章 44: Chapter 44: Write a Divorce Letter! Clash of Soul Power!
"Xun'er, this."
"Write a divorce letter and all that. Have I gone too far?"
Xiao Yan hesitated in expression. He wasn't someone unreasonable. Initially, his resentment towards Nalan Yanran was not just about calling off the engagement, but more about the damage her actions would bring to the reputation of Xiao Family. Now that she has offered the Black Rank High-Level Qi Method as compensation, it's a substantial benefit. Even if it means some loss of face for the family, it is within an acceptable range.
Adding to Yun Tianming's sincere attitude, proposing to annul the engagement on equal terms, generously providing a way out for their Xiao Family, wouldn't it be beautiful for both sides to shake hands and reconcile, turning enemies into friends?
However, for some reason, Xun'er stubbornly opposed this peaceful solution. She even suggested that he write a divorce letter on the spot, which would offend both the Nalan Family and the Misty Cloud Sect!
"What's the matter? Xiao Yan brother, are you unwilling?"
"Do you happen to like the Miss of the Nalan Family?"
Xiao Xun'er squinted her eyes, emitting an extremely dangerous aura.
"Gurgle~"
Xiao Yan felt a chill down his spine and quickly shook his head to express his stance.
"No, no, no! I absolutely don't like Miss Nalan!"
"I'll write the divorce letter. I'll write it immediately!"
Xiao Yan looked at the furious Nalan Yanran opposite him and could only silently apologize in his heart.
Nalan Yanran is reasonable, and Xiao Yan is also willing to be reasonable. However, compared to reasoning, Xiao Yan cares more about Xun'er's thoughts. Because the girl in front of him, Bai Yuexuan, is the only person he trusts completely!
Under the astonished gazes of the crowd, Xiao Yan swiftly wrote on the desk, using the identity of a son of the Xiao Family, issuing a divorce certificate to the Miss of the Nalan Family!
To show his determination, Xiao Yan gritted his teeth and, without hesitation, pulled out a dagger from his pocket. He ruthlessly cut a fresh wound on the palm of his left hand and finally pressed the blood-soaked palm onto the divorce letter.
"Indeed, Brother Xiao Yan has great spirit!"
Satisfied, Xiao Xun'er took the divorce letter and casually threw it towards the Nalan Yanran, who had a face turned pale.
"Miss Nalan, your wish has been fulfilled."
A calm tone without any ripples, yet it carried a provocative meaning.
"Damn it!!"
!
Nalan Yanran was infuriated, hand pressed on the sword at her waist, intending to cut the approaching divorce letter into pieces. However, as she moved, she felt an overwhelming heaviness throughout her body, and her limbs stiffened, leaving her standing motionless. She could only watch helplessly as the humiliating divorce letter enlarged before her eyes.
"Good, such strong Soul Power fluctuations."
Ge Ye wanted to help, but with just a glance from Xiao Xun'er, he instantly became timid and dared not step forward.
Feel the shame, Nalan Yanran!
You will become the first stepping stone on Brother Xiao Yan's path of growth!
Xiao Xun'er's eyes flickered with golden flames, and her entire demeanor became exceptionally cold. She had her concerns; in the future, she wanted to be with Xiao Yan, and the Gu Clan behind her would undoubtedly set their sights on him. In this situation, if Xiao Yan carried the stigma of being rejected by his fiancée, it would surely become a blemish in the eyes of certain people in the Gu Clan.
This is also why Xiao Xun'er demanded so forcefully that Xiao Yan write the divorce letter on the spot. This seemingly unreasonable approach is the domineering style of the ancient race, letting the Gu Clan behind them know that the Xiao Clan's descendants still possess their boldness!
Additionally, Xiao Xun'er deliberately escalated the hatred from Nalan Yanran and Misty Cloud Sect. The purpose is to create a hypothetical enemy for Xiao Yan, pushing him to become stronger continuously. According to her plan, in the future, Xiao Yan defeating Nalan Yanran and stepping on Misty Cloud Sect would surely make the Gu Clan take a closer look at him.
"Stop here."
When Yun Tianming spoke these words, his tone changed from the previous humble and polite attitude. He realized that reasoning alone couldn't persuade the Gu Clan heiress before him. It was necessary to present a strength that matched hers to make her listen to reason.
Accompanying Yun Tianming's words was a surging momentum of Soul Power!
Buzz—!
The clash of Soul Power is silent and imperceptible. The divorce letter, imbued with Xiao Xun'er's Soul Power, suddenly suspended itself in mid-air, as if restrained by some mysterious force.
"Oh? Finally taking action?"
Xiao Xun'er's eyes lit up, and a rare expression of interest appeared on her face.
Born with the noble bloodline of the Gu Clan, she naturally possessed powerful Soul Power, and few peers could contend with her. In a place like the Jia Ma Empire, she was like a bug, a presence beyond the norm. Never did she expect that a young man would emerge with Soul Power that could match hers, surprising her greatly.
"Miss Xun'er, I do not wish to be your enemy."
"Why force the issue?"
Yun Tianming frowned.
"In the Dou Qi Continent, strength commands respect."
"If you want me to compromise, please let your strength speak."
Xiao Xun'er smiled lightly, and a face that had not yet shed its childishness revealed confidence and pride.
The members of the Xiao Family also showed expressions of shock. They had heard about Xun'er's unique Movement skills, being the young miss from some mysterious force. It's no wonder she held a transcendent position within the family. Xiao Zhan and the Three Elders exchanged glances, their faces turning serious. Fortunately, they had not neglected this esteemed young lady in their daily interactions.
"Xun'er, is this your true strength?"
Xiao Yan, standing beside her, was instantly dumbfounded. His expression changed rapidly, and his hands involuntarily clenched into fists. In his heart, he silently made a resolution: Xun'er is right; in the Dou Qi Continent, strength commands respect. I must have power! Otherwise, how could I stand before Xun'er?
Xiao Xun'er noticed Xiao Yan's change in mood from the corner of her eye and nodded inwardly.
Observing everything, Yun Tianming's mouth twitched. He thought, "This woman seems to have a bit of a tsundere element, holding Xiao Yan firmly in her grasp!"
"You're not coming forward? Then I'll come to you."
Xiao Xun'er showed no visible movements throughout, merely focusing her spirit on manipulating Soul Power, carrying the divorce letter as she pressed it towards Yun Tianming.
"Hmph!"
Yun Tianming snorted coldly, similarly channeling Soul Power to form a transparent wall in mid-air, blocking the advance of the divorce letter.
Indeed, he's in the later stages of the Mortal Realm! This is equivalent to the soul strength of a sixth-grade Alchemist!
A trace of unusual color flashed in Xiao Xun'er's eyes.
In this age group, being a 9-Star Dou Practitioner is not considered outstanding within the Gu Clan. However, having a Soul Realm in the later stages of the Mortal Realm is undoubtedly the mark of an exceptional genius!
"How interesting~ I didn't expect Misty Cloud Sect, since Yun Po Tian, could still produce such outstanding talents!"
A rare expression of admiration appeared on Xiao Xun'er's face. This caused Xiao Yan, who was standing aside, to twitch his mouth a few times. There was also an inexplicable sense of hostility in his eyes as he looked at Yun Tianming. Well, men understand these things!
"Yun Po Tian? The founder of Misty Cloud Sect?"
Upon hearing this name, Ge Ye couldn't help but change his expression drastically.
According to the records in the sect's documents, Yun Po Tian, the founder, was said to be a Dou Venerate powerhouse from the Central Plains. He was forced to flee to the Jia Ma Empire after offending some ancient race, establishing the Misty Cloud Sect. Due to the ancient times, there is limited information about this unfamiliar founder, and not many in Misty Cloud Sect are aware of him.
Unexpectedly, the mysterious Xiao Family girl before them knows about Yun Po Tian. Could she also be from a superpower in the Central Plains? Ge Ye quickly shook his head; he, a Dou Grandmaster, didn't dare to think about matters concerning such influential figures!
"I am Xiao Xun'er. May I have the pleasure of knowing your name?"
Xiao Xun'er's tone turned amiable, and her attitude became more friendly. This was also an acknowledgment of Yun Tianming's strength.
"I won't change my name or sit under a different surname. Remember it well, I am Li Feiyu!"
Yun Tianming's expression was solemn as he gave his answer with a righteous demeanor.
