Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 2639: Chapter 2640: An Old Friend Awaits Deep Among the Pear Blossoms

This peaceful life went on for several decades until it was disrupted by a group of powerful people who had learned of a python hidden here.

These people forcibly broke in, attempting to abduct Xiao Sha.

The elder furiously intervened, eventually driving them off, but in doing so, he caught a severe illness and passed away.

Thus marked the brief and monotonous life of this elder.

After witnessing these scenes, Xue An fell silent.

Back in the basement of the Carter Family, Xue An saw countless points in time converge here, seemingly related to a disrupted timeline, but upon arriving, he found that Si Ren had already passed.

Could it be that this path was a dead end?

Xue An fell into deep thought.

It was at this moment that a commotion suddenly arose outside the door.

The noise was so faint that most people would have ignored it, but Xue An was no ordinary person; he flew out of the room almost the instant the sound hit his ears, reaching the outside world.

And then he saw a rather peculiar sight.

The vast pear orchard he had passed by was now blooming with flowers all at once.

It should be noted that the season for pear blossoms had long passed, and just moments ago, Xue An had seen these very pear trees withered, their leaves mostly yellowed.

Yet this seemingly dying orchard was now in full bloom, the pear blossoms appearing like enormous torches, a spectacular sight indeed.

Xue An, moved in his heart, approached to find that within each pear blossom was a tiny creature.

The presence was so faint that if not for Xue An’s powerful Divine Sense, he likely wouldn’t have noticed it at all.

Upon sensing Xue An’s presence, these creatures peeked out from the pear blossoms, timidly observing him.

Meanwhile, whispers reached Xue An’s ears.

”Is it this man?”

”Oh heavens, his aura is terrifying; he won’t eat us, will he?”

Hearing these voices, Xue An smiled slightly, finally understanding the cause of the earlier commotion.

He also realized what these tiny beings, no taller than a finger, were.

They were clearly the flower spirits nurtured by these pear trees.

Yet he didn’t understand what business these pear flower spirits had with him.

Was there something they wanted to tell him?

At this moment, it seemed as though a consensus was reached among the flower spirits in the vast pear orchard, as they suddenly dispersed. Then, a flower spirit about fifty centimeters in size flew out, respectfully greeting Xue An.

”Master of the Pear Blossoms greets you, sir!”

For this small leader of the pear blossoms, Xue An smiled slightly and returned the greeting.

”May I ask if you’ve come here seeking Elder Zhai?”

Xue An’s heart stirred, realizing something, and he immediately nodded, ”Yes, I’ve come here to find him. Do you know where he is now?”

The pear blossom leader sighed lightly, ”Years ago, villains suddenly invaded here and injured Elder Zhai. Within a few years, the elder passed away!”

Xue An sighed lightly, indeed it was as he thought!

But then the leader continued, shifting the topic.

”But we were all personally planted by Elder Zhai. Despite our insignificance, we dare not forget such kindness. Thus, after his death, we used our feeble powers to preserve his body, keeping his soul from dispersing!”

”Our purpose was to await someone destined, and seeing you linger here, we dared to call out to you!”

Xue An’s heart trembled violently.

For he had not imagined this possibility.

Who could have thought that these tiny flower spirits, humble as ants, would possess such insight and courage?

To repay kindness, they did not hesitate to guard the elder’s body with their limited power.

Thus, he took a deep breath, ”Where is the elder’s body?”

”Please follow me, sir!”

With that, the pear blossom leader turned and led Xue An deeper into the orchard.

Along the way, countless flower spirits watched Xue An from a distance, yet dared not approach.

After all, they were far too weak,

so weak that they could not withstand even the slightest hint of Xue An’s power.

Xue An was well aware of this and therefore did not pay them any mind, fearing he might accidentally harm them further.

Soon.

After passing through a large section of the orchard, a small clearing appeared ahead.

In the clearing stood a towering pear tree, unlike the others in full bloom.

This tree bore only one flower.

A single, enormous pear blossom, as large as a person.

A gentle breeze stirred, causing the pear blossom to quiver.

The pear blossom leader spoke softly, ”Sir, this is where my true form resides, as for the elder’s whereabouts...”

The pear blossom leader gently gestured, and the branches of the towering tree retreated, revealing a small grave beneath.

”Because the elder’s soul and body are extremely fragile, and my own cultivation level is quite weak, the elder’s soul usually remains in a dormant state.”

As these words were spoken, several rumbling sounds came from below, as the tree withdrew its roots from the grave.

Soon after, a thin mist rose, and an elderly spirit appeared in the air.

Despite the passage of so many years and the alterations to the timeline,

Xue An immediately recognized the figure as Elder Zhai, a benefactor from his past.

At this moment, although in spirit form, Elder Zhai still wore his gray robe.

His face was filled with confusion, much like someone just waking up.

”Elder Zhai, this gentleman came here looking for you. I saw his good nature and knew he was not an evildoer, so I brought him to you.”

Upon hearing the pear blossom leader’s words, Elder Zhai slowly regained awareness.

Meanwhile, Xue An stepped forward quickly, clasping his hands toward the elder.

”Elder... Elder!”

His voice even carried a slight tremor.

Reuniting after experiencing so many worldly affairs, Xue An couldn’t help but feel a twinge of emotion.

At the same time, the elder stared intently at Xue An, and a moment later, he spoke with a tone of hesitation, ”Xiao An?”

Though softly spoken, those two words hit Xue An’s ears like a thunderclap.

For he had never anticipated the elder would call his name.

In this timeline, he should not have known him, should he?

Could it be that, like Huyue, he too retained his memories?

At this thought, Xue An immediately asked, ”Do you recognize me?”

At this point, Elder Zhai also took on a bitter expression, ”So it is you! I never imagined that we would have a day to meet again.”

Saying this, Elder Zhai raised his head to the sky, ”I was trapped in this damned world for decades, never seeing your arrival. I almost thought you had vanished for good, and that filled me with despair. But in the end, the Merciful Heaven Sovereign granted that you would still appear!”
