Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 762: 762 Chapter Well Played! (First Update)

Just when everyone was shocked.

Gao Xinghai was quietly retreating.

At this moment, his heart was full of fear and regret.

Fear of Xue An’s power, regret for his previous offense.

However, before he had taken more than a few steps back, Xue An said indifferently, “City Lord Gao, sneaking off like this, where are you trying to go?”

As he spoke, Xue An turned his head to look at him.

Gao Xinghai’s body stiffened, and then he put on a fawning smile, “Xue… Lord Xue, I just remembered an urgent matter I have to attend to; thus, I didn’t have time to bid you farewell.”

A faint smile appeared on Xue An’s lips, “Oh? What urgent matter has made City Lord Gao so panicked, you’ve even changed color?”

Hearing this, Gao Xinghai, whose face was already pale, broke into a cold sweat and stuttered, “This… I… .”

Gao Zuoyu, who had been watching from the side, suddenly stepped forward, shielding her father behind her and said with a cold expression, “The matter began because of me. Take my life or flay me as you will, just please spare my father!”

“Zuoyu, step back!” Gao Xinghai cried out in shock before saying to Xue An, “Lord Xue, my daughter is still too young, please don’t take offense at her!”

“Father, don’t speak anymore, the trouble is my fault and has nothing to do with you. You have already suffered too much for me; let me handle this! Even if it costs me my life, as a member of the Gao family, I will not bow my head easily!” Gao Zuoyu said solemnly.

Gao Xinghai wanted to say something more, but, hesitating for a moment, he sighed heavily and fell silent.

Gao Zuoyu clenched her teeth, unwaveringly staring at Xue An, “Do it! Kill me or flay me, as you please!”

Xue An quietly observed the headstrong and wilful girl, and then he laughed.

“You put on quite the performance!”

This remark shocked both father and daughter of the Gao family, especially Gao Zuoyu, whose face turned deathly pale in an instant.

Xue An shook his head and said lightly, “Although you’ve disguised it well, your trembling hands and wandering gaze have already betrayed you!”

“I… I haven’t,” Gao Zuoyu said.

Xue An ignored her and continued, “Drawing back to advance, using this tactic to coerce me! I must admit, it is indeed a clever move.”

Gao Zuoyu, no longer composed, looked at Xue An with eyes full of fear.

“Such actions will not only earn you a reputation for filial piety, but if I were to kill you both, it would leave others saying I bullied the weak! Am I right, City Lord Gao?”

This statement was like a steel blade piercing directly into the hearts of the Gao father and daughter.

Because what Xue An said had completely exposed their little schemes.

Indeed, just when Xue An questioned Gao Xinghai about his attempt to sneak away, the City Lord of Profound Thunder City had secretly given his daughter a look.

Gao Zuoyu had understood and thus staged such a drama.

Their sole purpose was to capitalize on Xue An’s sympathy to turn the tables.

Even, if well executed, they could win Xue An’s admiration and thus attach themselves to this peerless expert.

But what the father and daughter duo had not anticipated in their wildest dreams was that Xue An would see through their ruse at first glance.

“Lord Xue, we… we had no choice, just seeking a chance to live, we ask you to show mercy and spare both of us!” Gao Xinghai began to plead.

As for Gao Zuoyu, who had been so defiant just moments ago, now fright had rendered her speechless.

Xue An said indifferently, “City Lord Gao, you really didn’t need to go to such lengths, because from the beginning, I never intended to kill you!”

Hearing this, Gao Xinghai secretly let out a sigh of relief, while Gao Zuoyu, who had been shaking like a leaf, no longer trembled.

“Thank you, Lord Xue, for your mercy!” Gao Xinghai exclaimed gleefully.

Xue An shook his head, “No need to thank me; I haven’t finished speaking yet!”

The Gao father and daughter’s expressions changed.

Xue An didn’t even spare a glance, continuing, “But this little act of yours really annoys me because it seems in your eyes, I’m some kind of fool?”

“No, no, no! Lord Xue, please let me explain…” Gao Xinghai hurried to explain.

But before he could finish his sentence, a cold light flashed in Xue An’s eyes, and a sword light swept straight past.

Thump!

Gao Xinghai, although a Golden Immortal powerhouse himself, had no power to fight back in front of Xue An and was decapitated by the sword light.

A head fell to the ground.

The spirit began to drift up.

But before his spirit could completely leave his body, sword radiance devoured and shredded it to pieces.

Gao Xinghai, the Lord of Profound Thunder City, dead!

Everything happened too fast, like a bolt of lightning.

By the time the crowd came to their senses,

Gao Xinghai’s spirit was completely annihilated, his body fell to the ground, becoming nothing but a lump of flesh.

Gao Zuoyu screamed, “Father!”

Then she turned her head and looked at Xue An with extremely venomous eyes.

“Xue An, you actually killed my father?”

“Why wouldn’t I dare?” Xue An said indifferently.

Gao Zuoyu’s eyes twinkled, then she said in a deep voice, “You are a peerless powerhouse, now that my father is dead, do you have the courage to let a weak woman like me go?”

Xue An chuckled at the irony, then started clapping lightly, “Bravo, truly bravo, such a perfect sequence of tricks!”

“Seeing that the situation is beyond salvage, you try to provoke me with words? Do you think I would gain a reputation for fearing your revenge if I don’t let you go?”

Then, ignoring the extremely unsightly look on Gao Zuoyu’s face, Xue An smiled lightly, “But I also want to correct two things. First, you are not a weak woman! From your father’s Divine Sense, it’s evident that you have committed many sins, like… hunting living people to feed that Three-Eyed Golden Retriever of yours!”

Gao Zuoyu staggered, nearly falling from midair, her face turning ashen.

“Second, you’ve misjudged me from the start. I’ve always acted to satisfy my own desires, so what I’ve done, I’ve done, and what others think… has nothing to do with me.”

As he finished speaking, Gao Zuoyu could feel the threat of death and screamed, “No…”

Crack.

Engulfed in sword radiance, she was swiftly chopped into powder.

Gao Zuoyu, just like her father, was completely eradicated.

After dealing with this scheming father and daughter, Xue An finally turned his head to look at Xue Liuli.

“Now, it’s your turn!”

At these words, the crowd was shaken.

Even An Yan showed a look of compassion, whispering, “Husband…”

Xue An understood An Yan’s intentions, smiled at her, and then, with a detached tone, said, “Don’t you think you owe me an explanation for this matter?”

From the moment she witnessed Xue An’s heaven-shattering sword, Xue Liuli had been in a daze.

It was only when Xue An asked that she gradually regained her composure, then lowered her head and fell silent for a moment, before finally speaking.

“It was my greed that caused this, so if you wish to kill me, do it, for I will not protest!”
