Chapter 18: Breaking off another marriage



The little affection they had in their previous life was completely consumed by Qiu Changfeng's repeated actions. Shen Qiqi's patience with him was exhausted and her eyes turned cold.

She glanced outside the yard calmly.

Tomorrow is both her birthday and her engagement party with Qiu Changfeng. Therefore, in addition to the Shen family's own people, the Qiu family who came from afar are also living in her house.

In addition, some relatives and friends who are close to the two families also live there.

Just now, while she was stuffing the spirit stone into Qingluo's hand, she secretly instructed the maid to lead the people to this yard.

There were already some scattered people gathered outside the yard.

People who practice cultivation have good five senses. Even though the night obscured the view, Shen Qiqi still saw the man hidden in the night at a glance - Qiu Xuan, the current leader of the Langting Qiu family and Qiu Changfeng's father.

The Qiu and Chen families are old friends, and the current heads of the two families, Qiu Xuan and Shen Mingyu, are sworn brothers.

It was precisely because of this relationship between the two families that Shen Qiqi was able to get engaged to Qiu Changfeng after breaking off her engagement with Xie Beiming.

However, at the moment, Shen Qiqi was troubled by the marriage that she had spent so much effort to get.

Qiu Changfeng's official match is Shen Ning'er, and Shen Qiqi doesn't want to jump between the two of them and assist others.

Besides, the experiences of her previous life were engraved in Shen Qiqi's bone marrow and blood like a brand. She knew very well that in this life, her heart could not accommodate anyone except Xie Beiming.

In this case, her engagement with Qiu Changfeng must be cancelled.

Originally, Shen Qiqi was still worried about what excuse to come up with to refuse the engagement banquet tomorrow, but now, she doesn't have to worry about it at all, as the ready-made opportunity is right in front of her.

Qiu Changfeng is Shen Qiqi's fiancé, but he always protects Shen Ning'er. Just based on this point, Shen Qiqi can completely refuse to recognize this marriage.

Thinking of this, Shen Qiqi's face turned stern, no longer smiling. She stared at Qiu Changfeng and asked in a cold voice, "Explanation? Humph, may I ask, Young Sect Master Qiu, what explanation do you want me to give to your 'Ning'er'?"

Qiu Changfeng was in a rage at the moment, and neither noticed the people outside the yard nor the inappropriateness of the words in Shen Qiqi's words. Upon hearing this, he blurted out without thinking:

"That day on the Ten Thousand Demons Cliff, you damaged Ning'er's reputation. Shouldn't you say sorry to Ning'er? How about this, Miss Shen, at the banquet tomorrow, you just need to explain to everyone that what happened on the Ten Thousand Demons Cliff that day was a misunderstanding. Neither this young master nor Ning'er is the kind of person who will not let go even if they are right."

After Qiu Changfeng finished speaking, he raised his chin slightly and looked at Shen Qiqi with a very generous look.

Shen Qiqi almost couldn't help but slap him when she heard it.

Being unreasonable?

Humph, it's obvious that they were the ones who confused right and wrong, yet they still tried to act like they were right. It's ridiculous.

But it's better this way. The more Qiu Changfeng protects Shen Ning'er, the more reasonable it will be for him to cancel the engagement.

Seeing that Qiu Xuan's aura outside the yard began to become disordered, Shen Qiqi was afraid that he would come out to stop Qiu Changfeng from going crazy, so she hurriedly said loudly:

"Young Sect Master Qiu is indeed very magnanimous, but unfortunately, I am not Young Sect Master Qiu, and I don't have such a magnanimous heart. I am very petty and always seek revenge!"

"You!" Qiu Changfeng's rage, which had just been suppressed, flared up again. He stared at Shen Qiqi and angrily said, "Shen Qiqi, what on earth do you mean? I've already paid back the spirit stones that Ning'er owed you. What else do you want?"

"Shouldn't I be the one asking you this, Young Sect Leader Qiu! If my memory serves me correctly, I seem to be your fiancée, but you keep calling her Ning'er so affectionately that someone who doesn't know would think you, Qiu Changfeng, are her Shen Ning'er's fiancé. If that's the case, then I'll grant your wish today!"

After Shen Qiqi finished speaking, she angrily took off the bracelet on her hand.

"This is the token of love that the two families exchanged for us. I'm returning it to you now! As for my share, Young Sect Master Qiu, just throw it away. There's no need to return it!"

After saying that, he raised his hand and threw the bracelet towards Qiu Changfeng without even looking at how Qiu Changfeng reacted. After throwing the bracelet, he covered his face and ran back to the house, closing the door heavily.

Her fiancé, however, always defended another woman in front of her, and she broke off the engagement in anger. How normal!

Not only did she want to break off the engagement, she also wanted to "escape overnight"!

This will prevent the two families' adults from using their status as patriarchs to forcefully tie them together tomorrow.

Although Shen Ning'er didn't know that she had awakened the Fire Lotus bloodline, this thing was an evil creature after all. Now that this evil creature had just awakened, its aura was not very obvious, and she could barely cover it up.

But after the second layer of lotus buds bloomed, she could no longer hide it.

Besides, she still had to go to Wuji Sect. There were dozens of immortals of all sizes in Wuji Sect, and any one of them was a powerful person. Shen Qiqi was sure that as long as she stood at the foot of Wuji Sect, those powerful people would immediately notice the abnormality in her, and then draw their swords without hesitation to kill her as if she were a demon.

Not to mention sneaking into the Wuji Sect to look for the Hunyuan Grass, she couldn't even enter their mountain gate.

If she wanted to sneak into the Wuji Sect, she would first have to use the Red Spirit Thorn to conceal the aura of the Fire Lotus bloodline.

The red spirit thorn grows at the bottom of the Ten Thousand Demons Cliff. With her current level of cultivation, she is unable to get down to the bottom of the Cliff, so she can only rely on the divine bird Kunpeng from the Jinyang Jiang family.

Since you are asking for help, you naturally cannot go empty-handed.

You must bring gifts.

The young master of the Jinyang Jiang family was injured by an evil spirit a few months ago and was poisoned. The poison attacks once a day at irregular times, and each time it attacks, the pain is as severe as if thousands of needles pierced the bones.
