C1 I Want to Cancel the Engagement!!
I want to cancel the engagement!
The Heavenly Dream Dynasty, Bluestone City.
The Qin Family was one of the hegemons in the city, and the Qin Manor was even more luxurious and grand. At this moment, it was decorated with lanterns and banners, and guests were gathered in the hall. It was a festive scene.
Today was the joyous day of Qin Yueshuang and son of the mayor, Tang Ao. As the alliance of two major forces in the city, it attracted the attention of countless people.
However, at this moment, the atmosphere in the inner hall of the Qin Manor was somewhat depressing.
A young man dressed in red with a guilty look in his eyes looked apologetically at the peerless woman in front of him. Her soft and beautiful body trembled slightly, and she quickly recovered her calm. Her bright eyes and white teeth did not reveal a trace of abnormality.
Qin Wudao, the patriarch of the Qin Family, was furious. He gritted his teeth and said, "Nephew, repeat what you just said!"
Although it was very impolite, Tang Ao still said apologetically, "Uncle, this marriage … I can't marry."
The entire audience was speechless.
"You!" Qin Wudao was furious, and his face turned ashen.
The Qin Family members were all furious, and they stared at Tang Ao ferociously.
"You want to cancel the engagement?" The peerless woman said as she exhaled like a flower.
"Sorry."
Tang Ao looked at the woman who had rejected his marriage and muttered, "If there is anything that I can compensate for, please say it. I will definitely do it."
"What can you compensate for!"
Qin Wudao sneered, his gaze was filled with anger, and he said with hatred, "Tang Ao, you think too highly of yourself!"
Tang Ao was silent for a moment, and then he revealed a look of shame.
However, he still revealed a resolute gaze. He could not marry her!
At this moment, he had feelings in his heart. That woman was waiting for him. For her, Tang Ao was willing to be a shameless person. Even if he had to bear the eternal condemnation, he would not hesitate!
"If you want to revoke the marriage, I agree."
After a long time, Qin Yueshuang said indifferently, as if she was relieved, and more so, calm. Her tone was gentle as she said, "Give me your sincerity."
"I'm sorry, as compensation, I am willing to …"
Before Tang Ao could finish his words, he was interrupted by the young girl's melodious words.
"I want your Tang Family's Destiny Stone. Give it to me, and this matter will be written off."
Destiny Stone, the Tang Family's precious treasure. It was rumored to be a divine stone that fell from the Nine Heavens, and it had the effect of changing one's fate. It was priceless!
"I've already brought it." Tang Ao nodded. He originally had this intention. Towards this woman, the most precious compensation he could think of was this item.
Tang Ao took out a stone that was emitting a bright light from his pocket, and immediately attracted everyone's attention. Everyone's breathing hastened as they stared at this divine stone with burning eyes.
"Forget it, the melon that is forcefully twisted will not be sweet … Nephew, you really disappoint me." At this moment, Qin Wudao seemed to be discouraged. He sat down on the chair with a sad expression.
Tang Ao handed over the Destiny Stone, but he was still apologetic. He muttered to the young girl, "I wish you good luck in finding a good husband in the future."
Watching Tang Ao leave, Qin Wudao waved his hand, and the entire room of people retreated. There would be people to deal with the matter of the engagement today, and send the guests away, and at the same time, explain the matter of the son of the mayor coming to cancel the engagement.
"Yue Er, this plan is brilliant! It's just that you have been wronged, and your reputation has been implicated by that brat."
After a long time, Qin Wudao, who was sitting on the chair, suddenly sat up, and his eyes revealed a trace of light, as he stared at the divine stone in Qin Yueshuang's hand with great excitement.
"It's fine."
Qin Yueshuang raised her eyebrows, her gaze was still calm as she said, "With the Destiny Stone, my daughter will be able to awaken the Dao Body of Heaven's Mandate. From now on, he and I, one in the sky, one in the earth."
"That's right, that brat thought that he had found his true love, but he didn't know that this was all a trap set up by our Qin Family." Qin Wudao's eyes turned cold, and he said excitedly: "Young lady, quickly fuse with the Destiny Stone. Once you succeed, even if that old man Tang Zhan comes back, he won't be able to do anything to our Qin Family!"
...
"Although I lost the Destiny Stone, I think that Father will definitely not blame me when he returns. After all, I found a better wife for him."
Tang Ao returned to the City Lord's Mansion with a relaxed and happy expression. He could not wait to change into his groom's robe, and the butler Fober, who was following behind him, had a bitter expression on his face as he said anxiously: "Young Master, this … What should we do?"
"Are you talking about the curses of the people? I don't care." Tang Ao knew that the old man was referring to the matter of him remarrying and abandoning the Qin Family's beloved daughter, but he didn't care. After laughing, he turned around and left the City Lord's Mansion, heading towards a Manor in the northern suburbs.
"Ru Er must have been waiting anxiously. She still doesn't know that I have made this decision. When she sees me later, she will definitely be very surprised!"
Tang Ao's eyes revealed a gentle smile, and his heart was filled with anticipation.
Soon, they arrived at the Northern Suburbs Manor. Tang Ao walked straight in, but at this moment, the Manor was abnormally strange. There was not a single servant or bodyguard. Tang Ao was anxious and hurriedly rushed into Ru Er's room.
"Ru Er, where are you?"
He shouted loudly and saw that the house was empty. He suddenly froze.
A wisp of panic appeared in his heart for no reason. Tang Ao's expression became anxious as he continued to search, but he didn't find a single person.
In the end, Tang Ao found some clues in Ru Er's room.
All the clothes in the wardrobe were gone, and all the gold and silver belongings were also cleaned up. From the looks of it, it seemed that the owner of this house had packed his luggage and left on his own.
"Ru Er left?" Tang Ao's expression froze, and he suddenly screamed, "No, that's impossible!"
After an unknown period of time, Tang Ao returned to the City Lord's Mansion in a daze.
A day later, news came from Bluestone City. The son of the mayor, Tang Ao, had abandoned the Qin Family's beloved daughter, Qin Yueshuang, who was about to marry him. For a moment, countless people cursed Tang Ao and accused him of being a man.
A few days later, the butler, Fober, walked in with a strange expression and bowed with his hands clasped. "Young Master, someone said that he saw Miss Ru's figure at the border. She … She was followed by the guards of the Qin Family. It doesn't seem like she was coerced, but instead, it seems like she was protecting him."
"This matter seems to be related to the Qin Family."
After a long time, Fober revealed a fact that made his heart beat faster.
Bang!
Tang Ao turned his head and looked towards the Northern Suburbs Manor. He did not believe that he would go and investigate the clues!
When he arrived at the Northern Suburbs Manor, Tang Ao rushed in. Suddenly, his footsteps paused, and he saw a familiar figure standing in the Manor.
Qin Yueshuang raised her head, and her long black hair shone with a holy light under the sunlight. She was like a fairy in the sky, and her perfect face was so beautiful that it made people feel suffocated.
"It's you who took away Ru Er!" Tang Ao stopped in his tracks.
"You still don't understand?" Qin Yueshuang suddenly said.
"The meeting between you and Ru Er was a trap."
Qin Yueshuang sneered, and her sleeves floated over as she said faintly, "I didn't expect you to be such a sentimental person. Tsk tsk …"
"Do you think that I care about you? A mortal without any qualifications, what right do you have to marry me?"
"Destiny Stone, a supreme treasure. Your Tang Family doesn't understand it at all. It's because the Destiny Stone can help me communicate with the Heaven's Mandate Law, allowing me to become the Dao Body of Heaven's Mandate! When I found out about the existence of the Destiny Stone, I had been conspiring all this time. How should I seize it from your Tang Family?"
Qin Yueshuang's words were like thunder, causing Tang Ao to be shocked.
"You are too stupid. You sent out a maidservant to bewitch you so much, haha, if it wasn't for the sake of the Qin Family's reputation, I would have kicked you a long time ago. After all, you and I are destined to be people from different worlds. But now, it's fine. That girl has actually enchanted you so deeply, and is willing to bear the blame and take the initiative to propose an annulment of the marriage with me, and compensate our Qin Family."
"Go. I will tell you the truth. It's just to make your heart die. The person you love is just a chess piece for me. In this life, just like this, as a mortal, live on."
Qin Yueshuang looked at Tang Ao indifferently. Her expression was so cold as she floated away.
Tang Ao was left alone.
"Mortal, without any talent?"
"Ru Er, why are you like this!"
Tang Ao muttered, his expression could not be said to be sad, despair, or bitter.
At this moment, memories from the distant past surfaced in Tang Ao's mind.
Ten thousand years ago, he had transformed into an invincible Demon Sovereign, rampaging through the three realms. He had never lost a battle, but in the end, he was defeated by himself.
He was invincible for his entire life, but he was lonely for his entire life!
He died a lonely death …
In this life, when he opened his eyes, Tang Ao finally realized that he still had the memories of his previous life.
When he was ten years old, he made a decision. Cultivation in his previous life was cruel. He had had enough of the days of licking the blood of the blade. So in this life, he wanted to be a mortal and live an ordinary life.
When he met Ru Er, Tang Ao felt that his wish in this life was enough!
But who would have thought that all of this was just a dream?
"Hehe, mortal?"
Tang Ao laughed, but there was no trace of sadness or pain on his face. Instead, he turned into endless laughter. His words were cold, and he said each word clearly.
"Damn the heavens, you don't want me to be mediocre? Forget it, since it's like this, I won't be mediocre anymore!"
"Seal, unseal!"
Tang Ao's eyes suddenly turned cold as he spat out the words. His hands formed a seal, and suddenly, the surrounding spiritual energy became violent. Countless spiritual energy gathered and entered Tang Ao's body.
The commoners of the Bluestone City all knew that the son of the mayor, Tang Ao, had tested his Fate Soul when he was twelve years old, but he had obtained nothing in the end, and was told that he would never be able to cultivate martial arts in his life.
However, no one knew that Tang Ao was not unable to cultivate, but that he had sealed himself!
It was even to the extent that his aptitude was unique, the "cryptoplast"!
The light of the hidden jade in the rock was restrained!
However, once it was broken, it would be unparalleled!
