Your Heart Is Truly Narrow, Unable to Tolerate Even Her Cousin

Ning Xuan had barely finished speaking when-

Faint screams came from inside the Golden Exquisite Pagoda.

Then, as Liu Erlong watched in disbelief, she saw blood gushing out from beneath the golden pagoda.

In an instant, it stained the Meeting Hall red.

Liu Erlong cried out in horror. Her eyes were bloodshot, and tears quickly welled up in them.

Yu Yuanzhen was also somewhat stunned.

Sword Douluo Chen Xin had a complicated look on his face and couldn't help sighing.

Young people really did act on impulse.

How dare Ning Xuan?

[The system detected that Liu Erlong was in extreme despair. Emotional Value +2000]

[The system detected that Yu Yuanzhen was extremely shocked. Emotional Value +2000]

After harvesting Emotional Value once again, Ning Xuan finally waved his hand gently.

In an instant, the Golden Exquisite Pagoda rapidly shrank.

It turned into a streak of golden light and shot away, quietly merging into Ning Xuan's body.

At the spot where the Golden Exquisite Pagoda had just been-

Yu Luomian was not dead. The upper half of his body lay sprawled in a pool of blood as he wailed in agony.

Why say the upper half of his body?

Because the half of Yu Luomian's body below the thighs was gone.

It had been crushed to smithereens beneath the Golden Exquisite Pagoda, leaving only a pool of blood and mangled flesh.

"Dad!"

Liu Erlong cried out and was about to rush over, but Ning Xuan's voice stopped her.

"I think you'd better hurry and find a healing Soul Master."

Liu Erlong came to an abrupt halt.

Her eyes bloodshot, she glared viciously at Ning Xuan and gritted her teeth.

"Ning Xuan, fine. Fine. Fine."

"You'll never get my forgiveness again. I'll hate you for the rest of my life!"

Ning Xuan smiled without replying.

Things had come to this point. Who would still care about getting forgiveness?

Besides, had Liu Erlong still not figured out who was really at fault?

Who was forgiving whom?

Just as Liu Erlong was about to go find a healing Soul Master, Ning Xuan smiled behind her and said,

"Remember to come back. We haven't even started discussing the broken engagement yet."

Liu Erlong's steps faltered slightly.

Then, without looking back, she ran out of the Meeting Hall.

"Clan Chief Yu, I'm truly sorry."

Over on the other side, Sword Douluo Chen Xin gave a strained smile.

"My Young Sect Master just broke through to Soul Douluo and still isn't familiar with controlling his Soul Skill. Fortunately, he hasn't caused a major disaster."

Looking at Yu Luomian, who was wailing in pain on the ground, Yu Yuanzhen's mouth twitched, and his expression turned extremely grim.

This was what they called not causing a major disaster?

But sensing the faint, terrifying sword intent emanating from Sword Douluo Chen Xin, Yu Yuanzhen still took a deep breath and said,

"Chen Xin."

"Your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect must give me an explanation."

Regardless of whether the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was powerful, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan had to take this stance. Otherwise, Yu Yuanzhen would no longer be able to lead the clan.

"Let's talk about the broken engagement first."

Ning Xuan interjected.

He pulled out another chair and sat down, then poured himself a cup of tea. Only then did he speak at his leisure.

"I wonder if Clan Chief Yu has prepared the betrothal gifts to be returned."

Yu Yuanzhen's expression turned grim again.

He looked at Sword Douluo Chen Xin.

"Chen Xin, is this the position of your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?"

Sword Douluo Chen Xin remained impassive.

"The Young Sect Master can fully represent the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."

His voice was calm, yet left no room for doubt.

"Good."

Yu Yuanzhen sneered.

Just then, Liu Erlong entered the Meeting Hall with several members of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. They carefully lifted Yu Luomian onto a stretcher.

Hearing this, Liu Erlong also turned around angrily.

"Ning Xuan, you really have some nerve. What right do you have to come to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan to break off the engagement?"

"Aren't you afraid of completely disgracing the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?"

"What do I have to be afraid of?"

Ning Xuan sneered as well.

"Take the Second Master away and get him treated at once."

Yu Yuanzhen gave the order, then continued in a low, solemn voice.

"Chen Xin, I know everything that happened. Are you sure you want to break off the engagement?"

"Of course."

Sword Douluo Chen Xin nodded solemnly.

"It's also the Sect Master's intention."

"Good."

Yu Yuanzhen turned and walked toward his seat.

"Then we'd better discuss this properly."

"Our two clans have been joined by marriage for more than ten years. Your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has also kept my niece waiting for more than ten years. How should we settle that account?"

"And you want to break off the engagement?"

"You're entirely at fault for what happened, and it has nothing to do with my niece. You're the ones who proposed breaking off the engagement. What right does the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect have to demand the return of the betrothal gifts?"

"Do you really think my Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan can be bullied by anyone?"

As he spoke, Yu Yuanzhen slammed his hand on the table. His aura burst forth, and he was furious.

"And what about Ning Xuan?"

"Your cultivation didn't advance for more than ten years, yet my niece stayed by your side without ever abandoning you. If she'd been any other woman, she would have left long ago. How would you ever have been in a position to propose breaking off the engagement?"

"Now that his cultivation has improved a little, he dares to make a scene in my Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. He has no respect for his elders and is arrogant and vicious. He even crippled the leg of his future father-in-law. Your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has truly gone too far."

"This engagement must be broken off!"

"Even if you won't break it off, my Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan will. We wouldn't dare take in a son-in-law who is so narrow-minded and ill-bred."

"But the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect must make a public announcement to the continent that you were in the wrong first and that your conduct was lacking. As for the betrothal gifts, not only will we not return them, but you, as the party at fault, must also provide compensation."

As Yu Yuanzhen delivered this speech, he spoke with force and righteousness, as though his chest were filled with a raging inferno.

But for all he said, he meant only one thing.

The engagement could be broken off!

But not only would the betrothal gifts not be returned, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would also have to pay compensation.

How utterly shameless.

Ning Xuan was so angry he laughed.

"The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan really thinks a lot of itself."

His gaze was cold as he looked at Liu Erlong's face, without a trace of feeling.

"I'm the one at fault?"

"That's what you told them?"

"Heh."

He had once been deeply infatuated with that face.

But not anymore!

Now, just seeing that face filled him with overwhelming disgust.

He couldn't help remembering everything he had seen and heard when he used the Mirror Image Skill.

Disgusting!!!

Filthy!!!

How despicable!!!

"Ning Xuan, what do you mean by this?"

"Wasn't it you who was making trouble for no reason? Or are you trying to say everything is my fault?"

Liu Erlong took a deep breath, fury filling her eyes.

She had clearly told Ning Xuan in advance that she would only go to Sunset Forest after getting his approval.

And now, over such a trivial matter, he was willing to-

Breaking off the engagement wasn't enough. He'd even stirred things up until they'd reached this utterly unmanageable point.

"Ning Xuan, you've truly disappointed me."

Liu Erlong's voice was heavy.

She sounded as though Ning Xuan had truly disappointed and deeply hurt her.

"That's right."

Yu Yuanzhen looked at Ning Xuan coldly.

"I always thought that a child raised by Sect Master Ning would be as broad-minded as he is. That was why I felt safe entrusting Erlong to you."

"But you've truly disappointed us."

"You know perfectly well that nothing could ever happen between Erlong and my foolish son. But now you can't even tolerate her cousin?"

"Ning Xuan, you really are narrow-minded."
