In the days that followed, Xu Yuehuai, Bai Yu, Bei Xuan, and Xia Sen sat around the council hall of the Mingyue Kingdom, where they frequently discussed how to reclaim the throne.
On this day, inside the main hall, the flickering candlelight illuminated the solemn and resolute faces of the four people.
Bei Xuan spoke first, her voice gentle yet firm: "Sister, after learning of your plight, our people and ministers are all willing to lend a helping hand. We are willing to fight alongside you to reclaim the throne of Dongsang."
Upon hearing this, a tear of emotion welled up in Xu Yuehuai's eyes. She held Bei Xuan's hand tightly, her voice choked with emotion, "Bei Xuan, you are truly our benefactor."
Xia Sen also stood up, his gaze firm and fervent: "Ah Xuan is right. It is our honor to be able to lend a helping hand to our elder sister. I am willing to lead our country's warriors to fight to the death against the traitors of Dong Sang!"
Bai Yu stood up, his gaze sharp as if piercing through all darkness: "Once I reclaim the throne, Dong Sang and Ming Yue will form an eternal alliance to protect this land and ensure that the people live in peace and prosperity."
Bei Xuan stood up and exchanged a glance with Bai Yu. Both of them had a firm look in their eyes: "A promise is a promise."
They decided to send an elite force to help Xu Yuehuai and Bai Yu reclaim the throne and rescue the people from their suffering.
Xia Sen resolutely stated that he was willing to fight alongside everyone and go to Dongsang together.
Bei Xuan held Xia Sen's hand tightly, her eyes filled with worry: "Ah Sen, this trip is dangerous. You must be careful and protect yourself."
Xia Sen smiled slightly, his eyes shining with determination: "Ah Xuan, don't worry, I will return safely."
As a horn sounded, the elite troops of the Dark Moon Kingdom embarked on their journey.
Xu Yuehuai, Xia Sen, and Bai Yu walked side by side, their eyes filled with determination and courage.
As their grand plan for restoring their kingdom unfolded, Xu Yuehuai and Bai Yu began secretly contacting envoys from neighboring states such as Da Zhou and Wu Ling. Every night, when the lights were dim, that was their time to discuss their grand strategy.
"Your Excellency, the Kingdom of Dongsang is currently suffering greatly from the ravages of Songluo, and its people are living in dire straits. We are willing to help Dongsang restore its kingdom and bring peace and prosperity to its people." Xu Yuehuai's voice was gentle yet firm, and her eyes shone with wisdom.
Upon hearing this, the envoy from the Great Zhou Dynasty pondered deeply: "Your Highness, we have long heard of the situation in Dongsang Kingdom. However, restoring a kingdom is no small matter and cannot be accomplished overnight. Do you have any good strategies?"
Xu Yuehuai smiled slightly, took out a detailed map of the Dongsang Kingdom, and said with an air of authority, "This is a map of Dongsang. I have secretly contacted my old subordinates. When the time is right, we can storm the palace in one fell swoop."
"I see, then we must help."
"In that case, my Great Zhou is willing to send troops."
"We will certainly wish King Dongsang a return to the throne!"
The messengers were impressed by her wisdom and all expressed their willingness to lend a helping hand.
Meanwhile, Bai Yu used his influence to secretly gather a group of loyal royal guards.
"Song Luo is not the legitimate successor at all. Are you still willing to fight alongside me?"
"Of course I'd like to!"
"Your Majesty, we only recognize you!"
"Defeat the jinx, capture Song Luo!"
These royal guards, though operating in the shadows, were always ready to fight for the restoration of their kingdom.
One day, Xu Yuehuai disguised herself and sneaked into Tianxiang Tower to meet with her secret guards. The lanterns of Tianxiang Tower swayed in the night, adding to the mystery of her secret trip.
"Your Highness!" A sharp-eyed guard recognized her and excitedly stepped forward.
"We've finally waited for you!"
Whatever you want to do, we are willing to support you!
Xu Yuehuai gently removed her straw hat, revealing her beautiful face, and smiled, "Thank you all for your hard work. With you here, my confidence is greatly boosted."
"Next, I hope you will lend me a hand and come with me to Dongsang..."
The guards surrounded her, bombarding her with questions about her recent situation and plans. Xu Yuehuai patiently answered their questions, while also reminding them to proceed with caution.
Meanwhile, Xia Sen was also busy contacting his former subordinates. He wandered through the streets and alleys of the Underworld Moon Kingdom, sometimes talking quietly with people, sometimes quickly leaving. His figure appeared and disappeared in the night, like a mysterious knight-errant.
After much effort, Xia Sen finally managed to contact a group of loyal former followers. They met secretly in a secluded tavern to discuss their plan to restore their kingdom.
"Gentlemen, Dongsang Kingdom is now in imminent danger. As people of the four kingdoms, we certainly cannot stand idly by." Xia Sen spoke eloquently, his impassioned tone inspiring everyone present.
"Yes, we'd like to join as well."
"Let's lend a hand too!"
The former subordinates expressed their willingness to follow Xia Sen and fight together for the restoration of the Dongsang Kingdom.
As the plan to restore the kingdom progressed, the royal palace of Dongsang was shrouded in a somber atmosphere under the cover of night.
On a dark and windy night, Xu Yuehuai, Xia Sen, and Bai Yu led their elite troops, like ghosts in the night, and quietly approached the palace.
In the darkness, the palace fires flickered, like a bloodthirsty beast waiting for its prey to walk into its trap.
"Sister, everything is ready, just waiting for your command." Xia Sen's voice was deep and firm, and his eyes shone with determination.
Xu Yuehuai, clad in armor and holding a long sword, had a gaze as cold as ice, seemingly able to pierce through the fog of night. She nodded slightly and gave the order to attack.
"kill--!"
In an instant, war drums thundered and battle cries shook the heavens. The elite army surged toward the palace like a tidal wave, the firelight reflecting off their armor and gleaming with a cold light.
Xu Yuehuai led from the front, her swordsmanship fierce and unparalleled; each swing of her sword was accompanied by the screams of her enemies as they fell. Her figure flickered in and out of the firelight, like the arrival of death itself.
"Sister, we've tied down the enemy on the left flank. The enemy on the right flank is yours!" Xia Sen shouted from the other side of the battlefield, his voice filled with the passion of battle.
"good!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Yuehuai immediately led an elite force to charge towards the right flank. Her swordsmanship became even more ferocious, each strike leaving the enemy overwhelmed. Under her leadership, the enemy on the right flank was quickly routed.
Bai Yu stood on high ground, calmly observing the battle. His gaze was profound, as if he could see through everything. He had already set up multiple traps and ambushes, waiting for the enemy to fall into their traps.
"Lord Baiyu, the trap has been triggered, and the enemy has suffered heavy losses!" A soldier excitedly ran over to report.
Bai Yu nodded slightly, a cold smile playing on his lips. He knew that victory in this battle was within reach.
Where is Song Luo right now?
"Reporting to you, sir, we haven't found it yet."
Bai Yu's face was icy: "Continue the search. We absolutely cannot let her leave alive."
"Yes, sir!"
