Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 2774: Chapter 2775: Laying the Trap

Xue An gave Sheng Hongqian a deep look, and for the first time, his perception of her changed.

This woman was obviously very clever, understanding the delicate situation at hand, hence she spoke those words.

It must be noted that he had only recently become acquainted with the members of the Dragon Tiger Stronghold, even having fought with them initially.

In such circumstances, given that he had exhausted himself in a confrontation with the gray silhouette, leading to serious injuries, it was possible that Niu Dali and the others harbored ulterior motives.

So Sheng Hongqian’s words were clearly meant for him, to prove that they had no other intentions.

Xue An understood this well, but outwardly showed no abnormal reaction, only nodding slightly.

"No need to be overly tense. Even if they do return, I have a way to deal with them!"

Xue An had always been one to plan before taking action. Despite depleting himself significantly to destroy that gray silhouette, he still retained ample preparations to handle various possible scenarios.

Therefore, even if Niu Dali and the others indeed plotted against him, he was absolutely confident in making them pay dearly.

The current statement was Xue An stating his stance.

Upon hearing this, Sheng Hongqian’s eyes revealed a strange expression, and she then bowed deeply, refraining from further comment.

But Niu Dali and the others, ignorant of the subtext within the words, instead appeared puzzled and inquired.

"Master, do Shuman Na and the two really plan to return?"

"Not possibly, but definitely!" Xue An responded calmly.

"The two women are merely temporarily blinded by fear. After all, their backer has been killed by me, causing a significant shock to them. But I believe that they’ll come to their senses before long, and then they’ll definitely return for revenge."

"What should we do then?" Niu Dali asked, somewhat panicked.

Though Xue An claimed he could handle them, seeing Xue An’s severely injured state made Niu Dali uneasy.

If they were defeated, surely they would be slaughtered by the furious Shuman Na sisters.

Xue An merely smiled faintly, "No need to panic. As I said, I’m definitely capable. Will you follow my command?"

Niu Dali, Zhang Xiaoqiang, and the others exchanged glances, then nodded in unison, "Of course! But what should we do?"

"I intend to set a trap, and then... catch them in the jar." Xue An replied calmly.

Meanwhile, Shuman Qing, who had been fleeing like a startled wild bird, suddenly halted.

"What’s wrong?" Shuman Na, who was following her closely, nearly bumped into her, stopping abruptly.

"Something’s not right!" Shuman Qing’s eyes flickered, speaking in a low tone.

"What’s not right?"

"Just now, something was amiss. That young man must be injured, otherwise, with his skills, how could he possibly let us go?"

Shuman Na furrowed her brows, "So what if he’s injured? He managed to eliminate our master. Such a presence is not something we can provoke, right?"

Shuman Qing shook her head, "You’re wrong. Precisely because he eliminated our master, his injuries are bound to be severe. Imagine if you were him, would you let us go?"

Shuman Na contemplated for a moment, then shook her head, "No! But perhaps he spared us because we surrendered the Rule Power!"

Shuman Qing sneered.

"Sister, you’re really naive! If he weren’t injured or weren’t seriously injured, even our lives would be at his mercy, let alone two Rule Powers. Wouldn’t it be simpler for him to seize them directly? Why bother talking to us?"

Shuman Na’s eyes gradually brightened, "You mean to say, he’s so weakened he can’t even handle us?"

"That’s definitely the case, otherwise, his actions can’t be explained! It’s partly due to our panic earlier that we were intimidated by his words. If my guess is correct, even if he’s not unconscious, he has no combat strength left!"

"So what are we waiting for? Let’s head back and kill that brat, and get back our Rule Power!"

Upon hearing that Xue An was severely injured and powerless, Shuman Na’s arrogance surged immediately.

Shuman Qing shook her head, "Of course we’ll return, but the brat is so cunning, he might have prepared something!"

Hearing of possible preparations, Shuman Na’s arrogance diminished slightly, reluctantly asking, "So what? Should we just flee ignobly?"

Shuman Qing’s gaze was cold, "Of course not. But this time, we’ll sneak back quietly, aiming for a swift lethal strike! Even if he has preparations, we can kill him before he can use them, right?"

Shuman Na was delighted, "Little sister, you’re really thorough. Let’s do as you say!"

The two agreed, immediately turning back.

However, this time they were more vigilant, concealing themselves along the way, striving not to attract any attention.

In such circumstances, they naturally moved slower.

Though they had taken half an hour to escape, returning took over two hours.

Nonetheless, their efforts were fruitful; at least they saw no one along the way.

Finally returning to the Dragon Tiger Mountain area, they saw the spiritual energy covering the mountains from afar, with the aura of a paradise and haven.

"That young man’s skills are truly remarkable. Previously, Dragon Tiger Mountain was merely a barren land, but now it’s become a paradise!" Shuman Na exclaimed.

Shuman Qing cautiously surveyed the surroundings, and after confirming that no one was following or paying attention, only then did she speak in a serious tone.

"Indeed impressive, but offending the two of us, he still must die!"

"Exactly! Damn it, I must take his head to quench my rage!" Shuman Na said viciously.

The two stealthily sneaked into the mountains without encountering any obstacles, easily arriving at the foot of Dragon Tiger Mountain.

Glancing at the Dragon Tiger Stronghold stretching from mid-mountain to the summit, Shuman Na remarked.

"Honestly, I still don’t understand why the worthless Dragon Tiger Stronghold members are so loyal to that young man? I don’t believe they couldn’t see that he’s severely injured, so shouldn’t they have tied him up for ransom, logically?"

"I also don’t get it. These guys are typically cowardly, yet this time they dare intervene against us. It’s quite intriguing!"

"Damn it, enough of this talk. After we kill that young man, not one member of the Dragon Tiger Stronghold will be spared. I plan to massacre this entire stronghold!" Shuman Na vowed fiercely.

Shuman Qing nodded, "Let’s go! Let’s infiltrate the stronghold first!"
