Chapter 704 Breaking off the Engagement Once Again
“You just wait and see! I will kill you!”
Yan Zicheng got up and then ran out of the room in a panic after giving his threat. He did not even have the guts to look back.
The others also realized that it was not appropriate for them to stay here since Yan Zicheng had left. So they all left within two minutes. There were only Qin Haodong and Zhao Qingwu standing on the vast lawn.
They looked at each other affectionately. After a while, Qin Haodong said, “How do you feel? I didn’t let you down, did I?”
Zhao Qingwu bit her red lips gently and said bitterly, “I hate you!”
Qin Haodong was astonished, “Why? What have I done?”
“Why didn’t you show up earlier? I had been living alone for the past years and was engaged to Yan Zicheng.”
Qin Haodong held her slender waist and said, “But now I’m here! It’s not too late to be with you.”
“Let’s have one more dance. I’ll tell grandpa later that I won’t marry anyone but you!”
Then Zhao Qingwu and Qin Haodong danced together again.
Let’s see what’s going on in Yan Feifei’s room.
Yan Feifei slowly opened her eyes in disappointment. She had been confident this time about breaking through the Holy Stage bottleneck, but she still failed.
Why? Why couldn’t she make it?
She was a strong woman and had always been eager to prove herself by breaking through the bottleneck of the Holy Stage.
But suddenly she stiffened at the sight of the two bottles of pills in front of her. Then she noticed the note under the bottle.
“It’s him. Is he here?”
Yan Feifei grabbed the note and checked the handwriting. It was him! He came here to see her! Yan Feifei trembled with great excitement.
After coming back from Shenbao Mountain, she had been looking for the man and tried to figure out who he was. But she did not have much information and all she had were a few Energy-gathering Pills. She could not find anything useful for the past months.
When she saw the signature at the bottom of the page, she blushed and a smile appeared on her beautiful face, “You’re such a considerate man. Please show up and marry me. I’ve been waiting for you for so long.”
Why didn’t she see him since he had been here? Why didn’t he take her away with him?
So many thoughts whirled around in her mind and Yan Feifei sat in a daze for a long time. Then she checked the contents carefully. She was astonished when she saw the problems put forward by Qin Haodong which prevented her from breaking through the bottleneck.
What level was he at? Yan Feifei remembered that he was not a quarter as strong as her when they were in Shenbao Mountain, which was why she could overwhelm him.
But now based on his understanding of breaking through the bottleneck, he must be at a higher level than she was. Did he pass the threshold, or was he a member of some big sect? Maybe his Seniors had similar experiences of breaking through to the Saint Realm.
“It must be so. He must belong to some mysterious sect and it was not convenient for him to meet me for some special reasons.”
Yan Feifei confirmed her idea and murmured, “Wait for me. I’ll find you after breaking through the bottleneck.”
Then she took all the pills and tried to break through the bottleneck of the Holy Stage once again.
After taking the pills, Yan Feifei felt the Genuine Qi in her dantian immediately rushing to the other parts of her body as if it had exploded within her.
She calmed down and guided her Genuine Qi to break through the bottleneck of the Holy Stage. At the same time, she corrected several mistakes she had made before, according to the instructions from Qin Haodong.
An hour later, the winds suddenly howled around the manor of the Yan family and the Qi of Heaven and Earth became violent. Although it was not as powerful as what had happened in Shenbao Mountain, those onlookers were still terrified!
Besides, unlike Shenbao Mountain, which was located in a remote area, the Yan Family home was located at the outskirts of the capital and the unusual scene immediately caused a sensation in the entire city. The ninth-level grand masters of all the other six great families were alarmed and immediately rushed to the Yan Family home.
Yan Fengwu jumped up with great excitement. The Yan family was finally going to have the first Sage-level master in the capital.
To prevent anyone from interfering with Yan Feifei’s cultivation, all the masters of the Yan family worked together to keep the onlookers away from the gate.
The onlookers gathered around and were surprised by the strange scene in the manor of the Yan family. Yan Feifei, the so-called top master in the capital, might become a saint today.
Half an hour later, they heard a loud bang in the house. The two-story villa where Yan Feifei lived suddenly collapsed and was then wiped out by the violent Qi of Heaven and Earth. After a while, the wind and clouds disappeared and calm returned to the place.
A beautiful girl appeared and rose in the air, as if she was stepping on a flight of stairs. She glanced around the crowd and said coldly, “I’ve successfully reached the saint stage. Please go back. Don’t stay here.”
When she finished speaking, a huge momentum burst from her body. Most of those present were ninth-level grand masters, but they were still overwhelmed and staggered back.
Fortunately, she just wanted to intimidate the crowd. The momentum disappeared in an instant and then she also vanished from sight.
The crowd came to their senses and then realized what had happened. Yan Feifei had reached the saint stage and the Yan family was going to rise up and would soon become the No.1 family in the capital.
After making sure that Yan Feifei had successfully broken through the bottleneck of the Saint Realm, the crowd immediately went back to report to their families. All of a sudden, the entire city was in chaos.
It was said that Qin Zongheng had reached the Saint Realm, but he just showed up for a moment and then disappeared. However, all of them had seen Yan Feifei succeed in person.
Compared with those ninth-level grand masters of the Tang Sect, the Saints of the Yan Family were naturally more terrifying. They were nothing compared to these powerful Saints.
Therefore, the situation in the capital completely changed the moment Yan Feifei reached the Holy Stage.
“No wonder the Yan family did not go to the Tang Sect to show their goodwill toward Qin Haodong. They’re confident that Yan Feifei will definitely make it!”
“Well, I heard that Qin Haodong took Yan Zicheng’s fiancee away. The Yan family will not let him off…”
“The world has changed. In the future, the Yan family will rule the capital. There will be no seven big families and the Yan family will be our Boss…”
All the upper-class aristocratic families in the capital were in a panic and tried to find a way out of the dilemma for their families.
In the Zhao family, Zhao Qingwu stood in front of Zhao Cangqiong and said shyly, “Grandpa, I love Haodong. I want to marry him and he’s also willing to marry me.”
Hearing her words, Zhao Cangqiong laughed pleasantly and said, “Well-done, our Zhao Family will count on you…”
But before he even finished speaking, Zhao Canghai and Zhao Cangtian rushed in from outside and said, “Master, you will not believe it! Yan Feifei broke through the bottleneck and became the first Saint of the seven major families in the capital.”
It was said that Qin Zongheng was at the Saint Stage, but they only had a glimpse at him and did not get the final confirmation. So Zhao Cangtian did not take him into consideration at this moment.
“What?”
Zhao Cangqiong was shocked and the teacup fell to the ground and smashed into pieces.
He had been trying to please Qin Haodong and even broke the marriage contract with the Yan family, but he did not expect that the situation would change so drastically. The Yan family had a saint. This happened so fast and it was beyond his expectation.
He had thought that the Yan family could get angry, but they could do nothing to the Zhao family because they were well-matched in strength. That was the reason why he dared to break the contract.
But now the whole situation had changed. It would be quite easy for the Yan family to destroy the Zhao family since they had a saint now.
He composed himself and said to the two, “Are you sure that Yan Feifei is now at the Saint Stage? Did you see it with your own eyes?”
Zhao Canghai said, “Yes, we saw the whole process. Yan Feifei displayed the unique skills of a Saint and also intimidated us with her great pressure. I’m sure that Yan Feifei is a real Saint. She’s so strong.”
He was still frightened at the thought of the great power Yan Feifei had just displayed.
After confirming the news, Zhao Cangtian collapsed on the sofa in desperation. After a moment of silence, he said to the two Elders, “We just canceled the marriage contract with the Yan family and now they have a saint. What should we do?”
Zhao Cangtian said, “We can do nothing but cancel the marriage with the Tang Sect now. And then we’ll send Qingwu to the Yan family and await their punishment.
“I hope that they can let us go for the sake of the marriage alliance. Otherwise, our Zhao Family will be finished this time.”
Zhao Canghai said, “Yes, we do not have the ability to resist the saint.”
Hearing that they were going to send her to the Yan family for the marriage alliance, Zhao Qingwu was in a panic and protested, “No, I won’t get married to anyone in the Yan family this time.”
Zhao Cangtian said in a cold voice, “Are you going to watch us being destroyed by the Yan family?”
Zhao Canghai sighed and said, “Girl, we do care about how you feel, but things are quite different now. We will be finished this time if the Yan family does not forgive us.”
“No, I don’t care.” Zhao Qingwu shouted crazily, “Haodong and I love each other. I won’t marry anyone but him.
“I just want him!”
Zhao Cangtian snorted coldly, “You don’t know how terrible a Saint is. If you offend the Yan family, I’m afraid that the Tang Sect will be wiped out tomorrow. Who are you going to marry then?”
Zhao Cangqiong also came to his senses. After a moment of hesitation, he said, “That’s the only thing we can do. I’m going to break off the engagement with the Tang Sect now.”
“No, you can’t do that. I will marry no one but Qin Haodong, whether I’m dead or alive. I will never get married again in my life.”
Zhao Cangqiong’s face clouded, “That’s a family issue and how can I let you, a girl, determine the destiny of the entire family?”
Then he asked two servants to come over, “Take your young lady to her room and she’s not allowed to leave her room without my permission.”
“Grandpa, please don’t do that…”
Zhao Qingwu still wanted to say something, but Zhao Cangqiong had already strode out of the living room. He hurried to the Tang Sect with a few family members.
He wanted to break off the engagement with the Tang Sect as soon as possible to make his stand clear and then gain the forgiveness of the Yan family.
Wei Junzheng had been in a good mood for the past few days. His granddaughter, Yanran, had successfully moved into the Tang Sect. She would definitely be married to Qin Haodong.
But he was astonished at the news that Yan Feifei had reached the Holy Stage.
In particular, Wei Junkuo reported that Qin Haodong had just beaten up Yan Zicheng at No. 5 Mansion and taken Zhao Qingwu away. This young man must have a big feud with the Yan family. Wei Junce was frozen in great terror.
It seemed that the Tang Sect was doomed this time. Qin Haodong would definitely be killed by the angry Saint.
What he needed to do now was to stay away from the Tang Sect to avoid being punished by the Yan family.
After a moment’s hesitation, he immediately said to his family, “Hurry up and prepare a car for me. I’m going to cancel the engagement and bring Yanran back.”
