100: Chapter 100 Taking the Loli to Annul the Engagement! Jiang Yi, I, Lu Chen, am here!
The independent space shattered, the gray sky collapsed, and the two stepped back onto the streets of Tianyuan Ancient City.
Ye Qingxian followed behind Lu Chen, her mind a complete muddle.
She secretly lifted her head to glance at the back in front of her, her eyes rolling twice.
"Revered Master."
"Hmm?"
"You lied to me."
Lu Chen stopped in his tracks and turned around.
Ye Qingxian put her hands on her hips, lifted her chin, and her large eyes were filled with accusation.
"You are clearly named Lu Chen, not Lu Guan! Who is Lu Guan?"
Lu Chen's footsteps faltered for a moment.
This name was indeed not chosen at random; he lowered his head and rubbed his nose, feeling a bit uncomfortable.
"Ah, this is someone I used to like..."
Before he could finish his sentence.
Ye Qingxian answered for him.
"Someone you liked!"
Her volume spiked by three degrees, her twin tails bounced, and she darted in front of Lu Chen, thrusting her small face forward, her expression filled with disbelief.
"No, no, no!"
Ye Qingxian shook her head three times, her twin tails swinging like a rattle-drum.
"Revered Master, you are a Great Emperor who is single-mindedly devoted to the Dao! You cannot have someone you like! Especially not Lu Guan..."
She patted her own chest, her voice righteous and confident.
"Am I not your newly accepted, cutest, most talented, and most well-connected little disciple? You can like me instead!"
After she finished, her two large eyes blinked and blinked, shining so brightly they could reflect light, her expression excessively innocent.
Lu Chen turned his face away.
He couldn't bear to look.
[What kind of wild words are these? At such a young age, she wants to sacrifice herself for the sake of a joke?]
[What kind of upbringing does the Ye Family have?]
He cleared his throat, not intending to dwell on this topic any further.
"Let's go."
"Go where?"
"Central Plains, Desolate Ancient Dao Province, the Jiang Family."
Ye Qingxian was stunned for a moment: "Why are we going to the Jiang Family?"
Lu Chen tilted his head to look at her, his right hand already grabbing the back of her collar.
"To break off the engagement."
Before Ye Qingxian could react, the Void Realm shattered beneath Lu Chen's feet, and he brought her directly, tearing through the space barrier above Tianyuan Ancient City, speeding off in the direction of the Desolate Ancient Dao Province.
---
Above the Nine Heavens, within a void passage.
Ye Qingxian was held by the back of her collar by Lu Chen, her purple-gold silk dress flapping violently in the gale, her twin tails pulled straight back into two lines.
Her mouth was puffed up by the wind, making it difficult for her to speak.
"Mas... *huff*... Revered Master!"
She twisted her head with all her might and shouted at the top of her lungs.
"Where exactly are we going! You aren't planning to sell me off, are you!"
Lu Chen did not look back, his speed not slowing.
Ye Qingxian's voice grew louder.
"I know how to do many things! I can wash your feet! Give you massages! Warm your bed! I can learn anything!"
She danced about in the wind, her shouting becoming increasingly outrageous.
"I'll listen to you no matter what position you want me to pose in! Don't! Don't sell me off!!"
Lu Chen's mouth twitched.
[The virtue I accumulated in my past life must have been completely exhausted on these few disciples in this life.]
"Shut up." He didn't turn his head. "Your Revered Master is going to the Jiang Family to break off an engagement. If you, little girl, are sharp enough, help me build some momentum when the time comes."
Ye Qingxian's struggling stopped.
"Break off an engagement?"
Her large eyes narrowed into slits in the wind, and her voice suddenly changed tone.
"Revered Master, you want to break off an engagement? With whom? Who in the Jiang Family?"
"Jiang Yi."
"Jiang Yi of the Desolate Ancient Jiang Family! That Jiang Yi who is at the Peak of the Ninth Level of the Emperor Realm!"
Ye Qingxian gasped, but then the corners of her mouth curled up.
"Hehe, don't worry, Revered Master. When it comes to building momentum, this Young Miss is the best at it!"
She gave a thumbs-up in the wind, pointing it at the back of Lu Chen's head.

Desolate Ancient Dao Province, the Jiang Family.
Below the main Peak, seven subsidiary Peaks surrounded and guarded it. On each subsidiary Peak hung ancient Emperor banners. These banners had not rotted for ten thousand years, and they moved without wind in the high sky.
The guards at the mountain gate were all at the Dragon Transformation Realm.
Not just one or two; there were three hundred and sixty Cultivators of the Dragon Transformation Realm standing in formation. Their armor was uniform, their auras were synchronized, and their bones and foundations were so deep that even the Sect Heads of most first-class powers in the outside world would have to take note.
This was a Desolate Ancient Family.
Others' Dragon Transformation Realm experts were elites; the Jiang Family's Dragon Transformation Realm experts were gatekeepers.
Lu Chen brought Ye Qingxian out from the void, landing in the space a hundred feet in front of the mountain gate.
Lu Chen paid her no mind.
He raised his right hand, his five fingers slightly spread.
He released only a sliver of his Great Emperor Peak aura.
Just that one sliver.
The Jiang Family's mountain-guarding formation emitted a dull boom. The seventy-two layers of purple-gold Heavenly Gates trembled simultaneously, purple-gold pillars of light erupted from the dragon-head pearl-holders, and the Emperor Law patterns ran frantically.
The three hundred and sixty Dragon Transformation Realm guards fell to one knee simultaneously, their faces deathly pale, sweat beading on their foreheads, their bodies trembling uncontrollably.
It was not out of fear; it was that they could not bear it.
This was suppression at the level of life itself.
Great Emperor against Dragon Transformation Realm—a single sliver of aura was enough to make the heavens collapse and the earth shatter.
Ye Qingxian stood behind Lu Chen, her mouth hanging open, unable to close it.
The little thought she had in her heart—'Wait until we get to the Jiang Family to see how you clean up this mess'—was shattered into pieces.
Inside the Jiang Family's mountain gate, dozens of divine lights shot into the sky simultaneously.
Elders of the Supreme Realm were the first to fly out. There were seven of them, split on both sides, with Magic Treasures in hand, their auras fully unleashed.
Following closely were the Emperor Realm experts.
Jiang Yang appeared first, his aura of the Sixth Level of the Emperor Realm firmly suppressing the void. His purple-gold eyes swept toward Lu Chen, his gaze heavy.
Behind him were three other Jiang Family retainers, all in the Emperor Realm, with cultivation levels ranging from the second to the fourth level.
Dozens of Great Experts hovered in the void in front of the Jiang Family mountain gate, the fluctuations of Law intertwining, and the sound of the void shattering was constant.
They were battle-ready.
Lu Chen glanced at this formation and brushed the non-existent dust off his sleeves.
Then he spoke.
His voice was not loud, but every word was wrapped in the Dao Rhyme of a Great Emperor, spreading throughout all seventy-two Heavenly Gates of the Jiang Family, reaching the ears of every Jiang Family Cultivator.
"Lu Chen of the Yunxiao Holy Land has come to visit the Jiang Family as agreed!"
The whole scene was silent for one breath, two breaths, three breaths.
At the highest point of the void, Emperor prestige descended.
Two figures.
Jiang Taixu was dressed in a purple-gold Emperor robe, his hands behind his back, his expression majestic. Ji Rushuang was in a silver-white Emperor gauze, her phoenix eyes scanning coldly.
Two Great Emperor Peak foundations appeared out of thin air directly above the Jiang Family mountain gate.
Behind them followed one person.
Lu Chen's gaze landed on her.
Jiang Yi was wearing bright red wedding robes.
A mysterious gold Phoenix coronet pressed down on her full head of dark hair, with tassels hanging by her temples, swaying lightly with the wind.
The wedding robes were embroidered with the Jiang Family's Desolate Ancient Dragon and Phoenix totem, edged with gold thread, and the skirt trailed three zhang long.
Her face was lightly made up, a floral pattern was painted between her brows, and her lips were painted with rouge.
Those phoenix eyes looked coldly at Lu Chen, expressionless.
But those bright red wedding robes said everything.
She had not come to argue; she had come to marry.
Waiting for nearly a hundred years, she had put on her wedding robes, waiting for him to come.
Lu Chen took a deep breath.
Bearing the gaze of the two Great Emperors, Jiang Taixu and Ji Rushuang, bearing the battle-readiness of dozens of Jiang Family Supreme and Emperor Realm experts, and bearing the invisible pressure brought by Jiang Yi's bright red wedding robes.
He spoke.
"I have come today only to break off the engagement!"
As the six words fell, Jiang Yi's phoenix eyes finally moved.
She lowered her head, the tassels on the wedding robe's phoenix coronet covering half her face.
No one could see her expression, but the aura on her body was surging violently.
The moment the voice was transmitted, the sky above the Jiang Family cracked.
The hem of the bright red wedding robe rolled in the wind, and the light of the gold-threaded embroidery dimmed for an instant.
Jiang Taixu's Emperor Seal had already appeared in his palm.
The phantom image of Ji Rushuang's Emperor Shield manifested in front of her.
The auras of dozens of Supreme and Emperor Realm experts in the entire Jiang Family locked onto Lu Chen simultaneously.
Jiang Yi spoke, her voice very soft, so soft that only Lu Chen could hear it.
"Lu Chen, what did you say?"
She took a step forward, her bright red skirt dragging across the void.
"Say it again."
