Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 713: Chapter 713: Shadow Dragon Guards (Second Update)

Behind him followed a man with a smile on his lips and slightly curled hair.

“Young Master!” The butler and the many servants all hurriedly moved aside.

However, the Cheng Family’s Young Master, Cheng Jinshi, had a grim expression, walking straight to Cheng Xiya’s corpse.

When he saw the tragic death of his daughter, Cheng Jinshi’s face turned ashen.

“Who did this?”

“Unclear, still investigating!”

At that moment, the man who stood behind Cheng Jinshi approached, “Father, let me take a look!”

Cheng Jinshi nodded slightly and stepped back a few paces.

Everyone’s gaze focused on the man with slightly curled hair.

Aside from a hint of wariness and disdain in the depths of Cheng Jinyi, the Second Master’s eyes, others looked on with respect.

For this young man was the most outstanding youth of the Cheng Family in nearly thirty years, and also the legitimate eldest son of the Family Head, Cheng Liangyu.

Cheng Liangyu, in his twenties, was already a Dragon Shadow Guard Commander in Silver City, highly regarded by the City Lord.

For such a person with a promising future, everyone naturally showed respect.

By now, Cheng Liangyu had already finished examining and silently lifted his head, anger flashing in his eyes.

“How is it? Did you find out anything?” asked Cheng Jinshi.

Cheng Liangyu was silent for a moment before he spoke in a deep voice, “The perpetrator was extremely cruel, first shattering all of Xiya’s bones, then using an unknown method to completely drain the blood from her body, as if… they were making a specimen!”

Upon hearing this, everyone in the room exchanged glances, their eyes reflecting a complex mood.

As members of the Cheng Family, who did not know that this Miss Cheng was previously most fond of torturing people to death and then making various kinds of artworks out of them?

And now she had met with the same fate in her death.

Cheng Jinshi’s face turned steely, “This scoundrel… not only did they kill Xiya, but they also hung her body at the front door, are they deliberately provoking my Cheng Family?”

Cheng Liangyu nodded slightly, “Father, I think this person is not just showing defiance, but also issuing a warning. After all, Xiya’s past deeds and her current manner of death are almost identical. It’s hard not to suspect.”

Cheng Jinshi gritted his teeth, “A warning… Hah! How laughable! Is there actually someone who dares to warn our Cheng Family on this land under the jurisdiction of Black Iron City?”

Right at this moment, a butler rushed in, “Reporting to the Family Head, we’ve just figured out that the last place Miss was seen was at… Riverside Town!”

Riverside Town?

Upon hearing this name.

Many furrowed their brows slightly.

Black Iron City was only a little over two hundred kilometers straight away from Riverside Town.

But because the roads were rugged and it required passing through a very terrifying wilderness, few people went there.

Unexpectedly, Miss Cheng was last seen there.

All eyes turned towards Cheng Jinshi.

For he was the head of the Cheng Family, and all decisions were up to him.

Cheng Jinshi then looked towards his son, Cheng Liangyu.

Cheng Liangyu clapped his hands lightly and said with ease, “Riverside Town… It just so happens a friend of mine is coming over these next few days, we’ll go there together!”

Upon hearing this statement, everyone in the Cheng Family breathed a sigh of relief.

If the Dragon Shadow Guard took action, what problems couldn’t be solved?

The next day, a person arrived at Black Iron City.

This was an extremely thin man, who looked as if a breeze could blow him away.

But Cheng Liangyu understood that if anyone dared to underestimate his friend, they would pay a very painful price.

For this man named Xiong Lei was a true Fourth Rank master.

Moreover, the talent ability he awakened was very strange.

Even if Cheng Liangyu were to face him, he would lose more often than win.

The Cheng Family expressed tremendous welcome for the arrival of Xiong Lei.

As for Xiong Lei, he didn’t care much about all this and said with some excitement, “I was originally going to arrive tomorrow, but I received your message on the way here. What’s up? Is there something fun or some powerful expert around?”

Cheng Liangyu sighed softly, “Someone killed my sister!”

Xiong Lei raised an eyebrow, “Your Cheng Family is considered a local powerhouse in Black Iron City, who would dare to oppose you?”

Cheng Liangyu said helplessly, “There’s always someone unafraid of death! Moreover, my sister died under very strange circumstances, do you want to have a look?”

Xiong Lei nodded.

Cheng Liangyu led him to the room where his sister’s body was being kept.

Upon seeing Cheng Xiya’s corpse, Xiong Lei’s face changed, and he said in a deep voice, “Such powerful Divine Sense!”

Cheng Liangyu was slightly taken aback, “Divine Sense? You mean…”

Xiong Lei nodded, “That’s right, the injuries on your sister’s body and the circumstances of her death were all caused by someone using Divine Sense to directly target her soul!”

Cheng Liangyu began to understand, then furrowed his brows. For masters like them, the last thing they wanted to encounter was someone who had awakened the talent for Divine Sense.

Because those masters of Divine Sense generally possessed unfathomable abilities.

Often rendering people completely unguarded against them.

“Are you confident?” Cheng Liangyu asked quietly.

Xiong Lei licked his lips and chuckled, “Unlike you, my favorite opponents are Divine Sense masters because their brains are the best tonic for me! It seems I came at the right time!”

Seeing him speak like this, Cheng Liangyu finally felt relieved.

“Then good, we will set off tomorrow!”

The next day, after preparing everything, the two of them boarded the carriage heading for Riverside Town.

All the way, Xiong Lei always seemed half-asleep.

Cheng Liangyu took the opportunity to kill demonic beasts along the way.

This time, the Dragon Shadow Guard he was leading, along with Xiong Lei’s troops, had excellently completed a mission, so they were granted a rare chance for a holiday.

He hadn’t expected to return home for just a few days before such an incident occurred.

He didn’t have much affection for his sister, Cheng Xiya.

Yet he still had to seek justice, because this was about the honor of the Cheng Family.

Imagine, the young mistress of the Cheng Family was turned into a specimen and sent back; if the Cheng Family couldn’t retaliate, what would outsiders think?

In this brutal world of survival of the fittest, show any sign of weakness, and countless people will swarm you and tear you apart.

For that reason, he too had to go to Riverside Town.

As for whether they could still find the murderer, that wasn’t important.

After all, once there, none of the people in Riverside Town would have any need to continue living.

They would all be sacrificed for the wrath of the Cheng Family.

Meanwhile.

In a tavern in Riverside Town.

Of course.

The tavern had long since closed down.

Xue Xiang and Xue Nian were playing with Chen Xiaomei.

Actually, there was quite an age difference between them; Chen Xiaomei was already eleven years old.

While Xue Xiang and Xue Nian were just seven years old.

But because Chen Xiaomei had been struggling for survival in the lower strata from a young age, prolonged malnutrition made her quite thin and small.

Even the two little girls were almost as tall as her now.
