Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 2739: Chapter 2740: Shameless

At this moment, there was a commotion at the venue’s entrance, followed by the arrival of ”Xu Ling’an” and Xu Gaotian, the father and son duo, walking in one after the other.

Upon seeing this pair, Wu Jun, who had been lurking in a corner, flashed a deep-seated hatred in his eyes.

But that gleam of hatred quickly vanished, and Wu Jun bowed his head deeply.

At the same time, Xu Ling’an, who had a face full of smiles, seemed to sense something and turned his head, glancing towards the corner where Wu Jun was.

Just now, he suddenly felt a bone-chilling chill, although it disappeared quickly, given his ability, he still sensed it sharply.

But when he looked over, everything appeared calm and peaceful, without the slightest anomaly.

Xu Ling’an, or rather Shi Chang, furrowed his brows ever so slightly, and Xu Gaotian, behind him, sensed something amiss and couldn’t help but ask in a low voice.

”Father, what’s wrong?”

Shi Chang shook his head, ”It’s nothing! Let’s go!”

Saying so, Shi Chang led his son in large strides up to the high platform of the venue.

This was a specially arranged VIP seating area, so there were only a few seated here.

When Shi Chang and his son arrived, everyone there rose slightly from their seats to show their welcome.

”City Lord!”

”Greetings, City Lord!”

Shi Chang, with a gentle smile, pressed his hand down, ”No need for formalities, everyone please be seated!”

Only then did everyone return to their seats.

At this point, the venue became increasingly lively.

After confirming that the terrifying pressure just now had completely disappeared, Wu Jun finally took a deep breath and slowly lifted his head.

”Such strong pressure, such keen perception, if I hadn’t acted quickly, I might have been exposed already.” He murmured softly.

Duan Muguang’s face was also somewhat pale, ”Indeed, just a minor thought was detected by him, this old scoundrel’s power has advanced yet again after all these years!”

”Are you afraid?” Wu Jun said flatly.

Upon hearing this, Duan Muguang’s face instantly flushed with anger, and he quietly said, ”From the moment I embarked on this road of revenge for our master, I have disregarded life and death, so how can you speak of fear?”

”I’m just worried that this old scoundrel’s perception is so keen, would he escape when we act later?”

Wu Jun glanced at the furious Duan Muguang and chuckled lightly, ”Don’t worry, I’ve prepared thoroughly, even if this old scoundrel is as slippery as an eel, he won’t escape today!”

And just at this time, a tidal wave of uproar suddenly rose in the venue.

Many people stood up on tiptoes, craning their necks to look inside.

The reason for such excitement was entirely because the person entering at that moment was the shared goddess in the hearts of countless scholars across the land.

It was Yun Lingxuan from the Lou Wai Lou, whose masterful musical skills shook the world, known as the top among women.

At this moment, Yun Lingxuan, in a pristine white dress, came gracefully; her gentle and elegant demeanor left every onlooker breathless, afraid of offending the beauty.

Behind her was Tang Zheng, the noted scholar from the Qisi Poetry Society.

He occasionally showed a dazed expression at this moment.

Because Yun Lingxuan today shone with unparalleled brilliance, even outshining the past.

This made Tang Zheng, already deeply infatuated with her, even more mesmerized.

This daze only slightly eased when he stepped onto the literary meet’s high platform.

Meanwhile, Shi Chang stood up with a beaming smile.

”Miss Yun, your attire today is truly stunning, worthy of the Lou Wai Lou’s reputation!”

Yun Lingxuan slightly bowed, ”City Lord Xu, you overpraise!”

”Please, have a seat!” Shi Chang gestured to her to take a seat.

But whether intentionally or unintentionally, the seat he offered was right next to Xu Gaotian.

Today, also newly dressed up, Xu Gaotian, with a folding fan in hand, smiled slightly when he saw this.

However, that smile sent chills down one’s spine.

Yun Lingxuan hesitated briefly.

Just then, Tang Zheng said in a deep voice, ”Miss Yun, why don’t you sit by me instead?”

Saying this, Tang Zheng made space.

Yun Lingxuan glanced at Tang Zheng, nodded slightly, ”Alright!”

Having said that, she sat beside Tang Zheng.

Seeing this scene, Shi Chang’s face remained smiling, showing no change at all.

However, Xu Gaotian’s eyes grew colder, but at that moment, no matter how upset he was, he couldn’t say anything and had to endure it silently.

By chance, he saw a man in the distance gazing eagerly towards him.

Upon catching Xu Gaotian’s glance, the man was overjoyed, immediately stood up and waved continuously.

Seeing this, Xu Gaotian was moved and immediately stood up and walked off the high platform to stand beside the man.

”Young City Lord!” The man respectfully bowed and saluted.

Xu Gaotian didn’t even blink, saying indifferently, ”So the Ren Family’s Master is here too, and who might this be?”

Saying so, he curiously examined the girl standing behind the man.

At this time, the girl’s face was pale, trembling like a leaf.

But the more she was like this, the more Xu Gaotian found her interesting.

The man moved closer and said with a flattering face, ”To report to the Young City Lord, this is my daughter, Ren Xing, whom I present to you!”

Saying this, he turned and glared at Ren Xing, ”Hurry and salute the Young City Lord!”

Indeed.

This man was the head of the Ren Family, Ren Ning’s father, Ren Butong.

He had traveled from Ren’an City to naturally try to establish a connection with Xu Gaotian.

But since Ren Ning had defected, he presented his younger daughter, Ren Xing, in her stead.

Ren Xing shakily curtseyed, ”Gree... Greetings, Young City Lord!”

But Xu Gaotian slightly frowned, ”Ren Family Master, I recall you mentioned your eldest daughter, Ren Ning, not this immature girl?”

Ren Butong’s face turned pale, hurriedly explaining, ”To report to the Young City Lord, it was not my intention to deceive you; there are some unavoidable circumstances!”

”Oh? What circumstances?”

Ren Butong sighed, ”My unfortunate eldest daughter died of joy upon hearing she was to marry you, due to latent diseases!”

Ren Xing’s eyes widened.

She never thought such words would come out of her father’s mouth.

Xu Gaotian gave Ren Butong a deep look, ”Died?”

”Indeed, she is dead beyond doubt, so I present my younger daughter, what do you think?” Ren Butong responded flatteringly.

Xu Gaotian chuckled, ”Lift your head!”

Ren Xing, full of humiliation, raised her head.

”Hmm! Looks quite nice, although a bit young, but fresh and tender. Send her to my chamber after the literary meet!”

With that, Xu Gaotian turned and left.

Ren Butong, overjoyed, nodded and bowed repeatedly, saying, ”Yes, yes! I will certainly comply!”
