As soon as these words came out, the Ye Clan Leader also had the same idea.
Such a large family would always prioritize profit.
In the past, Ye Shaohua had an outstanding Water Spirit Root, so those clan leaders would still care about Ye Shaohua. Now that Ye Shaohua's Spirit Root was destroyed, thinking about it, Xuanyuan Che would not really become dao companions with Ye Shaohua.
"That's right. Let's just forget about this matter. When the people from the Xuanyuan Family arrive tomorrow, we'll bring up this matter first. That way, we'll be able to gain some face." The Great Elder made the final decision.
If they broke off the engagement in private, they could pretend that nothing had happened.
After all, Ye Father and Ye Mother also felt that there was no way for Ye Shaohua to become a dao companion with an immortal.
But today, Xuanyuan Che had come to cancel the engagement with great fanfare.
Not only did the Ye Family know about it, even the majority of the people in the city knew that Xuanyuan Che wanted to break off the engagement with Ye Shaohua.
He didn't think about Ye Shaohua at all, as if he deliberately wanted everyone to know about this matter.
How will Ye family and Ye Shaohua face other people in the future? Won't they become the laughing stock of the whole city?
"But …" Mother Ye's face changed when she heard the elder's words.
If it was really decided, then Ye Shaohua's position in the family would be somewhat awkward.
She didn't want the Xuanyuan family to make such a big deal out of it. It was enough for the two families to talk about it privately. After all, it was the Xuanyuan family who wanted to get engaged to the Ye family first.
They were the ones who got engaged, and they would also be the ones who broke off the engagement.
What did she take her daughter for?
"But what?" The elder looked at Ye Mu coldly. "Isn't it shameful enough? The Xuanyuan Clan has already come to talk about this matter, yet you still refuse to let it go. Are you trying to fall out with the Xuanyuan Clan? In the end, what you snatched is not yours. I hope you can see it clearly. "
The Great Elder's position in the clan was not low. He was also the highest ranked cultivator in the clan, the ninth stage of Qi Cultivating. He was only one step away from becoming a Foundation Establishment cultivator.
And Qi Condensation and Foundation Establishment were a hurdle.
Upon reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, one's lifespan could be extended to two hundred years.
However, in this world, those who could reach the Foundation Establishment stage were all inner sect disciples of sects.
After all, in order to reach Foundation Building, one needed a Foundation Building Pill, and Foundation Building Pills were extremely rare. Not to mention the fact that the ingredients were hard to find, even if they were found, it would be extremely difficult to concoct a Foundation Building Pill.
Even the Heaven Yuan Sect, which was proficient in alchemy, had less than 50% chance of successfully refining a Building Foundation Pill. In other words, refining a Building Foundation Pill would require at least two sets of medicinal herbs for the Building Foundation Pill.
Because of this, when an ordinary person reaches the ninth rank of Qi Cultivating, they can do whatever they want in the world of ordinary people.
Although the Great Elder was in seclusion all year round, he still had some understanding of what had happened in the past.
He knew that Ye Shaohua, a junior, had no idea why her spiritual root had been destroyed. It was a pity, but fortunately, Ye Yuan, a junior, had suddenly risen.
This comforted him somewhat.
So when he heard what Ye Mu said, he scolded Ye Mu.
However, his words were a bit harsh. The surrounding Ye Clan members couldn't help but sneer.
"What are you laughing at? Why don't you hurry back and do your own things? "The Great Elder's gaze swept across these people. When he saw the people behind Ye Yuan, his expression softened a little.
They didn't dare to disobey the Great Elder's order, so they all slipped away.
When Ye Mu saw these people leave, she opened her mouth and just wanted to say something.
She was interrupted by Ye Shaohua. "Great Elder, I also think I'm not suitable for the Xuanyuan family. Let's forget about this matter."
She looked at the Great Elder and smiled.
This Great Elder was already more than a hundred years old. He was very concerned about the growth of the younger generation of Ye Clan. However, he was not so biased. Before, because of the talent of the original owner, he also spent a lot of effort to guide the original owner.
Therefore, although the original owner's spiritual root was now ruined, he still paid attention to the original owner.
Just saying this sentence, the decision he made was not wrong.
"It's good that you understand," the Great Elder looked at this junior, and a trace of pity flashed between his eyebrows. "Go back. Immortal cultivators don't just cultivate spiritual roots. They can also take the road of body cultivation."
"I know, Elder." Ye Shaohua nodded at him.
She turned around and helped her mother go back.
"Shaohua …" Ye Mu looked at Ye Shaohua like this, wanting to say something but hesitating.
"It's okay. My spiritual root is destroyed. This is a fact." Ye Shaohua shrugged indifferently.
Ye Mu looked at her resigned appearance and couldn't help but sigh, "I've wronged you."
Ye Shaohua smiled. Wronged? This kind of thing was not enough. She had always believed that the road of the strong was very difficult. In fact, if the original owner's mentality did not collapse, she would go on well.
She may not be unable to rely on herself to walk a broader road.
However, Ye Mu did not know her daughter's current thoughts.
The next day.
As expected, the people of the Xuanyuan family came again.
However, this time it was the City Lord, Xuanyuan Che's father.
"Che 'er, are you sure you want to break the engagement with Shaohua?" When entering the Ye Clan, City Lord Xuanyuan glanced at Xuanyuan Che.
Xuanyuan Che was very firm, "That's right, father. I hope that after the engagement is broken, you can propose to Ye Clan."
"That Ye Yuan?" City Lord Xuanyuan looked at Xuanyuan Che blankly, "Why do you want to do this?"
"I think Yuan 'er agreed to let her become my wife in an open and aboveboard manner." Xuanyuan Che said.
"You …" City Lord Xuanyuan looked at his son and didn't know what to say. He just gave him a deep look and said, "I will help you break off the engagement. However, I don't have the face to break off the engagement and propose marriage."
After saying that, he directly walked towards Ye Clan.
When he saw that the powerful Great Elder of Ye Clan who was in seclusion also came out, his spirit was shaken.
And Xuanyuan Che also saw the Great Elder.
Remembering what Ye Yuan said before about the Great Elder's preference for Ye Shaohua, he frowned. Even if Ye Shaohua begged the Great Elder to come and intercede, he would not compromise on this matter.
"Xuanyuan brat, I have discussed the matter of breaking the engagement with Shaohua. She also feels that she is not suitable for your family." The Great Elder directly took out the engagement jade pendant that Ye Shaohua gave him and handed it to City Lord Xuanyuan.
Xuanyuan Che, who was ready to speak unyieldingly, looked at everything in a daze. From beginning to end, Ye Shaohua did not appear.
Only an engagement jade pendant appeared.
He took the jade pendant.
When he was about to leave, he finally came back to his senses. "Wait, Great Elder, I have one more thing to do today. I want to propose marriage to Ye Yuan."
This sentence, as if dropped a bomb in Ye Clan.
Everyone's eyes noticed that Patriarch Ye's face suddenly became very stiff.
Not to mention Patriarch Ye, even the Great Elder's face became very bad.
Xuanyuan Che didn't see it, but looked at Ye Yuan's father and said respectfully, "Uncle Ye, I don't know if it's possible?"
