If I'm not mistaken, these black-clad swordsmen should be the minions of Gui Yu clan scattered around the valley, or even all over Anyun. They received the news of the enemy attack and rushed back to Broken Soul Valley to help.

Mu Hanyan secretly felt lucky that Ye Lanxun was there, otherwise if they tried to force their way through the valley entrance, it would take a lot of effort. Saving people is like putting out a fire, and every moment of delay would put Yun Bo in more danger.

From deep within the courtyard, there were a few sounds of metal clashing, and then silence returned.

Mu Hanyan raised her eyebrows. The sounds of these sword strikes clearly showed a lack of strength. Yun Bo was either at the end of his strength and exhausted, or he had internal injuries and barely had the strength to fight again.

Ye Lanxuan also heard it, and he accelerated forward with Mu Hanyan and others.

…

Deep in the courtyard, in front of an ancient ancestral hall, four old men in black robes were standing in a corner, surrounding an old man in a grey robe and a young man in the middle. Next to them, three other old men in black robes, also dressed in the same way, had fallen in a pool of blood, apparently dead.

The old man surrounded by them stood proudly with a long sword in his hand, his white beard fluttering and his aura so majestic that people dared not look directly at him. However, judging from the rapid rise and fall of his chest, it was obvious that he was seriously injured.

The young man he protected behind him was more seriously injured than him. There were dozens of sword wounds on his body that were deep enough to see the bone. Blood was dripping onto the ground one after another. However, he still leaned on the ground with his sword, his expression was firm, and there was no sign of fear at all.

These two people were Yun Bo and Mu Sha, who were trapped in the Valley of Broken Souls in order to save Mu Nan and Yu Qingwan.

"I didn't expect that you are from the Mu family in the capital. If I'm not mistaken, you are the shadow guard beside Mu Beichen, right?" The old man in the front said to Yun Bo with a grim smile on his face.

Like the middle-aged man who had fought with Mu Hanyan before, these black-robed old men also emitted a green light, and their thin figures were like ghosts swimming in the Nine Netherworld River.

"I also didn't expect that after more than 100,000 years of destruction, the Guiyu clan still has a chance to revive." Yun Bo also said indifferently.

"I originally wanted to give you a way out, but unfortunately, you know too much." The old man stepped forward with a strong murderous intent on his face.

"Mu Sha, let's go!" Yun Bo said to Mu Sha in a deep voice. Since his identity had been discovered by Gui Yu, there was no need for him to hide it any longer.

"Master, I can't leave. You go." Mu Sha said with a wry smile.

"Mu Sha, have you forgotten what I taught you? Never give up until the last moment." Yun Bo said sternly.

"Master, I can't drag you down anymore." Mu Sha raised his head and shook it. The fatigue in his eyes dissipated a little, and a gleam of brilliance appeared again. He actually gathered up his last breath and rushed towards the old man in black robe.

Judging from the force of the sword, it was clearly a slash to the death. Unfortunately, with his current severe injuries, there was no chance of even a slash. It wasn't so much a desperate attempt as it was a self-destruction, to free Yun Bo from worry and give him a chance to escape.

"Mu Sha!" Yun Bo's heart was broken when he understood Mu Sha's intention, and he also rushed forward with a sword in his hand.

"Clang, clang, clang..." Sparks flew and metal clashed. Yun Bo and Mu Sha were forced to retreat several steps again and were still surrounded by four old men in black robes.

Their strength was obviously inferior to Yun Bo's. None of them had reached the realm of Sword Saint, not even Grand Sword Master. They were all at the ninth level of Sword Master, but their attack and defense were coordinated very tacitly. Moreover, the exquisiteness of their swordsmanship and the strangeness of their body movements far surpassed those of masters of the same level, and were slightly better than ordinary Sword Saints.

Although Yun Bo was a master at the level of Sword Saint, he was seriously injured when he killed the other three black-robed old men to rescue Mu Sha. He was unable to suppress them with his cultivation and was entangled by them and unable to escape.

Noisy footsteps were heard, and nearly a hundred black-clothed swordsmen retreated back to the house from the direction of the valley entrance. Although their strength was far inferior to those black-robed old men, Yun Bo was already at the end of his strength at this time, and it was already extremely difficult for him to deal with these black-robed old men. The arrival of these black-clothed swordsmen was like adding insult to injury.

"Master, please leave quickly." Seeing that the situation was becoming more and more critical, Mu Sha became anxious and shouted to Yun Bo.

"Do you really think you can get away?" As soon as the words fell, the leading black-robed elder sneered contemptuously, "How dare a mere Mu family ruin our Gui Yu clan's plans? Do you really think the Mu family today is the same Mu family from ten thousand years ago? Once the head of the family wakes up, we'll be the first to wipe out your Mu family!"

After hearing his words, Yun Bo and Mu Sha looked towards the ancestral hall behind them at the same time, their expressions becoming extremely solemn.

As if to confirm their words, the moment the black-robed old man finished speaking, the ancestral hall behind them began to shake violently, and a gloomy and terrifying aura faintly emanated from it.

"The head of the family is about to wake up!" An old man in a black robe cheered excitedly.

"After waiting for tens of thousands of years, our ancestors finally did not abandon our Gui Yu lineage!" Another old man was so excited that his eyes were filled with tears.

"Not good!" Yun Bo and Mu Sha's faces changed at the same time.

In fact, they didn't know what secrets the head of the Gui Yu family was hiding, why he was sleeping, or what his awakening meant. But as long as they felt the eerie and terrifying atmosphere in the ancestral hall, they knew how powerful the head of the Gui Yu family would be once he woke up. If they guessed correctly, the head of the Gui Yu family must have used some evil magic to fall into a deep sleep, and when he woke up, his evil magic would be perfected.

Their identities had been exposed, and the Mu family and the Guiyu clan had formed a mortal feud. If the head of the Guiyu clan woke up, the Mu family would be the first to suffer. The ancestral hall was shaking more and more violently, and the eerie and terrifying aura was growing stronger. They did not believe the other party's words were nonsense.

The two men looked at each other and saw the determination in each other's eyes. Without saying another word, they both gave up the idea of ​​escaping and rushed towards the ancestral hall.

While the head of the Gui Yu family has not yet woken up, now is the best opportunity to get rid of him. Only by getting rid of him can the Mu family be kept safe.

As the death warriors trained by the Mu family since childhood, they know their mission. It is their only duty to eliminate hidden dangers for the Mu family and protect the safety of the main family. Even if they sacrifice their lives for this, it is their honor.

Seeing Yun Bo and Mu Sha's actions, several old men in black robes were slightly surprised, but they soon understood their intentions, and a cold smile appeared on their faces again.

With a flash of their bodies, three of them attacked Yun Bo, and the other attacked Mu Sha.
