Ning Yu, supporting Mu Xue's hand, slowly rose to his feet, his sharp gaze sweeping towards the cave entrance. The sound of his heartbeat echoed in the silent cave, as if foreshadowing an impending fierce battle.

"Hey, isn't this Boss Ning? What happened to you?" A mocking voice came from the cave entrance, carrying undisguised malice.

The newcomer was none other than Ning Yu's formidable enemy from before—One-Eyed Dragon. Behind him followed a dozen tall, burly men, each with a fierce expression, clearly not to be trifled with. One-Eyed Dragon swaggered into the cave, a glint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes as he looked at Ning Yu's pale face and slightly trembling body.

"Looks like my plan was a success. You wasted so many of your superpowers." The one-eyed man sneered. "What? Regretting it now? Regretting not listening to me obediently?"

Ning Yu took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing his surging blood and qi. He looked coldly at the one-eyed man and said, word by word, "What exactly do you want?"

"What do I want to do?" The one-eyed man laughed loudly, as if he had heard a funny joke. His laughter was full of contempt and mockery. "Who do you think you are? Do you think you are worthy of knowing my plans?"

His smile vanished, his eyes turning cold and venomous: "Let me tell you the truth, this was all a setup from the very beginning. Those rumors about the mysterious source of power were deliberately spread by us to lure you in!"

The one-eyed man approached Ning Yu step by step, his tone chilling: "We knew all along that you wanted to gain greater power, and we knew you wouldn't let any opportunity slip by. So, we set up this trap to lure you into our snare!"

Ning Yu clenched his fists, his eyes burning with fury. He finally understood that from the moment the rumors began, he had been stepping into a carefully laid trap by his enemy. And all of this was to prevent him from obtaining the mysterious source of power, to prevent him from becoming stronger!

"You think this will stop me?" Ning Yu's voice was deep and powerful. "Let me tell you, I will get it, and no one can stop me!"

"Is that so? In your current state?" The one-eyed man looked at Ning Yu as if he were already dead, a cruel smile curling at the corner of his mouth. "You are severely injured, with less than one-tenth of your strength remaining. What do you have to fight me with?"

He clapped his hands, and the burly men behind him immediately surrounded Ning Yu and Mu Xue, their eyes gleaming with greed and ferocity.

"Ning Yu, you have nowhere to run." The one-eyed man grinned maliciously, slowly raising his right hand. "Now, let me send you to your death!"

He suddenly swung his arm down...

The one-eyed man's arm swung down, as if opening the gates of hell. A dozen burly men launched their attack simultaneously, their multicolored supernatural energy weaving a web of death within the narrow cave, sweeping towards Ning Yu with earth-shattering power.

Ning Yu was filled with rage, but he had no choice but to face reality. He was in extremely poor condition. The backlash from the mysterious power had not yet subsided, and he had also exhausted a lot of his supernatural power to save Mu Xue. At this moment, he was like a trapped beast driven to the brink by a hunter, struggling to survive only by relying on his instincts.

"boom!"

A pillar of fire whistled past Ning Yu's ear, the scorching heat instantly singing the stray hairs on his forehead. He didn't have time to think; his body instinctively rolled to the side, barely dodging a sharp wind blade.

"Bang!"

A huge rock fell from the sky, crashing heavily to the spot where he had just been standing, sending debris flying everywhere. Ning Yu's heart skipped a beat; if he had reacted even a fraction slower, he would have been smashed into a pulp by now.

The enemy's attacks poured down like a storm, and Ning Yu dodged left and right in the confined space, looking utterly disheveled. He already had many wounds on his body, and now, affected by the various supernatural attacks, his clothes were stained with blood, a shocking sight.

"Hahaha, Boss Ning, just accept your fate!" One-Eyed Dragon stood aside, looking at Ning Yu's disheveled appearance, and laughed triumphantly. "Weren't you supposed to be strong? How come you look like a stray dog ​​now?"

Ning Yu ignored them, his eyes fixed on every enemy who attacked him, his mind racing, searching for any opportunity to retaliate. He noticed that while these people were all very strong, their teamwork was not very smooth, and there were occasional openings.

However, in his current state, it was virtually impossible for him to exploit these weaknesses. Each time he dodged an attack, he exhausted almost all his strength, let alone put together an effective counterattack.

Another loud bang! Ning Yu couldn't dodge in time and was hit by a powerful shockwave. He was sent flying like a kite with a broken string and crashed heavily into the rock wall.

"puff!"

Ning Yu coughed up a mouthful of blood, and his vision blurred. He knew he had reached his limit; if this continued, he would surely die!

"Am I really going to die here?" A deep sense of powerlessness welled up in Ning Yu's heart. He was unwilling to accept this, he didn't want to die, and he didn't want Mu Xue to fall into the hands of these people.

"No, I must live!" A resolute light flashed in Ning Yu's eyes. He struggled to stand up, but found that his body was no longer under his control.

"Hahaha, it's over!" The one-eyed man grinned maliciously as he walked towards Ning Yu, his eyes flashing with cruel light. "Die!"

Just then, a cold voice suddenly rang out in the cave:

"Who said he's going to die?"

The cold voice echoed through the cave, but no one answered. The one-eyed man's laughter stopped abruptly, and he and the others looked around warily, trying to find the source of the sound.

"Who is it? Get out here!" the one-eyed man roared, but the only response he received was the sound of water dripping from the cave ceiling.
