Chapter 1668 Return to Northwest Continent

To be honest, Lin Chaoci didn't care about Nalan Yanran's life or death, just like the demise of Nalan Jie and the Nalan family had nothing to do with him. Not to mention that this old guy Nalan Jie was not very good, Nalan Yanran was barely acceptable. After all, she had the bonus of admitting defeat and could be considered trustworthy. However, Nalan Jie had never stood on Xiao Yan's side in the Yunlan Sect incident. Apart from the nice words, he had no other expression. In essence, he was untrustworthy. Even if Nalan Jie was trustworthy and did what he said, it was not enough for him to care. After all, what determined whether he cared was the relationship rather than the character and morality.

To put it bluntly, stance is more important than preference.

of course.

This is a complete logic.

Position > Preference.

Preferences > Choices.

Select > Standpoint.

Therefore, what determined Lin Chao's decision to resign was his stance.

It was the choice of that year.

Because now Nalan Yanran is already a member of the Yunlan Sect. In other words, she is Xiaodie's junior sister, and the second disciple of senior sister Yun Yun. Although he does not deny the engagement, everyone has their own aspirations, and it is not good for him to favor any side standing in the middle. If he favors the Xiao family and stops Nalan Yanran from canceling the engagement, then Nalan Yanran will definitely be dissatisfied, and many elders in the Yunlan Sect will also have opinions. Regardless of whether his identity is made public or not, it will cause undercurrents among the Xiao family members. If he favors Nalan Yanran, Xiao Yan will definitely be dissatisfied, and the Xiao family will be dissatisfied as well. After all, we are a family. You help outsiders deal with your own people. It would be too much to make it known to others. You would never do that!

So, from his current perspective.

It is indeed a dilemma.

But everything has its pros and cons.

If used well, he could become the bridge between the Xiao family and the Yunlan Sect, and define this incident as a flood that washed away the Dragon King Temple, where family members did not recognize each other and it was all a pure misunderstanding.

In fact, the most important point is Nalan Yanran.

She did nothing wrong in breaking off the engagement.

The mistake is that the method is wrong.

If she had not brought the Yunlan Sect's people to visit in a show of force, but brought the elders, of course, Nalan Jie would not have agreed, and would not have been embarrassed to go to his house to cancel the engagement. Yun Yun also did not have the energy for that. But it was not difficult to bring a Dou Wang elder down the mountain from the Yunlan Sect. What's more, it was not like they would never come back. Including the journey, it would take at most a month, which was equivalent to a business trip. No elder would mind helping with this small favor. In short, she could take advantage of a dark and windy night to sneak into the Xiao family and visit the clan leader Xiao Zhan, and then ask Xiao Zhan to find Xiao Yan. The four of them could sit down and have a good discussion to resolve the issue of the engagement privately, and Xiao Yan would not become enemies with Nalan Yanran.

At most, you will laugh when you achieve success in the future.

It means that Nalan Yanran is blind.

As the saying goes, those who leave me, yesterday cannot be retained.

as a traveler.

Xiao Yan understood this truth.

What's more, although there were not many fairies in the era before Xiao Yan traveled through time, it was quite common to love the rich and despise the poor. Not to mention the fiancée whom he had never met before, even the girlfriend he lived with day and night might break up with him just because he had no money, no car, and no house. Even if he would be angry about being broken off by Nalan Yanran, he was not angry about Nalan Yanran's behavior, but about his current situation and that he was not strong enough.

Therefore, Nalan Yanran's way of breaking off the engagement was wrong from the beginning. She had many options. She could even go to the Xiao family and discuss with Xiao Zhan and Xiao Yan if she was willing to lower her status. She could ask them to come to the Nalan family to break off the engagement. She would reimburse their travel expenses and give them a Qi Gathering Powder afterwards. This would save both face and substance. At most, she would suffer a little loss. Women whose engagement was broken off would generally suffer a damage to their reputation, which would probably hinder their remarriage.

In addition, it would also damage the reputation of the Yunlan Sect.

Therefore, this if is just an if.

Not realistic.

But the plan of breaking off the engagement privately as mentioned above is still feasible.

In fact, the Xiao family chose not to mention this matter.

The Nalan family did not care about the disappearance of Xiao Yan's fighting spirit.

It's already an implicit rejection.

It means that both parties have reached a tacit understanding.

Generally speaking, this matter will fade away if it is delayed for a while. The so-called arranged marriage can also be interpreted as a joke at the time. In short, as long as you want to find an excuse, you will always find one. The difficulty lies in the balance and how to avoid hurting the reputation of both families.

If the Xiao family comes to cancel the engagement.

Even if it is for the most basic credibility considerations.

Nalan Jie would not agree either.

But if the marriage contract is really carried out, let alone whether Nalan Jie loves his little granddaughter, Nalan Yanran will never agree.

on the contrary.

If Nalan Yanran came to cancel the engagement.

If you don’t do it well, just like in the original book, you will make a three-year agreement.

It even developed to the point where blood was seen.

Even if it is done properly, it will inevitably give people the impression that she is bullying others by taking advantage of her power. To put it bluntly, it will make people think that Nalan Yanran has become successful, so she looks down on her former fiancé. Such a villain who forgets his roots once he gets to power is not worth making friends with.

Therefore, this matter can only be put aside.

Let time dilute this matter.

Nalan Yanran's behavior of going to the door to cancel the engagement was simply tearing off the Xiao family's reputation and trampling on it. Don't blame Xiao Yan and Xiao Zhan for being so angry. Don't hit people in the face, don't peel off the bark of a tree, and don't go to the trouble of killing people. Why should they tear off the last bit of dignity?

Isn’t it good to leave some room for maneuver when doing things?

Besides, the ancestors of the two families were good friends.

It is said that even if a deal fails, the friendship remains.

If you can't be husband and wife, there's no need to be enemies.

However, from this point, it can be seen that Nalan Jie is not as stubborn as imagined. If he really abides by the agreement, he only needs a response to completely erase the matter of Nalan Yanran breaking off the engagement. For example, he can personally take Nalan Yanran to visit the Xiao family, and then apologize, saying that there is something wrong with his education and he has cultivated such a disobedient granddaughter. He hopes that the Xiao family will forgive him, and he will press Nalan Yanran's head to apologize.

In that case, it doesn't matter whether the engagement can be renewed or not.

Both families were given dignity.

As for Nalan Yanran's face...

The past can be covered up by saying that it was due to youthful recklessness.

The same reason.

Xiao Yan's behavior can also be defined as youthful and reckless.

Including writing a letter of divorce or something.

Most of the world's secular concepts are tolerant towards young people.

After all, who hasn’t been young?

What's more, if the plot really develops in this way, this matter will obviously be transformed into a private matter between the Nalan family and the Xiao family. Even if someone wants to gossip behind their back, others will say that this is their private matter and what does it have to do with you. Two young people are fooling around, but their elders are sensible. What's so funny?

The road of life is full of ups and downs.

Everyone falls down sometimes.

Maybe someone is covered in mud.

Some people were covered in dust.

But no one can guarantee that this person covered in dust will not fall in the future and get covered in mud like the person before him.

It's just like this when you take fifty steps and laugh at someone who has taken a hundred steps.

However, Nalan Jie did not do so.

From this, it can be seen that Nalan Jie actually acquiesced to this matter and to Nalan Yanran's behavior. He only scolded and criticized her, and did not come up with any remedial measures.

However, it is not accurate to say that all the mistakes were made by Nalan Yanran. Nalan Yanran's mistakes accounted for 40% of the total proportion, and the remaining 60% of the responsibility should be attributed to Yun Leng and others.

Yunling occupies thirty percent.

Kudzu leaves make up twenty percent.

Yun Yun and Yun Shan together account for ten percent.

If it is during the three-year agreement.

That is, after Xiao Yan defeated Nalan Yan.

Yun Leng did not have a seizure.

He wanted to use the Mo family incident to capture Xiao Yan.

To regain the lost face of Yunlan Sect.

Xiao Yan’s relationship with the Yunlan Sect actually ends here.

After all, Xiao Yan's broad mind is obvious to all.

From the moment he chose to burn the divorce letter.

Reject Nalan Yanran's promise.

Give myself and Nalan Yanran time to be free.

He has entered the mature stage.

Really grown up.

Merits are merits, faults are faults. He would not put the blame on the Yunlan Sect just because Nalan Yanran was the young master of the Yunlan Sect and because the Mo family had close ties with the Yunlan Sect. At most, the Yunlan Sect did not control its subordinates strictly. Moreover, the Mo family caught snakes and used them for experiments, which was just the Mo family's own doing. The Yunlan Sect did not know about it. Although the Yunlan Sect could not bear no responsibility for the Mo family's crimes, 99% of the responsibility was on the Mo family. There was no need to hold the Yunlan Sect accountable for the 1% responsibility.

However, Yun Ling, who is so smart, chose to bring up this matter of the Mo family in public, which is too contemptible both emotionally and logically.

To put it bluntly, if he really intended to investigate the matter of the Mo family being exterminated.

That is to say, it was the Yunlan Sect who ordered the Mohists to capture people for experiments.

Otherwise, the Yunlan Sect would not be qualified to help the Mo family take revenge.

So, did the Yunlan Sect instruct the Mohists to do this?

No!

What's the difference between this and smearing yourself?

It's totally brain-sick!

If he used this as an excuse to force Xiao Yan to stay, then he would be even more contemptible. As the Grand Elder of the Yunlan Sect, a dignified Dou Wang, facing a junior who was only at the level of a Grand Dou Master, he didn't even dare to say it openly. His attempt to cover up made his reputation only more obvious. He was self-righteous and was no different from a joke.

Said he took 30 percent of the responsibility.

It can only be higher, not lower.

of course.

If Nalan Yanran could speak after being defeated.

Shouted at the great elder Yun Leng.

Take the affairs of the Mohist school into your own hands.

Then the things that happened later would not have happened.

Therefore, Nalan Yanran also has a share of the blame.

Never mind that the Great Elder was in charge of the sect's internal affairs. Nalan Yanran didn't have that power. The young sect leader Xiaodie had once ordered Yun Leng, including Lin Chaoci. Facts had proved that Yun Leng also treated people differently based on their status. Nalan Yanran, the young sect leader, was fully qualified to shut Yun Leng up. At most, he could say in public that he would take all the responsibility, and all doubts from Yun Leng would be blocked. In that case, unless the sect leader Yun Yun came, even Yunshan would not be qualified to deny Nalan Yanran because of his status, although Yunshan could do things without following the rules.

In short, in this matter, Yun Leng’s responsibility may be more than 30%, but Nalan Yanran’s proportion of responsibility is definitely greater than Yun Leng’s.

As for the 20% of kudzu leaves, it is simply impossible to distinguish the primary from the secondary.

Nalan Yanran asked you to go with her to cancel the engagement, so you went.

So if Nalan Yanran asked you to eat shit, would you do it obediently?

You are from the Yunlan Sect!

He is the deacon and disciple of Yunlan Sect!

Not Nalan Yanran’s dog!

Not Yun Leng’s dog!

He is not Yun Yun and Yun Shan’s dog!

According to the system, although Nalan Yanran is one of the people you are responsible for, you have no right to refute the orders she issues, but the first thing you should do is to report to the sect leader. Only when the sect leader Yun Yun nods, it will be reasonable for you to follow Nalan Yanran to cancel the engagement.

Without this process, it will be difficult to distinguish between the big and small kings.

In addition, the Mohist school has been destroyed.

Even if you can judge from some phenomena that Xiao Yan is the mysterious Dou Huang, a smart person should discuss it with Nalan Yanran first. After all, you had already taken sides when you broke off the engagement and were on Nalan Yanran's side, but you insisted on telling Yun Leng about this. It can only be said that people like Ge Ye are either stupid or evil.

No matter which one it is.

It brought only negative impacts to the Yunlan Sect.

Then there are Yunshan and Yunyun, but this 10% is the upper limit, because their absence and non-presence are indeed coincidental.

Yunshan retreat.

Collude with the Soul Palace Guardians.

This matter has nothing to do with Xiao Yan.

Whether Xiao Yan, Nalan Yanran, or even Yun Yun were there, it would not affect his collusion with the Soul Palace Guardian. As for Yun Yun discovering the whereabouts of the Soul Palace Guardian on the way back to the sect, becoming suspicious, and following him to investigate, although it is logically reasonable, if she had paid more attention at the time and realized that a battle was taking place in the sect, and it was a battle between her good disciple Nalan Yanran and her former fiancé, and went back to take a look first, then Yun Leng would not have accused Xiao Yan later.

With Yun Yun's ability at that time.

It's easy to stop Yun Leng.

Unfortunately, there are no ifs in everything.

"No matter what, I still need to come back and stop this."

A small spacecraft emerged from the void.

Suspended in the air under the scorching sun.

Lin Chaoci looked around.

He sighed quietly.

Not far away, Xiaodie, holding a compass-like object, also came over. She looked at the desert below and said affirmatively, "Master, we have arrived at an unknown location in the Tagor Desert. If we continue north, we should be able to see the border of the Jiama Empire. We are not far from Yunlan Sect and Wutan City!"

"What are you waiting for?"

"Let's go!"

Lin Chaoci raised his eyebrows and waved forward.

Xiaodie smiled knowingly.

Fighting spirit surges.

The aura of the two-star Dou Wang spread out.

A bit of fighting spirit was then poured into the compass-shaped object in his hand.

The spacecraft was immediately urged to take off.

Shifted the angle.

Then, move forward in a straight line.

A few thin clouds parted.

Heading towards Yunlan Sect and Wutan City.
