The sudden question caused everyone to look toward Meng Hao.
The old man remained silent for a moment. He looked at Bai Qing carefully.
Not because she resembled Ye Hanbing and was her reincarnation.
Perhaps it was because fate had used her as the bridge that allowed him to reunite with Bing'er one final time.
Perhaps it was because heaven had arranged this encounter. Or perhaps it was because of Lin Feng.
Whatever the reason, Meng Hao had already made his decision.
Slowly, he stepped forward.
"This old man's name is Meng Hao, Miss Bai."
Then, to everyone's shock, he knelt.
The mighty expert who could shake nations with a single thought willingly lowered himself before a young woman.
Gasps echoed throughout the courtyard.
Even the emperor widened his eyes.
"This old man wishes to follow you in this life."
Meng Hao lowered his head respectfully.
"Although I am untalented and uncultured, I shall devote the remainder of my years to protecting you."
