Yu Yun glanced at Nalan Yanran, then looked at Xiao Yan and smiled slightly, "Young Master Xiao, the Xiao Family and the Nalan Family have had a deep friendship for many years, and Nalan Yanlan is my personally taught disciple. Today's matter is just a misunderstanding. Enchanting is young and ignorant, I hope Young Master Xiao can forgive her."
Xiao Yan smiled, but there was a hint of bitterness in his smile. "Yunlan Sect Master, can you please ask Nalan Yanran to withdraw the request to annul the engagement? I don't want to let my father lose face."
Nalan Yanran's expression changed, then she turned to Yu Yun for help: "Teacher..."
Yu Yun raised her hand to signal her to be quiet. After a moment of contemplation, she spoke softly: "In fact, what happened today was indeed a bit reckless. I will withdraw her request to annul the marriage, but I want to propose a fair agreement!"
"What kind of agreement?" Xiao Yan asked, frowning.
"In three years, you will come to Yunlan Sect and challenge Nalan Yanran," Yu Yun said lightly, seeing Xiao Yan's face gradually turning pale.
She continued, "I heard that Young Master Xiao became a fighter at the age of twelve, but later, due to certain reasons, his power greatly declined. Yunlan Sect can help you restore your original strength."
Xiao Yan's expression changed from grim to surprised.
But Nalan Yanran clearly felt unhappy, thinking to herself how could the teacher help this waste regain his strength? If he regains his strength, wouldn't that put her at a disadvantage?
On the other side, the members of The Xiao Family who heard Yunyun's words suddenly regretted their previous neglect of Xiao Yan, especially the three elders, whose faces became even more ugly.
Yu Yun noticed Nalan Yanran's displeasure and comforted her, saying, "This is for the sake of fairness. Yunlan Sect will also fully cultivate enchanting, and by then, both of you will be outstanding talents, with no difference in strength."
She turned to Xiao Yan: "I understand that on this continent, it is considered a humiliation for the man if the woman calls off the engagement. But if both of you are nurtured by Yunlan Sect, with equal status, the situation will be completely different."
"If you win, you can choose whether to marry enchanting. Even if you fail, it will not damage your reputation. After all, becoming the husband of Yunlan Sect's successor Nalan Yanran is not an easy task. Just like me, I have not yet found a spouse."
"By then, even if you lose to enchanting, with your courage and the spirit of fighting against the successor of Yunlan Sect, you will win fame and have no trouble finding a woman willing to marry you."
"By doing so, the reputation of the Xiao Family can be preserved, and the matter of marriage will no longer be bound by the elders, but will be decided by the two of you in a decisive battle three years later. Xiao Yan, what do you think of this?"
Every aspect has been considered for Xiao Yan, who is surprised by this and has developed a fondness for Yu Yun, especially after she just mentioned that she is still unmarried to this day.
But when Xiao Yan saw Nalan Yanran, he couldn't help but feel displeased as he remembered Nalan Yanran's attitude towards him and his father. "YuYun Sect Master, I'm sorry, I still have something to say to Nalan Yanran, but it may make you feel uncomfortable," said Xiao Yan.
"It's okay, say what you want to say, do what you want to do," Yu Yun responded with a smile to Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan was taken aback, feeling as though Yu Yun already knew what he was going to say next.
Xiao Yan walked towards the pale-faced Nalan Yanran and said with a mocking smile, "No need to wait for three years. I really have no interest in you at all!"
After speaking, he ignored the cold-faced Nalan Yanran and quickly turned around, walking to the table and swiftly picking up the brush. The ink flowed, and the brush stopped.
Xiao Yan swiftly drew a short sword from the table with his right hand, and the blade abruptly cut open a bloody gash on his left palm... The blood dripped onto the white paper, leaving a striking bloodstain. Then, he picked up the contract and let out a cold laugh. As he passed by Nalan Yanran, he forcefully slammed the contract onto the table.
"Don't think that I, Xiao Yan, care at all about you, the so-called genius wife. This contract is not a dissolution of marriage agreement, but rather a demand for you to leave The Xiao Family's territory! From now on, you, Nalan Yanran, have no relation to The Xiao Family!"
"You... you dare divorce me?" Looking at the blood hand contract on the table, Nalan Yanran's beautiful eyes widened in disbelief. With her beauty, talent, and background, she couldn't believe she was being divorced by an unknown member of a small family. This sudden turn of events made her feel unreal.
Xiao Yan looked coldly at Nalan Yanran's shocked expression, then suddenly turned and knelt down in front of Xiao Zhan, heavily knocking his head and tightly biting his lips, but remaining silent and resolute.
Although nominally he drove Nalan Yanran away, once this matter spreads, people will not see it that way. They will only think that Nalan Yanran used her powerful background to force The Xiao Family to call off the engagement.
After all, with Nalan Yanran's talent, beauty, and background, paired with this useless young master of The Xiao Family, anyone would feel regretful and see them as mismatched. But no one would have expected that Xiao Yan would have the courage to give up the future position of the head of Yunlan Sect.
In this way, as the father of Xiao Yan, Xiao Zhan will definitely receive endless ridicule...
Looking at the kneeling Xiao Yan, understanding his guilt, Xiao Zhan smiled calmly and said, "I believe my son will not always be a waste. Mere rumors and gossip will be shattered in the face of reality in the future."
"Father, three years later, I will go to the Yunlan Sect to wash away today's humiliation for you!" With a hint of moisture in the corners of his eyes, Xiao Yan kowtowed once again, then stood up without hesitation and walked out of the hall.
As he passed Nalan Yanran, Xiao Yan's pace faltered, and he coldly and clearly uttered the words.
"After three years, I will go to Yunlan Sect to find you."
In the sunlight, the silhouette of the young man was stretched unusually long, appearing lonely and desolate. Nalan Yanran looked somewhat bewildered at the gradually receding figure, her slightly open mouth making the contract in her hand suddenly feel incredibly heavy.
" YuYun Sect Master and the three of you, since your purpose has been achieved, please leave." Xiao Zhan looked calmly at the departing youth, expressionless, but his fist in his sleeve clenched tighter and tighter until his fingertips turned pale.
Yu Yun has tried to ease the conflict, but things still did not go as she wished. Compared to the original "Battle Through the Heavens," there have been fewer conflicts, but it still inevitably brought shame to The Xiao Family.
"I will send someone to visit again soon," Yu Yun told Xiao Zhan. Xiao Zhan has slightly softened her attitude towards the sect leader, partly because she is the leader of the Yunlan Sect and possesses the strength of the Battle Emperor, and partly because she has already worked hard to save face for The Xiao Family, and has even agreed to help Xiao Yan recover his strength.
Xiao Zhan looked troubled. Yu Yun immediately understood that The Xiao Family would never accept help from the Yunlan Sect, but she still had a trick up her sleeve.
She immediately pointed to the woman transformed by Lin Zhi-xin, Gou Yunzhi, "Xiao family leader, this is a friend I met in the past. If the Xiao Family needs anything, you can ask her for help. She will assist Young Master Xiao in breaking through the difficulties of cultivation for a period of time."
Xiao Zhan and the three elders looked at Gou Yunzhi, who had previously resolved the difficulties, and understood that this was all arranged by Yu Yun. She smiled slightly at Xiao Zhan and the others, "Yes, you can come to me for help."
"Uncle Xiao, I apologize for today's events. I hope to have the opportunity to invite you to the Nalan family as a guest in the future." Nalan Yanran bowed to Xiao Zhan and then walked out of the hall, followed closely by Geya and the handsome young man.
"Take scatter qi with you!" Xiao Zhan waved his hand, and the jade box on the table was coldly thrown into the air.
Geya Quickly reaching out, he steadily caught the jade box, gave a bitter smile, and stored it in the ring.
"Miss Nalan from the Nalan family, I hope you will not regret today's decision in the future. Also, don't think that with the support of the Yunlan Sect, you can do whatever you want. The Continent of Douqi is vast, and there are many strong individuals beyond Yu Yun."
At the moment when Nalan Yanran and the others were about to leave, a young girl's clear and elegant voice, tinged with a hint of coldness, suddenly echoed in the space.
The footsteps of the four suddenly stopped, their gazes shifted slightly as they looked towards the corner where the Purple Dress Girl was leisurely flipping through a book.
The sunlight shone through the cracks of the door and windows, illuminating the girl. From a distance, she looked like a Purple lotus blooming in the mundane world, pure and elegant, untainted by worldly dust.
The girl seemed to notice their gaze and lifted her delicate little face from the ancient pages of the book. Her eyes were as clear as autumn water, but suddenly, a tiny golden flame flickered within them.
Yu Yun met her gaze and thought to himself, is this the fourth-ranked Golden Emperor Fen Tianyan? It's unbelievable that Xiao Xun'er can control such a strange fire at such a young age.
"Indeed, as Miss Xiao said, The Continent of Douqi is very vast. I also believe that Xiao Yan's future will not be limited to The Empire of Gamma. He will eventually be able to step out of this small empire," Yu Yun said lightly.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Xun'er did not show any resentment or denial. However, she felt that the other party seemed to understand her situation, which made her feel wary.
Battle Emperor's Yu Yun was not affected by the strange fire pressure controlled by Xiao Xun'er. But only Elder Geya of Seven Star Grand Master by his side couldn't remain calm.
Seeing the tiny golden flames in the girl's eyes, Geya's body trembled violently, and a look of terror instantly appeared on his old face. His withered palm quickly grabbed the already stunned Nalan Yanran and the young man, then he rushed out of the hall as if fleeing for his life...
Looking at Geya's reaction, except for a few people in the hall, the others all showed surprised expressions. They looked again in the direction of Xiao Xun'er, who was still leisurely flipping through her books.
