The three of them quickly came to the command center, and Wu Junyao shared the latest intelligence with them. The identity of the traitor gradually surfaced, but more evidence was needed to confirm it.

"We need to set a trap to lure out the traitor." Jiang Yanwan continued to explain, "We can pretend to organize a secret operation and make the traitor think that we are making an important move, thus exposing his true identity."

Yun Ji thought for a moment and nodded, "This is indeed a good idea. We can arrange some false information and leak it out deliberately."

Liu Mengli also echoed: "If the traitor takes the bait, we can follow the clues and find more clues."

Wu Junyao pondered for a moment, "Then let's plan it this way, but we must ensure the absolute confidentiality of the operation and not let any suspicious people notice it."

On the eve of the operation, Yun Ji, Liu Mengli and Jiang Yanwan stood on the high tower of the castle, overlooking the entire camp. The breeze blew past, and their sleeves fluttered in the wind.

"Tomorrow is the critical moment. I hope everything goes well." Jiang Yanwan prayed in a low voice.

"Yes." Yun Ji answered firmly, "No matter how great the difficulties we face, we will win."

The next morning, the false information was successfully passed on, and all personnel were on high alert. Wu Junyao led a group of people to ambush in a hidden location, waiting for the enemy to take the bait.

As time passed, the tension in the air grew. Suddenly, a mysterious figure in a black cloak appeared outside the camp. He looked around cautiously and then quickly moved in a certain direction.

"Here they come!" A cold light flashed in Wu Junyao's eyes, and he called on his men to prepare for action.

Just as the man was about to fall into the trap, Liu Mengli suddenly appeared in front of him and said coldly: "Are you the traitor?"

The man was startled and tried to escape immediately, but was surrounded by the reborn who had been lying in ambush. Jiang Yanwan quickly used her witchcraft to block his escape route.

"Don't waste your energy," Wu Junyao sneered, "You have no way to escape."

The man took off his hood, revealing a familiar face. He turned out to be a senior member of the organization and a former partner.

"Why?" Yun Ji asked in disbelief, "Why did you betray us?"

The traitor sneered, "You will never understand that everything I do is for a higher purpose."

Yun Ji's face was solemn, her eyes were sharp, "No matter what your reasons are, you must pay the price for your betrayal today."

Wu Junyao said coldly: "Now, you have two choices - confess everything, or die."

There was a flash of fear in the traitor's eyes, but more of it was stubbornness and madness. "You will never understand..."

Just as he was speaking, there was a sound of hurried footsteps in the distance, and a figure approached quickly -

"Who is it?" Jiang Yanwan asked nervously.

"Who?" Jiang Yanwan asked nervously, her hand already quietly clenching the dagger at her waist.

The man was wearing a black cloak, his face was hidden in the shadows, and only his bright eyes could be seen.

He slowly approached and finally stopped in front of everyone. Wu Junyao and the other reborn people immediately became alert and formed a defensive formation.

"I'm... a friend." The mysterious man whispered, his voice hoarse and cold.

Yun Ji was slightly startled, and carefully looked at the figure of the person who came, and it seemed a little familiar. "Who are you?" She asked, frowning.

The mysterious man slowly turned around, revealing a slightly haggard but still handsome face.

When she saw this face, Yun Ji's eyes flashed with surprise and complicated emotions.

"Xuanyuan Jue?" she called softly, as if to confirm that what she saw was true.

"It's me, Yun Ji." Xuanyuan Jue nodded, his eyes firm, "I came back to help you."

Wu Junyao and Jiang Yanwan were both puzzled. Wu Junyao asked coldly, "Who is he?"

Yun Ji came back to her senses and explained, "Xuanyuan Jue was once my closest comrade-in-arms, but he disappeared for many years."

"That traitor is just a small fry," Xuanyuan Jue said calmly, his eyes sweeping over the captured traitor, "The real threat is still to come."

At this moment, a deafening roar was heard, and part of the castle in the distance suddenly exploded, with countless rocks and dust flying up. Then, there were bursts of wailing and fighting sounds coming from inside and outside the castle.

"The living dead!" Liu Mengli said in horror, "They're coming in!"

Wu Junyao quickly organized the defense, "Everyone prepare to fight! Jiang Yanwan, you are responsible for treating the wounded and trying to find a way to crack it."

Jiang Yanwan nodded quickly and rushed to where the wounded were concentrated with several medical staff.

Yun Ji drew out her long sword and calmly commanded the reborn to resist the attack of the living dead. Xuanyuan Jue stood silently beside her, holding up an ancient long sword with a sharp gaze.

The battle was extremely fierce, and the large number of living dead made the reborn exhausted. Yun Ji and Xuanyuan Jue joined forces, like two dazzling lights, shuttling among the enemy groups. They cooperated tacitly and knocked down the enemies one by one.

"Yun Ji, be careful!" Xuanyuan Jue suddenly shouted, and he swung his sword to block a zombie who attacked from the side.

Yun Ji was not to be outdone, and quickly counterattacked, killing the enemy. Her eyes were filled with determination, "We can't let them break through our defenses!"

At the same time, Jiang Yanwan had already treated several seriously injured people. She frowned as she looked at these living dead and couldn't help but think of some records in ancient books. She murmured to herself, "Maybe we can try using poisonous insects."

She quickly took out a few poisonous insects from her medicine bag, buried them in the powder made of herbs, and sprinkled them on the living dead. Sure enough, these poisonous insects quickly invaded the bodies of the living dead, destroying their nervous systems, making them slow to move, or even falling to the ground.

"It works!" Jiang Yanwan said happily. She immediately increased the production and use of medicine powder and gradually stabilized the situation.

Yun Ji and Xuanyuan Jue also saw this scene, and hope ignited in their hearts. Xuanyuan Jue said: "We must find the enemy's leader, who is manipulating all this behind the scenes."

Wu Junyao also rushed over at this time. After hearing Xuanyuan Jue's words, he made a decisive decision: "Okay, let's split up and find the enemy's key points."

With the coordination of several people, the situation on the battlefield gradually improved. Yun Ji, Xuanyuan Jue and Wu Junyao decided to go deep into the enemy camp and attack Huanglong directly. Jiang Yanwan stayed behind to continue commanding defense and treatment.

As the night deepened, the three of them crept through the dim jungle, their footsteps as light as cats, their eyes scanning the surroundings alertly, not missing any suspicious movements. Finally, they found a hidden cave with several guards standing at the door.

"It seems that this is their lair." Wu Junyao whispered, "We must get rid of them quietly."

Xuanyuan Jue nodded, "I will use the sword energy to divert their attention, and you take the opportunity to sneak in."

His sword energy cut through the sky like a meteor, and the guards moved out of the way. Yun Ji and Wu Junyao took the opportunity to sneak into the cave. Deep in the cave, the lights were bright, and several mysterious people were busy performing some kind of ancient ritual.

"Excuse me," Yun Ji sneered and suddenly appeared, "I hope you don't mind."

The mysterious people turned around one after another, and one of them said coldly: "You actually found this place, I really underestimated you."

Wu Junyao rushed forward without hesitation, drawing his sword, and the battle broke out instantly. Xuanyuan Jue quickly followed, and the two joined forces to fight against several mysterious people. Yun Ji targeted one of the people who looked like the leader.

"Who are you?" Yun Ji asked sternly, pointing the sword directly at the man.

The man sneered, and released a strange light when he raised his hand, "You are not worthy of knowing my name."

The two quickly exchanged blows, with sparks flying as the swords collided. Yun Ji discovered that her opponent's strength was extraordinary, and every move was full of murderous intent. However, she did not retreat at all, but became more and more courageous.

"Yun Ji, be careful!" Xuanyuan Jue shouted. He had just repelled an enemy and immediately rushed to support.

"Let's see who dares to stand in our way!" The leader roared, and a strange black light began to glow from his body. His momentum suddenly increased, and his movements became even faster.

At this critical moment, Wu Junyao made a powerful attack and successfully attacked from the side, breaking the leader's defense. Xuanyuan Jue followed closely behind and stabbed him down with a sword.

Before the leader died, a strange smile appeared on his face: "You...can't stop...the tide of time..."

After the battle, the three stood together, panting. Yun Ji looked deep into the cave and saw an ancient book placed on the altar.

"What is this?" Yun Ji walked forward and carefully turned the pages of the book, which contained various forbidden techniques and prophecies of the future.

"I'm afraid this is the core of the enemy's conspiracy." Wu Junyao said, frowning and thinking for a moment, "We have to take this book back and study it carefully."

Yun Ji nodded and put away the books. The three of them quickly evacuated the cave and returned to the castle. When they returned to the castle, Jiang Yanwan had already finished treating the wounded and was directing everyone to deal with the aftermath.

"We succeeded." Yun Ji showed the book to Jiang Yanwan, "This book records their plans and techniques."

Jiang Yanwan took the book and smiled. "Great! With these, we can prevent their next move in advance."
