Xu Yuehuai, Xia Sen, and Li Tong cautiously sneaked in. They walked through dimly lit corridors, taking each step with extreme care, afraid of alerting the guards.
The walls of the corridor are covered with mottled marks, as if telling the story of the place's past vicissitudes and glory.
Finally, they arrived at a spacious hall. In the center of the hall, a middle-aged man dressed in a black robe sat quietly, his eyes cold and fierce, as if he could see through all pretenses.
"You've finally arrived." The middle-aged man's voice was cold and hoarse, as if it came from hell.
Xu Yuehuai and Xia Sen exchanged a glance, both seeing unwavering determination in each other's eyes. They knew that what followed would be a life-or-death battle.
"We're here to expose your true colors!" Xu Yuehua shouted, her voice echoing in the empty hall.
"Bang bang bang!"
The middle-aged man sneered, stood up, and a powerful aura emanated from him.
"Hmm!"
Xu Yuehuai and Xia Sen felt an immense pressure pressing down on them, making it almost impossible for them to breathe.
Just then, Li Tong suddenly rushed to their side. He brandished his long sword, unleashing sharp flashes of light that clashed with the middle-aged man's aura.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Xu Yuehuai and Xia Sen broke free from the middle-aged man's control, and the three of them launched a fierce attack on him together.
The battle was extremely fierce, with sword light and shadows intertwined, and a heavy killing intent permeating the air.
The middle-aged man was far stronger than them, but he didn't seem to intend to entangle with them for long. He kept swinging his weapon, launching fierce attacks in an attempt to force them back.
However, Xu Yuehuai, Xia Sen, and Li Tong did not give up.
They tried their best to find a weakness in the middle-aged man!
"Go! Now!"
After a fierce battle, they finally found an opportunity, and the three of them joined forces to launch a powerful attack, knocking the middle-aged man to the ground.
The middle-aged man lay on the ground, breathing weakly.
Xu Yuehuai immediately stepped forward and subdued him to prevent him from escaping again. She took a small booklet from the middle-aged man's arms, opened it, and found that it contained all the secrets and plans of the "deceased".
She read the booklet carefully, her shock growing stronger. She finally understood why Qi Guze had betrayed Dongsang Kingdom, and how much of a threat this organization posed to the four kingdoms.
She decided to take these secrets back and tell Bai Yu and other countries. She wanted everyone to know about the organization's existence so they could join forces to fight this threat.
Looking into Xu Yuehuai's determined eyes, Li Tong couldn't help but feel admiration for her. He knew that Xu Yuehuai was a brave and strong person, and she would definitely strive for peace among the four countries.
They left the ruins with the middle-aged man and the pamphlet, and returned to the camp.
Qi Guze had almost fully recovered, and after hearing about their experiences, he was filled with remorse. He apologized to Xu Yuehuai and Xia Sen, promising that he would never listen to those people again and that he would dedicate himself to the peace of the four nations.
Looking into Qi Guze's sincere eyes, Xu Yuehuai and Xia Sen's resentment slowly dissipated. They knew that everyone makes mistakes, and the important thing was to recognize those mistakes and correct them.
They returned to Dongsang Kingdom with the middle-aged man and the pamphlet, and told Bai Yu everything.
Bai Yu was furious upon hearing this, and he immediately summoned the monarchs of various countries to discuss how to fight against the mysterious organization "The Dead".
After intense discussion, the four valiant warriors—Xu Yuehuai, Xia Sen, Li Tong, and their newly joined ally—decided to join forces and destroy the headquarters of the "Dead" organization, which had long threatened the peace of the four nations.
The night was as dark as ink, and the starlight was obscured by dark clouds. The four people gathered at a makeshift camp deep in the dense forest, where the campfire flickered, illuminating their resolute faces.
Xu Yuehuai, clad in black armor, her eyes piercing, spoke first, her voice deep and powerful: "Tonight, we will fight for the peace of the four nations, for the innocent victims. This battle cannot be lost!"
Qi Guze, holding a long sword with a sharp glint in his eyes, said, "Yue Huai is right. If the four of us join forces, we will definitely be able to destroy the headquarters of the 'Dead' and restore peace to the four kingdoms."
Xia Sen, dressed in red, looked dashing and heroic. He lightly stroked the long whip at his waist, a cold smile playing on his lips: "The evil deeds of the dead are countless. Tonight, let their sins turn to ashes in the firelight!"
The newly joined ally was a burly man named Tiezhu. He wielded a giant hammer and spoke in a booming voice: "I, Tiezhu, am not talented, but I am willing to do my part for the peace of the four nations. Tonight, I will make those scum of the dead taste the power of my hammer!"
The four men exchanged a smile, their eyes filled with determination and resolve. They knew all too well that this battle concerned the fate of the four nations and the safety of countless people.
As night deepened, the four quietly left the camp and headed towards the headquarters of the "Dead." They traversed dense forests, climbed cliffs, and endured countless hardships before finally arriving at their destination.
The headquarters of "The Dead" is located in an abandoned castle, surrounded by a sinister atmosphere.
The four cautiously approached the castle, only to discover that numerous traps had been laid at the entrance.
Xu Yuehuai's eyes sharpened, and she whispered, "Be careful, there's a trap here."
She moved swiftly, dodging a hidden arrow, and at the same time swung her sword to cut another tripwire.
Qi Guze and Xia Sen followed closely behind, nimbly dodging the traps, while Tie Zhu wielded his giant hammer, smashing the obstacles along the way.
The four finally arrived at the castle gate, only to find it tightly closed and heavily guarded.
Xu Yuehuai took a deep breath and said to everyone, "We'll split up. I'll distract the guards, and you can take the opportunity to sneak into the castle."
She flashed and rushed towards the side of the castle, shouting, "You dogs of the dead, come and die!"
Attracted by his voice, the guards chased after her. Meanwhile, Qi Guze, Xia Sen, Li Tong, and Tie Zhu took the opportunity to sneak into the castle.
The castle was dark and cold inside, filled with a nauseating stench. The three proceeded cautiously, afraid of alerting the enemy.
Suddenly, a strange laugh rang out, and a figure dressed in a black robe appeared before them.
"Haha, you think you can easily destroy our headquarters? How naive!" the man in black sneered.
A cold glint flashed in Xia Sen's eyes. He stepped forward with his sword drawn and shouted, "You scum of the dead, prepare to die!"
The man in black chuckled, his movements elusive, like a ghost. Suddenly, a dark dagger appeared in his hand, and he thrust it fiercely towards Xia Sen.
