Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 1175: Chapter 1175: Welcoming and Cleansing, The Nocturnal Lion (1st Update)

Just as Yan Meishu had said, the Yan Family owns a massive industry in this edge city, more than capable of accommodating this entire trading convoy.

Xue An naturally also stayed with the trading convoy.

However, at this moment, he seemed to have been intentionally or unintentionally ignored by everyone else.

As for Yan Meishu, she is currently busy dealing with the caravan’s affairs and has no time to attend to Xue An.

But Xue An didn’t seem to mind this, as what concerned him was the Divine Sense that had probed him when he first entered the city.

Although he hadn’t made actual contact with it, Xue An could clearly feel that the aura contained within this Divine Sense certainly belonged to the Hua Clan.

But this aura was a bit peculiar; it seemed not naturally formed, but artificially pieced together instead.

This made Xue An’s heart sink gradually.

If his guess was correct, then the current situation of the Hua Clan’s Deity under the control of Lord Lihen was absolutely not optimistic.

This filled Xue An’s heart with increasing murderous intent.

At the same time.

Yan Meishu had also completed her negotiations with the city at the edge.

Because the goods brought by the Yan Family’s caravan this time were several times more than usual, even Second Madam Zui Meng took great interest in this and sent the butler Yu Ren to personally handle the transactions.

After everything was successfully settled, Yan Meishu couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief.

Regardless, the business trip that she had personally managed had come to a perfect conclusion.

Up next would be the caravan’s traditional relaxation time, according to custom.

However, this time it was a bit different.

Yu Ren said with a smile, ”Miss Yan, this time you are representing the Yan Family on this trade route for the first time. In celebration of this, my madam has specially prepared a modest banquet for you tonight, as an expression of our hospitality. Please be sure to honor us with your presence!”

This was very politely put, and it also gave enough respect to both Yan Meishu and the Yan Family.

Therefore, Yan Meishu nodded and said, ”Butler Yu, you are too kind. Please go back and tell the madam—I will certainly attend tonight!”

Yu Ren smiled and nodded, then turned and left.

Yan Meishu secretly breathed a sigh of relief; she was extremely cautious around Yu Ren, who seemed very ordinary on the surface.

So much so that before she left, her father, the Clan Leader of the Yan Family, had personally warned her: In this edge city, you can offend the Second Madam, but never cross Butler Yu.

Now that her trade mission had come to a perfect end, after tonight’s banquet, she could return home tomorrow!

The more Yan Meishu thought about it, the more excited she became, and she couldn’t help but look forward to tonight’s banquet.

But who should she take with her?

Yan Meishu fell into deep hesitation.

But soon, she made up her mind. Upon returning to their lodgings, she went directly to the courtyard where Xue An was staying.

”A banquet?” Xue An couldn’t help but be slightly startled upon hearing this.

Yan Meishu nodded, ”Yes! This time it is a banquet personally organized by the Second Madam, who is the actual power behind this edge city. But I don’t have a male companion to go with me, so I hope young sir will accompany me!”

Before Xue An could speak, a cold snort from An Yan came from within his Sea of Consciousness.

This made Xue An startled, and then he smiled slightly, ”It does sound nice! But don’t you have a cousin? Why isn’t he accompanying you?”

Yan Meishu shook her head and said candidly, ”I really dislike him!”

”So you don’t detest me?” Xue An said with a smile that was not quite a smile.

Yan Meishu fell silent for a moment, then nodded, ”No, I don’t detest you!”

Xue An quietly observed Yan Meishu for a while before finally nodding with a smile, ”Good! Then I shall accompany you on this journey!”

Yan Meishu’s eyes brightened with delight as she nodded vigorously and said, ”Thank you, young man. In that case, I will come to pick you up tonight!”

With that, Yan Meishu turned and left in high spirits.

No sooner had she left than An Yan, as though upset like a vinegar bottle toppled over, commented with a piquant tone, ”Tsk, tsk, the banquet is all arranged now!”

Xue An chuckled, ”Alright, Yan’er, I know you are unhappy, but this banquet is not just about having fun!”

”Then what is it for? Truly for Miss Yan’s sake?”

Xue An’s smile faded slightly as he shook his head gently, ”This Yan Meishu is still too young! Does she really think that with her little strength, she can catch the attention of the deities of Lihen Heaven?”

”Remember, in the eyes of these deities, strength is paramount, all else is nonsense!”

An Yan was taken aback, ”Husband, do you mean to say...?”

”This banquet is obviously not going to be that simple. It’s very likely that some unexpected characters will make an appearance, and I am following her to see what these deities of Lihen Heaven are really like!”

Having heard Xue An’s intention, An Yan finally understood and couldn’t help but say with some remorse, ”I’m sorry, Husband. I wronged you!”

Xue An replied with a grinning smile, ”Do we need to say sorry between us? Actually, I’m quite willing to accompany Miss Yan to have a look myself, after all, I’m free!”

An Yan: ”....”

Then, indignantly, she said, ”You dare!”

Xue An laughed heartily, ”You guess if I dare or not?”

Just as Xue An and An Yan were teasing each other.

He Chuntai received an invitation from Yu Ren as well.

At first, He Chuntai did not quite grasp the meaning, but after reading it carefully, he couldn’t help but crack a smile.

The invitation from Yu Ren made it very clear that although the Yan Family’s business group was nominally helmed by Yan Meishu, much credit for various aspects was due to He Chuntai. Hence, he was hoped to attend the banquet.

These flattering words made He Chuntai immensely proud, thinking to himself that housekeeper Yu indeed had discerning eyes.

Therefore, he began to prepare early.

Very soon.

The night draped itself over the land.

When Yan Meishu came to where Xue An was staying to call him to go together, she was dazzled.

For at that moment, Xue An had changed out of his usual black cloak into a pristine white robe that was as white as snow, making him look even more elegant and handsome as if he was an immortal.

Seeing this scene, Yan Meishu felt her heart flutter chaotically, so much so that she couldn’t even speak.

But it was Xue An who smiled slightly, ”Miss Yan, shall we go?”

”Ah... ” Yan Meishu finally came to her senses from the shock and hurriedly nodded, ”Yes!”

Naturally, they couldn’t let Xue An walk on foot this time; Yan Meishu specially brought a night-illuminating jade lion as a mount for Xue An.

But such divine steeds are all immensely haughty by nature; most people could not even approach, let alone ride one.

And since Xue An was a man ”with no cultivation level,” Yan Meishu was concerned that he might get hurt again and thought to forewarn him.

But before she could speak, the night-illuminating jade lion, which normally paid Yan Meishu no heed, respectfully approached Xue An and then submitted amiably by bowing down.
