Chapter 149 But I Can Only Feel Guilty
He is just a Patriarch of a small family. Facing the Sect Master, there seems to be no room for refutation. Why would he come to me specifically to discuss it? However, when he thought of Yanran, a thought flashed through his mind. The corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily.
Could it be... breaking off the engagement...
This thought made his palms tremble slightly, but fortunately he quickly controlled it to avoid being noticed by others.
There was a surge of anger in his heart, but he suppressed it and said in a deep voice: Elder Kuzu Ye, please come in.
Elder Ge Ye was keenly aware of the subtle changes in Xiao Zhan. He felt a little embarrassed, but for the happiness of Nalan Yanran, he cleared his throat and continued: Xiao Patriarch, the rules of Yunlan Sect are strict, and the Supreme Sect Master is very strict with Yanran. The young lady cherishes it especially, and this matter is of great importance. "
"The Sect Master has high hopes for Miss Yanran and regards her as the future leader of the Yunlan Sect. However, the rules of the sect are strict. Before officially succeeding to the throne, she must remain pure and must not get involved in worldly emotions23, and any form of engagement commitment is strictly prohibited. "
This was his carefully woven explanation designed to ease Xiao Wei's mood.
Although the Yunlan Sect's laws are strict, it does not interfere with the lifelong choices of its disciples.
"After consulting Ms. Yanran's grandfather, Mr. Nalan, we learned that she had an unsettled engagement with the Xiao family."
Therefore, he sent an envoy here to try to negotiate with the Xiao Patriarch to discuss... whether the marriage between Yanran and the noble prince could be dissolved.
"boom."
Xiao Zhan silently hit the seat with his palm. The wooden chair shattered and the fragments scattered on the floor.
How dare they question the Sect Master's decision? This is clearly an attempt to break off the engagement and negotiate!
The atmosphere in the hall suddenly solidified into silence.
Xiao Yan, who was outside the door, was unable to enter due to his late arrival, so he could only eavesdrop at the door.
What he heard was that his fiancée wanted to break off the engagement with him, and the fire burned in his heart.
What made him angry was not that Yanran broke off the engagement, but that she proposed it in front of his father, causing his father to lose face.
"Damn it."
Xiao Yan's clenched fist pierced into the palm of his hand, and blood seeped out, but he was only filled with anger.
Although he has no in-depth understanding of Yanran, he faces breaking off the engagement when they first meet. What man can accept this?
Everyone in the hall was stunned by Elder Ge's words and could not react for a moment.
They never dreamed that Yanran's trip was to propose breaking off the engagement.
The other Elders of the Xiao family, especially Xiao Zhan's competitors, looked at Xiao Zhan sarcastically. This was the moment when he was disgraced.
Xiao Zhan's face was livid, while Nalan Yanran lowered her head. She understood the mistake she had made.
Uncle Xiao, the situation has changed. I understand this is a blow to your reputation, but I can only feel guilty. Nalan Wan'er recalled Lin Feng, and incomparable determination surged in her heart. She raised her eyes, not afraid of Xiao Heng. Looking directly into his eyes with a sullen look.
Why don't you just terminate my engagement with Xiao Yan, so as to save me, a junior, from embarrassment. After all, this is something that Master personally mentioned. There was a trace of helplessness in Nalan Wan'er's words, and he sighed softly and continued.
Looking at Xiao Heng, she said again: Uncle Xiao, I understand my mistake, but I have to withdraw from this marriage today, and I hope you will make it happen. "
Very good, what a great decision, niece Nalan, your courage is really amazing.
Xiao Heng gritted his teeth and his voice was hoarse. He didn't expect Nalan Wan'er to be so determined about breaking off the engagement!
"Uncle Xiao, this is my helpless choice, just because there is no fate between me and my son Xiaoyan," Nalan Wan'er explained helplessly, his words full of apologies.
At this moment, Xiao Heng was so angry that the weak cyan Dou Qi in his body suddenly surged, and a majestic phantom lion appeared behind him. It was the Xiao family's secret skill - Crazy Lion Xin.
This was the Xuan-level mid-grade Wild Lion's Fury Cover. Upon seeing this, the children of the Xiao family stepped forward to stop them. They knew well that Xiao Heng's impulsiveness could have serious consequences. The Yunlan Sect was powerful enough to put their entire family at risk. A devastating disaster.
Xiao Heng, are you crazy? The other party is from Yunlan Sect. Do you want to involve us all? "
An elder asked sternly, if Xiao Heng takes action, the consequences will be disastrous.
Stop it, Xiao Heng. "
The other Elder also stopped eagerly.
At this moment, Ge Xuan stepped forward and protected Nalan Wan'er behind him. He would rather be injured himself to ensure her safety, and be ready to fight or retreat at any time.
Under the persuasion of the Elders, Xiao Heng finally restrained himself from Dou Qi and said in a deep voice: Niece Nalan, you really decided to break off the engagement.
Lin Feng's figure appeared in Nalan Wan'er's mind. Her eyes were firm and she said without hesitation: Yes, I must retreat! I have reasons that I can't explain. "
Outside the door, when he heard Nalan Wan'er's firm decision to break off the engagement, Xiao Yan clenched his fists tighter, anger surged like a tide, and his whole body trembled. .
