Blue Moon Continent, Ming Kingdom, Tianfeng City, Bluestone Village.

Han Yan's forehead was filled with sweat, and some pain was carried on his face, but he still continued to punch and kick, hitting Han Yan extremely seriously.

Under the sunlight, a dozen or so youths were practicing their fist and foot techniques in a courtyard at the entrance of the village. All of them were hoping to be able to use a technique in the future.

"Han Yan, you are the only one in our village who has the qualifications to participate in the Tianming Sect's assessment. In a few days, you will probably become an immortal. A thirteen-fourteen year old teenager smiled at Han Yan, and a look of envy appeared on his face.

Fifteen years ago, the Light Sect suffered a decline in Immortal karma, and the children born that year were eligible for the exam. However, one year later, the Light Sect had no more Immortal karma, so for the next fifteen years, no one in Tianfeng City was eligible to take the exam.

One must know that the Tianming Sect is the Orthodoxy of the Ming Kingdom. Once you enter the Tianming Sect, you will be an immortal above the ninth heaven.

"Tch, there are tens of thousands of people who qualify for the exam. Even if we were born a year or two too late and missed the chance to be born into the Immortal World, we would still have the right to take the exam if we did."

Even if he was unable to enter Tianming Sect, he had a beautiful and virtuous fianc?e, one who was calm enough to lead a blissful life.

At this moment, the anxious sounds of someone knocking on the door came from outside the courtyard, and the sound grew louder and louder.

All the youths stopped what they were doing and turned to look at the gate.

With a creaking sound, the door opened, and a woman with a pink umbrella appeared in his line of sight.

Seeing the woman, Han Yan was slightly taken aback, and said: "Xi Han, why have you come?"

Liu Xihan looked like she was only fourteen or fifteen, but her delicate face was definitely destined to be exceptionally beautiful. She also had another identity, and that was Han Yan's fianc?. It was always early for villagers to get married, and normally they would be married at around fifteen or sixteen years old. It was the same for Han Yan, who had already arranged for this marriage two years ago.

"Han Yan." Liu Xihan had a strange expression on her face as she softly asked, "Do you have time? I want to say a few words to you. "

Han Yan's heart thumped, as an ominous premonition arose within him. "What's wrong?"

Liu Xihan opened his mouth, but he did not know how to begin. After a while, she took a deep breath, as though she had mustered all of her courage, and said softly: "Han Yan, let's end this here!"

These ordinary words, when heard by Han Yan, were like thunder from a clear sky.

Han Yan was unable to accept this fact and quickly asked: "Why?"

After Liu Xihan said those words, she seemed to have let go of her hold. She didn't dare look straight into Han Yan's eyes, and turned her back to him as she continued: "The two of us really aren't suitable for each other. I also know your family's situation, and can't give me the life I want!"

Han Yan's mouth gaped open, he was silent for a moment, then said: "I'm going to take the Tianming Sect exam, if I do, I'll become an immortal. At that time, you'll be able to enjoy endless wealth and glory ?"

Liu Xihan laughed self-deprecatingly and said, "Immortal ? You shouldn't be too naive. That year, more than ten million people had the qualification to take the examination, but the number of people who can actually enter the Immortal Gate are probably very few. Furthermore, even if there really is someone who can pass the examination to the Tianming Sect, it will definitely not be you ? "

After a moment of silence, she continued, "Also, a noble person in the capital has taken a fancy to me, and the carriage is waiting for me outside the door. From now on, our fates will no longer intersect, so please don't disturb my life anymore, I hope you can be happy."

She turned around, a jade pendant in her hand.

It was an inconspicuous jade pendant, and carved on it were some strange patterns. Han Yan had picked up the jade pendant more than ten years ago in the mountains. He had always liked it, but after getting engaged with Liu Xihan, he gave it to her.

Han Yan did not accept the jade pendant. Taking a deep breath, he took a step forward and pressed both hands on Liu Xihan's shoulders, then looked deeply at the woman who she deeply loved, and asked: "Are we really done for?"

Seeing Han Yan's loving eyes, Liu Xihan hesitated for a moment. Then, as if he thought of something, he used all his strength to break free from Han Yan's hands and ran out of the courtyard.

With a clatter, the jade pendant fell onto the ground. It was as if only this sound was left between heaven and earth, and Han Yan's world also crumbled the moment the pendant fell.

Han Yan saw that the eyes of the other youths in the courtyard were filled with sympathy as they stared at him.

Picking up the jade pendant, Han Yan ran out of the courtyard. He didn't believe that this relationship, this marriage contract, had ended in just such a simple sentence.

The other youngsters also ran out behind him.

Just as he ran out of the courtyard door, Han Yan saw Liu Xihan get into a carriage, while on both sides of the carriage, stood two squads of guards.

When the sunlight shone onto the long sword at the soldier's waist, it emitted a cold light. Han Yan hesitated for a moment, then shouted towards the carriage: "Xi Han, this jade pendant is for you.

The sound echoed around the village entrance, but there was no movement from the carriage. Immediately, a general in armor came back from the front of the carriage.

This general was around thirty years old, strong and burly, with a nine foot long silver spear in his hand, mighty and extraordinary, he then walked over to Han Yan and coldly said: "I advise you to not delay Madam's journey."

Facing this extraordinary looking general, Han Yan was not one bit afraid, and said: "General, the carriage is my friend, I want to return the things to her."

The general's face sank as he shouted into the carriage, "Madam, is this person your friend?"

After a long while, Liu Xihan's voice came out from the carriage, "General, I don't know him, let him go!"

Hearing that, the general pointed the silver spear in his hand at Han Yan and said sinisterly: "Scram, otherwise, this general will not be courteous anymore."

Han Yan did not leave and rushed towards the carriage and shouted: "Xi Han, are you really so heartless?"

The person in the carriage did not reply, as if he did not want to talk to Han Yan anymore.

The general did not waste his breath, he raised the silver spear in his hand and pierced it towards Han Yan.

The speed of the spear was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, it had arrived in front of Han Yan. Han Yan's feet moved, and he dodged to the side in a panic. Although he dodged the vital parts of the spear, it still hit his shoulder.

Immediately, fresh blood flew out, and the sound of bones breaking came out from Han Yan's body.

Seeing that he could not stab Han Yan to death, the general frowned slightly. With both of his hands, he shouted, "Die!"

At this moment, an enormous amount of internal energy followed the silver spear into Han Yan's body. Like a cannonball, his body heavily fell thirty meters away.

The moment he fell, Han Yan spat out a mouthful of blood and his consciousness became blurry. He muttered: "Liu Xihan, I really didn't think that you would actually treat me like this!"

The general's face changed, just as he was about to ride his horse to kill Han Yan, Liu Xihan came down from the horse carriage and said, "General, wait a moment."

"Madam!" "He has just insulted you, and this life does not belong to him."

Seeing Han Yan's whole body covered in blood, Liu Xihan could not bear to look back. However, he had already walked down this road, and there was no possibility of turning back anymore.

In the two years she had been together with Han Yan, although she had received nothing in material terms, she could still be considered happy.

However, what was that relationship worth compared to wealth and prosperity?

Therefore, Liu Xihan waved his hand and said to the general: "Since he's already injured to this extent, just let him go!"

The general snorted, "If he can take my palm and survive, then I, the general, will let him go!"

After he finished speaking, he raised his left hand and shouted, "Great Palm Imprint!"

A translucent palm flew out from his left hand, straight towards Han Yan's chest.

With a pa da sound, his palm landed on Han Yan's chest, and Han Yan's body flew up once again, landing heavily on the ground.

Han Yan was already severely injured, so after bearing this palm, he fainted on the spot.

In the instant he fainted, Han Yan heard Liu Xihan's voice faintly, "Let's go!"

In the sky, another bolt of lightning struck down and a drizzle began to fall. Rain fell on Han Yan's body. His consciousness was sometimes clear, sometimes blurry, and faintly felt that someone was holding him up. The sound grew farther and farther away from him, more and more indistinct, until at last nothing could be heard.
