Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 180: Chapter 180: Formation of Fire Phoenix (Sixth Release)

At this moment, General Lin and Chen Xiuhe were both quite shocked.

Although Xue An was not a man of many words, every sentence he spoke hit the nail on the head, providing insight that was both unique and enlightening.

Leaving his cultivation level aside, his insights alone were enough to fill him with pride.

Xue An set down his teacup, looked at General Lin with a slight smile, “Using spiritual medicine to suppress your injury— it seems General Lin is quite reluctant to let others know your condition?”

As these words were spoken.

Chen Xiuhe’s complexion drastically changed.

General Lin, however, gave a bitter smile, “Indeed worthy of Mr. Xue, truly insightful. That’s correct, ten years ago, during my fight with Ghost God’s Slash Nagatsuki Ito from Country R, although I killed him, I was also injured by his Ghost God’s Slash.”

“The injury was severe and has lingered to this day, becoming more serious in recent years. If not for the spiritual medicine Mr. Xue sent to Ru Shi, I doubt I could have held on until now!”

What General Lin revealed was one of the deepest secrets of Huaxia’s military.

Since General Lin could be regarded as the number one figure in Huaxia’s military, if news of his serious injury got out, it would attract countless sinister gazes.

General Lin finished speaking with a bitter smile.

But the next thing Xue An said stunned him.

Xue An smiled faintly, “No wonder your realm is that of Longevity, yet your presence is only like that of a Half-step Longevity!”

General Lin’s face was full of astonishment.

“How do I know, you ask?” Xue An smiled, slowly picked up the teacup, and took a gentle sip, lowering his head.

As the teacup touched his lips, a noble presence suddenly emanated from Xue An’s body, but it disappeared as quickly as it had appeared, leaving no trace.

Although the moment was extremely brief.

It was still sufficient to make Chen Xiuhe and General Lin’s complexions change dramatically.

“A Loose Immortal?”

“To be exact, still only a Half-step Loose Immortal!” Xue An said indifferently.

“How is that possible? The presence just now, even a Loose Immortal could not possess it!” Chen Xiuhe exclaimed as if he had seen a ghost.

General Lin, however, looked solemn and his gaze towards Xue An carried thrice the respect.

“Nothing is impossible! To me, Loose Immortals are nothing more than chickens and dogs!” Xue An declared, then turned to General Lin.

“Why are you searching for the Immortal’s treasured sword?”

General Lin spoke in a low voice, “Back when I fought Nagatsuki Ito, he made it clear that if he lost, another Ghost God’s Slash from Country R would cross the sea to come here after ten years.”

“And this year marks the tenth year.”

General Lin sighed, “I am no longer the same person I was back then. My strength has decreased, and I am likely not the match of Country R’s new Ghost God’s Slash. If I lose, Huaxia’s prestige would be humiliated!”

“I cannot afford to lose, which is why I’m searching for a divine weapon,” General Lin said with a determined expression.

“Mr. Xue, is there a way to heal the injury General Lin carries?” Chen Xiuhe asked, full of hope.

Xue An shook his head, “It’s too late. If he had begun recuperating in seclusion right after the injury, there might have been a slim chance, but he actually forcefully sustained his cultivation level, draining it for ten years. Although he later suppressed it with spiritual medicine, that was just a temporary measure.”

“His soul is nearly dried up! The oil is exhausted, and the lamp is burnt out, how can it be saved now?”

Chen Xiuhe’s face showed the color of disappointment.

Xue An sighed lightly. In fact, it wasn’t completely impossible to save him, but the spiritual medicine required simply did not exist in this world.

General Lin, however, seemed to have anticipated this and chuckled, shaking his head, “Life and death are fated, and I have no particular feelings about this. There is just one thing I would ask of Mr. Xue!”

“What is it?”

With a serious expression, General Lin said, “In a little over a month, it will be the day we agreed upon. Even if Country R doesn’t send someone, I won’t last much longer. If I fall, won’t Huaxia be preyed upon by a pack of wolves? Thus, after much consideration, I’ve resolved to establish a new military force!”

“Oh?” Xue An raised an eyebrow.

“This military force will be specialized in dealing with martial cultivators and immortal cultivators, all to protect Huaxia from being bullied by outsiders!”

Speaking, General Lin stood up and bowed deeply to Xue An.

“For this matter, I humbly request Mr. Xue’s assistance!”

Xue An sipped his tea, watching the still bowing General Lin with a calm expression.

At this time, Chen Xiuhe also sighed and said with clasped hands, “Mr. Xue, please understand General Lin’s heartfelt desire to serve the country and the people, and lend your assistance!”

Xue An suddenly asked in return, “Why me?”

General Lin raised his head, his gaze resolute, “Because I have a premonition that Mr. Xue’s future achievements will be immeasurable! You will also be the best instructor for this new troop!”

Xue An looked at General Lin and after a moment, nodded, “I can agree to your request! However, I won’t act as an instructor, nor will I take a position in the military. I’ll simply help you train them!”

“Good!” General Lin nodded his head.

After sitting down again, General Lin was clearly very pleased, “Mr. Xue, this troop is preparing to recruit elites from various divisions based on the foundation of the existing Phoenix Special Forces, so we would like to ask you to give this new troop a name!”

“Call them Fire Phoenix,” Xue An said indifferently.

“What a great name!” General Lin’s eyes lit up, “The phoenix that is reborn from the ashes becomes the Fire Phoenix!”

At this moment.

In a highly secretive barrack on the outskirts of Zhongdu.

A group of burly and formidable-looking soldiers were casually grouped together, chatting.

“Hey, Cheng, who do you think will be our new instructor this time?” A somewhat skinny and lean man asked.

Cheng Hao, shirtless, was doing pull-ups on the horizontal bar.

With each pull-up, the muscles on his back quivered like flowing water.

Upon hearing the question, Cheng Hao replied indifferently, “It doesn’t matter who it is, to become my instructor, they’ll have to pass my test first!”

With that, he let go abruptly, landing heavily on the ground.

Thump.

The ground seemed to tremble slightly.

“Heh, naturally! You were already an instructor in the army, yet you were transferred here by a single order from the general, talking about rebuilding the special forces and enhancing training—it’s laughable!”

Cheng Hao looked coldly at the man, “Zou Sui, don’t you always talk too much?”

Zou Sui wisely shut his mouth.

In a corner of the barrack, a man lying on a training mat with a toothpick in his mouth, watched Cheng Hao’s silhouette and could not help but narrow his eyes slightly.

With Cheng Hao, known as the Dark Night Tiger, being transferred here, what kind of troop is the general trying to train?

And the instructor, who could he possibly be?

After all, those transferred here are not easy to handle—if the instructor’s qualifications and abilities are lacking, he won’t be able to command respect!

As the man pondered, a bewildered hunk approached.

“Get up!”

“Why?” the reclined man asked.

“Because I’ve taken a liking to this mat, why should you always be lying on it?”

“Because my skills are better than yours!” the man said with a laugh, and suddenly spat out the toothpick, sweeping the hunk to the ground with a swift leg sweep.

At the same time, the man produced a small knife from nowhere, pressing it against the hunk’s throat.

“If this were the battlefield, you would have died three times over by now!”

After saying this, the man stood up and walked away!

“Cheng, that man is the one known as Arctic Fox, Sun Ling!” Zou Sui said quietly.

Cheng Hao watched Sun Ling’s retreating figure, his eyes flickering slightly.
