Outside the hall was a welcoming square paved with white marble. On the square stood a wall that was three feet tall and twenty-four feet wide. It was extremely magnificent.
Beside the reflection wall, Zhao Mulan sized up Lin Qin. After a long while, she said,""I came here to…"
Lin Qin interrupted her and said,""I know."
"You know about it?" Zhao Mulan was a little surprised. In her impression, although the other party was not stupid, he was definitely not smart either. However, there seemed to be some changes this time.
"You can't be here to see me, right?" Lin Qin mocked himself.”
Zhao Mulan shook her head." Of course not. Whether you guessed it or not, I have to tell you personally that it's impossible between the two of us.”
"So you came to me to discuss the annulment of the engagement. After all, if I don't agree, it will be very troublesome for you to resolve the engagement alone. At the very least, you will face the dissuasion of many elders, especially when you can't face my mother. She treats you very well and is like a sister to your mother. If both of us agree, the elders won't be able to say anything.”
Zhao Mulan opened her mouth and realized that she didn't know what to say. This was different from what she had imagined. She had thought that the other party would be very angry. No matter what, it was humiliating to be called off by a woman. She had already prepared a way to deal with this, which was to let him know the difference in strength. The two of them were not worthy at all. If they continued to tangle, they would only be asking for humiliation. However, these methods had become useless, and she was somewhat caught off guard.
Taking a deep breath, Zhao Mulan realized that she had underestimated Lin Qin. At the same time, she felt a little aggrieved and said in a stiff tone,"That's right, but there's one thing you have to remember. Even if you don't agree, I will still cancel the engagement with you. Dragons don't live with snakes. You should have heard of the saying that we don't belong to the same world. I still have a long way to go in the future, and the gap between us will only get bigger.”
"Dragons don't live with snakes!" Lin Qin muttered and chuckled,""What a good analogy. Think of yourself as a true dragon and I as a small snake. It's just that your analogy is too early. It's not certain who is the true dragon. Moreover, even a small snake has the chance to molt into a dragon.”
Zhao Mulan couldn't help but sneer. The other party was simply boasting shamelessly. Judging from the current situation, it was obvious who was the true dragon and who was the little snake. He actually said that it was uncertain who was the true dragon. Did he think that he would become a true dragon one day and soar in the sky?
"Alright, I'm not interested in arguing with you about the established facts. I just want to ask you one thing. Do you agree to cancel the engagement?”
" Why not?" Lin Qin replied without hesitation." I agree to call off the engagement."”Lin Qin knew his own potential. As long as he was given time, he could reach the Xiantian realm, the Grandmaster realm, or even the Great Grandmaster realm in the future. There was no need for him to be entangled with a woman.
In addition, so what if he did not agree? The other party had even invited the inner sect elder of the Moon Worship Sect. If he did not agree, he would be asking for humiliation. Now that he had agreed, he had changed from being passive to taking the initiative and retained his last bit of dignity. Of course, what she had given him today, he would definitely return it in the future. He wanted to let her know that true dragons did not speak with their mouths, but relied on their actions.
Both sides were silent for a while.
A moment later, Zhao Mulan's right middle finger gently scratched the crystal ring on her left hand. A faint light flickered, and a secret manual suddenly appeared on her hand.
Lin Qin's eyes narrowed.
The storage ring was a legendary treasure for ordinary people, but it was a necessary item for high-level warriors. The ring had its own space and could store a large number of items, such as gold, pills, herbs, clothes, and weapons. It could be stored without feeling any weight.
He did not expect the other party to have a storage ring. One had to know that only two or three core disciples of the Heaven's Will Sect had one.
"This is a top rank Human Realm manual, Bone Melting Divine Palm. If you can comprehend it, you can defeat a warrior of the same level. But don't worry, this isn't the Moon Worship Sect's martial art, but a martial art I got from a thief I killed. It's not a threat, and it can be considered my compensation to you.”Zhao Mulan raised her chin slightly, as if she had just thrown out an ordinary item.
"I will take what I want myself.”Lin Qin refused without hesitation. What a joke. It was just a top rank Mortal Realm manual. There was no need to sell his pride. Moreover, if he accepted it, the other party would look down on him and think that he had no backbone.
"Don't you understand?" Zhao Mulan frowned. With your talent, who knows when you will become an inner disciple.”
" You don't have to worry about the annulment of the engagement," Lin Qin said coldly." I'll keep my word. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave first."”
After saying that, Lin Qin turned around and walked towards the hall. He needed to report to Luo Gang before he could leave.
Zhao Mulan was stunned, and then she revealed a mocking expression. She thought that the other party was doing it on purpose for her to see. Otherwise, why would he let go of a top-tier Mortal Realm secret manual? After all, this level of secret manual was not a cabbage that could be obtained easily. Unfortunately, the other party was wasting his effort. She would not like him at all.
On the way, Lin Yu stopped Lin Qin.
"Why are you so stubborn? Just accept the secret manual.”Lin Yu had a lot of authority in the Lin family. In the past, Lin Qin did not dare to argue with her.
"There are many secret manuals in the Heaven's Will Sect.”
Lin Yu shook her head and said," You've changed. You've become unreasonable. I know that you're feeling humiliated in your heart, but to be honest, you and Sister Mulan really don't deserve each other. Her future husband should be someone like the four great young masters, not a small figure like you. Of course, I'm not belittling you. Small figures also have their own ways of living. The advantage is that they're stable and practical.”
" I'm being unreasonable. Forget it." Lin Qin didn't want to continue talking to these two arrogant women. Sometimes, the more reasonable you were, the more they would think that you were calculative. If you didn't care, the other party would be aggressive and say that you were useless. Therefore, the best way was to ignore them.
"Family meeting at the end of the year." After saying that, Lin Qin strode into the reception hall.
In the hall.
Murong Chong glanced at Lin Qin." You know your place. Zhao Mulan is one of the most talented disciples in the Moon Worship Sect. She is indeed not worthy of you."”
Lin Qin cursed in his heart. Old man, what does it have to do with you whether you're worthy or not? Everyone in the Moon Worship Sect is the same. They're arrogant and think that they're no longer mortals. Now, even Lin Yu has this bad habit.
"One day, I will defeat all the disciples of your Moon Worship Sect one by one. I will let you know that everyone is human and that the Moon Worship Sect is nothing.
Although he thought so in his heart, Lin Qin wouldn't say it out loud. To talk back to a late-stage Zongshi realm and an inner sect elder of the Moon Worship Sect was an act of courting death.
"Sect Master, I'll take my leave first." Lin Qin bowed to Luo Gang.
Luo Gang waved his hand." Since the problem is solved, you may leave!”
"Yes, sir!"
Lin Qin turned around and left without even looking at Zhao Mulan.
Lin Yu, who was beside Zhao Mulan, pursed her lips. She felt a little embarrassed. They were both disciples of the Lin family, but why was the difference so huge?
"I hope he won't tell Aunty Hua about this," said Zhao Mulan softly.”
"I don't think he would dare." Lin Yu said firmly.
