Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 712: Chapter 712: Black Iron Cheng Family (First Update)

Seeing this scene, Chen Xiaomei covered her mouth, tears streaming down her face in excitement.

The light in Chen Atu’s eyes grew stronger and stronger.

Suddenly.

Chen Atu leapt up from the ground, his face contorted in a snarl as he shouted, “Dare to hurt my sister, I’ll fight you with my life!”

As he spoke, a powerful blade burst into existence, slicing through half of the wall.

Afterward, Chen Atu swayed a few times and once again passed out on the ground.

“Milord, what’s wrong with my brother? Why did he faint again?” Chen Xiaomei rushed forward to embrace the unconscious Chen Atu, asking anxiously.

Xue An, however, chuckled, “Your brother is fine, in fact, quite the opposite, he has awakened an even more powerful Knife Skill Talent. It’s just that he can’t control this power for the time being, which led to him using too much force and passing out.”

Hearing Xue An say this, Chen Xiaomei slightly relaxed but still looked worriedly after Chen Atu.

Some time later, Chen Atu once again regained consciousness.

But this time, he didn’t look as agitated as before, instead, he looked blankly at Chen Xiaomei.

“Brother, you’re awake?” Chen Xiaomei said excitedly.

“Little… Xiaomei? How come you’re….” Chen Atu knew nothing of what had just happened.

The last thing he remembered was watching helplessly as his sister was brutally beaten. Overcome with anger and distress, he had coughed up blood and then lost consciousness.

To wake up and see Xiaomei lively and bouncing in front of him was beyond his expectations.

Not only that, the injuries on her eyes and face had already healed.

How could Chen Atu not be astonished?

After Chen Xiaomei recounted the events that had taken place to Chen Atu, without hesitation he knelt in front of Xue An, knocking his head on the ground repeatedly.

“Milord, I, Chen Atu, shall engrave your great kindness in my heart, never to forget for all eternity!”

Xue An said indifferently, “It was not I who saved you, but your sister and you yourself.”

Chen Atu shook his head, “Without milord’s rescue, my sister and I would have died long ago!”

Chen Xiaomei also knelt beside him, “My brother is right, without milord, we would’ve died long ago.”

Xue An smiled, then turned his gaze towards the window, softly saying, “Stand up!”

The Chen siblings looked at each other and then stood up, respectfully taking their place to the side.

“Do you feel any changes within yourself?” Xue An asked Chen Atu.

Chen Atu was taken aback, and upon closer feeling, his face gradually showed an expression of surprise.

“Milord, is this…?”

Chen Xiaomei smiled and said, “Brother, milord said that you’ve turned your misfortune into a blessing, awakening an even more powerful talent!”

Chen Atu’s face erupted with ecstatic joy.

He had dreamt of becoming a First Rank samurai, but who could have thought that upon waking, he would have become a Second Rank samurai.

Seeing this, Xue An smirked, “You have a good talent, next, I can help you further!”

“Thank you, milord!”

Soon, Riverside Town was thrown into turmoil.

Because the head of the village butcher and Feng Pangszi, the owner of the tavern, were dead.

These were notable figures in Riverside Town.

Their simultaneous deaths naturally caused fright among the people, wondering who the mysterious warrior responsible could be.

Then another message spread.

The assailant was purportedly a passing samurai of high rank.

Moreover, they were suspected to be a Fourth or even Fifth Rank high-level samurai.

This news immediately caused a sensation throughout Riverside Town.

Many people there had never seen a Second Rank samurai in their entire lives.

Now, suddenly, a Fourth or Fifth Rank high-level samurai had appeared.

This naturally piqued a lot of curiosity.

But, curious as they were, no one dared to approach.

Because many people in Riverside Town were well aware.

Killing the headman and Feng Pangszi and others was not that big of a deal.

But the fact that this high-ranking Samurai had even killed a noble young lady from Black Iron City.

This matter was definitely not going to end easily.

Therefore, everyone in the small town kept a respectful distance from Xue An and his companions.

To this Xue An merely smiled and did not take it to heart.

While Riverside Town was in an uproar over this incident.

More than two hundred kilometers away from Riverside Town stood a city.

A city of mysterious black, where the city walls were built of huge chunks of black iron ore.

This was the only colossal city within a thousand kilometers.

Black Iron City.

At the center of Black Iron City, to the west, stood a massive residence.

People passing by would quicken their steps and hurry past.

Because this was the home of the Cheng Family, the overlord of Black Iron City.

At dawn.

The Cheng Family’s gatekeeper yawned, ready to open the gates.

This was their daily job, come rain or shine.

But today, their job came with an unexpected surprise.

Because as soon as they opened the gates, a human-shaped object was hanging from the doorframe.

As the gates opened, the figure started to sway and then slowly turned its face around.

The house servants were so frightened they almost wet their pants.

Because wasn’t this human-shaped object none other than Cheng Xiya, the young miss of the Cheng Family who had left Black Iron City to inspect the outside world some time ago?

But at this moment, Cheng Xiya, devoid of her usual petulance and arrogance, had a frozen expression on her face, and a hint of horror lingered in her eyes.

Her skin clung to her bones as if it had lost all moisture.

Just like… a specimen that has been dehydrated and dried.

“Someone… come quickly! There’s been an incident!”

Finally, one of the more responsive gatekeepers, realizing something major had happened, started shouting loudly.

In such a chaotic and complex world, a large family clan like the Cheng Family naturally had very high vigilance.

Therefore, upon hearing the shouts of the gatekeepers, the Cheng Family immediately sprang into action.

Very quickly.

The butler of the front house ran over.

He couldn’t help but gasp when he saw the scene before him, and he immediately ordered the area to be cordoned off.

After a thorough examination, he removed Cheng Xiya, who was hanging there, wrapped her in something, and rushed to the back house.

Very quickly.

Several of the Cheng Family’s principal members gathered.

Upon seeing Cheng Xiya’s pitiable state, their expressions changed as well.

“What happened?” The one who asked was the second master of the Cheng Family, Cheng Jinyi.

“I don’t know! I heard the shouts from the outside house servants, and when I went there, I saw the young miss hanging there! I asked those house servants, and they only discovered it when they opened the door this morning!”

“Was the area outside investigated?”

“They’re looking into it! But I don’t think we’ll find anything!”

Just as they were talking, someone from outside came to report, “Second Master, the outside has been checked, and there are no clues!”

“Damn it, are you saying the young miss hung herself up there?” Cheng Jinyi bellowed in anger.

Just then, there was a commotion outside.

Then the door was pushed open, and a man in his fifties with a dignified face and dressed in exquisite clothes walked in.
