Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny IBWASFM

Chapter 590: Chapter 590: Huyue Joins the Game (First Update)

Laborer Lane.

In a somewhat dilapidated large courtyard.

Almost everyone was staring, dumbstruck, at Huyue who had already eaten eight bowls of shredded pork noodles and was now eating his ninth.

After a while, an old man with graying hair spoke softly, “Qing Wan, this young master you brought back, how long has it been since he last ate?”

Mu Qingwan was also somewhat astonished. “Perhaps… the Fox Clan is just better at eating!”

Only after Huyue had eaten ten large bowls of shredded pork noodles did he push the bowl away and let out a breath.

As he exhaled, many others also breathed a sigh of relief.

“Are you full?” Ah Bao asked with a pout.@@novelbin@@

“Huff, I’m tired of eating, need to rest a while!”

The crowd: “…”

Mu Qingwan shook her head and led a few elders away.

No sooner had she left than about a dozen raggedly dressed children surged forward, crowding around the table and gazing eagerly at Huyue.

Just then, Ah Bao brought another pot of noodles, and as Huyue was about to eat, he saw all these children staring in longing at the bowl, which gave him pause.

Ah Bao sighed and began to pull the children away.

“What’s this…” Huyue asked with some confusion.

Ah Bao said indifferently, “Your meal has consumed the daily ration of many people here, these kids will probably have to go hungry now.”

She then lowered her head and smiled gently, “Ah Bao sister will go buy you guys something tasty, okay?”

But the children all shook their heads in unison, “Sister Ah Bao, we’re not hungry!”

One of the older girls clung to Ah Bao’s arm. “Sister Ah Bao, my mom said we can’t let you spend any more money on us! You should be saving for your dowry!”

The youths all nodded in agreement, “Right!”

Ah Bao, feeling somewhat embarrassed, pretended to be angry. “Silly girl, what nonsense are you spouting?”

She made a gesture to pinch the little girl’s cheek, but the girl giggled and dodged away.

Watching this scene, Huyue suddenly found the bowl of shredded pork noodles before him hard to swallow.

“Cough, cough, suddenly I feel a bit full! Ah Bao, let these kids have the noodles!” Huyue said.

Ah Bao, somewhat irritated, put her hands on her hips. “Who are you calling Ah Bao? Is Ah Bao a name you can call?”

“Then what should I call you?”

“You should call me Sister Ah Bao!”

Huyue shook his head. “No wonder they want you to save for a dowry, otherwise, with you being so difficult, how could you possibly get married?”

Ah Bao’s face turned green with anger.

But Huyue just chuckled and then said to the children, “Eat quickly while it’s hot; it won’t taste good once it gets cold!”

All the children looked at Ah Bao.

Though Ah Bao was tempestuous, she was extremely kind to the children. She nodded and said, “Go eat! If it’s not enough, I’ll go cook more for you!”

The children cheered and swarmed over, neatly beginning to serve themselves noodles.

Huyue stood to one side, watching with a smile, and then asked, “Who are all these kids?”

Ah Bao’s expression grew somber. “Most of them are orphans whose parents have died.”

Huyue was taken aback.

Ah Bao continued, “Do you know why this place is called Laborer Lane? It’s because it’s inhabited by miners who toil from dawn to dusk!”

“These laborers toil in the mines from morning to night, yet they receive only a meager income, and even that comes with tremendous risks! Like these children’s parents, most were killed in accidents while mining. Even if they weren’t crushed to death, they would eventually die from sheer exhaustion!”

“Do you know why Sister Qing Wan, despite opposing the Tiger Head Gang, refuses to hand over Laborer Lane? Because she knows very well that once this lane is handed over, the already miserable lives of these laborers would be crushed under the exploitation of the Tiger Head Gang, dooming them to an Infernal Hell.”

Ah Bao spoke these harrowing words in an incredibly calm tone.

Huyue couldn’t help but fall silent upon hearing this.

“But now that Geng Hu has been smashed to death by you, the Tiger Head Gang will definitely not let this go. Sister Qing Wan may not say it, but I know she must be worried about this!” Ah Bao sighed.

Huyue cracked a slight smile, “Don’t worry, as long as I’m here, no one will dare to do anything to you!”

Upon hearing this, Ah Bao glanced at Huyue and then curled her lips skeptically, “With not even a hint of cultivation level, what can you do? When they come knocking, are you planning on performing an act of eating noodles for them?”

Huyue: “…”.

“Hey, when you speak, you sound exactly like an annoying person I know!” Huyue said.

“Hehe, thanks for the compliment!”

The two exchanged a few more verbal jabs, and then these kids finished off an entire pot of noodles.

Ah Bao went to clean up the bowls and chopsticks, while Huyue watched the still somewhat childish figure of the little girl, smiling faintly with a flicker of light in his eyes.

“Is this what it means to enter the game?”

In a very beautiful mansion located on the west side of Moonlight City.

The Gang Leader of the Tiger Head Gang, Tong Bao, sat in the main hall’s chair, toying with two huge iron balls, his face as dark as deep water while he gazed at the dozen or so stretchers laid out on the hall floor.

A pungent stench of blood lingered in the air, making people irritable.

Several bruised and battered subordinates kneeled quietly behind the stretchers like cicadas in winter.

Not a sound could be heard in the entire hall except for the grinding noise of the iron balls in Tong Bao’s hands.

Suddenly.

With a slap, Tong Bao crushed a nearby ironwood tea table into dust and then shouted angrily.

“This Mu Qingwan has gone too far!”

Everyone trembled at once, then all lowered their heads, not daring to make a sound.

Tong Bao, with a grim face, surveyed the kneeling subordinates, “Tell me, how exactly did Geng Hu die?”

“To reply to the Gang Leader, Geng Hu was smashed to death by a guy who descended out of the blue!”

“Descended out of the blue? Smashed to death?” Tong Bao repeated angrily.

“Do you take me for a three-year-old child?”

The subordinates trembled like chaff and kept kowtowing, “We dare not utter a single lie! Geng Hu was indeed smashed to death, and then that Mu Qingwan took advantage of the situation to defeat and drive us back!”

Just as Tong Bao was about to erupt, a man with a pointed mouth and monkey cheeks, resembling a weasel yet dressed like a scholar, stood up.

“Gang Leader, please calm your anger. I believe these men would certainly not dare to deceive you!”

“Yes, yes, yes! The strategist is right! How could we dare to deceive you, Gang Leader?” The subordinates hastily agreed.

Tong Bao’s face turned uglier, and he waved dismissively, “All of you get out! We’ll settle this account with you later!”

The subordinates, like pardoned convicts, hurriedly thanked him for the mercy and backed out.

When only Tong Bao and the weasel-like strategist remained in the hall, Tong Bao said with some hesitation.

“Strategist, if it’s truly a person descending from the sky, could it be a master of the Demon Race?”

Although Tong Bao himself had transformed from a Tiger Leopard, he was extremely cautious. The idea of someone descending from the sky had made him quite nervous.

The weasel-like man replied, “Gang Leader, it’s hard to say for sure! But this person’s appearance at this time must be suspicious!”

Tong Bao’s face went pale, “Then… should we not target Mu Qingwan for now?”

The weasel shook his head, “Gang Leader, this matter cannot be delayed, but there’s also no need for us to act personally!”

“Oh?”

“For example… we could hire a reliable assassin to take out Mu Qingwan!”

“And where do we find a reliable assassin?”

“Not to conceal from you, there is one available right now! And he’s staying in the Pleasure District!”
