Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 2735: Chapter 2736: So Many Troubles, But Who Can I Tell?

Yun Lingxuan immediately clasped her hands to cover her scars, then took a deep breath and said softly, "Thank you, Tang Master, for your concern. I’m fine, just a little tired, farewell!"

With that, Yun Lingxuan stepped away.

Tuan’er turned back to glance at the sorrowful Tang Zheng, sighed slightly, and then quickly left.

In an instant, the spacious banquet hall was left with only Tang Zheng.

He stood there dumbfounded, and only after a long time did he leave in a daze.

When she returned to her room, Yun Lingxuan sat silently by the window for a long time without speaking.

Tuan’er carefully placed the broken-stringed ancient zither on the table, then spoke with a heart full of pity.

"Miss!"

Yun Lingxuan turned her head to look at Tuan’er.

Tuan’er trembled all over because she had never seen such a look from her mistress.

Confusion, loss, and sadness blended together, leaving one unsure how to respond.

"Miss!" Tuan’er called out again.

Yun Lingxuan’s lips gradually curved into a radiant smile, "Tuan’er, did you see, the zither strings broke!"

With those words, Yun Lingxuan’s tears flowed out uncontrollably.

Seeing her cry, Tuan’er’s tears couldn’t be stopped either.

"Yes, the strings broke! Miss, your suffering is finally coming to an end."

The reason the two were so emotional was entirely due to a prophecy made by Yun Lingxuan’s mentor, who taught her to play the zither and gave her this instrument.

If ever the strings on this ancient zither suddenly broke, it would mean that what Yun Lingxuan has been desperately seeking finally has hope.

To wait for this day, Yun Lingxuan endured countless hardships without result.

Unexpectedly, it happened today, in this secluded Ling’an Domain.

After crying for a while, Tuan’er wiped her tears and cheerfully said, "Miss, don’t cry, we’ve endured so much suffering and made it through, now more than ever we shouldn’t cry!"

Yun Lingxuan nodded and then also wiped away the tears from the corner of her eyes.

Tuan’er then hesitantly said, "Miss, don’t you feel that the voice speaking by our ears sounds a bit familiar?"

Yun Lingxuan hesitated for a moment, recalling carefully, then nodded, "It does seem a bit familiar!"

"I’ve always felt it was familiar, but no matter how hard I try, I can’t remember where I’ve heard it!" Tuan’er scratched her head in agitation.

Watching her dramatic antics, Yun Lingxuan laughed, feeling a warmth in her heart.

Because she knew Tuan’er was deliberately acting this way to cheer her up.

"No matter who it is, with the zither strings broken, it means we will surely have a chance to meet again, and I believe that day will come very soon!" Yun Lingxuan said solemnly.

"Mm-hmm!" Tuan’er nodded firmly.

At the same moment underground, Xue An slowly retracted his Divine Sense and followed suit to open the light curtain before him.

After Xue An’s two Divine Sense avatars merged, the old man awoke from his shock and bitterly smiled, saying.

"I see now, your Divine Sense strength is the greatest I’ve ever witnessed, no wonder you dare to risk danger alone!"

Xue An smiled but continued to recall everything he had just witnessed at the City Lord’s Mansion.

Upon successfully infiltrating the City Lord’s Mansion, his Divine Sense instantly scanned the entire area, but he found no trace of Qie Weilan.

Meaning, Qie Weilan had not been captured by Xu Ling’an and his son, but where could she have gone?

Simultaneously, Xue An recalled the zither music coming from the banquet hall.

The desperation and anger within made Xue An deeply moved.

And the performer was none other than Yun Lingxuan, whom he’d once met in Ren’an City.

Thus, Xue An spoke to interrupt, firstly to stop her playing as continuing would cause her great bodily harm.

Secondly, it was to show force to Xu Ling’an and his people, for he’d infiltrated the City Lord’s Mansion right under their noses, the provocation was clear.

Xue An thought, and looked toward the old man.

"What are your plans next?"

The old man bitterly smiled, "What plans can I have? Had I not met you, I was prepared to die here, but since I’ve met you, I must settle the matters of the past!"

The old man’s expression turned serious.

"I have a favor to ask!"

"Let’s hear it first!" Xue An said indifferently.

"Back then, I left a backup move; in the City Lord’s Mansion, there remains someone no one would pay attention to. If I’m correct, no matter how vicious Shi Chang is, he wouldn’t harm this person!"

"So I wish to ask you to take me to see this person!"

"Oh?" Xue An raised an eyebrow slightly, "Who is this person you speak of? Why wouldn’t Shi Chang guard against them?"

The old man smiled, "Because this person is an eunuch; as you know, lacking the six roots limits their cultivation potential, and with my arrangements back then, Shi Chang wouldn’t suspect him as my man!"

Xue An nodded, "Alright, since that’s the case, I’ll take you out of here!"

Next was simple. Xue An effortlessly removed the light curtain obstruction and left the confinement that had trapped the old man for many years.

Then, with a trace of Divine Sense, he guided him toward the surface.

The distance of thousands of zhàng was covered in a blink, quickly reaching high above the ground, where Xue An solemnly said.

"Now see where he is!"

Watching the city he’d been away from for so long, the old man became emotional, and after a while, calmed his blood and pointed to a certain direction far away.

"It’s right there!"

Xue An said nothing, carrying him swiftly to the direction he pointed.

Here stood a solitary small courtyard.

Upon seeing it, Xue An raised an eyebrow slightly.

For he discovered this courtyard was among the few forbidden areas he’d detected with his Divine Sense earlier.

Seeing it, the old man’s expression grew increasingly complex.

Truth be told, he wasn’t sure if the backup he left would still function.

After all, so much time had passed; who knows if the person would change.

But given the situation, he could only take the risk.

With this thought, he took a deep breath, nodded to Xue An, then carefully wrote a Talisman Spell in his hand, and pressed it onto the ground.

The Talisman Spell was simple; after pressing it, nothing unusual occurred.

But at that moment, an invisible wave rapidly spread, penetrating into the courtyard.

Xue An recognized its implication.

"Just like that?"

"Yes! This was our agreed signal back then; once felt, it means I’ve returned!"

"From here on, it’s waiting to see if he’ll come out!"
