Dare to Cancel the Engagement? I Will Marry Your Ancestor! - Chapter 1

CHAPTER 1:

Cancelled Engagement? Then Bring Your Ancestor!

In Tianyun Sect, the atmosphere turns tense as a young woman in a green dress declares to the sect master, Mo Ling, that she loves someone else and requests to break off their engagement. Mo Ling is furious, while the girl proudly announces her love for Li Daotian of the Xingyao Sect and her intent to join him there for training, having awakened a special power.

The elders are shocked and start whispering among themselves, recognizing the insult to both the sect and Mo Ling on his birthday. If not handled well, this could diminish Tianyun Sect’s status in the region.

Suddenly, Mo Ling’s memories flood back, and he realizes he has transmigrated into this new life after failing a breakthrough and being angered to death by the girl’s demand to break the engagement.

As he takes in his new identity as a sect master, he notices the girl’s arrogant expression, not treating him with any respect. Just as he’s about to speak, a cold, emotionless voice activates a system in his mind, hinting at something interesting.

Before Mo Ling could speak, a cold, robotic voice echoed in his mind, surprising and delighting him.

“Emotion simulation?”

Mo Ling was startled, then overjoyed. As expected, transmigration always comes with a golden finger!

But before he could celebrate, the original body’s emotions affected him, making his expression turn cold.

Twenty years ago, the Long family had only a few dozen people and fled to Beihan Prefecture. Under the protection of Tianyun Sect, they grew into a prominent family. The marriage engagement was originally to thank Mo Ling.

But who would have thought that the good deed from twenty years ago would result in nurturing an ungrateful person like Long Ziyan?

“Good. This is really good.”

Mo Ling’s gaze turned colder as he felt pain in his chest, growing more furious.

Mo Ling recalled that it was Long Qianqian, the ancestor of the Long family, who had come to him back then. Although Long Qianqian was over a hundred years old, she looked as youthful as an eighteen-year-old girl when he met her ten years ago. More importantly, Mo Ling had discovered that Long Qianqian had a rare Dragon-Phoenix physique!

Mo Ling didn’t take advantage of Long Qianqian as driven by kindness but instead arranged the marriage. Who knew it would result in the betrayal of the Long family?

“If the Long family shows no mercy, don’t blame me for being ruthless!”

As Mo Ling recalled the past, his gaze towards Long Ziyan grew even colder.

“Is breaking the engagement your decision, or the Long family’s?”

Mo Ling asked.

“It’s my decision, but it’s also the Long family’s.”

Long Ziyan answered without hesitation, confident that Mo Ling wouldn’t dare offend the Xingyao Sect over an engagement.

“Oh? Does your ancestor know about this?”

Mo Ling’s lips curve into a slight smile; a plan is forming in his mind.

“Of course, the ancestor knows,” Long Ziyan responded, still oblivious to the seriousness of the situation, her face full of pride.

“Good, I agree to break off the engagement, but I have one condition,” Mo Ling said decisively.

“Speak, I will have the Xingyao Sect fulfill it,” Long Ziyan replied confidently, completely disregarding Mo Ling.

“Very well, then tell Long Qianqian, your ancestor, that she can take your place since you don’t want to marry me,” Mo Ling said calmly.

“Alright, I will… What?!” Long Ziyan was about to agree when she suddenly froze, thinking she had misheard, staring at Mo Ling in disbelief.

[Ding! Emotion Points from Long Ziyan +500]

[Ding! Emotion Points from Hu Xin +400]

Not only was Long Zi Yan dumbfounded, but even the elders around her were all dumbfounded. They didn’t know what to say for a moment.

At this moment, a large amount of emotional value also poured into Mo Ling’s body, and Mo Ling’s heart was filled with joy!

“I said, since you don’t want to be my wife, then I will become your ancestor,” Mo Ling said playfully, looking at Long Ziyan.

“You! You! You shameless!” Long Ziyan’s face turned red with anger, her hand trembling as she pointed at Mo Ling.

[Ding! Emotion Points from Long Ziyan +500]

Immediately, a large amount of Emotion Points was credited.

“Oh? Is that so? Have I not been abiding by the agreement from the beginning?” Mo Ling spread his hands, smiling innocently.

“I warn you! I am the future saintess of Xingyao Sect! Don’t go too far!” Long Ziyan thought for a moment, then resumed her arrogant expression, yelling at Mo Ling.

“Xingyao Sect? Hmph! My Tianyun Sect has been offering substantial tributes over the years. I wonder if Xingyao Sect will protect your ancestor or our Tianyun Sect!” Mo Ling no longer pretended, standing up with a flick of his sleeve, looking at Long Ziyan dominantly.

Although Xingyao Sect was powerful, much of its resources came from smaller sects’ tributes, with Tianyun Sect contributing a significant amount over the years. In this world of the strong preying on the weak, there were no favors, only eternal interests. Destroying Tianyun Sect wouldn’t be a profitable move for Xingyao Sect.

Long Ziyan was unaware that her Extreme Yin Body was also a rare and excellent dual cultivation furnace. It was said that the Xingyao Sect’s sect master had been stuck at a bottleneck for a long time. The reason for inviting Long Ziyan to Xingyao Sect was obvious.

Unfortunately, Long Ziyan seemed unaware of what she was about to face. Mo Ling wouldn’t warn an ungrateful person like her, as he was not as benevolent as the original owner of the body.

“Mo Ling! You…”

Long Ziyan trembled with anger, her chest heaving as if she were about to suffocate.

“I will give you one day. If I don’t see Long Qianqian tomorrow, your Long family will face extermination!” Mo Ling waved his hand dismissively and left the hall.
