Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 1054: Chapter 1054: Don’t be afraid, I’m just checking if your teeth are shattered (2nd update)

The banquet continued, groups of acquaintances gathered together, chatting and laughing amidst clinking glasses, presenting a scene of peace and harmony through song and dance.

But beyond these small circles, Xue An and Zhuo Yangyang were completely isolated.

Everyone deliberately kept their distance from the two of them.

To these people, this Xue An was too reckless, having offended the Zhuo Family, Tian Fu Pavilion, and the Jin Family, all without any solid backing.

Furthermore, the recent demeanor of Her Majesty indicated that she disapproved of Xue An’s actions.

Thus, even those who bore no ill will towards Xue An dared not approach him.

After all, to many, it seemed that Xue An was clearly in a hopeless situation, and it was only a matter of time.

However, amidst everyone’s odd glances, Xue An led Zhuo Yangyang to the dining table, picked up the exquisite dishes, and began to eat as if no one else were present.

After a few bites, Xue An looked up at Zhuo Yangyang, who was holding her plate and appeared somewhat distracted, and couldn’t help but smile, ”Eat, why aren’t you eating?”

”Ah...” Zhuo Yangyang was startled, then nodded with some difficulty, ”Yes!”

Saying that, she also started to eat bit by bit.

It was clear that she was preoccupied and found the food tasteless.

People began to whisper quietly.

”Tsk tsk, to still be able to eat at a time like this, I really admire Xue An’s courage!”

”Yes! If I were him, I’d have slipped away quietly by now! Staying here is like courting death, right?”

Although these murmured comments were not loud, they still reached Zhuo Yangyang’s ears, causing her complexion to look increasingly worse.

Xue An, as if he heard nothing, continued to eat slowly.

At that moment, Zhuo Ya, dressed in a sophisticated and expensive evening gown, walked over gracefully.

And behind her, followed a group of ladies dressed flamboyantly and lavishly.

Seeing Zhuo Ya, a flash of fear appeared in Zhuo Yangyang’s eyes, and she instinctively took a step back.

”Well, if it isn’t Miss Zhuo! What’s the matter? Haven’t seen each other for a few days, and you don’t even know to greet me?” Zhuo Ya said mockingly.

Zhuo Yangyang’s face turned pale, and she retorted in a low voice, ”Zhuo Ya, I am no longer part of your Zhuo Family, so please do not speak to me with that attitude!”

”That attitude? What attitude?” Zhuo Ya scoffed, then turned to look at the group of girls behind her.

”I’m sure everyone here recognizes her! If not, no worries, I can introduce her: she was once part of our Zhuo Family! Her mother was a servant girl who served my father. But who knows what methods she used to actually conceive my father’s child! And she finally gave birth to her!”

”In other words, just the daughter of a lowly servant!”

Zhuo Ya’s words incited laughter among the group of women.

”Oh, so that’s the case!”

”Tsk tsk, no wonder!”

At this moment, their voices attracted the attention of many around.

The words from Zhuo Ya rendered Zhuo Yangyang’s face deathly pale, with tears glimmering in her eyes. She couldn’t help but steal a glance at Xue An, wondering what his reaction would be.

However, Xue An seemed to have been captivated by the feast on the table, continuously eating, and appeared as if he hadn’t heard anything.

Zhuo Yangyang’s heart sank, and for a moment, she was at a loss for words.

Seeing Xue An’s reaction, Zhuo Ya secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Truth be told, she was quite fearful of Xue An; after all, the slap she had received at the docks still made her cheek tingle.

Xue An now seemed to be afraid as well.

This finally put Zhuo Ya’s anxious heart at ease.

Mother was right, Xue An really was afraid!

Thinking this, Zhuo Ya looked triumphantly at Zhuo Yangyang, ”Zhuo Yangyang, all your scheming, thinking that having a backer would let you do whatever you want to the Zhuo family. But don’t you see? Your backer is now unable to protect even himself.”

With that, Zhuo Ya glanced disdainfully at Xue An, who was eating his meal, and sneered, ”Where’s that arrogance from before? Why is it gone? Do you feel timid now that all these nobles are here, only daring to hide and eat your food?”

This provoked giggles from the group of ladies around them.

Some even began to talk recklessly.

”Tsk tsk, he looks alright, but he’s just too dumb!”

”Look at him, probably just a bumpkin from nowhere. Thought he was incredible and acted all high and mighty! Now he’s calmed down, hasn’t he?”

”Exactly, did he really think the Cursed City was his own backyard? Ridiculous!”

These harsh comments darkened Zhuo Yangyang’s expression, and suddenly, he bellowed.

”Shut up!”

His shout made several women standing at the front stagger back a few steps.

All of them were stunned; then, Zhuo Ya angrily said, ”Zhuo Yangyang, what are you trying to do? I’m telling you, this is a banquet set by the Empress. If you dare...”

Before she could finish, Xue An, who was still at the table, said without even looking up, ”Yang Yang, smash her teeth out!”

Zhuo Ya was taken aback, about to scream.

But Zhuo Yangyang, quick as lightning, rushed to Zhuo Ya, grabbed her hair, and struck her with several resounding slaps both front and back.

Slap, slap.

After a few hits, Zhuo Ya’s face visibly swelled.

Zhuo Yangyang then let go, his face stern.

Zhuo Ya collapsed to the ground like a muddy mess, then spat out a mouthful of blood mixed with broken teeth.

This shocked the onlookers completely.

The women who came with Zhuo Ya in particular, stared in horror at the scene.

”Zhuo Yangyang... you... you actually dared to hit me?” Since all her teeth had been shattered, Zhuo Ya’s words whistled through gaps.

Zhuo Yangyang coldly said, ”Surprised? Demean my master again, and I’ll smash your face too!”

Zhuo Ya trembled all over, about to say something.

Xue An, who had been eating thus far, set down his plate and sighed lightly.

”Truthfully, I hate it when people talk while I’m eating.”

With that, Xue An turned his head towards Zhuo Ya on the ground and gave her a chilling smile.

”Especially women like you!”

Seeing Xue An’s smile, Zhuo Ya shuddered violently.

Meanwhile, Xue An slowly walked towards her.

”You... what do you want to do? I must tell you, this is the City Lord’s Mansion, you...”

Unmoved, Xue An approached Zhuo Ya, slowly squatted down, and looked at her swollen face, smiling faintly.

”Don’t be scared, I won’t hit you! I just want to see if all your teeth have been shattered!”
