Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 1255: Chapter 1252: All the Nobles Emerge (Fourth Update)

Just as Baili Shaoguang hastened on his journey with all his might.

High above in the sky, another team was flying quietly.

In the center of the team was a pitch-black sedan chair.

At the moment, the sedan chair was engulfed in a black light, flying with an eye-catching speed.

The sedan chair didn’t appear large from the outside, but it was extremely spacious inside, and extravagantly furnished.

At this moment, inside the sedan chair, Zeng Jialiang, the eldest son of the Zeng Family, was smilingly lifting his cup, and gave a nod to the pale-faced man sitting opposite him.

”Come on, Brother Jin, let’s drink together!”

Jin Haorang shivered slightly, awakening from his contemplation, and then also lifted a cup of wine, drinking it down together.

After the drink, they set down their cups.

Zeng Jialiang smiled lightly, ”Seeing Brother Jin constantly distracted, could it be that you’re worrying about the opportunity at hand?”

Upon hearing this, Jin Haorang sighed, ”Indeed! Brother Zeng, to be honest, ever since we left Jingdu, I’ve been somewhat on edge, feeling like this trip won’t go that smoothly!”

Zeng Jialiang laughed heartily, ”Since when did Brother Jin start to believe in such feelings? As the eldest son of Jing Country’s number one royal merchant, the Jin Family, could it be that you’ve also grown fearful?”

Jin Haorang smiled bitterly and shook his head, ”Of course, it’s not about fear, and with the presence of Young Master Zeng here, I have even more confidence!”

Zeng Jialiang responded with a proud smile, noncommittal.

Because Jin Haorang’s status was noble, he was not inferior.

After all, if one were to talk about the noble families of Jing Country, the Zeng Family would certainly be included.

”What, then, is Brother Jin worried about?” Zeng Jialiang asked indifferently.

Jin Haorang said in a deep voice: ”The Xing Family was once considered a pillar of the state for Jing Country, yet due to disagreements with the Imperial Family, they met with a disastrous end, leaving only Xing Yuhe and Xing Yushu who managed to escape. It’s been years since they vanished without a trace, making it impossible for anyone to find them! Until recently, through the unique poison in their systems, we located where they’ve been!”

”Because of this, many of Jing Country’s nobility have rallied to capture the opportunity on Xing Yuhe’s person! However, I feel there’s more to this matter than meets the eye!”

Zeng Jialiang slightly raised his eyebrow, ”Oh? Why would Brother Jin say that?”

Jin Haorang pondered for a long while, then said with a wry smile, ”I can’t quite put my finger on it. It might just be me being overly suspicious, but I have this feeling that something unexpected might happen during this affair.”

”You mean to say...” Zeng Jialiang was slightly taken aback.

Jin Haorang shook his head, ”I can’t be certain, just harboring some doubts!”

Zeng Jialiang laughed, ”It’s always right to be cautious, but Brother Jin might be a tad too careful. With the power we two possess, we could conquer the world, so how could we fear some dying old man?”

Jin Haorang nodded, ”That’s true, yet given that the nobility of Jing Country are all mobilized, we too must act first. Otherwise, losing the initiative could mean all our efforts come to naught.”

”Heh! As if I’d worry about that bunch of good-for-nothings?” Zeng Jialiang’s face showed a hint of scorn.

Jin Haorang laughed, ”Those guys who only brag and indulge in pleasures surely don’t count. But this time the matter is of great importance. I’ve heard... it seems the Commandery Princess herself has taken action!”

The words ”Commandery Princess” seemed to carry a magical power. Zeng Jialiang, who had been nonchalant, turned pale upon hearing them, and then slowly exhaled.

”So Baili Shaoguang, that wretched woman, has made a move?”

Jin Haorang nodded.

”This is a bit tricky now!” Zeng Jialiang muttered to himself, suddenly becoming fierce, ”It seems the only thing we can do now is to find Xing Yuhe before that damn woman!”

With a wave of his hand, a mass of black qi appeared in front of Zeng Jialiang. After whispering a few words to it,

The black qi then disappeared without a trace.

Following this, the speed of the palanquin carried by the attendants sharply increased, hurrying towards a distant place at a rapid pace.

”Come, come, come, let’s continue drinking. Even if Baili Shaoguang, that woman, really shows up, with the two of us joining hands, could we really be scared of her?” Zeng Jialiang said with a laugh.

But these words seemed more like self-encouragement.

Jin Haorang was well aware but merely smiled and then raised his cup to continue drinking with Zeng Jialiang.

Only a trace of worry, not easily noticed by others, flashed through his eyes.

Whether it was Baili Shaoguang who was advancing straight along the great path, or Zeng Jialiang flying high in the sky, neither noticed the cold and enigmatic killing intent hidden in the darkness after they passed.

If you were to draw a large circle with a radius of ten thousand miles centered around Demon-Sealing Town, you would find that within this large circle, it’s not towns that dominate but rather a nearly boundless vast sea of forest.

The dense, thick forests almost completely cover the land, with only one road cutting through it, serving as the connection between Demon-Sealing Town and the outside world.

Even during the daytime, no sunlight can be seen in this forest that blocks out the sky and sun.

Such a forest is also referred to with utmost respect and fear by the people living nearby as the Ghost Forest.

Even if you are a True Immortal, once you enter this vast sea of forest, you will disappear without a trace and be unable to return.

It’s not just about people; even wild beasts dare not approach this forest.

And right in the center of this vast sea of forest, there stands an almost heaven-reaching colossal tree.

The tree’s bark has already aged like dragon scales, and its trunk grows in a twisted and coiling manner. At first glance, it looks as if a Tyrannosaur is crouching there.

Around the colossal tree, all the other trees bow down, as if worshipping their King.

And at that moment,

Several vines retracted from the void and then coiled at the foot of the colossal tree.

A moment later, the gigantic tree began to tremble slightly, and the rustling sounds made by its shaking branches were enough to send shivers down one’s spine.

Where the sound waves passed, all the surrounding trees trembled, causing waves to surge through the forest sea.

Then before the colossal tree, black qi filled the air and instantly condensed into a middle-aged man who emanated an air of undisputed authority.

Clad in thick wooden armor with a pair of eyes exuding a cold murderous intent, he then appeared to cry and laugh as he roared, ”That snotty-nosed old Taoist dares to kill my concubine and destroy my underlings?”

The voice was harsh and disagreeable, a mix of both male and female voices.

Where the roar reached, many trees directly exploded into smithereens.

The man then angrily said, ”I gave that snotty-nosed old man some face, by allowing this little town to exist without interference, but he’s so ungrateful. Since that’s the case, then all shall die!”

As his words fell, the trees in the forest sea bowed to either side, revealing a path, and then the branches of the colossal tree extended to form a throne.

The man sat upon it, then he cut through the forest sea, heading straight for Demon-Sealing Town in the distance.
