Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 696: Chapter 696: This is the Reward You Deserve (Second Update)

Actually, even before Xue An gave the order, the two little girls had already eagerly picked up a piece and put it in their mouths.

“Is it good?” An Yan asked.

The two little girls were beyond the point of speaking, managing only to nod repeatedly.

An Yan also picked up a piece and tried it.

Upon entering the mouth, there was a very tender yet resilient texture, coated with a thickened sauce that was incredibly fragrant and refreshingly sweet.

But after just a couple of chews, the Dragon Liver suddenly melted away, and then was rapidly absorbed by the body.

An Yan felt a significant increase in her strength, and her Cultivation Level also began to stir.

However, since An Yan’s Cultivation Level had already reached the critical value of the Seal, she couldn’t make any progress at all.

Xue An naturally noticed this and his expression gradually turned cold.

“Honey, have a bite!” An Yan, clearly seeing that something was amiss with Xue An and guessing the reason behind it, quickly changed the subject.

Xue An shook his head with a smile and said, “I’ve had my fill of this stuff in the past, you and the kids eat it!”

Just then.

Suddenly, there was a commotion of footsteps from outside the door.

Then someone shouted, “Are you sure someone went inside here?”

“Boss, we’re absolutely certain! No mistake about it! And didn’t you smell the aroma? Clearly, the thief is inside cooking!”

“Damn it, someone dared to cause trouble in Mr. Xue’s old house, today I, Du Fan, won’t forgive myself if I don’t flay him…”

Before he could finish, Xue An had already opened the door.

Indeed.

Standing outside, rolling up their sleeves, ready to break in and catch the “thief,” was none other than Du Fan and his group of Beijiang roughnecks.

And when they saw Xue An standing behind the door, wearing a cooking apron and even holding a spatula, they were all stunned.

“Xue… Mr. Xue?” Du Fan was the first to regain his composure, his face filled with astonishment.

Xue An nodded slightly, looked Du Fan over, and said indifferently, “Sorry about what? The Cultivation Technique that you’ve been practicing?”

Upon hearing this, Du Fan trembled and then sheepishly scratched his head, “Heh, thanks to Mr. Xue, I’ve also started cultivating.”

“Oh, how’s your progress?”

This time, Du Fan didn’t even dare to look up, muttering softly, “Up until now, I haven’t felt the presence of Spiritual Energy!”

Xue An laughed, “Of course, you can’t feel it, because you simply don’t have the aptitude for cultivation!”

Hearing this, Du Fan felt the urge to cry, because he wasn’t the first person to tell him this. But coming from Xue An, it plunged Du Fan into true despair.

Not having the aptitude meant he couldn’t cultivate in the future.

Du Fan wasn’t a fool.

He could clearly see what would be most valued in the future—without a doubt, it was the cultivators with a Cultivation Level.

If he wanted to stay in his current position longer, he would need much stronger power.

Otherwise, he could very well become an outcast of the era.

So no matter how difficult it was, he still wanted to cultivate.

But the words from Xue An today mercilessly shattered his last bit of fantasy.

As Du Fan’s face turned ashen.

Xue An looked at his subordinates holding clubs behind him and asked indifferently, “How did you know something was happening in my house?”

Du Fan responded in a low voice, “Sir, it was all arranged by me, because I feared that petty thieves might disturb your old mansion, so I ordered people to watch it twenty-four hours a day. They told me someone had broken into your old mansion, and I rushed over immediately.”

“It’s possible that you returned in such a hurry that these people didn’t recognize you, which led to this mix-up. I’m really sorry!”

Du Fan explained at length.

Upon hearing this, Xue An chuckled and then suddenly asked, “During the previous chaos in the world, it was also you who arranged for people to secretly protect the Shie family, wasn’t it?”

Du Fan nodded in response, “At that time, although Chairman Qin also sent people, I always worried that their bodyguards weren’t astute enough, so I instructed a few local toughs to keep watch.”

“Even though these toughs weren’t strong fighters, they were very familiar with the local terrain and situation. Their presence could help Uncle Shie and his family through tough times.”

Xue An nodded, “You did well!”
