On the First Day of My Broken Engagement, I Was Rewarded with the Supreme Bone! - Chapter 62:
Chapter 62: The Daughter of Destiny Fell Like This? The Hero of New Luck, Prince Guchen!!:
“Is that… Holy Maiden Qiu Ruohan?”
The frozen landscape stretched for thousands of miles.
Above the void, the ice coffin opened.
Steps of ice descended from the sky, connecting heaven and earth.
At this moment, all eyes were drawn to one figure—a beautiful woman, like an ice fairy descending from the heavens. She stepped down from the sky as if she had come from the celestial palace, falling into the mortal world.
She was breathtaking.
With every step she took, an ice lotus bloomed in the air. Her skin was like crystal, clear and pure, exuding a mystical aura. She looked like a fairy untouched by the world.
It was Qiu Ruohan.
“That’s… Qiu Ruohan, the Holy Maiden of the Azure Cloud Sect?”
“She truly lives up to her reputation as the most beautiful woman in the Northern Realm… With such grace, even in the entire Kunxu Domain, she would be ranked among the top five!”
“Didn’t she fall in the secret realm?”
“Looks like she survived a catastrophe and gained immense fortune and luck in the secret realm…”
Thousands of prodigies stared in awe at Qiu Ruohan, who looked like a goddess returning to earth.
Today, she had completely freed herself from the shackles of the cursed Frost-Cold Body.
Not only had she survived, but the icy beauty she now radiated seemed to freeze everything around her, making her the only thing in bloom.
At this moment, the thousands of prodigies couldn’t help but stare, entranced.
“She’s so beautiful… like a fairy… Qiu Ruohan was always stunning, but now she seems even more ethereal after surviving her ordeal.”
“What happened? I remember that Lin Ang sent her to the depths of the secret realm…”
“Could this also be because of Lin Ang’s actions?”
As they silently marveled at her, Qiu Ruohan descended from the icy steps, her gaze softening as soon as she saw Lin Ang. The cold expression on her face melted into a gentle smile.
“Master… Young Master”
In front of thousands of prodigies, she walked up to Lin Ang and nestled into his arms, full of submission.
In the past, she might have shown some shyness, but now she was completely open. Her beautiful face flushed slightly, and she whispered, “Young Master… I’m still alive.”
The contrast between her cold beauty and this soft, tender demeanor made her even more enchanting.
“From now on, I will follow the young master, and only the young master,” Qiu Ruohan said, her icy blue eyes filled with sincerity. She no longer cared about what others thought.
“After I fell into the depths of the sea… I thought I was going to die. But it was my desire to see you again that kept me alive. That gave me the strength to obtain the inheritance from the ice coffin.”
“You gave me a second life, young master.”
Qiu Ruohan gazed at Lin Ang with deep affection, as if nothing else in the world mattered to her. “From now on, I will live only for the young master.”
This was her declaration.
And the thousands of prodigies watching below? What could they do but feel envy?
“As expected of Lin Ang… only a peerless goddess like Qiu Ruohan is worthy of him…”
“Now that she’s obtained such a great fortune, she’s destined for the Holy Land… and the Azure Cloud Sect will rise even higher…”
“Lin Ang is like a dragon, and it’s only natural that a goddess like Qiu Ruohan would fall in love with him.”
Some of the female prodigies couldn’t help but murmur in disappointment:
“It’s a shame… we ordinary girls don’t even stand a chance of catching Lin Ang’s eye…”
As the discussions swirled, Lin Ang checked Qiu Ruohan’s luck entry.
[Name]: Qiu Ruohan
[Favourability]: Complete submission, lives for only one person.
[Golden Luck – Ice Empress]: A future Ice Empress with the temperament of a ruler. Blessed by this fortune, her comprehension abilities are greatly enhanced, and she will continue to gain new luck and opportunities. This fortune also influences those around her, bringing them benefits.
[Golden Luck – Saintess of the Holy Land]: A certain Holy Land has taken notice of her. In a few days, she will be accepted into the Holy Land as a saintess.
Looking at her new luck…
Lin Ang couldn’t help but smile. As expected of the Daughter of Destiny, her fortunes had transformed immediately. Now that she had fully surrendered to him, Lin Ang’s own luck had been greatly strengthened.
For instance, his recent breakthrough to the Grandmaster Realm was a gift from his enhanced luck. According to Lu Ming’s plot, he was supposed to fail, but his newfound luck had made the impossible possible.
Lin Ang’s smile grew wider.
This journey to the secret realm had brought him immense rewards, and he had become the biggest victor of the Tianjiao gathering.
Next, his path led to the Holy Land… the true stage where all the top prodigies of the Kunxu Domain would gather.
“Well,” Sect Master Qingyun said, beaming with joy. “If Qiu Ruohan has survived her catastrophe, it is truly a blessing for our Azure Cloud Sect!”
With a wave of his sleeve, his voice echoed across the world:
“Return to the Azure Cloud Sect!!”
At his command, the disciples began their journey back to the sect.
At the same time, in the Kunxu Domain, within the sacred halls of the Holy Land of the Firmament, an ancient and grand golden hall stood.
Inside the dim hall, small flickering lights illuminated the divine splendor, resembling the vast cosmos of stars.
A figure in a white robe sat quietly in the void. It was a woman, incredibly beautiful, with an air of maturity and detachment, as if she had lived through countless eons. But her appearance was that of a woman in her early thirties, blessed by the stars and embodying the power of time.
This was no ordinary being…
And at this moment, the woman in white suddenly opened her eyes. In her gaze, stars twinkled, as if she could peer through millennia in a single glance.
“The Frost-Cold Body?” she murmured.
“I’ve been searching for the right candidate for tens of thousands of years, and now she has appeared!”
“The one who can inherit my legacy has finally come!!”
As the white-robed woman’s excitement grew, the stars around her shifted, and the flowers and plants within the Holy Land withered, only to grow anew.
…
After returning to the Azure Cloud Sect, Lin Ang presented the elixirs he had obtained from the secret realm to Ancestor.
With these elixirs, the sect master could extend his life by another thousand years.
The entire Azure Cloud Sect now thrived under the combined luck of Lin Ang and Qiu Ruohan. Over the next thousand years, the Patriarch would make another breakthrough.
It wasn’t out of reach anymore…
“Hahaha! Heaven truly smiles upon the Azure Cloud Sect!!” Ancestor laughed heartily. “With this elixir, I’ll be able to advance even further in my next retreat!”
His eyes gleamed with killing intent.
But before retreating, the Ancestor had one last matter to settle…
Destroying the Jade Moon Sect!!
The Jade Moon Sect and the Azure Cloud Sect had been enemies for generations. Many young disciples of the Azure Cloud Sect had fallen into their hands.
Now, with their Sun Moon Sect ancestor dead, the Jade Moon Sect was already in decline.
Just a few days later, Ancestor personally led an expedition, accompanied by Sect Master and six Supreme Elders.
They descended upon the Jade Moon Sect.
That day, the elites of the Azure Cloud Sect moved out in force, shaking the mountains and rivers, with thousands of disciples soaring through the skies.
The Jade Moon Sect relied heavily on its mountain protection formation, barely managing to resist the onslaught.
Within the Sovereign Hall, the remaining Supreme Elders had all surrendered to the Jade Moon Sect and were willing to submit.
Only two loyal servants remained beside Bai Ming Yuantian, the Sect Master of the Jade Moon Sect.
Sect Master Bai Yue, knowing that he was doomed, lamented, “Heaven seeks to destroy me, Jade Moon Sect…”
“The fall of the Jade Moon Sect… by my own hands! How can I face our ancestors?!”
With a heavy heart, Sect Master Bai Yue ordered the two servants, “After I die, sever my face and seal it in a paper box. Deliver it to the Shenpi Sect. Burn my body so it won’t fall into the hands of the Azure Cloud Sect. I cannot endure such humiliation!”
Even in the face of death, Sect Master Bai Yue maintained the dignity of a top powerhouse.
After giving his final instructions, he calmly closed his eyes and sat down.
That night, the mountain protection formation of the Jade Moon Sect was breached. The remaining elders and disciples surrendered on the spot.
From that day forward, the Jade Moon Sect’s territory fell under the control of the Azure Cloud Sect.
A week later…
It was early morning at Cangxuan Peak.
In the hall where Lin Ang typically rested, he lay asleep on a crystal-clear ice jade bed, eyes closed in peaceful slumber.
Beside him lay a beautiful figure, breathing evenly. She was cool and ethereal, like a painting of an ice and snow fairy. It was Qiu Ruohan.
Since Qiu Ruohan had submitted to Lin Ang, the two had been regarded as Daoist companions. Now, they lived together at Cangxuan Peak. However, because she had only recently fused with the Frost-Cold Body, she still felt somewhat weak and spent much of her time sleeping.
As Lin Ang pondered over recent events, a system prompt suddenly echoed in his mind:
[Congratulations to the host, you have gained the complete submission of the Daughter of Destiny and inherited all of her luck.]
[Cumulative luck value has reached 1200.]
[You may now spend 1,000 luck points to draw a golden luck entry. Would you like to proceed?]
Hearing the voice in his mind, Lin Ang smirked.
“Oh? Another prize draw?”
“I’ve cut off so much luck from Lu Ming. I wonder what reward I’ll get this time.”
Without hesitation, Lin Ang chose to initiate the draw.
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the golden entry: Coexistence of Cultivation Techniques.]
He glanced at his personal information and saw a new golden luck entry.
[Golden Luck – Coexistence of Cultivation Techniques]: You can practice multiple techniques simultaneously, and their effects will stack, granting you enhanced abilities.
In the cultivation world he inhabited, one could typically only practice one cultivation technique at a time. To think that this new golden entry allowed him to master multiple techniques was an extraordinary boon!
Lin Ang chuckled. “Lu Ming… what a gift you’ve left me. Truly beyond my expectations.”
Just then, a small figure entered the room. It was Yi Yi, Lin Ang’s personal maid.
Seeing that Qiu Ruohan was still sound asleep, Yi Yi spoke softly, “The Azure Cloud Sect is hosting a banquet for the surrounding empires. The Supreme Elder has asked if you plan to attend.”
Lin Ang thought it over.
As the Holy Son of the Azure Cloud Sect, and given the sect’s recent fortune, it would be odd for him not to participate. Not only had their territory expanded, but their Ancestor had gained another ten thousand years of life.
Nodding, Lin Ang replied, “I’ll attend. You stay here and take care of her.”
With that, Lin Ang dressed in his Daozi attire. His powerful Dao Body made his presence even more commanding, as if the very air around him was charged with energy.
Yi Yi quickly nodded. “Understood, Master.”
…
In the evening, beneath a starry sky, the Azure Cloud Sect was brightly decorated.
As the biggest victor of the recent secret realm expedition, the sect had gained countless opportunities. Moreover, they had annexed Jade Moon Sect’s vast territory, and with the reappearance of Ancestor , rumors of the sect’s decline had been dispelled.
The Azure Cloud Sect had now risen to become one of the top five superpowers in the entire Northern Realm.
To celebrate, the sect hosted a grand banquet, inviting all the surrounding empires and sects to attend.
Naturally, representatives from major empires and families were present.
“Having Lin Ang as the Holy Son of the Azure Cloud Sect is a true blessing…”
“Lin Ang is an exceptional talent. I wouldn’t be surprised if the Holy Land has already noticed him. It won’t be long before they send someone with a Holy Land gold invitation to invite him to participate in the Holy Land Election…”
The Holy Land Election was the sole pathway for top prodigies across the Kunxu Domain to enter the Holy Land.
Those who succeeded in entering would bring honor and wealth to their family or sect, as well as receive the protection and rewards of the Holy Land itself.
Today, the Shenhuang Empire had risen to its current heights under the protection of the Tianlan Holy Land, occupying vast swaths of territory in the Northern Realm.
During the banquet, Lin Ang sat lazily at a table near the end of the hall, surrounded by representatives from the top sects and families of the Azure Cloud and Jade Moon Sects.
Royal princesses, sect heirs, and young masters from prominent families all filled the space.
However, in a far corner of the hall, members of several smaller forces were seated. These individuals were from minor powers in the Azure Cloud Sect and Jade Moon Sect and had no chance of approaching Lin Ang. They sat far from the main banquet, their presence hardly noticed.
At one such table, a young man and a girl beside him smiled, enjoying the lively atmosphere.
“It’s so busy here,” said the girl, wearing a long pink dress. Her beauty drew the eye.
The young man beside her smiled and reassured her, “Don’t worry, Yao’er. I’ve already spoken to my father, and he’s agreed to our marriage.”
“When we wed, I’ll make sure to invite all these people to our wedding banquet,” he added with a warm smile.
The girl, Chen Yao’er, smiled sweetly. “Big Brother Gu Chen, you’re so kind…”
However, beneath that smile, there was an almost invisible coldness in her eyes.
From afar, Lin Ang noticed them. The young man, Gu Chen, and the girl, Chen Yao’er, seemed very much in love, their affection on full display.
Yet, what caught Lin Ang’s attention was the golden aura of luck surrounding Gu Chen.
[Name]: Gu Chen
[Loyalty]: 50. While he hasn’t met Lin Ang in person, he greatly admires the Holy Son of the Azure Cloud Sect.
[Purple Luck – Born with Dual Bloodlines]: Gu Chen possesses two bloodlines, with one hidden: the Emperor’s Bloodline.
[Black Misfortune – Vengeful Protagonist]: One week after his wedding, Gu Chen will be poisoned by his fiancée, Chen Yao’er, his bloodlines stolen. Reduced to a cripple, he will fall from grace. Pursued and nearly killed, he will escape to a cliff and fall into despair.
[Golden Luck – Immortal Emperor]: At the bottom of the ‘Broken Moon Cliff,’ Gu Chen will stumble upon the Immortal Emperor’s Sutra and awaken his Emperor’s Bloodline. From there, he will rise to power and eventually become the ruler of a great empire.
Lin Ang’s eyes flickered toward Chen Yao’er. She seemed affectionate toward Gu Chen, but her true intentions were revealed in her luck entry:
[Name]: Chen Yao’er
[Luck Entry – Female Villain]: Gu Chen’s fiancée, but secretly the lover of Gu Cangqing, Gu Chen’s father and the contemporary ruler of the Ancient God Empire. She has already given herself to Gu Cangqing.
[Purple Luck – Empress of the Empire]: Soon to become the wife of Gu Cangqing and the empress of the empire. After many years, when Gu Cangqing dies, she will take the throne as Empress.
[Black Misfortune – Karma]: On the day of her wedding, Chen Yao’er will steal Gu Chen’s bloodlines. Years later, after she has risen to power, Gu Chen will exact his revenge upon her.
Lin Ang frowned slightly.
What a tangled web of fate…
This Gu Chen seemed doomed to a tragic downfall, betrayed by both his father and his fiancée.
But what intrigued Lin Ang the most was Gu Chen’s potential to rise again and his connection to the “Immortal Emperor’s Sutra.”

Just because he left a strong impression before her death, he managed to bag her 😅
That’s why these protagonists are so hateful with their ease to win heroines
But atleast his actions and style were much tasteful rather than desperate pursuit of that previous protagonist Lin Ming guy 😅
