The System Granted Me Invincibility, Setting Me on the Path to Becoming the Heavenly Emperor

2: I’m not even qualified to be your maid.Liu Mu, the head of the Liu Family, stepped forward, followed by a group of Liu Family members, with Liu Xu and Lu Zhao trailing closely behind.

Head of the Qin Family Qin Cang immediately greeted them with a smile, extending both hands for a handshake.

Although the Liu Family was far inferior to the Qin Family, they were about to become in-laws and could provide some support; appearances still had to be maintained.

Liu Mu raised a hand, interrupting Qin Cang’s enthusiasm, and spoke slowly, ”Head of the Qin Family, Liu has something to tell you upon this visit to the Qin Family. I hope you will forgive me.”

Meanwhile, Qin Gelan, who was drinking by himself to the side, sneered inwardly.

Is it starting?

Standing beside him was a spirited young girl named Qing Luo, about fifteen or sixteen years old. She had followed Qin Gelan since childhood and was his maidservant.

Qing Luo looked at Qin Gelan with an anxious expression on her small face.

Today was the wedding day. It should have been her young master’s wedding, yet he hadn’t even changed his clothes, and the auspicious hour was fast approaching.

However, seeing that Liu Xu beside Liu Mu hadn’t changed into her wedding dress either, she thought to herself: Are the children of great families always this casual... ”Haha, if my in-law has something to say, please feel free,” Qin Cang said with a chuckle.

Liu Mu cupped his hands and said flatly, ”Head of the Qin Family, please forgive me, but regarding my daughter’s marriage, I believe it still needs to be discussed.”

”But rest assured, Head of the Qin Family, the Liu Family will return the betrothal gifts in full and is willing to offer compensation.”

*Uproar!*

Not only Qin Cang, but even the representatives of various major powers broke into an uproar. Calling off a wedding on the wedding day?

Moreover, many factions had come today; wasn’t this a slap in the face for the Qin Family?

”This Liu Family is quite bold.”

”The Qin Family’s strength is far above the Liu Family’s. Isn’t the Liu Family afraid of offending them?”

”There’s a good show to watch. Let’s see how the Qin Family handles this; this is a direct insult to their face.”

Everyone whispered among themselves, looking at the Liu Family members, unable to understand what they were up to.

Becoming in-laws with the Qin Family was something many factions dreamed of.

To put it bluntly, the Liu Family was climbing the social ladder; not only were they ungrateful, but they were also publicly insulting the Qin Family.

After hearing this, Qin Cang’s expression darkened, and he narrowed his eyes. ”Is this the Liu Family’s intention?”

A mere Liu Family dares to do this?

Do they really think the Qin Family rose to power through kindness?

Seeing Qin Cang’s face turn cold, Liu Mu felt a bit apprehensive and couldn’t help but look at Lu Zhao.

Only the Heavenly Evolution Holy Land behind Lu Zhao could suppress the Qin Family.

Besides, he had already promised him before coming that the Qin Family would be dealt with by him.

Qin Cang also looked at Lu Zhao. At such a young age, he actually had a cultivation at the Peak True Immortal Realm; his background must be extraordinary.

Lu Zhao stepped forward slowly and said with a smile, ”Lu Zhao greets the Head of the Qin Family.”

”Lu Zhao?”

”The Saint of the Heavenly Evolution Holy Land!”

”Why is he here?”

”Could the Liu Family’s backing be the Heavenly Evolution Holy Land?”

The Heavenly Evolution Holy Land was a power with Immortal Emperor Realm experts overseeing it, far beyond what the Qin Family could compare to. The strongest in the Qin Family was only at the Peak Immortal Venerable Realm.

The younger generation from various factions let out cries of surprise.

Lu Zhao was very famous among the younger generation. Not yet fifty years old, he was already about to achieve a Breakthrough to the Golden Immortal Realm.

He has the potential of a Great Emperor!

”Marriage should be a matter of mutual affection. Since Miss Liu is unwilling, I hope the Head of the Qin Family will not force it,” Lu Zhao chuckled.

”Good, very good. If you, Liu Mu, hadn’t begged my Qin Family back then, did you really think your daughter was worthy of my son?” Qin Cang was also incensed.

Back then, Liu Mu had humbly begged for an alliance through marriage with the Qin Family. Qin Cang had originally been unwilling.

Although his son’s talent was poor, he wasn’t someone a mere Liu Family could hope to reach.

However, many years ago, the Old Ancestor owed the Liu Family’s Old Ancestor a favor, which led to this marriage alliance.

Liu Mu remained unmoved. With Lu Zhao backing him, he had become bold. ”My daughter has someone she loves, and I cannot force her. Besides, children have their own fortunes.”

The person she loves?

Is it this Lu Zhao?

Lu Zhao didn’t shy away either, smiling faintly. ”Miss Liu and I have long been enamored with each other. I hope the Head of the Qin Family will not force the issue.”

Qin Cang looked at Lu Zhao calmly. Even if he was the Saint of the Heavenly Evolution Holy Land, this was the Qin Family.

Such a humiliating insult was naturally something the Head of the Qin Family could not swallow.

A powerful aura erupted from within Qin Cang, and the pressure of an Immortal Venerable enveloped the entire Qin Family.

All the factions were terrified. Liu Mu and Liu Xu’s expressions also changed drastically. Did Qin Cang really dare to move against Lu Zhao?

Oppressed by the Immortal Venerable’s aura, Lu Zhao felt as if Mount Tai were pressing down on him, and his expression turned unsightly.

If Qin Cang wanted to take his life, a single wave of Immortal Venerable pressure could crush him.

Just as Lu Zhao was about to be forced to his knees, an Immortal Venerable’s aura blocked Qin Cang, and an old man appeared beside Lu Zhao.

”Old Chen.”

Seeing the old man appear, Lu Zhao breathed a sigh of relief as that suffocating aura receded.

An Elder of the Heavenly Evolution Holy Land, an expert in the Immortal Venerable Realm.

Qin Cang and the various Elders of the Qin Family also looked at the old man warily.

Seeing the Elder of the Heavenly Evolution Holy Land appear, Liu Mu cupped his hands. With a powerhouse from the Heavenly Evolution Holy Land present, there was nothing to fear from the Qin Family.

”Tsk, how lively.” Qin Gelan walked over slowly with his hands behind his back.

Everyone looked at Qin Gelan. He was today’s protagonist, but an accident had occurred—the person he was supposed to marry was running off with someone else.

”Father.”

Qin Cang nodded. Today’s matter had become tricky; the Heavenly Evolution Holy Land possessed Immortal Emperor powerhouses.

”You are Qin Gelan? You aren’t worthy of Miss Liu. I hope you have some self-awareness.” Lu Zhao looked at Qin Gelan with disdain.

Qin Gelan ignored him. He was here to show off today; Liu Xu wasn’t important, just a clown.

He turned his head toward Liu Xu, smiled slightly, and asked, ”Is this your intention as well?”

Liu Xu looked at Lu Zhao. Qin Gelan was far inferior to him. She spoke, ”I hope Young Master Qin will fulfill my wish.”

Lu Zhao smiled contemptuously. A piece of trash dared to compete with him for a woman.

”I thought it was some big deal. Fine, fine, this young master agrees,” Qin Gelan laughed.

Everyone looked at Qin Gelan with some disdain in their eyes. They hadn’t expected the son of the dignified Qin Cang to be such a coward.

Even Qin Cang sighed inwardly. Let alone Qin Gelan, even he felt some pressure from the Heavenly Evolution Holy Land, so he couldn’t blame Qin Gelan.

Liu Xu was slightly stunned. She hadn’t expected Qin Gelan to agree so easily.

Lu Zhao sneered inwardly. Facing the Heavenly Evolution Holy Land, you, Qin Gelan, have to agree whether you want to or not.

”In that case, thank you, Young Master Qin...” Liu Xu bowed slightly.

”Don’t be in such a hurry to thank me. I’ve agreed to this matter, but... here, you, come closer.” Qin Gelan beckoned Liu Xu to approach.

You want to just leave it at that? Heh, do you think I’m playing house with you?

Liu Xu hesitated for a moment. The matter had to be faced eventually, so she stepped forward slowly.

Lu Zhao frowned. Liu Xu was now his designated woman; he didn’t believe Qin Gelan would dare to lay a hand on her.

Besides, Liu Xu had already reached the Peak Divine Palace Realm; Qin Gelan was no match for her.

Qin Cang frowned at his son’s strange behavior but didn’t stop him.

”You want to call off the engagement, and I agree. But today the Qin Family has been humiliated; your Liu Family has essentially slapped the Qin Family’s face,” Qin Gelan said with a cold expression as he looked at Liu Xu.

”How do you think the Qin Family should respond?”

Looking at Qin Gelan’s cold face, Liu Xu felt inexplicably chilled.

Clearly, she was stronger than him, so why did she feel this way?

”Young Master Qin, the Liu Family is willing...”

*Slap!*

A sudden slap landed on Liu Xu’s face, sending her flying over a dozen meters away.

She spat out a mouthful of blood, and a fiery red handprint on her face was extremely conspicuous.

”The Qin Family can eat anything, but we don’t eat losses.”

”Father, you really are something. Why did you find someone so ugly? She’s not even qualified to be my maidservant.”
