Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 580: Chapter 580: Though There Be Thousands of People, I Shall Go (2nd Update)

No one spoke, or it might be more accurate to say that no one dared to speak.

All of them just stared, dumbfounded.

From the beginning until now.

Xue An had consecutively slain three people, annihilated an Evil God, and shattered the Sword Heart of Bu Kongchan of the Wuwang Sect.

Such a proud record of victories was more than enough to silence any doubters.

Among all the people, Lian Yunzhi was undoubtedly the most terrified.

When she saw the Hua Clan man, whom she once mocked for having no cultivation level, slaughtering all around him,

she realized why Xue An had previously called her a frog at the bottom of a well.

It turned out… her reliance on her cultivation level and the identity given by the Mountain Sea Sect’s Inner Chambers’ legacy meant less than a joke in this man’s eyes.

Thinking of this, Lian Yunzhi’s heart was filled with endless regrets and shame.

Especially when she recalled that her younger sister had already become his disciple and that her future achievements might far exceed her own,

this made Lian Yunzhi, who had always been the darling of the heavens, feel like she was on the verge of collapse.

Meanwhile, Liu KekKe was looking at Xue An with a dazed expression.

This man’s strength had exceeded everyone’s expectations, shocking even Liu KekKe who had seen many stunning geniuses in the Central Province.

What was more crucial was… this man had no cultivation level, yet he had felled two immortals and destroyed an Evil God.

If word of this got out, it would probably cause a huge uproar.

And he seemed to also know the secret of her Mechanical Puppet.

Just who exactly was he?

Liu KekKe grew increasingly curious about Xue An.

At that moment, Bu Kongchan, pale as death, gave Xue An a fist salute, “Senior’s Sword Dao cultivation is peerless, Kongchan admits defeat! Regarding the matter of my Junior Brother’s death, Wuwang Sect will not pursue it further!”

This statement took everyone by surprise.

No one had expected this genius girl from the Wuwang Sect to concede and confess guilt.

It must be known that what she cultivated was the Sword Dao.

Within the path of the Sword Dao, once you admit defeat, you might never be able to progress further in your lifetime.

Xue An’s expression was indifferent, “This isn’t about whether your Wuwang Sect pursues the matter, but whether I decide to pursue it.”

Hearing this, Bu Kongchan’s complexion turned ashen, and she hoarsely said, “Senior couldn’t possibly want to be at odds with our Wuwang Sect until the end, could he?”

Xue An smiled slightly, not responding to her question, but instead said faintly, “Do you know why your Sword Heart was completely shattered?”

On hearing this, Bu Kongchan’s body trembled, and a flicker of hope emerged in her dull eyes.

“Senior…”

Xue An spoke calmly, “Because you were too proud!”

This sentence shocked Bu Kongchan so much that she nearly fell from mid-air to the ground.

“Just a hundred years to reach immortality is certainly something to be proud of, but it’s unfortunate that your cultivation went too smoothly. You thought your Sword Heart was clear, but in reality, it was like a delicate flower grown in a greenhouse, fragile and unable to withstand a real setback! What I’m saying… do you accept it?”

Xue An’s words sent shock waves through Bu Kongchan, causing sweat to pour out like pulp and her clothes to be soaked with cold sweat, her face full of despair.

Because she knew, everything Xue An said was true.

Just witnessing Xue An’s earth-shattering sword strike had filled Bu Kongchan with boundless despair.

Because she knew, that strike was something she could never catch up to in her lifetime.

Once this thought emerged, her already weak Sword Heart instantly shattered, leading to her current state.

“Every word Senior said is true; Disciple Kongchan is convinced!”

Bu Kongchan now regarded herself as someone of the disciple generation, her words full of respect, then she said despondently.

“Bu Kongchan will now return to the Wuwang Sect and inform my master that we must not infringe upon the Hua Clan in the slightest, then I shall enter the cave myself and never reemerge into the world!”

Having said this, Bu Kongchan turned to leave.

Xue An said indifferently, “You intend to give up just like that?”

Bu Kongchan’s body shook, and she whirled around, “Senior…”

“The path of the Sword Dao is full of hardships and dangers, but it boils down to maintaining a pure sword heart, paired with the conviction that even if faced by millions, I shall forge ahead.”

“Your sword heart is now shattered, but there can be no construction without destruction! If you can reforge your sword heart, your future will far surpass your past!”

After hearing Xue An’s speech, Bu Kongchan’s eyes lost focus as she murmured to herself.

“Even if faced by millions, I shall forge ahead… So that’s how it is, so that’s how it is… I see it now!”

With these three realizations, Bu Kongchan’s body trembled.

An extremely faint Sword Intent began to rise from her wholly dejected aura.

Though this Sword Intent was weak, it was unyieldingly clear and profound—entirely different from the flashy but insubstantial Sword Intent she had before.

Seeing this, Xue An couldn’t help but nod slightly, a look of appreciation flashing in his eyes.

Bu Kongchan’s talent in the Sword Dao was truly astonishing. She managed to recondense her sword heart simply from a few words.

Although it was very weak now, given time, she would definitely surpass her former self.

By then, Bu Kongchan had regained her composure, immediately falling to the ground and respectfully kneeling.

“Disciple Bu Kongchan thanks the senior for granting me a new lease on life!”

Xue An shook his head, “I helped you only because your aura is pure and you have not disgraced the Hua Clan. I hope you will continue to conduct yourself well! Understood?”

Bu Kongchan’s expression turned solemn, “Senior, rest assured, if anyone dares to dishonor the Hua Clan in the future, I will be the first to slay them!”

Xue An nodded, “Alright, go now!”

Bu Kongchan respectfully kowtowed once more before standing up and walking away.

Unlike the grandeur of her arrival on swordback, Bu Kongchan departed on foot, emanating a pure and simple aura, with not a hint of arrogance in her eyes anymore.

What remained was a heart of unspoiled innocence.

This transformation, akin to rebirth, would be infinitely beneficial for her future.

She also upheld her promise to Xue An from beginning to end, protecting the Hua Clan even after she became the Sect Master of the Wuwang Sect.

With Bu Kongchan gone, the remaining cultivators looked at each other and prepared to slip away quietly.

No one dared to harbor any greed for the True Immortal Relics now.

But just then, a convoy rushed down the road in the distance.

The leader was none other than Lian Yuanhua.

Following him were all the elders of the Feiyan Fortress.

The second young miss, Lian Yunting, and the third young miss, Lian Yunluo, were also in the troop.

In the blink of an eye, these people charged forward to their midst.

Lian Yuanhua rode in on the Tiger Leopard Beast, and the convoy slowly came to a stop.

Then he looked up, somewhat confused as he gazed at his eldest daughter, whom he had always been proud of.

“Yunzhi, I just saw Bu Kongchan of the Wuwang Sect on the way here. Why did she leave on foot? And why did she not speak a word, just smiling, when asked anything?”

They had encountered Bu Kongchan on their way here.

Lian Yuanhua recognized her as the talented young girl from the Wuwang Sect and quickly stopped his mount to greet her.

But Bu Kongchan just kept smiling and saying nothing in response to any of his questions, then floated away.

This naturally left Lian Yuanhua full of bewilderment.

Meanwhile, Lian Yunzhi’s face was as white as a sheet, and she gently shook her head, “Father, say no more, let’s go!”
