Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 1416: Chapter 1413: Kill Everyone, the News Won’t Leak Out (Third Update)

In this situation, the pastry in Tan Xiyao’s hand accidentally touched Wei Haocang’s lips.

This seemingly insignificant gesture caused Wei Haocang to tremble all over.

It was already very hard for him to hold out until now.

Because the banquet hall was filled with delicious delicacies, and the aroma emanating from these dishes had been torturing Wei Haocang at every moment.

If it weren’t for Wei Qingxiao constantly suppressing him, he would have already lost control long ago.

But this pastry brushing against his lips was like the final straw that broke the camel’s back, completely shattering Wei Haocang’s sanity.

His expression suddenly turned intensely feral. He snapped his mouth open and bit down on the pastry without hesitation.

Tan Xiyao let out a horrific scream, for along with the pastry, one of her fingers was bitten off.

Racked with agony, Tan Xiyao trembled uncontrollably.

Meanwhile, Wei Haocang lost all rationality, lunging directly at the table and grabbing plate after plate of exquisitely crafted snacks, shoving them chaotically into his mouth.

His horrifyingly savage eating manners instantly silenced the lively banquet hall.

Everyone froze in shock, staring at Wei Haocang, who now resembled a wild beast. No one could make sense of what was happening.

Xue An let out a faint sigh, a trace of compassion appearing in his eyes as he murmured softly, ”You’ve suffered enough.”

In the pin-drop silence, Wei Qingxiao, who had been talking to others, sensed that something was amiss and whipped around. The sight that met her eyes instantly turned her face dark as iron.

Because the thing she feared the most had finally happened!

Tan Xiyao clutched her injured hand, now missing a finger, her face full of terror as she looked at Wei Haocang, who was devouring food like a ravenous beast. Her body shook like a sieve.

The expressions of everyone else also started to twist into odd shapes.

Even the most unaware person could now see that something was dreadfully wrong with the Wei Family’s young master.

No normal person would ever eat with such abandon!

The Family Head of the Luo Family, Luo Gaoyang, exchanged a glance with his peers, and they all saw the understanding in each other’s eyes.

The rumors were true.

The Wei Family’s young master indeed had issues.

Against this backdrop of strange tension, Wei Qingxiao’s face underwent a series of changes, but her steps did not falter. She quickly strode over to the table, raised her hand, and delivered a resounding slap.

Slap!

The sharp sound of the slap echoed throughout the banquet hall.

Tan Xiyao screamed miserably, her body sent flying from the force of the blow. She crashed onto a table, smashing all the dishes and utensils on it.

The clattering and breaking sounds caused many attendees to show subtle shifts in expression.

Wei Qingxiao’s face was ashen as she stared at Wei Haocang, who was still hunched over the table, stuffing food into his mouth. A wave of exhaustion suddenly washed over her.

She had worked painstakingly hard, managing to achieve just a sliver of progress, only to end up with such a humiliating scenario.

Suppressing the sorrow threatening to overwhelm her, she reached out, grabbed Wei Haocang’s wrist, and said in a low voice, ”Cang’er, stop eating! We need to leave!”

Only Wei Qingxiao’s words could calm Wei Haocang down during his episodes.

As soon as her words reached his ears, Wei Haocang began to settle down. He ignored the grease and crumbs smeared all over his face, flashing a stupid grin.

Wei Qingxiao held back the tears that threatened to spill from her eyes. Maintaining her composure, she spoke indifferently, ”Please excuse today’s unfortunate incident. We’ll be leaving now.”

Having said this, she grabbed her brother’s wrist and began to walk out of the banquet hall.

The melancholy and desolation in her bearing moved Luo Jian deeply.

But Luo Xuan was practically on the verge of laughing out loud.

This was perfect!

I won’t believe for a second that after seeing this so-called eldest son of the Wei Family behaving like a fool, my brother would still harbor any thoughts regarding her.

As expected.

Luo Qifeng stood frozen, his face full of shock as he stared at the backs of Wei Qingxiao and her brother. There was a flicker of conflict in his eyes, but at last, he dropped his gaze and refused to look anymore.

As the legitimate firstborn of the Luo Family, Luo Qifeng was no fool.

Previously, Wei Qingxiao had been worth pursuing. She possessed everything he desired.

Beauty, status, and so much more that even eclipsed his own assets.

But now, the very foundation of all that had crumbled.

Because her brother turned out to be nothing less than a complete and utter fool.

This revelation predicted exactly what her position within the Wei Family would be from now on.

When paired with the assorted rumors about Wei Qingxiao herself, it became evident that her brother was her fatal weakness.

Worse still, she had no way out.

Under these circumstances, Wei Qingxiao was no longer an ideal partner but rather a ticking time bomb.

Pursuing her would mean inheriting all her burdens alongside her.

The weight of those burdens was simply unthinkable!

Thus, Luo Qifeng wisely chose to withdraw, feeling even a sliver of relief in doing so.

Luckily, he had found out early enough; otherwise, stepping onto this ’pirate ship’ would have been catastrophic!

Tan Xiyao, despite losing a finger and being slapped hard, felt relief as well.

She believed it was worth it.

Had she not taken action, she potentially could have lost her life instead.

This once-bustling banquet hall instantly fell into gloom.

Now, the looks directed at the Wei siblings were no longer filled with reverence and admiration but tinged with a perplexing strangeness.

Wei Qingxiao clenched her teeth in silence, gripping her brother’s hand as she prepared to leave the banquet hall.

It was in this moment that Xue An, seated nearby, suddenly chuckled.

”Are you planning to walk away just like that?”

The entire hall was shaken by this comment.

Heads turned in unison, eager to see who had spoken.

Wei Qingxiao spun around abruptly, her voice icy cold, ”Who dares speak out?”

All eyes converged in one direction. Xue An sat there calmly, a faint, enigmatic smile on his lips as he stared at Wei Qingxiao from across the hall. ”I did.”

”Who are you? What did you mean by those words just now?” Wei Qingxiao’s tone was frosty as she demanded an explanation.

”Nothing much,” Xue An said nonchalantly, ”I just wanted to remind you of something. If you walk out of this banquet hall, the news about your brother being a fool will spread across the ghost realm in no time. When that happens, all the years of effort you’ve poured into building your reputation will be washed away completely!”

”Have you considered that outcome?”

Xue An’s words made Wei Qingxiao’s brows shoot up, rage flashing in her eyes.

Of course, she had considered such possibilities.

But what could she do about it?

Even if today’s banquet passed without incident, what about the future?

Who could guarantee that such incidents wouldn’t happen again?

Her only option now was to take things one step at a time.

”Yes, I’ve considered it. But what can I do?” Wei Qingxiao responded coldly.

”Don’t you wish to change all this?”

Xue An’s probing question made Wei Qingxiao quake momentarily. Her pupils shrank to pinpoints as she stared intensely at Xue An. ”How do I change it?”

Leaning back lazily in his chair, Xue An swept his gaze across the room before speaking in a calm tone, ”Simple. Kill everyone here, and the news naturally won’t spread!”

Grinning slightly, Xue An added, ”Such a straightforward solution, surely you understand it?”

Boom!

Before Wei Qingxiao could react, the entire banquet hall erupted into chaos.

”Who is this lunatic daring to spout such audacious nonsense?”

”Isn’t that the seventh young master Luo Jian with the Ren Family’s useless second son? Why are they with this man?”

”I heard this man might be Luo Jingting’s personal guard!”

*Snort* ”A mere guard of the Luo Family’s branch line, acting so arrogantly? He has a death wish!”
