Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 2809: Chapter 2810: Night Investigation

"What do you think of this Xue An?" Tang Xiao pressed further.

Shang Hairong was silent for a moment, then spoke in a low voice: "Well, if I had to use four words to describe this young master Xue, I can only say... Heavenly Being-like!"

Tang Xiao’s pupils slightly contracted.

Because that was her genuine impression upon first seeing Xue An.

But immediately, a feeling of defiance surged in her heart, just as she was about to speak, Shang Hairong said with a gloomy expression.

"Miss Tang, I’ve heard about the past grievances between your brother and Young Master Xue, but now I just want to advise you, do not oppose Young Master Xue because mortals cannot contend with the divine!"

As she finished, a hint of fear flashed across Shang Hairong’s eyes.

"Hmph, just because you’re scared out of your wits by him doesn’t mean others are the same!" Tang Xiao said coldly.

Shang Hairong shook her head, "It’s not that I’m scared, but I’m stating a fact. Do you know what I just did?"

"What did you do?"

"I just went to the literature competition registration office and canceled my registration!"

"What?" Tang Xiao exclaimed in astonishment.

She never imagined that Shang Hairong would do such a thing.

"After witnessing Young Master Xue’s demeanor, I realized that with my limited ability, I cannot achieve anything at the grand literary festival, so I simply canceled the registration!" Shang Hairong explained.

Tang Xiao fell silent.

She was well aware of Shang Hairong’s previous temperament.

She was always striving to be the best, never willing to suffer any loss.

Yet after just one meeting with Xue An, she became indifferent to worldly matters.

This could not help but intrigue Tang Xiao.

"Actually, it’s not just me, many others made the same choice. Just now, on the way back, I even heard that Jinhan Academy, where Kou Zhengfeng belongs, has issued a statement. Everything was Kou Zhengfeng’s personal action, and his death was his own doing. Jinhan Academy will not pursue the matter in any form!"

Shang Hairong, being exceptionally insightful, naturally saw through Tang Xiao’s thoughts and couldn’t help but speak.

Tang Xiao’s expression gradually became solemn, she hadn’t expected even Jinhan Academy to surrender.

Though Jinhan Academy only rose to prominence in recent decades, and amassed through massive wealth, its strength was not something typical academies could compare to.

Yet even such a massive entity knelt without hesitation in this matter.

Thinking of this, Tang Xiao slowly clenched her teeth.

All of you are so afraid of Xue An, but I’m not afraid!

Not only am I not afraid, but I also have to show you my own skills.

Shang Hairong, knowing Tang Xiao’s character well, understood the look on her face meant she was still not convinced, but given the circumstances, arguing further was pointless, so she could only let out a long sigh.

"Miss Tang, if there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave now!"

Tang Xiao nodded, "Go ahead!"

Shang Hairong hesitated, then slightly nodded, and turned to leave.

With a plan in mind, Tang Xiao did not linger on the long street but instead turned back to a private residence in the city.

The Tang Family was considered wealthy in Xihua City, but with both parents gone early, she and her brother Tang Zheng were left alone.

However, the vast wealth remained, allowing Tang Xiao to own multiple residences in Xihua City.

At this moment, it was the residence closest to Xiyue Inn that Tang Xiao returned to.

She first sat cross-legged in the room, trying to cultivate her mind like Lu Hui, but in vain, due to her impetuous nature, she accomplished nothing after sitting for quite a while.

In frustration, Tang Xiao decided to get up and start cooking.

Admittedly, the young Miss Tang had decent culinary skills, soon preparing a table full of delightful dishes.

Then she picked up the chopsticks and began to feast heartily.

After she finished eating and cleaned up, it was finally dusk outside.

Seeing the scene, Tang Xiao lay back on the bed and pretended to nap with her eyes closed.

Time passed minute by minute, and only when the moon was high did Tang Xiao suddenly open her eyes, silently sitting up from the bed, picking up the night-wear prepared earlier by her side, and changed into it.

This was her greatest reliance.

During the day, Tang Xiao showed disdain for Xue An, but she knew better than anyone how formidable this young man in white truly was.

The reason she dared to be defiant and even planned to showcase her own abilities to everyone was because she possessed this skill.

This skill was something she learned by chance during childhood, allowing her to perfectly blend into the night and move stealthily.

Since mastering it, she had never displayed it, not even her brother Tang Zheng was aware.

But today, this skill finally saw the light of day again.

That’s right!

Tonight, Tang Xiao planned to infiltrate Xiyue Inn to explore the secrets behind Xue An.

In her view, since Xue An dared to be so flamboyant after plagiarizing poems, he must have something to rely on.

To uncover this secret, she had to do it in this way.

With this thought, Tang Xiao confidently looked at the girl dressed in black night-wear in the mirror, smiled slightly, and then silently merged into the darkness.

The distance from her residence to Xiyue Inn was only two blocks. Normally, with Tang Xiao’s speed, she could arrive in a flash, but while in stealth, her pace was significantly restricted.

She didn’t dare to re-enter stealth mode upon reaching Xiyue Inn, as who knew if Xue An’s Divine Sense was monitoring the nearby areas.

To be safe, she patiently made her way stealthily.

Finally.

She arrived at the front of Xiyue Inn.

At this moment, the inn’s main door was shut tight, yet a slight glow through the cracks indicated the presence of people inside.

Tang Xiao did not use the main entrance but instead moved to the rear wall, tapped the bricks with her fingers, and merged into the wall.

When she reappeared, she was already in the courtyard.

This was the first time Tang Xiao executed this skill, making her a bit nervous, but upon looking up at the rooms of Xiyue Inn, a smug smile crept up her mouth.

Surnamed Xue, you wouldn’t have expected someone to sneak into Xiyue Inn at night!

With this thought, Tang Xiao calmed her racing heart and blood, then stealthily moved toward the lit rooms.

Meanwhile, in one of those lit rooms, Niu Dali and Zhang Xiaoqiang were feasting heartily.

While eating, Niu Dali praised, "Old Six, I never expected you to have such good culinary skills!"

"Who would have thought, Old Six, you should stop pretending to be a boss with red eyes and honestly become a cook!" Zhang Xiaoqiang remarked.

Old Six chuckled clumsily, scratching his head, "Actually, I think so too!"
