Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 2196: Chapter 2197: The Drunken Life Pavilion

Linglong City is not very far from Bead City, and with the speed of Xue An and Yue Qinghuan, it would take at most half a day to reach.

Yet it took them a full two days to enter the vicinity of Linglong City, for the simple reason that the people heading to Linglong City ahead were far too numerous.

So numerous that it caused a traffic jam on the road!

Indeed!

A literal traffic jam!

The road was packed with countless Starships flying closely one after another, including many gigantic Flying Boats as tall as giants, slowly moving forward like giant whales flying through the sky.

Not to mention that these Flying Boats alone have squeezed the already broad roadway completely.

Let alone those who are traversing on foot, adding to the extreme lively atmosphere of the journey.

Even Xue An and Yue Qinghuan could only proceed slowly with the crowd.

Finally!

The outline of a city loomed in the distance ahead.

Even though it was just a blurry silhouette, the sense of magnificence and grandeur could still be felt.

The crowd began to get excited.

"Is that the renowned Linglong City? It truly lives up to its reputation!" someone exclaimed excitedly.

"Indeed, worthy of being the world’s premier gambling city; even the city itself resembles a die!" another marveled.

That’s right!

This Linglong City, at first glance, resembles a near-perfect tetrahedron with a gate on each of its four-facing walls.

The plaques above the gates bear numbers, in order: two, three, four, five.

And if you were to fly up and look down, you’d find that the entire ground architecture of Linglong City is arranged in some order, forming a huge character resembling the number six.

As for the one.

Upon entering the city gate and looking up, you’ll discover at the top of the highest building, there is a sun-like device emitting a warm glow.

This is the one!

So some say that Linglong City was built in the likeness of a die.

Xue An and Yue Qinghuan followed the crowd into the city gate, standing on the bustling main street, looking at the densely dotted gambling parlors lining the street, they couldn’t help but sigh a little.

"It’s really lively! But is gambling actually that interesting? To attract so many formidable figures?"

Watching the descent of several exceptionally powerful figures from a giant Flying Boat in the distance, each at least at the Immortal Venerable Peak level, Yue Qinghuan couldn’t quite understand.

Xue An retracted his gaze and smiled slightly, "It’s not the gambling that’s interesting, but the thrill that gambling brings! So, is this your first time here too?"

Yue Qinghuan nodded, "Yes, my family never allowed me to come to places like this before!"

"Then you can leave now, anyway, this matter can be handled by myself alone!" Xue An stated calmly.

"No way!" Yue Qinghuan responded firmly, "Don’t think you can shake me off, since I’ve encountered this matter, I must see it through to the end. A descendant of the Bing Family cannot give up halfway!"

Xue An didn’t respond immediately but silently watched Yue Qinghuan, until the latter felt slightly uneasy being watched, and uncomfortably asked, "What are you looking at me for?"

He then chuckled softly, "You’re right, but why do I feel like you’re quite excited?"

"Am I excited? No, that must be your misconception! How could I be excited?" Yue Qinghuan quickly lowered her gaze, trying to hide her eyes.

"Alright, whether you’re excited or not, since you don’t want to leave, follow me then!" Xue An said frankly, turning around to venture deeper into the streets.

Only then did Yue Qinghuan relax a bit, discreetly glancing around, eyes filled with curiosity and excitement, softly murmuring to herself.

"Is this the gambling city my brother always told me not to step into? I shall see what special allure it has, to captivate so many people endlessly."

After speaking, she eagerly followed.

The Drunken Life Pavilion!

The most prestigious gambling parlor in Linglong City, located at the golden center of the city, and the place where Zhang Pengtian lost the entire Bead City before.

At this moment.

Xue An and Yue Qinghuan stood some distance away from this lavish and opulent paradise of wealth.

Though separated by a distance, the sounds of laughter, the clattering of dice, gasps, curses, and flirtatious laughter of women could still be faintly heard.

Xue An stood still, and naturally, Yue Qinghuan had to accompany him.

The two of them stood by the roadside, drawing many curious looks.

Particularly, many had their eyes brightened upon seeing Yue Qinghuan, a beauty among beauties.

Some even wanted to approach and chat, but were scared off by the cold look on Yue Qinghuan’s face.

However, standing here forever wasn’t viable, and Yue Qinghuan couldn’t help but ask softly, "Why are we standing here? Why not go in?"

Hearing her, Xue An glanced at her and said calmly, "In such a hurry?"

"Of course, I’m anxious! Standing here for too long, people are looking at me improperly, as if I’m some kind of wandering woman!" Yue Qinghuan complained unhappily.

Upon hearing this, Xue An chuckled, "Alright, let’s go in now!"

With those words, Xue An stepped forward.

At this point, it was the busiest time of the day at The Drunken Life Pavilion.

Gamblers from all directions crowded the grand entrance of The Drunken Life Pavilion.

Guards tasked with maintaining order were stationed at the entrance.

Despite this, the progress was still slow.

But a small door stood conspicuously not far from the main entrance.

In contrast to the bustle of the main gate, the small door appeared quiet and tranquil, very leisurely.

Only occasionally, powerful figures dressed in splendid clothes and exuding grandeur arrived before the small door, and after a checkpoint by the guards, were allowed entry.

It was evident that this small door was accessible only to those of certain status and position.

And Xue An was heading straight for this small door.

"Please halt!"

Upon approaching, two guards blocked the path.

"May I ask, sir, if you have an invitation or pass?" one of the guards inquired politely.

However, this politeness contained a hint of condescending indifference, making it uncomfortable.

Xue An glanced at him blandly, "What invitation?"

"Then you do not have one? I’m sorry, sir, this small door is a VIP passage to The Drunken Life Pavilion. If you do not have an invitation or a pass, you are not eligible to enter! So please leave here and do not block the way!"

Upon hearing Xue An’s response, even the last trace of a smile vanished from this guard’s face, as he spoke in a rather overbearing tone.
