Chapter 61
61 Breaking off the Engagement
Donald Hoffman was shocked. “This is… purple Qi?”
Whoosh!
Behind Braydon, another stream of purple Qi appeared. The amount of purple Qi was increasing, and it surrounded his body.
Purple Qi surrounded his body, and Heather Sage’s eyes were wide open.
“Wow!” Xana Thomas applauded. “Braydon, you know magic!”
“Purple Qi protects your body! Natural Saint! Who are you?!”
Donald was so scared that he stood up. His face was frighteningly pale. The legendary thing was actually hidden in the body of this man.
Who was he?
It was rumored that a wisp of purple Qi was born by seizing the good fortunes of heaven and earth.
A person with low intelligence would only need a wisp of purple Qi to incite one’s spirit and turn into a genius.
The purple Qi could strengthen one’s foundation and improve one’s hearing and vision, make up for one’s shortcomings, and improve one’s perception.
This sort of thing was a priceless treasure to both martial artists and ordinary people.
But now, Braydon’s body was protected by 99 layers of purple Qi. He was sitting calmly, and in his noble temperament, there was a sense of immortal-like spirit.
The greed in Donald’s eyes could not be concealed.
Only warriors knew how important one’s talent was.
If he could merge with such a dense purple Qi, he would definitely become the most outstanding young genius in Preston, or even the entire three provinces of the central plains.
Braydon released purple Qi and chuckled. “Purple Qi has a magical effect. I’ll give you another wisp tomorrow!”
“I don’t want it!”
Heather Sage rejected without hesitation.
If she had known that she would not be able to eat for the whole day, she would not have wanted the purple Qi that Braydon gave her this morning.
“Brother, I want it!” Donald said hurriedly.
“Who do you think you are?” Braydon smiled and questioned the young man.
He should see if he was qualified enough to ask for the Northern King’s purple Qi!
“I can buy it with money!” Donald’s face was dark and scary.
“He doesn’t lack money!” Heather muttered softly.
Xana said lazily, “He’s the eldest son of the Neals. He owns all the properties. He doesn’t need your money.”
Donald was shocked, but he was no stranger to the Neals.
The Neal family, the head of the seven great families in Preston, was a giant in Preston, and not everyone could afford to offend them.
“Braydon, I’m hungry!” Heather said, feeling wronged.
“Endure!” Braydon lowered his head and ate all the vegetables.
“Haha!” Xana laughed. “How are you going to live together when you get married? ”
“Who wants to marry a bastard like him? We’re just ordinary friends at most!” Heather turned her head away in a fit of pique.
Xana’s jade-like fingers tucked her hair behind her ear, revealing her crystal-clear earlobe. She wanted to say something but stopped.
“Really?” she asked.
“It’s true!” Heather nodded her head proudly.
Braydon put down his bowl and chopsticks, frowning. “I’ve said this when we first met. If you don’t agree, you can break off the engagement. With Grandma Sage here, I, Braydon, will protect the Sage family for the rest of my life!”
As soon as he had finished speaking, Braydon turned around and left with steady and powerful steps.
One could imagine. Braydon became a general at the age of seven, became a War God at the age of nine, became the Northern overlord at the age of 13, and became a king at the age of 17. He was in full control of the northern army, and the millions of elites of the ten legions were all subjects under him!
He was a genius seen once every thousand years. He was a young man whose name had spread across Hansworth, and he suppressed hundreds of countries in the world!
The young and high-ranking Braydon had a fit body and a strong backbone!
He had already said that he could break off the engagement with Heather.
He, Braydon, would never bully the innocent. The swords of the Neal family would never be stained with the blood of the innocent!
In just a few days, Heather had mentioned several times in public that she was against the marriage, and she had expressed her stand in front of Braydon.
Braydon was not a clingy person.
Since Heather did not agree, there was no need to force the marriage.
Heather stared at Braydon’s departure for a long time, as if she had lost something important. She did not know why, but she wanted to chase after him.
However, she was still the young lady of the Sage family. She sat down in a fit of pique, her eyes slightly red.
“Alright, don’t be angry!” Xana comforted her.
“Heather, I don’t think you should joke about this. Seriously, if it were me, I wouldn’t be pestering a girl incessantly if she were to reject me repeatedly, saying that she doesn’t agree to the marriage. I would just draw a clear line between us!”
As a friend, Joseph Thomas could not help but be a little serious.
As a guy, he understood his peers better.
There was no lack of ordinary students who were shameless enough to pursue goddesses like Heather.
With the Sage family’s resources as support, an ordinary person would be able to reach the sky in one step and save 30 years of hard work.
But for Braydon, he did not care about these things.
Furthermore, Heather did not understand martial artists. Most of them were proud and unyielding.
Making people like them lower their heads was harder than turning their heads around!
Xana shouted, “It’s none of your business. You’re just adding oil to the fire. Go back to class!”
“I’m just telling the truth; a martial artist cannot be humiliated!”
Joseph put his hands in his pockets and left the cafeteria lazily.
In the private office.
Braydon took out a new phone from his desk and made a call. “Dad, it’s Braydon!”
“Braydon, what’s wrong?” Louis Neal was handling company affairs.
“Heather and I are not suitable for each other,” Braydon said calmly. you can talk to Grandma Sage and cancel the engagement!”
“Braydon, this…”
Louis wanted to say something but stopped. He really wanted to persuade him.
However, once Braydon had decided on something, he would not change his mind.
This was a habit he had developed in the northern territory. He was not conceited, but as the commander of the northern army, his words were the military order!
Therefore, no matter what was said, it would be difficult to take back spilled water and would not be changed easily!
The call ended.
“Professor Neal?” Dawson Lablanc knocked on the door and came in.
“Let’s go to your research room!”
Braydon knew why he was here. He put his phone back in the drawer and went to the research building of Preston University, which was not accessible to ordinary people.
In the 500 square meter research room on the first floor, all kinds of high-end precision equipment were placed, which cost no less than 20 million dollars.
The annual maintenance cost was probably no less than a million, which showed how expensive scientific research was.
There were eight students in the research room.
The six men and two women put down their work and shouted, “Teacher!”
“Let me introduce you to Braydon Neal, the youngest dean-level professor since the establishment of our school. He will be the honorary research director of our research lab in the future!”
Dawson was the first to applaud.
The eight students widened their eyes. They had thought that Braydon was their new junior, but who would have guessed that he was a dean-level teacher.
But he was too young!
The eight students had no right to question the person Dawson had personally brought.
“The equipment is a little shabby.” Braydon frowned.
“Braydon Neal, you’re going too far. The equipment in our gravity research room is second to none in all of Preston. Do you see this gravity testing machine? I’m afraid you haven’t seen it before. It’s worth eight million dollars. There’s only one in Preston!”
The younger man, Quentin Hunt, who was in his thirties, had a haughty look on his face.
Braydon glanced at it and said, “I’ve seen a gravity testing machine that’s worth 15 billion!”
“Really?” The surrounding students could not help but jump in shock.
“You’re talking about the A5-13 gravity testing machine, right?” Quentin frowned.
