Feng Kai and the others all felt that her guess was too outrageous.
However, he couldn't think of any other reason.
"Then why did the people on the stage go berserk?" Little Seven asked.
"I think that the arena will release some kind of gas. When the gas is mixed with blood, it will make people go crazy." Sima Youyue said.
"I think so too." Bi Sheng said, "Actually, everyone understands, but many people like it this way, they feel that it's exciting, so no one cares."
Sima Youyue nodded. It was easy to guess. Those people were not fools. Naturally, they would have guessed it.
"But there will also be situations like that day where both sides suffer losses. If they still had a bit of rationality back then, they probably wouldn't have ended up in that state. "Little Seven said.
"That's true."
"Boss, why do you think the City Lord gave you this bag of tea leaves?" Feng Kai asked.
"I think he's hinting at something, but I don't know much about this place, so I can't figure out what he's hinting at." Sima Youyue shook her head.
"Blood Demon Tree, the smell of blood, flesh and blood, the crimson moon …"
"Could it be …" Shi Chen was so frightened by his own thoughts that he couldn't even speak.
"What did Big Brother Shi Chen think of?" Little Seven looked at him curiously.
Shi Chen took a deep breath and voiced his guess. "Could it be that all this was caused by the Blood Demon Tree?"
"Blood Demon Tree?"
"That's right, the Blood Demon Tree had absorbed the flesh and blood, which is why its tender shoots would have the smell of blood. And the one that absorbed the flesh and blood in the Blood Arena was it! "The more Shi Chen spoke, the more he felt that his guess was correct.
"Then why did that City Lord want Yue Yue to notice the Blood Demon Tree?" Little Seven didn't understand, "If the Blood Demon Tree really wants to eat people, then by doing that, wouldn't he be exposing the Blood Demon Tree?"
That didn't seem to make sense.
"Youyue, when he met you, did the City Lord say his name?" Bi Sheng asked.
"He said his name is Li Hong." Sima You Yue said, "Speaking of which, when he told me his name, he seemed to have emphasized the word 'Hong' a bit, as if to emphasize it."
"Li Hong, Li Hong." Bi Sheng mulled over these two words and suddenly had a flash of inspiration as he said, "I remember hearing people say that this City Lord is called Li Zhi!"
"When did this happen?"
"Many years ago, when I went out in the middle of the night to investigate the City Lord's mansion, I saw a black-robed man outside. He was heavily injured. When he saw me, he only said two words, Li Zhi … and then he died." Bi Sheng said, "At that time it was just two words, I didn't connect it with the City Lord's name. Now that I think about it, he should have been talking about Li Zhi."
Sima Youyue said, "None of you noticed his name before?"
"In Blood Fiend City, no one knows the City Lord's name. Everyone only knew that his surname was Li, but no one asked what his name was. Even when they meet him, they only address him as City Lord Li. "Shi Chen said," Moreover, this City Lord is very mysterious. Very few people have seen him before. "
"That's right." Feng Kai said, "The past City Lords were all very mysterious. Now that this one lives in seclusion, no one felt anything strange about it."
"Li Zhi, Li Hong." Sima Youyue said, "I think that the news that person risked his life to bring out shouldn't be fake. But the person that I met should be real too. "
"Then why would that person have two names?" Little Seven was dumbfounded.
"I think, maybe, that City Lord Li's body has two souls living in it." Sima Youyue said.
"Two souls?"
"Two souls, how is that possible?!" Feng Kai said in shock.
"It's not impossible." Bi Sheng said in a low voice, "I once heard that some people have two souls living in their bodies. Sometimes it's one person who comes out, sometimes it's another person. "
"Is it a possession?"
"It's not a possession." Sima Youyue said, "Some people have two souls in one body when they're pregnant, it's another kind of twins."
"There's such a thing?"
"Yes, but it's not common." Sima Youyue said, "There are also some people who have two personalities in one soul, this is more common. But these people usually don't have two names. Like City Lord Li, he should have two souls in one body. "
"Tsk tsk, now that I think about it, it's really like that." Bi Sheng said, "I think, maybe there are two souls, one is better and one is worse. But the good can't win against the bad so I can only give you this hint."
"But what's the use of the hint?" Little Seven asked. "And why did he hint about the Blood Demon Tree?"
"We'll know when we check." Sima Youyue said.
"How do we check?"
"We'll go tonight. As for how to check, you'll know when the time comes."
That night, the group went to the Blood Arena again.
"Oh, Young Master Si Yue and Miss Little Seven are here!" The manager went up to welcome them but didn't see Bi Sheng, so he asked, "Master Bi didn't come today?"
"Old Bi isn't feeling well today so he didn't come." Sima Youyue said, "Bring us to the private room from last time."
"Alright, please follow me!"
The steward welcomed them in. When the people in the Blood Arena saw them, they started whispering to each other.
When they reached the room, Little Seven chased the manager out and said to Sima Youyue, "Thousand Resonance, you didn't get recognized when you changed into Yue Yue."
"I have a contract with Yue Yue so I can change into her appearance and aura." Thousand Resonance said, "If I change into someone else, I can only change my appearance but my aura can't fool others."
"I hope nothing will happen to Boss and the rest." Feng Kai said worriedly.
"With the Old Dragon King around, there won't be a problem." Little Seven said, "Tonight, we'll have to recruit people for Yue Yue. Hehe, I wonder how many people will be willing to come up and let me beat them up tonight … "
At the same time, three figures dashed out of Bi Sheng's inn and headed towards the City Lord's residence.
Very quickly, they stopped outside the City Lord's residence.
Bi Sheng looked at the moon above his head and said, "There's two more days until the red moon."
"The moon is going to be full soon." Sima Youyue raised her head and looked at the moon, "I hope tonight's operation will be fruitful. Godfather, we'll have to trouble you tonight. "
"It's just to cover your aura, it's not a problem." Wu La Mai said.
"Then let's sneak into the City Lord's residence and take a look at the situation inside."
Wu La Mai covered their aura and came to a more remote corner of the City Lord's residence and flew in together.
Once they entered, they saw a few patrolling guards coming over so they quickly hid in the shadows and waited for those people to leave before coming out.
"Over there."
The Blood Demon Tree wasn't very tall but it was still visible. Following the direction, they avoided the patrolling guards.
Very quickly, they reached the courtyard where Youyue came to drink tea in the day.
