Chapter 25 Can We Cultivate

The Nianqi Continent has a long history, but people's thoughts and social systems are very traditional and conservative. The marriage certificate is a reflection of the old idea of ​​arranged marriages.

Xu Huan searched through all the ancient books but couldn't figure out the reason. He could only guess that it was related to the multiple mass extinctions that occurred in the fragmentary historical records, which led to the interruption of civilization.

Perhaps it is because the human race follows the old ways that they can continue to exist, unlike other alien races that disappeared in the long river of history, so they did not make any changes.

Xu Huan learned from relevant books that in the marriage system of the Wuling Empire, the marriage certificate has legal binding force and is an important proof of the establishment of marriage, and it is made in duplicate.

Watching Xuan Ling'er destroying the marriage certificate as if it were a game, and then taking out an identical marriage certificate, and learning from her that there were many more marriage certificates, Xu Huan was really confused.

Hearing Xu Huan's slightly doubtful words, Xuan Ling'er did not hide it and simply waved her hand. The next moment, a pile of marriage certificates that were as high as Xu Huan's head appeared neatly next to Xu Huan, allowing him to see them clearly.

"Not much, just a few hundred million."

Listening to the girl's soft and light voice, Xu Huan looked at the pile of marriage certificates, his eyes scanning back and forth, looking them up and down, and even flipping through them.

After a moment, Xu Huan looked a little unnatural, and was shocked to find that the marriage certificates in front of him were all exactly the same authentic ones.

"Ling'er, how come you have so many marriage certificates? This is really outrageous. The marriage certificates are clearly based on the marriage system and are only in duplicate." Xu Huan said in astonishment.

Staring at Xu Huan's dark eyes, a faint smile appeared on Xuan Ling'er's pretty face. She said softly, "These are all from your mother, my mother-in-law. She seemed to have guessed that you would break off the engagement, so she prepared a lot of marriage certificates and left them to me."

Hearing this, Xu Huan's mouth twitched unconsciously. He stood there in silence, only secretly sighing in his heart:

Mom, you are truly my best mom...

You prepared so many marriage certificates. How afraid are you of the engagement being broken off?

You really care about your eldest son's important life event...

……

After a moment, Xu Huan regained his composure and shifted his gaze, sweeping across Xuan Ling'er's silky eyebrows and eyelashes and looking directly into her bright eyes.

"Ling'er, didn't you say that you opposed this arranged marriage before? Then why don't you just destroy these marriage certificates?" Xu Huan pondered for a moment and said softly.

"It had been in my mother's hands before, and I only got it after returning home this time." Xuan Ling'er shook her head slightly, and then changed the subject, "Originally, I wanted to destroy it right after I got it, but then I learned that you had called off the engagement three years ago, so I resisted the urge to destroy the marriage certificate for the time being, and then I came here to look for you."

Looking at Xuan Ling'er's pretty face with a smile on her lips, Xu Huan recalled the scenes of their encounters since they started at Tiangong Pavilion, and suddenly an idea flashed through his mind.

"Ling'er, don't you want to cancel the engagement?" Xu Huan said hesitantly.

"No, I want to quit." Xuan Ling'er shook her head slightly.

The next moment, Xuan Ling'er waved her right hand gently, and Xu Huan saw that the marriage certificates piled up as high as him turned into powder in an instant, and then floated into the flowers beside the road and used as fertilizer.

Immediately afterwards, Xuan Ling'er waved her hand again, and another pile of marriage certificates as tall as Xu Huan appeared.

"Xu Huan, do you agree to cancel the engagement?" Xuan Ling'er asked lightly.

Looking at the pile of marriage certificates, Xu Huan's expression was slightly moved. He pursed his lips and nodded, "Withdraw."

The next moment, the marriage certificate was broken into pieces and used as fertilizer for the flowers.

Then, in Xu Huan's astonished gaze, Xuan Ling'er waved her hand again and piled up the marriage certificates as high as Xu Huan.

"Cancel the engagement?" Xuan Ling'er said lightly.

Hearing this, Xu Huan's mouth twitched, and his throat felt a little dry, but he still nodded and said, "Retreat!"

The next moment, the marriage certificate was broken into pieces and used as fertilizer for the flowers.

Then, the marriage certificate appeared. "Cancel the engagement?"

"Back off!" Xu Huan said with gritted teeth. He didn't believe that there could be so many marriage certificates.

The marriage certificate was broken into pieces and used as fertilizer for flowers.

Then, the marriage certificate appeared.

"Cancel the engagement?"

"retreat!"

Marriage certificate, broken.

Marriage certificate, present.

broken.

Now.

……

"Cancel the engagement?"

The girl still had that light and ethereal voice, but her eyes were staring at Xu Huan with a hint of teasing.

Looking at the marriage certificates piled up in front of him that was still as high as himself, and the "fertilizer" piled up like a small mountain beside the road, Xu Huan opened his mouth but no sound came out.

"My dear mother, how many marriage certificates have you prepared?"

After complaining silently in his heart for a while, Xu Huan sighed deeply and finally realized that the girl in front of him didn't want to cancel the engagement at all.

"Ling'er, tell me the truth, what do you want?" Xu Huan shrugged and said.

"I didn't think about anything, I just wanted to cancel the engagement." Xuan Ling'er also shrugged and said innocently.

Xu Huan rolled his eyes helplessly, curled his lips, and then said seriously: "I've retired enough, and played enough, it's time to talk about something serious."

Xuan Ling'er blinked her long eyelashes and waved her hand again, letting the pile of marriage certificates act as fertilizer for the flowers. She pursed her lips and said, "Originally, I really wanted to break off the engagement with you because I don't want to marry someone I don't like."

Xuan Ling'er paused, raised her head slightly, took a deep breath, and then looked directly into Xu Huan's eyes and said, "But when I saw you, I felt joy for no reason, just like the rising sun. The air I breathe is sweeter, and I feel joyful all over."

Looking at Xuan Ling'er's serious expression, Xu Huan frowned slightly and said, "You mean, you fell in love with me at first sight?"

"Hmm..." Xuan Ling'er pondered for a moment, her jade-white fingers resting against her delicate chin. "If you say this is love at first sight, then I won't refute it. After all, when it comes to love, who can really say for sure?"

"But I don't want to marry someone I don't like." Xu Huan sighed and said.

"Am I not good-looking?" Xuan Ling'er frowned slightly and asked softly.

Looking at the girl in front of him who seemed to embody the spirit of heaven and earth, and seeing a hint of worry on her face, Xu Huan also felt a little pity for her.

"Ling'er is of course very beautiful, but love is something that cannot be forced..." Xu Huan pursed his lips and shook his head slightly.

"If there's no affection, we can cultivate it. I fell in love with you at first sight, so you can be attracted to me and fall in love with me over time." Hearing this, Xuan Ling'er pondered for a moment, then her face relaxed. In her light and airy voice, she said, "Besides, I won't stop you from marrying other women."

Hearing this, Xu Huan curled his lips and said, "Do you think I don't know that our Five Spirits Empire is monogamous..."

"Who told you that?" Hearing this, Xuan Ling'er raised her eyebrows, then shook her head and said, "We are not monogamous at all."
