Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 1534: Chapter 1531: Clouds of Sorrow (3rd Update)

At this moment, the entire island is shrouded in gloom and misery.

Because it has been a full ten days since everyone entered the underwater ruins.

During this long period, nothing has been heard from the Divine Temple at the bottom of the sea.

Everything seems frozen.

And the already dilapidated Divine Temple stands like a silent giant beast, swallowing everything, leaving only that gaping entrance, standing quietly there.

All the factions left on the island are unable to restrain their inner anxiety and have begun to stir.

”What on earth is going on? Why has there been no news after such a long time?” The members of the Alchemist Alliance are agitated.

”Yeah, could there be some sort of conspiracy?” The people from the Rampaging Evildoers speak with a grim tone.

”Hmph, if anything happens to our boss, the Tower of Truth should prepare to accompany him in burial!” This is what the Hunters Guild people are growling.

All in all.

The whole crowd is becoming more and more clamorous with the passage of time.

The people of the Treasure Seekers Guild look visibly upset.

Because those who went in with their president Yan Zhong are all the elite from the guild.

If anything happens to them, the loss would be immense.

But the most anxious of all are still the people from the Auctioneers Alliance.

Because Nalan Zhongqin has already become the soul of the entire Auction Alliance, if anything were to happen to her, the originally stable balance of interests would start to ripple again.

In fact, even now, with Nalan Zhongqin merely being out of contact, many people are already restive.

For example... the group that has just stepped off the aircraft.

At the forefront of this group is a lady richly dressed and with a haughty demeanor.

Closely following her is a young man.

Judging by their looks, they appear to be mother and son.

Upon seeing these people, the faces of everyone in the Auction Alliance immediately turned extremely unsightly.

At this moment, the elegant lady has already approached the crowd.

The head steward hesitated slightly but eventually lowered his head and said softly, ”Second Madam!”

Indeed.

The people who arrived on the island are the Second Madam of the Nalan Family and her son, who is Nalan Zhongqin’s half-brother, Nalan Changlong.

Seeing the Auction Alliance members looking as if bereaved, the Second Madam snorted coldly, then raised her eyes to the distant sea.

”What? That sweet young lady still hasn’t made any contact yet?”

The Auction Alliance people stirred slightly, the head steward’s face looked ugly enough to drip water, ”Still... still nothing!”

”Haha! It’s already been ten days; if they could come out, they already would have. I reckon my sister Zhongqin has already been buried in this ancient ruin!” said Nalan Changlong with a look of schadenfreude.

Hearing his blatant sarcasm, many in the Auction Alliance showed angry expressions.

The head steward also took a deep breath and said calmly, ”Young Master Changlong, the young lady risked herself to explore the ancient ruins, so I think you had better show some respect!”

”What? You dare to lecture me? I am a member of the Nalan Family, who do you think you are!” Nalan Changlong said with a face full of malice.

But his words only incited greater anger.

Many from the Auction Alliance glared at him in fury.

Seeing this, the Second Madam’s face changed, then she switched to a different tone, gently chastising: ”Dragon, what nonsense are you speaking, she is your sister after all!”

Hearing this, Nalan Changlong had no choice but to lower his head and remain silent.

Next, the Second Madam spoke with a fake smile, ”Actually, don’t misunderstand, Changlong and I are just worried about Zhongqin’s safety, but our Auction Alliance can’t wait here interminably, so how about this, I’ll accompany everyone here for another three days!”

”If, after three days, there is still no news from Zhongqin, then we should go back and arrange matters for the auction, leaving a few here to continue waiting, what do you think?”

The words were polite, but their meaning was clear.

Evidently, this Second Madam is here to try to seize control of the Auction Alliance while Nalan Zhongqin is absent.

But regrettably, without someone to preside over the situation, even in anger, there’s nothing to be done.

After all, this Auction Alliance belongs to the Nalan Family.

Seeing everyone, including the head steward, bow their heads, a trace of joy flashed in the Second Madam’s eyes.

”Changlong, set up the tea and food we brought, everyone has been working hard these days, let’s have something to ease up first!”

After speaking, someone brought over a chair, the Second Madam sat on it gracefully, and thus began waiting for Nalan Zhongqin’s return.

Seeing this scene, many in the Auction Alliance exchanged glances, seeing the worry in each other’s eyes.

If... the young lady really doesn’t return on time.

Then the hard-established balance of interests will completely fall apart, throwing the Auction Alliance’s future into uncertainty once again.

Just as the external atmosphere was becoming increasingly tense.

Inside the ruins’ Divine Temple, An Yan looked curiously at those standing in the hall, their faces blank.

”Husband, what’s wrong with them? Why does everyone look like they’re asleep, yet different expressions flash across their faces from time to time?”

Xue An smiled at her words, ”They’re caught in a dream now!”

”Dream?”

”Yes, strictly speaking, it’s a Trial Illusion Realm. With the help of this secret technique, they can learn much of the lost civilization!”

”Wouldn’t that take a long time then?”

”Not necessarily, because the time in this illusion realm doesn’t sync with the outside. What seems like days to us can feel like years to them! And I estimate... they’re about to wake up!”

Hearing this, An Yan showed a look of surprise.

”Husband!”

”Hmm? What’s up?”

”Is there anything you don’t understand in this world?”

Xue An laughed, reaching out to rub An Yan’s little head, ”Yes!”

”What?”

”For example... the thoughts of you women!”

”Pah! Slick talker!” An Yan spat, lightly punched Xue An.

Xue An laughed heartily, but at that moment, Nalan Zhongqin’s expression suddenly began to change rapidly, her eyelids twitching constantly, evidently about to wake up.

”Is this girl the first one to wake up? Her talent is exceptional!” Xue An said with interest.

At the same time.

Nalan Zhongqin slowly opened her eyes.

Xue An walked over, smiled at her, ”Welcome back!”

Nalan Zhongqin looked at Xue An in a daze, a trace of confusion flashing in her eyes.

Because to her, immersed in the Trial Illusion Realm for a full ten years, upon waking, many memories were mixed together like a tangled skein, leaving her utterly bewildered.
