At dawn, the hazy mountain fog is like a veil, covering the mysterious face of Lingxi Mountain☆

Gu Peng, Su Qianqian, Gu Yuan, Ye Wuhen, and Ye Hanxing travel together and embark on a journey to explore the mountains☆

Their steps are firm, and their faces are filled with curiosity and anticipation for the unknown world☆

Gu Peng walked in front, his eyes were as sharp as an eagle, through the faint mountain mist, he seemed to be able to see through every secret in the mountains☆

He held his head high and led the team forward, like a lion, exuding a brave aura that was not afraid of difficulties☆

Su Qianqian was like a mountain orchid. She was sitting in a wheelchair, feeling very happy! She smiled a long-lost smile. She lowered her head and whispered to the flowers, and then she sang softly, adding a bit of poetry and tenderness to this journey☆

Gu Yuan and Ye Wuhen were also in high spirits. They walked side by side, chatting and laughing.☆

Gu Yuan's eyes sparkled with wisdom, while Ye Wuhen had a calm expression. Deep in his heart, he seemed to have an unknown tenacity and determination.

The mountain road twists and turns, like a secret path leading to a fairyland. As they go deeper, the scenery in the mountains becomes more and more magnificent☆

The five people smiled at each other, expressing their common expectation for the unknown world and their deep gratitude for each other's company. ☆

"Let's go!" Gu Peng gave the order, and the five people's backs became more and more determined and upright in the morning light. They embarked on a journey to explore the mysteries of Lingxi Mountain, with full expectations and passion, to meet every unknown challenge and surprise☆

Their figures, illuminated by the morning light in the mountains, became a unique landscape☆

In Yaolin Pavilion, a cold atmosphere permeated every corner. Concubine Yao sat upright on the bed, her face as gloomy as water, and she rubbed the emerald jade ring in her hand hard, as if it would break at any time☆

"My lady, Suning has...already woken up! They are already on their way to Lingxi Mountain." The maid knelt on the ground trembling with fear, and delivered the news in a trembling voice☆

"What?" Concubine Yao raised her head suddenly, a sharp cold light flashed in her eyes. She stared at the maid, as if she wanted to eat her alive☆

"She's not dead!" Concubine Yao gritted her teeth and said, every word revealed deep hatred☆

Yaopin stood up suddenly and kicked over the tea table in front of her, breaking the tea set to pieces. The crackling sound echoed in the quiet Yaolin Pavilion, making people terrified☆

"Go check it out right now, quickly." Her voice was cold and cruel, as if it came from the depths of hell☆

The maids were so silent that they dared not even breathe. They knew that Concubine Yao had completely fallen into madness at this time, and any behavior that angered her could lead to disastrous consequences☆

In the depths of Yaolin Pavilion, a black shadow suddenly appeared, carrying an indescribable strange aura☆

The black shadow lowered his head, his face hidden in the thick shadows, revealing only a pair of eyes flashing with cold light, like two bottomless cold pools☆

She spoke slowly in a voice that sounded like a man or a woman, her tone full of sarcasm and disdain: "Yaopin, you are so stupid! If I hadn't secretly helped you last time, how could you have easily turned the tables? Now, you've made the same mistake again."☆

As he spoke, the shadow slowly walked in front of Yaopin. Yaopin seemed to be restrained by an invisible force at this moment, unable to move, and could only watch the shadow approach☆

The shadow raised his hand and slapped Yaopin's face with a loud slap. The blow was so powerful that Yaopin's head suddenly tilted to one side, and a clear slap mark instantly appeared on her face☆

Yaopin only felt a burning pain on her face, and her heart was filled with astonishment and fear☆

She stared at the shadow in front of her with wide eyes, then Yaopin caught a glimpse of the shadow's eyes, leaned down hastily, and said tremblingly: "It is the Lord of Hell who hit me, and it is my humble concubine who made a mistake again."☆

The shadow just glanced at her coldly and said, "Also, make good use of your General Huo." Then he turned around and disappeared into the darkness, leaving Concubine Yao alone in shock☆

The entire Yaolin Pavilion fell into deathly silence again, with only the rapid breathing of Concubine Yao echoing in the empty pavilion☆

She knew that the Lord of Hell would become her lingering nightmare☆

Su Qianqian, Gu Peng, Gu Yuan, Ye Hanxing and Ye Wuhen, a group of five people, came to the prosperous Wucheng☆

The city is bustling with people shouting and hawking in the streets and alleys, and there are endless streams of pedestrians and shops☆

They moved among the bustling crowd, looking around curiously☆

Su Qianqian was wearing a light and elegant dress with a gentle smile on her face. She seemed to be very curious about the prosperity of this city☆

The brothers Gu Peng and Gu Yuan looked calm. They walked side by side, their sharp eyes scanning the surroundings from time to time, as if they were looking for something☆

Ye Hanxing and Ye Wuhen followed closely behind. They had a stern temperament, but they stood out in this lively environment☆

Just as they were immersed in the prosperity and bustle of Wucheng, suddenly, a burst of hurried horse hooves broke the harmonious atmosphere☆

The pedestrians on the street were startled and fled, only to see a team of black knights galloping towards them, with great momentum. The five people looked at each other, realizing that this sudden change seemed to foreshadow an unusual event that was about to happen☆

They exchanged glances quickly, secretly alerted, and prepared to deal with unknown challenges that might arise☆

Su Qianqian, Gu Peng, Gu Yuan, Ye Hanxing and Ye Wuhen were startled by the sudden appearance of the black knights. They immediately moved to the side of the street to avoid the galloping horses.

The originally lively atmosphere on the street suddenly became tense, and passers-by were talking about what had happened☆

The black knights did not stop and disappeared at the end of the street in a blink of an eye. The five people looked at each other and felt an urge to explore. They decided to follow them and see what secrets were hidden behind it☆

After passing through several busy streets, they came to a relatively quiet alley. They saw that the black knights had dismounted and were gathering in front of a seemingly ordinary house.

The five people approached quietly, hiding in the dark, trying to spy on the truth☆

The gate of the house was closed, but the sound of low conversation could be heard faintly coming from inside☆

The five of them held their breath, trying to capture every word. Suddenly, the door was pushed open, and a figure hurried out, holding something in his hand☆

Ye Wuhen stared at the five men in black in front of him with deep eyes. They exuded a chill, as if they were messengers from the underworld.

He said in a deep voice: "These are five of the twelve spirit envoys of the Netherworld Sect. Look at the spirit stones on their waists, that is the symbol of the Netherworld Sect."☆

Everyone looked over when they heard this. They saw that around the waist of each black-clothed man was a spiritual stone of different colors.

In the night, these spiritual stones flickered with strange light, like twelve stars at different times. ☆

"There are twelve colors in total, corresponding to the twelve hours." Ye Wuhen continued to explain☆

Gu Yuan stood aside, frowning, and asked in confusion: "How do you know this? We at Tianxialou have been searching for a long time, but we haven't been able to find any information about the Netherworld Gate. How did you get this information?"☆

Ye Wuhen sighed softly, with a complicated look in his eyes. He slowly said, "Because I used to be a member of the Dark Council. I have personally experienced those dusty secrets and those unknown past events. Alas, they are all in the past. Now, these messengers from the Netherworld have reappeared in the world, and I am afraid that they will set off another bloody storm."☆

Gu Yuan was shocked when he heard this. He looked at Ye Wuhen with surprise in his eyes! The Dark Council, a name that Gu Yuan never wanted to mention again. And Ye Wuhen was actually a member of it☆

Gu Yuan looked up at Ye Wuhen, with a complex emotion flashing in his eyes. This instantaneous memory reminded him of that name - Feng Lingxue. He hesitated a little, but still asked carefully: "Do you... do you know Feng Lingxue?"☆

Upon hearing this, Ye Wuhen blurted out without even thinking: "Feng Lingxue, you are talking about Mingyoudie, right? Of course I recognize her. She is the only one in our Dark Council whose hands are not stained with blood. She is admirable."☆

At this point, Ye Wuhen sighed softly, with a hint of regret in his eyes, "Alas, what a pity!"☆

Gu Yuan's heart was stirred when he heard Ye Wuhen's answer. He didn't expect that Ye Wuhen had such a past with Feng Lingxue, and it sounded like Feng Lingxue had an unusual status in the Dark Council.

Ye Hanxing stood aside and keenly sensed Gu Yuan's sadness. He glanced at Ye Wuhen indifferently, with a hint of reminder in his eyes, as if to say that his words were a little too frequent☆

Ye Wuhen received Ye Hanxing's gaze, paused for a moment, and then regained his composure. He changed the subject lightly, as if everything that had just happened was just an unintentional mention and he didn't want to delve into it.

However, Gu Yuan knew that it was a memory that he would never forget. Gu Peng patted Gu Yuan on the shoulder, signaling him to relax, while Su Qianqian reached out and held Gu Yuan's hand tightly☆

This grip seemed to convey endless strength and comfort, making Gu Yuan feel unprecedented warmth and support at this moment☆

However, this action also immediately attracted the attention of Ye Hanxing and Gu Peng. Their eyes were directed at Gu Yuan at the same time, as if they wanted to see through his heart☆

Gu Yuan felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by these two sharp eyes. He suddenly realized that eyes can kill. This seemed so real at this moment that he could not escape☆

He scratched his head awkwardly, trying to ease the sudden awkward atmosphere☆

Gu Yuan knew that his past could not represent the present, but he also understood that those experiences would always be a part of his life and could not be erased☆
