Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 309: Chapter 309: Sword Slave? It’s Getting More Interesting! (Second Update)

Lu Xunxue’s face changed upon hearing the words, “Revenge?”

He then scrutinized Xue An for a moment, a flash of cold disdain passing through his eyes.

“Junior Sister Ruyan, I know you bear a deep-seated hatred, but you must not let vengeance blind you and trust others rashly, after all… some people’s intentions are still unknown!”

Lu Xunxue’s words were harsh.

Zhu Ruyan’s face turned pale, as if she wanted to say something.

Xue An waved his hand, signaling Zhu Ruyan not to speak, and then gave Lu Xunxue a faint smile.

“Are you suggesting that I’m harboring ulterior motives?”

“I didn’t say that; I’m just reminding my junior sister to be more careful,” Lu Xunxue said coldly before turning and heading back into the room.

“My lord, my senior sister is not aware of your cultivation level and deeds. She is just worried about me being deceived. Please don’t take her words to heart,” Zhu Ruyan quickly said, fearing that Xue An would get angry over this.

Xue An smiled. Of course, he had no reason to get upset with a woman unfamiliar with the ways of the world.

“Your senior sister certainly seems very concerned about you,” Xue An said lightly.

Zhu Ruyan gave a wry smile.

She and Lu Xunxue had once studied medicine under a highly skilled medical expert. Later, an incident occurred in Zhu Ruyan’s family, and she left Kunlun City.

Meanwhile, Lu Xunxue opened a small medical hall here.

They had a good relationship at the beginning, and Lu Xunxue had always been as enthusiastic as ever upon her return; however, she seemed not as friendly towards Xue An.

In the following days, Xue An stayed at the Jishi Hall.

Lu Xunxue was always cold to him, her gaze upon him like that of one looking at a swindler.

Zhu Ruyan apologized several times, but Xue An merely chuckled it off.

As the time for the trial neared, the main city of Kunlun gradually buzzed with excitement.

Streaks of light would occasionally fly across the sky, clearly the experts coming to participate in the trial.

At such times, many would look up at the sky with yearning, their eyes filled with longing.

For the common people of Kunlun, these Immortals flying to and fro were beings to be admired but beyond reach.

To be accepted into an Immortal Cultivation Sect would be like ascending to heaven in a single step.

Thus, the days when the trial assembly began were the liveliest in Kunlun City.

This time was no exception.

When the day arrived,

Lu Xunxue also got up early, and after grooming and dressing, she said to Zhu Ruyan, “Junior Sister, today is the day of the trial assembly, let’s go watch the excitement together!”

Zhu Ruyan replied with a smile, “Of course, we must go! After all, our lord will also participate in this trial assembly.”

Upon hearing this, Lu Xunxue was slightly stunned, then looked disdainfully at Xue An standing in the distance.

“Junior Sister, this man talks big. Be wary! The trial assembly involves the current masters of the entire Kunlun Realm, including the true disciples of many renowned Sects. What is he in comparison?”

Zhu Ruyan became anxious, “Senior Sister, Lord Xue is extremely formidable. How can you speak so lightly of him…”

Lu Xunxue shook her head and did not continue.

In her eyes, even if this Xue An had some skills, he certainly was not qualified to participate in the trial assembly.

She figured he was just boasting.

Wait until then, I’ll see how you continue to pretend! Lu Xunxue thought to herself.

The trials in Kunlun City were naturally extraordinary, held in the square of the Immortal Palace in the middle of the city.

By the time Lu Xunxue and others arrived, it was already crowded with people.

Now and again, cultivators with impressive auras would descend from the sky, causing the onlookers to exclaim in awe.

“Look, that Monk actually flew here riding on an eagle!”

“That’s Master Miyoi from the Western Regions’ Ahang Palace! Truly a holy monk!”

“And there are people from the Thousand Snow Sect, the Overlord Sect, and the Night Devil Palace as well!”

“This year’s trial is truly unprecedented!”

Amid these discussions, Lu Xunxue turned his head to glance at Xue An, who stood in silence beside him, a sneer of disdain appearing at the corner of his mouth.

So you’ve become silent now? It seems you were indeed all talk!

At this moment, these exceptional True Disciples, having taken their places in the arena, were also chatting idly.

“I’ve heard that the Imperial Son himself will make a move this time. It seems we have no hope of claiming first place in this trial!” said Miao Haoyan from the Overlord Sect, also a True Disciple.

“Heh, that’s not necessarily true, because Fei Bai of the Sword Control Villa will also be taking the field!” Cheng Lusheng of the Thousand Snow Sect said indifferently.

Fei Bai!

At the mention of this name, many people’s expressions tightened.

Because this person once was the nightmare of all the True Disciples and prodigies!

With a single Fei Bai sword, he had defeated countless opponents.

“Why bring up that monster? As long as we can achieve a good ranking this time, that’ll be enough!” Miao Haoyan said with a forced smile.

As they spoke, the crowded throng suddenly parted, creating a pathway.

They saw a man limping slowly towards them, his face gaunt and pale, except for his eyes, which were fierce like those of a wild beast.

Upon seeing this person, the True Disciples collectively fell silent.

Because the one who had arrived was the same ‘monster’ they had just been talking about, Fei Bai!

At a distant high platform, the Moonlight Sword Master was smiling as he watched the scene below.

“This time, almost every young expert from the Kunlun Immortal Realm is here!”

Unlike his calm demeanor, the people from several other Sects were all somewhat anxious and restless.

For instance, Fairy Thousand Snow now had a gloomy face.

Not to mention the Imperial Son from the Immortal Palace making his move.

The Sword Control Villa had even dispatched an unearthly prodigy like Fei Bai.

Moreover, many warriors from the Hidden Immortal Sects had also emerged.

This time, the Thousand Snow Sect would likely find it difficult to achieve a good ranking.

As for Fei Bai below, he had now reached the center of the arena, and no one dared to approach him, all keeping their distance.

Fei Bai didn’t pay any attention to these people; his eyes swept across the crowd, and then he slightly furrowed his brow.

“He didn’t come?”

Cheng Lusheng, with a coquettish smile, said, “Who might you be referring to, Lord Fei Bai?”

“Where is that Sword Cultivator who wielded his sword against Jizhou City?”

This comment made the True Disciples look at each other, perplexed.

“Heh, it’s probably just an exaggerated rumor. Although Jizhou City is a principal city, it’s remote; where could there be any extraordinary Sword Cultivator?” Miao Haoyan said with disdain.

These words made everyone nod in agreement.

After all, in the past trials, there rarely had been anyone from Jizhou participating, and if there were, their results were usually at the bottom.

At this moment, amidst the crowd, Xue An, looking towards the distant Fei Bai, revealed a faint, indifferent smile.

“It seems there are also sword slaves dedicated to the sword; things are getting more and more interesting!”

Lu Xunxue didn’t catch what Xue An had muttered but still frowned and said coldly, “You can brag elsewhere, but here, I advise you to stay humble. After all, those are Immortals, and if you offend them with your words, you won’t like the consequences!”

The words were harsh, but Xue An, upon hearing them, raised his eyebrow slightly and said mildly, “You should be thankful, thankful that you are Zhu Ruyan’s senior sister.”

Having said this, Xue An stood up and walked towards the inner field.
