Throughout this process, Xu Yuehuai demonstrated her steadfastness and courage. Undeterred by power or threats, she used her wisdom and courage to approach the truth step by step.
After several days of patient searching, Xu Yuehuai finally uncovered the secret behind these men in black.
They had all come into contact with a mysterious organization, which was like a giant beast hidden in the darkness, silently controlling everything.
Every night, the men in black would secretly leave their homes and head to the organization's secret hideout to communicate and report to its members.
Xu Yuehuai was well aware of the importance of this mysterious organization, and she understood that this organization was inextricably linked to the deaths of the men in black.
She decided to investigate further and uncover the true nature of this organization. Therefore, she immediately summoned Tie Xiong and Yan Qing, preparing to head to the vicinity of the capital to find the organization's secret stronghold.
After a long and arduous journey, the three finally arrived at a remote town near the capital.
They were on the second floor of the inn, with a bustling street outside the window, where various sounds mingled together, creating a vivid picture.
Xu Yuehuai sat by the window, her eyes sharp, constantly watching the slightest movement on the street. Tie Xiong and Yan Qing sat on either side of her, their expressions different but all revealing a hint of solemnity.
Xu Yuehua tapped lightly on the table, pondering her next move. She knew the organization's power and the dangers of this mission, but her sense of justice made her determined to go.
She looked up at Tie Xiong and Yan Qing, a resolute glint in her eyes: "We must proceed with caution. This organization is exceptionally cunning; we cannot alert them."
Tie Xiong nodded. He was straightforward by nature, but he also seemed unusually cautious at this moment: "I understand. We need to think this through carefully."
Yan Qing remained silent, her eyes revealing a calm and alertness, like a cheetah poised to strike.
After discussing it for a long time, the three decided to split up and gather information from various angles.
Xu Yuehuai was responsible for observing the comings and goings and conversations of the people in the inn, trying to find clues; Tie Xiong was responsible for wandering around the town to see if he could find anything unusual; Yan Qing was hidden in the shadows, just in case.
As night fell, the inn gradually quieted down. Xu Yuehuai sat by the window, her eyes fixed on the lobby below. She noticed that whenever someone mentioned the mysterious organization, the expressions of those around her would become tense and wary, as if the topic were taboo.
A thought struck Xu Yuehuai, and she decided to go downstairs herself to find out what was going on. She tiptoed to the top of the stairs and cautiously peeked out. There were only a few guests talking quietly in the lobby downstairs. Xu Yuehuai pricked up her ears, trying to hear their conversation.
Just then, a deep voice caught her attention: "Have you heard? That mysterious organization has become active again recently. They say they have a secret base in town."
Xu Yuehuai's heart skipped a beat. She immediately focused her attention, trying to glean more information from the voice. But just then, a series of hurried footsteps broke her concentration. She quickly looked up and saw a figure running rapidly towards her. Xu Yuehuai's heart tightened, and she quickly slipped into the next room.
The door slammed shut, and Xu Yuehuai's heart raced. She pressed herself against the door, her ear against the crack, trying to hear anything outside. But all was silent, as if nothing had happened.
Xu Yuehuai was filled with doubts. She didn't know if the figure she had just seen had noticed her.
She took a deep breath and decided to leave the room temporarily to meet up with the other two. She gently opened the door and quietly stepped out. But just as she was about to leave the room, she suddenly felt a strong killing intent coming from behind.
Xu Yuehuai's heart skipped a beat. She quickly turned around and saw a man in black standing behind her, holding a gleaming dagger. Xu Yuehuai's heart tightened, but she didn't panic. Instead, she swiftly drew her longsword and engaged the man in black in a fierce battle.
The two figures moved swiftly through the room, their swords flashing, exuding a murderous aura. Although Xu Yuehuai was highly skilled in martial arts, she felt a sense of pressure facing the attack from the man in black. She knew that this man in black was a master from that mysterious organization, and she had to be careful.
After a fierce battle, Xu Yuehuai finally repelled the man in black. Panting heavily, she felt a surge of excitement. She knew the investigation had made significant progress, and the appearance of this man in black further convinced her of the existence of this mysterious organization.
Xu Yuehuai quickly left the room and found Tie Xiong and Yan Qing. She told them what had just happened and decided to intensify the investigation to find the secret base of this mysterious organization as soon as possible.
After discussing for a long time, the three decided to split up and gather information from various angles. Xu Yuehuai decided to stay at the inn to observe the situation and look for more clues.
Over the next few days, Xu Yuehuai kept a close eye on her surroundings from inside the inn. She discovered that the people of this small town seemed to have the mysterious organization under their control.
Xu Yuehuai's determination to expose the true nature of this organization has become even stronger.
As night fell, Xu Yuehuai's room was brightly lit. She sat at the table, her brow furrowed, seemingly pondering some important matter. Tie Xiong and Yan Qing sat on either side of her, their expressions equally grave; clearly, they too sensed the unusual atmosphere in this small town.
Xu Yuehuai took a deep breath and slowly said, "Tie Xiong, Yan Qing, I have a bad feeling. This town may very well have been completely taken over by that mysterious organization." Her words carried an undeniable firmness.
Tie Xiong and Yan Qing exchanged a glance, both seeing surprise in each other's eyes. Tie Xiong frowned and said, "If that's the case, then our situation is quite dangerous. We must find their base as soon as possible and figure out their purpose."
Yan Qing nodded in agreement: "That's right, we can't let their conspiracy succeed. However, we've been searching the town for so long, but we still haven't found any clues." Her voice carried a hint of helplessness and frustration.
Xu Yuehuai was silent for a moment, then looked up at the two of them: "We cannot give up. For the safety of the Great Zhou, we must persevere. Perhaps our previous investigation was misguided, or perhaps they have already noticed our actions and strengthened their defenses."
Tie Xiong nodded: "The princess is right. We can't give up because of a little setback. We should re-examine the clues and come up with a new plan."
Yan Qing also rallied his spirits: "That's right, we can't let them succeed. Your Highness, do you have any new ideas?"
