Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 432: Chapter 432: One Man’s Pressure, Subduing a Nation (Fifth Update)
 

Xue An found An Yan, ready to take her away.

However, before leaving, Xue An left a sum of wealth for Herrera’s family that wasn’t too abundant but was definitely enough for their whole family to live on.

Herrera and the Salonina siblings were reluctant to part ways.

Especially Salo, who, with tears in her eyes, stepped forward and gently hugged Xue Xiang, “Xiang Xiang, thank you for the shoes you gave me!”

After speaking, they turned and ran off.

It wasn’t until they had gone far that Xiang Xiang was surprised to find an unsophisticated, seemingly cheap trinket had been added to her clothing pocket.

Although it was inexpensive, the trinket had clearly been frequently handled, as even the few decorative beads had lost their color.

Xue Xiang, though young, understood that this was a gift from Salo.

A sense of sorrow from parting suddenly rose in her young heart.

So this is what it feels like to make friends!

Therefore, to Xiang Xiang, what seemed like an insignificant trinket became a precious gift.

Xue An watched everything and then smiled at An Yan, whispering softly, “See, this is how children gradually grow up!”

On the other hand, Nikita and David watched in a daze for a while before turning and driving off.

After sending the distraught David back to the hotel,

Nikita dialed her superior’s number.

Langfero hadn’t slept; he had been waiting for Nikita’s call, so he answered it immediately when the phone rang.

“How did it go?”

“He’s gone! Do I need to check on Gonzales?”

Langfero was silent for a while, for the outcome of Gonzales was foreseeable!

“Alright, don’t bother with that idiot anymore, leave him to the people of Mexico to worry about. Did he say anything else?”

Nikita took a deep breath, her voice laced with fear, “He said that if we continue to secretly collude with these major drug lords, he would not mind performing a ‘swordsmanship show’ at the Times Building!”

“What!” Langfero let out a deafening scream like a maid who had been teased.

“Did he really say that?”

“Yes!”

“Fine! That’s it for now, wait for my call. I’ll report this immediately!”

Langfero hung up and immediately reported the situation upstairs.

Soon, a high-level video conference involving the President and intelligence chiefs kicked off.

Nikita was also part of it; she had never had contact with such high-level superiors before, so she was somewhat incoherent in her speech.

But no one cared about that; the officials listened quietly, and when they heard Xue An’s words,

some high-ranking military officers were so angry that they slammed the table, “Is this a threat to the United States of America?”

But Langfero knew the officers’ anger stemmed entirely from their powerlessness.

Could they really send an aircraft carrier to deal with a person who leaves no trace? That would be a joke.

So all they could do was bang the table.

Still, some discordant voices emerged.

For instance, the newly appointed Secretary of State, a female reporter who had recently risen to prominence, laughed dismissively, “I don’t understand what you’re all afraid of. Even if he goes to perform swordsmanship, what can happen?”

Hearing this, Langfero looked at the smug Secretary of State as if she were a fool. Before he could speak,

a higher-ranking official scolded, “You brainless, ignorant fool, do you even know what he means by a ‘swordsmanship show’?”

“What could it mean? Nothing but an ancient witchcraft from the East!” The woman was still defiant.

“Heh, ancient witchcraft? The fall of the Holy Nation of Light in Europe not long ago, the sword rain in the City of Sin before that—these have become witchcraft in your mouth? Those are terrifying martial forces capable of annihilating a city!”

Upon hearing these words, the woman’s mouth dropped open in disbelief.

The president then suddenly said, “Alright, the main issue now is how to deal with this matter! I propose that we try not to meddle in the affairs of M-country from now on.”

“Seconded!”

“Seconded!”

Nikita looked at these people making their positions known, a ridiculous thought suddenly rising in her heart.

These high and mighty figures… now they were all bowing their noble heads under the pressure of one person.

For M-country, the death of Gonzales was a monumental event.

And his downfall came without any warning signs.

Although they were long accustomed to the ceaseless gang conflicts, Gonzales’s actions over the years were indeed too atrocious.

Therefore, his death was considered a fortunate event by many.

But there were still many who held a pessimistic view.

Because in their opinion, this was nothing more than a game of swapping flags on the city walls.

If one Gonzales died, a second Gonzales would appear.

It might even become more brutal and darker.

This was a very valid point of view.

But this time, it failed to hold true.

Because the one who took over Gonzales’s turf had surprisingly become moderate, and had even made many changes.

While still a cruel drug lord, he had at least become less violent in many ways.

This transformation left many people astonished.

Could it be that these bloodthirsty drug lords had suddenly changed their nature?

But only the drug lords themselves understood what had happened.

Since the annihilation of Gonzales was so brutal, all information was blocked; outsiders had no clue.

Only they knew what had occurred.

Especially those who heard about Gonzales’s autopsy report, they felt a chill deep in their hearts.

Every bone in the body broken, all the tendons removed, eyes gouged out…

Even these devils were left speechless and trembling upon hearing about these methods.

Moreover, they found these methods eerily familiar, as if they were… Gonzales’s favorite ones in the past.

This realization made those who had taken over Gonzales’s assets adopt a more civilized demeanor.

For no one knew whether the actions they inflicted on others would one day be revisited upon themselves.

Ancient Dian Kingdom of Huaxia.

Miao Immortal Valley.

This was a place that could truly be regarded as a secluded paradise, cut off from the rest of the world.

Those living within it were all Gu-natives and members of the Miao Immortal Sect.

At this moment.

The leader of the Miao Immortal Sect, that Immortal of the insect Gu, Lu Xia, was cultivating within the Insect Immortal Cave.

Ever since the battle in Xiangjiang, Lu Xia had retreated into the cave immediately upon returning to Miao Immortal Valley and had not emerged since.

“Master! Have something to eat!” Ah Fei said softly, carrying food.

The sect of the insect Gu was different from other cultivation factions; no matter the level of cultivation, they still needed to eat.

Even if you don’t eat, the insect Gu that reside within you require the nourishment of cooked food!
