The Letter of Divorce Shocks Everyone, a Sword Immortal Descends into the Mortal World

Although Gu Xiaoya's arrival had not stirred the four corners like Gu Xuanjin's,

she had not made her maids restrain their presence either.

Several experts with profound cultivation realms had suddenly appeared in the small Linfeng City.

It was like a long-calm sea suddenly erupting in towering waves.

What was more, they had headed straight for the Xiao Clan as soon as they arrived, looking ready for a fight.

Anyone who cared to ask around could guess why they had come to the Xiao Clan.

Thus, word that the Xiao Clan's engagement was being broken off had already spread.

Many people were watching for a laugh.

Several other Lineages in the city had even

prepared to strike at the Xiao Clan as soon as Gu Xiaoya left.

Whether they could curry favor with the Gu Clan was unimportant.

What mattered was that they had held back from attacking the Xiao Clan before because they feared the Gu Clan.

But now that the Gu Clan had come to break off the engagement, they naturally no longer had to look over their shoulders.

When Xiao Han came to the reception hall from the rear courtyard,

several servants told him what was happening outside.

Xiao Han could not help but fly into a rage.

So when he looked at the beautiful young woman in the hall, there was not a trace of warmth in his voice.

Gu Xiaoya's delicate brows knitted slightly.

She had not expected things to turn out this way; she had only come to end the engagement.

After a moment's silence,

she pointed to the storage ring in front of Xiao Zhenyu.

"I only brought this storage ring today.

"What's inside is enough for you to use for a while.

"After I return,

"I'll have someone compensate you with at least five times the cultivation resources in this storage ring."

These words delighted the Xiao Clan elders.

Although it was somewhat humiliating for the woman's side to come and break off the engagement,

they could bear the humiliation.

With so many resources, their Xiao Clan could surely reach a higher level in the future!

Xiao Han said angrily, "I know your Gu Clan has no shortage of resources. I don't care for them!"

As he spoke,

Xiao Han took out a sheet of white paper.

He bit his fingertip and used his blood to write a large character for "divorce" on it!

"Don't you want to end the engagement?

"I'll grant your wish!

"But it isn't your Gu Clan breaking off the engagement with me, Xiao Han. It's me, Xiao Han... divorcing you!"

Xiao Han's words were like a thunderclap from a clear sky!

The entire reception hall fell silent in an instant; a pin could have been heard dropping!

"What did you say?!"

Gu Xiaoya's heart jolted, and she immediately glared and gritted her teeth.

The eyes of the maids behind her swirled with surging killing intent.

Xiao Zhenyu was also shocked.

He had not expected his son to take such a hard line.

Sensing that cold, overwhelming killing intent,

the first elder's face twitched.

He immediately shouted sternly:

"Enough! Xiao Han, shut your mouth at once! Do you want to doom our Xiao Clan beyond redemption?"

The other elders also urged Xiao Han to apologize at once.

But Xiao Han paid them no heed.

He grew more and more worked up, as if he had released all the gloom in his heart from the past few years.

He placed the white paper with its bloody character before Gu Xiaoya.

"I said, today, I, Xiao Han, am divorcing you!"

"You're the Gu Clan's divine maiden. Right now, you truly are beyond my reach."

"But no one can say what the future holds!"

"Perhaps one day, I, Xiao Han, will turn things around and ascend to the peak!"

When he finished,

Xiao Han felt a sense of ease in body and mind. His thoughts were clear, and he felt an unprecedented comfort and clarity throughout his body.

Seeing the young man so confident and full of vigor,

Xiao Xueying's eyes flickered slightly, and the corners of her lips curved up.

She knew that the high-spirited Brother Xiao Han of old had returned!

Looking at the black-clad young man,

even Gu Xiaoya was momentarily dazed.

But the humiliation of being divorced quickly brought her back to her senses.

Gu Xiaoya took the divorce letter and reduced it to scraps that filled the air in an instant.

She was just about to have someone teach the Xiao Clan a lesson

when a soul-shaking dragon roar suddenly rang out from outside.

Nine enormous, ferocious black dragons with vast, weighty presences

appeared in the sky, pulling a magnificent palace wreathed in divine radiance.

Like a black cloud blotting out the sun,

they cast more than half of Linfeng City into darkness.

A road as white as jade stretched down from above.

A young man in white-and-gold brocade robes, a mysterious longsword on his back, slowly strolled down it.

The young man was extraordinarily handsome.

His bearing was domineering and sharp, his edge fully exposed,

Sword Qi crisscrossed around him, immortal radiance flowed, and his pressure was unbearably heavy!

His status was exalted, like that of a young sword immortal high above the world!

A heroic-looking young man with a resolute face respectfully followed beside him.

And behind them

were more than a hundred soldiers in black armor, their presences fierce and battle-hardened.

The pressure of the group was vast and deep as an abyss.

It made everyone in Linfeng City feel an inexplicable weight in their hearts and an extreme sense of suffocation.

Walking down the road radiant with immortal light,

Gu Xuanjin glanced at Xiao Han.

The ancient ring on his hand made a thoughtful look flash through Gu Xuanjin's eyes.

That presumably was the ring in which the remnant soul of a peak expert lay dormant.

Under Gu Xuanjin's scrutiny,

Xiao Han felt immense pressure from that gaze, sharp as a sword.

His expression could not help but turn extremely grave.

Gu Xiaoya, meanwhile, felt a little happy when she saw the sword-bearing young man.

She came up to him and smiled sweetly.

"Cousin, what brings you here?"

Gu Xuanjin smiled faintly.

"I heard you were here. I happened to be venturing out into the world, so I came to see you."

"However,

"the Xiao Clan actually dared to insult you. They clearly have no regard for our Gu Clan!

"I don't think there's any need for them to exist anymore."

Gu Xuanjin waved his hand slightly.

The more than a hundred Divine Martial Guards behind him surrounded the entire Xiao Clan.

This sudden turn of events made the faces of everyone in the Xiao Clan change.

Enveloped by the cold shadow of death, they panicked like ants on a hot pan.

A trace of conflict flashed across Gu Xiaoya's face.

She did not particularly want to kill anyone, but Gu Xuanjin was clearly standing up for her, so she could hardly say much.

Just then,

Xiao Han stepped forward.

He said coldly:

"Let the one who did it answer for it!

"I, Xiao Han, was the one who insulted your Gu Clan. It has nothing to do with anyone else!"

Seeing that Xiao Xueying also wanted to step forward,

Uncle Chen, who was in the void, hurriedly sent her a voice transmission to dissuade her:

"Miss! We can't wade into these muddy waters!"

"That sword-bearing young man is Gu Xuanjin!

"He is the divine son with the greatest talent in the Gu Clan's history, its sole taboo!

"He possesses the Supreme Sword Bone and divine mastery of the sword.

"He is a peerless prodigy who truly deserves the title of young sword immortal!"

"He represents the entire Gu Clan!"

But Xiao Xueying ignored Uncle Chen's warning and stepped forward alongside Xiao Han.

Only when she faced Gu Xuanjin directly

did Xiao Xueying understand what a true young sword immortal was.

His surging, boundless sword intent seemed to stand above heaven, earth, and all things.

Its extreme sharpness made her feel as though her skin were being scraped raw!

It was as though a towering mountain pressed down on her heart, unbearably heavy.

Though both were peerless heavenly talents, she and Gu Xuanjin were like a speck of dust and the blazing sun.

Xiao Xueying said softly, "It was only a small quarrel. Why must you take it to heart, Divine Son?"

"A quarrel?

"If you disregard our Gu Clan, you must be prepared to pay the price!"

Gu Xuanjin looked calmly at the green-clad young woman, whose expression showed some indignation.

In the void beside her,

a tall figure entirely shrouded in black robes appeared.

He removed his black hood, revealing a weathered, sallow face.

Then he bowed respectfully.

"Liang Chen, the Su Lineage's fourth Attendant, greets the Gu Clan's divine son!"

"Please forgive any offense the young lady has just given you, Divine Son!

"After we return, the Su Lineage will naturally offer generous gifts in apology."
