"Young Sect Master?"
Ge Ye, standing beside Nalan Yanran, also gave her a somewhat incredulous look.
However, the shock in his eyes soon disappeared, replaced by approval.
As expected of the Sect Master's personal disciple.
The Young Sect Master of the Misty Cloud Sect.
She handled people and situations even more thoughtfully than I imagined.
She must be doing this to make it easier to bring up breaking off the engagement, right?
First, she would offer Xiao Yan some help, making him feel grateful to her.
Then, when she brought up breaking off the engagement, the situation shouldn't become too awkward.
With these thoughts in mind, Ge Ye gave an almost imperceptible nod.
Only someone like her could inherit the Misty Cloud Sect and carry it to greater heights.
"As expected of someone raised by a major power. It looks like what I feared most won't happen."
At the head of the hall, a smile appeared at the corners of Xiao Zhan's mouth, replacing his earlier troubled expression.
Since Nalan Yanran had spoken up to ease Xiao Yan's embarrassment, she probably hadn't come to break off the engagement.
"Could this young lady really intend to honor her engagement to that useless brat?"
The three elders exchanged glances, each seeing the gravity in the others' eyes.
If the Nalan Family really intended to honor the engagement...
Then they would have to change their attitude toward Xiao Yan.
No matter how useless Xiao Yan was!
As long as he clung to the powerful legs of the Nalan Family and the Misty Cloud Sect, he would be someone they absolutely could not afford to offend.
"Nalan Yanran?"
Xiao Yan also looked at Nalan Yanran in surprise.
This didn't seem to be how the original plot went, did it?
Could Nalan Yanran be a transmigrator too?
"Brother Xiao Yan, if you don't want to go over there, you can sit with Xun'er instead."
Seeing Xiao Yan hesitate, Xiao Xun'er spoke with a soft laugh.
Hearing Xiao Xun'er's words, Xiao Yan felt even more strongly that something was wrong.
Although he had transmigrated more than ten years ago, he still remembered this scene where the engagement was broken off.
Nalan Yanran had definitely never helped him out of that predicament.
Should I test her again?
With that thought in mind, Xiao Yan walked slowly toward Nalan Yanran.
At this sight, everyone's expressions subtly shifted once more.
Approval appeared on Xiao Zhan's face.
The Xiao Clan's higher-ups looked worried.
A flicker of sadness flashed through Xiao Xun'er's beautiful eyes.
Meanwhile, a flash of delight crossed Nalan Yanran's lovely face, as the central figure who had set this incident in motion.
She was not a transmigrator like Xiao Yan or Steward Mo.
Rather, she was Nalan Yanran, reborn from the future.
In the future, after the five emperors had shattered the void and departed, Nalan Yanran had grown increasingly regretful of her decision to break off the engagement.
Later, for some unknown reason, she had awakened one day to discover that she had been reborn into her girlhood.
She had returned to the time when she was the Misty Cloud Sect's Young Sect Master, and after her rebirth, she discovered she was on her way to the Xiao Clan to break off the engagement.
Knowing full well that Xiao Yan would become a Dou Di in the future, she certainly had no wish to let that tragedy repeat itself.
After all, I was the Flame Emperor's rightful fiancée.
That Medusa and Xiao Xun'er only got their chance because I broke off the engagement.
This time, given a second life, Nalan Yanran would never let that tragedy repeat itself.
Thus, no one knew that she had changed her mind at the last moment.
She wasn't breaking off the engagement!
She wanted to settle on a wedding date with Xiao Yan as soon as possible.
Only then could she secure her position.
Even if Xiao Yan developed feelings for Xiao Xun'er or Medusa in the future...
They would never be able to shake her position as his principal wife.
After all, although one had a terrifying background and the other a powerful bloodline, she was Nalan Yanran, living her second life.
With her memories of the future, she believed she would never be inferior to Xiao Xun'er or Medusa.
And now, watching Xiao Yan ignore Xiao Xun'er and walk toward her, Nalan Yanran could hardly contain her excitement.
I can finally make up for my past mistake!
This time, I must hold tightly to this man who will become a Dou Di.
"Young Master Xiao Yan, I'm Nalan Yanran. I'm your..."
When Xiao Yan reached her, Nalan Yanran introduced herself with a faint blush on her lovely face.
But before she could finish, Xiao Yan flung a letter of repudiation into her face.
"This is what you wanted. Now you can leave my Xiao Clan."
"Remember, you didn't break off your engagement with my Xiao Clan. I, Xiao Yan, repudiated you!"
"In three years, I will personally go to the Misty Cloud Sect and let all of you see whether I, Xiao Yan, am truly useless!"
After flinging the letter of repudiation into Nalan Yanran's face, Xiao Yan spoke calmly.
In any case, all I need to do is give her the letter of repudiation and establish the three-year agreement with Nalan Yanran.
The process doesn't matter at all. What matters is whether the three-year agreement is established.
As long as there's a three-year agreement, I won't count as having changed the plot.
"A letter of repudiation?"
"You little brat! How dare you humiliate the Misty Cloud Sect's Young Sect Master!"
Seeing the letter Xiao Yan had thrown, Ge Ye, who had accompanied her, flew into a rage and slammed the table as he rose.
A terrifying aura spread from his body, making everyone in the hall instinctively retreat several steps.
A Seven-Star Great Dou Master!
This clearly surpassed Xiao Zhan, the strongest publicly known member of their Xiao Clan!
But what baffled everyone even more was how this useless brat had dared to repudiate Nalan Yanran.
Who was Nalan Yanran?
She was the young lady of the imperial capital's Nalan Family, the disciple of the Misty Cloud Sect Master.
The person who would lead the Misty Cloud Sect in the future!
Wasn't someone of her standing more than good enough for a mere useless brat with three-stage Dou Qi?
It wouldn't even be an exaggeration to say Xiao Yan was a toad that had gotten to feast on swan flesh.
Yet now, this "toad" had actually repudiated the noble swan. How could anyone accept that?
"Brother Xiao Yan..."
In the hall, Xiao Xun'er was probably the only person who felt delighted.
When she had seen Xiao Yan walk toward Nalan Yanran, her heart had sunk into the depths. But seeing that he had actually gone over to deliver a letter of repudiation, she couldn't help feeling flowers bloom in her heart.
She also involuntarily recalled how, when they were little, Xiao Yan had used Dou Qi to nourish her bones and meridians.
Indeed, Xiao Yan had already transmigrated by then. He had only done it to avoid disrupting the later plot.
It definitely wasn't because he had some unspeakable fetish!
As Xiao Xun'er thought of this, she became even more convinced that her Brother Xiao Yan liked her.
He must be repudiating Nalan Yanran for my sake.
Since Brother Xiao Yan has already gone this far for me...
Then no matter what, I must help Brother Xiao Yan break off this engagement.
Even if I have to ask Elder Ling to visit the Misty Cloud Sect himself, I'll spare no effort.
With Elder Ling's strength, dealing with a mere Misty Cloud Sect would surely be as easy as reaching out and taking it.
