HISS!

These are all…engagement gifts?


The Sage Sect really has lived up to its reputation. Such a big dowry is really amazing.


Among these, there is one Middle-Grade Celestial Artifact and more than ten Low-Grade Celestial Artifacts.


Look, these Low-Grade Celestial Artifacts are all Heaven Fire Maple Leaves. They actually consider such precious medicinal herbs as Low-Grade Celestial Artifacts and are just using them as decorative embellishments.




That’s too luxurious!


What is this, have you seen what’s in here beside the Celestial Artifacts?


It’s Jiuxuan Ice Wood, Leaving Fire Gold, Taixuan Real Steel…they are all top-quality refined materials.


There are also various kinds of Holy Herbs and elixirs… Hey, wait, is that gray-colored Holy Herb…a Starry Sky Flaming Blossom?


What? Is it really a Starry Sky Flaming Blossom?


Oh my God, that’s grown from the advanced Star Miscanthus, and it needs 100,000 years before it can be gathered.


In the entire Heaven Continent, there are no more than 100 of such Starry Sky Flaming Blossoms, and the Sage Sect actually gave one stalk as a gift.


Sure enough, only the Sage Sect would be so generous.

Outside the abode, many disciples were standing around, exclaiming.
Most of these people had come from various large and small forces from horizons far and wide, but even they were shocked by these engagement gifts. It was evident that the gifts that’d been given by the Sage Sect were indeed very precious.


Jiang Hongyan looked completely indifferent, staring blankly into space as she ignored the engagement gifts.
But when she heard the voices of the crowd, her beautiful eyes flickered slightly to look at the pile of engagement gifts, and her eyes fell on a Holy Herb. It was the Starry Sky Flaming Blossom: gathered from the advanced Star Miscanthus that had been growing for 100,000 years.
The corner of Jiang Hongyan’s mouth raised slightly. What she cared about was not how precious the Starry Sky Flaming Blossom was, but that the stalk of this Holy Herb from the advanced Star Miscanthus had reminded her of Xu Que.
She remembered that year, in the Ancient Tianxiang Trial Examination, when he’d been the guy who’d burned hundreds of stalks of Star Miscanthus.

Hongyan, are you satisfied with this dowry? It’s just a small token of my regard. I’ll definitely be able to give you more precious things in the future.
Ming Yixuan saw Jiang Hongyan’s gaze and expression and was immediately overjoyed, thinking that these engagement gifts had satisfied Jiang Hongyan.
In fact, before he had even taken out the engagement gifts, he’d already been very confident about this. After all, these gifts were so precious, who wouldn’t be touched by them.
However, moments after looking at the Starry Sky Flaming Blossom, Jiang Hongyan looked away and didn’t even glance at the other things in the dowry.
Ming Yixuan’s words were also ignored by her.
From coming out of her abode until now, other than responding to Dean Li, she’d had not even said half a word or sentence to Ming Yixuan.

Hongyan, this is a token from Young Master Ming and the Sage Sect. Can you accept it?
At this moment, Dean Li seemed to sense that the atmosphere wasn’t right, and he coughed to remind her.



No need.
Jiang Hongyan shook her head slightly, her tone indifferent.
She looked up at the sky, as if thinking about something, and continued.
I should leave.


She should leave?

Everyone in the audience was stunned.
Ming Yixuan’s face darkened, and an ugly expression appeared on his face.
Dean Li, who’d already expected that this would happen, looked at both of them.
Then Dean Li opened his mouth again and, smiling bitterly, said,
Hongyan, this marriage has been arranged by my ancestors at the Heaven Palace Academy and the Sage Sect. There are many things that you don’t know about yet, but you still have to accept the engagement gifts first. Regarding the other matters, we will let you know later bit by bit.


I already told you that my cultivation companion is Xu Que.
Jiang Hongyan frowned slightly.

Of course we know this, but, unfortunately, your cultivation companion is probably dead. So now you are free. It’s rare that the Sage Sect is so gracious and doesn’t care about your past. You should be grateful,
Dean Li said.
Jiang Hongyan heard his words, and her expression suddenly changed.
What did you say?



Dean Li shook his head.
In the past few years, you’ve been in retreat, but a lot of things have happened in the outside world. Your cultivation companion, Xu Que, has already appeared in the Heaven Continent.


He is here?
Jiang Hongyan was stunned.
Originally, after her retreat, she had planned to leave and attempt to return to the Four Great Continents and rescue Xu Que from the Celestial Burial Valley. She hadn’t expected that Xu Que had already come.
And from Dean Li’s tone, it’s wasn’t hard to tell that he’d already caused a lot of trouble.

Hongyan, you may not know, but Xu Que and his father are both morally corrupt people. They have been swindling and cheating all over the place, especially Xu Que’s father, who once lied to the head of our Heaven Palace Academy, killed more than half of the Sage Sect’s disciples, and even started a deadly feud with the Divine Farmer Clan. Now Xu Que’s father has disappeared without a word, but Xu Que has appeared in Tian Sha City. As far as I know, there are several Celestial Kings from the Divine Farmer Clan, as well as other powerful Celestial Kings, who all arrived in Tian Sha City a few days ago to take care of this problem,
said Dean Li.
Jiang Hongyan frowned.

Ancestors at the Celestial King level?


When had Celestial Kings appeared in the Heaven Continent, let alone so many Celestial Kings, who all wanted to deal with Xu Que?

Thinking of all this, she had some difficulty keeping calm.

I’m going to Tian Sha City,
Jiang Hongyan said immediately, as she immediately stepped down and boarded a teleportation device.


However, several figures suddenly appeared, blocking her path. It was Dean Li and his party.

No need. Even if you rush there now, it will be too late. In fact, our ancestors and several ancestors of the Sage Sect already set off a few days ago. If they reach there in time, they will definitely save Xu Que on your behalf.

Dean Li paused and continued,
Of course, this also depends on your decision. After all, Xu Que’s father has already caused huge trouble. If you get married to Young Master Ming, your identity will naturally be different, and several ancestors will help Xu Que on your behalf. But if you don’t agree to the engagement, once the word of this gets out, they will just stand by idly and not interfere.

As she heard these words, Jiang Honyan’s gaze turned icy.
It was clear to everyone that Dean Li was obviously trying to coerce Jiang Hongyan.
Originally, the audience listening had wondered why was there a need for so many powerful ancestors to go to Tian Sha City just to kill Xu Que.
Now, they’d understood that the ancestors of the Heaven Palace Academy and the Sage Sect had wanted to snatch Xu Que and capture him alive.
There was only one purpose. By controlling Xu Que’s life and death, they could coerce Jiang Hongyan to marry Ming Yixuan. If she didn’t agree, Xu Que would die.

Hongyan, rest assured. As long as you and I are married, I believe that the ancestors have the ability to keep Xu Que safe.
At this time, Ming Yixuan also spoke, pretending to be sincere.
In fact, this was the agreement that the Sage Sect had with the ancestors of the Heaven Palace Academy to get Jiang Hongyan to cooperate. If Jiang Hongyan refused to agree in the end, other than killing Xu Que, they would also use tough means to control Jiang Hongyan.
In any case, it was impossible for Jiang Hongyan to escape the outcome of this marriage. Of course, in order to ensure the smooth birth of the Divine Being of Heavenly Kismet & Taoist Fetus, they still hoped that Jiang Hongyan would cooperate, otherwise, they wouldn’t have done all these things trying to coerce her.
WHOOSH!
At this time, a majestic murderous spirit started to rise from Jiang Hongyan.
The cold, indifferent expression that flashed in her eyes was enough to confirm her answer.
She would not agree.
She also believed that Xu Que wouldn’t allow her to agree.

Hongyan, listen to us, this engagement will be the best outcome for you, and Xu Que will be safe and sound. At least it will ensure that he can continue to live.
Dean Li repeated. He knew that even if Jiang Hongyan didn’t agree, it would be difficult for her to escape her fate.

Yo! Who is talking about me? Do you think I need someone else to make sure whether or not I continue to live?

Just then, a frivolous soft voice came from behind everyone.
Everyone in the audience turned and looked around.
There was a young man in a black robe with a roguish smile on his face, a cigarette in his mouth, a big dog at one side, and an old man on his other side, who was walking over!
