Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 1031: Chapter 1031: Are you satisfied with this gift? (3rd Update)

This feeling almost made Zhuo Yangyang faint with happiness.

She had no other demands, only wanting to have a normal family.

That was once an extravagant wish, but now it seemed that everything was laid out in front of her, almost within reach if she stretched out her hand.

Zhuo Yangyang stood there, dumbfounded.

Elder Madam Zhuo smiled kindly again and called out, ”Yangyang, come over here!”

Only then did Zhuo Yangyang move her feet and slowly walked over.

”Come, let me introduce you, this is Xu Bao from the Tian Fu Pavilion, a young and talented Rune Master!” Elder Madam Zhuo said with a beaming smile.

”I have seen Master Xu!” Zhuo Yangyang was somewhat confused, but still called out subconsciously.

Xu Bao swallowed the saliva that was about to drool out and nodded, ”So you are Miss Yangyang! So beautiful!”

Zhuo Yangyang smiled shyly, ”Master Xu is too kind!”

At this moment, Elder Madam Zhuo said with a laugh, ”Yangyang, hurry and toast Master Xu, someone of his stature is hard for you to meet on a regular basis!”

Zhuo Yangyang, without any suspicions, picked up the wine jug from the table, filled a cup to the brim, and then smiled appropriately, ”Master Xu, this cup is on behalf of my grandmother, to you!”

With that, she drained the cup in one gulp.

”Good!” Xu Bao’s eyes brightened with admiration and he, with a smile on his face, also drank a cup.

At this time, Zhuo Yangyang turned her head towards Elder Madam Zhuo, thinking nothing of it, she was about to leave.

But Elder Madam Zhuo did not let her go, ”Since you’re here, you might as well sit and eat!”

”Me?” Zhuo Yangyang was somewhat astonished, ”But... that wouldn’t be proper, would it?”

”What does propriety matter here, Master Xu is no outsider, sit down and have a chat!” Elder Madam Zhuo said with a warm smile.

Although Zhuo Yangyang felt it was somewhat inappropriate, she did not dare to defy Elder Madam Zhuo’s command, so she reluctantly took a seat to the side.

The banquet continued, but the atmosphere this time was somewhat strange.

Many people lowered their voices and occasionally glanced over at Zhuo Yangyang who was sitting in the distance.

And those glances made Zhuo Yangyang feel like she was sitting on pins and needles.

However, Elder Madam Zhuo seemed to be in high spirits today, continuously urging people to drink, and this Master Xu was also continuously watching her with a smile in his eyes.

So Zhuo Yangyang also sat down absentmindedly and started drinking cup after cup.

At the same time, Xue An’s figure appeared at the entrance of the banquet hall.

But almost no one noticed his arrival, as for most people, Xue An was an unfamiliar face, especially at such a young age, so no one paid him much attention.

Except for one person.

Zhuo Ya spotted Xue An the moment he entered, for someone who had dared to slap her in public, she hated him to the core.

Upon seeing Xue An, she whispered to her mother, ”Mother, it’s that man who hit me!”

Madam Zhuo turned her head to look at Xue An and after sizing him up carefully, revealed a cold smile.

”He seems rather ordinary and I’ve already had people check, there’s no powerful person with the surname Xue in the Fangtian Domain, so it’s certain, he’s just someone trying to cling to our Zhuo Family after learning about Zhuo Yangyang’s identity. He’s not to be feared!”

Hearing this, Zhuo Ya’s eyes lit up, ”Oh? In that case, dear mother, should I... right now...”

Madam Zhuo shook her head, ”Don’t be too hasty, the best is yet to come. Haven’t you noticed that wretched girl has already fallen into the trap? Just wait a bit, as soon as Master Xu makes his move, this fellow will be implicated. Then we won’t have to lift a finger, and this guy will have nowhere to be buried!”

Zhuo Ya nodded, somewhat eager, ”I’m really looking forward to it!”

As she spoke, she glared at Xue An with an extremely venomous look.

In response, Xue An merely smiled.

In fact, from the moment he entered, Xue An had noticed Zhuo Ya’s gaze, but all this was practically a joke to him.

He couldn’t be bothered to pay attention to this foolish woman, instead, he became deeply interested in the food at the banquet hall.

Since the entire city was built on the sea, the dishes were mainly seafood, but these seafood creatures were no ordinary beings, as nearly each one contained a strong essence of life.

Some even possessed a cultivation level and Divine Sense.

Such dishes, once consumed, could greatly benefit one’s own life essence. A common person eating just a small piece might instantly achieve the status of a Heavenly Being.

Of course, such delicacies certainly came at a steep price.

Therefore, Xue An began to eat with great relish.

For him, although the taste of these foods wasn’t much, it was a waste not to eat them for free.

After all, waste is an extremely shameful act.

So, one saw Xue An circling the dining table, starting to eat dish after dish.

This scene naturally drew sideways glances from everyone present.

Many people began to cover their mouths and snicker.

”Who is this person?” someone asked.

”Hehe, that’s the so-called strong man that Zhuo Yangyang brought back from outside!” someone scoffed.

”Is it that strong man who claimed to have saved the Zhuo Family’s ship in the Sea of Divine Wrath?” someone asked with heavy sarcasm.

”Hehe, I guess this ’strong man’ has probably never had a full meal before!”

This statement drew a series of low chuckles around; everyone’s eyes were filled with contempt, thinking Xue An was purely a country bumpkin who had never seen the world.

As for these, Xue An simply couldn’t be bothered to care.

He even simply sat down at the table and continued to eat diligently.

After a few more comments from the crowd, they stopped paying attention and turned their focus back to the main seat.

By that time, Zhuo Yangyang had already lost count of how many drinks she had had, and although they were all aged fine wines that also contained abundant spiritual power,

Zhuo Yangyang’s mind was still sober.

She knew she had about reached her limit. Drinking any more was sure to lead to trouble, so she forcibly calmed herself down and said, ”Grandma, Master Xu, I really can’t drink any more, and since you are discussing important matters, it’s not proper for me to stay here, so I will take my leave first!”

Saying this, she was about to get up and leave.

But just at that moment, Elder Madam Zhuo, who had been all smiles, suddenly darkened her expression.

”Sit down!”

Zhuo Yangyang trembled all over and involuntarily sat back down.

”Grandma...”

But Elder Madam Zhuo didn’t pay any attention to her words, instead, she turned her head and smiled at Xu Bao.

”Master Xu, are you satisfied with this gift?”

Gift?

What gift?

A hint of confusion flashed through Zhuo Yangyang’s mind, dulled by the effects of alcohol.

And upon hearing this, Xu Bao displayed a sinister smile and nodded.

”Not bad! A piece of top-quality goods!”

”Hehe, I’m glad you’re pleased! Then I leave this gift in your hands to deal with!” Elder Madam Zhuo said with a hearty laugh.
