Mr. Wei's eyes were as sharp as torches as he glanced coldly at Lei Tingyi, a sneer of disdain appearing at the corner of his mouth.

"Isn't it ridiculous that the future leader of a clan is so obsessed with love? Lei Tingyi, who do you think you are? Can you go against the wishes of the family and pursue so-called personal happiness?"

There was a bone-chilling chill in Mr. Wei's words, as if to completely shatter Lei Tingyi's determination.

Upon hearing this, Liu Zhu and Liu Ying's faces became even uglier. They clenched their teeth, as if trying to suppress the anger that was about to burst out.

Chen Yan and Pei Ling looked at each other, with a hint of worry in their eyes.

They knew that although Mr. Wei's words were harsh, they also touched the core of the problem - between family interests and personal happiness, can Lei Tingyi really make his own choice?

Lei Tingyi's expression remained firm. He looked directly at Mr. Wei, his tone revealing an unquestionable determination.

"Mr. Wei, I have never thought of disobeying the family, but I will never sacrifice my own happiness to cater to the wishes of the family. Marriage is a matter that concerns my lifelong happiness. How can I not consider it carefully?"

Yu Lingxi listened silently at the side, feeling mixed emotions.

She hopes that Lei Tingyi can consider the overall interests of the family, but also hopes that he can pursue his own happiness.

However, she felt extremely struggled and helpless between reality and ideal.

Seeing this, Ling Jiuan sighed softly.

She knew that the complexity and entanglement behind this marriage could not be resolved by a few words.

She decided to step forward and put an end to this awkward conversation.

"Okay, everyone calm down. Marriage is a serious matter and needs to be considered carefully. Why don't we put this topic aside and talk about other things?"

Ling Jiuan's words were like a breeze, blowing away the tense and awkward atmosphere.

Everyone nodded in agreement.

However, in everyone's mind, the topic of this marriage is like a thorn that pierces deeply into their hearts.

Seeing this, although Yu Lingxi felt extremely unwilling and bitter, he also knew that today's matter could no longer be discussed.

She gritted her teeth, held back the tears in her eyes, bent her knees slightly and saluted everyone, her voice trembling a little.

"Please forgive me, Lingxi is leaving first."

After saying that, she turned around and was about to leave, but her steps seemed a little heavy.

Seeing this, Liu Zhu and Liu Ying couldn't help but feel sympathy. They knew that although Yu Lingxi came from a prominent family, he also had his own helplessness and difficulties.

Chen Yan and Pei Ling looked at each other, their eyes revealing a bit of complexity.

They knew that behind this marriage, there were too many interests and entanglements hidden, and Yu Lingxi and Lei Tingyi were just two chess pieces in this overall situation.

Ling Jiuan looked at Yu Lingxi's departing back and sighed in his heart.

She knew very well that this marriage might be an inescapable fate for Yu Lingxi.

However, what she hopes more is that everyone can find their own happiness instead of being bound by family interests.

Lei Tingyi remained silent, just looking quietly in the direction where Yu Lingxi left.

Everyone dispersed, each with their own thoughts and considerations in their hearts.

After leaving Lei Tingyi's yard, Mr. Wei looked at Yu Lingxi coldly, with a hint of blame and dissatisfaction in his tone.

"Miss, Lei Tingyi is so ungrateful, are you still going to be merciful? How can he trample on the interests of the family at will?"

Upon hearing this, Yu Lingxi paused with a complicated expression.

She knew very well that what Mr. Wei said was true and that the interests of the family were indeed above all else, but she always had an emotion in her heart that was hard to let go.

She sighed, with a hint of helplessness in her voice.

"Mr. Wei, I am not soft-hearted, but... this engagement, after all, concerns my lifelong happiness. How can I not consider it carefully?"

Mr. Wei sneered, his tone revealing an unquestionable determination.

"Happiness? Miss, do you think marriage can really bring happiness? In this world of cultivation, strength and status are the most important. As long as you marry Lei Tingyi, our Yu family will be able to gain a firm foothold in the world of cultivation. Then, why worry about not having happiness?"

Yu Lingxi felt bitter when she heard what Mr. Wei said.

She knew that what Mr. Wei said was not entirely unreasonable, but she always had an indescribable resistance in her heart.

She didn't want her marriage to become a victim of family interests, and she didn't want her life to be controlled by others.

However, facing the expectations and pressure from her family, she felt extremely struggled and helpless.

She took a deep breath, trying to calm her emotions, and then spoke slowly.

"Mr. Wei, I will seriously consider this matter. But please give me some time to think about it."

After saying this, she turned and left, her steps firm and heavy.

She knew that she had to make a choice, a choice that would determine her entire life.

After careful consideration, Yu Lingxi decided to visit Master Lei again.

She was dressed in gorgeous clothes, dignified and graceful. She walked into Sect Master Lei's residence, bowed deeply to him, and her tone was full of earnestness and determination.

"Sect Master Lei, Lingxi is so bold as to ask Lei Xiao Sect to fulfill the marriage contract."

Upon hearing this, Sect Leader Lei sighed with a complicated expression.

He was well aware of the conflicting interests behind this marriage, and also understood Yu Lingxi's difficulties.

However, as the leader of a sect, he hopes more that his disciples can be happy.

"Lingxi, a forced melon is not sweet."

Sect Leader Lei spoke slowly, his voice revealing a hint of helplessness and admonition.

"Are you sure you want to sacrifice your own happiness for the good of your family?"

Yu Lingxi felt bitter when she heard what Sect Master Lei said.

She knew that what Sect Leader Lei said was true, but she was also fully aware of the responsibilities and mission on her shoulders.

She gritted her teeth and spoke in a firm voice.

"Master Lei, I am sure I want to do this. This is not only for the benefit of the family, but also for my own future. I believe that as long as I marry Tingyi, our two families can prosper together, and I can find my place in Leixiao Sect."

Sect Leader Lei looked at Yu Lingxi's determined eyes and sighed inwardly.

He knew that this decision might not be easy for Yu Lingxi, but she chose to face it bravely.

He nodded, his voice revealing a hint of helplessness and respect.

"Since you have made up your mind, I won't say anything more. I just hope that you can find your own happiness."

Upon hearing this, Yu Lingxi felt a surge of gratitude in his heart.

She knew that although Sect Master Lei could not change the fate of this marriage, his words gave her firm strength.

She saluted to Master Lei again, then turned and left with firm and resolute steps.

It seems that no one in the Lei Xiao Sect stands on her side now.
