  Needless to say, this must be the young city lord of the Thousand Gold City.

  Ye Xuan was also very suspicious, how did the City Lord of Thousand Gold City, who had some looks that were worth, give birth to such an ugly son, could it be, could it be a problem with the female side?

  "Xue Hai, General Chen said you want to end the engagement?" Wan Jincheng City Leader Zhang Lie went straight to the point.

  Xue Hai's forehead was covered in cold sweat as he nodded, "Yes."

  "No, since we've already agreed to this, how can we go back on our words?" If this marriage is annulled, how would the people of the world view me? " Zhang Lie said somewhat angrily.

  With his identity, finding a beautiful daughter-in-law for his son was simply too easy. If it were not for Xue Hai's background, even if Xue Qingqing had a stunning appearance, it would still be useless.

  Right now, the most important thing was to lose face. A dignified City Lord actually had his marriage annulled by someone. This would definitely become a laughing stock in the world.

  Xue Hai clenched his teeth and didn't explain any further. He directly said, "City lord, I have prepared the double gift already. It will be delivered to the City Lord's Mansion in a while!"

  Upon hearing this, Zhang Lie could no longer hold it in and shouted, "Xue Hai, how dare you! Are you playing with me?"

  Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Chief Reverend immediately stepped forward to protect Xue Hai.

  Zhang Lie frowned slightly. He could feel that this person before him was not simple at all.

  "Who are you?" Zhang Lie asked with some fear in his voice.

  "Lian Yuan, the leader of the Xue Clan." Master Lian replied indifferently.

  "Hmph, I don't care who you are. You just need to remember one thing, this Thousand Gold City is my territory." As Zhang Lie spoke, he turned his attention back to Xue Hai and said, "It's fine if you want to break off the engagement, but it's too easy if you want to double the amount of the betrothal gift. I want ten times more!"

  What?

  Ten times!

  Everyone present was shocked when they heard this. The betrothal gift that was originally 50 million silver became 500 million silver, which was 5 million gold. This was a huge number. Even Xue Hai couldn't take it out in one go.

  "City Governor, you're asking for a lion's head?" Xue Hai's face sank to the bottom. He could take out 500 million silver, but it would be a terrifying amount for him to sell off the majority of his assets.

  "If you want to break off the engagement, then take out a betrothal gift that's tenfold, or else I won't agree!" Zhang Lie said coldly.

  Ye Xuan, who was in the back, could no longer sit still. He had also done similar things in the past, and he suddenly felt that his starting price was too low.

  Zhang Lie had asked for five hundred million silver taels, but he was only asking for three million taels. The difference between them was too great.

  One must know that in the Heaven & Earth Ring, any one of the items that Yu Jin took out exceeded that five hundred million.

  "I lost out, if I had known earlier, I would have shouted a little more. Otherwise, I might have reached the ninth stage of the Martial Dao by now!" Ye Xuan was extremely regretful in his heart. He was still too young back then, and was afraid that shouting out a high price would anger the Heavenly Origin Sect's protector.

  Seeing Ye Xuan and Xue Qingqing walking over, Zhang Lie also spoke in a stern voice: "No wonder you want to end the engagement, so you ran off with this pretty boy. Brat, you even dare to beat up my subordinates, are you tired of living?"

  This was the first time Commander Liu came back, so Zhang Lie understood that there was a person like Ye Xuan here.

  Chapter 50 - Solo

  "City Lord Zhang, that subordinate of yours had a bad temper and acted so arrogantly in front of me, so I taught him a lesson." If City Lord Zhang really wants to blame someone, then blame him for having inferior skills. He can't even beat me, this brat. " Since the matter had already blown up, Ye Xuan could no longer be cowardly.

  "What audacity! General Chen, capture him for me!" Zhang Lie was in a rather agitated mood as he gave the order.

  General Chen, who was behind him, wanted to make his move, but at this moment, the Guardian suddenly blocked in front of Ye Xuan.

  "Mayor Zhang, don't think that your Mayor is too big. I have forgotten to introduce him to you. This little brother is the disciple of the vice sect master. If you dare to touch him, you can think about the consequences." Lian Yuan said as he retreated.

  "The vice sect master of the Cracking Cloud Sect?" Zhang Lie was shocked and asked, "Who are you?"

  "City Lord Zhang is really forgetful. I am Lian Yuan. I was once a instructor of the Cloud Breaking Sect. I am now a minister of the Xue Clan!" Lian Yuan cupped his fists and said.

  A Mentor of the Cracking Cloud Sect!

  Zhang Lie hesitated. He never thought that Xue Hai would actually be able to find a master of the Cracking Cloud Sect to serve as a master. This was going to be troublesome.

  Although Lian Yuan wasn't a Mentor anymore, his strength was still there. The key thing was that he spoke up for Ye Xuan just now, could this be a lie?

  "Impossible!"

  At this moment, the youth with the most apologetic appearance walked out and said, "This brat, and he's the vice sect master's disciple, you really can't judge a book by its cover!"

  F * ck!

  Ye Xuan almost wanted to vomit on his face. With his current state, how could he say that a person cannot judge by appearances?

  "Young master, I know that you are a disciple of a Elder from the Sky Cracking Sect, but you are a member of the Sky Cracking Sect after all, not the Cloud Cracking Sect. How do you know that he is not the vice head's disciple?" Lian Yuan smiled.

  "Hmph hmph, for someone at such a young age, other than using Dan s to pile up the seventh stage of the Martial Dao, the only other thing he had to do was cultivate the inhumane Magic Power. If you want to prove it, then it's simple. As long as you defeat me, then this marriage will be over. I don't need the betrothal gift anymore, and just return it back to me at its original price! "

  The young man said coldly. He could also feel that although Ye Xuan's level was not low, his level and strength was not the same thing.

  "Alright, that's a good idea. If you can defeat my son, then I'll admit that you're a disciple of the Cloud Cleaving Sect's vice sect master. If you lose, then return me ten times the betrothal gift. Xue Hai, what do you think?" Glimmers danced in Zhang Lie's eyes.

  Actually, he had come this time to watch the betrothal gift.

  The tenfold betrothal gift was five hundred million silver taels. This was a huge sum that even he was unable to imagine.

  With these five hundred million silver taels, Xue Hai would probably be in ruins. In the future, the Zhang Clan would dominate the Thousand Gold City, so why would they need to arrange a marriage?

  "This …" Xue Hai hesitated a little, because he knew that Shaocheng Zhixiang was a disciple of the Sky Cracking Sect's Elder and his strength had long since reached the peak of the seventh stage of the Martial Dao.

  Although Ye Xuan was the same, Zhang Xiang was after all, five to six years older than Ye Xuan.

  "Father, promise him, Ye Xuan is very powerful." Xue Qingqing whispered as she hid behind Xue Hai.

  One had to know that she had personally witnessed Ye Xuan killing the Zhang Family's eighth stage middle stage Martial Dao. Although Ye Xuan had consumed the Dan, before consuming it, Ye Xuan was already able to fight with his opponent without being at a disadvantage.

  Xue Hai was still hesitating. He already understood that Zhang Lie did it on purpose.

  That day when Zhang Lie personally came over to propose marriage, Xue Hai also asked about Xue Qingqing's intentions and then arranged the marriage.

  But who would've thought that Zhang Lie's son would be as ugly as a pig?

  All of this was a t
rap set by the Zhang Family to make the Xue Family pay a huge price and then suppress them. After the Zhang Clan made a profit, they could use this fortune to develop their future. In the future, whether it be wealth or power, the Thousand Gold City would be the first in the Zhang Clan.

  "No wonder Qing Qing was able to escape the city so easily. So that's how it is. Forget it, I still owe Big Brother Ye Chong my life. This time, I'm going to give it my all. At worst, we'll just change to a new city!"

  Xue Hai made a decision in his heart. He glanced at Ye Xuan and saw that the latter also nodded slightly.

  Immediately, he replied, "Alright!"

  "Satisfying. That's a promise. If my son wins, your Xue Clan will take out a betrothal gift that is ten times more!" A crafty look appeared on Zhang Lie's face as he thought to himself, "A betrothal gift worth fifty million yuan is not that easy to obtain!"

  Even though he suspected Ye Xuan, he believed more in his son's strength. Even though his son was already over twenty years old, he had already broken through to the peak of the seventh stage of the Martial Dao, just a step away from the eighth stage.

  Perhaps, in the future, he would be able to break through the shackles of the ninth stage of the Martial Dao and reach the tenth stage of the Martial Dao!

  Therefore, he firmly believed that Ye Xuan would definitely lose to Zhang Xiang.

  "If Ye Xuan wins, then we only need to return 50 million!" Xue Qingqing's voice drifted over from behind. She was so scared that she didn't dare to look at Zhang Xiang.

  "Yes!" Zhang Lie nodded.

  Although he didn't think that Ye Xuan would win, he still had to convince the other party.

  "Great, then let City Lord Zhang and I be the referees. One side will fall down three times, and the other side will lose. How about it?" Lian Yuan said.

  "Ok, three times!" Zhang Lie nodded in agreement. At the same time, he whispered to Zhang Xiang, "Be careful, don't hurt him!"

  Although Ye Xuan's identity had to be verified, if the other party was really the deputy sect master's disciple, then the matter would not be easy to resolve.

  "Yes, father!" Zhang Xiang nodded his head, drew his sword and walked out.

  As for Ye Xuan, he clenched his fists and walked out. Right now, he had the Hundred Beast Bloodline, if he used his sword, he would not even be able to unleash 60% of his power.

  "Ye Xuan, you can do it!" If Ye Xuan lost, the Xue Clan wouldn't be able to stay in Thousand Gold City.

  "Yes."

  Ye Xuan nodded, if it was him from before, then maybe it would be troublesome, but now, he did not even put Zhang Xiang in his eyes.

  "If you're ready, then start!" Zhang Lie said. He could not help but want the five hundred million silver taels.

  Zhang Xiang, who was standing ten meters in front of Ye Xuan, snorted coldly in his heart: "What a joke, you dare to say that you're the disciple of the Cloud Cracking Sect's Vice Sect Master?"

  He saw that Ye Xuan's clothes did not fit his at all, because after the latter fused with the Hundred Beast Bloodline previously, his figure had undergone some changes, becoming taller and stronger as well.

  Therefore, he did not take Zhang Lie's words to heart at all.

  It was not important whether or not Ye Xuan was the disciple of the Splitting Cloud Sect's vice sect master, because he was a Elder disciple of the Splitting Heaven Sect.

  And the Sky Cracking Sect was much stronger than the Cloud Cleaving Sect!

  "Watch me destroy your meridians! How dare you steal my fiancée!" Zhang Xiang's eyes flashed, and suddenly shot forward, his speed also far surpassing that of an ordinary seventh stage Martial Dao Warrior.

  Chapter 51 - Easily Defeat

  "Grade Eight Movement Technique?" Ye Xuan was startled, it seemed that Zhang Xiang had some ability, but he still stood at his original position.

  His cultivation realm was the same as Zhang Xiang's. Although the latter had an eighth-grade movement technique, he possessed the blood of a hundred beasts. This was enough to make up for the disparity in martial arts.

  Zhang Xiang instantly appeared in front of Ye Xuan and thrusted his sword towards Ye Xuan's throat.

  Although the rules of the competition was that a person who fell three times would lose, as long as the opponent was able to defeat Ye Xuan in one strike, then it would be his win.

  However, Ye Xuan was not so easy to deal with. He looked at the longsword and suddenly clasped his hands together.

  "Pah!"

  The two palms slammed together, locking the longsword in place.

  What?

  Zhang Xiang was shocked. He found that he was unable to pierce any further, and he was also unable to pull out his sword.

  What kind of power was this?

  While he was still in shock, a big foot suddenly kicked his abdomen, sending him flying.

  Zhang Xiang was sent flying. He did not even take his long sword with him. Instead, he landed on the ground and rolled a few rounds.

  "Fall down once!" Lian Yuan said in surprise.

  Zhang Lie could not believe that the son he was most proud of was actually sent flying with a kick. If it wasn't for the fact that Zhang Xiang was his own son, he would have thought that Zhang Xiang was acting.

  Xue Hai's originally somewhat serious face relaxed a little when he saw this scene.

  "I will kill you!" Zhang Xiang stabilised his body, climbed up from the ground, and directly rushed towards Ye Xuan, covered in dust and wind.

  Grade Eight Martial Arts, Tiger Dragon Fist!

  "Damn it, disciples of big sects really do have benefits, but I'm not an ordinary person!" Ye Xuan was not afraid in the slightest.

  Level 7 martial art, Frost Fist!

  "Boom!"

  Waves of air surged, and dust flew everywhere.

  The two of them fought to be evenly matched.

  However, Ye Xuan had shown mercy, his fist could fight against the Warrior who was in the middle of the eighth stage of the Martial Dao with a rank 7 martial art, but facing Zhang Xiang, he still let go of some water.

  This was because this sparring wasn't about killing the opponent. It was about defeating them.

  "Scram!"

  Ye Xuan suddenly waved his other hand, and fiercely slapped Zhang Xiang's face, the latter's face suffered the immense impact, causing his entire body to fly out once again.

  "Plop!"

  "The second time!"

  The entire audience was once again shocked.

  Zhang Xiang's punch just now was extremely powerful. If it had landed on Zhang Lie or Lian Yuan, the two ninth stage Martial Dao Warrior s, it would have been able to heavily injure him.

  But, Ye Xuan was able to take it head on, what kind of power was that?

  "Haha, twice. There's one more time!" Xue Hai finally revealed a smile.

  Ye Xuan had sent Zhang Xiang flying twice. If he could do it again, he would not have to pay a large amount of silver.

  "Impossible, how could this boy have such strength. I don't believe it, I don't believe it!"

  Zhang Xiang ate the dust off his face and roared in his heart. He got up from the ground and rushed forward again.

  However, Ye Xuan still used his brute force and sent him flying.

  "Boom!"

  Zhang Xiang's whole body was smashed into the wall, almost causing the wall to collapse. As long as he fell down this time, then this battle would be considered a loss.

  "No, I can't fall down. As long as I have that five hundred million silver, I can rush to the ninth stage of Martial Dao in a short time and become the chief disciple of the Sky Cracking Sect!" Zhang Xiang was holding on, he originally thought that Ye Xuan relied on the Dan, but he never thought that he would actually be so strong.

  At this moment, a figure flashed to his side and slapped him.

  Plop!

  Zhang Xiang fell to the ground directly.

  The battle was over!

  "Yay!"

  The moment Zhang Xiang fell to the gro
und, Xue Qingqing, who was behind Xue Hai, also jumped up as she exclaimed.

  However, the expression on the face of the Thousand Gold City expert, Han Li's heart sank, "This kid defeated Xiang'er so easily, could it be that he is really the disciple of the Cloud Cleaving Sect's vice sect master?" Such a big matter, why is there no news of the Cracking Cloud Sect at all? "

  He was still a little suspicious, but Ye Xuan had Lian Yuan, the former mentor of the Cracking Cloud Sect, who proved that he was very strong, with this kind of talent, even the leader of the Cracking Sky Sect would be tempted.

  "City Lord Zhang, Young City Lord has fallen to the ground three times, has Ye Xuan won this battle?" Lian Yuan asked.

  "Hmph."

  Zhang Lie snorted coldly. He would never have thought that his five hundred million plan would actually go down the drain.

  "City Governor, I will send the 50,000,000 silver betrothal gift to the City Governor's Estate untouched." Xue Hai also came over with a smile.

  "General Chen, let's go!" Zhang Lie did not want to stay here any longer and hurriedly asked General Chen to carry the injured Zhang Xiang back.

  At this time, Zhang Xiang did not faint. Before he left, he also said something.

  "I will take revenge in the competition between the two Sects!"

  Ye Xuan was startled when he heard it. Could it be that the Sky Cracking Sect and the Cloud Cleaving Sect are going to compete in the competition between the two sects?

  By that time, however, he would have entered the sect. It didn't matter.

  Watching Zhang Lie and the others leaving the Xue Clan in a hurry, Xue Hai sucked in a breath of cold air and called for his servants to prepare for the banquet.

  This time, it was also thanks to Ye Xuan, or else he would have to pay a heavy price.

  However, his future in the Thousand Gold City might not be so smooth. After offending the Mayor, you still want to do business in the Thousand Gold City?

  … ….

  That night, Xue Hai held a banquet to welcome Ye Xuan and Lian Yuan. If it were not for Ye Xuan and Lian Yuan, then Xue Hai would have lost a large amount of blood.

  "Come, come, nephew, eat more. Tell me what you want to eat, uncle will get it for you." Xue Hai was very happy.
