"Who would have thought you would take advantage of this and publicly declare that I will marry no one but you, forcibly binding me to this situation. Shouldn't I break off the engagement?"
Xiao Yan sneered, "Hmph, I am of noble Heavenly Dao Xiao Clan bloodline. You should be grateful for marrying me. This is an opportunity I'm giving you, so don't be ungrateful!"
Nangong Xiaoya shouted angrily, "I don't like you, and I don't want to curry favor with someone powerful. Why should I insist on marrying you? There's no such logic in the world!"
At this moment, the prefect of Xiping Prefecture coughed.
"Xiaoya, what Young Master Yan said isn't wrong. You won't lose out by marrying him. Others who want to marry into the Xiao clan don't even have this opportunity!"
The other sect leaders also nodded in agreement.
"Yes, the Heavenly Dao Xiao Clan is such a powerful force, and Young Master Yan is so outstanding. If we follow him, we'll live a life of luxury and comfort. Wouldn't that be wonderful!"
"Feelings can be cultivated. Just because you don't like someone now doesn't mean you won't like them in the future!"
"Exactly, young people are shy, but they'll get used to it after spending more time with them!"
Seeing that the sect leaders were overwhelmingly siding with Xiao Yan.
Nangong Xiaoya's face turned pale with anger.

"Queen Xingyun truly lives up to her reputation as a peerless beauty; she's still so stunning!"
Nangong Xingyun coldly looked at Xiao Yan and said, "Xiao Ya has already made it very clear that you were the one who pestered her first, which left her with no choice but to publicly annul the engagement. Moreover, my Starry Sky Dynasty has also compensated her with 30,000 high-grade spirit crystals. We have not been disrespectful in terms of morality or reason!"
"The Heavenly Dao Xiao Clan is high and mighty, and has a divine woman to match with them. Xiao Ya is not worthy of such a place, and we have no intention of offending her. Please leave!"
Xiao Yan laughed wildly: "Hahaha, what a joke! Now that I, Xiao Yan, am here, how can this be resolved with just a few words! I'll give you three days!"
"Three days from now, I will come to your door to propose marriage, Star Queen. Although you are a bit old, I, Xiao Yan, am not an ordinary man. I will take you in at the same time, hahaha!"
Amidst wild laughter, Xiao Yan vanished from the spot.
Only Nangong Xingyun remained, her brows furrowed.
