Chapter 226: Sweet Honey Ashes Like Frost 47
In the room, Luo Lin and Runyu sat opposite each other.

There was a chessboard between the two of them. Luo Lin and Runyu each held a piece and were fighting fiercely on the board.

Luo Lin placed a white piece and looked at the young man opposite him. He had handsome features and a cool demeanor. He could be described as a gentle young man with a clear mind and a kind heart. A hint of admiration flashed across his eyes.

This Night God is actually stronger than the Fire God. Although his father doesn't love him and he doesn't know his mother's existence, he looks very good and has none of Taiwei and Tu Yao's shortcomings, which is extremely rare.

While looking around, Luo Lin placed another chess piece and asked Runyu calmly, "Do you want to cancel this engagement?"

Facing Luo Lin, Runyu calmly placed a chess piece on the chessboard, and then answered politely: "Junior does want to cancel this marriage, and I hope the Water God will agree. If the Water God has any conditions, Runyu is willing to compensate."

Luo Lin asked seriously, "Do you look down on my Mi'er?"

He stopped smiling and looked at Runyu with a serious and cold expression. If it were an ordinary person, he might be scared, but Runyu was not an ordinary person. How could he be scared by the cold face of the Water God?

Runyu paused for a moment as he picked up the chess piece, and smiled faintly, "Fairy Jinmi is very good, she is very thoughtful, kind and innocent, but Runyu has someone else in his heart, and there will only be her in his eyes and heart in this life, there will never be another person he loves. Fairy Jinmi is an excellent woman, and there will naturally be better men to match her, and Runyu is not the right person."

Luo Lin smiled. He was quite satisfied with Runyu's answer, especially when he said that Jin Mi was an excellent woman. It was obvious that he was sincere and not just perfunctory.

How many men in this world choose another woman because the other woman is better, and then like to use all kinds of unimaginable words to vilify and slander the woman, as if this can prove that the original woman is unbearable and difficult to match, and prove that his choice is not wrong, that he is correct and has vision, in order to cover up his own unbearable and filthy thoughts.

Fortunately, Runyu is not such a person.

If he was such a person, he would not only help Mier to get married, but also remind the girl.

Luo Lin turned his gaze to the outside of the door, and seemed to see two little girls together in the yard outside.

"You have excellent vision. Fairy Ling Xi is an extraordinary person. Her cultivation and abilities are top-notch. She is one of the most outstanding girls I have ever seen." Luo Lin praised sincerely.

Hearing this, Runyu's smile deepened, and he obviously agreed with what Luo Lin said.

Luo Lin's face was a little solemn: "I will ask the Emperor of Heaven to cancel this engagement, but he may not agree. You should know what he is thinking. You should also understand why this engagement was made."

When the marriage contract was made, the Emperor of Heaven had just ascended the throne and was shackled by the powerful force of the Bird Tribe, so he granted a marriage between himself and Lin Xiu. This marriage contract was also to win over the forces of the Water Tribe and the Wind Tribe in order to fight against the Bird Tribe.

At that time, the water tribe was weak and he was not prepared. He also didn't know that Zifen had given birth to a daughter for him. If he knew, he would not sign the marriage certificate even if he had to fall out with the Emperor of Heaven.

If he were to fulfill this engagement now, it would mean sending Mi'er into a den of tigers and wolves, which he was unwilling to do. Moreover, he could see clearly that Mi'er had no feelings for Runyu.

In response to Luo Lin's words, Runyu just nodded slightly: "Runyu understands."

He knew very well that his marriage was just a deal, or it would be more accurate to say that it was a chess piece used to balance the power of the Queen Mother, Xu Feng, and the bird tribe.

But not all chess pieces are willing to be slaughtered at will by the chess player.

It is still unknown who will win or lose in this game of chess.

Luo Lin looked at the young man in front of him and knew that he was not as harmless as he looked.

After the game of chess was finished, the two men left the house.

When Jin Mi saw her father and Ye Shen coming out, she hurried forward and asked anxiously, "Dad, how is the discussion going?" Noticing Jin Mi's anxious mood, Luo Lin knew that Mi'er had no feelings for Runyu at all.

This is fine. Luo Lin spoke to comfort her, "Don't worry, Mi'er. Daddy will help you solve what you and His Highness Ye Shen want. Daddy will go to the Heavenly Palace to cancel the engagement tomorrow."

"Great." Jin Mi jumped up excitedly.

It was not until she recognized her father and returned to the Water God's Mansion that she learned that the eldest daughter of the Water God and the eldest son of the Emperor of Heaven were engaged. This made Jin Mi feel like she was struck by lightning, and thunder rumbled in the sky.

She and the Night God had no feelings for each other, and they had barely exchanged a few words. Moreover, she could see clearly that the Night God was deeply in love with Sister Ling Xi, and there was no room for anyone else in his eyes.

She was delighted to learn that the engagement was to be cancelled.

In this world, it would be great if lovers could finally get married just like what is written in the storybooks.

She doesn't want to be the stick that breaks up the couple.

Jin Mi looked at Ling Xi with a smile, pure joy in her eyes.

Runyu also looked at Ling Xi, his eyebrows and eyes were soft and full of affection.

Ling Xi's heart was not very calm. She could feel the joy in her heart, and a hint of sweetness slowly came over her heart.

On the second day, the Water God took Jin Mi to the Jiuxiao Cloud Palace, and not long after, the Night God was summoned by the Emperor of Heaven.

The fairies had no idea what they talked about, they only knew that after the Water God took his daughter away from the Heavenly Palace, the Emperor of Heaven issued an edict saying that the engagement between the Night God and the Water God's daughter was cancelled.

Except for Emperor Taiwei who was unhappy about this matter, everyone else was happy.

The Water God and Jin Mi are no longer engaged, and both the father and daughter are extremely happy. The Water God wants to keep Jin Mi for a few thousand more years, as he doesn't want her to be taken away by a pig from outside so early.

In addition, Luo Lin plans to take Jin Mi to Shangqingtian to find his master Xuanling Doumu Yuanjun to remove the Jialan Seal set by Zifen on Jin Mi, so that Jin Mi can restore her talent for cultivation.

The Queen Mother felt that Runyu had lost a strong supporter and could no longer compete with Xufeng for the position of crown prince.

When Xu Feng heard the news, hope was rekindled in his heart. Now that he and Jin Mi were no longer siblings, nor would they become brother-in-law and sister-in-law, he could naturally pursue Jin Mi without any scruples.

Runyu is no longer bound by the shackles of an engagement and is now a free man. He is qualified to tell Axi what he is thinking.

As for the Emperor of Heaven’s depression and discomfort, who would want to pay attention to it?

Ling Xi did not participate in this matter at all. Naturally, Runyu's affairs should be handled by himself, regardless of her opinion.

She was busy with other things.

The Queen's birthday banquet made the Emperor and the Queen lose face, so Ling Xi began to plan the next step.

Therefore, she secretly went to Dongting Lake again, discussed the next plan with Sili, and met with Rat Fairy and Yanyou.

There are some things they can still help with.
