Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 1562: Chapter 1559: There is Only One Thing to See You (Second Update)

Back on Earth, Xue An had cooked many times, but he had only used mundane ingredients, and no matter how good his cooking skills were, there was always something lacking in flavor.

This time, however, was different.

The Dragon Liver from the Demon Dragon was considered a delicacy across The Multiverse.

Adding to that, Xue An had previously looted all the supplies of Lord Lihen, which surprisingly included top-tier condiments for culinary use.

With these two factors combined, the Dragon Liver dish Xue An was cooking this time had already reached half of its previous level.

What did this level signify?

It meant that even before Xue An finished cooking, the fragrance had already filled the entire Magic Treasures Pavilion.

And on the open ground, there was a group of people squatting.

Not just the two little girls, but An Yan, Hu Ying, and Xiao Yu had all gathered around, watching the steaming pot with eager eyes.

After a while, An Yan couldn’t help but swallow a gulp and said with shining eyes, "Hubby... when will it be ready?"

"Very soon! Why? Are you getting impatient?" Xue An asked with a smile.

"A little! The aroma is just too amazing!" An Yan exclaimed in amazement, almost drooling.

"Haha! I used to wonder why I don’t crave food, yet have a foodie daughter like Nian Nian. Now I see the reason lies with you!"

Xue An chuckled while gently pinching An Yan’s nose.

An Yan let out a small whine.

Hu Ying, who was standing aside, turned her head awkwardly and coughed lightly, "Ahem, pay attention, Xiang Xiang and Nian Nian are both here!"

An Yan’s face flushed red, and she sneaked a glance at the two daughters.

She saw the two little girls squatting nearby, watching the pot with a devout look, unaware of anything happening around them.

Only after this did An Yan breathe a sigh of relief, glaring at Xue An with feigned anger.

Xue An chuckled, turned to look at the pot, and nodded, "It’s ready! The timing is just right. Let’s eat!"

The two little girls leapt up from the ground upon hearing this, especially Nian Nian, who was almost ecstatic with delight.

"Oh my, finally we can eat! Nobody better fight me for it! It’s all mine!"

Just then, a plump Jin Li suddenly swam swiftly past Nian Nian and plunged right into the steaming pot.

The place fell silent in an instant.

Xue An raised an eyebrow slightly.

"Hubby, this Jin Li can’t be..." An Yan was about to say something.

But then they saw the Jin Li floating leisurely to the surface of the pot, its belly now round and bulging, followed by a satisfied burp, having clearly gotten its fill.

Everyone let out a sigh of relief.

Only Nian Nian shouted with infinite resentment, "You fat fish, stealing the food before me again!"

While the gathering in the Magic Treasures Pavilion was bustling with activity,

on the Flying Boat, Xia Qi was standing outside Xue An’s cabin, quietly waiting.

She had been waiting for a long time.

In fact, ever since returning from the banquet, she had come to Xue An’s cabin, hoping to see him.

"Miss, it seems that the Master might have fallen asleep and won’t be coming out for a while. How about I stay here, and you go back and rest?" the middle-aged man suggested softly.

Xia Qi shook her head, "No need, and it’s better for me to wait here personally to show the sincerity of the Xia Family!"

"But..." The middle-aged man wanted to say something more.

Xia Qi calmly said, "Say no more. Do you think with this Master’s abilities, once he leaves the boat, how many families will be willing to spare no cost to attract him? And by then, what chance will the Xia Family have?"

Hearing this, the middle-aged man swallowed his remaining words and nodded helplessly, "Miss is correct!"

"Before, I misjudged and thought this Master was just an ordinary cultivator, so the invitation was casual. I almost missed a great opportunity, but fortunately, there’s still time to rectify it! Especially since there are no other family members on the Flying Boat now, this is a once-in-a-lifetime chance for the Xia Family. If we don’t seize it now... there’ll be no chance later!" Xia Qi said calmly.

Beads of cold sweat appeared on the middle-aged man’s forehead, and he lowered his head even further.

Thus, the night passed.

The next day, just as Xue An returned from the Magic Treasures Pavilion, he sensed the unusualness outside, was momentarily stunned, and then smiled faintly.

"Come in, the door’s not locked!"

The voice reached outside, and Xia Qi took a deep breath before pushing the door and entering the room.

"Master!" Xia Qi respectfully bowed to Xue An.

Xue An gazed at Xia Qi nonchalantly, then said calmly, "Speak, you’ve waited outside so long to see me, what’s the matter?"

Xia Qi solemnly replied, "Master, please first forgive my previous neglect. I never thought you would be such a powerful figure..."

Xue An waved his hand, "If you came just to say these things, then don’t say anymore!"

Xia Qi remained silent for a moment, then raised her head and said with utmost seriousness, "Master, I am here for a sole reason, to request that you become a Guest Elder of the Xia Family..."

Xue An raised an eyebrow slightly, "I thought I already made it clear before; I have no interest in your families or sects! So... I’m sorry!"

After saying that, Xue An lowered his head, basking in the leisurely art of brewing tea, clearly signaling for her to leave.

Xia Qi stood rooted in place, her eyes filled with an exceedingly complex gleam. But soon she took another deep breath and slowly said, "Master, I understand you have no interest in these, but the Xia Family is willing to offer you a reward!"

"A reward, huh, do you think..."

Before Xue An could finish his sentence, Xia Qi interrupted, "What if the reward is entry into the Lost Paradise?"

The atmosphere in the room suddenly froze. Xue An swiftly raised his eyes, slightly squinting, quietly observing the girl in front of him, whose face was pale but whose eyes were terrifyingly bright.

After a while, Xue An finally lowered his gaze and calmly said, "How did you know I want to enter the Lost Paradise?"

Hearing this, Xia Qi secretly let out a long breath; she had been calculating this guess for a long time.

Fortunately, her gamble paid off!

Therefore, she said earnestly, "It’s simple. With your power and wealth, you surely wouldn’t fancy a city like Wuwang Cliff, so your sole purpose in coming here from afar should be to enter the Lost Paradise!"

Xue An quietly watched Xia Qi, eventually smiling and nodding, "You’re right, I do plan to enter the Lost Paradise. So..."

Xue An sat up straight, his eyes sparkling as he looked at Xia Qi, "What do you mean by the reward you just mentioned?"
