Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 2502: Chapter 2503: Earth Veins

"Xue An?" Yue Qinghuan shouted in surprise and joy, then pushed open the window.

Sure enough.

They saw Xue An standing in the courtyard, smiling as he looked at them.

The three of them immediately flew out of the window, and Yue Qinghuan impatiently asked, "Are you okay?!"

Xue An shook his head. "Do I look like something happened to me?"

"Phew, the moon in the sky suddenly disappeared just now, it really scared us to death. We thought you weren’t coming back!"

After confirming that Xue An really wasn’t injured, Yue Qinghuan couldn’t help but let out a long sigh of relief.

Xue An smiled. "Don’t worry. The fact that I went means I was fully prepared. Besides, even if we had really started fighting, that Lord Yuehua is on the same level as me. Why would I be afraid of him?"

Hearing this, Yue Qinghuan clearly wanted to spit at him, but when the words reached her lips, they turned into a smile instead.

"Listen to you brag."

Xue An chuckled, then said a few more reassuring words before Yue Qinghuan finally left.

After she left, Yangjian said calmly, "Xiao Tian, go see if that girl from the Ghost Nation has come back yet."

"I specifically checked when I went downstairs just now. The room was completely empty, clearly she still hasn’t returned!"

In fact, starting from noon yesterday, that heir of the corpse-driving clan had left the teahouse, and had not returned even now.

"Young Master, do you want me to go look for her?"

Yangjian shook his head. "No need. Our relationship with her is only cooperative. Her leaving clearly has its reasons. Let her do as she wishes. You’ve been busy all night as well, go down and rest."

"Yes!" Although Xiao Tian still wanted to say something, seeing that Yangjian obviously had something to discuss with Xue An, he turned and left.

After he left, Yangjian’s expression grew solemn. "Well? Did it work?"

Xue An shook his head.

Yangjian sighed. "I knew it would turn out like this. After all, that City Lord’s Mansion has been constructed and reinforced over many generations; it’s practically impregnable. If it didn’t work, then it didn’t work. But what was with that sudden disappearance of the moonlight just now? That was clearly Lord Yuehua’s killing move! Did you fight him?"

"No. In fact, although I didn’t succeed this time, I did get an unexpected gain."

As he spoke, Xue An recounted everything that had happened after he entered the City Lord’s Mansion.

He especially focused on the matter concerning Shen Jingshu.

After listening, Yangjian’s expression changed drastically, and he kept saying, "So that’s how it is, so that’s how it is!"

Then he solemnly said to Xue An, "During that great war back then, there really was an unknown female Sword Cultivator who descended from the heavens to aid our Hua Clan. She must be that discarded disciple of the Shen Family, Shen Jingshu!"

As he spoke, Yangjian sighed with emotion. "The moment that woman appeared, she displayed earth-shattering strength, helping us repel powerful enemies several times. But when we gratefully asked for her name, she refused to reveal anything. Only now do we finally know her true identity!"

Xue An slightly raised his brows at this. "That doesn’t sound right. According to Lord Yuehua, Shen Jingshu once went to Earth and had contact with the Deities of the Hua Clan at the time. How is it that none of you know her?"

Yangjian gave a bitter smile. "Everything was already in chaos back then. Who could tell who was who? At least I never saw this Miss Shen before."

"Then what was this Miss Shen’s final outcome?"

Yangjian shook his head. "I’m not too sure about that either. I only saw her once on the battlefield, and never again after that. Later when the Hua Clan was defeated, I was imprisoned by Lord Lihen, so whether she’s alive or dead, I have no idea."

Xue An’s gaze flickered as he fell into deep thought.

Back then, when Lord Yuehua headed to Earth, he only discovered fluctuations of her Sword Qi and never saw her corpse with his own eyes. On top of that, the later appearance of Shen Suqian was full of mysteries as well.

Unfortunately, there was too little information at hand right now. It was impossible to deduce whether this remarkable woman of the Shen Family was alive or dead, or where she had ended up.

Just then, Yangjian let out a soft sigh.

"Although we failed to use that grand formation in the City Lord’s Mansion to scan the entire city, from the fact that the evil entities were willing to pay any price to strike at Lord Yuehua, we can tell at least that he stands on the opposite side from them. The enemy of our enemy is a friend. I’m sure you understand this."

"Mm, that much I naturally understand," Xue An answered.

Yangjian left.

His physical condition was not very good at the moment. The binge drinking the night before last, combined with staying up all night, had already pushed him to his limit. So after saying his piece, he went back to his room early to rest.

When only Xue An was left in the small courtyard, he stood in silence for a moment, then took out that portrait from his robe.

The woman in the painting was still as gentle and demure as ever.

But as Xue An studied it, a look of contemplation slowly appeared on his face.

He remembered very clearly what Lord Yuehua had said to him before leaving.

Why had he deliberately reminded him to look at this portrait more?

Could there be some hidden secret within it?

After carefully observing for a while, Xue An confirmed that there was nothing unusual about the paper itself, so he split off a strand of Divine Sense and sent it into the painting.

Boom!

The instant his Divine Sense made contact with the portrait, Xue An felt as if something exploded in his sea of consciousness, and then a strange scene unfolded before his eyes.

He saw Yunxiao City beneath his feet gradually turning transparent, revealing countless hair-thin veins below.

These veins were integrated with the entire city, many of them converging into mighty rivers, meandering underground beneath Yunxiao City.

Xue An’s heart stirred, for he could tell that these veins were precisely the hidden earth meridians beneath Yunxiao City.

The so-called earth meridians are the directions in which Spiritual Energy flows beneath blessed lands and caves.

Any high-level city must be built according to the convergence of these earth meridians.

And once you grasp the flow of these meridians, you can monitor the entire city.

This was exactly why Xue An had previously tried to infiltrate the City Lord’s Mansion in search of that great formation.

At this moment.

Standing in the small courtyard of the teahouse, Xue An looked into the distance. The surrounding buildings had also turned transparent.

In this state, the distant City Lord’s Mansion became even more conspicuous.

Because in the darkness before dawn, a beam of radiance shot straight into the sky from within the City Lord’s Mansion.

And all the underground earth meridians ultimately converged upon that City Lord’s Mansion.

Xue An knew this was not a real scene, but a wondrous vision that existed only within his Divine Sense.

But did Lord Yuehua give him this portrait merely so he could see the city’s earth meridians clearly?

After pondering briefly, Xue An seemed to think of something. He carefully separated out a filament-thin strand of Divine Sense and extended it downward, probing into the depths beneath the ground and merging it with those earth meridians.

The instant the two became one, Xue An’s whole body trembled, and a brand-new world appeared before his eyes.
