Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 1568: Chapter 1565: Making a Bet! (Second Update)

When Xue An followed Xia Qi into the Xia Family mansion, the events that had occurred before the gate spread like wildfire.

In an instant, the entire Xia Family was ablaze with excitement.

”What? The eldest miss returned safely and brought back a top-notch master?”

”Exactly, not only that, this young man also defeated the followers of the young master before even entering the gate.”

”Hiss... if that’s the case, our Xia Family might really have hope in overturning the Zhang Family’s oppression!”

”Heh, I think that’s unlikely, it’s just beating a few servants, how can it compare to those top-level cultivators of the Zhang Family?”

”You can’t say that, who knows how things will develop in the future?”

In any case, all kinds of opinions flew around!

But the impact brought by this news was immediate.

At least, many of the elders who were previously skeptical and hesitant now found their minds opening up.

In this situation, as soon as Xue An and the others entered the mansion, they received an invitation from the council of elders.

Soon, a formal invitation was sent to Xue An.

Xue An glanced down at it, his expression unchanged, without any peculiarities.

Xia Qi, however, couldn’t contain her inner excitement and whispered, ”Sir, this is an invitation from our Xia Family elders for you to attend a welcome banquet soon. Will you go?”

”Of course, why not go?” Xue An said with a slight smile.

Xia Qi felt relieved, ”Alright, I’ll make arrangements now!”

After saying this, Xia Qi turned and left eagerly.

Xue An watched her back with a slight smile, then looked thoughtfully towards a certain spot in the void.

”Old friend, I wonder how long it’s been since we last met. How are you now?”fr\(e)ew(e)b.(n)o (v)(e)l.com

Meanwhile.

Xia Yi was pacing back and forth in the room, full of anger.

”Those scoundrels, when they accepted my gifts back then, they promised across their hearts that they would stand by me. Now, they can’t wait to defect to Xia Qi’s side at the first sign of trouble. It’s outrageous!”

His subordinates were terrified, none daring to make a sound.

Until his anger was mostly vented, someone finally spoke cautiously, ”Yi bro, what should we do next?”

Xia Yi stopped his steps and sneered, ”What to do? Just play it cool!”

”That guy really thinks he can intimidate me with such a bit of strength? It’s utterly ridiculous. I don’t believe he can continue to be so arrogant in front of Zhang Shao!”

Having said this, he spoke in a deep voice, ”Send the orders; I will also attend tonight’s banquet!”

”Yes!”

As evening approached.

The entire Xia Family was illuminated with bright lights, and the banquet hall was even more dazzling.

The high-ranking members of the Xia Family were all in attendance, waiting for tonight’s grand feast.fr\eewebno vel .c(o)m

Before Xia Qi and others arrived, Xia Yi had already led a team into the banquet hall.

The atmosphere became somewhat awkward.

The crowd began to stir slightly.

Xia Yi remained silent, merely bowing to the Family Head Xia Zheng and numerous elders before standing aside and waiting silently.

Time ticked away moment by moment.

Finally.

When the moon hung high.

There was a commotion at the entrance of the banquet hall, and then Xia Qi led the people inside first.

Upon seeing her, many elders’ expressions slightly changed, with some even standing up in anticipation.

Following that, Xia Qi stood aside, seemingly waiting for something.

Soon, a young man in white stepped into the hall.

Upon seeing him enter, all eyes instantly focused on him.

Especially Xia Yi, whose eyes were practically shooting flames.

Xue An appeared oblivious to these gazes, walking into the hall with a calm demeanor.

At this moment, Xia Qi bowed deeply to her father, Xia Family Head Xia Zheng.

”Father, I have returned successfully!”

Xia Zheng’s eyes flickered and he nodded, ”Very good, this journey must have been hard for you!”

Saying this, Xia Zheng turned his gaze to Xue An.

”This must be the top master Qi’er spoke of. May I ask for your name and where you hail from?”

The room fell silent instantly, everyone awaiting Xue An’s response.

With a slight smile, Xue An said, ”My name is Xue An, as for where I hail from... I have no master!”

A low murmur of astonishment spread across the room.

No master?

Many exchanged glances, seeing each other’s confusion.

No one had ever heard someone claiming to have no master!

Xia Yi’s courage was bolstered, snickering coldly at these words.

”What a joke, how can there be no master in the world? I reckon there must be some secret he’s hiding!”

Hearing this, Xue An lifted his gaze to glance at Xia Yi without paying heed to his sarcastic interrogation, instead smiling slightly.

”Of course, there’s no secret, but if you insist on asking about my master, I can only say... I am my own master!”

Boom!

The room erupted in noise.

Many bore expressions of surprise and doubt.

Xia Yi’s expression changed, showing a hint of joy, and quickly spoke to Xia Zheng.

”Uncle, this man’s evasive words clearly indicate he’s no virtuous fellow. I think we should proceed cautiously, it’s best to expel him!”

Xia Zheng remained silent.

But Xia Qi was incensed upon hearing this, ”Xia Yi, what do you mean by this? Are you questioning my friend?”

Xia Yi sneered, ”Exactly, I’m questioning, what will you do?”

Her face changed, turning frosty, ready to act.

Yet at this moment, Xue An waved his hand, signaling Xia Qi not to speak, then looked at Xia Yi with a faint smile.

”Was it your people who blocked me at the door?”

Xia Yi’s expression slightly changed, but he maintained his composure and said, ”So what if it was?”

Xue An shook his head, ”Nothing much, just that I find it laughable!”

”Laughable?”

”Yes!” Xue An replied earnestly, ”With subordinates like yours, who are just a bunch of inept slackers, it tells a lot about your own worth!”

”You...” Xia Yi’s face turned angry, but he soon calmed down, speaking with a sinister tone, ”Xue, you seem very confident in yourself!”

Xue An shrugged, ”You’re mistaken, it’s not very confident, but extremely confident!”

”Hehe, such arrogance!” Xia Yi sneered a few times, then continued, ”In that case, are you willing to wager with me?”

”Wager? About what?” Xue An asked with interest.

”Simple, aren’t you very confident? If you can defeat the cultivators of the Zhang Family, I’ll kneel and apologize to you; otherwise, the opposite applies. Do you dare to bet?”

This statement caused Xia Qi’s complexion to change.

Because this statement was far too provocative.

Without waiting for her refusal, Xue An confidently nodded, ”Alright! Since I’m idle anyway, I’ll play along!”
