Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 2225: Chapter 2226: Intoxication and Oblivion (Part 1)

Just not far from the Drunken Life Pavilion, there is an exquisite courtyard named Dream Death Courtyard.

Together with the Drunken Life Pavilion, it is famously known as Drunken Life, Dream Death.

However, unlike the Drunken Life Pavilion which welcomes gamblers from all corners, the Dream Death Courtyard never opens its doors to guests. Thus, there are rumors saying the Dream Death Courtyard is where the Drunken Life Pavilion stores its massive wealth, with countless treasures inside.

But through the memories of Song Moke, who was swallowed by Taotie, and others like He Yunxi, it can be known that the Dream Death Courtyard is actually the place where the Drunken Life Pavilion imprisons its captives.

Calling them captives, many are actually guests who incurred massive gambling debts at the Drunken Life Pavilion and couldn’t repay them.

They are only released when their family or sects pay enough ransom.

The Shadow Turtle Race and Lü Yangyan’s sister are also held here.

However, when Xue An and others arrived at the Dream Death Courtyard, the guards responsible for watching over it had long fled, leaving only an empty courtyard.

Pushing the door open and walking inside, they found the place in severe disarray, clearly indicating how frantic the guards were when they fled.

Lü Yangyan’s expression became increasingly agitated.

"Where is my sister?"

"Don’t worry, you will see her soon enough!"

Saying so, Xue An walked to a spot in the middle courtyard and stomped sharply.

Boom!

The ground trembled, followed by a series of cracking noises and a wall in the central courtyard flipped over, revealing a downward extending tunnel.

"This is the entrance to the dungeon where they are held!"

Upon hearing this, Lü Yangyan impatiently rushed inside, Xue An let Yue Qinghuan stay above while he followed with Taotie in tow.

Very soon.

After traversing a long stairway, the space opened up to reveal a huge prison.

Glowing jade was inlaid on the prison walls, making the illumination not too dim.

And within those segmented cells, many people were imprisoned.

Upon seeing Xue An and Lü Yangyan, these people rushed to the cell doors, shouting loudly.

"Spare me, my lord, I am willing to serve you tirelessly, just please don’t keep me locked up here, I’m going insane!"

"Yes! I don’t even have a Spirit Stone now, keeping me here is useless until I die!"

Looking at these shouting people, Xue An found them all in tattered clothes, spirits desolate, seemingly all having their powers sealed by some Secret Technique.

But among these people, there was no sight of the Shadow Turtle Race or Lü Yangyan’s sister.

This made Lü Yangyan’s expression grow even more agitated.

"Where is my sister?"

Xue An did not directly respond to him but walked to a cell door, looking at the people who were watching him with hopeful eyes.

"Have any of you seen a young girl or a group of beasts?"

Faced with Xue An’s query, these people suddenly became calm, looked at each other, and simultaneously shook their heads.

"Haven’t seen!"

Despite saying so, the expressions on their faces were all unnatural.

Light flashed in Xue An’s eyes, "Really haven’t seen?"

"No!"

"Alright then, stay here, and I must tell you, this place is now abandoned. Once we leave, you’ll have no more chances to get out!"

Saying this, Xue An turned to leave.

This made the group anxious, and one man finally couldn’t hold back, rushing to the door and shouting: "Wait!"

Xue An stopped his steps.

The man scrutinized Xue An for a moment and then spoke slowly: "You are not from the Drunken Life Pavilion; who exactly are you?"

Xue An smiled slightly, "Drunken Life Pavilion? No, the Drunken Life Pavilion now no longer exists, so who do you think I am?"

Upon hearing this, the group was greatly shocked.

"Impossible! The Drunken Life Pavilion has strong backing, how can a mere Half-step Immortal Venerate deal with them?"

"That’s right, this kid must be lying!"

Amid these noisy voices, Xue An turned and signaled Taotie with his eyes.

Taotie understood, immediately roared loudly, simultaneously revealing its might.

This might astonished the people, making them retreat repeatedly, especially the man who had just stopped Xue An, whose eyes showed endless horror.

"Taotie! It’s actually the ancient fierce beast Taotie!"

Xue An chuckled lightly, "That’s right, Taotie!"

Then Xue An told Taotie, "Alright, don’t shout so loudly, what if you frighten them further!"

"Yes, master!" Taotie immediately bowed and retreated.

This made the whole group open their eyes wide, their faces full of disbelief.

After all, Taotie is one of the ancient four fierce beasts, never heard of anyone who could tame it, but now this extremely ferocious beast addresses the young man as its master.

This sounds utterly unbelievable.

However, those who are held here are obviously not easy prey.

Though their powers are sealed, their vision and insight remain.

Especially this man, whose eyes also showed cautious gravity when looking at Xue An.

Because in his mind, this young man’s background is clearly extremely mysterious, otherwise impossible to have such a fierce beast as a servant.

"Now do you believe?" Xue An asked calmly.

After weighing the pros and cons, the man finally gritted his teeth, "Alright! I will trust you once. The girl and the beasts you mentioned, I have indeed seen, but they were taken away three days ago!"

"Taken away? Where to? By whom?" Lü Yangyan asked excitedly.

Terror showed in the man’s eyes, and then he took a deep breath and said: "By an extremely powerful being; the guards here all call him Lord Middle, as for where they were taken, I don’t know!"

Upon hearing this, Taotie’s expression changed drastically, "Middle Lord? Are you referring to Lord Yuehua?"

"Yes, yes, they call this person just so! Although I haven’t seen his true face, just from his aura, it’s apparent that his power is extraordinary!"

"So you just didn’t want to say it earlier?" Xue An suddenly sighed softly.

"Exactly!" The man nodded, his face a bit unsightly as he said.

"After all, at his level, possessing countless secret techniques, any random discussion might be known by him!"

"Then why are you willing to speak now?" Xue An chuckled.

"Because I want to get out!" the man responded firmly.

Xue An nodded, "Very well, since you’ve spoken, I will let you out!"

The man was ecstatic, "Thank you!"

But his voice had just fallen when suddenly a cold snort echoed in everyone’s ears.

"Do you really think you can get out?"

Upon hearing this, everyone, including Taotie, changed color collectively.
