I was forced to leave the world of immortal cultivation after being transformed into a loser.

Now that the cause has been discovered, we will find a solution sooner or later.

She didn't ignore the murderous intent that flashed across Gu Zhen's eyes. She had a plan in mind.

At this time, the servant came to report: "Master, the third prince is here to visit."

Gu Zhen glanced at Gu Liyue, who lowered her head slightly to hide the hatred in her eyes.

"Please invite the Third Prince to the main hall to have tea."

As he spoke, he led the two elders and Gu Liyue towards the main hall.

In Donglin Country, the Gu family, as a century-old family, is actually no less prestigious than the royal family. However, there have been no outstanding figures among the Gu family members in the past two generations, causing the Gu family to gradually decline.

Now the head of the family’s cultivation level is only at the Golden Core Stage, and he has not been able to break through to the Nascent Soul Stage for more than ten years.

The eldest daughter's engagement with the royal family was also intended to bring her closer to the royal family. If the family declines in the future, with this connection to the royal family, at least they won't be suppressed.

Gu Zhen had heard that the third prince wanted to cancel the engagement before, but he didn't take it seriously.

The three giants of the Gu family sat down in the main hall, and Gu Liyue stood behind Gu Zhen.

At this time, the third prince Xiao Xianchuan walked in.

He saw Gu Liyue standing behind the head of the Gu family. When he saw her wearing a veil, he remembered the ugly scar on her face. He snorted in his heart: A person with a disfigured face wants to marry this prince. What a wishful thinking.

Seeing that she still didn't dare to look at people, he felt relieved, thinking that she was not dead and would make a fuss about him and Yaoyao stealing her strange fire.

Seeing her look today, as if she was afraid of him, he felt relieved.

Patriarch Gu looked at the Third Prince and said, "Your Highness, I wonder what brings you here today?"

Xiao Xianchuan glanced at them and said, "Today, I'm here to cancel the engagement."

Gu Zhen's face darkened when he heard this. This third prince was really impatient!

He pulled a long face but didn't speak.

Gu Liyue suddenly raised her head and glanced at him, feeling very excited. She had wanted to cancel the engagement but couldn't find a way. Now that the other party had brought it up first, she had to seize this opportunity.

As for the revenge for the strange fire, I can't do it with my own strength now.

She asked in a low voice, "My marriage to His Highness was granted by His Majesty. I wonder if His Highness would agree to cancel the engagement?"

She was worried that if the Third Prince came to cancel the engagement, His Majesty would turn around and disagree, and the engagement would definitely not be canceled.

Xiao Xianchuan recalled what happened yesterday when he went to his father to ask for a breakup of the engagement.

"Father, I want to break off my engagement with Gu Liyue. She is still unable to practice cultivation."

The King of Donglin Kingdom sat in the imperial study, looking at his third prince. Among his many sons, Xianchuan was the one with better cultivation and comprehension. His throne might be inherited by him in the future. He really couldn't marry a princess who couldn't practice cultivation.

However, if he blatantly broke off the engagement, he would be criticized, so he had to think of a way. The prince obviously did not think of this problem.

He had no choice but to say, "You can cancel the engagement, but you have to let Gu Liyue cancel it voluntarily."

Xiao Xianchuan felt embarrassed when he thought of how Gu Liyue always wanted to cling to him.

"If Patriarch Gu agrees to cancel the engagement between me and Gu Liyue..."

The emperor looked at him and knew he had something in mind: "How are you going to get Gu Zhen to agree to cancel the engagement?"

"This son wants to marry the second young lady of the Gu family. She is currently at the second level of foundation building. This son thinks she is much stronger than Gu Liyue."

The emperor seemed to be thinking about something. He also knew that Xiao Xianchuan was interested in Gu Yaoyao, the second daughter of the Gu family. Well, since he was marrying the daughter of the Gu family, it wouldn't be too bad if it got out.

Then he waved his hand: "Go down."

Xiao Xianchuan was very excited. His father finally agreed. He was extremely happy when he thought that he could finally be with Gu Yaoyao.

He walked briskly, humming a tune, and everyone who saw him could tell that he was in high spirits.

As long as the emperor and the head of the Gu family agree to cancel the engagement, Gu Liyue wouldn't dare to say anything.

If she still refuses, then give her some compensation. As long as I can break off the engagement with her and get engaged to Gu Yaoyao, there's nothing wrong with giving her some spirit stones.

He collected his thoughts and looked at Gu Liyue, only to find she glanced at him and then lowered her head. Unlike before, she always wanted to come closer when she saw him. Perhaps she was scared after being caught digging for the strange fire that day.

"As long as you are willing to cancel the engagement, I will go to my father and persuade him. As long as you are willing to cancel the engagement, I can give you compensation."

Gu Liyue's eyes lit up as she glanced at Gu Zhen. She wasn't sure how much compensation would be appropriate, and she had no idea what good things the Third Prince had on him! She really regretted not having made sufficient preparations; it was a bit of a loss.

How to do?

Suddenly, a baby voice rang in my mind: "It's okay, Xiaoxuan is here, you won't lose anything."

I didn't expect that when I got excited, Xiaoxuan heard what I was thinking.

After a second of reflection, he felt happy inside: "Xiaoxuan is great! But I only know what he carries with him, I don't know what good things he has hidden in his house."

Xiao Xuan said formally in a baby voice, "People with advanced cultivation usually have Qiankun bags. More advanced ones have storage rings, bracelets, etc. All good things are usually carried in these Qiankun bags or storage magic weapons. So there's no need to worry about the things in his house."

Gu Liyue had to admit that she was an outsider and had not yet truly integrated into this world.

Just as Gu Liyue was communicating with Xiaoxuan, the Third Elder shouted, "Third Prince, it was the King who originally granted the marriage. Now you say you want to cancel the engagement, and then where will the reputation of our Gu family be?"

Xiao Xianchuan felt at ease when he saw that Gu Liyue seemed a little moved.

Hearing what the Third Elder said, he had no choice but to say, "Master Gu, two elders, I am not breaking off the engagement with the Gu family."

He paused for a moment, and seeing that Patriarch Gu was looking at him without responding, he continued, "I want to change my marriage partner to Miss Gu Er. I hope Patriarch Gu will agree."

Gu Zhen thought for a moment and didn't answer.

The third elder added: "Exchange marriage..."

Then it's no longer a family issue, it's a matter between the younger generation. I just feel a little sorry for Gu Liyue. That's all. Big Brother didn't say anything.

At this time, Ye Yalin came in with Gu Yaoyao at the door of the main hall. Gu Yaoyao looked weak and delicate, and the man felt pity at the sight of her.

Gu Liyue couldn't help but complain in her heart: Gu Yaoyao is really good at acting.

Gu Zhen looked at Ye Yalin and Gu Yaoyao, and was very unhappy that they did not take his orders seriously, but he could not get angry because there were guests around, and besides, the third prince had just proposed to Gu Yaoyao.

He glared at Ye Yalin and suppressed his dissatisfaction.

Watch them salute the Third Prince.

When Gu Yaoyao stood up, she staggered and fell forward. The third prince immediately stood up and caught her.

She glanced at Gu Liyue, then hurriedly let go of the Third Prince's hand and said, "Sister, don't misunderstand me. I just couldn't stand, so His Highness helped me up. Don't be angry."
