Chapter 333: Seeking Revenge on the Old Dog? No~ He Came to Settle a Marriage Issue!
"Boom!"
With a deep, resounding thud, a massive black coffin appeared in the middle of Yun Lan Sect's plaza.
The sight of it instantly changed the expressions of all the Yun Lan Sect disciples. This young man was none other than Xiao Yan, the so called remnant of the Xiao Clan!
So Xiao Yan, who had vanished from the Xiao Residence, had actually arrived at Yun Lan Sect ahead of everyone else…
But why?
"Holy sht! This kid!"*
"This kid, holy sht!"*
The outsiders who had come to Yun Lan Sect to curry favor and attend the wedding were utterly shocked by Xiao Yan's actions.
"Xiao Yan! It's him!"
Among the crowd, only Nalan Yanran truly recognized Xiao Yan.
The moment she saw him this man she had humiliated and discarded like trash her brows furrowed deeply, and a wave of disgust surged in her chest.
If she could choose, she would never want to see him again.
But fate was cruel.
She had just emerged from secluded training, and the first person she saw was this disgusting guy.
"How revolting."
To Nalan Yanran, Xiao Yan was already a worthless nobody.
Even if he had become stronger, how could he possibly compare to Brother Wu Tian?
No matter how much he changed, was he as handsome as Brother Wu Tian?
No matter how much he improved, could he attract as many women as Brother Wu Tian?
Xiao Yan: …Are you serious right now?!
Ignoring the reactions of those around him, Xiao Yan smiled faintly, then leaped into the air.
With a perfect mid air backflip, he reached out and grabbed his massive black ruler, spinning it skillfully before securing it behind his back.
Then, he effortlessly shouldered the black coffin, striding step by step toward the center of the plaza.
Each deliberate footstep echoed across the silent crowd, making many people's hearts pound in sync with the sound.
As he walked closer, the footsteps grew louder, but no one in Yun Lan Sect moved to stop him not because they were afraid, but because no one had given the order.
Under the vast sky, a lone figure dressed in black, with a massive black ruler on his back and a black coffin on his shoulder, stepped into the very heart of Yun Lan Sect's wedding ceremony.
The bizarre sight made both Yun Lan Sect's disciples and the wedding guests look at him as if he were a complete joke.
To them, Xiao Yan was nothing but a clown.
There had to be something wrong with his brain.
Otherwise, why else would he come alone to cause trouble at Yun Lan Sect?
I mean, seriously just because Nalan Yanran rejected him years ago, he showed up with a coffin?
She was one of the most beautiful women in the Jia Ma Empire, yet he wanted to bury her?
What kind of insanity was this?
And did he even have the strength to back it up?
If this wasn't the definition of a clown, what was?
Many had once thought Nalan Yanran's act of annulling the engagement was too cruel.
But seeing this scene now, they felt that her decision was completely justified!
A guy like Xiao Yan didn't even deserve to be engaged to a woman as beautiful and outstanding as Nalan Yanran!
The mocking voices quickly spread across the crowd, and many people spoke up on Nalan Yanran's behalf, feeling indignant for her.
Some even felt guilty for ever doubting her decision three years ago.
For Yun Lan Sect's disciples, Nalan Yanran was their untouchable goddess and now, this trash dared to show up here and insult her?
At this moment, Xiao Yan was worth less than garbage in their eyes.
But Xiao Yan didn't care at all.
For him, their insults were as insignificant as dogs barking in the distance.
His cold gaze locked onto Yun Shan, who sat at the head of the sect, and he spoke in a chilling voice:
"Old Dog Yun Shan! You destroyed my Xiao Clan, bringing ruin and death upon my family! This blood feud cannot be washed away unless I take your worthless old dog head!"
A stunned silence filled the plaza.
In all his decades as Yun Lan Sect's leader, who had ever dared to call Yun Shan an "Old Dog" to his face?
Even with his cold and sinister personality, Yun Shan's face twitched visibly in anger.
But he maintained his calm, putting on an expression of feigned confusion, and spoke with a cold, authoritative tone:
"Boy, what does your Xiao Clan's fate have to do with my Yun Lan Sect?"
"I'll overlook your offense today because of your youth. But if you dare to spout nonsense again, don't blame this old man for putting you in your place!"
Hearing Yun Shan's shameless denial, Xiao Yan's face darkened instantly.
Even now, this old bastard refused to admit it?
His thick skin was truly unmatched.
However, revenge on Yun Shan wasn't Xiao Yan's main objective today.
To be honest, the Xiao Clan's fate didn't really concern him.
Most of them had humiliated and mocked him so why should he care if they lived or died?
If not for his two older brothers, he wouldn't have lifted a finger for the Xiao Clan.
No, today he had a different goal…
Xiao Yan gripped his black ruler, suddenly swinging it down.
The massive weapon slammed into the ground with a heavy boom, stirring up a cloud of dust.
Golden Dou Qi energy flickered across his body, radiating intense pressure.
But he didn't even look at Yun Shan anymore.
Instead, he turned his gaze toward the person no one expected
Nalan Yanran.
"Three years ago, you humiliated me. Today, I have returned as promised."
"Now, let's end this engagement and settle the shame you brought upon me!"
"What…?"
The entire Yun Lan Sect even Yun Shan himself was stunned beyond belief.
Xiao Yan… came here not for revenge, but to settle a marriage issue?
He didn't come to kill Yun Shan.
He came to break off his engagement?!
His priorities were seriously insane!
Of all the things he could have done, he came to cancel his engagement first?!
The logic of it made zero sense!
Of course, no one else could understand Xiao Yan's thoughts.
The night before, he had thought it through.
His engagement with Nalan Yanran was still binding.
And considering the Nalan Family's position with her grandfather siding with the empire and Yanran still loyal to Yun Lan Sect her family would remain influential no matter who won this war.
If Yun Lan Sect won, he'd have to flee immediately.
If Wu Tian's side won, breaking the engagement would still be difficult, since Yanran and Wu Tian were friends.
And if he kept the engagement, then every future woman in his life would be labeled as a concubine instead of a main wife.
This could not be allowed!
To Xiao Yan, this was a life or death crisis!
"Hmph! Xiao Yan, my marriage is my own decision! Even after three years, you still aren't worthy of me!"
