Douluo Continent: Dragon Shadow Rebirth

As night fell, the village was shrouded in silence, with only the rustling of leaves in the wind echoing in the air. Despite the quiet surroundings, Qin Feng and his companions did not relax at all, as they knew that tonight might be the final showdown between them and the mysterious force.

Chu Tian fiddled with the dagger in his hand and joked, "What do you think? Can we give them a 'Guardian Scare' when they're not paying attention? I just practiced a set of moves. If we add some ghost screams, it will definitely scare them to death!"

Ye Li frowned: "Chu Tian, ​​can you be a little more serious? We are facing a great crisis for the village now."

"I'm just trying to lighten the mood!" Chu Tian grinned, "Don't you think we've been too nervous lately? One moment there's a mysterious force, the next moment there's the gem heart. We're almost turning into the protagonists of a suspense novel."

Zhang Meng patted Chu Tian on the shoulder and said, "If we really stage a suspense drama, I will definitely be the best fighter. Maybe I can even beat up a few villains."

"Okay, focus now," Qin Feng interrupted their laughter, his eyes scanning the darkness in the distance sharply, "We are going to set up an ambush tonight and wait for them to fall into our trap."

They set up an ambush at the entrance of the village. Ye Li and her frost fox were responsible for monitoring the surrounding environment of the entire village. Chu Tian hid in a tree, holding a dagger in his hand ready to attack at any time. Zhang Meng and Qin Feng were guarding the open space at the entrance of the village, looking ready for battle.

Zhang Meng waved his fist and said, "Boss, I have a feeling that there will be a lot of people coming this time. Do you think we can handle it?"

Qin Feng nodded calmly: "Don't worry, as long as we cooperate well, the mysterious force will definitely not be able to escape."

As the night deepened, Ye Li's frost fox suddenly let out a low hissing sound, signaling that the enemy was approaching. Qin Feng's ears moved slightly, and he immediately heard several light footsteps coming from the east side of the village.

"Here they come!" Qin Feng lowered his voice and signaled to his companions around him. Everyone immediately held their breath and prepared to welcome the arrival of the enemy.

Sure enough, not long after, several mysterious men in black robes quietly appeared at the entrance of the village. Their movements were very light, and they obviously didn't want to alarm anyone, but they didn't know that they had already been spotted by Qin Feng and others.

"It seems they are quite cautious." Chu Tian muttered in a low voice, holding the dagger tightly, with a bit of teasing in his eyes, "I will jump down first and scare them later!"

Qin Feng's eyes narrowed, and he whispered, "It's not the right time yet, wait a little longer."

The leading black-robed man stopped at the entrance of the village, looked around, and then whispered to the people around him: "It seems that no one has discovered us, let's move. The target is the Gem Heart, don't worry about the others."

Hearing this, Qin Feng immediately confirmed that these people were coming for the gems in their hands. He raised his hand and waved it gently. Chu Tian understood the signal and quickly jumped down from the tree. The short sword flashed with cold light and stabbed directly at the nearest black-robed man.

"Are you surprised?" Chu Tian added a proud line the moment he jumped down.

The black-robed men were obviously startled by the sudden attack, but they reacted very quickly. Several black-robed men instantly drew their weapons and fought with Chu Tian. At the same time, Qin Feng, Zhang Meng and Ye Li also rushed out from the ambush point and directly attacked the black-robed men.

"Are you the mysterious force? This time I'll show you what real power is!" Zhang Meng roared, waving his fists, and charging like a tank. Several men in black robes obviously underestimated his power and were knocked flying by his punches.

"I told you, he is indeed a small fry." Zhang Meng said proudly.

The black-robed leader saw that the situation was not good and immediately shouted, "Retreat! Retreat!"

However, Qin Feng had already seen through his intentions, and he quickly swung the Dragon Shadow Sword, and the sword light struck the leading black-robed man like thunder. The leader tried to resist, but was shocked by the powerful spiritual power and retreated again and again.

"Do you think you can run away?" Qin Feng sneered and followed closely.

Under his Dragon Shadow Sword, the black-robed man had no power to fight back and was soon forced to a wall at the entrance of the village. The leader gritted his teeth and swung his weapon violently, wanting to fight to the death. However, Qin Feng was agile and easily dodged his attack, and quickly seized the opportunity to chop him down with his sword.

"Tell me! Who is your master? Why are you looking for the heart of the gem?" Qin Feng asked sternly.

The man in black robe looked pale, obviously he didn't expect to be subdued so quickly. He hesitated for a moment, clenched his teeth, and seemed unwilling to reveal any information.

Ye Li stepped forward and said calmly: "Even if you don't want to talk, we still have a way to make you talk."

However, at this moment, the black-robed leader's face suddenly changed drastically, and he let out a painful groan. Then, his body began to tremble violently, as if controlled by some force.

"He's been poisoned!" Ye Li exclaimed, and immediately realized that something was wrong. The black-robed man's eyes gradually became empty, and finally he fell to the ground and never moved again.

"It seems that each of them has been cast under some kind of silencing spell. As long as we interrogate them, they will die immediately." Qin Feng analyzed calmly while looking at the bodies of the men in black robes.

"This is troublesome. It seems that we have to find another way to find out who their master is." Chu Tian scratched his head, "I thought I could get something out of him."

Zhang Meng patted Chu Tian on the shoulder and said, "Don't lose heart. This is not the first time we have encountered such a difficult situation. At worst, we can have another round and beat them until they confess."

"What should we do next?" Ye Li asked, "Although we successfully ambushed this group, there must be more people out there."

Qin Feng nodded, a cold light flashed in his eyes: "Since they are coming for the Gem Heart, why don't we do the opposite and set a bigger trap to lure out their main force."

After returning to the village, Qin Feng and his companions gathered together to formulate a bold plan. Since the mysterious forces were determined to obtain the Heart of the Gem, they decided to use the gem as bait to lure the enemy out. Ye Li was responsible for setting traps outside the village, while Chu Tian and Zhang Meng were responsible for ambushing at key locations, ready to catch them all in one fell swoop.

"This plan is quite risky, but as long as we cooperate well, it should go smoothly." Qin Feng said firmly.

“Hey, we are the protagonists this time! We won’t let those villains be so arrogant anymore!” Chu Tian clenched his fists excitedly.

Zhang Meng was rubbing his hands together, "I can't wait any longer. I must have a good fight today."

Night fell on the village again. This time, the ambush at the entrance of the village was more elaborate. Qin Feng and his men knew that this would be a decisive battle. Although it was full of danger, the faith of victory was revealed in the eyes of each of them.

In the darkness, the main force of the mysterious force is quietly approaching. They are unaware of the ambush in the village and seem to have been completely deceived by the temptation of the "Gem Heart"...
