Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 2712: Chapter 2713: Tower Beyond the Tower, Mirror Within the Mirror

Inside the carriage, there was a moment of silence before a calm female voice emerged.

”Young master, you’re too kind. If it weren’t for your noble intervention just now, I might have been harmed by that evil entity.”

Xue An smiled, ”Miss, you’re too modest. Just the power of that small round mirror was more than enough to instantly defeat those two from the Shura Hall without needing my help.”

”Nonetheless, I must thank you for your noble intervention!”

”No, no, I should be the one thanking you, miss, for helping me stop the guy!”

As soon as the words fell, there was a burst of laughter from inside the carriage, and then a young maid popped her head out and said with a smile.

”You two keep thanking each other so much, young master and young miss, have you not thought to ask each other’s names?”

For once, Xue An blushed slightly, as he also thought that the previous scene was a bit silly.

So, he retracted his aura, and with a serious expression, said, ”My name is Xue An. May I ask the young lady’s name?”

The carriage fell into silence once more, before a gentle voice responded from within, ”Yun Lingxuan!”

”Ah, so it’s Miss Yun. I beg your pardon for being forward, but might I ask what kind of magic artifact that small round mirror is?”

”Oh, it’s a treasure I carry with me.”

”May I have a look?” Xue An asked.

”Certainly!”

With the words, a white light flew out, and the small round mirror hovered before Xue An.

Xue An solemnly reached out to take it. After examining it carefully for a moment, a complex expression appeared on his face, and he released it.

”Thank you, miss!”

The mirror did not return to the carriage but hovered in front of Xue An, and Yun Lingxuan’s voice came through.

”Young master, do you recognize this item?”

”I recognize it somewhat, but it is clearly not the original artifact. It appears to be a fragment taken from a certain Fang Ancient Mirror and refined,” Xue An said in a deep tone.

Upon hearing this, the carriage shuddered, followed by the rustling sounds from within.

Soon, the curtain was lifted, and a woman clad in white cloud gauze stepped down briskly.

How could one describe the beauty of this woman in words!

Let’s just say Xue An, in his over three thousand years of cultivation, has seen countless beauties, yet this woman ranks steadily in the top five irrespective.

Her exquisitely delicate features, combined with her graceful and slender figure, truly resembled a fairy from dreams.

But at this moment, a hint of urgency appeared on this excessively beautiful face.

”Young Master Xue, you do recognize this item? Then do you know its origin?”

Xue An shook his head, ”Sorry, I can only tell this much; I don’t know which Fang Ancient Mirror it came from!”

Yun Lingxuan appeared disappointed, and the small round mirror flew back into her hand.

”To be honest, for years I’ve been seeking the origin of this small round mirror but have achieved nothing despite my efforts. So hearing that you, Young Master Xue, recognized it made me very agitated.”

She then bowed with clasped hands and prepared to leave, her face full of desolation.

At this moment, Xue An spoke gently, ”Miss Yun, please wait. I have one more question for you!”

”Please, go ahead!”

”I wonder who refined this small round mirror? Why does it possess such powerful hao-ran righteousness?”

Yun Lingxuan smiled slightly, ”It seems Young Master Xue truly doesn’t know my background. I hail from ’Lingering Fragrance Pavilion’!”

”Lingering Fragrance Pavilion?” Xue An arched his brow slightly.

This was the second time he’d heard this name.

Earlier, the azure-faced man who had perished had shouted this name upon seeing the small round mirror.

”That’s right!” Yun Lingxuan nodded slightly and, seeing the puzzled expression on Xue An’s face, added a remark.

”To be precise, it is an academy of women!”

Yun Lingxuan then briefly introduced the Lingering Fragrance Pavilion.

As previously mentioned, this world is rich in literary culture, with numerous academies.

Even among a plethora of academies, Lingering Fragrance Pavilion stands out as unique.

This is not only because it is an academy exclusively for women.

After all, while rare, academies exclusively for women are not unheard of.

However, unlike academies that cultivate daughters of the elite, Lingering Fragrance Pavilion only accepts impoverished orphaned girls.

Upon being admitted, Lingering Fragrance Pavilion trains them according to each individual’s talent and potential.

All through their education until adulthood, everything is free.

Afterward, they are free to leave.

However, the vast majority of the girls choose to stay, as Lingering Fragrance Pavilion is no longer just a simple academy, but it’s their home.

Saying this, Yun Lingxuan suddenly smiled, ”And I happen to be one of the caretakers of this Lingering Fragrance Pavilion. This small round mirror is an artifact of the pavilion, refined by generations of sages, naturally full of righteousness.”

Upon hearing this, Xue An couldn’t help but feel a sense of awe, not just for Yun Lingxuan’s identity, but even more so for the philosophy upheld by Lingering Fragrance Pavilion.

It’s easy to speak of education without discrimination, but putting it into practice is exceedingly difficult.

Especially since Lingering Fragrance Pavilion helps women who are mired in adversity.

This is all the more commendable.

”I see, then it’s I who was disrespectful!”

In any case, that surge of hao-ran righteousness alone was enough to earn Xue An’s respect for Yun Lingxuan.

Yun Lingxuan smiled and shook her head lightly, ”You’re too kind, Young Master Xue!”

With that, she seemed reluctant to discuss these matters further, glancing down at the bodies on the ground.

”But may I ask why a figure like Young Master Xue would come into conflict with evil entities like the Shura Hall?”

Xue An did not hide anything and chuckled, ”It was just a coincidence. At the time, they were about to harm an unarmed person, and I happened to see it and intervened. As a result, these guys clung on like leeches.”

Yun Lingxuan nodded, ”Young Master Xue would do well to be careful. Although Shura Hall isn’t particularly strong, they are vile in their actions and lurk in the shadows, so it’s advisable to be cautious.”

Xue An nodded.

Yun Lingxuan gave Xue An a deep look, ”In that case, I shall take my leave!”

With that, Yun Lingxuan turned to depart.

Xue An suddenly said, ”Miss Yun, are you going to attend the literary gathering?”

Yun Lingxuan paused, then smiled back, ”Oh, so Young Master Xue is aware of the literary gathering. Yes, thanks to the invitation of General Ling An, I am heading there to participate!”

Xue An also smiled, ”Then I wish you a safe journey, Miss!”

This time, Yun Lingxuan did not speak further, merely nodded slightly and, with the young maid’s assistance, gracefully lifted her hem and boarded the carriage.

Clop, clop, clop!

The carriage moved slowly.

Xue An stepped aside politely, and as the carriage passed by, the young maid suddenly peeked her head from the curtain and winked at Xue An.

”Hey, tattooed young master, are you going to the literary gathering?”
