Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 730: Chapter 730: Investigating the Root (First Update)

To be precise, it was after seeing Xue An and others behind Xu Gao that she was stunned.

However, her gaze didn’t linger on Xue An for long, instead it was fixed dumbly on An Yan.

An Yan felt this woman’s gaze was very sinister and couldn’t help but frown slightly.

Just then, Xue An stepped forward, blocking the woman’s line of sight.

The woman then came back to her senses, and her expression darkened as she said to Xu Gao, “Who are they?”

Before Xu Gao could speak.

Xue An said indifferently, “Are you the captain of this… what was it, the small team, Ling Zhu?”

Ling Zhu nodded, about to say something.

“Good! Now tell me, where did you send the Origin Power that you stole?”

Upon hearing this, Ling Zhu’s expression changed drastically, “What are you trying to do? Come…”

She tried to call for help, but then her whole body floated uncontrollably into the air, her mouth agape, yet not a sound could be heard.

Being in charge of a team, Ling Zhu, of course, had significant strength, a powerhouse who had unlocked a large part of her brain.

Different from the ranking of cultivators’ strength.

Within this Blood Skull pirate guild, technology was revered. To enhance one’s own strength, one would need to use technological means to awaken those dormant areas within the brain.

The more areas awakened and the larger the brain domain unlocked, the more terrifying the increase in both IQ and one’s own strength.

But she hadn’t expected that her own strength, which she was so proud of, was so easily defeated in front of this man.

She didn’t even know what methods he had used when she was controlled, not even able to blink.

“Now, I’ll ask again, where did you send the Origin Power that you stole?”

Ever since entering the fortress, Xue An had been scanning everything with his Divine Sense.

He discovered that the energy used within the fortress was purely technological, having no connection to the planet’s Origin Power.

This also confirmed one of Xue An’s speculations.

This kind of Origin Power from the world was most suitable for creating the blessed land and cave heavens used by cultivators.

This meant that the Blood Skull pirate guild definitely had ties with some Cultivator Sects.

But when Ling Zhu could finally speak, her first reaction was to look viciously at Xue An.

“Cultivator, I’d advise you not to meddle in things that don’t concern you, because this is not something you can handle!”

Xue An extended a finger, “I’ll ask one more time, if you still refuse to tell me, then I will directly invade your sea of consciousness and forcibly search your soul for the memories. You know exactly what that means.”

Ling Zhu’s face paled significantly, fear finally taking hold, “I… I don’t know where it was sent, because these matters are personally managed by the guild leader! I’m only responsible for sending people to collect it!”

Xue An listened quietly.

Ling Zhu’s eyes shifted slightly.

And then the sound of chaotic footsteps came from afar.

Ling Zhu’s heart lifted with joy.

But just then, a flash of light crossed Xue An’s eyes.

A powerful Divine Sense charged directly into Ling Zhu’s sea of consciousness.

Ling Zhu’s body trembled, her eyes immediately becoming dull.

In an instant, Xue An withdrew his Divine Sense, his face looking somewhat unsightly.

Because through searching the memories, he found that Ling Zhu had not lied.

She indeed did not know to whom the Origin Power had been traded.

By then, those footsteps had already reached the door.

“Lady Ling Zhu, is something the matter?”

Xue An glanced at Ling Zhu.

Ling Zhu immediately spoke with a slightly dull voice, “Oh, it’s nothing, I’ve already handled it!”

“Really, it’s nothing?”

“Get lost! I said it’s nothing!”

Only after hearing Ling Zhu’s scolding did the footsteps outside gradually disperse.

At this moment, Xue An released the Divine Sense binding, and Ling Zhu immediately fell down, then looked at Xue An with a blank face, “My lord, do you have any further instructions?”

Xu Gao could hardly believe his own eyes.

His team leader was famously known as the beautiful scorpion, an existence that nobody dared to provoke.

How had she become so respectful in just a moment?

In fact, he had no idea that Xue An, while searching through memories just now, had casually planted a Divine Sense within Ling Zhu’s soul.

It naturally made her obedient.

Xue An said indifferently, “Take me to your president!”

Ling Zhu nodded without hesitation, “Yes, my lord!”

She then got up and led everyone towards the more central area.

The checkpoints became increasingly strict, and even with Ling Zhu’s guidance, inspections along the way were inevitable.

Eventually.

They arrived at the heart of the fortress, in front of an antique wooden door.

One needed to know that in this place, steel might be the least valuable thing, yet a wooden door could be quite expensive.

Upon reaching this location, Ling Zhu also had to stop.

Then a voice, tinged with a hint of surprise, came through.

“Ling Zhu, what brings you here?”

As he spoke, a young man came over.

Ling Zhu was silent for a moment and then said woodenly, “I have an important matter to discuss with the president!”

“Oh?” The young man now noticed Xue An and An Yan, first taken aback by An Yan’s striking beauty, and then said.

“Then you’ll have to wait, the president is currently in a meeting with an important guest!”

No sooner had the voice faded than Xue An took a step forward.

“What are you doing? Get back!” Although the young man had a pleasant demeanor towards Ling Zhu, he was fierce and stern with Xue An, and as he shouted, dozens of guards armed with high-energy ray guns surrounded Xue An.

If Xue An took one more step forward, the guards would not hesitate to pull the trigger and blast him to smithereens.

But just then, Xue An looked up at those in front of him and said indifferently, “Out of my way!”

With that command, the young man standing directly opposite was blown away, slamming into the wall.

The rest wanted to shoot, but the guns in their hands suddenly turned to dust, throwing the guards into disarray.

Meanwhile, Xue An charged straight through the wooden door.

Inside, on a seat, there sat a figure that was rapidly fading.

Xue An sneered, and a blade of Dao Sword light slashed out.

But it was still a step too late.

The figure disappeared from the seat, and yet after the sword light passed, a few drops of fresh blood fell from mid-air.

“Who are you? Ling Zhu, are you rebelling?” A corpulent man who witnessed the scene suddenly turned pale, and then seeing Ling Zhu enter, he thought she intended to do something and could not help but shout angrily.

Ling Zhu said nothing, merely standing there with her hands down.

“Someone come, where are the guards?” The man began to panic.

Xue An shifted his gaze from the falling drops of blood and turned to look at the man, calmly stating, “No need to shout, they won’t be arriving for a while!”
