02. Breaking the engagement contract

"Chen'er?".

Lu Chen suddenly walked in with a smile on his face. He did not look upset or angry at all the words from the man who was none other than the father of his ex-fiancee. The Lu Family and the Cha Family originally had a marriage bond, back then it was because Cha Yong wanted to marry Cha Yin to Lu Chen. It was because he saw the closeness and good nature of Cha Yin that Uncle Lu Chen, the current head of the Lu family, agreed to tie them up in an engagement.

But who would have thought that what Uncle Lu Chen expected did not match his expectations. The beloved niece who was cared for since childhood would be betrayed so cruelly, even that woman so cruelly eliminated the cultivation that Lu Chen had cultivated for almost seven years. Now seeing his nephew smiling as usual, made him feel a little relieved. But the nephew's joke instantly made him want to hit the unlucky nephew's head.

Lu Chen with an ordinary smile said, "Pamam, you're still alive apparently. I thought you were dead because you were too tired to play with some women last night!" Lu Chen really wasn't afraid of his uncle and he even dared to explode his uncle in front of all the elders in the clan. The clan leader could only hold back his emotions for now, he wanted Lu Chen to explain the matter at hand. Does he really want to cancel the engagement or not? Right now that was what they prioritized the most as he already didn't want to see people from the Cha family in his clan hall.

Lu Chen's former fiancée stepped forward and said, "If you agree, quickly hand over the city's engagement letter. After that we will no longer have a relationship!" Lu Chen who heard the word engagement letter laughed briefly then replied that there was no such letter and what was the meaning of engagement? He did not even consider Cha Yin as his own fiancee since what that woman did to him in the past.

With a bit of contempt, Lu Chen said that his relationship with that foolish woman was just a nonsense and if any foolish man saw this woman beautiful then he was more foolish than Lu Chen himself.

"You!"

"Ha...Never mind, I'm just joking, don't take it to heart. The engagement letter you want is now here" Lu Chen said as he took out a scroll from his storage bag.

Cha Yong took the scroll, but somehow when he opened the scroll a pungent odor spread in the hall. Even Cha Yong's hand touched something that made him immediately vomit in front of the hall. The pungent odor made all the elders and even Uncle Lu Chen cover their noses because it was too smelly.

"Uwek..uwek! What is this?".

"Eh? Why does it smell so bad? Hmm..Ah! I remember a few days ago because there was no sanitizer so I used it to clean my butt" Lu Chen casually spoke as if it was not his fault which made Cha Yin and Cha Yong very angry but they had touched the scroll so the smell stuck to their bodies.

"You..you!". Cha Yong tremblingly pointed at Lu Chen. Even though his hand had been hit by something strange that almost made him faint.

"Uncle, get out of here. You guys stink too much," said Lu Chen complaining about the smell of the two people. The two of them looked annoyed and walked out with the tainted scroll. With such a smell, they were forced to run quickly to get to their homes. Too bad they couldn't even hide their faces and it was discovered by the people in the green city that the two had touched something rotten. The horrendous news became the butt of jokes and insults for the people in the city, such a family would actually bring something so stinky home as if it was very important to them.

"Hahaha, boy, you're really cruel" said Lu Chen's Uncle Lu Jian. Lu Chen was just casually giving those ungrateful fools a lesson, so for him it wasn't a big deal to give a lesson what's more Lu Chen himself disliked the father and son who were too rotten. Lu Chen saw there was nothing more he needed to do excused himself and prepared to go out and sleep again at his usual resting place. Of course, his steps were immediately stopped by his uncle who showed a serious expression to Lu Chen.

Lu Jian spoke to his nephew, "Boy! Wait a moment. There's something that I and the other elders want to talk to you about" while restraining the nephew's hand that was trying to keep running away from him. Lu Chen realized that there was nothing good about this uncle of his if he had stopped himself with that strange expression.

"What? My leisurely life is precious, so uncle said very, very quickly."

"You...you...!"

"Yes..yes...?". Lu Chen and the others looked at Lu jian seriously. They were ready to listen to what Lu Jian was going to say, even Lu Chen was sure that his uncle wanted to say something serious to him at that moment but...

"You...you... Uncle accidentally made you participate in the battle between the younger generations that will be held in one month, how is it? Isn't it good? You're happy aren't you?" said Lu Jian while pretending to be cleaning his nose.

"Huek!"

Lu Chen and the other elders fell down after hearing Lu Jian's words. What they thought he was going to say turned out to be just a matter of the battle of the younger generation that the city lord was going to hold. Although it sounded just like a fight between young people but they all understood it was a fight to get into the blue palace sect, one of the great sects in the Yuan kingdom's territory that even the kingdom itself was subject to the sect. But the problem was that although the selection looked simple but after that there would be another selection that would be troublesome to happen. Where all the young geniuses of the Yuan kingdom would meet and fight again for the three best positions. Those three positions would go to the Blue Palace sect to do another test to determine whether they were worthy of being an outer or inner disciple in the sect.

"Wait! Me? Is uncle's brain not hurting? How could you do that to this weak me?" Lu Chen seriously asked as if hearing something wrong from his uncle's mouth. How could a disabled person participate in such a match? Isn't it tantamount to his own uncle leading him to his death? Moreover, the woman who was also the former fiancée participated in the match, Lu Chen was sure that he would definitely die at the hands of that woman if he participated.
