Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 2347: Chapter 2348: Burial (First Update)

"But..." Yue Hechang said hesitantly.

"No buts, just do as he says!" The Second Lady said sternly.

Yue Hechang’s eyes showed a hint of grief and anger, but he could only turn around helplessly and wave his hand.

"Stand the coffin upright for the burial!"

Upon hearing this, the members of the Yue Clan stirred, with many showing expressions of indignation.

Yet under the pressure of the Second Lady, they dared not say anything and had to suppress their anger and get to work.

The coffin slowly stood upright and was then lowered into the grave.

At this moment, someone in the crowd suddenly laughed and said, "Look, doesn’t this look like planting a radish?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire crowd burst into low laughter.

The Yue Clan members collectively lowered their heads, filled with shame and anger inside.

But at this point, saying anything else was useless.

Soon, the coffin was placed into the grave.

All the members of the Yue Clan knelt on the ground, watching as the coffin was gradually covered with yellow earth.

Suddenly, Yue Hechang cried out mournfully, "Family Head, go in peace!"

Then he heavily kowtowed on the ground.

The rest of the Yue Clan followed suit, kowtowing as well, making for an emotional scene.

Long Yushu turned his head to look at Sima Chongzhao beside him and slightly sneered, "Shall we make a move now?"

Sima Chongzhao laughed grimly, "Let’s wait a bit longer. After all, so many people are watching. Let them live a few more days. We’ll deal with the Yue Clan after the funeral is completely over!"

These words aligned with Long Yushu’s thoughts. He nodded slightly, "Okay, let’s leave now!"

With that, the people from the Long and Sima families simply left.

As they left, people from several other families exchanged glances, shook their heads, and then also left one after another.

Although Gu Wangya from the Gu Clan and Song Yuze from the Song Family looked at the grieving members of the Yue Clan with intention to speak, they eventually sighed and left.

After all, since the burial was complete, they had no reason to stay here.

Quickly, the crowd of onlookers dispersed completely.

Hiding behind the crowd, Ximen Hao and Pan Ruomei saw this and slipped into the void, waiting silently for the right moment.

They couldn’t possibly leave so easily; at the very least, they should bring Yue Shifang’s body back to have an explanation.

At this moment, Xue Anchong said lightly to the Second Lady and Yue Qinghuan, "Let’s go! The Patriarch has been laid to rest, you all should go back!"

Yue Junze finally couldn’t hold back and asked, "Isn’t it necessary to leave someone to guard here? After all, so many people have seen the Patriarch’s burial place. What if someone takes advantage to retaliate?"

This question focused numerous gazes on Xue An.

But unlike before, full of reverence and admiration, this time there was more coldness in their eyes.

It seemed as if they were waiting for Xue An’s answer.

In response, Xue An simply smiled faintly, "You don’t need to worry about that. Besides, no one would come here looking for trouble, even if someone does, I am here to guard!"

But despite his words, many were still uneasy.

For example, Yue Guannan, who had remained silent throughout the funeral suddenly spoke in a deep voice.

"I’ll stay as well!"

This proposal was exactly what Yue Hechang and others had hoped for, and they immediately nodded.

"Good! If Commander-in-Chief Yue can stay to guard, that would be great!"

As they spoke, they emphasized the words Commander-in-Chief, with sarcasm almost overflowing from their tone.

Xue An just responded with a calm smile, as if he hadn’t heard it at all.

"Alright! Since Miss Guan Nan is willing to stay, let her stay!"

Soon, the members of the Yue Clan followed and also left.

In the wilderness, only Xue An and Yue Guannan remained.

Yue Guannan gave Xue An a long look but said nothing, finding a sheltered spot to sit and silently keep watch.

Xue An, as if unaware of her coldness, surprisingly approached and sat down as well.

"Care for some tea?"

There was silence from opposite.

"Silence means yes!"

With that, Xue An casually tossed out a tea table, filled with various tea sets like magic.

Xue An casually picked one up, and soon, a date-red flame rose in the small furnace, and the teapot emitted a fragrant aroma.

Emerald green tea poured into white porcelain cups, creating a striking aesthetic.

Xue An pushed the teacup in front of Yue Guannan, smiling slightly, "Try it! It’s quite good!"

But Yue Guannan didn’t even glance at the teacup on the table, instead, she stared coldly at Xue An.

Xue An remained unfazed, still smiling brightly.

After a long while, Yue Guannan finally said softly, "I really want to know what kind of secret you’re hiding!"

"Oh? Why do you say that?" Xue An lightly sip his tea, chuckling.

"Simple, because you must have made some sort of deal with the Second Lady and Yue Qinghuan, otherwise they wouldn’t have cooperated with you so eagerly!"

Xue An smiled without speaking.

"But the question remains, what kind of deal was it that made them disregard the reputation of Yue Shifang and the entire Yue Clan? Or...is it that Yue Shifang isn’t really dead?"

Yue Guannan said coldly but shook her head in self-denial just after speaking.

"But that’s impossible because I’ve already confirmed that he is indeed beyond dead!"

Xue An placed down his teacup, chuckling, "Is the factual answer that important to you?"

"Of course!"

"Then drink tea and wait, because soon, all the answers will be revealed!"

Upon hearing Xue An’s words, the light in Yue Guannan’s eyes flickered, and she finally picked up the teacup in front of her, slowly sipping.

Besides the raging wind, there were no other signs of activity on this planet.

And so, Xue An and Yue Guannan silently sipped their tea.

This scene was, of course, seen by Ximen Hao and Pan Ruomei hidden in the void.

They communicated quietly using Divine Sense.

"What should we do now? This somewhat eerie woman stayed to guard as well. Should we make a move now?" Ximen Hao asked.

Pan Ruomei looked serious, "Let’s avoid being hasty. Compared to this woman, I feel this man is even more unfathomable, don’t you think?"

"Him? Just an Immortal Venerable, how powerful could he be?" Ximen Hao smirked.

But just then, they heard Xue An sigh lightly, "The wind is really making quite a racket, dispersing the fragrance of the tea!"

With that, he casually snapped his fingers.

Snap.

The wind stopped, the clouds halted, the entire world turned silent.

Ximen Hao widened his mouth.

Because the move was played out beautifully, while he could also do it, he couldn’t do it as gracefully as Xue An.

Pan Ruomei gave him a sidelong glance, "Now what?"

Ximen Hao awkwardly rubbed his chin, "I figure the task given by our superiors has no time limit, so waiting a bit doesn’t hurt! They can’t possibly guard here indefinitely, and once they leave, it’s never too late for us to move!"

"Heh!" Pan Ruomei rolled her eyes and stopped speaking.
