Chapter 681
Although the two of them had left the mountain, during their journey down, the more they thought
about it, the more uneasy and unsatisfied they felt.

Therefore, that night, the two quietly crept back up the mountain and slipped into the old man''s
room with the intention of stealing the manuscript of the Secret Dual-Wielding Technique.
However, they searched for a while and not only did they not find the manuscript, they identally
woke their master up.
When he realized that the two hade back to steal the manuscript, he flew into a rage, wanting
to eradicate their martial arts skill and expel them from his training.
The two immediately knelt down and apologized, begging for mercy. They admitted their
wrongdoings and begged their master to let them go just this once.
Since he had been guiding and nurturing the pair for more than ten years, the old man''s heart went
soft and he let them go. However, they were banished forever.
They agreed and proposed to bow and pay respects to their master before leaving.
But once their master let his guard down, the twounched a surprise attack, heavily injuring him
and forcing him to hand over the secret manuscript of Dual-Wielding technique.
The old man never thought that his own two disciples would be so cunning and cruel as to betray
him. He was heartbroken and deeply disappointed.
After getting forced into it, the old man finally told them why he would not teach them the
dualwielding technique.
It turned out that this technique required the user to have a calm conscience and mental state, as
well as perfect bnce and synchronized movements of both hands. The user would need
meditation and training bnce to even begin learning the technique. As long as any of the
requirements were not fulfilled, no matter how much one tried to force it, they would still be unable
to learn it.
Since the beginning, the old man had already seen through the temperament of the two disciples,
and he knew that they would not be able to pick up the technique. Therefore, based on their
strengths, he taught them each a weapon, hoping that they would continue training to the highest
level and turning it into a powerful skill.
However, he never thought that they would get so greedy, even to the extend of ming him for
withholding his teachings and making them weak. In the end, they performed the most heinous act
ever by killing their own master.
When they first heard his exnation, they were both dazed. In a panic and out of greed, they
chose not to believe their master and forced him to give them the manuscript.
But they were afraid that the old man would spread the news and take revenge on them, so the two
decided to be ruthless and murder him upon obtaining the manuscript. Next, they fled.
After fleeing, the two studied the manuscript bitterly. They wanted to learn the art of dualwielding no
matter what. Therefore, they trained for years, only to learn that it was exactly as their master had
predicted. They were unable to even grasp the technique of dual-wielding, and it turned them even
more distraught, affecting their original skills.
The two felt hopeless and they searched for other ways,bining two people into one, both of
them acting as a single entity. One held the sword while the other held the de, effectively
bing a dual-wield. After training like this, they realized that the results were still decent. But no
matter what they did, it was nothingpared to
the old man''s dual-wielding technique.
But when the two cooperated and fought in sync, their strength was formidable. Especially when
they first achieved the early stage of the ck Level, theirbined sword and de technique
was nothing less than powerful. Many Yellow Level fighters were no match for them anymore.
As a result, the two gradually became famous. Their names were de Yang and Sherry Liu,
known as de and Sherry by martial artists.
However, it was not long after the two rose to fame that certain people discovered the truth about
the death of the old man. de and Sherry, who had just be famous, instantly lost their
reputation and were regarded as scum by the martial arts world.
Many friends and acquaintances of the old man, as well as those who were righteous, hade
out to hunt both of them, determined to avenge the old man.
Because of the circumstances, the two had been on the run ever since, evading death. Finally, five
years ago, they managed to escape the radar and disappear.
Some said they were killed, others said they escaped. Some thought de and Shery lived far
away in a secluded area, hiding from the world.
Some even said they managed to escape abroad.
No one knew which of the various theories was true. However, as time went by, the two of them
were no longer sighted, and everyone slowly forgot about them.
No one expected them to show up at Master Xu''s residence.
Moreover, judging from the aura they gave off, it was obvious that their strength and skills had
improved a lot, perhaps reaching Mid-stage ck Level.
When the first two started using their joint technique, they easily beat many middle- stage ck
Levels. Now that they themselves were of middle-stage ck Level strength, higher ck Levels
did not pose a threat to them anymore.
For a moment, everyone in the room was excited. They looked at Fade as if he was a dead man.
Because, no matter how strong this kid was, even if he was ck Level, he would only be at the
Early- stage of the ck Level at most. In this case, he had no chance of winning against de
and Sherry.
Gary was also full of confidence. He looked at Fade and said, "You, it''s your honor to stand before
these two, de and Sherry!"
After all, it was almost impossible that masters like de and Sherry would follow Gary as
bodyguards. But because the Yao family saved them when they were fleeing, they decided to stay
with the Yao family.
Gary was worried about his safety during this current trip to Bay City, so he used his cousin Hector''s
identity to persuade these two to protect him.
After all, even in the Yao family, there were not many masters of their level. There would not protect
him a second time.
Because of this, Gary decided to hide them until they were really needed. He didn''t want to waste
them on a small fry in a small city like this.
In addition, the two of them had long surpassed the rules of the Stealth Team in terms of being
ck Level fighters, so it would not be ideal to bring them out as he pleased. Besides, given the
incident with their master, their reputation wasn''t ster either.
Gary didn''t want them to make a move too soon.
Unexpectedly, he was forced into this situation by Fade, so he had to ask them toe forward.
de and Sherry nced at Fade from the corner of their eyes. Then, with a look of disdain, they
said to Gary, "You want us to fight this lousy type?"
Gary smiled, embarrassed as he said, "Sorry to trouble you!"
"Then make it quick. One move is all we need." The two nodded, and then they looked at each
other.
Next, they looked at Fade and smiled. "Boy, it''s your honor to die by our hands!"
As they spoke, the two of them grinned hideously, and their de and the sword moved at the same
time.
However, at this moment, Fade looked at the two of them with no fear at all.
On the contrary, Fade frowned and said to them with disgust, "Fighting with you is simply degrading.
You notorious betrayer!"
Fade''s words silenced the crowd. Everyone held their breath as they stared at Fade in shock.
