Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 2446: Chapter 2447: Drink This Cup Together

Shen Family.

The flames danced cheerfully, causing the warmth of the wine in the cups to rise in gentle wisps.

The entire hall was silent.

Shen Gaoge finally couldn’t help but lean towards his sister Shen Hongyi seated beside him and whisper.

"Sister, can the second young master really return so quickly?"

Shen Hongyi looked forward calmly and said, "Why? You think it’s impossible?"

"Of course not, I just feel that the time is really tight, and not to mention anything else, just the distance between us and the Pharmacists’ Alliance is extremely far..."

Shen Gaoge did not continue speaking, but the implication was clear.

No matter how strong the second young master’s skills are, he still couldn’t cover this long distance and return in such a short time!

But after hearing his words, Shen Hongyi slightly turned her eyes and glanced at him, only to give a soft sigh.

"Do you know why your achievements in Sword Dao have not progressed much?"

"Why?"

"It’s because your vision is too narrow, so narrow it can only accommodate the sword in your hand and cannot see others!"

Shen Gaoge’s face showed embarrassment, but his eyes revealed a hint of disobedience.

Although he has always respected and feared his sister, usually not daring to easily rebut her, this time it felt like being pointed at by Shen Hongyi for being too weak.

To an arrogant Sword Cultivator, that’s simply unacceptable.

"Why? Not convinced? Alright, do you have the courage to make a bet with me?"

"Bet on what?"

"If the wine in the cup on the table hasn’t disappeared and the second young master hasn’t returned, then I’ll admit defeat and never call you a failure again, how’s that?"

Shen Gaoge’s eyes lit up, but he cautiously said, "What if he returns?"

"If he returns..." Shen Hongyi’s lips curled with a meaningful smile, "Then you must willingly admit you are indeed a failure! And you must announce it in front of everyone!"

Seeing the smile on his sister’s face, Shen Gaoge’s whole body stiffened, his face turning somewhat pale.

He was all too familiar with that smile as her elder brother.

Whenever it appears, it often means he is about to fall into a trap.

So a multitude of thoughts flashed through his mind instantly.

What is going on?

Could it really be as sister says, that the second young master can return on time?

But is that truly possible?

These thoughts swirled continuously in his mind, leaving him hesitant and speechless.

Seeing this scene, Shen Hongyi couldn’t help but sneer.

"Since you lack the courage, don’t speak nonsense. I’ll be honest with you; the second young master, after coming out from seclusion this time, has reached a height you cannot comprehend, what you think impossible might not be a problem for him at all!"

Upon hearing his sister’s words, Shen Gaoge broke out in a cold sweat.

A height even he couldn’t comprehend...

Could it be...

Just as his expression was rapidly changing, suddenly cracks appeared in the void in the middle of the hall, followed by a sudden shattering.

Then Shen Muyu walked out gracefully from within.

His appearance caused a wave of shock throughout the vast hall.

Because not a few people shared Shen Gaoge’s thoughts.

They all believed that given such a distant location, it was impossible for the second young master to return so quickly.

Yet the reality before them directly shattered their perception.

"It’s the second young master!"

"Indeed, the second young master has returned!"

"Oh my, to traverse such a distant path and return so quickly is unimaginable!"

"The wine on the table hasn’t even cooled, this truly is warm wine in waiting!"

Amidst a slew of exclamations, Shen Muyu stood tall, clasping his fists toward the family head and store manager on the high platform.

"Family Head, Store Manager, Muyu has returned!"

"Good! Good! You’ve returned swiftly! The banquet is ready, take your seat!" The store manager said with a smile.

"Yes!"

The Store Manager and Family Head never inquired about the details during the entire time.

Because with their expertise, they could naturally tell Shen Muyu had no scent of blood upon him, indicating he had not fought.

Indeed.

Once seated, Shen Muyu gently drank a cup of wine then put the cup down.

"Family Head, Store Manager, I have confirmed during this trip that the Shen Family Sword Heart held by Xue An was indeed not plundered and was very possibly gifted by a Shen Family descendant on their deathbed!"

This statement caused a wave of astonishment throughout the hall.

"How is that possible? That Shen Family Sword Heart is so valuable, how could anyone gift such an item to an outsider?" someone said, full of disbelief.

Even Shen Hongyi cast the second young master a puzzled glance.

She too didn’t believe the item was genuinely given to Xue An.

The Store Manager wasn’t rushed, until the situation in the hall slightly calmed, he then said with a smile.

"Oh? You say this means you already have evidence?"

Shen Muyu nodded, "Right, because I’ve touched the sword heart myself and didn’t sense even a hint of resentment within it, instead it showed attachment to Xue An, and even eventually broke free from my control to return to his side!"

"Oh?" The Store Manager’s eyes lit up.

"You say the sword heart was able to break free from your control?"

"Yes! I was slightly surprised at the time!"

The Store Manager fell into silent contemplation as if considering something.

The Family Head beside suddenly asked, "Then how capable is this Xue An exactly?"

Shen Muyu smiled, "His realm is high, but his strength is worthless!"

"Still that assessment, huh?" The mist surrounding the Family Head stirred.

Shen Muyu nodded, "Yes, initially I did not believe anyone’s realm could surpass their strength, but after seeing him, I believed, because his realm is so high, he could even hurt me with a thread of Sword Intent while in seclusion!"

"What?"

Both the Family Head and Store Manager exclaimed in surprise.

The hall was in an uproar.

Since coming of age, the second young master Shen Muyu had never tasted defeat, let alone injury.

No one expected him to be hurt by a seemingly insignificant person this time, which was beyond shocking.

Yet Shen Gaoge’s eyes gleamed with delight as he glanced around.

That meant he did not want to hear he was a failure anymore, didn’t they see the second young master didn’t gain anything against Xue An either?

Amidst the excitement, Shen Muyu gently filled a cup of wine then slowly drank it.

After drinking, he toyed with the cup in his hand, speaking calmly.

"However, there’s no need for you to care too much about this matter, I’ve already issued a challenge letter to him. During the Bai Family gathering, I will cut him down before the eyes of the world, restoring the Shen Family’s undefeated Golden Body!"

His words were filled with irrefutable strong confidence.

Everyone quieted down following his words; a hint of a smile appeared on the Store Manager’s face as he raised his cup.

"Good, since that’s the case, let’s all drink to this!"
