"Qingxuan, didn't you say you'd already broken off the engagement with that good-for-nothing Xiao Chen and wanted to be with me? Why haven't you destroyed the marriage contract yet?"

Xiao Zhentian was about to speak when Xiao Lingtian suddenly cried out, looking utterly distraught.

His eyes were filled with shock and disappointment.

Ye Qingxuan was actually going to return the marriage contract to Xiao Zhentian, meaning she wasn't planning to call off the engagement?

But hadn't she been saying all these years how much she loathed Xiao Chen and wanted to be with him? Why the sudden change of heart?

As soon as he said this, many people in the crowd cast disdainful glances at Xiao Lingtian.

As a younger brother, Xiao Lingtian actually wanted to steal his older brother's fiancée. What was the world coming to? How could anyone do something so beastly!

No wonder Xiao Chen was forced to leave the Zhenbei King Manor. Who could put up with a brother like that!

"Xiao Lingtian, please have some self-respect. I am Xiao Chen's fiancée, your future sister-in-law. The way you're speaking is simply outrageous!"

Ye Qingxuan said, glancing at Xiao Lingtian with a cold expression.

Call off the engagement with Xiao Chen? She had indeed been thinking that way for the past few years, but after witnessing Xiao Chen's terrifying talent in swordsmanship, she changed her mind.

Xiao Lingtian's talent was strong, worthy of being called a peerless prodigy, but compared to an unparalleled sword immortal in the making like Xiao Chen, he seemed insignificant.

And Xiao Chen had actually hooked up with a woman even more beautiful than her right after breaking off their engagement. She couldn't accept that and had to win Xiao Chen back!

"Hahaha… outrageous? Ye Qingxuan, I love you so much. I even severely injured that good-for-nothing Xiao Chen to help you break off the engagement. And this is how you treat me?"

Xiao Lingtian said with a bleak look in his eyes, forcing a laugh.

As soon as he said this, the crowd was shocked once again.

Injuring his own brother, who had saved him, for a woman? Could a human being really do that?

"Lingtian, you actually injured your brother? You…"

Wen Wanrong couldn't believe what she was hearing, staring at Xiao Lingtian in shock.

So what her eldest son had said before was true. Xiao Lingtian really had injured him. How laughable that she had thought her eldest son was lying and considered him to be of low character.

Now it seemed she was completely wrong!

Xiao Zhentian's eyes were also full of surprise, looking at Xiao Lingtian with a stunned expression.

His youngest son, whom he had always believed to be upright and honest, had actually lied to them?

"Hahaha, yes, I'm a bad person. I'm despicable and shameless…"

Xiao Lingtian looked like he was going mad.

"Lingtian, you…"

Xiao Zhentian wanted to reprimand him sternly, but seeing his youngest son's distraught state, he couldn't bear to be harsh and swallowed back the words he was about to say.

Wen Wanrong looked at Xiao Lingtian's pale face, unable to help feeling sorry for him. She softly comforted him, "Child, don't be sad. Mother believes you didn't do it on purpose. You like Qingxuan. Mother will talk to your brother and have him give you the engagement. He's the older brother, he should agree! "

She had indeed felt that her youngest son's behavior was a bit excessive, but on second thought, what was wrong with liking someone? Didn't that just show that her youngest son was deeply in love and a devoted person?

As for Xiao Chen, although it would be unfair to ask him to give up the engagement, he was, after all, the older brother, with a stronger ability to bear things and more understanding. She believed he would understand. They couldn't let a woman cause the brothers to turn against each other, could they?

"Qingxuan should have belonged to me in the first place. Xiao Chen is cursed by the heavens. How is he worthy of Qingxuan?"

Xiao Lingtian said through gritted teeth.

Xiao Zhentian glanced at Xiao Lingtian but said nothing.

His youngest son was still young and had temporarily gone astray. He could teach him slowly.

As for Ye Qingxuan, he would personally ask the Xia Emperor for a marriage decree. He believed the Xia Emperor would give him face.

The crowd below felt a chill run down their spines at this scene.

The Zhenbei King and his wife's attitude towards the two brothers was as different as heaven and earth.

Not only did the younger son seduce the elder son's betrothed, but he also severely injured the elder son while his cultivation hadn't recovered. Not only did the Zhenbei King and his wife not say a harsh word, but they even thought of having the elder son give up the engagement to fulfill his younger brother's wishes. No one could stand for that!

"Heh heh, the Zhenbei King and his wife are too biased. They simply don't treat Xiao Chen like a human being. No wonder Xiao Chen wants to sever ties with this family!"

"That's right. The younger brother does something so beastly, and the parents don't strictly stop him. Instead, they think of having the elder son sacrifice himself. It's simply absurd!"

"Hey, I heard that Xiao Chen and the Ninth Princess have been childhood sweethearts. Xiao Chen is deeply in love with her. Now that the Zhenbei King is playing matchmaker against their will, I don't know how heartbroken he must be! Xiao Lingtian is his son, but isn't Xiao Chen his son too? Being so biased, they simply don't deserve to be parents!"

Some people spoke up, unable to help speaking in low voices.

They had originally thought that Xiao Chen's departure from the Zhenbei King Manor was due to his own rebellious and low character, but now, seeing the Zhenbei King and his wife's biased attitude, they would have made the same choice as Xiao Chen if they were in his shoes.

"Oh, Xiao Lingtian, it hasn't been long since we last met. Why are you talking bad about me behind my back again?"

Just then, a slightly mocking voice rang out from not far away. A young man in white, as white as snow, carrying a broken sword on his back, slowly walked out of the crowd.

Beside the young man was a stunningly beautiful girl who looked like a fairy descended from heaven, and a slovenly old man carrying a wine gourd, reeking of alcohol.

"Xiao Chen? Why is he here?"

"Looking at the long sword he's carrying on his back, could it be that he's really become a sword cultivator?"

"Who is that woman next to him? She's too beautiful! Even more beautiful than the Ninth Princess!"

Everyone turned to look and immediately exclaimed in surprise.

Many people who saw Lin Qingxian beside Xiao Chen couldn't help but reveal a touch of amazement in their eyes. They had never seen such a beautiful woman in their lives, almost like someone from another world.

As luck would have it, Xiao Chen had originally come to Barren North City with Chou Wantian and Lin Qingxian to purchase food, but unexpectedly, he encountered Xiao Lingtian cursing him. Naturally, he couldn't tolerate that.

Xiao Zhentian and the others were also slightly stunned when they saw Xiao Chen, and sensing the sharp,逼人 sword energy on Xiao Chen's body, a touch of surprise immediately appeared in their eyes.

A sword cultivator!

Xiao Chen had really become a sword cultivator!

Moreover, judging from the intensity of the sword energy on Xiao Chen's body, the sword dao talent Xiao Chen possessed was definitely terrifying.

Zhang Mohu, who was on the side, flashed a hint of resentment and killing intent in his eyes when he saw Xiao Chen.

He secretly mobilized the Blood Essence throughout his body, planning to kill Xiao Chen directly before Xiao Zhentian could react. Even if Xiao Zhentian retaliated against him afterward, he couldn't care less. The grudge of killing his son must be avenged!

"Xiao Chen, you good-for-nothing, you actually dare to show your face? I'll kill you!"

But the one who acted even before Zhang Mohu was Xiao Lingtian, who was in a fit of rage. When he saw Xiao Chen, his eyes immediately turned red. He jumped up and punched fiercely towards Xiao Chen.

A terrifying aura suddenly erupted, and Xiao Lingtian shot out like an arrow leaving the bowstring.

The fist wind was fierce!

The killing intent was soaring!

He used all his strength in this punch, so he was confident of success. He simply didn't believe that Xiao Chen could kill Zhang Youzhi.

In his opinion, a master from the Sword Immortal Academy must have secretly helped Xiao Chen at that time. Otherwise, how could Xiao Chen, who had just recovered his cultivation, be able to kill Zhang Youzhi?

Zhang Youzhi was someone even he couldn't kill!

"Damn, Xiao Lingtian is actually launching a sneak attack?"

"This punch is so terrifying, even if Xiao Chen is a sword cultivator, he probably can't withstand it, right?"

"Definitely. A sword cultivator's physical body isn't strong. If he doesn't have time to draw his sword, Xiao Chen will most likely be finished!"

The crowd immediately exclaimed.

A sword cultivator's entire combat strength lies in a sword, and their physical body isn't strong. Xiao Lingtian is a martial artist with a terrifying physical body. With this punch, Xiao Chen is likely to die on the spot.

"Lingtian, stop!"

"Hold on!"

Xiao Zhentian was about to step forward to stop him, but Zhang Qitian reached out and stopped him.

"Senior, what do you mean by this?"

"Xiao Chen's physical body seems to have something strange about it. Xiao Lingtian can't hurt him!"

As soon as these words came out, a strange look flashed in Xiao Zhentian's eyes, and he turned to look at Xiao Chen.

After observing carefully, he found that in addition to the faint, sharp sword energy permeating Xiao Chen's body, the Blood Essence on his body was also particularly vigorous, not at all like a sword cultivator with an ordinary physical strength.

His physical strength was even much stronger than some martial artists who had worked hard to train their physical bodies.

What was going on?

"Prepare to die! Eat my Tyrant Fist!"

In an instant, Xiao Lingtian had already arrived in front of Xiao Chen, and his fist slammed towards Xiao Chen's head.

He was very confident that Xiao Chen would definitely not be able to withstand his punch and would be killed on the spot.

Xiao Lingtian glanced at Xiao Chen, wanting to see a trace of fear on his face, but found that Xiao Chen was calm and composed, with even a hint of sarcasm hanging on the corner of his mouth.

A trace of doubt suddenly arose in his eyes.

What's going on?

However, just as he was puzzled, Xiao Chen didn't draw his sword and directly threw a punch.

If it were another sword cultivator, they might have been killed by Xiao Lingtian's sneak attack, but Xiao Chen possessed the Martial God Physique, and his physical strength was also very abnormal, so he wasn't afraid at all!

Seeing this, Xiao Lingtian revealed a trace of contempt on his face.

You're a sword cultivator who doesn't think about drawing your sword, but wants to fight me with your physical body? You're simply courting death!

However, under Xiao Lingtian's astonished gaze, Xiao Chen's fist struck first and landed directly on his chest.

"This... how is this possible?"

A terrifying and indescribable power instantly penetrated Xiao Lingtian's body. A trace of blood suddenly overflowed from his mouth, and he flew backward heavily, his eyes full of disbelief.
