Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 2193: Chapter 2194: The Exquisite Dice and Red Beans (Second Update)

”Good! Good for saying you can’t betray trust. Do you really think I’m afraid of you?”

With the final furious shout, Zhang Pengtian’s eyes instantly turned blood-red, and the aura around him erupted like a bomb.

The mighty and majestic aura surged directly towards Xue An, more than doubling in strength compared to before!

The Shadow Turtle Emperor couldn’t help but exclaim.

”Be careful!”

Because he could clearly sense that Zhang Pengtian’s state had already surpassed the Immortal Venerable Peak, with one foot entering the Saint Realm.

This level of power was enough to instantly kill him, so he couldn’t help but feel cold sweat for Xue An.

But in the face of such a violent attack, Xue An merely sneered.

”It looks intimidating, but unfortunately... borrowed power is never truly your own!”

With that, Xue An stood like a sword, slowly raised his fist, and directly faced the charging Zhang Pengtian, throwing out a punch.

Boom!

After an earth-shattering sound, Xue An took seven or eight steps back.

But Zhang Pengtian was once again sent flying, even further than before.

And before he hit the ground, Xue An appeared in front of him, reached out, and grabbed his throat.

When Xue An’s hand touched Zhang Pengtian’s neck, it was as if a switch had been flipped, and Zhang Pengtian’s aura receded like a tide.

In the blink of an eye, he devolved from an Immortal Venerable Peak expert to a ”normal” person with only Immortal Emperor Peak strength.

The whole transformation happened so quickly that Zhang Pengtian’s body deflated like a punctured balloon.

Seeing this, Zhang Jinju was completely dumbfounded.

What’s going on?

Why did his proud father lose so much power?

What did this guy do to my father?

Just as these thoughts flooded his mind, a calm yet supremely authoritative voice sounded in his ear.

”Kneel!”

As soon as the two words were spoken, Zhang Jinju felt an overwhelming force press down on his shoulders.

With two cracking noises, his knees shattered, and he collapsed to the ground in defeat.

Thus, Zhang Pengtian and Zhang Jinju were completely subdued by Xue An.

Even Yue Qinghuan couldn’t help but show a trace of amazement in her eyes. Then, with a barefoot tap on the ground, she instantly arrived in front of Xue An, curiously examining Zhang Pengtian, who was being choked by Xue An.

After a moment, she said with some relief, ”I see, I knew his aura was a bit strange!”

As she spoke, she blinked her light purple eyes, looking at Xue An in amazement.

”Did you know all along?”

Xue An nodded.

”No wonder... you really are a clever little imp!” Yue Qinghuan giggled, covering her mouth.

Appearing very pleased.

Meanwhile, Zhang Jinju, who was kneeling not far away, felt his body growing colder with Yue Qinghuan’s laughter.

He had held on to the last bit of hope, wishing that Yue Qinghuan would lend him a hand.

But to his dismay, not only did Yue Qinghuan not help, but she didn’t even spare him a glance.

This plunged him into utter despair.

At this moment, the Shadow Turtle Emperor had already rushed over. First, he nodded respectfully towards Xue An.

”Mighty Hua Clan, this great kindness of yours will be repaid by the Shadow Turtle Race. Now, can you hand over this treacherous person to me?”

As he spoke, the Shadow Turtle Emperor looked at Zhang Pengtian, whose face was turning purple, his eyes nearly spitting fire.

Xue An chuckled and shook his head, ”Turtle Emperor, please be patient. I will naturally hand them over to you, but don’t you want to know why they betrayed you, and whether your missing clansmen are dead or alive?”

The Shadow Turtle Emperor was taken aback.

Yes!

Why did they betray me?

What about the fate of those clansmen?

These thoughts churned in the Shadow Turtle Emperor’s mind, calming him down instantly, and then he nodded.

”Of course, I want to know!”

”If you want to know, then let me interrogate them for you first!”

Saying this, Xue An slightly relaxed his grip on Zhang Pengtian.

”Huff!”

Zhang Pengtian immediately started gasping for air.

Because just now, Xue An was not only choking him by the neck but also sealing his Divine Sense, cultivation level, and even his blood flow, completely.

This left him unable to breathe, sustaining his consciousness with only the faintest breath.

If it had lasted a moment longer, even that breath might have vanished, and he could have become the first Immortal Emperor to be suffocated to death since the path of cultivation was created by ancient great-wise men.

Even though he wasn’t suffocated now, his situation was still very grim.

It wasn’t until he had breathed for quite a while that the suffocating feeling began to fade, and he looked towards Xue An with a face full of fear.

Xue An smiled slightly, ”You don’t need to look at me like that. As long as you answer my questions seriously, I assure you, I won’t make things difficult for you. How does that sound?”

At this point, he had no ground to negotiate. For survival, he was willing to risk everything.

So when he heard Xue An’s words, he nodded eagerly.

”Very well! Let me ask you, where did you borrow your previous Immortal Honor Cultivation from?”

”This...” As soon as Zhang Pengtian hesitated.

Xue An raised his eyebrow slightly and said indifferently, ”What? Don’t want to say?”

”Ah, no, no, no... of course not!”

Then, Zhang Pengtian gritted his teeth and said bitterly, ”To be honest, my previous Immortal Honor Cultivation was borrowed from Linglong City!”

Linglong City!

Upon hearing these words, both Yue Qinghuan and the Shadow Turtle Emperor’s eyes narrowed.

The Shadow Turtle Emperor blurted out, ”Zhang Pengtian, you actually colluded with the people of Linglong City?”

Xue An didn’t know what Linglong City was, so he looked at Yue Qinghuan with a questioning gaze.

Yue Qinghuan sighed lightly, ”The term Linglong City is derived from the ancient phrase ’linglong dice of crimson beans,’ taking the first two words. And you should be well aware of what dice are used for.”

Xue An’s eyes flickered, ”Are you saying... Linglong City is a gambling city?”

Yue Qinghuan nodded, ”Yes, and it’s a very large gambling city! Whether it’s wealth, cultivation levels, or even life, anything you can think of can be wagered there!”

Zhang Pengtian chuckled bitterly, ”Miss Yue is right! My cultivation level was borrowed from Linglong City!”

”And the reason I betrayed the Shadow Turtle Race is largely because of Linglong City!”

”Because the entire Bead City you’re seeing now has actually been lost by me at Linglong City’s gambling table!”
