Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 2348: Chapter 2349: Crisis on All Sides (Second Update)

Meanwhile, the main estate of the Yue Clan was shrouded in an atmosphere of gloom and despair.

The Family Head had fallen, and the Yue Clan, already akin to a floating duckweed in the wind without the protection of a powerful guardian, now seemed even more directionless.

Adding to this was Xue An’s "sudden betrayal" and the ambiguous attitude of the Second Lady, which further dimmed the prospects of the Yue Clan.

At least, the hearts of Yue Hechang, Yue Junze, and others became heavy with unease.

"Junze!" Yue Hechang said in a deep voice.

"Present!"

"As of now, the Yue Clan is bereft of capable individuals; Xue An is no longer reliable, and everything must depend on us. Therefore, I declare that from this moment, the Yue Clan will enter lockdown mode. Everyone must be on high alert, understood?"

"Understood!" Yue Junze responded solemnly.

After speaking, Yue Hechang hurriedly departed.

Given the current state of the Yue Clan, there were far too many matters that needed his attention.

In just a few days, the usually well-maintained Yue Hechang began to show strands of gray hair at his temples.

Moreover, it wasn’t just him; all the men in the Yue Clan were now prepared for the worst.

They knew the tests ahead would undoubtedly be even more severe.

Indeed.

Not three days passed before someone rushed back from outside to report.

"Report to Elder Yue!"

"What is it?" Yue Hechang asked immediately.

"We just discovered fleets from the Long Family and Sima Family appearing in the void before our branch veins!"

"What?"

With this news, everyone was startled.

Yue Hechang quickly rose, "Did you see them clearly? Are you sure it’s the Long Family and Sima Family?"

"How could I dare joke about something like this? I’m sure it’s people from the Long Family and Sima Family. Here’s the water screen image as proof."

Yue Hechang immediately waved his hand, and the water screen image opened.

Indeed.

Two menacing fleets appeared in the vast void of space, and the emblems of the Long Family and Sima Family were prominently stamped on the lead flagships.

Yue Hechang’s expression instantly turned grim, and he gritted his teeth, "Long Yushu, Sima Chongzhao, you really are relentless!"

Yue Junze then spoke in a deep voice, "Father, should we engage now?"

"Don’t rush." Yue Hechang stopped Yue Junze and spoke in a deep voice.

"The people from the Long Family and Sima Family are clearly testing us now; they want us to lose our composure and strike first to seize the initiative."

"What should we do then? Are we just going to watch their fleets swagger around our doorstep?" Yue Junze said, burning with anger.

Yue Hechang pondered for a moment and coldly declared, "Men, follow me to investigate the situation at our doorstep!"

Upon these words, dozens of elders eagerly volunteered.

"I’ll go!"

"Count me in!"

"Damn it, the Long Family and Sima Family are simply overbearing, let’s take them on!"

"Good! Follow me!"

Yue Hechang immediately soared into the sky, flying into the void.

Many elders followed behind.

The entire process didn’t disturb the Second Lady in the backyard.

For in Yue Hechang’s view, with her ambiguous attitude at the funeral, the Second Lady was evidently no longer reliable.

The calamity facing the Yue Clan now must be endured by the Yue family members themselves.

Soon enough.

They arrived in the void before the branch veins.

Indeed.

In the void not far ahead, two massive fleets were arrogantly patrolling.

Yue Hechang’s expression grew increasingly grim.

Such behavior was akin to displaying weapons at one’s doorstep, an extremely serious provocation.

But he forced himself to quell his anger, stepped forward, and spoke in a deep voice, "Elder of the Yue Family, Yue Hechang, awaits the arrival of the Long Family Head and Sima Family Head!"

The voice spread out in the form of Divine Sense.

Quickly, lights appeared on the two leading flagships, but Long Yushu and Sima Chongzhao did not appear, merely replying with icy voices.

"Oh? So it’s Elder Yue Hechang. What’s the issue?" spoke Long Yushu.

As for Sima Chongzhao, he merely sneered without speaking.

This act was naked discrimination; after all, they instigated the provocation, only to now question Yue Hechang’s purpose.

Yue Hechang’s eyelids twitched wildly, but he forced himself to remain calm, "I wonder, what is the intention behind the two families patrolling before our Yue branch veins?"

"Haha! Elder Yue, you’re mistaken!"

As the voice faded, a virtual image appeared on the flagship of the Long Family, it was Long Yushu sneering coldly.

"Our two families are merely conducting routine drills, how is it patrolling before your branch veins?"

With these words, the Yue Clan members revealed expressions of anger.

This went beyond sophistry; it was blatant lies.

Yue Hechang couldn’t restrain himself anymore and, after several cold laughs, raised his head to ask.

"Oh? Routine drills? What a coincidence, our Family Head just passed, yet you’re conducting routine drills at our doorstep?"

"What do you mean by your doorstep? This void is unclaimed territory, and we have never set foot into your Yue Domain even a step!" Long Yushu responded coldly.

Yue Hechang was momentarily speechless.

Because what Long Yushu said was true.

Though their fleets had been circling before the branch veins, they hadn’t entered the Yue Clan’s airspace.

Yue Hechang’s face was now darkened.

Compared to provocation, this blatant insult was far more infuriating.

If possible, he would unleash his fury right now and crush the fleets of those two families.

But rational thoughts told him that was impossible.

Because the strength of Long Yushu and Sima Chongzhao far exceeded his own.

So he could only forcibly suppress his blood boiling with anger, "Ah, I see. Then please carry on, I hope your drills succeed perfectly. But let me forewarn you!"

Yue Hechang paused, then with a fierce glare said, "If you dare set foot into the Yue Domain even a step, don’t blame us for being rude!"

"Haha!" Long Yushu sneered, remained silent, and dispersed the virtual image from the ship’s top, beginning to practice in earnest.

Yue Hechang stood in place watching coldly and then quietly said to Yue Junze at his side, "Junze, you should go back now and immediately transfer all the minors in the family to the Training Ground!"

Yue Junze was taken aback, then understood, and said sorrowfully, "Father, you’d better go, leave this to me!"

"Fool! Do as I say. What can you achieve by guarding here? Just get lost!" Yue Hechang suddenly roared in rage, speaking in a low voice.

Yue Junze, helpless, could only nod tearfully at Yue Hechang before turning to leave.
