Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny novel Chapter 903

Chapter 903: Chapter 903: Grandpa, Spare My Life (4th Update)

By now, the shop assistant was on the verge of tears, "Shopkeeper, what I’m saying is the truth. The entire Chen Family... every single person in the Chen Family is dead!"

Spurt!

Yang Zelin, who had just taken a sip of tea and hadn’t yet swallowed it, sprayed it all over the floor. His face was a mask of shock as he asked, "What did you just say?"

The assistant swallowed hard and said with terror, "The news just came out. Overnight, from top to bottom, including the house servants and protectors, a total of three hundred and twelve people... They all suddenly died!"

Crack.

The teacup in Yang Zelin’s hand dropped to the floor and shattered, scalding tea splashing all over him.

But Yang Zelin barely noticed, staring at the assistant dumbfounded, "You... What did you just say?"

The assistant took a deep breath and tried to calm himself, "Shopkeeper, I just heard this news from the market, it’s spreading like wildfire, and it’s definitely true!"

Yang Zelin’s complexion turned from red to white, and then from white to blue.

Suddenly, he asked urgently, "Then... what about Young Master Chen Jiayu?"

The assistant shook his head, "There’s no Young Master Chen anymore. Not a single person from the Chen Family survived; they’re all dead, even the man-eating hounds they kept in the back yard were dismembered! And..."

At that, the young assistant’s face showed sheer horror.

"What’s ’and’?" Yang Zelin’s eyes were bloodshot as he asked hoarsely.

"And... all those wealthy young masters of the Capital City who were close to Young Master Chen are dead too!"

There was dead silence in the room.

Yang Zelin felt his legs shaking.

Yang Yue was standing on the side, her complexion deathly pale, every hair on her body standing on end.

At that moment, confused footsteps and loud discussions filled the streets outside.

"My God, are you serious?"

"Nonsense, my brother works at the government office; he saw it with his own eyes! He said that the entire Chen Residence’s ground was soaked with blood, and that the condition of the corpses was so dreadful that even Liu, the experienced head of our county government, was scared speechless for quite a while!"

"Hiss! So, you mean to say... the Chen Family is finished?"

"Of course they’re finished! Everyone from top to bottom is dead! How could they not be?"

"I’m telling you, the Chen Family definitely got too arrogant and offended some powerful person!"

"Tsk, tsk, that hero is just too ruthless; we’re talking about hundreds of lives!"

"Hehe, but in my opinion, not a single one of those people died undeservedly!"

"To wipe out a family overnight and then depart without a trace, such peerless elegance, it must be the work of some extraordinary master!"

These discussions firmly confirmed, the assistant’s words were no fabrication.

But the more true it was, the more frightened Yang Zelin became.

At that moment.

He suddenly remembered today’s event.

Xue An, whom he thought would never part with his silver, had indeed parted with it.

And what he had said in the house hinted at something odd now that he thought about it.

Begging to return the silver later while crying and shouting...

Yang Zelin shuddered suddenly.

Because he remembered the almost imperceptible smile on Xue An’s lips when he spoke those words.

That smile seemed to see through everything.

At this moment, Yang Zelin’s peripheral vision caught sight of the ingot of silver on the table. He was initially taken aback, but then he lunged for it.

His hands trembling, he turned the silver over to look at the engraving on its back in the light from outside.

Normally silver ingots would bear the mark of different households as a means to prevent theft.

Although it was somewhat blurred, upon closer inspection, he could still make out the small character "Chen" on the back of the ingot.

When he saw this character, Yang Zelin’s whole body shook like a sieve, and he collapsed to the ground.

Because he had understood everything.

No wonder Xue An had made that bet so confidently yesterday.

No wonder he didn’t show the slightest hint of panic.

Although Xue An repeatedly told her he did not need her help.

Chan’er insisted on not giving up.

With no other choice, Xue An let her do as she wished.

"Young master..." 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

"Hmm?"

"Now that your illness is cured, when shall we set out for the Capital City?"

"In the next couple of days!"

"Mm-hmm! Young master, once you go, you will surely top the imperial examination and show those who look down on us what for!" Chan’er said joyfully.

Xue An smiled in his heart.

Top the imperial examination? 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

What he wanted was the entire world!

"By the way, young master, didn’t the young miss from the Tang Family write a letter before the New Year, saying we could stay at her place when we get to the Capital City? I’ve already packed the letters! And I’ve heard that our old neighbor, the Tang Family, is now considered to be a major household in the capital! Hee hee, back when we were neighbors, you used to play with that young miss from the Tang Family..."

Xiao Chan’er began to chatter on and on.

Xue An, however, remained noncommittal.

Indeed, in the brief memories of this body, the Tang Family did exist.

But whether it was the young miss from the Tang Family or the so-called letter, Xue An had not the slightest interest.

The reason he was heading to the Capital City was to seek out the aura he had felt back then.

Right at that moment, the door to the room was suddenly pushed open, and Yang Zelin rushed in, gasping for breath.

"Shopkeeper Yang, you..." Chan’er was taken aback and then became very anxious as she tried to say something.

She thought Shopkeeper Yang had reneged on his word and intended to do something else.

But just then, the Shopkeeper Yang fell to his knees with a thump in front of Xue An, weeping profusely and kowtowing vigorously.

"Young Master Xue, spare my life, Grandfather Xue, spare my life!"
