3: Go to cancel the engagement!

"What does 'Rank' mean?"

The moment she saw the reward for Aptitude, Zhang Wanmeng panicked.

"[Based on the Host's assessment of the Dao Companion for marriage, the quality of the Favorability reward will be issued. If Favorability reaches 10,000, the System will reward a nirvana pill. At this time, based on the Host's Rank, the corresponding quality of the nirvana pill will be issued!]"

When the nirvana pill was mentioned, Zhang Wanmeng panicked even more and hastily asked, "Then, at my current Rank, what quality of Medicinal Pill will be issued?"

"[Defective nirvana pill. The Medicinal Pill's effect is less than 1%, and there is a high probability of Nirvana failure!]"

"What?!"

"Then how do I increase my Rank?"

"[The assessment interface is permanently open. After three consecutive incorrect answers, the interface will enter a seven-day cooldown period!]"

"That's good, that's good..."

"It seems I've always underestimated that guy!"

At this moment, a servant's report about Jiang Lin's invitation sounded from outside the door.

"What is that guy trying to do?!"

......

"Young Lord, the Young Miss of the Zhang Family has arrived."

Outside the door, his trusted subordinate Jiang Liu reported tremblingly.

Jiang Lin looked into the bronze mirror. The reflection of the pale, sickly Young Master curved into a gentle smile, but his eyes held an unresolvable malice.

"Let her in!"

The door opened, and Zhang Wanmeng smelled blood.

She saw Jiang Lin, draped in a snow mink cloak, sitting on a sandalwood chair.

Jiang Lin's face was pale, as if he had just recovered from a serious illness.

Despite this, Jiang Lin's spirit at this moment was something Zhang Wanmeng had never seen before.

Moreover, after a careful examination, Zhang Wanmeng discovered for the first time that Jiang Lin's appearance was actually so perfect!

It was as if Heaven and Earth had meticulously carved him, without a single flaw!

"I apologize for making Young Master Jiang wait. May I ask why Young Master Jiang invited me?"

A pleasant voice sounded, and Jiang Lin looked at the incoming person.

Dressed in a pure white long robe, she was as graceful as a startled swan, her peerless beauty adorned with a cold and arrogant expression.

Needless to say, she was definitely the true female lead!

Nine Heavens Rainbow Phoenix Heart, Zhang Wanmeng.

The only daughter of the Zhang Family, one of the Four Great Families.

One of the Four Dao Sons of the top Sect, Dao Heaven Sect.

The goddess whom the original Jiang Lin had groveled to for many years.

Seeing that the person setting the stage had arrived, Jiang Lin's lips curved into a slight smile, and he feigned gentleness, saying:

"Wanmeng, have you rested well these past two days?"

Seeing Jiang Lin's hypocritical appearance, a trace of complexity flashed in Zhang Wanmeng's eyes.

Thinking of the three assessment questions, she confirmed that Jiang Lin's current facade was absolutely false!

She widened her eyes, desperate to see his true face.

However, she still failed, defeated by Jiang Lin's acting skills, honed through countless instances.

They were simply flawless!

Could there be a problem with the Heavenly Dao System?

The person in front of her was a standard scion!

Seeing Zhang Wanmeng in a daze, Jiang Lin frowned: "Wanmeng, what's wrong with you?"

Zhang Wanmeng quickly snapped back to reality: "Thank you for your concern, Young Master Jiang. I'm doing well."

At this moment, Jiang Lin went straight to the point.

"Wanmeng, do you know Xiao Dong?"

Zhang Wanmeng was stunned. After failing to recall the person, she shook her head.

"Xiao Dong is the son of the former 'God of War' Xiao Zhan. He just returned from the Small World. I remember that some years ago, Xiao Zhan seemed to have made a marriage arrangement with your esteemed father..."

Jiang Lin said, hinting at something.

So that's how it is!

In an instant, Zhang Wanmeng understood Jiang Lin's "thoughts."

Jiang Lin had always regarded her as his exclusive possession, and upon learning of her engagement, he must be displeased.

In a moment, I'll explain the situation and soothe his anger, which will definitely increase his Favorability.

"That engagement was merely a jest; with Xiao Zhan's death, it no longer counts!"

"It's written in black and white, how can it be a jest? Xiao Zhan is dead, but Xiao Dong is still alive!"

"I will not marry Xiao Dong..."

"Wanmeng, you wouldn't want a life to be lost because of a marriage contract, would you?"

Jiang Lin's expression was calm, but a fierce glint had already appeared in his eyes.

He currently had no Favorability for these female leads.

If these people could be pawns, then he would let them live.

If they didn't cooperate, then he was sorry, he had ways to make them cooperate.

Hearing this, Zhang Wanmeng also got a little angry.

But thinking of Jiang Lin's petty nature, she also found it reasonable.

Thinking of the Favorability she needed, she suppressed her temper and said, "Young Master Jiang, what do you mean?"

Jiang Lin said unceremoniously, "Go to their door and dissolve the engagement!"

At this moment, the Zhang Family Elder beside them hastily spoke up:

"Young Master Jiang, absolutely not. Going to their door to break off the engagement is tantamount to slapping them in the face. It would be better to dissolve it by letter..."

"I agree!"

A crisp voice interrupted Elder Zhang's words.

Elder Zhang was stunned, and even Jiang Lin was a little dazed.

Jiang Lin had already thought about how to threaten Zhang Wanmeng.

The Lifespan of the Zhang Family's Old Ancestor, the Qin Sect on the verge of collapse, and the Zhang Family's current situation of being targeted everywhere...

But he didn't expect this girl to be so understanding!

Did his threat work?

As expected of the male and female leads, they started protecting each other before even meeting?

This is good too, saves him the trouble of wasting words!

"[Ding, Favorability +1!]"

Hearing the voice in her mind, Zhang Wanmeng's Soul trembled.

It really worked!

For the nirvana pill, I'm sorry!

Revered Master can't wait much longer!

I can no longer refuse Jiang Lin. This is a good opportunity to increase Favorability...

On the other side,

Elder Zhang knew that the outcome could no longer be changed. He sighed deeply and said helplessly:

"When should the engagement be broken? I'll notify the Xiao Family in advance."

"There's no time like the present. Let's set off now, Wanmeng, what do you think?"

It seemed like a question, but Jiang Lin's attitude was strong, directly setting it in stone.

I'm going to destroy the Kunlun Realm right now!

"Good!"

Zhang Wanmeng didn't hesitate either.

For Revered Master, I'll just inconvenience your Xiao Family a bit!

For twenty years, my Zhang Family has strongly supported your Xiao Family.

At a critical moment, sacrificing a bit of your reputation shouldn't be too much, right?

"[Ding, Favorability +2!]"

Favorability increased again!

Good direction!

However, it only adds one or two each time. Can't it add more?

How long will it take to reach 10,000 Favorability?

It seems I need to do things that require more cooperation.

"Then, Wanmeng, let's depart now!"

"Mm, okay!"

Elder Zhang slapped his forehead, his face full of resentment.

What kind of madness has this Young Miss gotten into, accompanying that evil Young Master in such nonsense!

Breaking off the engagement by going to their door with such fanfare is tantamount to declaring war!

No, I must notify the Xiao Family in advance.

It's all because Jiang Lin forced me!

......

Xiao Family, Reception Hall.

Jiang Lin observed the surrounding terrain, having already decided on his method.

It was completely impossible to directly make a move and subdue Xiao Dong.

Although he was at the Nascent Soul Stage, and Xiao Dong was at the Golden Core Peak, one Rank higher.

But in cool novels, which protagonist doesn't have a way to kill enemies above their Rank?

In this plot, Xiao Dong had many abilities to kill enemies above his Rank.

In the Small World, he had a record of slaying Nascent Souls.

Moreover, he was still under the influence of the other party's Gu technique...

Then there was only one way: to use underhanded tricks!

Poison!

No matter the situation, poison was the most effective method!

Whether it was from a lower Rank to a higher one, or from few to many, it was always effective.

However, this poison could not be discovered by the "Medicine Immortal" Duan Tianya inside Xiao Dong's body.

Therefore, only one type of poison could be used: hallucinogenic mind-confusing drug!

A top-tier mind-altering drug for the Soul!
