Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny - Chapter 37

There were celestial beings on Green Wheat Mountain.

This was a legend that was familiar to everyone living near Green Wheat Mountain.

Yet, no one had ever seen them.

The legends gave this mountain an aura of mystery and intrigue. Tourists from all over the world were attracted to this place, and in turn, made the once poor Green Wheat Town a livelier place.

Xue An got off the tour bus with his two daughters. He looked around and found that everything in front of him was nostalgically familiar and yet, strange.

When he had left this place, it was still a backwater town. But with the passing years, it had become much more prosperous.

Restaurants and bars were lining the streets. Young men and women dressed in fashionable clothes shuttled through the town in an endless cycle.

Far in the distance, directly across the street and towering over the town, was the formidable Green Wheat Mountain. It was so high that no matter what season it was in the year, the top of the mountain remained surrounded by clouds that refused to disperse easily.

Xue An squinted his eyes for a moment.

Back when he was a young child, he had gone to explore the Green Wheat Mountain. But he did not find anything unusual.

But now, with the experience and enhanced field of vision of an immortal lord, he could see that this mountain had excellent Fengshui. There was also the vague presence of Dragon Qi surrounding it. It was obvious that this was not an ordinary place.

But this Dragon Qi… It seemed so mixed up and impure.

Xue An kept this thought in mind, then to turned to Xue Xiang and Xue Nian. “Are you girls hungry?”

The two little girls shouted out in unison, “Hungry!”

It was an adorable scene that made passers-by laugh along.

Xue An nodded. “Let’s go, Papa will take you girls to dinner first,” he said.

Since he had assumed this role of a manny, or male nanny, Xue An’s daily life had become intertwined with pots and pans.

In fact, with his cultivation, he could have fasted for a long time without any food and water at all.

But it was similar to how money could hardly buy happiness; Xue An simply enjoyed the feeling of chowing down food with his two daughters at mealtimes.

While walking down the street, Xue An looked at the fancy hotels and restaurants that had been built from scratch. He felt nostalgic and somewhat lonely as he thought about his past.

He used to play on this street.

And his own home was just around the corner of the street.

So many years have passed! He wondered what the place he used to call home would look like now. The house should be run down and collapsed by now, right?

Xue An was quietly thinking to himself. But when he finally turned the corner, he stopped in his tracks and froze.

Standing in front of him, where his old home used to be, was a magnificently luxurious hotel.

Xue An could feel his heart sinking.

“Papa, why have we stopped walking?” Xue Xiang asked. Then she looked at the hotel in front of them, taking in the luxurious views.

“Papa, are we going to eat here? Will it be very expensive!” Xue Xiang was only four years old, but she was already proving to be financially savvy.

The fact that she was so careful with their expenditure on meals and would even pinch pennies when it came to food, left Xue An with a mix of feelings. At times, he found it heartbreaking, and the other times, funny.

And of course, Xue An was not angry merely because a piece of land had been occupied.

But rather, for him, this home had a special significance. After all, it symbolized his childhood memories.

Just then, a timid voice was heard.

“You’re… Brother An?”

Xue An looked behind him and saw a young girl standing by the side of the street.

This young girl was dressed in simple clothes and she looked clean and innocent. Her face was even blushing slightly from her apparent shyness.

“You are…”

“Brother An, is it really you?” Suddenly, the young girl got excited. She took a few steps closer to him and said, “I’m Lan’er!”

“Lan’er? You are… Xue Lan?” Xue An exclaimed in mild surprise.

Xue Lan was the daughter of a distant uncle of his. When she was young, she often stuck to Xue An’s side, as though she was a tag-along. Wherever Xue An went, she would follow.

“It’s me! Brother An, you’re finally back. Many people say that you’re dead!” As Xue Lan spoke, tears were falling down her face.

“I’m here, aren’t I? I’ve not seen you for so many years, you’re already such a big girl,” Xue An said with a smile.

“These two are…” Seeing Xue Xiang and Xue Nian, Xue Lan could not help but ask.

“Hello Auntie!” said the two little girls sweetly in unison.

Xue Lan was tickled by these two little girls, who seemed to be carved out of porcelain, and said, “Oh my, such adorable little girls.”

“These are my daughters!” Xue An said.

Xue An was slightly shocked. Then with a forced smile, she said, “Brother An is already married!”

Xue An nodded. Then he pointed to that majestic-looking hotel behind him.

“What’s going on with that?”

Xue Lan’s face changed. She quickly dragged Xue An away with her.

“This can’t be easily explained with just a word or two. Come home with me first. I’m sure my father will be overjoyed when he sees you!”

Xue Lan’s house was on the edge of Green Wheat Town.

Here, it was back to the look and atmosphere of a small mountain village. The houses were lower and shabbier. The roads were muddy, making it difficult to walk.

Xue An used to frequent this place, so he was very familiar with it. And Xue Lan’s home had not changed too much over the years.

After stepping into her house, Xue Lan shouted excitedly. “Father, look who’s back?”

A tanned, dark-skinned, rough-looking man walked out of the house. He froze the very moment he caught sight of Xue An.

“Xue… An?”

At the same time, a rural-looking woman pushed the door open and walked out. She was muttering to herself. “What is going on with all this shouting and yelling?”

The moment she saw Xue An, there was a drastic change in this woman’s expression.

“It’s you?”

Xue Lan was still very excited at this point and yelled happily. “Mother, Brother An is not dead! He’s back!”

“Oh dear! Get out and go! We don’t know who Xue An is. Quickly get him to leave!” Xue Lan’s mother, Li Hongyan, was frantic.

Xue Lan was shocked. “Mother, what’s wrong?” she said.

“You horrible girl, don’t you ever listen to the things I have to say? Quickly get him to leave!” Li Hongyan’s face looked ferocious as she spoke.

At this time, Xue Lan’s father, who was Xue An’s distant uncle, Xue Guo, sighed and interrupted them. “Oh Xue An, you should not have come back here. Quickly leave before anyone else sees you. Quickly!”

Xue Lan was just about to say something in protest.

Xue An stopped her. He turned to the other two people and he said nonchalantly, “I won’t implicate you all even if I am back. But I want to ask this, what’s going on with my home?”

This question made Xue Guo and his wife turn even paler.

Li Hongyan was full of hatred and malice. “Bleh, you jinx. Just the sight of you brings us bad luck. And you’re talking about not wanting to implicate us? Just get up and go. I’ll make you regret it if you stay here any longer.”

Xue An frowned. Although they were considered his relatives, if they were brave enough to talk to him like that, then they should not blame others for courting their deaths.

Xue Lan suddenly grabbed Xue An’s hand and through her tears, she sobbed to him. “Brother An, I’ll send you off first!”

Thinking of Xue Lan, Xue An’s heart softened. To the other two, he smiled menacingly. “I hope that in the future, you won’t regret this.”

With that, Xue An followed Xue Lan and left.

Li Hongyan could finally breathe easier. She took a deep breath and said, with a dismissive tone, “He’s just an orphan who doesn’t even have a home. And he’s warning us about regret? Hah!”

Xue Guo wanted to say something but eventually stopped himself. After all, he was simply in no position to speak his mind at all in this family.

After they had stepped out, Xue Lan said sadly, “Brother An, I…”

Xue An shook his head and said with some indifference, “No need to say anything, Lan’er. Just tell me, what is going on with my own home.”

Xue Lan clenched her teeth and said, “It’s all because of Xie Hu! Three years after you were gone, the development of this place commenced. Your home is situated in the ideal location, and because of this, Xue Hu took the place by force. And now, he’s built a hotel on it.”

Xie Hu.

This name evoked a memory that Xue An had sealed deep in his memory.
