Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 1785: Chapter 1781: What Is Yearning? (First Update)

”Okay, okay! I was just asking, you don’t have to look at me like you want to kill someone. I’ll stop looking.” Hu Ying said, pouting.

”Hmph!” Huyue was still angry, ”If I catch you fooling around like this again, I’ll take you back to the Fox Country immediately!”

With that, Huyue turned and left.

Watching her brother’s retreating figure, Hu Ying shrank her neck and secretly made a funny face.

”Hmph! As if I’d be scared!”

Saying this, she sneaked a glance up at the sky, then whispered softly with pink cheeks.

”Kissing must be sweet, otherwise why would Brother Xue hold Sister Yan so tightly?”

After saying this, Hu Ying’s face turned red to her ears, and she quickly ran off with her head lowered.

After a long kiss that lasted a full five minutes, Xue An finally let go, then leaned in to the gasping and blushing An Yan’s ear, grinning mischievously, ”Yan’er, this was what I wanted to tell you!”

”Yuck, you rogue, so many people are watching! You’re so annoying!”

At this point, An Yan noticed the countless gazes from the ground, felt terribly embarrassed, buried her head in Xue An’s chest, and gave him a light pinch.

Xue An chuckled and casually put his arm around her shoulders.

”You’re my woman. It’s perfectly natural for me to kiss my own woman—what’s there to be shy about?”

An Yan was too embarrassed to speak, and could only give Xue An a fierce glare upon hearing this.

But unknowingly, An Yan’s initially tense state of mind had relaxed.

And this was exactly what Xue An wanted.

At this moment, Xue An laughed heartily and spoke loudly to the countless eager gazes worldwide, ”The great enemy is vanquished. I hereby announce a global feast for three days to celebrate the victory!”

Boom!

With these words, the world erupted, and the entire globe was plunged into a sea of joy because of Xue An’s command.

Amidst this cheerful atmosphere, Xue An slowly descended to the ground, holding An Yan.

The crowd immediately surrounded them.

”Old Xue, no words needed, you did beautifully!” Huyue gave a thumbs up in genuine admiration.

Not just him, Ye Hanshang and the others also wore expressions of joy.

Even the usually simple-minded Chu Wuxiang scratched the back of his head and said straightforwardly, ”I really didn’t expect Xiao Anzi to be even more powerful after being reborn!”

For these friends who had helped with all their strength during the perilous times, Xue An naturally felt full of gratitude, so he smiled and nodded, just about to speak.

Just then, a clear and ethereal female voice came from behind the crowd, ”Wait a moment, I have something to say!”

Accompanied by the voice, Jian Qi parted the crowd and walked over.

Seeing her, the atmosphere in the scene instantly became tense.

Many people looked at her with grave expressions, wondering what this sword-obsessed woman planned to do?

Could it be that she still hadn’t given up on the idea of competing with Xue An?

In this atmosphere, Xue An remained unfazed, standing quietly in place, watching Jian Qi walk toward him.

This completely defenseless attitude made Jian Qi pause slightly, then stop a short distance away from Xue An.

”Red Lotus Immortal Venerable, you’re so relaxed. Aren’t you afraid I might suddenly attack you?”

Xue An smiled slightly, shook his head, ”Not afraid, because you wouldn’t do that!”

”How can you be so sure I won’t?” Jian Qi asked with interest.

”Because... the pride of a Sword Cultivator won’t allow you to do such a thing!” Xue An said calmly.

This statement made Jian Qi slightly taken aback, then she laughed, ”Well said, truly befitting someone ranked at the top of the seven opponents I must defeat!”

”You’re flattering me! But I wonder who the other opponents you plan to defeat are?” Xue An said with a half-smile.

”There’s Li Jingxing, the master of Buried Sword Mountain, the unmatched Loose Cultivator Qiu Yuye, and... oh well, there are many, but they’re either out of the picture or missing, so I have to find them one by one. It’s quite bothersome!”

With this, Jian Qi’s face showed a troubled expression, resembling an inexperienced young girl rather than the unparalleled Sword Cultivator she was before.

Seeing this, Xue An couldn’t help but reveal a trace of a smile.

”So, have you come to find me for a duel?”

These words caused many to react slightly.

Zhuge Cang couldn’t help but cough lightly, about to speak.

After all, although Jian Qi was aggressive before, she hadn’t caused any severe consequences. On the contrary, she had helped defend Earth with everyone.

Even if not for her intervention at a critical moment, blocking the Evil Emperor of Central Earth, who knows how things might have turned out?

So Zhuge Cang wanted to persuade the two, hoping to turn hostility into friendship!

But at this moment, Jian Qi unexpectedly shook her head.

”Let’s forget about it! I’m still not a match for you right now, and I’m certain I’d lose in a duel.”

This statement left many surprised as they blinked in disbelief.

Is this... admitting defeat?

But upon hearing this, Xue An’s eyes showed appreciation.

At this point, Jian Qi said with determination, ”But rest assured, one day I will surpass you. When that time comes, I will challenge you fair and square!”

Xue An smiled and nodded, ”Sure!”

Then Jian Qi fell silent, a hint of confusion appearing on her face.

”Does Jian Qi still have something else?”

”Uh... well... can I speak to you privately for a moment?” Jian Qi asked hopefully.

Xue An was taken aback, then broke into a chuckle, ”Alright!”

The two walked to the side, and Xue An waved his hand, isolating the space with Sword Intent.

”Jian Qi, just say whatever’s on your mind!”

Jian Qi bit her lip, looking very troubled, but finally mustered the courage to say, ”Although it’s a bit presumptuous, I really want to know how you mastered your swordsmanship! Especially how your Sword Intent is so pure and powerful?”

After saying this, Jian Qi awkwardly glanced at Xue An, ”Of course, if you don’t want to tell, just pretend I never asked!”

At this moment, Jian Qi’s heart was indeed filled with nervousness, as this was equivalent to inquiring about someone else’s cultivation secrets.

And such secrets are often the trump cards of many strong individuals, rarely shared.

Unexpectedly, after hearing her, Xue An slightly raised his eyebrows, then smiled lightly, ”If we’re just talking about swordsmanship, you’re not bad either. As for Sword Intent... it’s simple, it’s because of longing!”

”Longing?”

”Yes, longing! Because only longing can forge the purest Sword Intent!”

Jian Qi was puzzled and asked somewhat incoherently, ”What is longing?”

This question left Xue An momentarily speechless, he pondered, then said, ”Longing is truly liking someone, but not being able to be with them due to various reasons!”

”Sounds complicated!” Jian Qi pondered with a frown for a moment, then suddenly said, ”So to experience longing, you must first have someone you like, right?”
