Let you be a good grandson, you raise a group of banshees?

Lu Yuan, Ye Ling'er and Chu Yao walked along the rugged mountain road. The sunlight shone on their faces through the sparse shadows of the trees, bringing a brief warmth.

However, their mood did not relax.

The shadow of the Dark Gate still looms over their heads and may attack again at any time.

"Not far ahead is the Black Demon Sect's stronghold."

Lu Yuan looked at the map and said in a low voice.

"From here on, we could be ambushed at any time."

His voice was calm and firm, but Ye Ling'er and Chu Yao could sense the tension in his heart.

This is the most important and also the most dangerous battle of their trip.

“We’ve come this far.”

Chu Yao clenched the sword in her hand with a determined look.

"No matter how deeply the Dark Gate hides, we must completely destroy their conspiracy."

Ye Ling'er also nodded. Although she felt a little uneasy in her heart, she still chose to stand beside Lu Yuan.

"Brother Lu Yuan, let's face it together."

Lu Yuan smiled lightly, then put the map away and looked forward with a stern gaze.

“We have to win this time.”

The three continued to move forward, and as they gradually approached their target, the atmosphere around them became increasingly strange and depressing.

There seemed to be an invisible evil spirit in the air, and the plants and trees no longer looked vibrant, but instead looked dead.

"The atmosphere here is not right."

Ye Ling'er whispered, looking around vigilantly.

"The Dark Demon Sect has already set up a barrier here."

Lu Yuan said without stopping.

He could feel that the spiritual energy of the surrounding heaven and earth was gradually being suppressed. This was one of the evil spells of the Black Demon Sect.

"Keep going, don't stop."

He whispered, a look of determination in his eyes.

The three of them walked through the woods, and the scene ahead gradually emerged.

It was a deserted ancient city with mottled city walls and stone roads covered with moss, as if it had gone through countless years of baptism.

However, every corner of this ancient city exudes a chilling evil aura that makes people shudder.

"Is this the Black Demon Sect's lair?"

Chu Yao frowned slightly, with some confusion and nervousness in her eyes.

"It looks like an abandoned city."

"However, this kind of place is perfect for the Dark Demon Sect to hide."

Lu Yuan said coldly, then held the Xuanyuan Sword in his hand and looked around sharply.

"They must be in the dark, waiting for us to fall into their trap."

"We have to be careful."

He said, and then took Ye Ling'er and Chu Yao onto the ancient stone road.

The footsteps of the three people seemed unusually clear in the silent air, and every step seemed to be on the edge of danger.

The air around them seemed to be getting heavier, as if an invisible force was slowly suppressing their every movement.

"They may have spotted us."

Lu Yuan whispered, his body slightly tense, ready for an attack at any time.

Suddenly, a strange low laugh came from all directions, as if it was a call from the depths of darkness.

"coming."

Lu Yuan's eyes turned cold, and the Xuanyuan Sword was suddenly unsheathed. The sword energy swept through the air like a sharp blade, heading straight for the source of the sound.

"boom!"

The sword energy exploded in the air, and the strong fluctuation of spiritual power instantly shattered a stone wall in front, revealing a black shadow hidden behind it.

"Huh, there really is someone there."

Lu Yuan said coldly, and then his figure rushed forward like a ghost, with the Xuanyuan Sword flashing with dazzling golden light in his hand.

Those dark shadows did not expect Lu Yuan's speed to be so fast and were instantly forced back by the sword energy.

"You are here as expected." A deep voice came from the shadows, and then several figures in black robes slowly walked out.

The leader was none other than the right protector of the Black Demon Sect.

"Lu Yuan, I didn't expect you to actually dare to break into the core area of ​​our Black Demon Sect."

The right protector said coldly, with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes.

"Do you really think that you can destroy the thousand-year-old foundation of our Black Demon Sect by yourself?"

"The Black Demon Sect's conspiracy ends here today."

Lu Yuan's voice was as cold as the wind, and the Xuan-Yuan Sword trembled slightly in his hand, as if it couldn't wait to cut off the evil ahead.

"ridiculous."

The right protector laughed loudly, then swung the long staff in his hand violently. A strong evil spirit instantly spread around, and the entire air seemed to be shrouded in a layer of black fog.

"Do you think that killing the Sect Master will end everything?"

"The power of our Black Demon Sect is far beyond your imagination!"

As he finished his words, more dark shadows slowly emerged from the shadows around them and surrounded Lu Yuan and the other two.

These people are all the death warriors of the Black Demon Sect. They all have grim faces and their eyes are filled with coldness and murderous intent.

"Today, I will make sure you die without a burial place."

The right protector said coldly, then swung his long staff violently, and a strong evil energy swept towards Lu Yuan and the other two like a violent storm.

"Don't try to succeed!"

Lu Yuan shouted coldly, and swung the Xuanyuan Sword violently. The sword energy met the attack of the evil spirit like thunder.

"boom!"

Two powerful forces collided in the air, causing a deafening roar.

Lu Yuan took a half step back, his face looking slightly solemn.

"This force really cannot be underestimated."

He thought to himself and knew that the enemy before him was more difficult than the ones he had encountered before.

"Ling'er, Chu Yao, prepare to fight."

Lu Yuan said in a low voice, with a hint of coldness in his eyes.

Ye Ling'er and Chu Yao nodded at the same time, holding their weapons tightly with determined eyes.

"No matter how many of them there are, we will not back down."

Chu Yao said coldly, the long sword trembling slightly in her hand, with a cold light flashing on the blade.

"Today, we are going to put an end to this once and for all."

As Chu Yao finished speaking, Lu Yuan and the other two attacked at the same time. The sword energy and daggers intertwined in the air to form a light, heading straight for the Black Demon Sect's assassins.

"kill!"

The Black Demon Sect's assassins were not afraid at all. They swung their long swords at the same time, and the strong sword light instantly pounced towards Lu Yuan and the other two.

"Clang clang clang!"

The sounds of swords clashing rang out one after another, and the entire ancient city was instantly shrouded in the atmosphere of battle.

Lu Yuan's figure shuttled through the dark shadows, and the Xuanyuan Sword flashed through the air like lightning. Every time the sword was swung, it would take the life of an enemy.

"Although these assassins are powerful, they are not invincible."

Lu Yuan analyzed calmly in his mind. He knew that these assassins from the Black Demon Sect were specially trained killers, but they lacked flexible adaptability. As long as he seized the opportunity, he could defeat them one by one.

"Keep attacking, don't give them a chance to breathe!"

As he spoke, the Xuanyuan Sword in his hand burst out with strong sword energy again, and the sword tip went straight in the direction of the right protector.

"Don't even think about it!"

The right protector sneered and swung his long staff in the air. The strong evil energy instantly condensed into a black barrier, blocking Lu Yuan's sword energy.

"Humph, you dare to show off in front of me with just this little ability?"

He said coldly, and then suddenly inserted the long staff into the ground. A strong evil energy instantly spread around, and the whole ground seemed to be shaking slightly.

"what?"

Lu Yuan frowned, and the ground beneath his feet suddenly cracked. Several black chains emerged from the ground and quickly wrapped around Lu Yuan's body.

"Oops!"

He quickly swung his sword to cut the chains, but more chains emerged from all around, as if to trap him completely. (End of this chapter)
