Chapter 629: Breaking the Engagement



Sitting next to Princess Su Yue was a middle-aged woman with a dignified and graceful demeanor. There were faint fine lines at the corners of her eyes, and she looked 50% similar to Princess Su Yue.

Seeing Xu Feng walking straight in, the middle-aged woman showed a look of surprise on her face and said angrily: "Who are you? How can you be so rude and barge in without permission..."

Before she could finish, Princess Su Yue looked up, a look of joy suddenly reappeared on her face, and she quickly stopped her: "Mother, this is the Holy Son of the Wanfa Sect, Xu Feng!"

Upon hearing the name of the Holy Son of the Wanfa Sect, Concubine Zhen was suddenly speechless. She turned around, looked at her daughter, and asked her with her eyes what was going on!

Princess Su Yue stood up, bowed to Xu Feng and said, "Holy Son!"

Xu Feng nodded and said, "I have been in seclusion for cultivation, and I did not receive your letter immediately. I came out today and saw the letter, and I rushed here immediately."

"Su Yue, what are you doing?" Concubine Zhen's face changed, and she quickly scolded: "You and Master Xiao are already engaged. Wait until your father and I choose an auspicious day, and then you can get married! You call the Holy Son now, can you still..."

"Mother, I want to cancel the engagement!" Princess Su Yue said suddenly.

"Break off the engagement?" Concubine Zhen exclaimed, "Do you know that the Xiao family..."

At this point, Concubine Zhen seemed to have thought of something, and quickly glanced at Xu Feng. She did not say the rest of the words, but whispered in Princess Su Yue's ear: "Are you attracted to the Holy Son of the Wanfa Sect, so you don't want to marry Master Xiao?"

"Mother, what nonsense are you talking about? There is nothing wrong between me and the Holy Son..."

Xu Feng stood there rather awkwardly. If it weren't for the Dragon Soul bracelet, Xu Feng really wouldn't want to bother with such family matters.

However, the Dragon Soul Bracelet had already been refined and handed over to the Bone Fire Dragon. It was impossible to return it to Princess Su Yue, so Xu Feng had to wait patiently.

As if she had sensed Xu Feng's impatience, Princess Su Yue said to Xu Feng, "Son, as long as you can accompany me to the Xiao family and let me break off the engagement with the Xiao family, our promise will be fulfilled!"

"Okay, how about we go there now?" Xu Feng said.

Princess Su Yue glanced at her mother, gritted her teeth, nodded and said, "Okay, let's go now!"

After Princess Su Yue and Xu Feng left, half an incense stick of time later, the Emperor of Dayan, accompanied by a white-haired old man and a dozen high-level monks, quickly came to the palace where Princess Su Yue lived.

"Where's Su Yue?"

"She has already left!" Concubine Zhen said nervously, "She, she and the Holy Son of the Wanfa Sect ran to the Xiao family to break off the engagement."

"What, the Holy Son of the Wanfa Sect?" The Emperor of Dayan's expression changed drastically: "This rebellious son, doesn't she know why we want to marry into the Xiao family!"

Xu Feng did not expect that the so-called Xiao family was so far away from the capital of Dayan. The two of them flew for more than a month and had even left the sphere of influence of the Wanfa Sect, but the Xiao family had not arrived yet.

"How far is the Xiao family?" Xu Feng finally couldn't help but ask.

"At this speed, we'll be there in three more days." Princess Su Yue replied.

Although she had left the Dayan Palace, the sadness on Princess Su Yue's face did not diminish in the slightest.

"How strong is the Xiao family?" Xu Feng asked.

"The Xiao family is quite powerful and is not inferior to the Great Yan Dynasty at all!" Su Yue explained.

After Princess Su Yue explained, Xu Feng finally understood that they were already in the sphere of influence of the Holy Blood Sect. The Holy Blood Sect, like the Wanfa Sect, was one of the nine Xuantian-level sects.

Within the sphere of influence of the Holy Blood Cult, it is not the dynasty that manages the secular world, but rather a number of large and small immortal cultivation families. The Xiao family is one of them, and one of the most powerful immortal cultivation families.

The immortal cultivation families rely on their own bloodlines as a bond to manage the secular world on the one hand, and on the other hand, they send qualified talented young men to the Holy Blood Sect and rely on the Holy Blood Sect, which is no different from the Wanfa Sect managing the secular world through the three major dynasties.

"So, the one you are marrying is the young patriarch of the Xiao family?" Xu Feng asked in surprise, "According to what you said, the identity of the young patriarch of the Xiao family is not an insult to you, right?"

According to Princess Su Yue, the area ruled by the Xiao family is larger than the entire Great Yan Kingdom. There are three cities with a population of tens of millions and more than a dozen cities with a population of one million. Both in terms of influence and strength, they far exceed the Great Yan Kingdom.

"The Xiao family's sphere of influence borders the Great Yan Kingdom. My father did this just to please the Xiao family and he doesn't care about my feelings at all!" Princess Su Yue said hatefully.

Princess Su Yue finished speaking, then turned to Xu Feng and said, "Son, it's not that Su Yue is ignorant, but Su Yue had a wonderful encounter and learned a secret method of cultivating immortals. As long as she practices step by step, she can reach the peak of the ninth level!"

"But to practice the secret method, one needs to maintain a pure Yin body, so I can't get married!"

Xu Feng glanced at Princess Su Yue and said with a smile: "You didn't tell this secret to your father or your mother, so why are you telling me? Don't forget, this is only the second time we've met!"

"This secret method of cultivating immortals can only be practiced by women!" Princess Su Yue said in a low voice.

"By the way, the ancestor of the Xiao family is a great cultivator who has comprehended the realm of art. If a fight breaks out, can you be his match?" Princess Su Yue asked in a low voice.

"Artistic conception? Do you know what artistic conception he comprehended?"

"When you use the artistic conception, a phantom of a mountain will appear behind you. It should be an artistic conception of a mountain peak!"

"Besides the ancestor of the Xiao family?" Xu Feng asked.

"Many disciples of the Xiao family have joined the Holy Blood Church, but the most famous one should be Xiao Yuesheng, he is the Holy Blood Church's Holy Son!" Princess Su Yue whispered, "The one who is marrying me is his younger brother."

Xu Feng recalled the Xuanbing Sect's discussion he had attended before. He had also met the Holy Blood Sect's Holy Son, but Xiao Yuesheng was very low-key from beginning to end, and Xu Feng did not have a deep impression of him.

Three days later, a huge city appeared in front of Xu Feng.

"Holy Son, Xiaocheng is ahead!"

"The Dayan royal family wants to marry Princess Su Yue to such a faraway place. I'm afraid it's not as simple as a marriage." Xu Feng thought to himself.

In the hall of the Xiao family's ancestral home, Xiao Hong, the head of the Xiao family, looked at Xiao Yuechong standing beside him with a look of satisfaction on his face.

"Chong'er, your marriage to Princess Su Yue, the daughter of the Great Yan Emperor, is all thanks to Sheng'er. If you have a chance, write a letter to your brother to express your gratitude!" Xiao Hong said softly.

"Father, I understand!" Xiao Yuchong bowed.

"Hahaha, although I have never seen Princess Su Yue, I have heard of her beautiful name! The princess of Dayan is not only of noble status, but also of good looks. What's more valuable is that she is also a high-level cultivator. Chief, this is a good marriage!" An elder laughed.

Just then, a disciple suddenly came in to report.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

"Report, clan leader, a woman who calls herself Princess Su Yue and a man are here to visit. This is her visiting card!" The disciple presented the visiting card.

Xiao Hong frowned slightly, took the visiting card, glanced at it, took a deep breath, and said solemnly: "Go and welcome the person in."

When Xiao Yuechong heard that Princess Suyue and a man came to visit together, he felt unhappy. Seeing that his father looked a little unhappy, he couldn't help but ask, "Father..."

Xiao Hong waved his hand to stop Xiao Yuchong from asking further, and said in a deep voice: "Let's wait and see first."

After a while, Princess Su Yue and Xu Feng were led to the hall.

Princess Su Yue saw that there were more than a dozen people sitting in the hall. She looked a little embarrassed and bowed to the person sitting on the main seat and said, "Princess Su Yue of Great Yan, I pay my respects to Chief Xiao."

Xiao Hong nodded slightly and asked, "Princess Su Yue, you are polite. I wonder why you came here alone?"

"Chief, Su Yue came here this time to ask for a marriage certificate. Su Yue does not want to get married now. Can we give up on the marriage?" Princess Su Yue said gritting her teeth.

As soon as these words were spoken, the hall suddenly became boiling, and all the elders of the Xiao family glared at Princess Su Yue.

"What a joke! It wasn't my Xiao family that rushed to form an alliance with your Dayan family. It was you, Dayan family, who took the initiative to propose it. Now you want to reject it. You are simply treating my Xiao family as a joke!"

"The engagement has been concluded, the marriage certificate has been issued, and we only need to choose an auspicious day to get married. It is ridiculous to say that you don't want to get married now!"

The elders of the Xiao family spoke out one after another, reprimanding Princess Su Yue.

Princess Su Yue gritted her teeth and stood there, allowing everyone to criticize her.

"Princess Su Yue, who is this young man next to you?" Xiao Hong suddenly asked.

Xu Feng took a step forward, bowed and said, "Wanfa Sect, the holy son of the Modao lineage, Xu Feng!"

"Wanfa Sect..."

When Xiao Hong heard the words "Wanfa Sect", his heart sank, but when he heard about the holy son of the Modao lineage, thoughts raced in his mind.

"It seems that I have never heard of the knife sharpening lineage..."

The Wanfa Sect has more than 3,600 sects. It is already very good for the Xiao family to know several major sects of the Wanfa Sect. Some of the sects with lower rankings have never been heard of at all.

"It should be a small and insignificant sect that is using the Wanfa Sect's skin to gain fame..." Xiao Hong thought to himself.

This kind of thing was not something that the smaller sects of the Wanfa Sect had not done before, so Xiao Hong immediately felt relieved.

"Princess Su Yue, is the reason you broke off the engagement because of this disciple from Wanfa Sect beside you?" Xiao Hong asked again.

Su Yue remained silent, neither saying no nor saying yes.

Xu Feng couldn't help but frown and smile bitterly in his heart. It seemed that he had been acting as a shield for Su Yue this time.

Xu Feng couldn't say that he hated Princess Su Yue's behavior, but he definitely didn't like it.

"Hahaha, good, good, good!" Xiao Hong laughed loudly, with a hint of sadness and anger in his laughter.

"A forced melon is not sweet. I know this truth!" Xiao Hong slowly stood up and said to Princess Su Yue with a serious face, "The marriage was proposed by the Emperor of Dayan. Now that Princess Su Yue wants to come back to life, I should return the marriage certificate to the Emperor of Dayan!"

"Princess Su Yue, please go in. In a few days, my Xiao family will return the marriage certificate to Dayan!" Xiao Hong snorted coldly.
