Chapter 20 Blood Shadow Assault

After a long period of meticulous planning, the Blood Shadow Alliance finally chose a dark and windy night to launch a surprise attack on the Spirit Harmony Merchant Guild. The night was like a huge black curtain, heavily pressing down on the Spirit Ruins Market, with occasional wisps of cold wind blowing by.

A large group of Blood Shadow Alliance members, dressed in specially made black outfits, stealthily infiltrated the Spirit Ruins Market like a group of well-trained ghosts. Their faces were covered with black cloth, revealing only pairs of cold and greedy eyes. They moved without making a sound, as if they had become one with the darkness.

Based on the information gathered during their preliminary reconnaissance, they swiftly and precisely approached the headquarters and various shops of the Linghe Chamber of Commerce. Several defensive checkpoints surrounding the Linghe Chamber of Commerce were breached one after another by the Blood Shadow Alliance members' stealthy infiltration. The Chamber of Commerce's security personnel on patrol were swiftly and silently eliminated by the Blood Shadow Alliance members before they could even raise an alarm, as if they were nothing more than insignificant ants.

As the Blood Shadow Alliance surged towards the headquarters of the Linghe Merchant Guild, the carefully constructed defensive magic within the guild finally detected the anomaly. In an instant, a sharp, piercing alarm ripped through the silent night sky, echoing above the Lingxu Market like the roar of death.

The members of the Linghe Chamber of Commerce were startled awake by the sudden alarm. Although shocked, they had long since developed a calm and collected demeanor under Lin Yang's leadership. They quickly jumped out of bed, expertly grabbed their weapons, and, following their usual drills, rushed to their respective defensive positions.

Upon hearing the alarm, Lin Yang practically burst out of his room instantly. His expression was grave, his eyes sharp as he quickly scanned his surroundings, using his keen senses to instantly assess the enemy's size and approximate direction of attack. While loudly directing the guild members to take up defensive positions, he also unhesitatingly used the spatial power of the falling coins to rapidly distribute powerful magical artifacts and precious pills capable of enhancing strength to the guild's core members.

"Don't panic, everyone! Follow the drills and hold your posts! Our Linghe Chamber of Commerce is not afraid of any enemy!" Lin Yang's voice was firm and powerful, resounding like a bell, injecting a strong boost of confidence into the tense atmosphere of the Chamber of Commerce members and instantly calming their somewhat panicked hearts.

Blood Shadow, the leader of the Blood Shadow Alliance, was somewhat surprised by the swift response of the Spirit Harmony Chamber of Commerce. However, confident in the strength of the Blood Shadow Alliance and the thoroughness of its preparations for the attack, he had no intention of giving up. With a wave of his hand, as if issuing a general command to attack, the members of the Blood Shadow Alliance surged towards the headquarters of the Spirit Harmony Chamber of Commerce like hungry wolves pouncing on their prey.

A fierce battle instantly erupted between the two sides. Members of the Linghe Merchant Guild, relying on their sturdy fortifications and the powerful magical artifacts meticulously crafted by the guild's artificers, tenaciously resisted the Blood Shadow Alliance's frenzied attacks. These defensive artifacts proved invaluable; shields shimmering with spiritual energy acted like impregnable fortresses, blocking wave after wave of attacks from the Blood Shadow Alliance. Simultaneously, guild members unleashed counter-attack spells and hidden weapons, raining down upon the enemy. In an instant, shouts of battle and the clash of spells mingled together, plunging the entire Linghe Merchant Guild into a chaotic melee.

However, the Blood Shadow Alliance was numerous, and each member was a ruthless character who had fought their way through countless bloody battles; their strength was not to be underestimated. They attacked the Spirit Harmony Merchant Guild's defenses like a tidal wave, relentlessly pushing forward, attempting to break through the lines and storm into the guild to plunder its wealth. Blood Shadow himself took action, gripping a longsword that exuded a strange, bloody aura. Each strike carried the power to cleave mountains and shatter rocks; the spiritual energy shield trembled violently under his attacks, teetering on the brink of collapse.

Lin Yang knew that if he didn't defeat Blood Shadow quickly, the Spirit Harmony Chamber of Commerce's defense system would collapse rapidly once Blood Shadow broke through the defenses, with unimaginable consequences. He took a deep breath and continuously drew out the power of the mysterious light points in the space containing the fallen coins, perfectly merging it with his own spiritual power. In an instant, a powerful and mysterious aura erupted from his body, as if he were enveloped in a layer of light.

Holding his sword, Lin Yang's eyes were firm and sharp, like a hawk poised to pounce, as he charged towards the Blood Shadow. "You despicable bastard, how dare you raid my Linghe Merchant Guild! Today is your death day!" Lin Yang's voice was filled with anger and determination. With his shout, his sword moved like lightning, instantly transforming into streaks of sharp light that pierced towards the Blood Shadow.

Blood Shadow sneered, a hint of disdain in his eyes. Undeterred, he brandished his longsword, meeting Lin Yang's attack with equal ferocity. Their spiritual energies collided, erupting in a dazzling light, like two meteors crashing together in the night sky. The surrounding air seemed to boil, emitting a deafening buzz, and powerful fluctuations of spiritual energy spread outwards, shattering nearby objects and buildings.

Seeing Lin Yang's bravery, the other members of the Linghe Chamber of Commerce were greatly inspired. They gritted their teeth, mustered their courage, and unleashed even greater power, intensifying their counterattack. In an instant, the entire Linghe Chamber of Commerce was filled with the sounds of battle. This sudden attack plunged the Chamber of Commerce into an unprecedented crisis. Whether Lin Yang and the Chamber members could hold their ground and repel the Blood Shadow Alliance's attack remained uncertain, and the outcome of this battle would determine the future of the Linghe Chamber of Commerce.
