Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 2581: Chapter 2582: Gnashing of Teeth

It’s known that his sister is considered a great beauty, and she’s infatuated with Xue An.

At this critical moment, if Xue An loses control and has other thoughts, wouldn’t his sister suffer a great loss?

These thoughts surged into Yue Shifang’s mind instantly, becoming more likely as he thought about them, so much so that his face turned pale.

Seeing Yue Shifang’s change in expression, Zhongli Shan naturally understood the reason and smiled slightly.

"Alright, you don’t need to worry too much. If things truly happen as you imagine, it might not even be a bad thing! Otherwise, given Qing Huan’s strong-willed personality, would she change her mind once she’s set her heart on someone? Not to mention..."

Zhongli Shan lowered his voice, "Qing Huan’s origins are mysterious, and Xue An carries great fortune. If they could be brought together, it might be destiny."

Yue Shifang remained silent.

He actually understood Zhongli Shan’s meaning, which was for Qing Huan’s own good.

Yet, he still felt quite uncomfortable and couldn’t shake the feeling of selling his sister.

Meanwhile, Shen Muyu felt equally uncomfortable.

He led the remaining Sword Cultivators of the Shen Family to Jidu’s Main City.

Since he had suddenly left the Bai Family battlefield, Shen Hongyi had to lead the group forward to receive him.

It was then that she learned from Shen Muyu about the family head Du Jingsheng’s demise, causing her to cry sorrowfully.

For her, who had practiced Sword Intent with Du Jingsheng from a young age, he was not only the Shen Family’s head but also her mentor in Sword Dao, a role model teacher.

So, upon hearing of his death, Shen Hongyi couldn’t help but cry loudly with grief.

Her crying caused all the members of the Shen Family to shed tears as well.

Du Jingsheng led the Shen Family for many years, neither achieving great deeds nor committing grave mistakes.

Moreover, his fair approach to handling matters earned him tremendous goodwill from all members of the Shen Family.

His sudden demise was hard for many to accept.

Shen Muyu also felt deeply saddened, partly because of Du Jingsheng’s departure, and partly due to a profound sense of defeat.

These feelings of defeat were all attributed to Xue An.

On the journey here, Shen Muyu heard countless rumors.

Although many were exaggerated, many had a high degree of credibility.

Like how Xue An turned the tide and saved the Bai Family participants.

Also, how Xue An uncovered the Eastern Emperor Taiyi’s conspiracy and prepared everything in advance.

All these made Shen Muyu feel extremely uneasy.

Because once upon a time, he was the peerless genius praised by countless people.

But never did he expect, in just a few days, everything changed drastically.

First, he was defeated by Xue An at the Bai Family battlefield with a single sword stroke.

That nearly ruined his cultivation level, relying solely on a bit of indomitable spirit and Xue An’s mercy to survive.

At that time, Shen Muyu at least was not in despair.

Because he thought, even if he lost this sword fight, as long as he practiced hard, he could regain his honor.

But never did he expect, this thought had barely formed before reality brutally shattered it.

Single-handedly turning the tide, facing the Eastern Emperor Taiyi and defeating him was something Shen Muyu never dared to imagine, yet Xue An accomplished it.

How could Shen Muyu even compare?

So at this moment, he was filled with deep feelings of defeat and powerlessness.

It was then that two beams of bright light suddenly descended at high speed over Jidu’s Main City, presenting the figures of Xue An and Yue Qinghuan.

Their appearance caused a stir among the crowd.

Many people came forward to greet them.

"Greetings, Mr. Xue!"

"Greetings, Benefactor Xue!"

The shouts were filled with boundless reverence.

At this moment, Xue An’s prestige in the entire Sky Beyond the Skies was unmatched.

Such lofty power brought an unexpected calm to Shen Muyu’s troubled heart.

Because he finally realized that his defeat by Xue An was not at all unjust, as it wasn’t due to his weakness but Xue An’s overwhelming strength.

So strong that an existence like himself could only look up to him.

Xue An’s return brought a much-needed relaxation to many.

Because previously, nobody knew what Xue An was doing.

What if he didn’t return?

But all those worries vanished the moment they laid eyes on Xue An.

In fact, most hadn’t realized Xue An had unconsciously become their pillar.

If he’s not around, many people feel insecure.

In this gradually relaxed atmosphere, both Bing Family and Shen Family followers proceeded towards Jidu’s Main City with Xue An.

Lei Butong had long vacated the City Lord’s Mansion for them to discuss matters and rest.

As many followed Xue An into the City Lord’s Mansion.

Yue Shifang halted Yue Qinghuan.

"Wait a moment, I want to ask you something!"

"Hm? What’s the matter?"

Yue Qinghuan followed her brother to a secluded corner, looking bewildered.

Yue Shifang coughed twice, suddenly at a loss for words.

How should he ask?

Directly ask what she did with Xue An and whether they did anything inappropriate?

Being her brother, was he even able to put that into words?

Just as he was regretting it internally.

Gu Xianyi’s voice came from behind. "Qing Huan, what’s your relationship with Xue An?"

"What kind of relationship? We’re just friends!"

"Really just friends?"

"What else do you think?"

"We thought, seeing how close you two are, the relationship might not be that simple!" Zhongli Shan interjected.

Yue Qinghuan was both amused and exasperated, "What does that mean? We’re really just ordinary friends, and I was following him to welcome his two daughters."

"Oh right, this guy already has children. I forgot about that." Zhongli Shan commented awkwardly.

The group fell silent for a moment.

Yue Qinghuan found herself helpless against these elders and sighed, "If there’s nothing else, I’ll be going!"

With that said, she turned and left, leaving the group of ancestors from the Bing Family at a loss.

After a moment, Gu Xianyi remarked furiously, "Zhongli Shan, this is all your fault for gossiping about mutual feelings. How are we supposed to face Qing Huan now?"

Zhongli Shan shuddered and replied with a forced smile, "I meant well for Qing Huan. Who could foresee this outcome? Nothing much, let me take my leave first, goodbye!"

With that, he hurriedly slipped away.
