Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 1558: Chapter 1555: Looting in a Fire (2nd Update)

The person responsible for patrolling the flying boat did not notice anything unusual and easily let them inside.

At that moment, a small banquet was being held on the deck of the top level of the flying boat, and all the first-class passengers were invited.

Therefore, the few of them rushed over to this location.

When they stepped into the banquet venue, they couldn’t help but be stunned by the luxurious scene.

"Damn it, compared to this place, where we live is practically like a doghouse!" said the cultivator with a pointy face and monkey-like cheeks, in a voice full of envy.

"Shh, don’t speak! Brother Liu, that’s him sitting in the corner!" Although Triangular Eyes had small eyes, they worked well enough, and with a glance, he spotted Xue An, who was sipping tea in the corner.

Following his gaze, the leader Liu scrutinized the scene carefully.

Indeed, the two were telling the truth. This young man looked quite decent but seemed unremarkable in demeanor!

Heh heh, if that’s the case, then I’ve found myself a fat sheep this time!

The more he thought about it, the more excited Liu became.

Occasionally feeling something while drinking tea, Xue An raised his head and glanced over here.

Liu was slightly startled and quickly turned his head away, contemplating what to do next.

Barging in and snatching openly was definitely not possible; it would be best to find a way to make this young man hand over his belongings willingly.

Because in Liu’s understanding, the disciples with ordinary cultivation levels in those great sects are generally useless gluttons, often becoming obedient after being scared a bit.

All right!

Let’s do it this way!

Liu secretly decided.

However, he did not notice that Xue An was watching them at that moment, with a faint smile slowly forming at the corner of his mouth.

This small banquet was hosted by the captain of the flying boat, intending to foster some relations with these first-class passengers.

Thus, when the banquet was halfway through, a middle-aged man in a black uniform, brimming with dignity, walked in.

Upon seeing him, many guests stood up to extend a welcome.

The middle-aged man waved his hand, smilingly saying, "As the captain of this flying boat, I am very grateful for everyone’s trust and support, so this cup is my toast to you all!"

After saying that, he picked up a glass and drank its contents in one go.

The venue was filled with applause, and the atmosphere became lively.

Later, the captain, smiling broadly, walked among the crowd, greeting people.

Compared to those faces appearing for the first time, the captain obviously gave more attention to familiar guests.

For instance, when he saw Xia Qi not far away, his eyes lit up, and he quickly approached her, saying respectfully, "So it’s Miss Xia, are you returning to Wuwang Cliff?"

As a frequent passenger on this ship, Xia Qi naturally recognized the captain, so she smiled and nodded.

"Yes, I handled some affairs outside and am heading back home!"

The captain praised, "Miss Xia is truly erudite and talented, becoming a pillar of your family at such a young age!"

"You are too kind!"

"Oh, it’s not flattery; who at Wuwang Cliff doesn’t know of Miss Xia’s reputation now?" the captain said with a smile.

The atmosphere on the deck grew increasingly lively.

It was at this moment that Liu led several subordinates to approach Xue An.

"Friend, you’re just drinking alone here?" said Liu with a fake smile on his face.

Xue An did not respond, nor did he even lift his head to look at them; instead, he quietly stared at the teacup on the table.

Observing this, Liu slightly frowned, but then coughed lightly, "Friend, I have some words for you, but it’s a bit inconvenient here, how about we talk outside the dining room?"

Xue An still remained silent as the tea in his cup rippled slightly.

The atmosphere suddenly became somewhat awkward.

At that moment, Triangular Eyes could not hold back and took a few steps forward, saying coldly, "Kid, our boss is talking to you, and you..."

The words remained unfinished, for at that moment, Xue An suddenly raised his head and shot him a cold glance.

It was just this glance that made Triangular Eyes feel like he had fallen into an ice cave, immediately freezing in place.

Then Xue An cast his gaze towards the faint defense barrier in the sky above the deck and murmured, "It’s coming!"

Coming?

What’s coming?

Standing further back, Liu had not noticed Triangular Eyes had turned ashen-faced and frozen.

He looked in puzzlement in the same direction as Xue An but saw nothing unusual apart from a faintly glowing barrier; the darkness remained as calm as ever.

Damn, is this guy putting on a show? Liu thought angrily in his heart, about to say something when the deck under his feet suddenly started to tremble.

Although the tremor wasn’t too intense, it silenced the bustling banquet hall instantly.

The captain, who had been chatting amiably, also paused, but then the tremor suddenly dissipated.

The captain relaxed and then cheerfully said, "Everyone, don’t worry. It must have been a temporal turbulence we encountered but now we’ve passed through it, so everything’s back to normal!"

The guests who had been tense finally relaxed upon hearing this.

But Xia Qi sensed something was wrong.

She wasn’t a newcomer on this ship and naturally knew what it was like to encounter temporal turbulence.

However, the tremor just now felt unusually peculiar.

What exactly is going on?

Confused, Xia Qi looked up at the darkness beyond the barrier.

Noticing her confusion, the captain smiled and said, "Miss Xia seemed a bit scared, but there’s no need to worry because I daresay, our ship is as solid as a rock and nothing will...!"

Almost as if in response to his words, the now-quiet ship’s body began to tremble again.

This time, the tremor was so intense that it toppled many unprepared people.

As for the tables and chairs, they overturned onto the ground.

In such circumstances, everyone’s faces changed.

The captain, who was previously assuring there’d be no trouble, turned grim and was about to rush to the control room.

But it was too late.

At that moment, someone shouted in despair, "Look outside, what’s that!"

Everyone looked up.

In the darkness beyond the barrier, a gigantic form slowly emerged, and when its enormous head appeared before everyone, they were all struck dumb.

Because what they saw was unmistakably a giant dragon.
