Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 907: Chapter 907: Master, Servant, and a Donkey Cart Enter the Capital City (1st Update)

But just as he turned around,

Xue An casually waved his hand, and the chopsticks in his hand turned into two black streaks, piercing directly into Lu Jiamu’s back. The force was so great that it even lifted Lu Jiamu off the ground and pinned him against a big tree beside the tea pavilion.

There was a dull thump.

The tree, thick enough for two people to hug, shook violently.

And on the other side of the trunk, two halves of the wooden chopsticks were sticking out.

This showed how powerful Xue An’s casual strike had been.

Fangtian Cheng watched this scene, feeling a chill run down his spine.

Because only he knew how formidable Xue An’s strike was.

But the young man was not scared at all; instead, he looked at Xue An with great interest, then clasped his hands and smiled, ”Thank you for saving my life, sir. My name is Yan Xi! May I ask for your esteemed name?”

Xue An looked at the white-clothed young man with a smile that was not quite a smile, ”My name is Xue An!”

”Mr. Xue, are you by chance heading to the Capital City to participate in the examinations?” Yan Xi asked with a smile.

Before Xue An could respond, Chan’er could no longer contain herself, her face full of pride as she said, ”Indeed, and this year’s top scholar will undoubtedly be my young master!”

”Oh?” Yan Xi’s eyes lit up, ”Then Mr. Xue truly is a talent in both literature and martial arts!”

Xue An smiled faintly, ignoring his words and just said to Chan’er, ”Are you full?”

”Young master, I am full!”

”Good! Let’s go!”

As he spoke, Xue An stood up to leave.

”Mr. Xue, we too are headed to Capital City. How about we travel together?” Yan Xi hurriedly said.

Xue An glanced at him and then pointed at the donkey cart tied by the road, smiling ambiguously, ”I am taking this, while you ride horses, how can we travel together?”

”Er, well...,”

Xue An said lightly, ”Moreover, with so many corpses, shouldn’t Mr. Yan tidy them up properly first?”

Just as Yan Xi was about to say something, he hesitated, then after a moment’s thought, he pulled a flawless jade from his waist.

”Since we cannot travel together, let me offer you this Jade Pendant as thanks for saving my life!”

Xue An looked at Yan Xi, and after a moment, he nodded and took the jade pendant, ”Alright then!”

Having said that, he turned and boarded the donkey cart, ready to leave.

Yan Xi suddenly remembered something and shouted, ”Mr. Xue, where will you reside in the Capital City? I’ll come visit you!”

Xue An lifted the cart curtain slightly and smiled softly, ”To be honest, I don’t even know where exactly I’ll be staying!”

Yan Xi was stunned. At that moment, Chan’er, cracking a long whip, was already driving the cart away.

Yan Xi hurriedly called out, ”Mr. Xue, since you don’t know where you will stay, you could come find me! I live on Tiansheng Long Street!”

No response.

The little donkey trotted, carrying the master and servant towards Capital City.

Yan Xi stood by the roadside, quietly watching the diminishing figure in the distance.

Fangtian Cheng walked over, his expression troubled, ”Young master! That was the jade pendant personally bestowed upon you by the superior!”

”It’s just a piece of jade. If I can befriend a master through this jade, then it’s a worthy transaction,”

”Young master, you seem to hold this man in high regard!”

Without turning back, Yan Xi simply said, ”Leaving his intelligence aside for a moment, just based on his martial prowess, he is surely not a common man. What’s strange is... why have I never heard this name before?”

At that moment, a cavalry troop rapidly approached from the main road, stopping not far from the tea pavilion.

The soldiers, clad in armor, dismounted in unison.

”Your Highness! We are late to rescue you, and it is indeed a death-deserving crime!” the leading Guard Captain said in trepidation.

With a stern face, Yan Xi said, ”Forget it, it’s not your fault. It was my decision to leave ahead with Manager Fang. Clean up these bodies!”

”Yes!”

Upon seeing the scene bloodied with rivers of blood and bodies strewn haphazardly, the Guard Captain couldn’t help but inhale sharply.

Fortunately, His Highness was unharmed, otherwise his own heads would not be enough to pay the price.

Soon, the corpses within the tea pavilion were discreetly buried deep.

Only the body of Lu Jiamu, nailed to the big tree, remained unmoved.

A guard approached, reaching out to pull him down from the tree.

But as soon as he touched it, the tree emitted creaking sounds of undue burden and then the entire trunk shattered explosively, turning into rubble on the ground.

And the body of Thousand-faced Snake Lu Jiamu had its bones completely shattered by that pair of chopsticks, leaving him to collapse limply on the ground.

Seeing this scene,

both Yan Xi and Fangtian Cheng’s expressions changed drastically.

Especially Fangtian Cheng, despite having already raised Xue An’s capabilities as high as he could, still hadn’t imagined he would be so powerful.

Merely throwing a pair of chopsticks not only killed the famed Thousand-faced Snake but also completely destroyed a large tree.

How immense must his strength be?

Yan Xi’s eyes flickered slightly before she looked in the direction of Capital City, a faint smile appearing on her face.

She always felt that the formerly tranquil Capital City would soon become thrilling with the arrival of Mr. Xue.

And you... what exactly is your background?

This world’s Capital City, known as Tiansheng Capital, is the most prosperous capital on this entire continent.

This is evident from the increasingly busy official roads leading to Capital City.

Moreover, with the imperial examinations approaching, more than half of the people traveling to Capital City are scholars prepared to take the exams.

Those impoverished scholars walking, luxurious young masters riding horses—discussions are endless along the way.

Among them, Xue An’s donkey cart stood out.

Not because of the cart, but because of the driver.

Although Chan’er wore plain clothes, they could hardly conceal her beauty.

Furthermore, Chan’er, only thirteen or fourteen years old, had a little baby fat on her unpainted face, which added an innocent charm to her beauty.

Such a maid was indeed what many scholars dreamed of.

Imagine, in the silence of a late-night study, having such a maid to add fragrance to your sleeves—what a delightful affair life would be?

Therefore, along the way, Chan’er received the most attention.

At the same time, many scholars also grew curious about the person inside the cart.

With such an enchanting and appealing maid, what kind of person must the master be?

Amidst many admiring and puzzled glances, the little donkey cart entered the ancient capital, bathed in a sunset of molten gold, with a steady clip-clop.

The entry of a man, a maid, and a cart stirred no ripples.

But subtly, a storm loomed, following the cart.

”Young Master, where are we going?” Chan’er asked.

Seated in the carriage, Xue An was examining a letter exuding a faint fragrance, within which was also a bright red banknote.

Even in dire straits, Xue An had never used that banknote before.

Xue An looked at the elegant handwriting on the letter, lost in thought.

Upon hearing Chan’er’s question, he smiled slightly and said, ”Let’s go to the Tang Family first.”

Chan’er blinked in surprise, then nodded happily before saying, ”All right, Young Master!”

Saying so, she drove the cart towards the address noted on the letter.
