Chapter 9: Ancient RUins

"Don't worry about it. You want to cancel the engagement, and I have already agreed," Su Zhan said, his gaze falling on Su Chengyun. He continued calmly, "Now that you have gotten what you wanted, what is there left to consider?"

"I" Su Chengyun's face turned bitter.

Who was the bastard that said Su Zhan was useless?

At sixteen years old, in the middle stage of the Qi Sea Realm, with mastery of multiple martial arts If he was useless, then were there any geniuses in this world???

Su Chengyun felt extremely frustrated and wanted to grab those who spread rumors about Su Zhan being useless and beat them to death!

If it wasn't for these fools, how could he have come to cancel the engagement?

If he didn't cancel the engagement, with Su Zhan's unparalleled talent, he would surely lead the Su family of Tang City to soar into the sky. It was not impossible to become one of the strongest families in Xia country!

But now, he had actually come to cancel the engagement with such a genius

Su Chengyun regretted his decision so much that his guts turned green, and he quickly tried to remedy the situation, saying, "Su Zhan, my young friend, it was my momentary confusion. I believed the rumors spread by those people outside! Today, I saw you and realized that you are not the useless person they described. You are truly a peerless genius!"

Pausing for a moment, Su Chengyun pulled Su Zhaoyue, who was still in a daze, forward and said with a smile, "It just so happens that my granddaughter is also a heavenly beauty, and the two of you are a match made in heaven! You are perfect for each other!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the elders who followed the Su family of Tang City also spoke up.

"Yes, yes, yes! Young Master Su Zhan is a talented person, and Miss Zhaoyue is pure and beautiful. The two of them are very compatible!"

"I never expected that Young Master Su Zhan was the brave youth who helped us on the deserted mountain. The Su family is grateful to Young Master Su Zhan. Since we have this opportunity, let's become in-laws! Our Tang City Su family will definitely prepare a very grand dowry!"

"Young Master Su Zhan is a stunning talent, and only Miss Zhaoyue is worthy of him!"

Complimentary words were spoken one after another.

The elders of the Azure City Su family, including Su Tianhai, were somewhat dumbfounded.

What's going on?

Just now, the people of the Tang City Su family were still arrogant and domineering, but after Su Zhan appeared, they actually nodded and bowed, trying to please him? Didn't their attitude change too quickly??

Listening to those people's words, Su Zhan remained calm and said, "Have you really decided not to call off the engagement?"

"Really, absolutely!" Su Chengyun quickly said.

The elders also nodded repeatedly, afraid of missing the opportunity to establish a relationship with Su Zhan.

"You're not calling off the engagement" Su Zhan's mouth quirked up, revealing a faint smile. "But I want to call it off!"

"What does that mean?" Su Chengyun's smile just disappeared and he stuttered.

"The Tang City Su family can call off the engagement, so of course, I can also call off the engagement."

Su Zhan glanced at Su Chengyun and said, "No need for words, today it's not the Tang City's Su family calling off the engagement, it's our Azure City's Su family canceling this marriage!"

Turning his head slightly, he looked at Su Tianhai and said, "Dad, bring the marriage contract!"

"Okay!" Su Tianhai responded loudly, took out the prepared marriage contract, and handed it to Su Zhan.

"From now on, I, Su Zhan, have nothing to do with your Tang City Su family!"

As soon as the words fell, Su Zhan's True Qi erupted, and the marriage contract in his hand exploded into countless pieces of paper!

The people of the Tang City Su family were all blushing and feeling great shame.

Originally, they came to call off the engagement today, but they did not expect that after their humble begging, the marriage contract would still be destroyed in front of them.

"If you don't want to destroy the marriage contract of the Tang City Su family, keep it as a memento! Anyway, it's just a piece of waste paper now!"

Su Zhan said calmly, glancing at the regretful Su Chengyun.

"Su Zhan, I have something to say to you." Su Zhaoyue said, who had been quiet and watching everything silently.

"Go ahead!"

"Can we talk alone?"

Su Zhan nodded, his gaze falling on Su Zhaoyue's face.

They then went to a small garden outside the main hall.

"Su Zhan, even though you are now so talented, I will still withdraw from this marriage, even if you don't say anything," Su Zhaoyue said slowly. "I have always thought that marriage is a lifetime commitment. At best, we can only be childhood playmates. Do we really have romantic feelings for each other? Clearly not."

"If there are no feelings, the engagement should be cancelled. Of course, cancelling the engagement is also my other consideration."

Thinking of something, Su Zhaoyue smiled slightly. "If you were really as rumored, with poor talent, keeping the engagement with me would bring you a lot of trouble. In Tang City, I already have many suitors, and I don't want to harm you. But today, I realized that I was thinking too much"

"I see." Su Zhan's gaze remained on Su Zhaoyue's face, confirming that she was not lying, and his opinion of her improved slightly.

The Su family in Tang City was powerful and unscrupulous, but Su Zhaoyue wasn't mean or arrogant and did not give him any reason to dislike her.

"Well then, it's all for the best."

"All for the best" Su Zhaoyue smiled bitterly, reluctantly nodding, and took out a black token from her storage bracelet, handing it to Su Zhan.

"This is the token that breaks the prohibition in the ancient ruins of the Origin Elixer Realm in Liang Province. The defensive formation there has reached its weakened cycle, and if you are willing, I would like to invite you to go with me. It's also a way for me to repay you for saving my life!"

The ruins of a Origin Elixer Realm expert

Memories flashed through Su Zhan's mind.

This ruin was not actually a big secret. Many cultivators in Liang Province knew about it, but the formation was too strong for anyone to dare to enter.

Later, a formation master discovered that every three years, the formation in that ruin would enter a weakened period. With the access token made by Liang Province's top formation master, one could enter the ruins during that time.

Of course, it was only limited to below the Martial Master realm. Otherwise, the formation would be activated and kill anyone who entered, leaving nothing but bones!

The price of an access token was around 3,000 spirit stones, more expensive than an Ordinary grade weapon.

"Okay." After weighing the pros and cons, Su Zhan agreed directly.

His current cultivation technique was almost unable to keep up with his cultivation level. Perhaps he could find a replacement technique in the ruins.

"Okay, we'll meet at the eastern entrance of the ruins in five days! The formation will be at its weakest stage then!"

"Yes, let's do it as you said."

Then, the two discussed some details and returned to the main hall.

Su Chengyun, who was waiting in the main hall, thought that Su Zhaoyue had gone to find Su Zhan to save their engagement. When he saw Su Zhaoyue come back, he asked in a low voice, "How did it go?"

"It's fine. Grandpa, let's go back!"

"What about the engagement?"

"Cancelled. Our two families will have no more ties in the future."

Su Zhaoyue's voice was crisp and pleasant, but to Su Chengyun, it was like a bolt from the blue!

"Su Zhan, my young friend"

"I don't plan to keep you for dinner. You may leave now."

Su Zhan's face was calm as he interrupted.

"Ah.." Looking at Su Zhan, then at Su Zhaoyue, Su Chengyun sighed.

Back then, when he succeeded to the position of the Patriarch, he vowed to revive the family.

But today, he himself had cut off a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity
