Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny
Chapter 1359 - 1356: Two Great Clans (4th Update)

Chapter 1359: Chapter 1356: Two Great Clans (4th Update)

Deep within the ghost realm, the aristocratic clans were as numerous as cattle, and noble families resembled grains of sand in a river.

Yet among them, only a scant few could truly be deemed supreme and peerless.

The Ren Family, to which this man belonged, was one such family.

The exact length of the Ren Family’s existence is untraceable, lost to the mists of history.

But to thrive and endure unstirred in such a chaotic domain for so long, even blossoming with greater prosperity—one can only imagine the incomprehensible magnitude of its power.

The man before them was none other than Ren Tianyun, a legitimate scion of the Ren Family.

The Destined Ghost Monarch was well aware of his place. Compared to such an identity, his title as Ghost Monarch was utterly insignificant—pathetic even. He wasn’t qualified to serve as a dog, let alone a peer.

Thus, when he heard of someone from the Ren Family descending upon this place, excitement surged through him uncontrollably.

If he could seize this opportunity to establish a connection with the Ren Family, he would undoubtedly rise to untold heights.

As the Destined Ghost Monarch silently envisioned his grand future, Ren Tianyun didn’t spare him even a glance. Instead, he turned toward the coldly elegant woman by his side and graced her with a faint smile. "Feiwen, having just been teleported here, are you tired?"

The woman shook her head. "Young Master Ren, no need to concern yourself with me. I’ve come here for matters concerning the Tan Family."

Wait—what did this woman just say? The Tan Family?

Upon hearing this name, the Destined Ghost Monarch, who had been brimming with enthusiasm, froze instantly.

The Tan Family was another immensely powerful aristocratic clan in the deep ghost realm, equal in strength to the Ren Family.

This revelation utterly shocked the Destined Ghost Monarch, who had assumed she was Ren Tianyun’s servant.

But shortly following his astonishment came unabashed ecstasy.

If he could simultaneously form ties with the Tan Family, the benefits to him would be immeasurable.

Yet Ren Tianyun, upon hearing Tan Feiwen’s words, allowed a subtle, indiscernible cold glint to flicker in his eyes—quickly replaced by a nod.

"Very well!"

Tan Feiwen made no comment on his reaction and raised her hand, commanding curtly, "Step forward!"

The Destined Ghost Monarch hurried forward, bowing humbly. "This lowly servant greets the Lady!"

Tan Feiwen replied impassively, "There’s no need for such stiffness. I have a question—about the so-called Cang Ming Ghost Monarch being suddenly summoned by a mysterious force and then meeting complete destruction of his soul. Is this true?"

The Destined Ghost Monarch took a deep breath and solemnly nodded. "Of course it’s true! How could this lowly servant dare fabricate such a matter?"

Tan Feiwen nodded slightly. "Good. Then tell us everything you know—every last detail without omission. Do you understand?"

"Yes!" The Destined Ghost Monarch immediately complied with utmost earnestness.

This room, the most esteemed within the City Lord’s Mansion, commanded a view of the majestic Iron Net Mountain outside its windows.

At this moment, Ren Tianyun and Tan Feiwen, newly arrived, sat by the window, sipping on the finest spiritual tea offered respectfully by the Destined Ghost Monarch. Silence enveloped them.

After an indeterminate span of time, Tan Feiwen set down her cup and spoke softly, "What’s your take on this, Young Master Ren?"

Ren Tianyun chuckled lightly. "Though the Destined Ghost Monarch’s abilities leave much to be desired, his intelligence seems strikingly reliable. If his claims are true, then the demise of the Cang Ming Ghost Monarch indeed feels unusual."

Tan Feiwen shook her head gently. "It’s not just ’unusual’—it’s highly extraordinary!"

Her gaze darkened as an unfathomably deep glimmer flickered within her eyes. "Even though the Ghost Monarchs on the outskirts of the ghost realm are hardly impressive, they are still dominant figures guarding their domains. How could someone of such caliber be summoned away so easily?"

"Could it be an Immortal King or a stronger entity?" Ren Tianyun questioned hesitantly.

Tan Feiwen shook her head. Turning to look at Iron Net Mountain outside, she said flatly, "Ever since... he established Iron Net Mountain, no Immortal King has dared trespass."

When she spoke the word "he," her tone carried an undeniable peculiarity.

Ren Tianyun, ordinarily arrogant and self-assured, glanced at Iron Net Mountain at her mention of "him." For a brief moment, his face showed an expression intertwined with infinite awe and trepidation.

This topic appeared to be taboo, best left untouched. After a brief silence, the two shifted back to discussing the Cang Ming Ghost Monarch.

"If the Destined Ghost Monarch’s report is accurate, then the summoner must possess astonishing mastery over the art of binding ghosts with Divine Talismans. Such a figure is undoubtedly a menace to our ghost realm!"

A flash of killing intent appeared across Ren Tianyun’s face as his tea cup silently dissolved into dark vapor.

Tan Feiwen remarked impassively, "Not only that—after Cang Ming was summoned away, all his clones exploded simultaneously. This underscores the summoner’s tremendous mental strength. We must investigate this thoroughly to provide our family with a satisfactory account!"

Ren Tianyun nodded. "Feiwen, when do you plan to act?"

Tan Feiwen frowned slightly, seemingly displeased by the way Ren Tianyun addressed her. Then she lowered her eyes and replied flatly.

"No matter what, the Destined Ghost Monarch did offer critical intelligence. With his grand birthday approaching, we’ll extend him this courtesy and attend his ghost jubilee. Afterward, we’ll head to the Cang Ming realm to investigate."

"Attend his ghost jubilee?" Disdain flickered across Ren Tianyun’s face. He started to object but caught her expression mid-sentence, hesitated, and refrained.

"That seems appropriate!"

Tan Feiwen returned to her chambers.

Once alone, Ren Tianyun suddenly sneered coldly.

"Extend him courtesy? You simply want him to gather his people and work for you! Playing the virtuous woman while hiding your hypocrisy—what an utter farce!"

His breathing grew heavier as he continued bitterly. "And you dare treat me with such indifference? One day, I’ll make you realize just how formidable I am!"

Of course, these venomous words were sealed using a secret technique, limited to a small area, utterly imperceptible to anyone outside.

Meanwhile, across White Bone Path, the group of travelers had entered this grand Destiny City.

Seeing the bustling splendor all around, Song Jingyue could not help but marvel.

"Wow, Master! This is even more magnificent than the capital of our realm!"

The streets were crowded, and the shops sold treasures rarely seen in the outside world.

Even living souls were openly priced in the display cases of certain stalls.

Yet judging by the expressions of the passersby, it all seemed perfectly ordinary.

Having visited Destiny City a few times before, Wen Lingcui was no longer dazzled. She spoke in a stern voice, "Don’t cause a commotion. Go to the guesthouse to settle in first!"

"Alright." Song Jingyue, despite her eagerness to explore, obeyed her master’s instruction and followed quietly toward the guest lodgings.

At that moment, Leng Boceng sidled up to her and grinned slyly. "Junior Sister, how about we go out for some fun later?"

Song Jingyue’s face remained impassive. She responded coolly, "There’s no need for that!"

With that, she walked forward without another word.

Leng Boceng’s expression darkened further, his suppressed anger barely concealed as he trailed behind.

Meanwhile, outside Destiny City, space rippled as a figure emerged from the distortion.

Although his arrival was abrupt, not a soul seemed aware. The crowds went on entirely unperturbed.

Xue An raised his head, gazed toward Iron Net Mountain in the distance, and smiled faintly. Then, without hesitation, he stepped into the bustling Destiny City.
