Chapter 441 Success

The guard rushed in, his face pale, holding a secret letter in his hand.

"Your Highness, it's bad! There is news that Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang have found the key to controlling the Shenjing formation and are preparing to take action during the grand sacrifice!"

When King Chen heard this, he stood up suddenly, with a fierce look in his eyes.

"How dare they be so bold! Gather the Yun Xiaoqi immediately, I will go to stop them in person!"

The guard took the order and hurriedly retreated.

King Chen held the secret letter tightly, his heart burning with anger. He knew that once Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang mastered the Shenjing formation, his plan would be completely thwarted.

However, just as he was about to leave, another piece of news came. This time, it was the head of the Netherworld Pavilion who came in person.

"Your Highness, don't be impatient. Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang may have deliberately lured you there. They may have set a trap and waited for you to fall into it." The head of the Netherworld Pavilion spoke calmly and analyzed it clearly.

Upon hearing this, King Chen's anger subsided a little, but his anxiety did not dissipate. "Then according to the Pavilion Master's opinion, what should I do?"

The Pavilion Master of the Netherworld Pavilion smiled slightly, with a sly look in his eyes.

"Your Highness, why not take advantage of their tricks? We can pretend to believe their rumors, make arrangements in secret, and wait for them to take action during the grand sacrifice, and then we can capture them in one fell swoop."

A gleam of light flashed in King Chen's eyes upon hearing this.

He knew that the Pavilion Master of the Netherworld Pavilion's strategy might work. So he decided to act according to the Pavilion Master of the Netherworld Pavilion's plan.

On the day of the grand sacrifice, a mysterious and solemn atmosphere permeated the capital.

Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang, dressed in gorgeous clothes, stood on the altar of the grand sacrifice, ready to start the ceremony.

"Fang Yue, do you think that King Chen will come? Will he be fooled?"

Zhu Linlang asked softly, with a hint of nervousness and expectation in his eyes. Fang Yue smiled lightly, looking into the distance with a firm gaze, as if he could penetrate the crowd and see every conspiracy hidden in the dark.

"Linlang, King Chen is ambitious and will not sit idly by and watch our actions. Although the Lord of the Netherworld Pavilion has many clever tricks, human desires and fears are often the most difficult variables to calculate. As long as we control him properly, he will definitely take the bait." Fang Yue's tone was steady, revealing an unquestionable confidence.

"Moreover," he changed the subject, his eyes became sharper.

"Moreover, we have made all the preparations. Even if King Chen does not take the bait, we have ways to deal with various situations. Today, we must let King Chen see our determination and strength." Fang Yue's voice was firm and powerful.

Zhu Linlang nodded slightly, and the tension in her heart was slightly relieved. She knew that Fang Yue's judgment had always been accurate. They had come to this point and must not retreat.

As the ceremony progressed, mysterious runes flickered in the air, and green smoke from the incense burner rose. The whole capital seemed to be immersed in a mysterious atmosphere.

In the dark, King Chen and the Lord of the Netherworld Pavilion were also nervously observing the situation. They waited for the best opportunity to deal a fatal blow to Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang.

However, they didn't know that Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang had already noticed their presence. They cleverly set up some traps in the ceremony, waiting for King Chen and others to fall into the trap.

As time passed, the ceremony gradually entered a critical stage. Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang were concentrating on controlling the ceremony, but they were always alert to the movements around them.

At this moment, King Chen finally couldn't hold back and ordered an attack. Yun Xiaoqi rushed out like a tide and rushed towards the altar.

But they had just rushed halfway when they triggered the trap set by Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang. For a time, the flames soared into the sky and the smoke filled the air. Yun Xiaoqi fell into chaos.

Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang took the opportunity to speed up the progress of the ceremony.

They knew that now was the most critical moment.

King Chen had been attracted, so Zhu Linlang would be able to leave here and truly master the formation.

This great sacrifice had also completed the task of attracting the enemy.

Zhu Linlang made a prompt decision and quietly left the altar during the chaos, rushing towards the key location that controlled the Shenjing formation. Fang Yue continued to stay at the altar, commanding everyone to deal with King Chen's attack and buy time for Zhu Linlang.

King Chen quickly noticed Zhu Linlang's movements in the chaos, and his heart tightened, knowing that he had been tricked. But at this time, he had no time to care too much, so he could only order some of the Yun Xiaoqi to continue attacking the altar while sending elite troops to chase Zhu Linlang.

Seeing this, the head of the Netherworld Pavilion also hurriedly adjusted his strategy. He sent out the disciples of the Netherworld Pavilion, some of whom assisted King Chen in attacking Fang Yue, and the other part to track Zhu Linlang.

"Your opponent is me!"

Seeing this scene, Fang Yue laughed, his eyes revealing determination and fearlessness.

"Today, none of you can try to stop our plan."

He waved the long sword in his hand, and the sword energy was crisscrossed, forcing back the few enemies who rushed to the front.

Those Yun Xiaoqi and Youming Pavilion disciples were frightened by Fang Yue's momentum, and for a moment they dared not move forward.

But they soon launched another attack under the urging of King Chen and the Pavilion Master of Youming Pavilion.

Fang Yue was not afraid at all. He moved freely among the crowd like lightning, and waved his long sword continuously, with each move carrying powerful force.

These Yun Xiaoqi, who were extremely powerful for ordinary warriors, were no different from paper in front of Fang Yue.

Fang Yue's bravery frightened the Yun Xiaoqi and Youming Pavilion disciples, but they had to continue the attack under the pressure of King Chen and the Pavilion Master of Youming Pavilion.

Fang Yue resisted the enemy's attack while looking for an opportunity to counterattack.

His figure shuttled through the crowd like a ghost, and every time he attacked, he could accurately hit the enemy's vital points.

Although the Yun Xiaoqi were well-trained, they gradually began to fall into chaos in front of Fang Yue's powerful strength.

The disciples of the Netherworld Pavilion were good at secret operations and spying, but they seemed a little powerless in frontal combat.

They tried to use hidden weapons and poisons to deal with Fang Yue, but Fang Yue relied on his keen perception to avoid their attacks again and again.

As time went on, King Chen and others were still blocked.

"We can't wait any longer, please take action!"

Finally, he couldn't hold back and gave orders to the three grandmasters beside him.

Each of these three grandmasters was a powerful man who shocked the world. Their strength was unfathomable and was their last trump card.

When the three grandmasters heard this, a cold light flashed in their eyes.

They had been waiting for a long time, and now they finally got the opportunity to take action.

They stretched out their bodies and rushed towards Fang Yue like three lightning bolts, with the weapons in their hands flashing cold light and carrying destructive power.

Fang Yue felt the powerful aura of the three grandmasters, and a sense of pride surged in his heart.

He knew that this would be a life-and-death battle, but he was not afraid.

He suddenly jumped up, waving his long sword like the wind, and started a fierce battle with the three grandmasters.

The battle between Fang Yue and the three grandmasters was extremely fierce, with sword energy and palm wind intertwined, and the sound of weapons colliding was endless.

"Hmph, kid, today is the day you die." A grandmaster shouted coldly.

Fang Yue's eyes shone, and he responded: "Then let's try and see who can laugh last."

Another grandmaster waved his palm, and the powerful internal force came like a surging wave: "You don't know how high the sky is, and you will die."

Fang Yue dodged to the side, and the long sword stabbed out: "You are accomplices of the tiger, today I will enforce justice on behalf of the heaven."

The three grandmasters cooperated tacitly and continued to attack Fang Yue. Although Fang Yue was powerful, he gradually felt exhausted.

"Boy, no matter how much you struggle, it's in vain." The third grandmaster said.

Fang Yue gritted his teeth and said firmly: "I won't let you succeed, King Chen's ambition must be stopped."

Just as Fang Yue was fighting fiercely with the three grandmasters, King Chen watched anxiously on the side.

"Quick, take him down for me." King Chen roared.

The master of the Netherworld Pavilion looked solemn, and he knew the key to this battle.

"Your Highness, Fang Yue's strength is beyond our expectations. The three Grandmasters may not be able to win quickly." The Master of the Netherworld Pavilion said.

King Chen glared at him: "Why don't you help?"

The Master of the Netherworld Pavilion hesitated and said: "Your Highness, the disciples of the Netherworld Pavilion are good at acting in secret, and frontal combat is not our forte. However, I will let the disciples find opportunities to interfere with Fang Yue."

At this time, Fang Yue was besieged by the three Grandmasters and had been injured in many places, but his fighting spirit was still high.

"Do you think you can defeat me like this? Too naive." Fang Yue shouted and used his ultimate move.

The long sword was swung, and a powerful sword energy swept towards the three Grandmasters. The three Grandmasters hurriedly resisted, but they were also shocked by this powerful force and took a few steps back.

"This kid is so tenacious." A Grandmaster said in surprise.

Another Grandmaster frowned: "We can't delay any longer, we must get rid of him as soon as possible."

The three Grandmasters launched a more fierce attack again, and Fang Yue fell into a more difficult situation.

At the key location of the Shenjing formation, Zhu Linlang was also nervously carrying out the final operation. She was concerned about Fang Yue and knew that she had to master the formation as soon as possible before she could support him.

"Fang Yue, you must hold on." Zhu Linlang prayed silently.

Zhu Linlang concentrated on operating the formation, and fine beads of sweat gradually oozed out of her forehead. Her hands quickly changed the spells, trying to activate the core power of the Shenjing formation as soon as possible.

At the same time, Fang Yue's battle with the three grandmasters became more and more intense. Fang Yue's wounds continued to increase, but his eyes became more and more determined.

"Even if I die, I won't let you succeed." Fang Yue roared, and waved his sword again to meet the attack of the three grandmasters.

A grandmaster sneered: "You are just struggling in vain."

Another grandmaster continued: "Give up, you have no chance of winning."

Fang Yue ignored their ridicule and continued to resist stubbornly. Just when he was about to collapse, he suddenly felt a powerful force coming from a distance.

Zhu Linlang finally succeeded in mastering the Shenjing formation. The light of the formation instantly enveloped the entire capital. Fang Yue felt this power and was overjoyed.

"Haha, your doomsday has come." Fang Yue laughed.

The three grandmasters noticed the power of the formation and their faces changed drastically. They knew that the situation had reversed.

When King Chen saw this scene, he was filled with despair. "How could this happen?" He roared unwillingly.

The head of the Netherworld Pavilion also realized that the situation was over, and he quietly began to plan a retreat.

At this time, Zhu Linlang controlled the power of the Shenjing formation and quickly rushed towards Fang Yue's direction. Her eyes were full of anger and determination.

"King Chen, your ambition ends here." Zhu Linlang shouted, and the power of the Shenjing formation instantly pressed towards King Chen and the three grandmasters.

The three grandmasters tried to resist this powerful force, but they found that they could not resist it at all. In the end, they had to give up resistance and turn around to flee.

King Chen saw that his plan failed completely, and his heart was filled with regret. But it was too late at this time, he was firmly trapped by the power of Shenjing formation.

Fang Yue looked at King Chen trapped by the power of the Shenjing formation and breathed a sigh of relief. Although the wounds on his body were painful, the joy of victory made him temporarily forget the pain.

"Prince Chen, your ambition was finally shattered." Fang Yue said coldly.

King Chen looked unwilling and glared at Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang: "Don't be complacent. Today's defeat was due to my negligence. If there is a next time, I will never let you succeed again."

Zhu Linlang glanced at King Chen contemptuously: "You will not have another chance. The Wei Dynasty will not let you do anything wrong again."

At this time, the master of Netherworld Pavilion saw that the situation was not good and was about to sneak away quietly. However, Fang Yue had already noticed his move and rushed forward, blocking his way.

"Master of the Netherworld Pavilion, do you think you can escape easily? You colluded with King Chen and you should pay the price for your actions." Fang Yue stared at the Master of the Netherworld Pavilion with sharp eyes.

The master of the Netherworld Pavilion felt nervous and said calmly: "Mr. Fang, Miss Zhu, I am also being forced by King Chen. It is really a helpless act. I hope you will be noble and let me go."

Zhu Linlang sneered: "Huh, you Netherworld Pavilion is usually good at doing things secretly, and now you are involved in such a conspiracy, how can I let you go so easily."

The master of Netherworld Pavilion looked pale, knowing that he could not escape. He rolled his eyes and said hurriedly: "I, Netherworld Pavilion, are willing to serve the Wei Dynasty and atone for my sins. As long as you let me go, I promise that Netherworld Pavilion will not participate in any conspiracy in the future."

Fang Yue narrowed his eyes slightly, thought for a moment and said: "Okay, since you Netherworld Pavilion is willing to serve the Wei Dynasty, we will give you a chance. But if you have second thoughts again, we will not let you go lightly."

The master of Youming Pavilion nodded in agreement: "Thank you Mr. Fang and Miss Zhu for your magnanimity. Youming Pavilion will definitely remember today's lesson and serve the Wei Dynasty wholeheartedly."

At this time, the situation in the capital gradually stabilized. Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang knew that although King Chen's conspiracy had been temporarily defeated, they still could not take it lightly.

"Fang Yue, now King Chen has been captured, and the Shenjing formation is also under our control, but the royal family and other forces are still peeking in secret, and we must not relax our vigilance." Zhu Linlang said worriedly.

Fang Yue nodded: "Yes, we must strengthen the defense of the capital and pay close attention to the movements of all forces. Only in this way can we ensure the stability of the Wei Dynasty." (End of Chapter)
