, after a moment's thought, he still explained, "I am indeed Su Han. And I am indeed only sixteen years old!"
Of course, that's all Su Han can explain. As for why he possesses such strength at this age? Su Han is unlikely to say! And Li Huo and Lei Qianjue wouldn't be so tactless as to ask.
"Alright, let's leave this topic here," Su Han paused briefly, then his pupils instantly transformed into Mangekyou Sharingan as he calmly stared at Li Huo. "Having observed me from the shadows for so long, it's time you came out, wasn't it?"
After a brief silence, Lei Qianjue stared at Li Huo with some suspicion. In the blink of an eye, a terrifying soul fluctuation suddenly erupted from Li Huo's body.
It was a book. The book was quickly opened, and a faint mist rose up, condensing into a half-illusory, half-real figure.
"President Xu, how could this be!" Lei Qianjue's expression changed drastically, and then he stared at Li Huo in astonishment.
"I'm sorry!" Li Huo lowered his head, his face expressionless, but his voice carried a hint of annoyance. "We had agreed... that unless it was a life-or-death crisis, I would never waste this wisp of your true thought."
Lei Qianjue remained silent.
The Book of True Thought is a special ability possessed by experts at the Six Harmonies Realm. It allows them to condense a wisp of their divine thought into a physical form and place it on a junior they value.
Divine senses are interconnected. Even though Chairman Xu was far away in Jinling, he could still observe the scene around Li Huo with this wisp of divine sense. In fact, when Li Huo encountered mortal danger, he briefly unleashed this wisp of divine sense with power approaching that of a Saint Lord.
Of course, in doing so, this wisp of true thought will also be extinguished later, and Chairman Xu's own soul will be injured... From this, we can also see how much Chairman Xu values Li Huo.
"I came out of here on my own initiative, and if I don't fight, the loss of my true energy won't be too great," Xu Changnan said with a smile.
Then, he turned his head and stared at Su Han, saying in a low voice, "What an incredible young man... If I hadn't been able to sense that your life force was very young and your bone age corresponded to sixteen... I might have thought you were an old monster pretending to be young, just like those two guys next to me."
Li Huo's pupils suddenly contracted, and he felt a chill run down his spine. He almost doubted that he had heard correctly.
Previously, although he felt that Su Han was not his enemy, he did not believe that Su Han was really only sixteen years old... But now, this point has been confirmed by Xu Changnan.
Chairman Xu of the Jiangnan General Association would never joke about something like this.
Lei Qianjue also froze on the spot, staring at Su Han's face in disbelief... The person in front of him was truly a young Holy Lord who had never appeared in history.
How exactly did they manage to do that?
To be honest, Lei Qianjue was known as a prodigy when he was cultivating at the academy. He was already at the One Yuan Realm before entering the school, and he even reached the Three Talents Realm when he graduated!
But compared to Su Han, he was practically useless, taking up too much space... At this moment, Lei Qianjue almost doubted that he was dreaming, and his worldview was shaken.
"Do you have any objections?" Su Han stared at Xu Changnan.
"No, it just feels incredible," Xu Changnan said quietly.
Because their divine senses were connected, what was actually observing Su Han at this moment was Xu Changnan's true body, far away in Jinling. However, Xu Changnan's true body was naturally not as composed as his true thought form; his mind was trembling uncontrollably. Even the Six Harmonies Saint Lord could not maintain his composure.
Sixteen-year-old Liuhe...
This can absolutely be described as unprecedented and unparalleled.
Even if you look at the whole world and look through thousands of years of history, you can't find another existence as extraordinary as this.
However, this extraordinary being appeared abruptly before him without any prior warning...
This shock was almost no less than suddenly being told to Xu Changnan that humanity was going to perish the next day...
After all, both of these things are beyond the realm of common sense.

Chapter 36 Be careful, the evil god is watching you.
"Mr. Su, is it alright if I call you that?"
Xu Changnan spoke calmly, treating Su Han as an equal. He did not act superior because of Su Han's youth.
“Of course.” Su Han nodded and said softly, “President Xu.”
"You said before that you didn't want to join the Jiangnan General Association? Although it was a bit unexpected, I respect your choice."
Xu Changnan frowned slightly, and after a moment's thought, he asked softly, "If you want to continue your student life, where would you like to go to university?"
"I still have some influence! Whether you want to get into Yenching University or Tsinghua University, it won't be a problem."
Su Han remained silent for a long time, staring at Xu Changnan with a very strange expression. "You think... I can't even get into these two schools? I need to use connections?"
Xu Changnan fell silent.
He suddenly realized that he had asked a very stupid question. Even if Su Han maintained his current superficial One Realm, he could still attend any university in China at will.
For a young person to reach the first level of cultivation signifies extremely high potential. Not to mention the Six Harmonies Realm…
Frankly speaking, the news that Su Han had reached the Six Harmonies Realm was enough to shake the world. He set a historical record as the youngest Holy Lord, a record that will be permanently etched in history.
It's certain that there's no one like it before, and it's even... very likely that there will be no one like it in the future.
"Oh, right," Su Han suddenly remembered something and casually said, "If any powerful evil god's minions appear nearby, you can notify me so I can handle it..."
"Of course, I'm not doing this for nothing; you need to give me some compensation."
After slaying the evil god's minions and gaining the evil god's power, Su Han had tasted the sweetness of success. Now that he had made contact with the official authorities, borrowing their intelligence agency was no big deal...
