Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 2641: Chapter 2642: Summing Up and Severing Grievant Souls

These evil entities have an ultimate target of myself, so why, possessing such immense power, don’t they just deal with me directly?

Even if, as Eastern Emperor Taiyi said, their aim isn’t just to kill me but also to strip away the backbone of the Hua Clan, it doesn’t completely explain it.

After all, if these evil entities feared the Hua Clan so much, couldn’t they just modify the timeline to annihilate the Hua Clan?

Ah yes!

Back then, Eastern Emperor Taiyi accidentally revealed an important piece of information: they dare not directly target the Hua Clan or myself, because some hidden presence is watching them.

And what is this presence?

If it leans towards the Hua Clan and myself, why doesn’t it prevent the repeated actions of these evil entities?

It’s as if it’s a referee on the field, only prohibiting certain out-of-line behaviors, but unable to step into the game itself.

Xue An vaguely felt as if he had touched upon the core of some issues.

But if he wanted to verify them, there was still a long road ahead.

The second question is quite simple: why did the backstage manipulator target the Zhailao Daoist specifically?

To know that many people have connections with me, Zhailao Daoist is important, but not the key figure.

Yet the backstage manipulator targeted Zhailao Daoist first, which indicates that his time node is closely related to the current timeline.

For a moment, Xue An’s mind was overflowing with thoughts, with countless ideas flashing through his mind.

Zhailao Daoist didn’t urge him; he just waited quietly at the side because he knew Xue An would certainly say something.

Indeed.

After pondering for a long time, Xue An looked at Zhailao Daoist and sighed softly, ”With such significant changes in this world’s timeline, are you still being a Daoist?”

”What else could I do? I don’t have any other skills. Although many things have indeed changed, at least the deities of the Hua Clan are still here. I must let this Daoist lineage continue, right?”

”So you have transformed this ten-thousand-acre pear orchard into your successor?” Xue An asked.

”You could see that?”

Xue An nodded, ”It’s impossible for just these pear trees to nurture so many spirits, especially the leader of these flower spirits, which clearly carries a Daoist charm.”

Zhailao Daoist chuckled, ”I had no choice. Although this mountain is tranquil, it’s also extremely lonely. Generally, young people can’t bear to stay here, not to mention those aspiring to be powerful go to Hongyu Shanzhuang to seek mentorship, so who’d want to practice cultivation with an old crank like me?”

”Helplessly, I had to use the sect’s secret method to slowly transform these pear flowers, cultivate their intelligence, and hope to pass on my limited abilities to them!”

At this point, Zhailao Daoist suddenly remembered something, ”You just mentioned that when you returned from the Sky Beyond the Skies, you brought back Guankou Erlang and the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady, these two Hua Clan deities. Are they around?”

”They aren’t with me now because they have their own matters to handle, but they should be back soon!”

Zhailao Daoist nodded, ”I really want to see these surviving ancient gods soon!”

”No need to rush; you will see them soon!”

Zhailao Daoist gave a wry smile, ”But do you think, seeing my current state, I can wait until then?”

Xue An didn’t directly answer his question but instead raised an eyebrow, ”Who was it that injured you before?”

”Speaking of which, you should know, it’s people from the Wangui Sec!”

”Wangui Sec?”

Xue An pondered for a moment and then remembered this sect.

When I had just reincarnated here, the Wangui Sec came to Mount Qingmang with schemes against Xiao Sha, and I exterminated their young master.

Afterwards, this sect that revered ghosts suffered retribution from the Ghost General and was destroyed.

Yet in this timeline, it was again the Wangui Sec that harmed Zhailao Daoist.

”Is the missing part of your soul also in their hands?” Xue An asked.

”You even saw through that?” Zhailao Daoist was somewhat surprised.

”Incomplete souls usually appear when ordinary people die, but you at least have Dao techniques protecting you. You shouldn’t experience this so quickly. Moreover, your remaining two souls and five senses are very stable, not showing signs of dispersal, so definitely someone abducted your spirit.”

Zhailao Daoist nodded, ”Alas, you guessed right; a part of my soul was indeed taken by people from the Wangui Sec. Otherwise, even though my Dao techniques are weak, I wouldn’t have ended up like this, but in this timeline, the Wangui Sec is no longer the small sect it was!”

”On the contrary, I don’t know what kind of presence has sheltered them, but their strength has expanded rapidly. It has become one of the top sects in the Hua Clan, and even Hongyu Shanzhuang can’t do anything about them! So...”

Xue An waved his hand, ”So, there’s no need for any ’so’. Since they injured you, it is simple. Wait for a moment, I’ll go and come back!”

With these words, Xue An didn’t wait for Zhailao Daoist to object, stomped his foot, and his entire being shot up into the sky like a cannonball, disappearing from sight.

Zhailao Daoist looked at Xue An’s departing silhouette, somewhat stunned.

At this moment, the pear flower leader appeared beside the Daoist, ”Daoist master, who exactly is this gentleman?”

Zhailao Daoist slowly spoke, ”Him? He is a being upon whom the destiny of the Myriad Realms rests!”

The main base of the Wangui Sec is located in the remote mountains of the southwest frontier of Hua Country, and its sphere of influence is extremely vast.

When Xue An entered its territory, he discovered black smoke pervading the sky, with gusts of eerie wind, like a ghost nation on earth.

And Xue An’s sudden intrusion also caught the attention of the Wangui Sec’s guards.

Nowadays, the Wangui Sec keeps up with the times, as its Mountain Protection Array not only has sect formations but also incorporates modern technological advancements like radar.

So, upon seeing the rapidly moving light point on the radar screen, the individual responsible for monitoring immediately reported it up.

To this, the Wangui Sec people didn’t pay too much attention, simply issuing an order to dispatch a squad of Yin soldiers to investigate.

This squad of Yin soldiers moved swiftly to intercept.

Of course, Xue An noticed this, but he didn’t slow down the slightest bit, just casually flicked a finger.

Bang!

The squad of Yin soldiers evaporated without a sound.

Only then did the Wangui Sec guards realize the seriousness of the situation, but before they could dispatch a second team, Xue An had already reached the Mountain Protection Array.

Eerie winds howled, dark light flowed, and the array rose, encompassing the vast Wangui Sec base.

Simultaneously, within this array, there were faint cries of numerous creatures.

Xue An’s expression hardened, ”Slaughtering living beings, harnessing their resentment for the array, for this alone, you all deserve retribution!”

At this, Xue An stepped forward, shattering the array like a fragile eggshell.

Immediately, dozens of figures flew out from the Wangui Sec base, with the leading man shouting in anger.

”Who dares to make trouble in front of my Wangui Sec?”
