Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 1565: Chapter 1562: A Show of Strength (First Update)

”You can’t say that, after all, Qi’er has been cultivating since she was a child, she should have some insight!” said the Great Elder hesitantly.

Xia Yi sneered when he heard this, ”Great Elder, I admit you’re right, my cousin does have some insight, but to deal with those cultivators from the Zhang Family, is it something ordinary masters can do?”

These words from Xia Yi left the Great Elder speechless, because Xia Yi was not wrong. During this time, the Xia Family had invited countless masters, none of whom could withstand a single move from the Zhang Family cultivators.

”Therefore, I believe that Xia Qi might have been deceived by some ordinary masters, which is of no help to our problem. Moreover, the Zhang Family has given us a final ultimatum. Instead of wasting precious opportunities on elusive hopes, it is better to face reality and surrender!”

Xia Yi’s eloquent and well-founded arguments brought many silent nods.

In fact, due to the tremendous pressure from the confrontation, many in the Xia Family felt a sense of despair, thinking it would be better to surrender to the Zhang Family than to continue dragging this on.

The most enthusiastic and active representative of this sentiment was Xia Yi.

Though the Great Elder felt unwilling, he had to admit Xia Yi was right, so he turned his gaze to the Family Head, Xia Zheng.

At this moment, the hall fell silent, and everyone wanted to see what decision the Family Head would make on this matter.

Xia Zheng had been quietly looking at the letter in his hand. After a long time, he slowly closed it and said indifferently, ”Let’s make a decision after Qi’er returns! As for surrendering... it’s too early to talk about that now!”

As soon as these words were spoken, a slight commotion stirred among the crowd, with Xia Yi’s expression changing dramatically, and he cupped his hands, saying, ”Uncle, you...”

Xia Zheng simply waved his hand, ”That’s it, the meeting is adjourned!”

With that, he ignored the expressions of everyone and stood up to leave.

As he left, the remaining elders looked at each other and eventually shook their heads with a sigh, then all stood up and left as well.

Soon, most of the people in the room had departed, leaving only Xia Yi and his staunch supporters.

”Yi Brother, it seems the Family Head still harbors hope for Xia Qi and doesn’t intend to surrender now. What should we do next?” someone asked anxiously.

”Yes! Young Master Zhang said if we could maneuver the Xia Family into surrendering now, he would reward us handsomely. With the sudden change, how do we explain this to Young Master Zhang?” said another man with a face full of frustration.

Before he could finish speaking, Xia Yi swung his hand, sending the man flying several feet away, his face almost broken.

”Fool, can you speak such words carelessly? Even if these are our people, what if someone overhears from the other side of the wall? What would we do?” Xia Yi scolded, his face dark and angry.

”Yes, yes, Yi Brother, I know I was wrong!” The beaten man nodded repeatedly, apologizing.

Xia Yi, still fuming, paced back and forth in the room.

Indeed, as the man said, to gain greater benefits, Xia Yi had already aligned himself with the Zhang Family, becoming a front-runner for Young Master Zhang Yinchao.

In order to show off in front of his new master, he was striving to get the Xia Family to surrender as soon as possible.

He was about to succeed until Xia Qi intervened at the critical moment, causing his plans to fall through.

How could Xia Yi not be filled with rage?

”Xia Qi, you little bitch, ruining my plans. I should have kidnapped you long ago and sent you to the Zhang Family. After all, Young Master Zhang is quite interested in you!” Xia Yi stopped abruptly and muttered, his face twisted with resentment.

Everyone else dared not make a sound, standing with hands hanging by their sides, not even daring to raise their heads.

They all knew well the temper of Xia Yi, who was notoriously vindictive; those who offended him never ended well.

But cursing and wishing couldn’t solve any issues. After muttering a few times, Xia Yi’s expression gradually returned to calm, with a cold smile playing on his lips.

”Xia Qi, didn’t you say you found a supreme master? Well then, let’s see how skilled this master of yours really is!”

With this thought, Xia Yi sinisterly ordered, ”Send the word out and closely monitor the dock. Report to me immediately once Xia Qi returns!”

”Understood!”

Someone acknowledged the order and left, while the man Xia Yi had slapped earlier approached again, full of sycophancy, saying, ”Yi Brother, are we planning to give Xia Qi a bit of a demonstration?”

Xia Yi slanted his gaze at him, ”Oh, turns out you’re quite clever!”

The man quickly laughed ingratiatingly, ”Of course not, can’t compare to you, Yi Brother...”

Before he finished speaking, another crisp slap resounded, sending him flying again, this time striking the other half of his face.

Looking at the man whose face was swelling like a pig, Xia Yi said icily, ”Since you know you can’t match me, why say such useless words? Trying to show you’re smart?”

”Yes, yes!” The man hurriedly apologized, flustered.

”Hmm?” Xia Yi raised an eyebrow.

The man was on the verge of tears, not expecting his flattery to backfire so badly. He quickly shook his head, ”Ah, no, no, I mean, how dare I compare myself to you?”

”Hmph! That’s more like it!” Xia Yi snorted from his nostrils, ”Remember, no matter what I say, no one is to reply at will, understand?”

”Understood!” everyone responded uniformly.

Only then did Xia Yi nod in satisfaction and turn away.

The outside world, of course, remained unaware of the Xia Family’s turmoil.

As the opening of the Lost Paradise drew near, the entire Wuwang Cliff, indeed the entire Dark Frontier cities, began to roil with secret undercurrents.

Various factions schemed and plotted against each other, all aiming to smoothly enter the Lost Paradise.

After all, that was the core of the entire Dark Frontier, and also the key contested by various powers.

Only with a foothold in the Lost Paradise could a faction have long-term development.

In such circumstances, the protracted tug-of-war between the Zhang Family and the Xia Family seemed less noticeable.

And under these circumstances, this Flying Boat finally crossed the vast Dark Sea, appearing on the dock of Wuwang Cliff.
