"Okay, Yan Xiao, son of the Yan City Lord's family, my lady doesn't despise you for not being able to practice and being a waste, and she still maintains the engagement until now. Let's see what you do?
He is clearly engaged to my young lady, yet he still comes to Jiyue Tower to indulge in debauchery. Such behavior shows that he does not take my Jun family seriously.
If you don't give an explanation today, my Jun family will cancel the engagement with you!"
In the middle of the hall, Jin Lan stood in front of Yan Xiao with a look of contempt, as if cursing a heartless man, pointing at Yan Xiao's nose and listing his faults.
The atmosphere in the hall was a little subtle. Everyone was surprised by Jin Lan's words, but a moment later, there was a hint of sarcasm and ridicule in their eyes when they looked at the young man carrying the sword in the field.
Oh my God, what did they hear?
The good-for-nothing young man from the City Lord's Mansion is about to be broken off in public by his fiancée.
Chapter 22 This kid is so awesome!

Chapter 22 This kid is so awesome~!
Jin Lan asked Yan Xiao to give an explanation in public, but he naturally couldn't give one.
In fact, he came to Jiyue Tower not for sex, but for two things.
One is to temper the mind in the worldly affairs, and the other is to find the successor of the Way of Forgetfulness mentioned by his master, Red Dust Sword Master.
However, no matter which one it was, it was related to his biggest secret, the mysterious ancient sword on his back. He would naturally not tell this secret to anyone else.
Because the incident happened suddenly, he couldn't think of any suitable excuse and could only remain silent.
"Why are you silent? Are you feeling guilty? Humph, you've fallen to this point, but you're still thinking about having affairs with women. You're a hopeless person who doesn't seek to make progress. A waste is really a waste!"
As Jin Lan finished speaking, a burst of whispers suddenly rang out in the hall.
"This useless young master of the City Lord's Mansion is really a piece of shit. He was clearly engaged to Miss Jun, but he still came to Jiyue Tower to have fun. He was caught red-handed. How shameful!"
"He is a loser, who gave him the courage?"
“Although Yan Xiao is the son of the City Lord’s Mansion, the power of the Jun family in Yifeng City may not be much weaker than that of the City Lord’s Mansion. Yan Xiao should at least consider the Jun family’s face!”
"Waste is waste. Ever since Yan Xiao's cultivation level dropped and he could no longer practice, he has completely lost his fighting spirit and has been indulging himself in lust all day long. He is like a piece of mud that can't be helped!"
"Miss Jun is indeed a lady from a wealthy family. Even if Yan Xiao treated her like this, she just wanted an explanation. If my daughter was treated like this, I would probably ask her to cancel the engagement on the spot."
Seeing that public opinion was almost unanimously supporting her young lady, Jin Lan's lips curled up slightly.
As expected of a young lady, she actually thought of such a clever way to cancel the engagement. In this way, not only will outsiders not say a bad word about the young lady, but the people of the Yan family will also have nothing to say.
If Han Mo were here, he would definitely sigh: This method is much more clever than Naran Yanran. It's just a pity that this girl has some serious problems in other aspects.
“Since you have nothing to say, tomorrow, my Jun family will personally go to the City Lord’s Mansion to return the marriage certificate. From now on, you, Yan Xiao, will no longer have anything to do with my young lady.
Miss, let's go. Staying with this kind of trash for even a moment makes me sick!"
After saying that, Jin Lan left with Jun Ruohan, who had said nothing the whole time and didn't even look at Yan Xiao.
Only Yan Xiao was left there, secretly clenching his fists, feeling extremely humiliated.
Unlike Lin Feng, Yan Xiao is not the kind of stubborn male protagonist in a cool novel. After hearing what the other party said, he knew that the other party came prepared today.
Although he had disguised himself before coming to Jiyue Tower, the other party was able to recognize him easily, and even blocked him in public and questioned him.
What about Miss Jun not looking down on him for being a waste? That’s all bullshit!
Jun Ruohan must have wanted to break off the engagement a long time ago, and she even went so far as to follow him for a long time and humiliate him in public.
How can this be possible, Jun Ruohan? For the humiliation of breaking off the engagement today, I, Yan Xiao, will definitely repay you double in the future!
Yan Xiao swore secretly in his heart, but at this moment, a hoarse laugh suddenly came from the ancient sword:
“Haha, little Yan, why wait until another day? With me here, I can get you back today.”
"Oh? Master, what do you mean?"
Yan Xiao was immediately shocked when he heard this.
The saying "It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge" is just a nice saying when one is really helpless.
Who doesn't want to take revenge? If there is a grudge, it will be taken on the spot.
"I have found the person I am looking for this time. As long as you can meet her, with your status as the successor of the Red Dust Dao, you can easily gain her favor and goodwill. I even have a way to make her become your protector.
In this way, the people of the Jun family and the Yan family will no longer dare to underestimate you, and no one in the entire Yifeng City will dare to upset you. "
"who is it?"
Yan Xiao was slightly stunned and asked subconsciously.
"The talented lady of the imperial capital, and also the loveless saint of this generation - Shang Xiufang."
"It's actually her?"
The name Shang Xiufang is well-known to everyone, not only in Tianhai Province, but also in the entire Great Zhou Immortal Dynasty. Yan Xiao has naturally heard of her as well.
Needless to say, the other party's powerful Jindan stage cultivation is also a descendant of the five major holy places. His identity and background cannot be compared with the Jun family of Yifeng City.
If there was such a beautiful woman with profound cultivation and strong background who could become his protector...
"Young man Yan, next, you should let this little bitch from the Jun family see that some of the men she despises are favored by outstanding women."
That's true, and it really slapped my fiancée in the face, which was very refreshing, but...
"Master, you don't know that Shang Xiufang is not something that everyone can see whenever they want. It is said that she has been in Yifeng City for three days, but no one has seen her."
"I know, it's just a small test. The descendants of the Way of Oblivion are all like this. Don't worry, with me here, I will definitely help you pass her test smoothly."
The old woman's tone was conscientious, but it seemed as if she was telling Yan Xiao that there was nothing in this world that she, the Red Dust Sword Master, could not do.
After hearing the confident assurance from Master Gu Jian, Yan Xiao finally breathed a sigh of relief.
So, a quarter of an hour later, the confident Yan Xiao walked into Qinlezhai with his head held high.
This is a single-family building in the backyard of Jiyue Tower. It is also the place where Xiufang from the imperial capital sets questions to test the geniuses.
"Look, why is Yan Xiao here in Qinlezhai? What does he want to do?"
"This is where Xiufang and the others set questions to test everyone. Could he want to answer the questions as well?"
"Humph, this piece of trash is just wishful thinking."
"Hahaha, I'm dying of laughter. This is the best joke I've ever heard in my life."
As soon as Yan Xiao stepped into Qinlezhai, he was instantly recognized by the many geniuses from Yifeng City who were waiting there, and as expected, he was met with a wave of ridicule.
If Han Mo were here, he would definitely pinch his nose and sigh: This smell is too strong.
"Humph, you guys can be so proud now. When Xiufang and her friends meet me later, you'll be slapped in the face."
Yan Xiao snorted softly, as if he was disdainful of arguing with everyone.
However, although his voice was small, it was still heard by many people who were nearby.
"Did you hear what he said? He actually dreamed that Xiufang and the others would receive him. Hahahaha~"
"Puchi, trash is trash. A toad wants to eat swan meat. How can he not know his own limitations?"
There was a burst of laughter in the Qinlezhai, and the air was filled with joy.
Even a master and servant pair who were hiding in the corner, looking around as if looking for someone, were infected and couldn't help shaking their heads and smiling bitterly.
"Miss, this Yan Xiao is beyond help."
"kindness."
After achieving the goal of breaking off the engagement, Jun Ruohan did not leave Jiyue Tower. Instead, after hearing that Han Mo was coming, the master and servant quickly followed him.
However, after arriving at Qinlezhai, he did not see Han Mo.
Yan Xiao naturally noticed Jun Ruohan's presence and immediately looked at her with a look of resentment in his eyes:
"Jun Ruohan, just wait for me. It won't be long before you regret your rash action of breaking off the engagement today!"
However, Yan Xiao, who was full of confidence and was about to slap Jun Ruohan in the face, never dreamed that...
Not long after, Shang Xiufang's personal maid suddenly appeared on the rooftop balcony and announced something to everyone:
Xiufang was ill and refused to see anyone, even for the next few days until she returned to the imperial capital.
"How could this be?"
Yan Xiao roared, as if he fell from the clouds into the abyss.
"Why at this time? No, I won't give in!"
He naturally didn't know the reason why Shang Xiufang refused to see the guest...
"Damn it, damn it, things change over time, don't look down on the young and poor!"
Almost as if following Yan Xiao's humiliating and angry words, in the rooftop room, there was the woman who would be his future protector, and might even become his future Taoist partner.
After witnessing the straightforward... nature of a certain prince from the Yifeng Marquisate, they all gave a heartfelt compliment at the same time:
"Anthus~, this kid is a great man~"
At this moment, the room was like a hundred flowers in bloom, with the warm colors of spring.
At this moment, the young man downstairs is shouting "Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west", while the beautiful woman upstairs who may become the young man's future partner is in her boudoir shouting "Great".
Even the young man's fiancée, who had just broken off the engagement, was silently saying in her heart: "Prince Han, you are indeed the number one playboy, so great~"
How can I describe this scene with just one word: "amazing".

Chapter 23: To forget about love, one must first fall in love
2023-11-10
Time goes back half an hour ago.
In Qinlezhai, in a separate room on the rooftop, a beautiful master and servant were sitting together, chatting in low voices.
"Lady Saint, it's already the third day, and no one has been able to pass even one level of the test. Are you sure that the person you are looking for is really in this remote place?"
"It's not wrong. Master once went to the Holy Land of Heavenly Secrets to ask for a divination for me. The divination showed that the person who was destined to experience the tribulation for me was in Yifeng City, Tianhai Province. He was a person with great luck. If I choose the right person, I will benefit infinitely.
