Inside the Mechanized City, no one noticed the infiltrated enemy. It wasn't until Master Ban was ambushed and severely injured, the defensive blueprints for the Mechanized City were lost, and Master Xu, also in a crucial position within the city—by the central pool—was ambushed and seriously injured, the pool itself poisoned. However, Master Xu did see his attacker: Gai Nie.
Gao Jianli believed that Gai Nie and an enemy skilled in disguise were working together to sabotage the Mechanized City from within. Although he did not fight Gai Nie due to Duanmu Rong's intervention, he imprisoned Gai Nie in the stone chamber.
"You all suspect Uncle, why don't you suspect Wang Han? He even has the waist token of the First Emperor Ying Zheng, why don't you suspect him?" Tianming shouted indignantly at the entrance of the stone chamber where Gai Nie was imprisoned, knowing that Uncle had been suspected and imprisoned.
"..." Everyone fell silent upon hearing this. Duanmu Rong knew how Wang Han had entered the Mechanized City, and Gao Jianli and the other knew Wang Han's strength; there was no need for Wang Han to complicate matters further.
“With his strength, he doesn’t need to do this at all,” Gao Jianli said, turning to leave. Before leaving, he said to Tianming, “Tianming, let me give you a piece of advice: don’t provoke that Wang Han. He won’t show any mercy just because you’re a child or because you know him.”
"My uncle is no pushover either, he's much more powerful than that Wang Han..." Tianming shouted angrily, but before he could finish speaking, Xue Nu pressed Tianming's pressure points, rendering him unable to move or speak.
"Lock this child in the stone chamber next door and let him be quiet for a while. The pressure points will be released in two hours," Xue Nu instructed the Mo family disciple beside her.
"yes."

The next morning, as the sun rose, its rays were as red as blood.
"The sunrise is so red today. I haven't seen a sunrise like this in a long time." In his room, Wang Han, waking up, looked out the window at the rising sun and sighed, "I remember the last time I saw a sunrise like this, I killed quite a few people. It seems the Mo Family's fortified city fell this morning. It's time to meet Wei Zhuang and the others, as well as the Yin Yang School and other members of the Hundred Schools of Thought who rebelled against the Qin Dynasty. Maybe we can get some useful information from them. What exactly happened ten years ago? Who is that person they're talking about? Why are Gao Jianli and Xue Nu so convinced that person is me?"

Inside the Mo Family's Mechanized City, as the morning sun shone on the water, a faint purple mist, almost imperceptible to the naked eye, began to evaporate from the water throughout the city. Chi Lian's poison, Jiu Yu Qian Ye, also began to take effect under the sunlight, and one Mo Family disciple after another fell as the invisible purple poisonous mist spread.
"Tap tap tap..." At one of the entrances to the Mechanized City, a large number of armored Qin soldiers, who had taken the antidote in advance, rushed into the Mo Family Mechanized City under the leadership of Wei Zhuang and others. They quickly occupied the entire Mechanized City, and the remaining Mo Family members could only be gradually forced back to the defensive core of the Mo Family Mechanized City, the Mo Core.
——————————————
In the forbidden area of the Mo family, Duanmu Rong brought Tianming, Shaoyu, and Yue'er here. Now, the entire Mo family's mechanical city has been almost occupied by the Qin army and Wei Zhuang's people, and almost everywhere is filled with terrifying poison gas. This is one of the few places that the Qin army cannot easily conquer and is free of poison gas. Therefore, Duanmu Rong plans to let the three of them escape from here.
Behind Duanmu Rong and her three companions, Yin Fu, who had been following them all along, finally decided to make his move when he saw Tianming and his two companions enter the Mo family's forbidden area.
Behind Hidden Bat, Kuina, who had also followed closely, was also preparing to make her move. She was very curious about the Mo family's forbidden area; perhaps she could find the answers that had puzzled Wang Han—what exactly had happened ten years ago? She hadn't been able to enter last time, and she wouldn't let this opportunity slip by.
Seeing Shao Yu and his two companions about to enter the forbidden area of the Mo family, Yin Fu moved and rushed out from his hiding place towards Duanmu Rong, who had her back to him.
"Sister Rong, be careful, there are enemies behind us!" Yue'er exclaimed when she saw the Hidden Bat rushing out.
Duanmu Rong turned around in horror, instinctively flicking out silver needles and shooting them at the Hidden Bat.
"Shave." The next moment, Kuina also rushed out from her hiding place at lightning speed, her hand already on the hilt of the knife at her waist, chasing after the Hidden Bat that was rushing towards Duanmu Rong. Her speed was as fast as lightning, leaving a series of afterimages in the air.
"Such speed." Facing the silver needles shot by Duanmu Rong, Yin Fu dodged at lightning speed, but also noticed that Guina was rushing towards him from behind and was about to reach him.
Compared to Duanmu Rong, the faster and closer Guina posed a greater danger to him.
Facing Kuina, who was almost upon him, the Hidden Bat flipped in the air, dodging the silver needles shot by Duanmu Rong, and charged towards Kuina, its steel claws aimed directly at her neck.
"One-Sword Style, Flash." In the next moment, Kuina and Hidden Bat passed each other, and Kuina slowly sheathed her sword.
"What a fast blade!" Hidden Bat stared in disbelief at the broken steel claw in his hand as his body slowly split in two.
"Amazing!" Shao Yu, Tian Ming, and the other two stared wide-eyed. They had underestimated Kuina; they hadn't even seen the moment she drew her sword.
"Guina, you've come at just the right time. The Mo Family's forbidden area is fraught with danger and many traps. You are the strongest, so please protect Yue'er and the other two." Duanmu Rong quickly said upon seeing Guina. However, she was truly worried about Shao Yu and the others entering the Mo Family's forbidden area. With the stronger Guina by her side, she could feel more at ease, at least confirming that Wang Han and Guina were not Ying Zheng's accomplices.
"I will take good care of them," Guina nodded and followed Shaoyu and the other two into the forbidden area of the Mo family.

In the forest outside the Mo Family's mechanical city, Wang Han silently appeared in front of a woman in red and a girl in purple, blocking their path.
"Who are you?" Upon seeing Wang Han appear like a ghost, the woman in red and the woman in purple immediately formed hand seals, preparing for battle and becoming wary.
"The Grand Master of Fate and the Junior Master of Fate of the Yin-Yang School," Wang Han said, looking at the two men. "I have something to ask you."
"Who exactly are you?" the High Priestess demanded.
"Who I am is not important. What's important is whether you have the intelligence I need," Wang Han said, his eyes turning bloodshot, with three black tomoe swirling in them.
Hypnosis.
Seeing Wang Han's suddenly reddened gaze, Da Siming was momentarily dazed. She quickly bit her tongue, using the pain to pull herself out of her daze, and dared not look into Wang Han's eyes again. At the same time, she reached out and placed her hand on Shao Siming, channeling her inner energy to pull her out of the hypnosis.
