Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 2326: Chapter 2327: Atrocious Acts (2nd Update)

A cluster of hazy mist was driven by Xue An and infused into the forehead of a dull-looking man.

In an instant, the man trembled violently, pain reflected on his face.

Xue An immediately released his Divine Sense to help the man fuse with the mist.

Unfortunately, only lasting a moment, blood began to flow from the man’s mouth and nose, and the light in his eyes dimmed rapidly.

Xue An quickly loosened the control, and the mist floated out from the man’s forehead, returning him to a state of foolishness.

"Failed again!" Cha Wenliang said without emotion.

"But this time he held on for at least a dozen more seconds than usual!" Xue An said.

Cha Wenliang shook his head, "It’s useless. At the current fusion rate, the subject needs to last at least three minutes for any hope of success. But this pain is almost catastrophic, and ordinary soul strength simply cannot bear it!"

Xue An fell silent.

He knew what Cha Wenliang said was true.

Staring at the subject whose face still bore a foolish smile despite the blood stains on his mouth and nose, Xue An fell into contemplation.

This was the tenth day since they started the experiment.

But contrary to expectations, they seemed to be trapped in an unsolvable bottleneck.

As Cha Wenliang said, such soul-level operations were destined to be accompanied by unbearable pain.

An ordinary soul could hold on for at most half a minute, and longer durations would result in irrevocable collapse.

No matter how Xue An and Cha Wenliang altered the experimental methods, they couldn’t speed up the fusion process to within half a minute.

Without success in this experiment, they couldn’t obtain the crucial data on souls, making it impossible to create Elixir to complete the soul.

The whole experiment was a chain reaction, so despite Xue An’s impatience, he could only patiently improve the operation methods bit by bit.

But the daily repetitive failures still made him feel a bit disheartened.

Cha Wenliang seemed to notice this, and said in a deep voice, "How about taking a break!"

Xue An shook his head, "No need!"

He then looked at Cha Wenliang with curiosity, "Given your personality, it’s truly a miracle you haven’t become irritable at this point!"

Cha Wenliang laughed.

After days of interaction, the two could talk freely, so facing Xue An’s questioning, he only smiled.

"In your eyes, am I just a capricious tyrant?"

"Aren’t you?"

"Haha, what I hate is meaningless hypocrisy, but I never get angry at failures in research, because no success is ever not built on countless failures!"

"Being able to fail at least proves we are moving towards success."

Looking at the glowing eyes of Cha Wenliang, Xue An suddenly felt the previous bit of discouragement disappear.

"Shall we continue?"

"Continue!"

But when the two prepared to continue the experiment, they found that all the subjects were used up.

Of course, "used up" here doesn’t mean that these people with congenital soul deficiencies were dead.

It simply meant they had all undergone the experiment once, proving they couldn’t withstand fusion for more than half a minute, making further testing a waste of time.

Cha Wenliang furrowed his brows, "What’s going on? Didn’t Ao Shu say she could solve the subject problem? Why was there a supply cut?"

Xue An chuckled bitterly, "Maybe we conducted the experiments too quickly!"

Cha Wenliang fell silent.

Indeed!

Because of Xue An’s peak-level Divine Sense control, their experiment speed was astonishing.

Completing dozens effortlessly every day.

At such a terrifying consumption rate, it was reasonable for the subject supply to be cut.

"No way, I need to find Ao Shu, wasting time like this is not an option."

Just as Cha Wenliang got up to find his disciple, Ao Shu’s voice came from outside.

"Master, no need to search, I’m already here!"

With that, Ao Shu walked into the room, fatigue written all over her face.

"How is it? Are there any fresh subjects?" Cha Wenliang immediately asked.

Ao Shu smiled, "I went personally, how could I return empty-handed!"

With that, several women filed in behind her.

These women wore ragged clothes, appeared sluggish, and their eyes were full of terror. Especially upon seeing Xue An and Cha Wenliang, they trembled like frightened little beasts.

"Don’t be afraid, they are not bad people!" Ao Shu said gently.

Hearing her reassurance, the women gradually stopped trembling.

"Are these the subjects you brought? Just these few?" Cha Wenliang asked, frowning.

Ao Shu nodded, "Only these few this time, because I happened to encounter them on the way and brought them back!"

Just then, Xue An suddenly stepped forward and softly said, "Don’t be afraid, I won’t harm you!"

Saying this, he reached out and grabbed a woman’s arm, pulling up the sleeve.

The woman screamed repeatedly in fear, murmuring, "No... don’t hit!"

Seeing the skin under the sleeve, Xue An’s eyes burned with raging anger.

Because on that skinny arm, the scars crisscrossed everywhere.

Some were new, some old, layered together, forming horrifying scars, even obscuring the skin.

Just then, An Yan also walked in, his face cold as he said, "All these girls have the same injuries!"

Xue An took a deep breath, "Who did it?"

Ao Shu said, "A gang not far from here!"

"And the outcome?" Xue An asked in a deep voice.

Ao Shu licked her lips, "They are all dead!"

An Yan added, "Yes, after rescuing these poor girls, those bastards were all killed by Ao Shu and me!"

"Good! Well done!"

Cha Wenliang sighed regretfully, "You should have brought back the souls of those guys. They would have been excellent materials!"

Ao Shu awkwardly scratched her head, "Sorry, Master, I was too angry at the time and didn’t think about it before destroying all the bastards’ souls!"

"Indeed, letting those who commit such outrageous deeds live on is an insult to this world!" An Yan added.

Xue An smiled, "Well, dead is dead! The key now is to heal these girls’ injuries and then repair their souls!"

Saying this, the three turned to Cha Wenliang.

Cha Wenliang laughed, "It’s easy! Disciple, fetch my Golden Needle!"

"Yes!" Ao Shu immediately went excitedly.
