Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

All the men that were kneeling in the lobby were scared to death.

The lobby manager, in particular, was so terrified that his eyes were almost popping out of his head.

He would have never imagined that Xue An would actually kill someone. In public, no less!

Xue Lan was even more frightened than she was before. She was trembling from head to toe.

Everyone in Green Wheat Town could agree on a single fact. That Xie Hu was the local despot, and he was someone whom nobody dared to provoke.

And yet, he ended up having his neck instantly snapped in two by Brother An.

This sent chills right to the bottom of Xue Lan's heart.

On the other hand, the woman that stepped into the hotel with Xie Hu seemed completely at ease. She had a noble disposition and remained calm throughout the situation. "Well, that was a very decisive way to kill someone."

Xue An cast a glance her way, then turned to leave.

But just as he was about to exit, another group of people walked in.

The one leading the group was a well-dressed man with an unruly temperament.

The moment the man walked in, he smiled at the woman and said, "Sister Rushi, you're here."

Chen Rushi could not help but frown at the sight of him.

"Huo Heming, you're like a ghost that's haunting me. You follow me wherever I go!"

Huo Heming laughed and said, "Rushi, you've traveled such a long way to be here. For the sake of an old man like me, of course, I have to accompany you. And look, I have also specially invited a sage to come along."

Having said that, an old man with white hair stepped out from behind Huo Heming.

The moment Chen Rushi saw this old man, her expression became one of great reverence.

"It turns out to be none other than the famous Fengshui master from Middle Capital, Song Yi. Grand Master Song, I pay my respect to you!"

Song Yi smiled faintly and said, "Let's dispense with the formalities, Miss Rushi. I've heard about you and your filial heart. With Young Master Huo's invitation, naturally, I'll help you find the treasure you're looking for."

Xue An did not pay much attention to what these people were talking about. But when they started speaking about hunting for treasure, he paid a little more attention as he smiled, thoughtfully.

Song Yi went on to say, "Green Wheat Mountain is an imposing place and it seems to be interspersed with Dragon Qi. I am confident that there is a blessed cave with an earthly paradise in it!"

Chen Rushi was elated when she heard when he had to say. "What kind of an earthly paradise would that be? Does it mean we have to search deep into the mountain, bit by bit?"

Song Yi shook his head and said, "That would be an unnecessary ordeal. The best step is to speak to the locals, and find out about any oddities there are in these mountains."

Xue Lan suddenly spoke up. "There is a bottomless lake hidden in the mountains," she said.

What she said made Song Yi, Huo Heming and the other people around, turn their heads to face her.

Under the attention of these questioning eyes, Xue Lan felt somewhat nervous, and so she lowered her head.

Just then, Song Yi said, "Young lady, where is this lake that you're talking about?"

"It's just in the mountains, but very few people have been there. In fact, it's so untouched that people generally don't even know about it."

"Then… Could you please show me the way?" Song Yi asked.

Xue Lan looked at Xue An with some awkwardness.

Xue An however, seemed indifferent to what was happening, and he had nothing to add.

Huo Heming impatiently took out a stack of bills and threw it onto the table.

"This will be your reward. If we really find something, then I will double the reward."

Xue Lan was a little dumbfounded. This stack of bills amounted to at least twenty thousand.

To earn this much money, her parents would have to slog hard for the entire year.

But Hue Heming seemed to be casually chucking out these bills as if it did not make any difference to him.

The difference in their social statuses was painfully obvious to Xue Lan.

But just then, Xue An gave a nonchalant smile and said, "Great! It just so happens that I'm also going to venture into the mountains for a tour. Lan'er, just accept the offer!"

Huo Heming looked at Xue An the moment he heard the latter speaking.

Huo Heming carefully looked Xue An up and down. He took in the fact that Xue An was wearing very simple, ordinary clothes, and he could not help but feel a little disgusted.

"We can't just let anyone come tagging along now, can we?"

But Chen Rushi, however, nodded and said, "That would be good too. With a guide, we don't have to worry about losing our way."

Huo Heming was visibly unhappy to be contradicted.

Chen Rushi was a rich man's daughter, and she was someone that he had been romantically pursuing for a long time.

Her family wielded such great power that they were considered high ranking, even within Middle Capital.

However, even after such a long period of courtship, Chen Rushi remained cold towards him. She did not even have any kind acts or words for him.

Yet, here she was, getting so close with this man who was no more than a stranger. As a result, Huo Heming was greatly displeased.

But he did not show his feelings explicitly; he merely thought about it. "Darn it," he thought to himself, "I will put you in your place once we get to the mountains."

When all the preparations have been made, the company of people entered Green Wheat Mountain.

When they first arrived, many tourists were milling about.

But as Xue Lan led them further and deeper into the mountains, the place became more deserted. Soon, it was a challenge to even spot a single tourist.

As they continued further, there was not even a proper road to walk on.

By this time, they had completely entered the deepest regions of the mountainous area.

Xue An picked up his two daughters and yet, managed to walk quickly on light feet.

Huo Heming, on the other hand, was panting hard with every step he made.

Song Yi, meanwhile, would regularly take out his compass to check their progress. The more he walked, the more excited he became.

When they finally arrived at a point where it was impossible to venture any further, Xue Lan led the crowd around the corner. Suddenly, they found a pool of water in front of them.

The lake seemed bottomless and had indefinite depth. Even standing from a distance away, anyone could see that it was freezing cold.

And right next to the pool, a few stalks of Gentian were growing.

It was an impressive sight, but it was nothing compared to what was in the middle of the lake. Right in the center was a beautiful stalk of lotus that stood erect.

The lotus flower was perfectly flawless. Placed against a backdrop of the wintry mountains, it seemed very out of place.

At the sight of this lotus flower, Song Yi became worked up with excitement.

"This is it! This is the elixir that can allow the flesh to grow on bones and bring the dead back to live!"

Hearing this, Chen Rushi also became visibly excited.

She spoke to the bodyguards that were following her around. "You guys shall go and bring me that lotus flower!"

A few bodyguards proceeded to act upon her order. This group of men was very well-equipped and even had a complete set of diving equipment.

They gingerly stepped into the water with no problem whatsoever. They waded deeper into the pool and soon, began swimming towards the lotus flower.

It was not long before they reached the center of the lake. But just as they were about to touch this lotus flower…

Huge ripples appeared in the calm waters.

Then a serpent head, as thick as a water tank, popped out of the water surface.

This serpent head was triangular in shape and had a pair of vertical, snake-like eyes that emitted an icy glow.

Everyone was stunned.

The bodyguards were scared to death.

They panicked and desperately tried to swim back to safety, but the huge serpent opened its mouth and blew out a cloud of black fog. The smoke quickly enveloped the group of men.

The bodyguards did not even have the time to let out their cries for help. They were immediately reduced to pus.

Just then, Song Yi exclaimed in surprise. "It's a sea serpent. It has turned into a sea serpent!"

Sure enough.

The crowd looked at the monstrous pair of horns growing out of the serpent's head.

If these horns were completely formed, this sea serpent would become a divine dragon that would transcend above the Nine Heavens.

Following Song Yi's cry, the serpent turned its head around and looked coldly at the people standing on the bank.

"Quickly! Kill it!" Huo Heming's face was filled with panic. He pulled out a pistol, took aim, and fired a shot.

The people around him also pulled out their guns, one after the other. They aimed at the serpent's head and shot wildly.

But not only did these bullets fail to cause any harm to the serpent, it only made the monster angrier and more enraged.

It opened its mouth and breathed out another cloud of black fog. The thick smog headed straight for the people on the bank.

Huo Heming and Song Yi quickly jumped out of the way.

Chen Rushi however, was scared out of her wits.

This serpent had completely destroyed the view of the world she had struggled to maintain for so many years.

She was stood frozen in a mixture of fear and disbelief. Xue An grabbed her arm and pulled her aside.

"We're finished," Song Yi cried out in despair.

The sea serpent seemed to be enraged when it realized that it had missed its blow. Its entire body rose out of the water.

The body of the serpent was at least ten-meters long and was as thick as a car. It hovered in the air right by the bank. Then all of a sudden, the serpent made its strike and dove down straight at the crowd.

Bam.

With one hit, the ground was smashed with fragments of earth flying all over the place.

Before the crowd could run for cover, the tail of the serpent came swinging by.

If they were hit by this swinging tail, this group of people would all perish.

Realizing what they were up against, Huo Heming and Chen Rushi, were utterly scared out of their wits.

Without a doubt, the crowd knew that they were all doomed.

But among all the ruckus and cries for help, Xue An simply walked forward and grabbed the swinging tail of the giant serpent in his hand.

This sudden move left everyone in silent shock. Xue An let out a cold laugh.

"You're merely a little mudfish, and you dare to be so audacious?"
