Chapter 254: The Mysterious Masked Man



The moment she saw the masked man, Xue Huan couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, because the man gave her a sense of déjà vu, and she felt like she had seen the lower half of his face somewhere.

She went through the people she knew in her mind one by one. When Nan Tang's face passed by, a flash of lightning struck Xue Huan's mind. Yes, Nan Tang!

The lower half of the masked man’s face is very similar to Nan Tang’s!

Just based on the similar lower half of the face, Xue Huan couldn't confirm whether that person was Nan Tang.

Even if that's the case, it has nothing to do with her, right?

After all, she and Nan Tang didn't have a very deep friendship, and they were not even friends.

But now that they have met, Xue Huan still wants to find out. If Nan Tang is really planning a rebellion in secret, then she has to stay away from him as much as possible to avoid being accidentally involved in some big conspiracy.

Xue Huan brought the mole beast into the space and rewarded it with three drops of spiritual spring water. "Thank you for your hard work. Go and have fun. You can eat as much fruit as you want in the orchard."

"Oh, that's great! Thank you, master! Long live the master!" The molehill cheered and ran happily into the orchard.

Xue Huan knew that it had long coveted those fruits that were full of spiritual energy, but because its appetite was too astonishing and its destructive power was great, she usually did not allow it to go to the orchard, lest it break the fruit tree in half with a swing of its tail.

But this time it has made great contributions, so it should be rewarded.

Xue Huan entered the observation room - the name she gave to the thatched hut that appeared first, because the illusion breaker was placed in it, so she could see the situation outside at any time.

Sitting down behind the desk, Xue Huan controlled the Five Elements Beads with her consciousness to pass through the mountain wall and came to the iron workshop opposite, following the masked man who looked like Nan Tang all the way.

After visiting the weapons workshop, the manager brought the masked man to the warehouse where the weapons were stored. As soon as they entered, Xue Huan was shocked.

The entire warehouse is as large as half a football field and is very tall. It is filled with row after row of ready-made weapons, including swords, spears, swords, and sticks.

Each one flashes with a cold light and looks extremely sharp.

"Master, look," the steward said proudly, raising his arm to introduce the masked man.

The masked man picked up a knife and slashed it at the stone wall. Clang! A dent appeared on the stone wall, but the blade remained intact.

"Not bad." The masked man praised.

The manager looked excited, as if it was a rare thing to receive a compliment from the masked man.

After looking at the armory, the two came to the training ground. There were thousands of people on the ground, arranging their troops under the guidance of a man in black.

Those people were wearing black shorts, their eyes were firm, their sword-wielding movements were powerful and in unison, their shouts were deafening, and they were quite imposing.

The masked man and the steward were standing on a platform that was more than ten meters higher than the training ground. After watching for a while, the masked man suddenly flew down and landed in the center of the military formation where everyone was rehearsing.

"Come on, attack me."

Everyone was startled and looked at the instructor in black.

When the instructor saw the masked man, his originally serious and cold face melted instantly, and he became excited, with a burning light in his eyes, as if a little fan had seen his idol.

"Do as the master says!"

Master? Everyone realized that the man who suddenly appeared in the mask was the master that the instructor had always mentioned, and the one they swore allegiance to!

The master had ordered them to attack him, surely to test the results of their training over such a long period of time? They would definitely not let him down!

Everyone gripped their weapons tightly, quickly changed their formation, and attacked the masked man.

Those who are selected here are all good fighters who can fight ten people at once. After going through so much training of blood and fire for so long, their fighting power is off the charts, and fighting one against a hundred people is not a problem.

Besides, there are so many of them, and they are supported by the formation. Even if a top-notch master comes, he probably won’t be able to do anything, right?

However, they soon understood what it meant to go against the will of heaven.

The people in the formation didn't even make a move. They just used the energy from their bodies to shake off all the people who were besieging them.

"After training for so long, is this all you have left?" The masked man's voice was pleasant, like the gentle breeze and flowing spring water, but the words he said were not very pleasant to the ear.

Everyone roared and rushed forward again.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Before they could touch the edge of the masked man's clothes, they were knocked down again.

This was a completely one-sided defeat.

The masked man shook his head: "Too weak."

Not only did they suffer repeated physical torture, but they were also hit hard psychologically.

Watching those bastards under his command charging and fighting again and again but failing again and again, the black-clad instructor couldn't help but recall the fear he felt when he was dominated by his master's high martial arts skills.

After the masked man left, the black-clad instructor took the opportunity to step forward and reveal a cruel truth to everyone: "Do you know? The master didn't even use 10% of his strength just now."

Everyone: “…”

Instructor, we have already suffered double damage both physically and mentally. Do you still want to rub salt into our wounds?

"Look at you all, you act so arrogant every day, thinking you're so awesome, but in reality, you're nothing!"

In the past, everyone would have refuted him, but now, after witnessing the master's extraordinary strength, they truly understood a truth: there are always people better than you, and the little strength they boasted about was really not enough.

Otherwise, how could so many people unite together and not even survive three moves under the master's hands? Shame on him, shame on him!

"From today on, everyone's training will be doubled! We will strive not to disappoint our Master next time!"

Everyone responded with a roar: "Yes!"

In the space, Xue Huan couldn't help but feel excited when she heard the thunderous response.

Seeing that the masked man had walked out of the illusion-breaking sensing range, she hurriedly controlled the Five Elements Beads to follow him.

"Master, this is the room prepared for you. There is a hot spring pool behind the screen. You can take a bath to relax."

The masked man nodded.

The man in gray seemed to be hesitant to speak, as if he wanted to say something but was hesitant.

The masked man said, "Just tell me what you have to say."

"Master, do you need someone to serve you? If you need me, I will arrange it right away."

There are no women here. If he wants to serve his master, he can only find someone else.

"No, you can leave."

"yes."

The masked man was the only one left in the room.

The rooms built in the belly of the mountain naturally cannot be very exquisite. They are all built with stones. The style is relatively rough, but they also have a simple and ancient beauty.

Xue Huan saw the masked man walking behind the screen and thought, "Is he going to take a bath? He'll probably take off his mask then."

She was not in a hurry to follow in. After all, she had no hobby of watching others take off their clothes.

It won’t be too late to wait until he enters the pool and then go over to see his face.
