Such a genius marrying into the Jun family would be a loss for the Huang family, Huang Jinxuan made the decision instantly.
He quickly instructed everyone present not to release the news of Huang Mingyue's advancement, and then Huang Jinxuan swiftly announced that Huang Mingyue and Jun Ye's engagement was null and void.
The woman who married into the Jun family was replaced by Huang Xiaoli. Trading an unimportant concubine's daughter for a genius was an incredibly good deal.
?
"Smack..."
Jun Ye covered his face, unable to believe that his father had actually hit him.
"You unfilial son, how dare you do such a thing? The little girl from the Huang family is really bold. How dare an ordinary person covet the position of the young mistress of my Jun family? You are truly delusional."
The head of the Jun family was furious. Marriage should be between equals. Have you ever seen a young master marry a concubine's daughter?
If he had spiritual roots, that would be fine, but the problem is that he's just an ordinary person, and his future children are very likely to not have spiritual roots.
Then Junye will be ruined.
The Jun family head immediately brought Jun Ye to the Huang family to demand an explanation.
Huang Jinxuan was feeling smug when he said, "Brother Jun, it's not that we're breaking off the engagement, it's that your son isn't satisfied and wants to find someone else."
Jun Ye lowered his head and dared not speak. He had never thought of marrying Huang Xiaoli, but he was also unwilling to marry Huang Mingyue.
This is a good opportunity to break off the engagement.
As for Huang Xiaoli, she'll be completely at his mercy in the future.
He knelt down with a thud, begging his father to grant his request.
The head of the Jun family was furious. Was it really worth it for a beautiful woman? His son was just too inexperienced and had never seen a beautiful woman before, which was why he was so infatuated with that woman.
Anyway, the head of the Jun family just wouldn't agree. The two families argued for a whole day and night, but couldn't reach a conclusion.
Finally, the Huang family was willing to compromise, allowing Huang Xiaoli to become their wife, and Jun Ye could marry another woman, plus a Spirit Ascension Pill as compensation. Only then did the Jun family head reluctantly agree.
The two families set a wedding date right then and there, and the couple got married three months later.
Huang Xiaoli was reluctant to become a concubine instead of a legal wife, but thinking of Jun Ye's kindness to her and with her mother's happiness in sight, she compromised.
My mother was also a concubine, but she has lived a good life all these years. My father treats her better than the mistress, so I may not be any worse off than my mother.
Xiao Xiao just kept crying while holding her daughter, and no matter how Huang Xiaoli tried to comfort her, it was no use.
Two months later, people from Neutron City arrived; it was a man and a woman.
Their aura was truly that of handsome men and beautiful women, exuding an ethereal charm.
"Huang Jiajinxuan and his clansmen welcome their Martial Uncle and... Fairy Xiao."
Huang Xiaoli's head was being held down tightly by her mother. She really wanted to see what the immortal from Zhongzi City looked like, but her mother wouldn't let her.
With a flick of her sleeve, the woman made Huang Jinxuan stand up.
“Brother Xuan, there’s no need to be so formal. We haven’t seen each other for twenty years. We must have a proper get-together this time.”
Huang Jinxuan stared intently at Xiao Xianzi; anyone could tell there was a story between them.
Huang Xiaoli finally found an opportunity. She raised her head to look at Fairy Xiao, but she froze the next second.
This woman looks just like her mother.
Fairy Xiao also saw Huang Xiaoli, and after thinking for a moment, she understood.
"Brother Xuan, this is so boring. Why do you do this? It's just annoying for no reason."
After saying that, she frowned, flicked her sleeves, and left.
Huang Jinxuan stared at Xiao Xianzi's retreating figure, gave a bitter smile, and then ordered his men to send Xiao Xiao and Huang Xiaoli back to their rooms, and ordered them to be guarded and not allowed to leave without permission.
They were actually placed under house arrest.
Huang Mingyue watched all this thoughtfully. She couldn't help but feel a pang of sympathy for Huang Xiaoli. Perhaps ignorance is bliss.
Huang Xiaoli watched her mother fall silent, and she thought of the fairy Xiao who resembled her mother.
One day later, Xiaoxiao passed away.
Huang Xiaoli seemed to have grown up a lot, and she understood that everything was different now.
It turns out that all the favor she received came from her mother.
My mother was in good health, but she passed away after my father came that night.
That night, Huang Xiaoli heard her mother seemingly pleading for something. Later, her father left, and her mother never woke up again.
After her mother died, her father never came to the courtyard again. He even took back her token that allowed her to go out at will and her guards, leaving only a maid to take care of her.
It seems that the previous sixteen years of favor were all just a dream.
Huang Xiaoli also fell silent. Her mother was gone, and she had no home anymore.
Three days later, Huang Mingyue left the Huang family with her grandmaster. She was about to go to Zhongzi City, where a higher and bigger stage and countless opportunities awaited her.
It seems that Fairy Xiao has reconciled with Huang Jinxuan. When she left, Huang Jinxuan even gave her a shuttle-shaped jade pendant.
The day of her wedding was fast approaching, but Huang Xiaoli only brought a small bundle with her; the Huang family had not prepared any dowry for her.
If they hadn't already been engaged, Huang Xiaoli might have followed in her mother's footsteps.
The betrothal gifts brought by the Jun family were taken back exactly as they were. The Jun family members looked at each other in dismay, thinking that this was extremely impolite.
Huang Xiaoli forced herself to sit in the sedan chair, still holding a sliver of hope that Jun Ye must love her.
She had figured it out: in this world, only her mother's love for her was real; her father didn't love her, and she didn't care about him anymore.
However, she didn't expect that Jun Ye would also regret it.
The Jun family has received news that Huang Mingyue has advanced to the Great Spirit Master realm and has gone to Zhongzi City.
They were fooled. The Huang family is really something, exchanging a good-for-nothing for a genius.
Huang Xiaoli faced immense difficulties in the Jun family, finding no place to stand. She struggled desperately in the Jun family's backyard, feeling utterly miserable.
Jun Ye hated her for deceiving him and felt no pity for her. Whenever he was unhappy, he would torment Huang Xiaoli and use her as a tool to vent his anger.
Huang Xiaoli lived like this, day after day, year after year, not knowing what the meaning of her life was anymore.
Three years later, she finally could not bear it any longer and, taking advantage of Jun Ye's drunkenness, committed suicide with him.
Huang Mingyue had just returned home in glory with her husband when she heard about Huang Xiaoli's situation. She went to the Jun family and wiped them out.
In fact, Huang Mingyue returned with a mission. Seeking revenge for her sister was just an excuse; her real target was the Jun family's spirit mine.
Huang Xiaoli never understood until her death that she was just a pawn from beginning to end, not even a cannon fodder.
"Miss, we've arrived."
Xiao Li opened her eyes. She had just received her memories. Huang Xiao Li's wish was to protect her mother and live a peaceful life.
However, in this continent where martial prowess reigns supreme, the safety of ordinary people is not easily guaranteed.
Only by being strong can one avoid being bullied; this is an eternal truth.
The carriage curtain was lifted, and a maid helped Xiaoli down from the carriage. She looked at the teahouse in front of her; this was where the original owner and Junye had their date.
Since we're here, let's go up and take a look.
Once inside the private room, Jun Ye dismissed the maids and personally poured a cup of tea for Xiao Li, then handed her some snacks from the side.
"Ah Li, are you hungry? Have some snacks to tide you over, and I'll take you to eat something delicious later."
