Murong Jin originally planned to come to Yinqi Pavilion for some exchanges.
He gave up the Shadow Valley trial some time ago in order to hunt down a true dragon with a group of cultivators.
He was lucky enough to obtain a pair of dragon horns at that time. Later, he heard that Yinqi Pavilion had also obtained a pair of golden dragon horns, so he wanted to see how they planned to refine the weapon.
But I never expected to see this scene.
These guys are being aggressive here, even accusing the Lingxiao Sect of making baseless accusations.
Murong Jin didn't understand Bai Ying, but he did understand that old man, Xuan Yuan Chen.
That old man has a keen eye for choosing apprentices. Bai Ying must not be the person they describe to have been chosen by him.
So when he heard Bai Ying say that she could refine dragon horns, Murong Jin took out his pair of dragon horns without hesitation.
"These aren't the horns of a golden dragon, just the horns of a pair of bone dragons. Is that alright?"
Although the bone dragon that Murong Jin hunted was also a dragon, it was far inferior to the golden dragon in both grade and strength.
Bai Ying's eyes lit up immediately: "Of course!"
At this moment, everyone looked at Murong Jin with disbelief, clearly regarding him as a fool.
After all, even if it's just a bone dragon and can't compare to a golden dragon, it's still a true dragon!
These dragon horns are extremely rare.
It's already a stroke of luck that we were able to get it.
When people obtain such treasures, they usually proceed with extreme caution. Offering a reward like Yinqi Pavilion to find the best refining solution is the best approach.
But Murong Jin so carelessly handed it over to Bai Ying, and even asked her to refine it.
Has he gone mad?
Even Lin Yuan said to Murong Jin, "Brother Murong, I respect you as a person, but you must never associate with a scoundrel like Bai Ying."
Murong Jin glanced at Lin Yuan coldly: "It's none of your business to talk about the people of our Lingxiao Sect."
Lin Yuan's face darkened instantly, and he said with a sneer, "When your pair of bone dragon horns are damaged during the refining process, you'll know how to feel sorry for them."
As he spoke, Lin Yuan glanced at Bai Ying with a sneer. He hated people like Bai Ying who wanted to steal the fruits of others' labor.
This kind of person clearly knows nothing, but insists on pretending to know everything.
If you give her the dragon horns to refine, she will surely destroy those horns!
But Murong Jin clearly didn't listen to his advice and even said to him, "You don't need to worry about that. I trust my junior sister."
Bai Ying smiled and walked to Murong Jin's side, saying, "With your words, Senior Brother, I will refine it to be even more powerful than if I had used the horn of a golden dragon."
Lin Yuan almost burst out laughing. He'd heard people brag before, but never like this. Wasn't she afraid of blowing the sky apart?!
"Shall we make a bet?"
Bai Ying looked at Lin Yuan with some curiosity.
"What are we betting on?"
"Let's bet on the magical artifact that will be forged from the dragon horn. The two artifacts will fight, and the loser will have to give it to the winner. Didn't you say you could forge it to be even more powerful than the golden dragon's horn? You're not scared, are you?"
Bai Ying wasn't afraid, but the horns of the bone dragon weren't hers. She couldn't make that decision.
Murong Jin readily agreed: "Okay, I'll take the bet with you right away."
Then he said to Lin Yuan, "Let's make a heart-demon oath so that the loser won't go back on their word."
"good!"
Lin Yuan naturally agreed.
After the two made their vows against their inner demons, Lin Yuan said to Murong Jin, "We still need to prepare some materials. Tomorrow, we'll go to the Lingxiao Sect for the competition. I want to see who wins this bet!"
—
Lin Yuan arranged to meet at Lingxiao Sect because he wanted to publicly annul his engagement with Bai Ying.
He could no longer tolerate his fiancée being someone like Bai Ying.
This is a disgrace to his family.
The next day, he went to the Lingxiao Sect with his family elders and people from the Huayang Sect.
After seeing the sect leader of Lingxiao Sect, his father went over and exchanged pleasantries with him.
Then, with a troubled expression, he said, "We're here today not just for the competition agreed upon by the younger generation. More importantly, we want Yuan'er and Bai Ying to break off their engagement. As you know, this engagement was just a joke between the Brahma Immortal Venerable and our clan leader. We didn't take it seriously. Now that Lin Yuan doesn't want to marry Bai Ying, let's break off the engagement."
The sect leader of Lingxiao Sect, Master Yuxiao, was clearly taken aback.
After hearing about yesterday's events, he clearly had some reservations about the Lin family. He never expected them to come today and propose annulment.
This Lin clan leader is truly ungrateful...
They entered into a marriage agreement with Immortal Brahma because their clan leader owed him a life. They spoke with such sincerity, promising to protect Immortal Brahma's heir. Immortal Brahma believed them, thinking that after his death, his heir, protected by the Lin clan, would surely fare well.
But they never expected that as soon as the Immortal Venerable Brahma died, they would immediately come to annul the engagement.
That's utterly shameless!
The way Master Yuxiao looked at them changed.
The Lin Clan leader's men felt a sudden tightness in their chests when they saw the Lingxiao Clan leader's expression, thinking that he was unwilling to annul the engagement.
Someone jumped out and said, "Let me tell you, we don't recognize this engagement now. You have no choice but to break it off. We will never let Yuan'er marry Bai Ying!"
The members of their clan echoed, "Anyway, the Brahma Immortal Venerable is no longer here, so none of you can force Lin Yuan!"
"That's right! Even if Bai Ying tries to pester us relentlessly, it's useless. We won't admit it!"
In order to annul the engagement, they came up with many excuses, thinking that Bai Ying must have gone mad and wanted to marry into the Lin clan.
But at that moment, Master Yuxiao actually said:
"Don't you know? The moment the Brahma Immortal Venerable proposed this marriage, Bai Ying rejected it! Bai Ying never wanted to get married."
The Lin clan leader's men were instantly stunned.
How could this be? Bai Ying actually broke off the engagement a long time ago? Her betrothal partner was from the Lin clan! Countless people would kill to marry into their family! How could she do this?
Lin Yuan shouted out, "Impossible! This can't be real!"
However, many people from other sects who came to watch the spectacle said, "It's true. We all saw Bai Ying directly reject the marriage proposal."
"That's right, he cultivated the Path of Ruthlessness and had no intention of getting married at all."
Lin Yuan could hardly believe it. He hadn't expected that Bai Ying would refuse him before he even called off the engagement!
That bastard!
This is a direct slap in his face.
He glared at Bai Ying, wishing he could make her look foolish later.
He wanted everyone to know that Bai Ying broke off the engagement because she knew her place and was not good enough for him!
