After leaving the Xiao Mansion, Athena quickly arrived at the Prince's Mansion. She proposed to cancel the engagement, and Qin Xuan took her to find Qin Zhentian.
Qin Zhentian quickly agreed.
It was a political marriage, so it was normal for it to break up if there was no benefit.
Of course, as the party that breached the contract, the Shenguan Empire must give benefits to the Tianlong Empire, but this is not something they can negotiate.
"Your Highness's engagement with Princess Athena has been cancelled!"
"In my opinion, it's better to cancel the engagement. Athena is the little princess of the Divine Light Empire. She definitely has no good intentions in marrying into the Tianlong Empire."
"What a shame! Athena is a top talent. If she becomes the Crown Prince's Consort, the Divine Light Empire will lose a top powerhouse in the future."
The engagement was cancelled and the Tianlong Empire officials quickly announced the news.
Athena is beautiful, and she is a super genius that appears once in a thousand years in the Divine Light Empire. The news quickly spread in Shengjing City.
"Publish the contents of the bet!"
Athena ordered.
"Your Highness, this bet involves you. Are we going to make it public like this?"
One of Athena's men said hesitantly.
“That’s right!”
Athena nodded.
They announced the news first to appear proactive. Otherwise, if such a bet popped up right after the engagement was broken off, others might mistakenly think that their Divine Light Empire could not withstand the pressure of a demigod.
The Shenguang Empire is the most powerful country, and face is very important.
In addition, Athena was also worried that Xiao Fan would do something weird.
"Your Highness, I'll arrange it right away."
Half an hour later, the envoy of the Divine Light Empire exposed the bet.
"What day is it today? First, Princess Athena broke off her engagement, and then she signed a bet with Young Master Xiao."
"If Young Master Xiao wins, he can actually get Paradise Island, a large number of treasures, and Athena will become his slave."
"The price of losing is also very high. Is it possible to reach the level of Martial King in ten years? Young Master Xiao is still an ordinary person now."
The news of the bet spread in Shengjing City at an even faster speed.
Athena had just broken off her engagement, and before everyone had finished eating up the melon, even more explosive news was revealed so quickly.
"Xiao Xiao, why did you sign such a bet with Athena?"
When Jiang Gan got the news, he hurried to the Xiao Mansion.
Xiao Fan asked in surprise, "Old Jiang, is there something wrong with the bet?"
Jiang Gan said helplessly, "Of course there is a problem, and it's a big problem. Your bet is smaller than the Divine Light Empire, but your chances of winning are also much smaller than the Divine Light Empire."
"Six imperial artifacts plus a demigod-level treasure are worth over a hundred billion Tianlong coins. Why would you take this risk?"
At this point, Jiang Gan asked doubtfully, "When did you obtain six imperial artifacts and a demigod-level treasure from the Divine Light Empire?"
Xiao Fan chuckled and said, "I got it a few days ago. Senior Wuming captured a top expert from the Divine Light Empire."
"The treasure they gave as ransom?"
Jiang Gan asked.
Xiao Fan said: "That demigod-level treasure belongs to that top-level expert."
Xiao Fan did not say whether it was a treasure given for ransom. He promised Athena that the news of the murder by the Divine Light Empire would be kept secret.
The six treasures were actually hush money.
Jiang Gan frowned and said, "Xiao Xiao, even if these treasures originally belonged to the Divine Light Empire, you can't agree to this bet."
"You're obviously at a disadvantage."
"Your chance of reaching the Martial King level within ten years is probably less than ten percent. The value of your bet is far more than one tenth."
Xiao Fan smiled slightly.
What loss did he have? He had already reached the perfect level of Martial Emperor. The moment he signed the bet, he should have made a huge profit.
As long as he wanted, he could win by revealing his cultivation level now.
But his current strength is not enough. Now that it has been exposed, he will be embarrassed if the Shenguan Empire does not fulfill the bet.
"Master Jiang, I believe I can reach the Martial King level within ten years!"
Xiao Fan said seriously.
Jiang Gan looked helpless: "It's good to have confidence, but you can't be blindly confident."
"Your Highness, Yuli and the others are very talented and have many resources, but they are only at the Xuandan level."
"Even if you have a demigod behind you, she can help you a lot before you reach the Xuandan realm, but you still have to rely on yourself to reach the Xuandan realm."
Xiao Fan was very touched. Jiang Gan was really doing this for his own good.
"Master Jiang, the six imperial swords have all successfully recognized their master. Furthermore, they have combined with the three imperial swords from before to form a new formation."
Xiao Fan said.
Jiang Gan quickly said, "Xiao Xiao, let me check you out."
"good."
Jiang Gan's spiritual consciousness entered Xiao Fan's body, and he soon discovered the nine imperial swords in Xiao Fan's body, which formed a mysterious formation.
Jiang Gan didn't know much about formations, but he could see that the current formations were much stronger than before.
"Xiao Fan, you can actually make nine imperial swords recognize their master."
Jiang Gan secretly clicked his tongue. He didn't know what to say in this situation. When did it become so easy for top treasures to recognize their owners?
Even for him, it is not easy to get another imperial weapon to recognize its master.
Imperial weapons generally have tempers. It’s okay when the first imperial weapon recognizes its master, but basically every Martial Emperor-level strongman can get one.
The second one is much more difficult.
It would be better if the first one was an offensive treasure and the second one was a defensive treasure.
All of Xiao Fan’s nine imperial weapons were offensive treasures, which Jiang Gan had never heard of.
"Master Jiang, as long as I awaken, my talent should be good, and I should be able to reach the Martial King level in a relatively short time."
Xiao Fan smiled.
Jiang Gan frowned and said, "You can make so many emperor swords recognize their master. As long as the awakening talent is really strong, but the stronger the physique, the harder it is to awaken. The hope of awakening within ten years is even slimmer."
