Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 2271: Chapter 2272: Raising the Battle Standard (First Update)

As soon as these words were spoken, Yue Hongyuan was immediately shaken, and then his face became extremely ugly.

As the head of a branch of the clan, how could he not understand what these words meant?

It was apparent that this young man, who Yue Shifang valued exceptionally, wanted to use him as a sacrifice.

Thinking of being considered a disposable whetstone from the beginning, Yue Hongyuan fell into a near-hysterical frenzy.

”Guilty? What crime have I committed? I merely wanted to replace that sickly fellow, that’s all, is this...?”

Thud!

The dull sound of a sword slicing through skin blocked all his subsequent words.

Blood spurted out.

Yue Hongyuan slowly lowered his head, looking incredulously at the tip of the sword protruding from his neck.

Blood was dripping down the blade incessantly.

Yue Hongyuan felt dizzy, and all his strength was rapidly dissipating.

Meanwhile, a calm and cold voice came from behind him.

”Is it what?”

But at this moment, Yue Hongyuan no longer had the strength to respond to Xue An’s question.

All his muscles were trembling slightly.

This was a sign of his cultivation level rapidly disappearing.

Subsequently, Xue An slowly raised his hand and pulled the sword out of Yue Hongyuan’s neck.

The moment the sword tip left his body, Yue Hongyuan fell to the ground, his entire body convulsing unconsciously.

That was just residual nerve reactions.

As for his soul, it already vanished with Xue An’s stroke of that sword.

Of course, this doesn’t mean Yue Hongyuan’s strength was weak enough to allow Xue An to slaughter him effortlessly.

The real reason was that after Xue An took over as Commander-in-Chief, the pressure accumulated by the Yue Clan over generations was already at his disposal.

Under such a vast aura, Yue Hongyuan could only be slaughtered, without the slightest strength to resist.

And when Yue Hongyuan fell, the whole scene fell into a deathly silence, everyone’s gaze focused on Xue An.

These gazes held awe, confusion, and deep apprehension.

But at this moment, Xue An completely ignored the external gazes.

He seemed rather satisfied as he looked at the little sword in his hand, his eyes full of admiration.

Because it was only then that he realized that using this Crimson Little Sword was incredibly handy.

Yes!

This little sword was the one Shen Suqian handed over to him before her death.

At that time, Xue An didn’t think much of it, until he later encountered Lord Yuehua of the Yin and Yang Clan, when he vaguely guessed that the origins of this little sword were extraordinary.

Unexpectedly, upon using it today, this little sword turned out to be extremely handy.

Even after slaying Yue Hongyuan, the already blood-red little sword became even more agile and lively.

As if a pool of blood was sealed within, so brilliant and dazzling.

This feeling made Xue An want to try slaughtering all of Yue Hongyuan’s accomplices present.

But he ultimately controlled this impulse.

Because there are family laws, Yue Hongyuan acted recklessly, attempting to challenge the authority of the Family Head, now his death is self-inflicted.

However, not all of his accomplices deserve to die, especially since they all belong to the Yue Clan. If he were to slaughter indiscriminately, it could easily disturb the hearts of the people.

With this in mind, Xue An merely glanced coldly at these petrified, ashen-faced people before turning to leave.

Now that his goal of setting an example and establishing prestige has been achieved, these people would naturally be dealt with by the Punishment Hall within the Yue Clan, which was no longer a concern for Xue An.

As expected.

As soon as Xue An turned to leave, people swarmed in and took away all of Yue Hongyuan’s accomplices.

And Xue An didn’t pay any attention to this, he headed straight to Yue Qinghuan.

At this moment, Yue Qinghuan had also snapped out of his initial shock, and then a strange smile appeared on his face, looking at Xue An who was walking towards him.

”Congratulations, Commander-in-Chief!”

Xue An slightly raised his eyebrow, ignoring Yue Qinghuan’s words, and said flatly, ”Where’s the Training Ground? And what cultivation levels are these elite soldiers at?”

”You’re asking these questions... I naturally know, but the one who knows best is Second Sister. Shouldn’t you ask her first?” Yue Qinghuan said with a smile.

But before Xue An could speak, the second girl slowly stood up and said in a cold tone.

”The Family Head gave him the task to complete on his own; I am under no obligation to help him!”

With that, this second girl left right away.

Upon her leaving, the other branch heads also followed suit and departed.

Even Yue Junze, who intended to step forward to speak, was forcibly taken away by his father.

In an instant, the banquet hall became empty.

Even Yue Qinghuan didn’t expect this situation to occur, he couldn’t help but exclaim, ”Why did they all leave?”

Xue An chuckled lightly, ”If they don’t leave, are they supposed to stay here and watch me?”

Actually, Xue An was not surprised by this result, he was an outsider after all.

Although under Yue Shifang’s powerful suppression, these people could not and dare not express any opinions.

But this doesn’t mean they will cooperate with Xue An.

Xue An was certain that if he did not show any results, these people would definitely ridicule him without restraint.

But Xue An didn’t care about this.

Because what he wanted was not for these people to like or even support him.

He only wanted to quickly complete his task, and learn everything he desired to know.

At this moment, Yue Qinghuan obviously also realized this, and couldn’t help but frown slightly.

”If even they are so resistant to you, then your upcoming training will evidently not go smoothly!”

”After all, those who can be called elite soldiers were created with great cost by the Yue Clan, each chosen from thousands, making them extremely proud and unruly, having never submitted to anyone other than the Family Head. You, an outsider, will find it extremely difficult to tame them!”

Looking at Yue Qinghuan’s solemn expression, Xue An chuckled lightly, ”Isn’t this quite normal? If this matter were easy to handle, do you think your brother would have given it to me? As for the arrogance and defiance you mentioned...”

Xue An’s eyes burned with a faint flame, ”What I’m best at is dealing with insubordination!”

For some reason, upon seeing Xue An’s confident expression, Yue Qinghuan suddenly felt her heartbeat skip a beat, and her cheeks slightly flushed.

She quickly turned her head aside and said, trying to remain composed, ”Alright, if that’s the case, prepare yourself, I will take you to the Training Ground tomorrow!”
