NOVEL WEB Chapter 2 Transmigrated Protagonist with Trash Flow Template Fiancée
At the same time, in the back courtyard of the Su family residence in Xuejing City.
The environment here was extremely serene, with a few green bamboo plants.
An arched bridge lay across the flowing water, and there was a small pond beside it, with blooming lotus flowers.
A tall and slender woman in white was slowly practicing swordsmanship in the courtyard.
Her movements were slow and gentle, but they carried an undeniable sword intent.
The buzzing of the sword seemed capable of piercing through anything.
She had a beautiful and flawless face, with exquisite features and long, silky black hair cascading down her back.
Her expression was cold, making her appear otherworldly and distant, like a fairy untainted by the mortal world.
She was the third young lady of the Su family, Su Mingyue.
“Miss, miss! I heard that people from the hidden immortal clan, the Jiang family, have arrived in Xuejing City. They are coming towards our Su family.”
“The head of the family asked me to call you. You should go to the main hall quickly.”
“It seems that the one you were engaged to is also here…”
At this moment, a maid hurriedly ran over with a panicked look on her face.
When she mentioned the hidden immortal clan, the Jiang family, her eyes were filled with reverence and excitement, which made her appear flustered.
For ordinary cultivators, the hidden immortal clan was a colossal entity standing at the peak of this world.
They could only occasionally hear some news and rumors, never having the chance to see them in person.
But today, the hidden immortal clan had actually descended upon Xuejing City and was heading towards the Su residence, causing a huge commotion.
“The people from the hidden immortal clan?”
Su Mingyue put down the long sword in her hand upon hearing this.
Her cold and beautiful face showed little change in expression.
It seemed that hearing this news didn’t matter much to her.
“Yes, miss. You should go and take a look. After all, your fiancé has traveled countless miles to come here personally.”
“That’s the young master of the hidden immortal clan, who has been praised as having true immortal potential since childhood. His power is unrivaled, overwhelming his peers, and he is destined to lead the entire hidden immortal clan in the future.”
The maid’s face was filled with excitement and incessant chatter.
However, Su Mingyue lightly shook her head and softly said,
“I have now lost all my cultivation and become a cripple. This is a well-known fact. I am no longer the saintess of the Butian God Sect.”
“Shuang’er, do you think the hidden immortal clan would still agree to let their young master be engaged to me?”
“Moreover, how could such a person take a fancy to me in my current state? I think the hidden immortal clan came here today to cancel the engagement.”
Her tone was very calm, without any hint of resentment or grievance.
She simply stated this fact clearly and plainly.
Upon hearing this, the maid named Shuang’er was stunned.
She didn’t expect her usually proud young lady to say such self-aware words.
For a moment, her nose felt a bit sour.
“But miss, you were once the saintess of the Butian God Sect, with an extremely noble and transcendent status, even now…”
“I was able to join the Butian God Sect all thanks to my master. The engagement with the young master of the hidden immortal clan was also arranged by my master.”
“Now that she has entered a forbidden area with her fate unknown, and I have lost all my cultivation, how could the hidden immortal clan care about someone as insignificant as me?”
Su Mingyue interrupted her, her beautiful and serene face still very calm.
Although it was a cruel reality, it was indeed a true reflection of this world.
Once, she was highly talented and favored by the hidden immortal clan, who believed she had the potential to lead the Butian God Sect in the future.
Only then did they agree to her engagement with the young master of the hidden immortal clan.
But now… she had nothing left.
How could she be worthy?
“But miss, I heard that the young master of the hidden immortal clan is gentle and kind, with a good reputation. Could it be that you have a misunderstanding about him?”
Maid Shuang’er was still a bit unwilling to give up, holding onto a sliver of hope.
Su Mingyue smiled and gently pinched her nose, saying, “Rumors are often unreliable. Seeing is believing. The major Daoist sects and families do spread these rumors to build a good reputation.”
“But you must understand, two people from different worlds will never have a fair chance.”
“How could a true dragon be friends with an ant?”
If it were three years ago, when she was still the saintess of the Butian God Sect,
She certainly wouldn’t have been as magnanimous and composed as she was now.
However, in these three years, she had seen much of the world’s coldness and warmth, and the fickleness of human nature, which had made her mental state stronger than ever.
“Let’s go. Let’s meet my rumored fiancé…”
“I haven’t even seen his true face since the engagement was arranged. He was even extremely resistant to it.”
Su Mingyue’s lips curved into a self-deprecating smile.
With that, she walked out of the courtyard. No matter what, what should come will come.
She had faced all kinds of humiliation and cold stares over the past three years. Being rejected from an engagement was something she could face calmly.
Now she was just curious about what her fiancé, whom she had never met, was like.
At this moment, the atmosphere in the Su family’s main hall was heavy.
All the elders of the Su family were present, and the outside was surrounded by numerous family members, making it impenetrable.
Several beasts with gleaming scales and divine radiance were exhaling clouds and mist outside the hall, pulled by dozens of knights.
Just a wisp of their aura made the Su family members’ hearts tremble with fear.
It was their first time encountering such a colossal entity as the hidden immortal clan.
Everyone’s faces were pale, and even the elders were trembling with extreme unease.
Who could have imagined that the hidden immortal clan would personally visit the Su family today?
That extraordinary young man, who looked like a fallen immortal, was the young master of the Jiang family.
His identity alone was enough to frighten people to death.
“I’ve already instructed the maid to call Mingyue over. I hope you won’t mind the wait, sir,” the Su family head said, his forehead covered in cold sweat, carefully accompanying them.
“No worries. We can wait a little longer. You don’t need to be concerned. Our Jiang family has been around for a long time and has enough patience,” said an old man in his sixties or seventies, his hunched figure trying to appear kind.
However, despite his words, the Su family members were still trembling with fear, feeling that any of these knights could easily destroy Xuejing City.
The Su family head had a wry smile on his face, cautiously glancing at Jiang Minghan, who was calmly sipping tea at the head seat.
He could guess the purpose of the Jiang family’s visit, but how could he dare to say no?
If it weren’t for Su Mingyue’s master’s connections, a small family like theirs couldn’t have entered the hidden immortal clan’s sight.
The young master of the Jiang family personally coming to cancel the engagement was already giving the Su family a huge face.
At this moment, there was a commotion and the sound of footsteps outside the hall.
As the person involved, Su Mingyue finally arrived.
