"Mm?!"
Hearing Mo Wangchen's words, Jun Muqing immediately frowned. She hadn't expected that his reaction, upon hearing her intentions, would be different from what she imagined.
Not only her, even the people outside the door, including Mo Xiaotian on the main seat, were stunned.
Because in their impression, Mo Wangchen had never shown such a side, let alone speaking so reproachfully in front of a Spirit Transformation Realm expert!
"Did I hear that right? This worthless young master actually dares to speak to Jun Muqing like this?!"
"Truly arrogant, does he really think he's something special? He's nothing but a waste!"
After recovering from the shock, the people outside the door began to mock him again.
"I don't think I said anything wrong. Whether you are a waste or not, I believe your Mo Family knows better than me. No matter what, the marriage must be dissolved today!" Jun Muqing sneered, her eyes full of disdain as she looked at Mo Wangchen. "Any achievement I have made is not something a worthless young master like you could accomplish. We are destined to not be in the same world. To put it bluntly, you simply don't deserve me!"
After speaking, Jun Muqing turned her hand, and a Pill, surrounded by a faint glow, appeared on her delicate fingers. "This Pill is called the Gathering Martial Pill, reaching the third-grade level. Consuming it can double a person's strength, and slightly change their physique. Although it still can't let you reach the Vein Condensation Realm's cultivation, it is enough to give you the strength of a cultivator at the third level of the Vein Condensation Realm. Consider it compensation for breaking off the engagement."
"A third-grade Pill? Is it real?!"
"In Fangtian City, a third-grade Pill is already the highest level of Pill. Even Master Lin Qing, the Pavilion Master of the Alchemy Pavilion, may not be confident in successfully refining it..."
"This waste is really lucky to receive a third-grade Pill as compensation?"
Outdoors, the Mo Family members were shocked upon seeing the Gathering Martial Pill in Jun Muqing's hand. Some of the younger family members had eyes blazing with desire, eager to snatch the Pill away.
Amidst everyone's discussions, Mo Wangchen silently raised his hand and accepted the Pill.
Seeing his action, Jun Muqing's eyes were even more disdainful. Mo Xiaotian, behind her, also sighed. If his son obtained this Gathering Martial Pill and could gain the strength equivalent to the third level of the Vein Condensation Realm, it would be some comfort to him. However, in doing so, the news of the Mo Family being rejected in marriage was likely to become a laughingstock.
Crack!
However, just as everyone thought Mo Wangchen had accepted the dissolution of the engagement, a crisp sound echoed throughout the hall.
The next moment, they saw the Gathering Martial Pill in Mo Wangchen's hand had been crushed into powder.
"A third-grade Pill, you sure are generous..."
After crushing the Gathering Martial Pill, Mo Wangchen's face returned to calmness, a calmness that was a bit terrifying.
He looked at Jun Muqing. Her face, as if she were giving alms, made Mo Wangchen feel disgusted. He said coldly, "Unfortunately, I'm afraid I, Mo Wangchen, am not blessed to enjoy it..."
He sneered in his heart. In his past life, a third-grade Pill was something he would never have paid attention to, not to mention that now, with his past life's Alchemy Dao skill, he could refine one himself in no time.
Yet, in Jun Muqing's eyes, it was seen as charity and utterly laughable.
"I agree to break the engagement. You are right; in the future, we indeed will not be people of the same world!" Looking directly at Jun Muqing, who frowned slightly, Mo Wangchen spoke with an incredibly indifferent expression.
Now that he had inherited his previous life's memories, possessing extraordinary Alchemy Dao skill and the Heavenly Dao Body, his future achievements could never be rivaled by Jun Muqing.
As she said, they did not exist in the same world, because the heights he could reach in the future would be far beyond her reach!
"At least you have some self-awareness!" Jun Muqing snorted coldly. Although Mo Wangchen had crushed the Pill, making her look unpleasant, as long as he agreed to break off the engagement, everything could be discussed.
"This waste! He actually crushed the third-grade Pill!"
"What a pity! Such a pity! If you don't want it, give it to me! That is a third-grade Pill, something you can't buy even with all the money in the world..."
Outside the hall, many Mo Family youths felt a pang of regret, voicing their lament.
A third-grade Pill in Fangtian City, even Master Lin Qing, the Pavilion Master of the Alchemy Pavilion, had little chance of successfully refining it. Its value was evident.
At this moment, in the main seat of the conference hall, Mo Xiaotian looked at his son with deep gratification. The scene just now was enough to prove that Mo Wangchen was also someone with spirit!
"Let's go!" Jun Muqing withdrew her gaze from Mo Wangchen, turning to the few people seated behind her, speaking slightly respectfully.
These people were powerful cultivators who accompanied Jun Muqing. Though they hadn't released their auras, Mo Wangchen could vaguely sense that their strength was probably not below his father's!
Hearing Jun Muqing's words, the group nodded, then stood up and cupped their hands slightly toward Mo Xiaotian, saying faintly, "Farewell, Family Head Mo!"
"Not seeing you out!" Mo Xiaotian replied with cupped hands, though his tone was somewhat indifferent.
Mo Wangchen stood quietly until Jun Muqing and the others were about to step out of the hall's threshold. Only then did he glance sideways, suddenly saying, "Jun Muqing, I hope you won't regret today's actions, for I, Mo Wangchen, will reclaim my honor one day, wait and see..."
Hearing Mo Wangchen's words, Jun Muqing paused, but then her face broke into a cold smile, full of disdain, as if she had heard a joke.
Naturally, she would not regret it, nor would she believe that Mo Wangchen, a wastrel unable to condense a Spirit Vein, could do anything to her.
"Rest assured, we will indeed not be people of the same world in the future. But if you think you have the strength to reclaim your honor, I welcome you to Yun Chu Academy at any time!" Jun Muqing smiled coldly, saying which, she turned without looking back and left.
"Yun Chu Academy..."
Mo Wangchen whispered softly, "I will go!"
Until Jun Muqing and the others left completely, the Mo Family people outside the door exchanged glances. Since the good show was over, there was no point in staying there. Soon, the door to the conference hall, once crowded, was vacated as everyone gradually left.
"Chen'er..."
Mo Xiaotian stood up from the main seat. At this moment, the look in his eyes towards Mo Wangchen had long since changed. In the past, whenever they met, he was mostly stern and sighed often. But now, his eyes were full of gratification because Mo Xiaotian realized that his son seemed to have grown up...
