Chapter 48 The art of speaking

"Master, you misunderstood."

When Ximen Cheng saw Yun Yun, he quickly explained: "The disciple is not bullying his senior sister, but there are obviously many ways to break the engagement, but the senior sister chose the stupidest one.

If my senior sister went to the Xiao family to break the engagement, wouldn’t we say that others would think that our Yunlan Sect was bullying others by virtue? She wouldn’t be able to pass the hurdle of Mr. Nalan Jie. Wouldn’t she plan to return to the Nalan family in the future?”

When Yun Yun heard this, her frown slowly relaxed and asked curiously: "I heard what you mean, may you have any good idea?"

"A good idea is not worthy, but I do have a way to get my senior sister to break off the engagement smoothly, and I won't make Mr. Nalan Jie angry, hehe~"

"Okay, don't keep it aside, hurry up and say it! Didn't you see your senior sister in a hurry?"

"The solution is actually very simple. Since Mr. Nalan Jie is unwilling to regret the marriage, we can find a way to get the Xiao family to terminate the engagement on their own initiative. We just need to do this..."

At first, Yun Yun and Nalan Yanran were curious, but after Ximen Cheng told the complete plan, Yun Yun and the others looked at Ximen Cheng and their eyes became a little weird.

Because Ximen Cheng's plan was too damaged, no wonder he said just now that this was not a good idea.

"Junior brother, you can think of such a bad idea. You are so bad~"

After hearing Ximen Cheng's plan, Nalan Yanran felt that the big stone pressing on her heart disappeared in an instant, and gave Ximen Cheng a blank look in a angrily manner.

Ximen Cheng shook his head and said, "Senior Sister, what you said, I am not bad, I am unparalleled in wisdom."

Yun Yun couldn't help but laugh and scolded, "What kind of wisdom is unparalleled? I think you are just a stolen bad guy, not as honest as you look on the outside."

"well……"

Ximen Cheng sighed and said, "Master, senior sister, it's not me who I said to you. You two should really learn the course "The Art of Speaking". If you can learn this course, I promise that the benefits it brings to you will definitely be better than learning a heaven-level fighting skill."

Originally, Yun Yun and Nalan Yanran didn't care, but when they heard what Ximen Cheng said so exaggeratedly, they became curious.

Yun Yun asked curiously: "Cheng'er, what exactly is the "Art of Speaking" you mentioned? Why haven't you heard of it before?"

"Reply to Master's words, "The Art of Speaking" is simply a speaking skill, which is summarized by the disciples themselves when they are idle."

Halfway through Ximen Cheng's words, he noticed Yun Yun and Nalan Yanran's increasingly confused expressions, and thought for a while and said, "Master, senior sister, if I teach you directly, you probably won't understand it for a while. Why don't I tell you a story first?"

"Okay, then you can tell me!"

Ximen said with a heartfelt voice: "A long time ago, a king had a dream, and in which his teeth fell out, he was so scared that he woke up directly.

The king who woke up was uneasy and quickly asked someone to find a dream interpreter to come over and ask him what this dream meant?

After listening to the king telling the scene in the dream, the dream interpreter suddenly changed his face and shouted pale, "Your Majesty the King, this dream is a sign of great danger, which indicates that your family will die earlier than you."

When the king heard the dream interpreter's words, he was furious and asked the soldiers to drag him out and behead him, and then someone asked someone to find another dream interpreter.

After hearing the king talk about the scene in the dream, the second dream interpreter suddenly fell to the ground and shouted excitedly, "Your Majesty the King, this is a good sign! Your teeth have fallen out in your dream, which means you will live longer than your family!"

After hearing the words of the second dream interpreter, the king was immediately happy and rewarded him with many treasures."

“(○o○)”

After listening to the story told by Ximen Cheng, Yun Yun and Nalan Yanran secretly recalled it in their hearts and showed a thoughtful expression.

"In fact, these two dream interpreters have the same meaning, but what the first dream interpreter said is easy to make people angry, while the second dream interpreter said is easier to make people happy. This is "The Art of Talking".

"It's really interesting, but... Cheng'er, how could you think of this kind of thing?"

“┐(‘~`;)┌”

Ximen Cheng shrugged helplessly and said, "Master~ Do you think the disciples want to think about these things? The disciples really have no choice. The outer disciples are different from the inner disciples, and the competitiveness between the outer disciples is too great.

Especially for external disciples like disciples who have no background, if they show extremely high cultivation talent when they are in the outer sect, it will easily arouse the jealousy of other external disciples. Those external disciples with deep backgrounds, they will be troubled by their disciples who have no time to practice.

Therefore, it has been the case that the disciples have been hiding their true cultivation over the years, and they applied to become an inner disciple until they are almost fifteen years old, just to make a big splash.”

"Chenger~"

When Yun Yun heard this, she looked at Ximen Cheng's eyes and unconsciously showed a look of pity.

Originally, Yun Yun felt that Ximen Cheng was a little deep, but now when he thought of his orphan identity, he felt sorry for this little apprentice, and he wanted to hold him in his arms and comfort him well.

"Junior brother..."

Nalan Yanran's gaze at Ximen Cheng became softer and softer.

In the past, Nalan Yanran always thought that Ximen’s honest combat ability was weak because he spent most of his time practicing martial arts and ignored the practice of fighting skills.

But now it seems that the reason why Ximen Cheng rarely practices fighting skills is because he is worried that he will be seen through his true strength by others, which will attract some bad people to maliciously suppress.

When Nalan Yanran thought of Ximen Cheng's past when he was in the outer sect, while guarding against other outer sect disciples and practicing hard, the scene of Ximen Cheng enduring humiliation and being unyielding appeared in his mind. He felt very distressed for this junior brother.

Ximen Cheng noticed the change in Yun Yun and Nalan Yanran's eyes. He was calm on the surface, but he couldn't help but laugh in his heart: "See? This is "The Art of Speaking"!"

In fact, Ximen Cheng's words just now were purely used to fool Yun Yun and the others. Although the outer disciples have great competitiveness, there are not many outer disciples who are truly maliciously suppressed.
