That person laughed: “Head Shi, just wait and see. It would be easy for the eastern alliance. One wouldn’t be so sure whether it would be a fortunate or unfortunate event when the Great Luo wishes to advance into the Upper Empire. How could they succeed so easily? In the human countries, how many of these three Upper Empires remained here?”
Shi Chenglong said with shock: “What do you mean?”
“What is the meaning? You will know in time, ha ha ha…” After he had finished his speech, he didn’t care of Shi Chenglong’s doubts and walked back into the inn.
Feeling disappointed and at a loss, Shi Chenglong felt even more confused. This person seemed to speak of random bluffing words. Yet, from time to time, he mentioned some meaningful words and made him believe.
…
The instant Shi Chenglong walked away from the balcony. On top of it, a golden figure suddenly scrambled out. On its little furry face, it revealed a thoughtful expression. Then, it rolled its eyes: “No, I must inform Boss Wushuang of this news.”
Indeed, this little guy was Bao Bao. Initially, Bao Bao had received Qin Wushuang’s order and came here to monitor every movement of the Dragon and Tiger sect to seek the truth behind everyone.
Bao Bao’s concealing ability was outstanding. He concealed beneath the inn that the Dragon and Tiger Sect currently occupied. From beginning to end, he had taken in all of their movements.
Naturally, Bao Bao did not miss that mysterious person whom Shi Chenglong had just met. He had heard everything.
He twisted his body and disappeared from the balcony.
…
Currently, Qin Wushuang was reuniting with all his old hometown friends from the Bai Yue at one of the restaurant. Currently, the atmosphere was reaching its climax. Tong Yan especially showed quite a bit of enthusiasm as he said: “Everyone, the martial arts students of the Bai Yue are riding a rising tide. Now, in the Great Luo Empire, all the other Subordinate Countries no longer dare behave like they did in the past by bullying all of us when they hear our name. Honestly, all of these things did not happen because of us, it’s because of Marquis Wushuang’s contribution! Does everyone agree?”
Xi Men Xing and the others all laughed while rubbing their hands: “Tong Yan, you are absolutely right. Without Wushuang, how could the rest of us hold superior position in the sect.”
Wan Jinpeng and He Zichong all nodded. Currently, they felt that Qin Wushuang was a high mountain that they could not climb. They felt that everything seemed to be a dream when they remembered how they were competing in the martial arts student exam. It was only three years ago. Yet, too many changes had happened in the last three years.
Qin Wushuang said: “Everyone, it doesn’t matter saying such things since only the Bai Yue disciples are here. However, you must never speak such words inside the sect. Just in case someone who holds evil intention as it would not benefit the Bai Yue.”
Tong Yao nodded since her personality was much more mature: “Marquis Wushuang is right.”
Tong Yan laughed: “Sis, why do you still call him Marquis Wushuang. Both you guys study under the same teacher under the Green Cloud Palace. You should address him as Senior Brother.”
Stunned, Tong Yao glanced at Qin Wushuang and fell into silence without speaking. Inwardly, she also felt somewhat strange. Regarding age, she was two or three years older than Qin Wushuang. However, Qin Wushuang had entered the sect much earlier than her. According to the principle, she should address Qin Wushuang as Senior Brother.
However, Tong Yao felt she could not utter the words “Senior Brother.”
Qin Wushuang spoke for her: “Tong, you are quite naughty.”
Tong Yan chuckled: “Marquis Wushuang, I’m just speaking the truth! You are now Junior Sister and Senior Brother of the same sect, my sister should call you Senior Brother according to the rule.”
The others all laughed which enlivened the atmosphere much more.
Suddenly, below Qin Wushuang’s feet, Bao Bao climbed out and jumped onto his shoulder. He said in a low voice: “Boss Wushuang, there is a situation.”
He whispered besides his ear. Qin Wushuang’s face changed slightly: “Really?”
Bao Bao nodded: “I’m absolutely sure. Boss Wushuang, this person’s face was extremely distorted. However, he is good at persuasion. Shi Chenglong got scared by him and appeared lost.”
Qin Wushuang stood up after a moment of silence: “Everyone, I need to take care of this emergency. This is it for today’s gathering. How about we meet again in the future?”
Everyone felt somewhat disappointed when they heard that Qin Wushuang was leaving. However, they also knew Qin Wushuang’s heavy responsibility as they nodded and bid goodbye to him.
Qin Wushuang immediately started to head outside after cupping his hands in a salute. While he walked, he let out the Purple Flame Electric Beast and instructed: “You two will conceal yourself on both the left and right side of the inn. If that person tries to escape, you will stop him. Remember, take him alive. Before this, I will see what is going on.”
Bao Bao and the Purple Flame Electric Beast all nodded as they knew the importance of this matter. In a whoosh, they disappeared into the sky. Qin Wushuang started walking towards the inn where the Dragon and Tiger sect stayed.
Following Bao Bao’s information, Qin Wushuang quickly found the room of that strange guest. He put on his mask and walked over.
As he knocked, a low growl shouted: “Who?”
Qin Wushuang send his voice: “Disciple from the Dragon and Tiger sect, I am inviting you over to discuss something.”
That person sneered: “What, Shi Chenglong has made up his mind?”
Qin Wushuang just answered “yes” calmly. Just as that person was about to open the door, he suddenly stopped his footsteps. A trace of alarm emerged in his head.
“No, I think I’ve heard this voice before!” A wave of alarm emerged in the mind of this strange guest. He could not help but stop his footsteps, “Just when have I heard it before? Where?”
He thought quickly and suddenly, he remembered someone. Feeling shocked, he thought: “It’s him, Qin Wushuang of the Stargaze!”
When his thoughts arrived on that conclusion, a wave rapid movements emerged in his chest as raging hatred dashed into his head. He held the weapon at his chest lightly and wanted take him out.
“No!” That strange guest immediately stopped his urges. “I must not do it!”
“Since that Qin Wushuang destroyed my Archaic’s door and even Teacher and those Heads were not his competitor, I don’t think I will match up to him despite being in the Advanced Stage. This Qin Wushuang also has spiritual beasts as his friends. I will never be able to deal with him!”
When he thought here, this person calmed down and slowly opened the door. He wanted to see what tricks he was playing, this person who claimed to be a disciple to the Dragon and Tiger sect.
When he opened the door, he saw a strange face. His appearance was completely different than the one he saw at the Friendly Eastern Competition.
Although this person felt somewhat stunned, he immediately understood: “This Qin Wushuang has put on a mask, he is truly sly!”
He spoke without making a fuss: “Take me to Head Shi.”
Although he knew this person was Qin Wushuang, he did not expose him. Instead, he would use his strategy against him.
Qin Wushuang said with a smile: “Please follow me.
As he spoke, he headed downstairs.
That person said when he walked to the lobby: “Isn’t Head Shi staying in the inn? Why did he go downstairs?”
Qin Wushuang said leisurely: “Head Shi changed his mind all of a sudden since he decided to find a safer place. There are too many ears and eyes here…”
Inwardly, that person knew the situation was not good. Since this Qin Wushuang had said these words, would it mean that he knew he had met with Shi Chenglong?
Could it be that Shi Chenlong had already sold him out this quickly?
“Darn it!” This strange guest shouted inwardly and cursed at all nine generations of Shi Chenglong’s family. Initially, he thought that if that Shi Chenglong was smart enough or brave enough, he would not reveal what they had talked about in their conversation.
No one knew that a disciple of the Stargaze would immediately show up. Without a doubt, Shi Chenglong had snitched on him. Or else, why would it have been exposed this quickly?
He didn’t think about how Bao Bao had heard everything in the conversation between him and Shi Chenglong.
“What, earlier, you showcased great courage and said some big words, why are you backing out now?” Qin Wushuang asked lightly.
That person fixed his tone: “You are not a disciple of the Dragon sect!”
“Oh?” Qin Wushuang laughed, “How do you know?”
That person said: “This time, there are ten disciples from the Dragon and Tiger sect. I have observed all of them and you are not one of them. Just who are you?”
Qin Wushuang laughed: “Wouldn’t you know who I am if you follow me?”
That person said angrily: “I am afraid I cannot do that since I don’t know who you are.”
Qin Wushuang said coldly: “You will not come?”
“No.” That person shook his head, “Unless you tell me who you are.”
Qin Wushuang laughed: “Since you are not going, let’s talk here. How about at that balcony? You would not fear just talking with me, right.”
This person was feeling extremely nervous inwardly. However, he also knew that he was forcing himself to withstand this situation. Or else, once he exposed himself, he would fall here. It would not matter if he died, but would no longer be any hope of passing on the legacy of the Archaic Mysterious sect.
When he thoughts arrived here, this person discarded all distracting thoughts and headed to that balcony with Qin Wushuang.
“Speak, what do you want.” That person spoke lightly.
“I don’t want to speak any unnecessary words. I only want to know who you are. Your intentions when you were trying to persuade Head Shi. If you cannot or refuse to answer this, don’t think about leaving this inn alive today.”
Although Qin Wushuang spoke with a light tone, he emitted sharp and cold aura. He intentionally unleashed his aura and engulfed the entire inn inside it. This way, it would be impossible if Shi Chenglong even tried to pretend to not know about this.
That person laughed coldly: “Are you interrogating me?”
“No, I only want to let you know your current situation. You will either speak the truth or die. It’s simple!”
That person laughed madly: “Death? You dare to kill me?”
“Give me a reason not to.” Qin Wushuang said lightly.
“Firstly, my identity is unknown. If the Stargaze wants to take over the east, you must still face some powerhouses in the human countries. If you dare to offend these powerhouses, you will not be able to continue your ambitions! Secondly, if you kill me, that spiritual key of the Archaic Mysterious Sect will never be found again!”
There was a trace of madness in the tone of this person. Apparently, he was looking to take the risk and act boldly. He knew that in today’s situation, he would certainly die if his identity was exposed. Besides using some advantages to deal with it, he no longer had any other options.
