Chapter 256: Peerless Young Master
As soon as Blood Shadow and Dark Moon Fairy entered Zhongyi City, they were stopped by a strong and powerful man. The man was tall, muscular, with a face full of flesh, and looked ferocious.
He stood in front of the two men, like a small mountain, blocking their way.
He crossed his arms over his chest and said in a deep voice: "Master of the Blood Sect! Master of the Dark Moon Pavilion! Our young master invites you two to go to the Wushuang Sect!" His voice was as loud as a bell, making people's ears buzz.
Blood Shadow and Dark Moon Fairy exchanged a glance, both of them somewhat puzzled. They had just entered Zhongyi City and had not had time to catch their breath, how did Master Wushuang already know about this? Could it be that Master Wushuang had planted spies in Nanyi City? Thinking of this, the two of them could not help but become alert.
Dark Moon Enchantress looked at the big man with a wry smile and said, "Oh? Your Master Wushuang is really well-informed! Brother Bloodshadow and I were just passing by here, how did we alarm your Master Wushuang?" There was a hint of teasing in her tone, and she was obviously dissatisfied with Master Wushuang's behavior.
The big man showed a trace of embarrassment on his face when he heard that, but he still said with a stiff upper lip: "The names of the two heroes are very famous in Zhongyi City! Everyone in the world knows your names!" As he spoke, he bowed to Blood Shadow and Dark Moon Enchantress with a very respectful attitude.
Hearing this, Dark Moon Fairy's mouth slightly raised, and a hint of pride flashed in her eyes. Although she said disdainfully, she was still very happy in her heart.
After all, being recognized and respected by others is an honor for any person in the martial arts world. However, Xueying looked indifferent, as if he didn't care about the false reputation.
Blood Shadow and Dark Moon Enchantress followed the big man to the Wushuang Gate. As soon as they entered the gate, they saw a majestic and magnificent mansion. In front of the gate, there were two huge stone lions, which were lifelike, demonstrating the momentum of the Wushuang Gate.
After entering the Wushuang Gate, Blood Shadow and Dark Moon Enchantress followed the big man to a courtyard, where they saw a graceful and imposing man standing there. He was Young Master Wushuang.
The Wushuang Master was dressed in white, with a handsome face, sharp eyebrows and bright eyes. There was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, giving people a gentle and kind feeling. He looked at them with a smile. His eyes revealed a kind of curiosity and appreciation.
Master Wushuang smiled and greeted them, inviting them to take a seat. "You two are really famous. After meeting you today, I can see that your reputation is well-deserved." Master Wushuang said.
"Mr. Wushuang, thank you for your praise." Xueying replied calmly.
"I wonder why Master Wushuang wants to see us?" Dark Moon Fairy looked at Master Wushuang calmly and asked. Her voice was cold and low, with a hint of vigilance.
Young Master Wushuang smiled slightly, with a hint of curiosity in his eyes: "I just wanted to see what the leader of a killer sect that is feared by everyone in the world looks like. Now that I have seen him, I have fulfilled my wish." His tone was relaxed, but his eyes never left the two of them.
Blood Shadow and Dark Moon Fairy exchanged a glance, secretly alert in their hearts. Although the peerless young master in front of them looked gentle and refined, the aura emanating from him made people feel an invisible pressure. They knew that this peerless young master was definitely not a simple person.
"Since Master Wushuang has seen us, we should leave too." Xueying glanced at Master Wushuang and said lightly. His voice was calm and firm, revealing a sense of determination.
Master Wushuang was slightly stunned, as if he didn't expect Xueying to leave so quickly. He slowly stood up, still smiling: "Are you in such a hurry to leave? I have prepared some wine and food, why don't you stay and have a drink together?" As he spoke, he gestured to the maid next to him.
Two maids came forward with wine and food and placed them on the table. Master Wushuang personally filled the glasses for the two of them, then raised his glasses and said to Blood Shadow and Dark Moon Fairy, "Please, both of you!"
The expressions of Blood Shadow and Dark Moon Fairy changed slightly, and they realized that this might be a Hongmen Banquet.
But facing the invitation of Master Wushuang, they couldn't refuse it directly. After all, they didn't know where this Master Wushuang came from.
What's more, if you offend Master Wushuang easily on his territory, the consequences will be disastrous.
After hesitating for a moment, Blood Shadow finally picked up the wine glass and drank it all. Dark Moon Fairy frowned slightly, stared at Master Wushuang for a while, and finally picked up the wine glass and took a sip.
Xueying said straight to the point: "Master Wushuang, we drank this wine too. Just tell me what's the matter!"
Young Master Wushuang shook his head slightly, motioned the maid beside him to pour more wine for the two, and said slowly: "The martial arts world has been in turmoil recently. I heard that you two are highly skilled in martial arts, so I specially invited you to discuss important matters with me."
Dark Moon Enchantress sneered: "Young Master, you are well-informed, but what does the affairs of the martial arts world have to do with us?" Her voice was cold and ruthless, as if she was indifferent to everything.
Master Wushuang smiled slightly, not caring about Dark Moon Fairy's attitude. He looked at Blood Shadow, a hint of deep meaning flashed in his eyes, and said, "Master Blood Sect, don't you want to rid the world of evil?"
Xueying was silent for a moment, with a trace of struggle in his eyes, but he finally nodded, indicating that he was willing to listen.
The corners of Master Wushuang's mouth slightly raised, and he continued, "Recently, some mysterious forces have appeared in the martial arts world. They act ruthlessly and cruelly. They are best at using poison, and many innocent people have been killed. I would like to ask the two of you to help me eradicate these evil forces together and restore peace to the martial arts world."
Dark Moon Fairy frowned and asked, "Who are these forces? Why do they want our help?"
Master Wushuang explained, "These forces are unknown and act in secret, so we know very little about them. But according to my investigation, they seem to be looking for something important, which may bring great disaster to the entire martial arts world. And you two are extraordinary and are the key figures to solve this matter."
Blood Shadow and Dark Moon Fairy looked at each other and thought to themselves. Although they had some doubts about what Master Wushuang said, they were not completely indifferent to this kind of dispute in the martial arts world. Perhaps this was also a good opportunity to understand the opponent.
Finally, Xueying agreed: "Okay, in that case, we will trust you for now. But if you find that there is something fishy going on, don't blame us for being rude."
Young Master Wushuang smiled and nodded, saying, "Don't worry, I will never let you down. Once the matter is resolved, I will reward you handsomely." As he spoke, he raised his glass and toasted the two of them.
Blood Shadow and Dark Moon Fairy also picked up their glasses and drank them all. This banquet kicked off a prelude to a turbulent martial arts world...
