As for causing the Yunlan Sect to offend the Xiao family and causing the relationship between the Nalan family and the Xiao family to break down, Yun Yun didn't think about it at all. In Yun Yun's view, these were not as important as making her apprentice's mind understand.
Although Nalan Yanran has been recognized by the Gate of Life and Death, there is no guarantee that she will be able to walk out of it alive. Yun Yun herself has also passed through the Gate of Life and Death and knows how dangerous it is. If Nalan Yanran does not have a firm heart, there is a high possibility that she will lose her life.
"Patriarch Xiao, I know this request is a bit unreasonable, so I brought some gifts with me this time." Yun Yun's voice was still so calm, as if breaking off the engagement was just an ordinary matter. She raised her jade hand gently, and several jade boxes of different colors were placed on the table.
"I brought two fourth-grade pills, namely the Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pill and the Qi Gathering Powder, two fifth-grade pills, namely the Wind Travel Pill and the Recovery Pill, a sixth-grade Clear Light Longevity Pill, and a set of wind-attributed Xuan-level advanced martial arts as an apology for breaking off the engagement."
As Yun Yun was speaking, the Yunlan Sect's deacon who was sitting next to her carefully opened the box. Suddenly, several strange fragrances filled the hall, and everyone who smelled them felt refreshed.
After hearing Yun Yun's conditions, the people from the Xiao family in the hall couldn't help but breathe faster.
After the box was opened and they saw that the items inside were exactly as Yun Yun described, they felt even more dry in the mouth.
By providing these resources, the Yunlan Sect has invested a huge amount of money and has no intention of completely breaking off with the Xiao family.
Xiao Ling's talent is obvious to all, and he will definitely not be limited to this small Jia Ma Empire in the future. Even if we can't make friends, we can't make enemies, otherwise when Xiao Ling grows up, Yun Lan Sect will have a hard time.
Two fourth-grade medicinal pills and one Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pill can help a Da Dou Shi improve his cultivation by One Star. The Qi Gathering Powder can allow a person with the Ninth Level Of Dou Zhi Qi to break through to the level of a Dou Zhe. Both can be listed as the best of the fourth-grade medicinal pills.
There are also two fifth-grade pills, which can be taken when encountering danger outside to save your life.
As for the sixth-grade Clear Light Longevity Pill, only two people in the Jia Ma Empire who can refine it. Since this pill was produced by the Yunlan Sect, it must have been refined by the guest elder Gu He.
Pills that can increase lifespan are extremely precious items to any force.
In addition, Yun Yun, the leader of the Yunlan Sect, came personally to offer apology, so Xiao Zhan and his son could save face and would not suffer any loss of dignity.
After all, they have already made enough gestures, and apart from saying publicly that there is something wrong with this matter, there is nothing for others to complain about.
Even if other forces in the imperial capital knew about these things, they would not feel that the Xiao family was insulted.
After showing these items, Yun Yun sat down and said, "Patriarch Xiao, these are our Yunlan Sect's apology to Xiao Yan. Please consider canceling the engagement."
After Yun Yun finished speaking, the hall fell into silence, and everyone turned their eyes to Xiao Zhan and Xiao Yan. Whether to cancel the engagement or not, it all depends on the decision of the parties involved.
At this moment, Xiao Zhan and Xiao Yan's faces were not looking good. Even if Yun Yun's reasons were sufficient and the apology was valuable, breaking off the engagement was still an extremely unpleasant thing for Xiao Zhan and his son.
Moreover, Xiao Yan's vision is no longer limited to the Jia Ma Empire. He is practicing the intermediate earth-level skills. In the future, he can go to Canaan Academy to study alchemy. His cousin has said that with his soul talent, he has the potential to become an eighth-grade alchemist. These pills that are extremely precious in the eyes of others are not very attractive to Xiao Yan.
At this time, Zi Yan's voice reached Xiao Yan's ears, "Hey, do you need my help to drive these people away?"
Turning around, Xiao Yan saw Zi Yan with a playful look on her face. He scratched his head and said, "No need. I'll handle this matter myself."
Xiao Yan nodded to Xiao Zhan first, then stood up under the gaze of everyone, looking in the direction of Yun Yun and Nalan Yanran, "Sect Master Yun, you should take these pills back."
Yun Yun, who was sitting opposite Xiao Yan, frowned slightly. Nalan Yanran thought that Xiao Yan was not going to cancel the engagement, and a look of anger appeared on her face.
Before the other party could speak, Xiao Yan took a deep breath and asked calmly, "Miss Nalan, I would like to ask, has Master Nalan agreed to your decision to break off the engagement today?"
Standing up, staring at the young man who was supposed to be her husband, Nalan Yanran said in a calm and gentle tone: "Grandpa never agreed, but this is my business, and it has nothing to do with him."
"Since it wasn't Mr. Nalan who asked to cancel the engagement, then it was your own decision. I guess you don't like me as your fiancé." Xiao Yan asked Nalan Yanran with a calm expression.
Hearing Xiao Yan's question, Nalan Yanran answered with a firm look in her eyes: "I, Nalan Yanran, will never marry a man I don't know, and I will never let my marriage become a bargaining chip for family power. I, Nalan Yanran, decide my own fate, and I decide who to marry!"
Xiao Yan smiled faintly, clapped his hands, and said, "You decide your own destiny. That's right. I, Xiao Yan, also agree that this marriage should be cancelled."
Xiao Yan remained calm as he looked at his "fiancée" and said slowly, "But, you asked my father to cancel the engagement in public. As the head of the clan, my father would lose face and become a laughing stock. He would lose all his dignity. And I, Xiao Yan, would also be laughed at in the imperial capital."
Xiao Yan changed the subject, his eyes became sharp, "I, Xiao Yan, am not an unreasonable person. You and I are the same age, and both of us are Three-Star Dou Zhe. If you can defeat me, I will agree to cancel the engagement and will not accept any compensation. If you lose to me, I will personally go to the Nalan Mansion and divorce you, Nalan Yanran, in public."
He didn't care about the engagement. But if the engagement made by both parties today could be cancelled, it would be like leaving an indelible stain on his life. For such a small profit, he, Xiao Yan, could not bear to be cancelled in public by someone else.
As soon as Xiao Yan's words came out, everyone in the audience was shocked. No one had expected that Xiao Yan would actually agree to cancel the engagement with Nalan Yanran and give up those precious resources just to fight for his dignity.
When Nalan Yanran heard Xiao Yan's words, she smiled faintly and looked at Xiao Yan in a more favorable light. "Are you serious?"
Yun Yun looked at the young man in front of her. Her originally calm face finally showed some ripples, but she still spoke in a calm tone: "Are you sure, Xiao Yan? If you lose, not only will you have to cancel the marriage, but we will also take back these pills and skills."
Although Yun Yun said this, she was still prepared to wait until Xiao Yan lost to Nalan Yanran before keeping these resources.
