Seeing Yin Qingshan's boastful talk, Yin Linyu felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction.
She was naturally rebellious and had forward-thinking ideas.
How could a piece of trash like Ming Qishui be worthy of her?
If not for the Yin family blood flowing in her veins, and if she didn't want to do anything for her family, she would rather break her own jade than let Ming Qishui defile her.
However, reason triumphed over impulse. She knew she had to think from the family's perspective and couldn't disregard the clan for personal gain.
Thus, she resigned herself to fate and agreed to "consort" with Ming Qishui.
But fate, as they say, is not always predictable. Ming Qishui, who had been arrogant for so long, finally drew Heaven's ire and was crippled today.
This was precisely why Yin Linyu was happy. Ming Qishui was now a fool, and Mingda would certainly not be thinking about marriage alliances. He was too afraid to even show his face, so how could he manage such matters?
Thinking of this, she was reminded of Xia Feng's imposing figure. Divine Emperor, what a distant and unattainable term.
She had truly witnessed it – the legendary Divine Emperor stood before her. This was not a legend, but a tangible reality.
Who would have thought that in her lifetime, she would actually meet a Divine Emperor?
This was even more difficult than dreaming, because before Xia Feng appeared, no one believed in the existence of Divine Emperors in this world.
This was a true man. It was a pity she was unworthy, not even qualified to be his devoted follower. The three women accompanying him were all beautiful, like celestial maidens.
Although Yin Linyu always considered herself not bad, and a beauty in her own right, she felt inferior when faced with Zi Ruolin and the other two.
With a myriad of thoughts racing through her mind, Yin Linyu slowly spoke, "Second Grandfather, the marriage is off, it's no longer valid. Mingda Divine Venerable himself told me."
Hmm???
Yin Zeyang and Yin Qingshan were both stunned.
It was no longer valid?
And Mingda himself told her?
Even a three-year-old child wouldn't believe such words. Even if Mingda wanted to say it was invalid, he would tell Yin Zeyang, not a young girl like her.
A father knows his daughter best. Yin Zeyang finally understood why Yin Linyu appeared so happy – the marriage was off.
He had just thought his daughter had come to terms with it, but it turned out to be this.
"Linyu, what's going on? Tell me in detail," Yin Qingshan asked sternly, looking at Yin Linyu.
He felt that Yin Linyu wouldn't say such a thing for no reason.
There must be a reason, and she didn't seem like she was lying, which was what puzzled Yin Qingshan.
"Second Grandfather, Linyu speaks the truth. Mingda Divine Venerable personally told me today that this marriage is no longer valid, because Ming Qishui is now a cripple. Mingda Divine Venerable personally stripped his divine persona."
Yin Linyu did not conceal anything, but stated the main reason for the events.
The uncle and nephew were once again stunned.
Mingda personally stripped Ming Qishui's divine persona? This was utterly bewildering to them.
It was simply unbelievable. Something incredibly significant must have happened.
Seeing their shocked, confused, and curious eyes, Yin Linyu felt a surge of comfort.
"Linyu, don't hold back. Tell us everything you know truthfully."
Yin Zeyang was impatient to know the answer. He knew for sure that something major had occurred.
Otherwise, who would have the heart to strip their own grandson's divine persona? That was absolutely impossible.
Moreover, Yin Zeyang felt a hint of fear.
If Mingda could strip his own grandson's divine persona, who knew what other terrifying things might happen?
Yin Linyu didn't answer this question but instead asked, "Second Grandfather, Father, Linyu has a question for you."
"Ask quickly." Yin Zeyang was somewhat impatient, feeling his daughter wasn't getting to the point.
"Do you believe there are Divine Emperors in this world?" Yin Linyu finally asked.
Yin Zeyang was stunned. Even as a God Emperor realm expert, he was unfamiliar with the term "Divine Emperor."
Yin Zeyang did not reply. Instead, Yin Qingshan answered, "I can tell you clearly, Divine Emperor is just a legendary realm. There are no Divine Emperors in this world."
Yin Linyu's lips curved into a slight smile. She didn't think Yin Qingshan was ignorant; rather, before seeing Xia Feng, no one would have believed it.
"Your Second Grandfather is correct. There cannot be Divine Emperors in this world. Hurry up and get to the main point," Yin Zeyang also affirmed, urging Yin Linyu not to dally, as the main business was important.
The reason why Mingda stripped Ming Qishui's divine persona was the actual matter at hand.
Yin Linyu ignored Yin Zeyang and spoke earnestly to Yin Qingshan, "Second Grandfather, I can tell you definitively, there are Divine Emperors in this world. I saw it with my own eyes today. Because Ming Qishui offended him, Mingda knelt before him and begged for mercy. He stripped Ming Qishui's divine persona, thereby barely saving his life."
Yin Linyu recounted everything she knew.
Upon hearing this, Yin Qingshan reacted as if his fur had been ruffled and hastily denied it:
"Impossible, absolutely impossible."
How could there be Divine Emperors in this world?
He wouldn't believe it even if he were beaten to death. This was a legendary realm, it was false.
Just as Yin Qingshan was disbelieving, Xia Feng's figure appeared out of thin air, landing not far in front of them. His voice carried an unquestionable tone:
"Who is the City Lord?"
