Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 540: Chapter 540: Let’s Get Acquainted, My Name is Huyue (2nd Update)

“`

Mount Fanjing, Lingying Palace.

Once a place of bustling incense burning, it had now become particularly desolate.

Even the roof of the main hall had a large hole in it, roughly covered with a plastic sheet, which made it look very desolate.

Creak.

The temple door emitted a grating screech as Shi Xueqing gracefully entered and began to light incense as was her custom.

One stick of incense daily, a practice unshakable by thunder so long as Shi Xueqing resided in Lingying Palace.

Only today, Shi Xueqing’s face betrayed a hint of worry.

She whispered to herself as she offered the incense.

“Great ancestor, please show your spirit! If you don’t show yourself, I’m going to starve to death! You should know that now there’s only me left in Lingying Palace!”

“The people from Jinfeng Courtyard at the foot of the mountain came again, claiming time and again that our Lingying Palace belongs to them, which is complete nonsense! But what can we do when now they have a cultivator of the Heavenly Human Realm?”

“Over the past year, countless cultivators have made breakthroughs. Before, Xiaoyao was scarce and Heavenly Beings were the pinnacle. But now, Xiaoyao is no longer rare, and Heavenly Beings are increasingly common.”

“Only I neither saved my cultivation level nor progressed, but actually regressed! If you don’t show your spirit, I’m afraid even this great hall won’t be saved! If by then, people throw your statue into the latrine, don’t blame me!”

Shi Xueqing muttered to herself as she inserted a stick of incense into the burner and looked up at the slightly dim statue.

This was a statue of a Fox Immortal, carved by an unknown but skilled artisan, lifelike in every detail.

Shi Xueqing gazed quietly at the silent statue and sighed softly.

“I must be out of my mind, wasting my breath on a clay dummy like you.”

Having said that, she shook her head and turned to leave.

But just as she turned around, a glimmer of light flashed through the eyes of the Fox Immortal statue.

Just as Shi Xueqing said, there was now only her left in the vast Lingying Palace.

Even a turtle that Shi Xueqing had kept out of boredom starved itself to death last month.

Shi Xueqing made a simple meal, and after eating, she moved a stool over and sat in the courtyard in a daze.

What was once a thriving and bustling courtyard had now become dilapidated and decayed.

In such an environment, Shi Xueqing’s presence seemed particularly out of place.

With her looks and temperament, getting any job off the mountain would be better than wasting away here.

For instance, the Yu Family had once earnestly asked Shi Xueqing to stay in Lingnan.

But Shi Xueqing still came back.

Because she felt that this place was her root.

As she rested her cheek in her hand and pondered, the gate to Lingying Palace was kicked open by someone.

About a dozen burly men filed in, followed by a middle-aged man with a sinister face who slowly walked inside.

Upon seeing Shi Xueqing seated in the courtyard, a hardly perceptible glint of greed flashed in the man’s eyes, then he smiled faintly.

“Has Sister Xueqing thought it over?”

Shi Xueqing’s expression darkened, “Fang Jinfeng! Do you truly believe Lingying Palace is without protectors? Your Jinfeng Courtyard has only moved here a few years ago, and here I have been for over a thousand years. How dare you claim this is your property?”

Fang Jinfeng chuckled, “Sister Xueqing, in this age, might makes right. If your cultivation level and your forces are inferior to mine, then I say this property is mine, what can you do about it?”

“And it’s not just Lingying Palace I want to claim, but you as well… After all, what you worship is the Fox Immortal, which, when it comes down to it, is just a fox spirit, isn’t it?” Fang Jinfeng said with a smirk, his face oozing licentiousness.

His words prompted raucous laughter from his followers.

Shi Xueqing’s expression grew even darker, and through gritted teeth she said, “Fang Jinfeng… you are courting death!”

With that, she summoned all her cultivation power and charged at him.

But she didn’t even touch the hem of Fang Jinfeng’s clothes before she was repelled by his aura.

“Hehe, in front of a cultivator of the Heavenly Human Realm like me, you’re like a little child!” said Fang Jinfeng arrogantly.

“What’s wrong? Are you angry? Hehe, who’s to blame when the Fox Immortal you worship is useless? Now everyone’s cultivation level has progressed, but you, you’ve actually regressed! You can’t blame anyone else for that. It’s just that the Fox Immortal of your Lingying Palace is worthless! Hahaha…”

Fang Jinfeng burst into laughter, but before his laughter died down, a streak of black light flew past, slapping him directly across the face.

“`

Fang Jinfeng was flung a dozen meters into the air by a fan and, once he landed, one side of his face swelled up tremendously.

The black light that hit the ground turned out to be nothing more than a broken brick.

This scene stunned everyone present.

Fang Jinfeng roared furiously, “Who? Who dares to hit me?”

Just then, a slight sigh came from the hall, “I never expected that in just a thousand years, this sacred place would have fallen into such disrepair!”

As the voice faded, a man slowly walked out from the depths of the hall.

Upon seeing this man, everyone was taken aback.

Because he was a man who could only be described with the words “bewitchingly beautiful.”

Whether it was his facial features or his bearing and movements, they were all impeccably flawless.

Especially those eyes that always seemed to be smiling, which could make many women feel inferior.

Fang Jinfeng was taken aback at first, but then he sneered, “No wonder you refused to leave at any cost, so it turns out you were hiding a man!”

Shi Xueqing, however, did not speak; she was staring blankly at the man.

The aura emanating from him made her feel exceptionally close.

But what was more important was the clothes the man was wearing… Weren’t they the same clothes that the Fox Immortal Statue was draped in?

Shi Xueqing’s eyes gradually widened in shock.

However, the man remained smiling even after hearing Fang Jinfeng’s accusation.

“So it is you who wish to take over my sacred ground?”

Fang Jinfeng’s face twisted with malice, “Boy, were you the one who hit me just now?”

The man nodded.

“Very well, since you’re poking your nose into our business, prepare to pay with your life!” Fang Jinfeng charged toward him.

But as soon as he moved, the man raised his hand and another black light struck Fang Jinfeng’s other cheek.

Bang.

Fang Jinfeng was smashed back a long distance, his other cheek swelling up as well.

“Now it looks symmetrical, doesn’t it! You don’t understand, I have a very serious case of OCD!” the man said with a smiling eye.

Fang Jinfeng dared not act arrogantly anymore.

After being struck twice, even a fool would understand that this man was not to be trifled with.

“Hmph, boy, just you wait!”

With that, he turned to leave.

But the man chuckled lightly, “You think you can just walk away like this?”

“What do you propose?”

“Leave behind one thing, and I’ll let you go!”

“What is it?”

“Your heads!”

Fang Jinfeng and his men were furious and ready to strike.

With a wave of the man’s hand, their heads simply flew off, and their dead bodies collapsed to the ground.

The man let out a slight sigh, internally criticizing himself.

Damn it, why am I starting to act more and more like that guy Xue An!

No, this has to change!

Then he turned to Shi Xueqing, who was gaping in shock, and smiled lightly, “Are you the disciple of my sacred ground?”

Shi Xueqing trembled slightly and nodded quickly, “You… Who are you…?”

“Let’s get acquainted. My name is Huyue!” The man smiled, pointing to the hall, “That statue you’ve been worshiping inside, that’s me!”
