Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 2798: Chapter 2799: Mist

Xue An had a good impression of the girl Tuan’er.

Of course, this fondness wasn’t romantic, just pure admiration.

In this girl, Xue An saw a rare kindness and innocence.

So when he saw Tuan’er now, Xue An smiled slightly.

"Tuan’er, what brings you here?"

Feeling the gentleness in Xue An’s gaze, Tuan’er’s face blushed even more, and she couldn’t articulate the words she had prepared, only stammering.

"I... I... no, it’s because my lady was delighted to hear of your arrival and specially sent me to invite you to Lou Wai Lou for a chat!"

Xue An slightly raised an eyebrow, "Your lady?"

"Yes!" Tuan’er lifted her head, gazing at Xue An with hopeful eyes.

"Since parting in Ling’an City, my lady has never forgotten you, always wanting to see you again. Upon hearing of your arrival in Xihua City, she immediately sent me over!"

Xue An could tell that Tuan’er’s words were half-true; the invitation was likely at Yun Lingxuan’s directive.

But to say Yun Lingxuan would never forget him, Xue An absolutely didn’t believe it.

After all, Xue An knew well that girls like Yun Lingxuan are very proud; even if she had feelings, she wouldn’t admit them upfront to Tuan’er.

But he didn’t expose Tuan’er’s lie, knowing she said it only for fear he’d refuse again.

Anyhow, there was still some time before the General Gathering, and he was free. It wouldn’t hurt to go and see.

Thinking this, Xue An smiled and nodded, "Since your lady has invited me so graciously, it would be rude to decline! When should I go?"

Seeing Xue An agree, Tuan’er was so delighted her eyes turned crescent-shaped.

"My lady is currently waiting in Lou Wai Lou, you can head over now!"

"Alright! Let’s go now!"

With that, Xue An turned to Ren Ning and Sheng Hongqian, saying, "You two stay and guard, I’ll be back soon!"

Ren Ning, slightly worried, took a step forward, wanting to speak.

Xue An waved a hand with a smile, "No need to worry, I’m just going to chat with Miss Yun, you can just wait at home!"

Ren Ning could only lower his head and reply, "Yes!"

"Let’s go!" Xue An said to Tuan’er.

Given Tuan’er’s status, she naturally couldn’t use a carriage, so she walked over herself.

On the return trip, walking back wasn’t an option.

Xue An and Tuan’er stood on the main street, "Which direction is Lou Wai Lou?"

Tuan’er pointed west, "Over there!"

"Okay! I’ll fly you over; let me know when we’re close!"

With that, Xue An took Tuan’er’s hand and took off into the air.

Once she was in the sky, Tuan’er finally realized.

My god!

Mr. Xue actually held my hand!

Boom!

Tuan’er felt all her blood rushing up, her face blushing as if it might start bleeding.

She wanted to look up at Xue An in front, but the cold wind blowing against her made it hard to open her eyes.

Xue An seemed to notice this, as a brilliance flashed, blocking the originally fierce wind outside.

"How is it? Was flying too fast?" Xue An asked gently.

"N-no, not too fast!" Tuan’er stammered, but in her heart, there was only one thought.

Mr. Xue is really... so gentle!

I merely felt a little uncomfortable and he noticed, then used methods to block the wind outside.

Such a gentle person must be very kind, it seems my lady’s great vengeance might really have hope.

As she daydreamed, Xue An gave her a teasing smile.

"Oh? Really not too fast?"

"Mm, I can still handle it!" Tuan’er replied earnestly.

But the next second, her composure vanished, as Xue An suddenly wrapped an arm around her waist, then accelerated sharply, soaring through the sky like lightning.

The speed was so fast, it even exceeded the limits of human vision.

The people on the ground only felt something seemed to fly past in the sky, but when they looked up, nothing was seen, just a long passage running through the clouds.

Strange!

What just flew by?

Puzzled thoughts filled their minds.

Meanwhile, Tuan’er, traversing the clouds, felt both fear and excitement.

The fear was from the sheer speed, overwhelming for her inherently gentle nature.

The excitement was because it was her beloved Mr. Xue taking her on this flight.

Especially since Xue An was holding her by the waist, making Tuan’er feel both thrilled and a bit shy.

At this moment, the view suddenly opened up. It turned out, within this brief time, Xue An had taken her through the cloud layer.

Below was an endless wasteland; they had left Xihua City, arriving in the Barbaric Wilderness beyond.

Speaking of which, a brief introduction of this world’s regional makeup is in order.

This world closely resembles ancient Earth’s various aspects, only magnified countless times.

Amid this indescribably vast land, stand innumerable large and small cities.

Yet strangely, the wilderness outside these cities is desolate and devoid of people.

Apart from the official roads for travel, you can’t find any human habitation in the wilderness.

Villages scattered across the land like stars on Earth simply don’t exist here.

Now, Xue An had brought Tuan’er to a wilderness far from the official road.

"Seems like we went a bit too far!" Xue An released Tuan’er’s hand, speaking awkwardly.

Tuan’er, unable to lift her head, murmured like a mosquito, "Then let’s hurry back! My lady is still waiting for us!"

"Mm!"

Xue An also felt his joke had gone a bit too far; he had just intended to scare the cute little girl.

Yet contrary to his expectations, she wasn’t afraid, but clung tightly to him without uttering a word throughout.

This made Xue An feel slightly guilty, and as he was about to turn with Tuan’er to leave...

Suddenly, the vast wilderness underfoot became soft like a swamp, then large earthen bubbles appeared on the ground, rapidly swelling.

Bang, bang, bang!

The bubbles began bursting one by one, emitting smoke that quickly filled the whole area, even covering the path of Xue An and Tuan’er.

Tuan’er shivered, shrinking beside Xue An, and tremulously asked, "What’s happening, sir?"

Xue An was equally puzzled, he had just intended a light-hearted joke, yet unexpectedly encountered such an event?

Could it be that, like that eternally elementary school kid, he naturally attracted trouble, no matter where, encountering all sorts of bizarre happenings?
