Chapter 2171 - 2172: An Yan’s Origins (Part 2)
Chapter 2171: Chapter 2172: An Yan’s Origins (Part 2)
The mere pressure rendered Xue An unable to stand, indicating just how terrifying the opponent’s strength was.
It could be said that if it weren’t for the sudden emergence of that aura from within An Yan, even Xue An would have been defeated.
And having witnessed that scene with his own eyes, Xue An finally understood many things.
He had previously wondered why the Abyssal Master had gone out of his way to place a seal on An Yan.
When interrogating the Abyssal Master, he was told that someone had specifically ordered him to do so.
At that time, An Yan was just an ordinary person.
This was suspicious from the start.
The key point was that Xue An suddenly thought of Xiang Xiang and Nian Nian’s talents.
In the past, Xue An believed it was due to his own bloodline that Xiang Xiang and Nian Nian had such exceptional talents, but now he had changed his mind.
Even though he had reached the state of a half-step Immortal Venerate, standing on the brink of regaining his peak strength, he still could not detect any anomaly from An Yan.
Neither in her body nor soul was there any trace of that aura.
If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, Xue An would have thought that aura was just his imagination.
This also indicated that An Yan’s origins were more powerful and complex than he had imagined.
Perhaps even surpassing his own.
This explained many of the strange things occurring around An Yan.
Like her mysterious seal, her seemingly joke-like training speed, and her effortless advancements...
Thinking of these, a wry smile appeared on Xue An’s face.
"Yan’er, it seems the An Family was right. I’ve been overreaching all along!"
Of course, An Yan had no response, still asleep.
Xue An’s eyes grew slightly moist, but he took a deep breath and waved his hand.
"Gather!"
Boom!
Countless streams of spiritual energy rushed from all directions. Fortunately, it was a void space here, or the sheer force could shatter stars.
Yet, no matter how violent the spiritual energy was, it became docile before Xue An. He pointed towards An Yan with a finger.
The spiritual energy began pouring into An Yan’s sea of consciousness through her forehead.
How fast was this influx?
Let’s put it this way, in the blink of an eye, it could obliterate a Great Luo Powerful One.
However, even with so much spiritual energy entering An Yan, it caused not even a ripple.
Instead, enormous suction emerged from An Yan’s sea of consciousness.
In an instant, the already surging influxes became even more rampant, forming a giant vortex above her head.
The spiritual energy roared, pouring fiercely in, reaching astronomical amounts in an instant.
This created a vacuum in a certain range, even dimming stars hundreds of light-years away due to the spiritual energy depletion.
Xue An held the two little girls’ hands as they stepped back, watching silently.
After a long while, Nian Nian couldn’t help but speak.
"Dad!"
"Hmm?"
"When will Mom wake up?"
"Very soon!" Xue An whispered.
"Will Mom become a superhero when she wakes up?"
Nian Nian, having understood what was happening and assured that her mom was fine, felt relieved.
Xue An looked down with a smile, "What? Do you want Mom to be a superhero?"
Nian Nian nodded vigorously, "Mm-hm!"
"Why?"
"Because then, Dad, you won’t have to be so tired like before!" Nian Nian said.
Xue An was taken aback.
He had never expected Nian Nian to say such a thing.
Just then, Nian Nian lowered her head, her tone turning somber.
"Dad, you don’t know how scared me and sister were! Especially when we saw you become a skeleton fighting those bad guys, we were really scared!"
Xiang Xiang didn’t say anything, but the tears in her eyes said it all.
Xue An took a deep breath, then clenched his daughter’s small hands.
"Don’t worry, Daddy won’t let that happen again!"
Suddenly, the two little girls shouted simultaneously.
"Dad!"
"Hmm?"
"You’re a big hero!" they said in unison.
Xue An was momentarily stunned, then smiled warmly.
"Thank you!"
At that moment, Xue An felt everything he had done was worthwhile.
Not for The Multiverse, nor for all beings.
But for his two adorable daughters.
Just then, the influx of spiritual energy suddenly began to slow.
Xue An immediately stepped forward, speaking softly, "Yan’er!"
An Yan’s eyelashes quivered slightly before she finally opened her eyes.
Upon seeing Xue An and the two daughters, she was momentarily dazed, then asked, "Are we... are we dead?"
Xue An smiled slightly, then gently pinched An Yan’s cheek, "Of course not. On the contrary... we won!"
"We won?"
At this, An Yan suddenly recalled something, leaping up, and nervously grabbing Xue An’s arm, examining him closely.
Xue An didn’t say anything, just waited quietly.
After a moment, An Yan finally looked up, "We really won?"
"Of course!"
"Then you... why do you have no injuries?" An Yan asked, bewildered.
In her memory, the last scene was a colossal finger extending from some unknown place.
The finger was so terrifying that Xue An was powerless against it.
Then she remembered nothing.
Seeing the confusion on An Yan’s face, Xue An smiled slightly, "I have no injuries because the one who repelled the enemy was you!"
Moments later, An Yan stared at Xue An, dumbfounded.
"Are you telling the truth? Am I really that strong?"
Xue An nodded earnestly, "Of course it’s true. If you don’t believe me, ask Xiang Xiang and Nian Nian!"
The two little girls were excited and eagerly chimed in.
"Yes, Mom, you were amazing; you defeated those bad guys in no time!"
"But I... I didn’t feel anything," An Yan still found it hard to believe.
To her feeling, it was as though she had just taken a nap, unaware of anything around her.
"Does your strength feel unchanged?" Xue An asked.
Hearing this, An Yan carefully sensed her power, then shook her head, "It’s the same as before, no change at all!"
A light flashed in Xue An’s eyes, "That’s the most unusual part. You know, the spiritual energy you absorbed is enough to elevate someone to an Immortal King!"
"And yet you feel nothing. Where did all that energy go?"
