99: Feng Family Breaks Off Engagement

【Ji Xuantian was extremely enraged by this.】

【Unexpectedly, at this moment, the Ancient Human Emperor Sword, deeply buried in the Ji Family Fortress ancestral hall, sensed something and actually broke through the earth.】

【It turned out that this was the Human Emperor Sword passed down by the Ancient Immortal Court, worn by every Human Emperor, and containing boundless Human Clan destiny. It was severely damaged in the Taigu Great War, and now it awakened upon sensing the call of the Supreme Sword Body.】

【It wanted to find a new Master, so it transformed into a white-haired old man, originally intending to test whether Ji Xuantian was qualified to become his Master.】

【But he found Ji Xuantian very pleasing to the eye.】

【Thus, he was in a great mood and decided not to test him, directly recognizing him as Master.】

【After being recognized as Master by the Human Emperor Sword, Ji Xuantian received the blessing of overwhelming Human Clan destiny, his strength surged dramatically, and he immediately exposed the Demon Clan members hidden within the Feng Family's group, easily slaying them.】

【Seeing this, Feng Juhao regretted breaking off the engagement, but it was already too late.】

【Ji Xuantian tore up the marriage contract, taking the initiative to break off the engagement!】

"Ah?"

After reading the overview of this event, Lin Sheng's entire face was blank.

Ancient Human Emperor Sword?

Wasn't that thing just an ancient relic that served as a background prop in the original work?

How did it become Ji Xuantian's opportunity now?

"Good heavens, I snatched away the Main Character's opportunity, and the Heavenly Dao directly gives the Main Character an opportunity he wasn't supposed to have?"

"Even the test is skipped, just given away for free?"

The number one immortal sword in the world, "Wentian," had already been taken by him — although it was still on its way.

Yet, he never expected this.

The Heavenly Dao actually did this so brazenly!

"Is this how it's going to be?"

"Then if I prevent the Main Character from getting opportunities, will the Heavenly Dao choose someone else as the Main Character?"

A strange look appeared on Lin Sheng's face.

Don't tell me.

He actually thought this was possible.

"Phew, fortunately, fortunately I have a cheat, otherwise how the hell could I deal with nine such Heavenly Mandated Protagonists?"

【Ding! Officially entering the event!】

The scroll unfurled, and the light screen appeared.

Crossing through the clouds, the perspective quickly zoomed in, revealing a massive ancient fortress resembling a snow-covered mountain wall.

In the central ancient fortress, in the bright main hall.

Hundreds of men and women wearing sweaters and snow-covering hats were crowded on both sides, looking with confusion and curiosity at the group from the Feng Family who had arrived with heavy gifts in the center of the hall.

"The Feng Family? What are they here for? And with gifts?"

"Is that the Feng Family's eldest Miss, Feng Qingling? She's quite pretty."

"Since Feng Qingling is here, they aren't here to break off the engagement, are they? After all, Ji Xuantian's current reputation... tsk tsk tsk."

"Possibly, their expressions don't look like they're here to congratulate."

"Look! Ji Xuantian and the others are here!"

【Narration: Ji Xuantian hurried along, finally meeting his parents who came to pick him up, and the three of them rushed to the main hall of the Ji Family Fortress together.】

Under everyone's gaze.

Ji Xuantian, wearing a black outfit, revealing his tanned and muscular arms, carrying a large black sword on his back, walked in with his parents.

"patriarch."

"patriarch."

Since the news of Ji Xuantian becoming the Nanling Sword God's successor spread some time ago, the previous head of the Ji Family Fortress quickly passed on the position to Ji Guang, Ji Xuantian's timid and fearful father.

And at this moment, being called patriarch by everyone.

Ji Guang still smiled back politely at each person.

"Hello."

"Hello."

"......"

Only Ji Xuantian's mother, Gu Lan, truly seemed like a person of high status.

Wrapped in a fiery red fox fur coat, with her arms crossed, she walked at the very front, her somewhat glamorous face filled with coldness and seriousness.

In the center of the main hall.

In front of the painting of a fierce tiger descending the mountain, separated by an exquisite gold-threaded tea table, there were two nanmu seats, one on the left and one on the right.

Gu Lan turned around gracefully, then sat down on the right seat without ceremony.

"Feng Family members."

Her eyes held a hint of anger, and she said coldly, "Don't tell me you're here to break off the engagement!"

With this setup and considering her son's reputation these past few days, she didn't think the other party was here for anything else.

Among the Feng Family's group.

Aside from the servants, the core members were Feng Juhao, the Feng Family patriarch, who was about two meters tall and wore a jade green outer coat, and his daughter beside him.

That young girl, Feng Qingling, wearing a green dress and with a charming appearance.

At this moment.

Feng Qingling was gazing at the strong-willed Gu Lan, a flicker of disdain in her eyes.

The person in charge of the Ji Family was merely at the Earth Spirit Realm, not even comparable to the servants of their Heavenly Sword Immortal Sect.

Coming to break off the engagement was indeed the right decision!

"That's right!"

Upon hearing this, all the Ji Family members in the hall changed their expressions.

Feng Juhao completely ignored Gu Lan's imposing manner, crossed his arms, and said coldly and directly, "Although our Feng Family is not one of the Nine Great Immortal Families, we are at least a renowned family in Southern Spirit."

"As for your Ji Family, you are just an unknown small family."

"Originally, we are not people who rely on power to bully others. If your son had been honest and well-behaved, even if he didn't achieve much in his life, as long as he treated my daughter well, I would have grit my teeth and accepted the marriage contract made by the two elders."

"But now?"

"Your son has done this and that now, not only possibly having mental problems but also having special habits and preferences. In that case, our Feng Family will not sit idly by and watch my daughter fall into a tiger's den."

"Therefore! This engagement must be broken today!"

Ji Guang shrank his head, looking down at the ground, seemingly trying his best to reduce his presence.

Gu Lan glanced at her disappointing husband.

Then she suddenly slapped the table!

Slap!

"Feng Family patriarch, have you thought this through?!"

"Although my son is now infamous, he is still the successor of the Nanling Sword God, still a disciple of the Sword God! He is still a young Divine King with a Supreme Sword Body!"

"If his reputation is restored or improves further one day, it will be too late for you to regret it then!!"

The look of struggle in Feng Juhao's eyes flashed past.

But his daughter was unwilling and unhappy. After returning from the Immortal Sect yesterday, she kept insisting on breaking off the engagement, even attempting to threaten him by self-harm.

Therefore, he was forced to rush over to break off the engagement.

Feng Juhao sighed in his heart.

On the surface, however, he said firmly, "Since I have come, I have thought it through!"

"These are our apologies. If your son is willing to sign, then we can part amicably."

His voice echoed in this vast hall and fortress.

The atmosphere was slightly oppressive.

Gu Lan saw the other party's determination and knew in her heart that things would not end well today.

So she turned her gaze towards Ji Xuantian.

Ultimately, she still wanted to hear her son's opinion.

"Xuantian, what do you think?"

【Life Choice Triggered!】

【Someone has come to break off the engagement, and their attitude is very firm. Your mother asks for your thoughts. You decide to——】

【A: Assertively tear up the marriage contract!】

【B: Silently accept the broken engagement.】

【C: Do not accept the broken engagement and express your love to Feng Qingling, attempting to make her change her mind.】

【D: Break off the engagement? Rape Feng Qingling, see if she still dares to break off the engagement?】
