(Inside Nie Mengyao's palace)
She stood in the room, her gaze always fixed on the courtyard's entrance.
She was kneading her fingers with an expression of uneasiness.
Just a moment ago, she received the news of the Great Holy Sect's arrival.
Therefore, she immediately sent someone to summon Su Changyu over.
Although she didn't want to get married, she didn't want to offend the Su family like this.
After all, she still wanted to compete for the throne.
If she recklessly offended the Su family, the support from influential forces would waver.
Therefore, she planned to have a good talk with Su Changyu.
Anyway, they had only met once before. They weren’t fond of each other.
If she could explain it more clearly, perhaps Su Changyu would also think the same way.
Once the two parties have reached an agreement, neither would lose face.
Right?
"Mengyao, don't worry, I'll talk to him when he comes to say." Ye Yuan on the side comforted, "I won't let you marry someone you don't like!"
Although he didn't know who Nie Mengyao was engaged to. But whoever it was, he would disagree!
Nie Mengyao nodded gently, "Thank you, Brother Ye Yuan."
She could feel warmth and concern from Ye Yuan's words, something that was hard to come by in the Imperial family.
"But Brother Ye Yuan, it's better not to let others know about our relationship. What if he thinks I'm doing this because of you..." Nie Mengyao said, her cheeks blushing.
Indeed, a large part of her reason was because of Ye Yuan.
But Nie Mengyao felt it was also her choice to pursue happiness.
Even if there were no Ye Yuan, she would still do it.
"Okay, I'll step aside for now, but if you need anything, Mengyao, make sure to find me!" Ye Yuan said a few more words before heading to his residence.
"Ye Yuan, do you want to get involved in this matter?" Leng Yan's voice sounded.
"You’re also dependent on others now. Nie Mengyao's marriage engagement isn’t that simple. The marriage arrangements of prominent families aren't something you can influence, right?"
She couldn't understand why Ye Yuan was so eager to show off.
Although he had been like this before, and those problems were manageable.
But, look at the current situation.
The Imperial Family was full of experts everywhere, and even she had to act carefully.
In this situation, just protecting himself was good enough, yet he wanted to stand up for others.
"If there's another accident, what about the Nine Spirit Fire? Won't you return to the Great Holy Sect and settle the score? Aren't you going to find Mu Qingning?"
"Master, I know what you're talking about, but helping Mengyao is also helping myself. If she can't handle this matter well, how can I focus on seizing the Nine Spirit Fire?" Ye Yuan wasn't done yet.
He was helping Nie Mengyao because he didn't want her to marry into those huge families. He was increasingly displeased with the top families' heirs.
Why?
That Su Changyu, relying on the Su family background, acted arrogantly before him.
(On the other side)
A maid entered the courtyard.
Seeing that she was the only one, Nie Mengyao frowned, "Where is Su Changyu?"
The maid stammered, "Princess, he... said... said..."
"What did he say?"
"He said the Princess should come over by herself."
Nie Mengyao's eyebrows furrowed.
"He wants me to come over? It seems that after becoming the Holy Son, this guy doesn't put others in his eyes. He doesn't even think about where he is. He thinks highly of himself."
"Forget it, since he doesn't want to talk, don't blame me if he loses face when the time comes!"
Nie Mengyao shook her head in disappointment.
She originally planned to have a good talk with Su Changyu.
But now it seemed hopeless.
She had already planned it out.
"My Ancient Phoenix Technique is about to breakthrough to the ninth level. As long as I refine that drop of Ancient Fire Phoenix's essence blood, I will enter the Heavenly Profound Realm. By then..."
A hint of confidence flashed in Nie Mengyao's eyes.
The essence blood of the Ancient Fire Phoenix.
This was something she hadn't said to anyone.
It was her biggest trump card to turn the tide!
...
Nie Mengyao didn't go to see Su Changyu.
This also quickly made Su Changyu realize his speculation was correct.
At least there was a high probability.
"Although many plot changes have occurred, the result of this breaking of engagement is still likely to come."
Su Changyu pondered slightly.
"This is the Imperial Family. Though that woman is arrogant, she can't be dumb. If she wants to annul the engagement, she must have the power to do it."
"Then, the ceremony for the Crown Prince is her opportunity."
Su Changyu closed his eyes and began cultivating.
It didn’t matter if she was the princess or his fiancée.
If they came to provoke him, don't blame him for being ruthless.
It was only Nie Mengyao's matter; he didn't want to casually provoke enemies for himself.
Soon, a mysterious mark appeared on his body, and his aura resembled an abyss as frightening as the sea.
...
In a flash, two days passed.
During this period, no one troubled Su Changyu.
This surprised him a little.
As far as he knew, other sects were arriving one after another two days later, and having a good conversation with the Holy Son of the Absolute Beginning Sect.
Well, the origins of the Absolute Beginning Sect were similar to those of the Great Holy Sect, and both sides had been engaged in an open and secret rivalry for many years.
If someone was stirring up trouble this time, Su Changyu felt that it was this guy.
…
(Outside the Imperial Palace Hall)
At this time, at a thousand feet high, the 'Immortal Sacred Platform' was built by a certain emperor of the Imperial Family.
Here, the crown prince had to climb it on foot, ascend the path to the heavens, establish himself as the crown prince, and inherit the Imperial Family's dragon vein and fortune.
"This Immortal Sacred Platform is quite spectacular."
In the distance, the Absolute Beginning Sect's Holy Son Jin Yang raised his head and started it with his eyes sparkling like a blazing sun.
But soon, he laughed and said, "But the Imperial Family's situation hasn't been so pleasant recently. I heard that they were oppressed by the Soul Demon Sect the last time they visited the Imperial City. Despite killing many people, they were able to escape safely."
The relationship between the Absolute Beginning Sect and the Great Holy Sect wasn't good.
And Su Changyu, as the Great Holy Sect's Holy Son, had made a marriage engagement with the imperial family.
Wasn't this indirectly implying the relationship between the two?
Of course, this kind of relationship wasn't a big deal for them.
"Last time, the Soul Demon Sect experts were half-step Divine Profound Realm. It's inevitable for the Imperial Family to make a mistake."
Hearing the voice, Jin Yang chuckled, "Oh? Does Sister Yue think that the Imperial Family's position has fallen, then why did they fail to deal with a half-step Divine Profound Realm?"
"Holy Son Jin Yang shouldn't misinterpret it." Yue Shuixin from Yuehua Palace smiled lightly, and added: "I'm just discussing matters fairly. I don't want others to think that our righteous forces are inferior to those demonic sects."
"Sister Yue is right. The so-called demonic sect is naturally unreliable. That person back then just used secret techniques to hide, allowing him to escape by chance after a massive slaughter." A person immediately helped out.
"Yes, but the Soul Demon Sect has become more arrogant recently."
"It's rumored that their devil son..."
Looking at those who were trying to please Yue Shuixin, Jin Yang sneered.
These people, have they never seen a woman in their lives?
What's the use of being beautiful?
After taking off their clothes, what else could they offer?
As the Yuehua Palace was extremely powerful, he didn't want to provoke enemies for himself casually.
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded.
"Huh? That Great Holy Sect's Holy Son is here."
Everyone turned their gaze toward Su Changyu, who was walking toward them with Su Jiuling.
"You are here quite early, everyone." Su Changyu smiled faintly.
"You're the one who's late." Jin Yang sneered, "What? Were you having a private meeting with your fiancée?"
Su Changyu looked at Yue Shuixin and smiled, " Sister Yue, I haven't seen you in years. You're looking so beautiful."
Yue Shuixin nodded with a faint smile and replied, "Young Master Su, I heard that you ascended the Triple Third. Congratulations on becoming the Holy Son."
It had to be said that Yue Shuixin, this woman's temperament and appearance were both ten.
According to the novel plotline, there was no mention of the Imperial Family, or Su Changyu had forgotten about it.
Anyhow, he didn't like her.
But still, Su Changyu used the system to check and found that Yue Shuixin's Destiny Level was one star.
And Holy Son Jin Yang also has one star.
"It seems that heavenly pride from prominent backgrounds generally has destiny."
After all, even if they weren’t protagonists, they could still become big shots.
It was also not necessarily true that the higher the Destiny Level, the more outstanding the achievement.
Even if luck was lacking, it could be compensated for in other ways.
Su Changyu's indifference made Jin Yang upset, and he was about to say something.
But suddenly, a soft voice came.
"Everyone, welcome to the Crown Prince's ceremony."
Everyone's gaze shifted.
They saw Zhuge Wanqing coming gracefully with a few people.
Her long black hair, adorned with an ancient moon hairpin. Her skin was like jade, her eyes like stars.
Exquisite facial features were like sculptures, charming and enchanting.
Her temperament was gentle like water, resonating with every smile.
"Miss Zhuge."
Many people greeted her.
Zhuge Wanqing smiled in acknowledgment.
Nonetheless, her gaze was searching among the crowd, and in no time, she noticed Su Changyu, who stood out like a crane among chickens.
"That... is the Great Holy Sect's Holy Son, the fiancé of Mengyao? Such a handsome man." Zhuge Wanqing was slightly stunned and secretly amazed.
