In that turbulent era, the Great Zhou Dynasty was like a dazzling pearl, inlaid on the map of the four kingdoms, shining brightly and attracting much attention.
On this ancient and fertile land, Xu Yuehuai and Qi Guze, two brave and skilled warriors, shoulder the heavy responsibility of protecting the glory and dignity of the dynasty and jointly resist external invasions.
However, fate always seems to like to play tricks on people.
On a sunny afternoon, dark clouds suddenly filled the sky over Beijing, covering the entire city like a giant black curtain, shutting out all the sunshine and warmth.
This sudden change has caused people to feel inexplicable panic and unease.
Xu Yuehuai stood atop the towering city wall, her gaze piercing as she stared intently at the sky shrouded in darkness. Her heart was filled with doubt and unease; this sudden surge of darkness seemed to foreshadow an impending storm.
She knew that as the guardian of the dynasty, she had to step forward, find out the truth, and protect the peace of the people.
Qi Guze also stood on the city wall, his brows furrowed, his eyes flashing with determination.
He knew that the emergence of this dark force was no accident; it inevitably meant an unprecedented challenge was about to begin. He decided to fight alongside Xu Yuehuai to face this unknown challenge together.
The two looked at each other, their eyes revealing a resolute determination.
They understood that as guardians of the dynasty, they had to shoulder this heavy responsibility.
Therefore, they decided to split into two groups. Xu Yuehuai led a team of elite soldiers to explore the source of the dark forces, while Qi Guze stayed in the capital to strengthen defenses and ensure the safety of the city.
Xu Yuehuai's team traversed towering mountains and endured countless hardships before finally arriving at a desolate valley.
The place was deserted, with only the biting wind howling through the valley, as if telling a secret unknown to anyone. She led her soldiers forward cautiously, afraid of alerting the enemy lurking in the shadows.
However, at that moment, a piercing scream suddenly echoed through the valley, sending chills down one's spine.
Xu Yuehuai and the others immediately stopped in their tracks, looking around. They saw a group of eerie figures draped in black robes slowly emerging from the surrounding darkness.
These black-robed figures had ferocious faces, held magical artifacts, and exuded an evil aura, as if they were demons crawling out of hell.
"As expected, it's those cult remnants causing trouble again!" Xu Yuehuai shouted coldly. She had dealt with these cult members many times and knew their cunning and cruelty all too well.
However, this time the situation seemed different. The dark power emanating from these black-robed figures was stronger than before, as if some mysterious force was supporting them.
The black-robed figures cackled and launched a fierce attack on Xu Yuehuai and his companions. The magical artifacts in their hands emitted a dim light and released powerful dark energy.
Undeterred, Xu Yuehuai and his companions brandished their weapons and engaged in fierce combat with the men in black robes. After a fierce battle, they finally defeated the men in black robes one by one.
However, while defeating the man in black, they also discovered a startling secret—this dark power did not come from the remnants of a cult, but from a more mysterious and powerful enemy.
This enemy seems to possess some kind of dark magic, and is attempting to use this power to control the entire Great Zhou Dynasty, and even the entire Four Kingdoms.
Xu Yuehuai immediately sent someone to relay the news back to the capital.
Upon receiving the news, Qi Guze was shocked. He knew that this time, the enemy they faced was stronger and more cunning than ever before. He had to summon the court officials and heroes from all walks of life as soon as possible to discuss countermeasures.
After some discussion, they decided to unite the four nations to fight against this mysterious enemy.
An unprecedented battle is about to break out. The four-nation allied forces have assembled outside the capital. Xu Yuehuai and Qi Guze stand at the forefront of the allied forces, their gazes firm and sharp, as if they can pierce through the darkness ahead.
"Today, we will fight that dark force to the death! For the peace of the Great Zhou Dynasty, for the peace of the four kingdoms, we must defeat it!" Xu Yuehuai declared loudly. Her voice was filled with determination and resolve, inspiring everyone present.
The allied soldiers shouted in unison, "Defeat the forces of darkness and defend our homeland!" Their voices were deafening, as if they could shake the heavens and the earth.
At that moment, they seemed to transform into an unstoppable force, surging towards the source of the dark power.
However, the battle proved far more difficult than anticipated. The dark forces seemed endless, surging in from all directions. The allied soldiers fought bravely, but the dark forces surged in wave after wave, as if to engulf them.
Xu Yuehuai and Qi Guze also took the lead, fighting bravely on the battlefield, but their anxiety grew heavier and heavier.
They knew that if they didn't find a way to break the dark forces as soon as possible, they would likely be unable to win this battle.
"Whoosh—!"
Just when they were feeling desperate, a dazzling light suddenly descended from the sky, illuminating the entire battlefield.
Everyone looked up and saw an old man in a white robe slowly descending. He held a radiant staff and exuded a holy aura, like a god descending to earth.
The old man claimed to be Xuan Lingzi, a mage of light, who had come to help after hearing about the dark forces.
Xuan Lingzi taught the allied soldiers a light magic that could dispel dark forces, giving them an advantage in battle. The allied soldiers eagerly learned this magic and used it flexibly in combat.
As the spells of light were cast, the dark forces were gradually dispelled, and the allied soldiers began to gain the upper hand.
However, the source of the dark forces seemed to sense the threat and began a frenzied counterattack. But the allied soldiers did not back down; they continued to wield their weapons and engage in fierce combat with the dark forces.
Each attack was accompanied by a dazzling light, as if it could tear the darkness apart!
In this fierce battle, Xu Yuehuai and Qi Guze demonstrated extraordinary courage and wisdom.
They not only led their soldiers to fight bravely against the enemy, but also kept a close eye on the changes in the battle situation and flexibly adjusted their tactics.
Under their leadership, the allied soldiers fought with increasing ferocity, gradually driving the dark forces into a corner.
Finally, through the combined efforts of the allied soldiers, the dark forces were completely dispelled.
The mysterious enemy vanished without a trace under the illumination of the light magic. After the battle, the four-nation allied forces began clearing the battlefield and treating the wounded.
Xu Yuehuai and Qi Guze also returned to the capital and reported the battle situation to the court.
Their heroic deeds spread throughout the four kingdoms, and people praised them as heroes who protected their homeland. Their names were etched in the annals of history, becoming a celebrated tale for future generations.
