Chapter 49: The Overbearing Eighth Master
Chu Nan and Ling Luo Creek strolled for a whole morning, had lunch outside, and just carried several bags of spoils to the downstairs of the residential area. When they saw a man in black standing at the downstairs of the residential area, this man in black said with an attitude that was neither humble nor arrogant after seeing Chu Nan: "Excuse me, are you Mr. Chu Nan?"
"Who am I?" asked Chu Nan, "and who are you?"
I am a person of little importance, not worth mentioning. My master wants to invite Mr. Chu to come over now, I don't know if Mr. Chu has time.
"Who is your master?"
"Ah, old man!"
This was not the first time Chunan had heard this name, in Wu Pei's mouth, in Hua Linglong's mouth, Chunan had also heard of this name.
Ba Ye, the big brother of Jiangwan City's underworld, even Hua Linglong has to yield to him!
I have never had any dealings with Eighth Master before, and now I am very close to Hua Linglong. Just now, I helped Hua Linglong deal with Seventh Brother, because of my own reasons, which made Hua Linglong quickly threaten his position. It's obvious that this time Eighth Master is looking for me won't be anything good.
However, Chu Nan still agreed: "Wait here for a moment, I'll send the things up and come back."
The man slightly bowed and said: "Alright, I'll wait for Mr. Chu here."
Chu Nan carried things and Ling Luo Xi walked upstairs, walking in the corridor, Ling Luo Xi complained: "Brother Chu, why did you agree to their invitation so easily? Eighth Master must hate you now, maybe it's a trap."
Chu Nan smiled faintly and said: "You don't understand, if I want to establish myself in Jiangwan City, I must meet with Eighth Master. With Eighth Master's power, he will definitely investigate me thoroughly, but I know nothing about him, which is unfavorable for me. So meeting him once will actually be more beneficial for me."
"Alright then..."
Chu Nan smiled and asked: "Don't you want to go with me?"
"What are you going with me to do? Accompany you into the tiger's lair? I'm not that stupid!"; Ling Luo Xi hesitated for a moment and said softly, "I'm useless in every way, I don't want to go over there and drag you down."
"In the south of Chu, a warm feeling arose in her heart, and with a confident smile, she said: 'Foolish girl, don't worry, even if it's a Hongmen Banquet or a Dragon's Lair, they may not be able to keep me! If they are tigers, I am a whale shark. If they want to swallow me, they'll be afraid their mouths aren't big enough!'"
Zero Creek smiled and said: "Big bad egg, I like you with this confident look."
Chu Nan took out the key and opened the door, carrying things in and putting them on the floor, smiling: "Alright, Xiao Ling, wait for me at home, I still have to attend that dinner party hosted by Hua Ling tonight, I'll be back late, you go to bed early. Bye bye."
Zero Creek smiled and said: "Bye bye."
Chu Nan walked down to the lobby, glanced at the man in black and said, "We can leave now."
"Please board the bus, sir."
Chu Nan got into the black sedan next to him, and the man in black personally drove the car, taking Chu Nan directly out of the neighborhood, further and further away from the city, the more they drove, the more desolate it became. The man in black secretly glanced at Chu Nan twice, finding that he was sitting there yawning, even closing his eyes drowsily, a thread of vigilance rose in his heart, this Chu Nan was either extremely reckless or an extraordinary person, probably the latter.
In front of him was a vast estate that came into view. The man in black looked at Chu Nan who was drowsy and said calmly: "Is Mr. Chu asleep?"
"Oh, I'm a bit sleepy, what's up?" Chu Nan opened his eyes and stretched lazily.
The man in black smiled and said: "We'll be there soon. Up ahead is the town of Jiangzhuang Manor where Eighth Master resides. In all of Jiangwan City, there's no place larger than this one. Not even Huā Línglóng's Línglóng Yuàn can compare to it."
Chu Nan raised her eyes and saw that the area of the Zhuangyuan in Zhenjiang was probably several thousand square meters, and compared to Linglong Garden, it was indeed a difference of more than one level.
The man in black continued: "We call this place Zhenjiang Manor, which means that as long as our Eighth Master is here, he can keep the entire Jiangwan City under control. No matter who you are, dragon or insect, once you see our Eighth Master, you must be honest and obedient, because in Jiangwan City, the daytime belongs to the government, but the nighttime belongs to our Eighth Master!"
Damn it! Chu Nan could tell that the man in black was intentionally saying this for his own ears, probably at the behest of Eighth Master to give himself a warning, to knock some sense into himself. Chu Nan sneered and didn't respond, thinking to himself that he would see just how big and solid the sky was, whether he could pierce through it!
The man in black saw that Chu Nan had no reaction at all, not a hint of the reverence that others showed when mentioning Eighth Master, and knew that this man was far from ordinary, so he didn't bother to waste his breath any further.
The manor was heavily guarded, with several guards standing at the iron gate. After the black-clad men showed their IDs, they were allowed to drive in and stopped outside a villa in the middle of the compound.
After getting off the car, Chu Nan took a glance around and found that there were guards standing almost everywhere in the manor. Some of them even had hunting dogs with them, and the defense was extremely strict. Although the strength of these guards wasn't very strong, they weren't ordinary thugs either. It seemed what Wu Pei said was true - this Eighth Master may not have his own territory, but he was indeed a person with the deepest background. No wonder people say that the entire Jiangwan City is his territory!
The man in black stretched out his hand and said calmly: "Mr. Chu, please!"
Chu Nan looked at the man in black and asked: "What's your name?"
"My name is Kuroba!"
"Hei Yu?" Chu Nan wrote it down. "With this name, you're definitely not an ordinary bodyguard here. You already have the combat strength of a top-notch elite fighter. You're the strongest person I've seen since arriving in Jiangwan City, even stronger than Er Gui! Impressive!"
Hei Yu's heart was shocked, the man in front of him, who was even younger than himself, had seen through his true strength with just one glance. Could it be that the other party's strength was above elite level? This was absolutely impossible. A master-level expert, even in the entire Jiangwan City, aside from the one beside the master, couldn't be found again. That level of expert was something ordinary people could hardly reach in their lifetime. How could he possibly have such strength at his young age?
That leaves only one possibility: he himself has not been a top-notch master for long, while the other party is already an outstanding figure among top-notch masters, so they can see through his strength at a glance. However, even if that's the case, this Chu Nan, who looks like he's only around 20 years old, has reached such a level, which is rare enough.
Hei Yu nodded and followed Chu Nan towards the villa's grand hall.
After entering the villa hall, Hei Yu made Chu Nan sit down in the lower seat first, and then asked the servant to brew a cup of tea. Then he said: "Mr. Chu, please wait for a moment, I'll go tell the master that you've arrived."
"No need to tell me, I already know."; With a slightly hoarse voice, the Eighth Master walked down from upstairs, and Li Batian, as tough as steel, followed closely behind him. When Chu Nan saw Li Batian, his eyes revealed a hint of surprise. In Jiangwan City, he had actually encountered such a master. The depth of this Eighth Master was indeed not ordinary.
Li Batian also glanced at Chu Nan, his eyes gleaming with a terrifyingly oppressive aura, and even Hei Yu, such a master, couldn't help but lower his head under Li's gaze, showing just how frightening Li's gaze was.
However, Chu Nan simply looked at him calmly and then withdrew his gaze indifferently. The terrifying pressure in Li Ba Tian's eyes seemed to have no effect on Chu Nan. A hint of surprise flashed across Li Ba Tian's eyes.
The eighth master seemed to be completely unaware of this, slowly walking down to the first floor and sitting down in the main seat. One hand was lightly placed on the armrest of the chair, while the other hand was placed on the side table. He looked at Chu Nan who was sitting below him on his left-hand side, a faint smile appearing on his face as he said softly: "So you're Chu Nan?"
Ba Ye wasn't as overbearing and sharp-tongued as Chu Nan had imagined, but rather like an ancient, precious sword - its edge couldn't be seen in ordinary times, but once it was revealed, it would be the moment of taking a life, such a person is really frightening.
Chu Nan asked back in surprise: "Are you really Eighth Young Master?"
A hint of surprise flashed across his eyes, and he smiled faintly: "That's right, I'm Fang Bazi, everyone calls me Eighth Master."
"That's right, I am Chusouth! The Chu in my name is the same as the one in 'Chu State', and the Nan refers to the south direction. I'm the son of Chulongtian."
The old man's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he chuckled: "Chu Changtian, a very familiar name, I've forgotten. Over the years, Jiangwan City has had generation after generation of heroes, emerging one after another, but in the end, some died, some hid, and I really can't remember them all."
Chu Nan also stopped entangling on this issue and calmly said: "I heard that the eighth master is the overlord of Jiangwan City Road, I don't know what to call me for?"
"Chu Nan, since you know I'm the overlord of Jiangwan City's underworld, you should understand my character. In this world, every industry has its own ruthless competition that can't be seen in public, whether it's the government, business, or the underground world. People die every day, and even more so in our underground world. Yet I've managed to sit in this position for so many years and still live a good life, do you know why?"
Chu Nan asked: "Why?"
A flash of cold light flickered in Ba Ye's eyes as he said in a chilly tone: "Because all those who could threaten me have already died at my hands!"
When Eighth Master said this, Chu Nan saw that Eighth Master's gaze was fixed on himself, with a sharp light like the edge of a knife.
Chu Nan sneered coldly in his heart, a naked threat!
