Volume One, Chapter 15: Breaking Off the Engagement Again!

Everyone quickly assured that they were just here to watch the excitement, and then they laughed it off and entered the auction house.

Soon, only Qin Feng and the others remained on site.

Bai Muya’s fiery eyes continued to fixate on them.

At first, Chen Tianyu was still stunned by Bai Muya’s beauty, but once he regained his senses, he recalled what had just happened.

If Bai Muya hadn’t suddenly appeared to stop him, this useless guy had really intended to make a move on him!

Who did this loser think he was?

Chen Tianyu’s eyes instantly bloodshot as he looked at Qin Feng. “Were you just about to hit me?”

“So what if I was?” Qin Feng replied calmly.

He didn’t feel there was anything wrong with admitting it.

Seeing Qin Feng’s indifference, Chen Tianyu’s anger flared even more. “Do you know who I am?”

“No,” Qin Feng answered honestly.

“You don’t know and yet you dare hit me?!”

Chen Tianyu could hardly believe it. “Since you don’t know, let me tell you! I’m Elder Chen from the Outer Gate Enforcement Hall, Chen Sheng’s son!”

How about that? Scared now?

Chen Tianyu looked at Qin Feng with pride.

Hearing the name, Qin Feng’s eyes narrowed slightly.

But it wasn’t fear; rather, he suddenly recalled something. Why did the name Chen Sheng sound so familiar?

Before he could act further, Bai Muya’s voice broke through.

“Qin Feng, I don’t care what grudge you have between you two, but now that you’re here, isn’t it about our marriage? Shouldn’t we talk?” Bai Muya’s tone was flat, devoid of any emotion.

Chen Tianyu’s composure instantly shattered upon hearing this.

“What did you say, fairy? You’re actually involved with this loser...” His eyes betrayed unmistakable jealousy. Why did this useless man have so many admirers when someone as outstanding as himself could only attract undesirable women?

Seeing him linger there, Bai Muya frowned. “Sir, the auction is about to begin. Aren’t you going in?”

The implication was clear: it was time to send him off. Chen Tianyu didn’t want to leave.

Qin Feng seized the moment. “Miss, whether or not you’re my fiancée, the auction is about to start. Whatever you want to say can wait until it’s over.”

After all, judging by her demeanor, she didn’t seem like someone who would come to fulfill the engagement. There was no need to waste more time on her.

“Stop right there!”

Seeing Qin Feng ignore her, Bai Muya’s eyes blazed with fury. “I won’t keep you long, and with me here, are you afraid you won’t be able to attend the auction?”

Qin Feng’s steps halted—not because of her words, but because of the people blocking his way.

Chen Tianyu watched this scene, wishing he could kill Qin Feng with his gaze. Why was this loser so lucky?

And himself...

“Master, what are you doing? Let’s go...” A subordinate tugged at Chen Tianyu, nervously eyeing the swordsmen drawn beside Bai Muya.

Seeing this, no matter how reluctant, Chen Tianyu had no choice but to leave.

Even as he departed, he didn’t forget to threaten Qin Feng: someday, I will kill you with my own hands!

Qin Feng, held back, looked at Bai Muya impatiently. “Now that no one else is here, if you have something to say, say it.”

Seeing he truly didn’t care, even calling her "big sister," Bai Muya flushed with anger. “I say, you... you really are...”

“Forget it. Since you don’t care, I’ll be straightforward: I want to break off our engagement!” Bai Muya declared resolutely.

Ah—just saying it felt much better.

Qin Feng: “Oh?”

“Oh? What’s with that ‘oh’? I say I want to break off our engagement, and that’s your reaction?” Bai Muya had been expecting a reaction, but he was so calm.

How could that be?

It made her feel all the mental preparations she’d made were for nothing.

“What else would I say, Miss Bai? You already said you want to break it off. What more do you want me to say?”

“Want me to beg you to stay engaged?” Qin Feng teased. Bai Muya stiffened.

“That’s not what I meant.”

“I don’t care what you mean. Since you want to break off the engagement, bring the marriage contract. I’ll tear it up right now.” With that, Qin Feng pulled out her half of the contract from his storage pouch.

After what happened with Ye Qingxue last time, he had to make sure her half of the contract was destroyed by him as well.

Bai Muya had been considering breaking off the engagement, so naturally, she carried the marriage contract.

Seeing her take it out, Qin Feng didn’t wait for her reaction and snatched it away, tearing it into pieces in an instant, then set it on fire.

“Done.”

Having finished, Qin Feng turned and left without a trace of reluctance.

Bai Muya was still stunned. Was this really the end of their engagement?

“Hey, wait!”

Seeing Qin Feng’s figure almost disappearing, she hurried after him.

Qin Feng turned, a cold gleam flashing in his eyes. “What is it?”

Could she still be unwilling to accept the break-up?

Did she want to humiliate him further?

Bai Muya hadn’t expected such a look from him and stopped instinctively, then seemed to realize something. “Well, I was wrong to suddenly break off the engagement today.”

“But this is something I’ve thought about carefully. How about this: as compensation, I won’t make you pay a single spirit stone for anything you buy at the auction today. How about that?”

By the end, Bai Muya barely knew what she was saying.

Qin Feng looked at her with a strange expression.

Those nearby couldn’t help but want to remind her, “Miss, you said all...”

Even if she was the auction house’s heiress, that was too much.

Their reminder seemed to bring Bai Muya back to her senses. “Ah, I misspoke. I meant within a thousand spirit stones, pick whatever you want!”

Those around her sighed with relief.

Qin Feng, however, gave her a strange look. “No need.”

Without hesitation, he left.

The auction began soon after.

Qin Feng didn’t care at all about what had just happened.

Today, the auction was organized by a female immortal with a perfect figure and a Ling Gathering Mirror, but Qin Feng’s gaze remained fixed on the auction items from start to finish.

First came some simple medicinal pills and treasures to warm up the crowd.

Then, a selection of low-grade magical treasures followed.

“Ladies and gentlemen, please look. Next, we present a masterpiece by our best array master here, Master Lian.”

“This is a mid-grade profound array. It can be controlled effortlessly with just a Ling Gathering Mirror and can trap anyone or beast whose Qi Sea is below the seventh level.”
