Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 549: Chapter 549: It should be quite clear (4th update)

A few small dishes, a pot of old wine.

Xue An and Huyue sat opposite each other, suddenly both fell into silence.

“Actually, after you perished, I searched through The Multiverse, hoping to find your soul, but to no avail. At that time, I thought you were truly dead,” Huyue suddenly said.

“Seeing me alive now, are you disappointed?” Xue An said with a slight smile.

Huyue shook his head, “I’m quite happy! After all, if you were gone, The Myriad Realms would seem rather lonely!”

Xue An suddenly felt goosebumps all over his body and instinctively moved back a bit, “Let me tell you, I’m not interested in men, including male foxes!”

“Piss off! I’m even less interested in you! I only like pretty young ladies!”

Xue An snickered, then a brief silence followed.

“Come, let’s have a drink! To our long-awaited reunion!” Xue An lifted his cup and said.

“Sure! And to your return from the dead!”

They both drained their cups in one gulp.

Although for cultivators of their level, worldly wine already had no effect.

But swallowing this wine still brought a pleasant feeling.

At that moment, An Yan came over with a few plates of stir-fried dishes.

Huyue hurried to his feet to take them.

“I was going to ask the chef to come over and cook, but your brother insisted on eating at home, so I just whipped up a few dishes. Make do with them!” said An Yan with a smile.

“Sister-in-law is being modest. The great honor is mine to have you cook personally for me.”

“Then you two chat away, I’ll go to the inner room. Call me if you need anything!” An Yan left very tactfully after finishing her words.

A smart woman would never interfere with her husband’s drinking session, as it would only lead to annoyance.

Huyue watched An Yan’s receding figure, “Is this the girl you’ve been unable to forget?”

Xue An nodded.

“Very beautiful! No wonder you’ve been as steady as a rock for three thousand years, not even giving a glance to girls like my sister.”

“How many times have I said…”

Huyue gently shook his head, interrupting Xue An’s words, “No need to explain, I know it’s not your fault, and… I too have found a woman who only has eyes for me.”

Xue An happened to be eating a mouthful of food and almost sprayed it out upon hearing this.

“Cough cough, what did you say?”

“I said, I too have found a woman who only has eyes for me!”

“Is she blind?”

Huyue: “…”

“Alright, no more jokes! Congratulations!” Xue An laughed and raised his glass.

The two of them drank again.

Then Huyue spoke with a hint of emotion, “I’ve lived for a hundred thousand years and seen too much love and affection. I thought I had seen through it all! But I didn’t expect that upon visiting that world, the moment I saw her, I felt as if I was struck.”

Xue An listened with a smile and then asked, “Which princess from Fox Country is she?”

Huyue shook his head.

“Then she must be the daughter of some Heavenly Divine?”

Huyue sighed, “She’s an utterly ordinary mortal!”

Xue An was stunned.

“Do you find it unbelievable? So do I! But the first time I saw her, when she looked at me with eyes as wet and soft as a deer’s, I knew I was a goner.”

Xue An shook his head and chuckled.

“I know you want to mock me, go ahead, do as you please!” Huyue had a resolute expression on his face.

“You’re mistaken, I have no intention of mocking you! Because I understand that feeling very well! The first time I laid eyes on An Yan, I was struck as if by lightning, and I had only one thought in my mind, I’d even become a bandit if that’s what it took to make her my bandit chief’s lady!”

Huyue burst into loud laughter, “Those words should be shouted for all to hear!”

The two drank their third cup of wine.

“When are you going to bring her over so I can see what my sister-in-law looks like?”

Huyue smiled bitterly, “She’s just an ordinary mortal, and she doesn’t even know my identity to this day, how can I bring her out?”

“Oh? So you’re planning to keep hiding it from her forever?” Xue An asked.

Huyue sighed deeply, “I’ve tried probing her thoughts, but she’s a very determined, even somewhat silly girl. She says she doesn’t yearn for immortality, she just wants this one lifetime.”

Xue An’s mouth was slightly agape, “Did you get yourself an underage girl? Otherwise, why so naive?”

Huyue ignored Xue An’s comment and continued wistfully, “You don’t understand her, and even I don’t quite understand her! Perhaps it’s also for this reason that she attracts me like a magnet!”

“Enough! Let’s drink to the fox women who’ve escaped the clutches!” Xue An said with a laugh.

Huyue glared at Xue An but raised his cup nonetheless.

It wasn’t until it was time to drink that Xue An said softly, “Brother, my blessings to you! You’ve finally found her!”

Huyue nodded and downed his drink in one gulp.

After a few cups, the atmosphere became lively.

Then, Xue An spoke indifferently, “You’ve forcibly compressed your strength, even risking deception of the local Heavenly Dao Laws with a Nascent Soul Avatar so you could descend here, what exactly are you trying to do?”

Huyue sighed slightly, “Actually, I didn’t want to come here either, but there will be great changes in the mortal world, I had no choice!”

“Oh? Great changes in the mortal world?”

Huyue nodded, “Although you ascended from a mere mortal to an unmatched Immortal Venerable within a short three thousand years, you’re still too new to it, unaware of many secrets within The Multiverse.”

Xue An nodded slightly, acknowledging the truth in Huyue’s words.

The vastness of The Multiverse means that even an Immortal Venerable can’t possibly know all its secrets.

That’s why Xue An was willing to risk everything to take that next step and become a saint through ascension.

It’s a pity that he fell short in the end and ended up being reborn.

Huyue continued, “The power of Fox Country may not be the strongest in The Multiverse, but its longstanding history definitely ranks among the top, and thus, many secrets unknown to the world are recorded within Fox Country.”

“Take this mortal realm as an example! Although it has a low Cultivation Level and scarce Spiritual Energy, known as the desolate land in all four directions, rumors have it that this mortal realm is actually the very foundation of the Myriad Realms!”

“Oh?” Xue An was slightly surprised.

“At first, I too had my doubts! But later, I realized it’s all true!”

“If The Multiverse are the branches and leaves, then the mortal realm is the tree’s roots!”

“Moreover, to my knowledge, there are several places like the mortal realm in The Multiverse! But this one is clearly the most important!”

“Every great change also means a violent shake in The Multiverse Realms! Also known as a cataclysm! And now, such a cataclysm is upon us!”

Xue An said lightly, “A complete severance of heaven and earth, with the gods descending?”

Huyue was slightly shocked, “Yes, that’s exactly it!”

“No wonder recently, the Spiritual Energy here has begun to recover, and the gods and demons of The Multiverse are all trying to get their hands on this realm.”

“Then do you know what those guys are seeking?”

“What?”

Huyue dipped his finger in wine and wrote two characters on the table.

“Destiny?” Xue An was taken aback for a moment and then read it aloud.

Huyue nodded, “Exactly, destiny!”
