Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 792: Chapter 792: Unsolvable Predicament (Third Update)

Originally, Xue An made it clear outside of Profound Thunder City that three months later, Xue Liuli should come to Wandan City to find him.

Unexpectedly, she didn’t come herself but sent a personal sword servant instead.

Jian Qi revealed a bitter smile upon hearing this, “The young mistress is currently entangled in trivial matters and truly couldn’t come in person, hence she sent me to come!”

“Oh? Entangled in trivial matters? So, where is she now?”

Jian Qi took a deep breath, “She’s at Great Dream Mountain, and the young mistress ordered me to lead you there personally.”

Back in Profound Thunder City, Xue Liuli said that three months later the legacy of the Great Dream Sword Immortal would open.

Now, calculating the time, it should be about right.

But what trivial matters could she be entangled with on Great Dream Mountain?

Although Xue An had some questions, he didn’t voice them, simply nodding slightly, “Very well! We shall set out tomorrow!”

The news of Xue An’s departure spread quickly.

The many elders of the Elixir Dao Association rushed over, wanting to persuade Xue An to stay a few more days.

But with Xue An determined to leave, these people had no choice but to lead the many pill masters who heard the news to send Xue An and his party off for more than a hundred miles.

“We wish you a smooth journey and an early return,” the elders of the Alchemy Dao all bowed and paid their respects in unison.

And Xiaodan Cheng, who decided to stay behind, was even more reluctant to part.

Xue An smiled, “Alright, everyone go back! My trip is merely to join in the excitement; I’ll return before long!”

Jian Qi watched this scene with some surprise at her side.

She hadn’t expected this Xue An would have such high prestige that a simple departure would bring so many people to see him off.

Perhaps… the crisis the young mistress currently faces could indeed be resolved by him.

This thought surfaced in Jian Qi’s mind, but she immediately shook her head in self-mockery.

Although this person’s cultivation level should be quite good, and he is a very rare Heavenly Rank Pill Master, compared to that person, he still falls far short.

With this thought, Jian Qi couldn’t help but sigh, the worry in her eyes deepening.

Finally.

The people seeing him off left.

Xue An boarded the crane-drawn phoenix carriage, with Jian Qi holding the reins; the carriage ascended into the air and flew towards the horizon.

Wandan City is located in the northwest of the Central Region.

And Great Dream Mountain is in the southeast of the Central Region.

Thus, this journey was far more than ten thousand miles; it virtually spanned the entire Central Region.

But fortunately, the crane-drawn phoenix carriage was very effective, and when passing through bustling cities, Xue An would have it land, leading his family to stroll around each one.

So the journey did not feel particularly arduous.

Finally.

After traveling for more than half a month.

They stepped into the territory of the southeast of the Central Region.

The customs here were entirely different from those in the northwest.

Around, high mountains and dense forests dominated, home to various fierce beasts and poisonous insects, along with very barbaric aboriginals living within the jungle.

These aboriginals fed on the flesh and blood of savage beasts and were extremely ferocious.

Even ordinary Golden Immortals dared not enter alone.

Yet still, from time to time, one could see large cities situated amongst the dense forests.

After a few more days of travel.

A towering mountain that reached up to the heavens loomed in sight.

This mountain was so massive that most of its body was hidden within the clouds of the sky.

“Lord Xue, this is Great Dream Mountain!” Jian Qi explained.

Xue An nodded slightly.

Although he had seen the mountain from afar, reaching its base still took up half a day’s travel.

It was only when they got closer that the sheer size of the mountain could be truly appreciated.

It occupied almost half of their entire field of view.

At the foot of Great Dream Mountain, a towering city stood firm.

Three large characters were inscribed above the city gate.

Jile City.

Xue An had also heard about it from Jian Qi on the way here.

This Great Dream Mountain was very close to one of the Three Heavens Sect’s divisions, Jile Hall.

And at the foot of the mountain lay Jile City, which served as the mundane residence of Jile Hall.

The group stepped into the city.

All around were shops and bustling commerce; even the women on the streets were dressed in revealing, light clothes. There were even buildings of pleasure that welcomed customers in broad daylight.

In short, the city was awash in lavish, indulgent scenes straight out of a dream.

Jian Qi led the way, swiftly arriving at an exquisitely decorated inn.

And Xue Liuli was staying in a small building behind the inn.

When Xue An stepped into this small building,

Xue Liuli, who had been waiting, stepped forward with a respectful salute.

“I have seen the lord!”

Xue An was slightly taken aback.

Because he hadn’t seen her for several months, Xue Liuli looked much more haggard, her eyes filled with exhaustion as if weighed down by many concerns.

“Rise,” he said.

“Yes!” Xue Liuli stood up, her voice tinged with regret, “My lord, I was entangled with trivial matters and really could not leave to meet you. I truly apologize!”

Xue An was noncommittal, “When will the legacy of the Big Dream Sword Sovereign be opened as you mentioned?”

“Soon, it should be in the next three to five days.”

Xue An nodded, then suddenly asked, “Have the people from Blood Web Mountain come yet?”

Xue Liuli shook her head, “No news of them. People from Blood Web Mountain always carry themselves with pride and rarely arrive early.”

After a brief exchange, Xue Liuli personally led Xue An and his companions to a simple and clean courtyard to settle in.

Once everything was taken care of,

Xue Liuli returned to her small building.

It was then Jian Qi couldn’t help but ask, “Miss, can this person really solve your current dilemma? You must know that the person is…”

Xue Liuli shook her head, “If he can’t, then I fear there really is no one else in this world who can!”

Jian Qi hesitated with more to say but eventually sighed softly, feeling helpless, and withdrew.

When the room quieted down, Xue Liuli stared blankly out the window, her heart in turmoil, unsure of her emotions.

As Jian Qi had said,

the predicament she faced seemed almost unsolvable.

And all of this stemmed from that battle in Profound Thunder City.

Ever since witnessing Xue An’s earthshattering sword in Profound Thunder City, and having received his guidance through the eight characters: “Stubbornness is easily broken; the flow of water is hard to sever,” Xue Liuli had fallen into deep contemplation of her own path in the Sword Dao.

But because of this, Xue Liuli, who had always been unmatched in her murderous intent in the Sword Dao, suddenly lost her sharpness.

This development greatly displeased her sect.

At that time,

Xue Liuli’s junior sister, as if with divine assistance, saw a sudden surge in her cultivation level, even surpassing Xue Liuli.

This made Xue Liuli’s situation extremely awkward.

If it were just that, it might have been bearable.

But what Xue Liuli did not expect was that her sect, which she had always taken pride in, could be so heartless in its actions.

She was merely caught in a brief spell of confusion.

They believed she had gone astray, her cultivation level had plummeted, and there was no hope of recovery.

Thus, her sect’s attitude towards her underwent a complete one-hundred-and-eighty-degree turn.
