Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 679: Chapter 679: Grand Banquet (3rd Update)

By the time Xue An was escorted by the grand motorcade to the venue of the banquet, the hotel had already been spruced up.

As soon as Xue An stepped out of the car,

he saw two formidable troops march up in unison.

The troop that walked in the front came to a halt in front of Xue An with a snap, and then shouted in chorus, “Instructor, we’ve seen you!”

They were the members of Fire Phoenix Special Forces.

Following closely behind was another troop, slightly less impressive but still exceptionally brave.

...
“Mr. Xue, we’ve seen you!” the members of this troop yelled out in unison.

They were the Blood Qilin Special Forces under Commander Hu, led by Zhang Chu, the contemporary heir of the Heavenly Master Mansion.

On seeing this, Xue An smiled slightly and then nodded.

At that moment, from a car in the back, Zhou Daniu opened the door and hurried over, unable to wait.

Since his resurrection by Xue An, he had been left to hold the fort in Xiangjiang, and this time, he had also come back to Zhongdu.

Although everyone knew that Instructor Zhou Daniu had been resurrected, the sight of him in the flesh still touched the hearts of Fire Phoenix members deeply.

Especially Zou Yi, who practically hopped and skipped over, then unthinkingly clambered onto Zhou Daniu’s back, his eyes reddening as he said,

“Damn it, you big oaf, do you know how many tears we all shed for you? You absolutely must treat us this time you’re back!”

“Right, treat us!”

“Exactly, and it has to be the kind that knocks us dead!”

These voices rose and fell, and Zhou Daniu scratched his head, chuckling good-naturedly, “Sure! I, Da Niu, will definitely treat everyone to a good drink!”

Upon hearing this, the soldiers of Fire Phoenix burst into roaring laughter, one by one rushing to embrace Zhou Daniu.

Such strong brotherly camaraderie also moved many onlookers significantly.

At this time, Zhang Chu also stepped forward and respectfully said, “Sir!”

Xue An nodded and glanced at the Blood Qilin members behind him, his eyes lighting up.

“You’ve actually managed to fully grasp and integrate the art of the true soldiers of Dao Mansion that I imparted to you in such a short time?”

Zhang Chu scratched his scalp, a bit embarrassed as he said, “After the world became chaotic, I led the troops to battle everywhere, so I’ve made rapid progress.”

Xue An patted his shoulder with some appreciation, “It’s not entirely that reason; you’re a decent commander as well.”

Upon hearing this, Zhang Chu’s face gradually lit up, and he nodded vigorously, “Thank you, sir. All the credit goes to you; Zhang Chu will never forget it.”

Xue An smiled, just about to speak,

when he saw many familiar faces making their way over.

Griffin, the ghoul from the City of Sin, was the most exaggerated, kneeling down from a distance, then crawling over to kiss the tips of Xue An’s shoes.

“My revered lord, your divine might has spread throughout the world, and as your servant, I am profoundly honored.”

Xue An kicked Griffin to the ground with a foot, then laughed and scolded, “Cut it out with that crap; get up and talk!”

Griffin chuckled sheepishly and brushed himself off before standing up.

“Oh~ my dear lord, everything I just said came from the heart!”

Griffin’s exaggerated tone caused a roar of laughter from the people around him.

Xue An shook his head helplessly, about to say something,

when Xiao Sha, unbeknownst to anyone, had already squeezed to the front, giving Griffin a sly smile.

“Griffin, long time no see!”

At first, Griffin did not recognize Xiao Sha; it was only after a careful look that he trembled all over, “Li… Little Sha, sir?”

Xiao Sha made a gesture to Xiao Yu, who was behind him, and Xiao Yu went forward in a brown-nosing manner and grabbed Griffin’s tie.

“Come on, let’s go aside and catch up!”

After saying that, he dragged Griffin away,

and it was not long before Griffin’s exaggerated screams could be heard.

This once vicious guy has become more and more of a jokester now.

Following behind Griffin were people from the provincial city and Beijiang.

Then, Xue An’s gaze rested on someone, and he spoke with a touch of surprise.

“Jingjing? When did you get here? Where are Uncle Xie and Auntie Pang?”

Hiding behind the crowd was none other than Xie Jingjing.

Upon hearing Xue An’s words, her body trembled slightly, then she slowly approached, playing with the hem of her clothes somewhat shyly.

“Mr., my dad and mom can’t sit still, they’re helping out in the kitchen…”

Before she could finish, Xue An had already ruffled her hair, smiling as he said, “Come on, you’re still so formal with your brother Xiao An?”

Xie Jingjing stiffened for a moment, and then a relieved smile spread across her face.

“Mm, brother Xiao An!”

The girl’s heart had been extremely conflicted.

Since the chaos in the world began, Old Xie’s restaurant naturally couldn’t continue, but since Qin Yu knew that Old Xie’s family had a very close relationship with Xue An, he made sure they were looked after, so Old Xie’s family hadn’t suffered much impact.

But those days were utterly hopeless because with no hope in sight, all they could do was to live in fear under the tyranny of gods and demons.

Not until Xue An returned, began to slaughter gods and demons, did everyone see hope again.

The Old Xie family was no exception; whenever news of Xue An slaying gods and demons arrived, Old Xie would excitedly indulge in a couple of drinks.

Only then would Auntie Pang not scold Old Xie and would even deliberately cook a few more dishes to accompany him in his drinking.

As news of Xue An’s returning to Zhongdu spread, Old Xie’s family was also invited and taken to Zhongdu.

But before seeing Xue An, Xie Jingjing’s feelings were complex.

She certainly wanted to see brother Xiao An, yet she was also afraid to see him.

Because she was now very clear that brother Xiao An, who had become the greatest figure of this era, was simply unattainable for her.

Not until Xue An acted so naturally and affectionately did Xie Jingjing’s heart suddenly settle.

Why think so much? At least, he’s still my brother Xiao An!

With this thought in mind, Xie Jingjing naturally followed behind Xue An, chatting and laughing with Tang Xuan’er and others as they entered the banquet hall.

The banquet hall was already packed with onlookers, and when they saw Xue An enter, a round of enthusiastic applause broke out.

Xue An nodded and smiled, then was guided to the central position.

Only when he sat down did the others take their seats, and then the banquet officially began.

Because of the prolonged fear and anxiety they had endured, many people were tense, and now suddenly relaxing, the atmosphere swiftly became extremely lively.

Just then, the Commander-in-chief of the Nation stood up, lifted his cup, and cleared his throat.

“Everyone, please quiet down a bit!”

The large banquet hall quickly hushed.

Then, the Commander-in-chief continued, “Ladies and gentlemen, before all this, who could have imagined we’d one day be sitting here together, drinking so peacefully?”

Upon hearing this statement, many fell silent.

Indeed, when the world was occupied by gods and demons, who was in the mood to drink?

“To tell the truth, I was also in despair because those gods and demons were too powerful! Humans were simply no match for them!”

“But the Hua Clan did not submit, because we knew, there was nothing good to discuss with those gods and demons, there was only one word for it, fight! Fight if we’re winning, fight even if we’re not! This is the spirit of the Hua people.”

“However, because of this, we lost so many people; it can’t be helped, war necessitates casualties! But thankfully, we ultimately triumphed, because Mr. Xue helped us!”

“Therefore, I propose, this cup, we drink to Mr. Xue!”

The entire banquet hall resounded in agreement.

Everyone raised their glasses, ready to toast to Xue An.

But just at that moment, an inopportune, chilly female voice came from outside.

“Really quite lively! As expected of ants, even on the brink of death they’re clueless!”
