The preparations for the competition finally stabilized temporarily. After a busy whole day, Mou Xuan and Shen Yao decided to find a quiet place to take a short rest.
The two chose a corner of the competition venue, leaned against the wall, and enjoyed the rare tranquility.
As night falls, the dim lights cast mottled shadows in the corners.
Chen Yao leaned gently against the wall, looking at Mou Xuan tenderly.
Her heart was filled with gratitude. Over the past period of time, it was Mou Xuan's determination and responsibility that helped them overcome one difficulty after another.
"Thank you, Mou Xuan." Chen Yao's voice was soft, with a gentle tremor.
Mou Xuan turned his head and met Chen Yao's bright eyes.
He smiled slightly and reached out to gently hold her hand.
At that moment, the ambiguous atmosphere between the two of them spread, as if the whole world had stopped.
"Silly boy, we are together. Your business is my business." Mou Xuan's voice was warm and firm, as if it could dispel all the haze.
Shen Yao's heartbeat quickened and her cheeks flushed slightly.
She nodded slightly, her eyes gleaming with admiration.
The two of them just sat there quietly, enjoying each other's company.
At this moment, the figure of the competition organizer suddenly appeared in their sight. She hurried over and interrupted this warm moment.
"Mou Xuan, Chen Yao, something has happened." The organizer of the competition had a hint of nervousness on her face. She took a breath and continued, "Several contestants reported that they have received some strange letters recently. The content of the letters is somewhat threatening, and it seems that they want them to withdraw from the competition."
Mou Xuan's brows frowned slightly, and his eyes became sharp in an instant.
He stood up quickly and gently let go of Chen Yao's hand.
"This is indeed the method used by an outside interferer." Mou Xuan said with a hint of coldness in his tone, "He won't give up so easily."
Chen Yao also stood up, her eyes were firm and she showed no sign of retreat.
"I'll help you. We need to ensure the safety of the contestants."
Mou Xuan nodded, a sneer on his face.
"Okay, let's act together. Notify all participating members to strengthen their vigilance and arrange some secret sentries to prevent sudden attacks from outside interferers."
The organizer of the competition saluted and then hurried away to carry out Mou Xuan's instructions.
Mou Xuan and Shen Yao quickly took action. They divided the work and cooperated to ensure that every detail was handled properly.
At the same time, external interferers hid in dark corners, observing the alliance's every move through an old communication device.
There was an evil smile on his lips and a cunning light in his eyes.
"The game has just begun. Do you think you can catch me like this? Too naive." The voice of the external interferer was low and cold. He immediately contacted some other small forces and prepared to launch a final raid on the day of the competition.
"Unite and deal them a fatal blow when they are unprepared." The plan of the external interferer has begun to be implemented. He did not hesitate to give orders to his subordinates, and his tone was full of unquestionable decisiveness.
Although Mou Xuan and Shen Yao noticed some abnormalities, they knew that the real challenge was still ahead.
The day of the competition is destined not to be peaceful.
Mou Xuan held Chen Yao's hand tightly, "No matter what happens, we must persevere."
Chen Yao nodded firmly, and the two figures appeared more determined and unshakable in the night.
And the threats hidden in the dark seem to be waiting for their arrival.
Just as they were about to engage in a new round of battle, Mou Xuan suddenly stopped, turned around and looked at Chen Yao, with a resolute light flashing in his eyes.
"Let's go, let's meet new challenges together."
The two walked side by side with firm steps, facing the unknown future, moving forward step by step.
Mou Xuan always felt that his eyelids were twitching recently, and he was afraid that something big was about to happen.
He rubbed his brows and said to Chen Yao beside him: "I always feel something is wrong recently, as if I am being stared at by something unclean."
Chen Yao chuckled and rolled her eyes at him: "You've read too many novels, haven't you? And they're all 'dirty stuff'. If I were to ask you, you're too tired. You keep a tense face all day long. Relax a little!" As she spoke, she stretched out her slender fingers and gently pinched Mou Xuan's shoulders.
"Hiss...comfortable!" Mou Xuan squinted his eyes in enjoyment, but he did not relax his vigilance.
He always felt that the shady old Fu must be planning something bad.
"No, I have to check it out." Mou Xuan stood up suddenly, scaring Chen Yao.
"What are you checking? The most important thing right now is preparations for the competition."
"Don't worry, there will be no delay." Mou Xuan waved his hand, turned and walked towards the control room.
He called up the alliance's surveillance video and carefully reviewed it frame by frame, not missing any clues.
Time passed minute by minute, and Mou Xuan's eyes were bloodshot.
Suddenly, a vague figure caught his attention.
The man sneaked into the contestants' rest area and seemed to be installing something secretly.
"There is something fishy!" Mou Xuan's eyes narrowed, and he immediately notified Chen Yao: "Yaoyao, go and notify the Zhuo contestants and ask them to evacuate the rest area immediately. There is a bomb!"
When Chen Yao heard this, her face turned pale and she rushed out immediately. However, she was still a step too late.
"boom!"
There was a deafening bang, and the entire league trembled.
"Oh no, we've fallen into a trap!" Mou Xuan's face changed drastically. He immediately rushed out of the control room and ran towards the direction of the explosion.
