Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny novel Chapter 720

Chapter 720: Chapter 720: Water Sacrifice Ceremony – Taking Action Tonight (3rd Update)

Croliya waved her hand, and the team came to an instant halt, then the guards behind her immediately rushed up, forming a semi-circle surrounding Ah Tu and Xue An with unfriendly stares.

Ah Tu’s heart sank, and then he looked toward Xue An.

If Xue An gave the word, he would immediately take action.

Ah Tu was very clear that he did not follow the adult to Silver City for a leisurely visit.

If the adult had wiped out the nobles in Black Iron City, how could Silver City let bygones be bygones?

Therefore, entering here was akin to stepping into a dragon’s den and a tiger’s lair.

Yet, Ah Tu felt not the slightest fear.

After all, his life had been given by the adult.

Now that his little sister was in the adult’s magical artifact, without any concerns behind him, what was there to fear?

But Xue An just smiled faintly, then gestured to Ah Tu with a gentle shake of his head, signaling him not to act rashly.

At this moment, Croliya spurred her horse forward and ignored Xue An beside her, instead focusing her attention on Ah Tu.

“Young samurai, what is your name?” Croliya asked condescendingly.

Ah Tu, who had thought these people were going to harm him, was taken aback by the question, then he responded in a deep voice, “My name is Ah Tu! Who are you? Why have you surrounded us?”

One of the guards behind Croliya spoke angrily, “Impudence! How dare you speak to the Holy Maiden like that?”

Croliya waved her hand, signaling her subordinates to be silent, and then she murmured softly, “Ah Tu… Hehe, aren’t you a man of Silver City?”

“I am not!”

“I admire your talent, would you be willing to join my guards?” Croliya asked with a smile.

Hearing this, many around had their eyes wide with shock.

To know that joining Silver City itself was extremely difficult, and to be able to join the guards of the Holy Maiden was even more a stroke of luck that was like a leap to the heavens.

Who knows how many people were turning green with envy at this moment.

But Ah Tu shook his head lightly, “I am not willing!”

What?

The crowd thought they had misheard.

Even Croliya herself was slightly taken aback, “Why? You should know that by joining my guards, you could not only take part in the Water Festival ceremony, but also have more opportunities for development!”

Hearing Croliya still trying to persuade him, the envy of the people around grew even stronger.

Yet, Ah Tu still shook his head, “I am not willing, simply because I want to continue following my adult!”

Adult?

Croliya then looked over to Xue An, who was standing aside, and frowned.

In her perception, this man was unremarkable, not even having unlocked the most basic of innate talents, which was why she had initially overlooked Xue An.

Croliya was known as the Holy Maiden, firstly because she was the number one handmaid under the City Lord of Silver City.

Secondly, it was because of her unique talent.

She could sense what kind of talent the other party had unlocked.

This ability was somewhat terrifying.

Because before confronting an opponent, you already had the upper hand, naturally leading to an advantageous position in any situation.

But aside from this talent, Croliya had no other combat abilities, making her most suited for a supportive role.

This was also why the City Lord of Silver City valued her so highly.

She had been passing by on the street just now, when she suddenly felt a powerful innate talent from someone among the pedestrians, which led her to approach on horseback, hoping to recruit the individual. However, she had not expected Ah Tu to refuse to join her. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

Then, very unwillingly, he took out two exquisitely crafted badges and handed them over with a glowering face. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

Ah Tu stood in his place, holding the two badges in his hand, and said somewhat puzzled, “My Lord, what does this woman mean?”

Xue An smiled, “This woman is very intelligent, and she can see through the talents you possess, so naturally, she would want to recruit you to her side!”

“Shall we go tomorrow?”

Xue An watched Croliya’s retreating figure and said indifferently, “Go, of course we should go!”

Meanwhile.

After escorting Croliya back to the holy tower, Xiong Hai returned to the Xiong Family with a gloomy face.

In Silver City, the Xiong Family was also considered a powerful clan, or else he wouldn’t have become Croliya’s personal Guard Commander.

“Father!” Xiong Hai said respectfully.

The Family Head of the Xiong Family was the middle-aged man who had been at the Silver Council earlier that day.

He nodded, “What did you find on your patrol today?”

Xiong Hai gritted his teeth, “Father, today Holy Maiden encountered a young man on the street and repeatedly invited him to join my guard!”

“Oh?” Xiong Xi’s eyebrows furrowed upon hearing this, “A young man?”

“Right!”

“The Holy Maiden can sense others’ talents, so this young man must be out of the ordinary!”

At that moment, Xiong Hai’s face darkened as he stepped forward and said in a low voice, “Father, this young man is not from this city, and since his talents are strong, perhaps we should…”

Xiong Xi thought for a moment, then nodded, “Your brother Xiong Lei died in Black Iron City, and I have a premonition that there will be great upheaval. Now any increase in strength is essential!”

“So father means…”

“Act tonight!”

“Understood!”
