Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 898: Chapter 898: The Moon Shines Bright and Stars Are Sparse, Clouds Cease and Wind Halts (5th Update)

Xue An was taken aback and then couldn’t help but give a wry smile.

The silly girl, she really thought he was going to sell her!

Xue An stretched out his hand and lightly tapped Ye Xiaochan’s forehead.

The young girl fell into a deep sleep, probably not to wake up until daylight.

Then Xue An stood up, pushed open the door, and walked out.

Outside, the moon shined brightly, and the stars were sparse; the wind had calmed, and the clouds had stilled.

Because the night was deep, the surroundings were utterly silent, as if the entire world had fallen asleep.

A flicker of light danced in Xue An’s eyes, and then with a leap, he silently soared into the air and vanished into the vast night.

This was a very small city.

From the easternmost part of the city wall to the west, it measured no more than seven or eight miles.

But as it was located alongside a main road leading to the Capital City, this small city thrived with bustle.

Even now, in the silence of deep night, one could see dots of light scattered throughout the town.

Xue An, as if taking a leisurely stroll, moved through the dark night sky, looking down at the city below.

At last.

In the northeastern corner of the city, Xue An paused in mid-air.

In front of him was a grand manor.

Xue An’s eyes narrowed slightly as he surveyed the estate.

After a moment, he displayed a silent smile, then soared over the high wall and disappeared.

And above the main gate of this manor, the words Chen Family Mansion were inscribed boldly.

Should any local citizens be here, seeing these four characters would certainly fill them with dismay and even compel them to keep their distance.

Because within this city, the Chen Family symbolized absolute power.

No one dared to disobey the family’s commands.

Even a sneeze from a member of the Chen Family could make the small city shudder.

The Chen Family’s actions were always overbearing; anything—or anyone—they coveted had to become theirs.

Eventually, even a Chen Family servant would strut around outside, shouting loudly and behaving arrogantly.

So by now, the mere mention of the Chen Family would change the color of people’s faces in this city.

If someone inadvertently offended them or if a Chen Family member took a liking to their belongings, the best outcome would be to quickly flee the city, or else one might find that person’s body in a ditch the next day.

And as the eldest son of the Chen Family, Chen Jiayu, had been enjoying treatment akin to that of a crown prince since his youth.

At that moment.

Xue An had arrived outside the library in the rear residence, intending to enter, when suddenly he heard voices coming from inside.

He paused, then froze in his tracks, his figure merging instantaneously with the darkness. He relied solely on his keen senses to perceive everything inside.

He saw Chen Jiayu lying comfortably on a Taishi Chair, drinking and chatting with several friends.

At that moment, a young man with a dog plaster pasted on his face said fawningly, ”Young Master, I heard you’ve taken a fancy to a foreign lass?”

This band of rascally friends had few skills, but when it came to women, they were all ears.

One wealthy young master, whose family owned several silk and satin shops, said with gleaming eyes, ”Ah, you probably don’t know, but I have seen that girl together with Young Master Chen, tsk tsk...”

”How is she, really? Don’t just tsk tsk there!” another, a pock-faced fat man whose family owned a few pawnshops, said impatiently.

”Heh heh, is Xiao Red Jade from Yuxiufang beautiful?” the silk and satin wealthy young master asked with a laugh.

”Of course, she’s beautiful! Damn it, it cost me a hundred silver pieces to sleep with her last time!” the pock-faced young master said resentfully.

”Hehe, someone like Xiao Red Jade isn’t even fit to carry shoes for this girl.”

”Fuck, is she really that beautiful?” All the young masters from rich families in the room were shocked.

”Tsk, tsk, would I dare to lie in front of Young Master Chen? That little lady, tsk, tsk, I’m still amazed thinking about her now!”

”Stop with the tsking, just give us the details!”

”Hehe!” The rich heir clad in fine silk garments only continued after he had sufficiently whetted everyone’s appetite, smugly stating, ”Not to mention her features are like a painting, but this little lady is truly fair, just like a piece of white silk!”

Hisss!

All the young masters took a sharp intake of breath.
