Gao Wu: You broke off the engagement at my 100th birthday banquet, do you dare take my punch?

The Ninth Province.

Jiangnan City.

Qin family.

The small courtyard was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations. Qin Changsheng sat in the armchair in front of the hall. Beneath his kind smile, his aged face revealed a hint of weariness.

today.

It was his 100th birthday celebration, and also the first hundred years since he traveled to this parallel world.

Time flies like an arrow, years pass by in the blink of an eye... a hundred years have passed in the blink of an eye.

His eyes were somewhat unfocused: "Thinking about my life, although it wasn't dazzling or illustrious, I lived to be a hundred years old without illness or disaster, and I have a house full of children and grandchildren... Such a life is not bad."

In this world.

The average lifespan of an ordinary person is around seventy years.

However, martial artists are different. The stronger they are, the higher their lifespan can be. Some powerful grandmasters can even live to be three or four hundred years old!

The first few decades after I transmigrated to this world.

Every day, Qin Changsheng fantasized that he could awaken a cheat ability like the protagonist in his previous life's novels, and dominate all races.

pity.

Although he has martial arts talent, he can only be considered mediocre.

In her early twenties.

After graduating from the Martial Arts University, he was filled with enthusiasm and entered the battlefield of all races until he was thirty years old and returned wounded, eventually becoming a centurion in the Ninth Provincial Army.

After retreating from the front line.

Qin Changsheng married and had children, and his family prospered in Jiangnan City.

now.

The Qin family is thriving, with five generations now living together.

Originally, Qin Changsheng did not plan to hold a grand birthday banquet. After all, there were too many juniors in the Qin family, and it would be troublesome to go to such lengths. However, this year, a junior with exceptional talent appeared in the third generation of the Qin family. At such a young age, his blood energy strength exceeded two thousand, and he is expected to compete for the top three in this year's Jiangnan City Martial Arts Examination.

Qin Changsheng then made the decision to gather the younger generation to celebrate his 100th birthday.

"Get out of the way! I need to see Old Master Qin!"

A hurried, proud female voice came from outside the courtyard gate.

Qin Changsheng frowned slightly, slowly turned his head, and looked in the direction of the sound.

All I saw was...

A slender young woman wearing a black jumpsuit and with her hair tied in a high ponytail kicked open the door to the courtyard, ignoring the obstruction of the younger members of the Qin family outside.

"You are... a maid from the Liu family?"

Qin Changsheng did not criticize her, but instead looked her over for a moment and recognized the girl's identity.

"Exactly."

The young woman nodded proudly, chin held high, and said bluntly, "Grandpa Qin, back then you and my grandfather arranged a marriage between me and your grandson Qin Yan. Today I've come to annul the engagement!"

"break off an engagement?"

The younger members of the Qin family looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Ruyan, can't you wait until after Grandpa's birthday banquet to say what you need to say?"

A boy, about the same age as the girl but behaving with unusual maturity, walked into the courtyard with a complicated expression and reached out to pull the girl away.

"Don't touch me!"

The girl snorted coldly, her face showing displeasure as she circulated her qi and blood, forcing the boy back two steps: "Qin Yan, stop talking nonsense. Do you think a piece of trash like you is worthy of me, Liu Ruyan?"

"The Qin family must annul this marriage today!"

After she finished speaking, her gaze went straight to Qin Changsheng.

Qin Changsheng frowned slightly: "Girl from the Liu family, the matter of annulling the engagement involves two families. It's not something you, a little girl, can decide with just a few words. Let your parents handle it."

The young girl, Liu Ruyan, frowned.

Just then.

A voice came from outside the courtyard gate: "Old fool, I knew you'd say that. If Ruyan's word isn't enough to decide the annulment of the engagement, then is mine?"

The words fell.

An elderly man dressed in a Tang suit walked into the courtyard, leaning on a dragon-headed cane.

None of the younger members of the Qin family dared to stop them.

"Liu Ming'en?"

Qin Changsheng frowned even more deeply. Hearing the other person's address, he snorted and said, "Back in the battlefield of ten thousand races, when I carried you out of a pile of corpses, you didn't dare to call me that."

"Hmph, why bring it up in the past?"

The old man in the Tang suit snorted coldly, came up behind Liu Ruyan, and looked directly at Qin Changsheng: "I am here today on behalf of the Liu family to announce the annulment of the engagement between our two families."

"reason?"

Qin Changsheng narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Hmph, my granddaughter Ruyan has a Saint-level bloodline. Her innate blood and blood are as fine as mercury and her bone marrow is as pure as jade. She is a martial arts prodigy that is rare to find in a thousand years. She has now been exceptionally admitted to the First Military Academy and become a disciple of a Grandmaster."

"The First Military Academy is the number one martial arts academy in the Great Xia Kingdom. Six out of ten Grandmasters in the Great Xia Kingdom are graduates of the First Military Academy!"

"Yan'er has entered the top military academy; she's destined to become a grandmaster!"

The words fell.

Everyone present was stunned.

"The First Military Academy? Liu Ruyan was admitted to the First Military Academy?"

"It is said that the admission requirements for the First Military Academy are extremely strict, and only the top scorers in the martial arts examinations of the major provinces are eligible to apply."

"The Liu family is about to take off."

Everyone looked at each other.

Liu Ming'en straightened his slightly hunched back, his face full of arrogance: "What kind of family is your Qin family? Do you think you're worthy of a marriage alliance with my Liu family?"

"Qin Yan is just a near-top three student in Jiangnan City, a piece of trash who has no hope of even becoming the city's top student. Let alone getting into the top military academy, I think at most he can only get into an ordinary martial arts university in the ninth province."

"Does such a piece of trash even deserve to marry my Yan'er?"

These words were spoken.

Qin Changsheng frowned deeply.

The faces of the Qin family members were also extremely ugly. Qin Yan, who was the target of the attack, clenched his fists tightly and his arms trembled slightly.

"This marriage is off whether the Qin family likes it or not!"

Liu Ruyan then spoke, raising her chin.

"Qin Yan, what do you think?"

Qin Changsheng did not answer, but looked at Qin Yan who was standing not far away.

The latter's eyes flashed with anger, but his face remained restrained and composed: "I'll do whatever Grandpa says."

Qin Changsheng withdrew his gaze and looked at Liu Ming'en and Liu Ruyan: "In that case, the engagement can be annulled, but the betrothal gifts from my Qin family must be returned."

"bride price……"

Liu Ruyan was slightly taken aback, and was about to speak.

At this time.

Liu Ming'en sneered, looking at Qin Changsheng with a half-smile: "Return the betrothal gifts? No way!"

"Consider this small betrothal gift as a pre-emptive tribute from your Qin family to my Liu family. Otherwise, in the future, your Qin family won't even be qualified to curry favor with my Liu family. You old fool, you're truly muddle-headed! You actually want my Liu family to return the betrothal gift?"

"..."

Qin Changsheng remained silent, only coldly glancing at the other party.

Seeing this, Liu Ming'en frowned and sneered again, "Besides, even if my Liu family doesn't return the betrothal gifts, what can you do, you old fool?"

"Liu Ming'en, you really did choose a good name."

Qin Changsheng was furious, his eyes flashing with anger: "Calling me an old scoundrel this and that, have you lost your conscience?"

"Back then, I risked my life to carry you out of the battlefield of ten thousand races, sustaining seventeen cuts. If I had known this would happen, I would have saved a dog instead of you!"

"presumptuous!!"

Liu Ming'en flew into a rage, slamming his dragon-headed cane down and glaring menacingly at Qin Changsheng: "You old bastard, do you still think I, Liu, am like I was back then, and have to put up with your wrath?"

"My granddaughter has become a disciple of a Grandmaster. Now, with the support of the elixir company, I've received restorative injections and regained my vitality. How dare you speak to me like that?"

"Fine, since you insist on bringing up the kindness of those seventeen cuts."

"After the annulment of the engagement, I will reward you with 170,000 Singapore dollars. That should be enough for your Qin family to survive for quite some time!"

"you……"

Qin Changsheng was about to speak.

Just then.

A voice suddenly rang in his ear.

【Ding--】

[The host has been detected to have successfully survived in this dimension for one hundred years.]

[The God-level Copying System is being bound...]

"system?"

Qin Changsheng was somewhat taken aback.

Eighty years ago, when he was still a young man, he fantasized that he would hear a "ding" sound in his ear that could defy fate.

But now.

He was already old and frail, with his neck almost buried, when he heard this familiar yet unfamiliar name again, he subconsciously wondered if he was hallucinating.

however.

The system's ethereal voice continued.

【Ding--】

[God-level copying system successfully bound!]

[Current system level: 1.]

[Current number of times this entry can be copied: 1.]

"Grandpa, what's wrong?"

Seeing Qin Changsheng suddenly stop and look dazed, Qin Yan assumed he was angered by the Liu family and his family members. A flash of anger crossed his eyes as he stared intently at the two of them: "If anything happens to my grandfather today..."

"My Qin family will never let this go!"
