Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 1082: Chapter 1082: Holding the Sky Fire, Extremely Arrogant (First Update)

Watching the retreating figures of Xue An and his companion, Pu Yanru’s wine cup stiffened in midair. Her face, as lovely as a flower, still bore a smile, yet her eyes gradually filled with a chilling coldness.

Qi Hongbo spoke indifferently, ”Miss Pu, do you recognize this man?”

Pu Yanru shook her head, ”I’ve never seen him before.”

Beside her, Bai Chong waved his folding fan, ”So arrogant, I really wonder what he’s relying on!”

A murderous chill flashed in Qi Hongbo’s eyes, ”No matter what he relies on, since he dares to be so bold in front of me, he must die!”

Li Gang, who was grimacing in pain as he tended to the injuries on his arm, snarled in agreement, ”Exactly, the guy is as good as dead. Several elders from our Divine Temple, along with the Hall Master, will soon arrive, and when they do, I’ll skin him alive!”

No sooner had he spoken than his newly set arm broke once again.

Li Gang let out a terrible cry, ”That bastard, his strike ground my arm bone into dust, it will set back my cultivation by at least ten years. I must kill him!”

As someone focused on body cultivation, his body was his most treasured possession, his bones incredibly tough. This meant that once broken, they required a tremendous amount of cultivation to heal.

And so, Li Gang bore an intense hatred for Xue An.

Hearing Li Gang’s outburst, Pu Yanru said coolly, ”I understand everyone’s feelings, but before the Divine Birth Celebration, no one is allowed to stir up trouble. Everything... let’s resolve it all after the celebration, alright?”

Although Li Gang was furious, Pu Yanru’s words carried weight, as she was the spokesperson for the Curse Goddess. He dared not disobey her.

Qi Hongbo nodded slightly, ”Miss Pu, rest assured, we will certainly not make things difficult for you. We’ll wait until after your master’s Divine Birth Celebration!”

”Thank you, Mister Qi,” Pu Yanru replied with a slight bow.

At that moment, Ji Haoqiong, who had been silent all along, suddenly said in a cold voice, ”Afterward, I want that woman.”

His words caused an instant shift in the expressions of Bai Chong and the others.

For Chu Xiaoyun was someone Qi Hongbo had set his sights on first.

Qi Hongbo’s face turned rather unsightly as well.

Licking his lips, Ji Haoqiong added, ”Mister Qi, rest assured, I won’t take her for nothing. In return, the Wutong Divine Sect will lend you full support in controlling the Heavenly Fire Divine Clan. How about that?”

On hearing this, Qi Hongbo’s eyes lit up, then he revealed a faint smile, ”Mister Ji, you’re too polite. It’s just a woman, after all, hardly worth mentioning!”

Ji Haoqiong grinned, ”Mister Qi, if you don’t mind, after I’ve had my way with her, I can still give her to you!”

Qi Hongbo laughed heartily upon hearing this, ”To be honest, I really don’t mind at all! Even a wilted flower might strike me as rather nice!”

Qi Hongbo was referring to Ruan Jingshow.

Ruan Jingshow, who had been trying hard to be inconspicuous since arriving with Pu Yanru, shuddered at these words, her face turning deathly pale.

Yet hearing these men so blatantly discuss how to ”deal with” her junior sister, Pu Yanru not only didn’t get angry, she actually listened with a smile on her face.

Qi Hongbo then turned to look at Pu Yanru, ”By the way, Miss Pu! That woman just now seemed to be your junior sister. You don’t have any objections to us handling her like this, do you?”

With a few playful chuckles, Pu Yanru replied, ”With the lords in such high spirits, even if I had objections, I wouldn’t dare voice them! Besides, since Chu Xiaoyun is associating with people opposed to the lords, receiving some punishment is only what she deserves!”

”Oh? But I just saw that woman treating Miss Pu with a great deal of respect!” Bai Chong closed his fan with a light laugh.

Pu Yanru dismissively curled her lip, ”A woman whose family has been exterminated. If not for her hereditary talents being of some value, she’d be long dead!”

”I was just being kind to her, and this idiot appreciated it so much. Of course, I’d take advantage of a situation where I can gain favor without giving anything in return!”

”However, her days are almost at an end now, and the distinguished ones need not concern themselves further!”

Hearing Pu Yanru’s words, Qi Hongbo was momentarily stunned, then he nodded thoughtfully.

After a few more drinks with Qi Hongbo and the others, Pu Yanru then left.

Once she was gone.

Qi Hongbo and Bai Chong exchanged glances.

Then Qi Hongbo, leaning back in his chair, said thoughtfully, ”It seems the rumors are true!”

Bai Chong also nodded, ”Indeed, this Pu Yanru probably isn’t lying!”

Li Gang, utterly confused, said, ”Young Qi, Xiao Bai, what are you both talking about? I don’t understand any of it!”

Zhong Anan, who had been silent until now, suddenly sighed, ”Li Gang, what Young Qi and the others are saying is that the Curse Goddess’s organizing such a grand divine birth celebration is very likely because she is about to make a breakthrough!”

Li Gang shuddered at these words, ”You mean...?”

”Exactly!” Qi Hongbo nodded, ”The Mysterious Lady said a lot, the Curse Goddess has likely accumulated enough Divine Power and is about to break through to become a true Great Luo, ascending to the ranks of the Ancient Gods!”

”Hiss!” Upon hearing this, Li Gang sucked in a breath of cold air.

Even as slow-witted as he was, he understood what that meant.

An Ancient God-level power was someone who could influence life and death across a realm.

In the Tian Zhao Realm, only the Tian Zhao Divine King, who hadn’t made a public appearance in a long time, was an Ancient God-level power.

If the Curse Goddess truly succeeded in her breakthrough, it would bring a tremendously terrifying chain reaction.

”No, I must report this matter immediately to the Hall Master! Gentlemen, I will take my leave first!”

Having said this, Li Gang leapt up and vanished into the night sky.

Ji Haoqiong, looking disdainfully at Li Gang’s retreating figure, scoffed, ”What a fool, he’s only just learnt of such critical information! Young Qi, why do you always invite this guy?”

Qi Hongbo chuckled, ”Although he’s a bit simple-minded, he’s quite useful as a hound! Just like just now, without me having to say a word, he took action on my behalf!”

Ji Haoqiong nodded at this, ”That’s also true! I would want a free hound too!”

Then Bai Chong suddenly said, ”Young Qi, the strength of that young man just now is not to be underestimated, indeed!”

The others nodded in agreement, for anyone who could repel Li Gang in a single move was at least of King Level!

But Qi Hongbo began to laugh upon hearing this, his smile filled with arrogance.

”His strength is indeed noteworthy; had it been before, I might have feared him somewhat! But now...”

As he spoke, a pale blue flame suddenly appeared before Qi Hongbo.

The appearance of this flame caused the temperature in the entire room to soar.

In an instant, all the porcelain and glass within the room shattered.

”This is... Heavenly Fire!” Bai Chong was startled, then said in astonishment.

Qi Hongbo nodded proudly, ”Exactly, this is a wisp of Heavenly Fire personally bestowed upon me by my father before I left home! With it... no matter who the rival is, in my eyes, they are all but ants!”
