Chapter 257: Tooth for Tooth



After the meal, Master Wushuang ordered his servants to arrange accommodation for Blood Shadow and Dark Moon Fairy.

Blood Shadow put his arm around Dark Moon Fairy's shoulders and said with a smile, "Master Wushuang, just one room will do!"

Dark Moon Enchantress twisted his waist hard with her hands. Blood Shadow grimaced in pain but didn't dare to scream.

Wushuang looked at them, his eyebrows twitching slightly. He hadn't expected them to be a couple. Indeed, no wonder the two assassin organizations could coexist harmoniously in Dazhao Country!

Dark Moon Fairy glared at Blood Shadow, then smiled apologetically at Wushuang and said, "Master Wushuang, I'm sorry, don't listen to Blood Shadow's nonsense!"

Xueying looked at Dark Moon Fairy with an aggrieved look on his face, but Dark Moon Fairy ignored him and just said to Wushuang, "Master Wushuang, please prepare two rooms for us."

Young Master Wushuang smiled and nodded in agreement.

Afterwards, Wushuang took them to the guest room and told them that they could always contact him if they needed anything.

After thanking Wushuang, Blood Shadow and Dark Moon Fairy went into their respective rooms.

Xueying looked at Dark Moon Fairy as she walked into the room, feeling a little disappointed, but still said with a smile: "Then you should rest first, good night."

Dark Moon Enchantress looked back at him, nodded, and then closed the door.

Xueying turned and went into his room, lying on the bed, the image of Dark Moon Fairy constantly emerging in his mind. Her beauty, mystery and power all made him feel moved.

Just when Xueying was thinking of an excuse to approach Dark Moon Fairy, a figure suddenly crawled in from the window. It was Xiao Xi.

Xueying looked at Xiaoxi with disdain and said, "I say, can you be a little more ambitious? Did you learn all your martial arts from a dog? Every time you come here, you have to climb through a window or a hole. Can't you just go through the main door?"

Xiao Xi felt a little embarrassed by what Xueying said. He scratched his head and said, "Hehe, it's because I'm afraid of being discovered. Next time I will definitely come in through the roof and make sure the young master doesn't see me in such a mess again."

Xueying glanced at him and asked calmly, "How's the investigation going?"

Xiao Xi's expression turned serious, and he replied earnestly, "Master, I have some clues, but further investigation is needed."

Xueying frowned slightly and asked, "What's going on? Explain it clearly."

Xiao Xi took a deep breath and said slowly, "I'd like to know if you ate the steamed sea bass on the pleasure boat?"

Xueying raised his eyebrows, trying to recall, then nodded and said, "Yes, that steamed sea bass was indeed very delicious. She and I enjoyed it very much and even finished the whole plate of fish."

Xiao Xi looked at Xueying's expression and continued cautiously, "Young Master! I've found out that those sea bass are a premium tonic that Nanyi supplies exclusively to high-ranking officials and nobles! They're farmed using precious medicinal herbs!"

Hearing this, Xueying frowned and asked in a low voice, "You mean... this sea bass is poisonous?"

Xiao Xi quickly shook his head and explained, "No, Young Master! This kind of sea bass is not poisonous. On the contrary, it is a good thing for strengthening the body and can be said to be a precious medicinal material."

Xueying looked at her in confusion: "You wait here!"

After saying that, he turned and walked out the door. He walked to the next door with steady and powerful steps and raised his hand to knock on the door.

Soon, footsteps were heard in the room. Dark Moon Fairy opened the door a crack, stuck her cute little head out, frowned, and asked unhappily, "What are you doing in the middle of the night?"

Xueying looked at her and said calmly, "There's some progress on Nan Yi's matter. Come with me to meet someone!"

Hearing this, Dark Moon Fairy's eyes suddenly lit up, and she nodded quickly and said, "Okay, I'll be right there!" As she spoke, she closed the door, then quickly tidied her clothes and hair, and followed Blood Shadow out.

Blood Shadow gently opened the door and walked in with Dark Moon Fairy. Standing in the room was a man in black, and it was Xiao Xi.

Seeing them come in, Xiao Xi stood up, smiled and nodded to Dark Moon Fairy, a sly glint in his eyes, and said, "Madam Young Master!"

Dark Moon Fairy nodded slightly and said straight to the point, "How's the investigation into Nan Yi going?"

Xiao Xi smiled and replied, "We've already made some progress, but there are still some details that need to be confirmed."

Dark Moon Fairy came forward curiously and asked, "What's going on? Tell me!"

Xiao Xi lowered his voice mysteriously and told her what he had found out.

After listening to Xiao Xi's story, Dark Moon Fairy suddenly realized, "So that's how it is! Sea bass raised with medicinal herbs is a very nutritious food in itself. Once combined with the fragrance of orchids, it becomes a potent aphrodisiac! Xiao Jingyi thought that since you are weak, if you become aroused, you will surely die!"

Dark Moon Fairy said angrily, "What a cruel heart you have!"

But she didn't show any fear. Instead, the corners of her mouth rose slightly, revealing a sly smile.

"How dare he plot against us! Since he likes to use poison so much, I will let him taste the consequences of his own actions!" Dark Moon Enchantress thought to herself.

As she spoke, she took out a small and exquisite porcelain bottle from her arms and handed it to Xiao Xi.

"Drop this into Xiao Jingyi's tea." A hint of coldness flashed in Dark Moon Fairy's eyes, and she said in a firm tone.

After Xiao Xi took the porcelain bottle, he put it away carefully and nodded.

"I will definitely complete the task!" he promised Dark Moon Enchantress.

Dark Moon Enchantress looked at Xiao Xi, her eyes full of trust.
