Jiang Luo sneered, then took out a bronze mirror from his bosom and chanted an obscure spell. In the blink of an eye, a strong wind blew up, the whistling sound was deafening, dark clouds rolled in, blocking the moon's brilliance, and the entire ground instantly became chaotic and the vision was blurred.

Lan Wangshu knew that this was Jiang Luo's last struggle, so she shouted loudly: "Everyone, don't panic, hold your ground!"

The oil-paper umbrella in her hand danced like a dancing fairy, with the tip of the umbrella pointing directly at Jiang Luo in front of her. A dazzling light flashed by, the bronze mirror fell to the ground, and the strong wind also weakened.

In this melee, Lan Wangshu fought back with his immense strength, while the others fought fiercely with Jiang Luo and his followers. They had a tacit understanding and cooperated with each other, gradually gaining an advantage. In the end, with the help of the soldiers under the King of Qin, Jiang Luo was pinned to the ground and could no longer play any tricks.

The King of Qin arrived at the scene in time and witnessed this thrilling scene. When he saw Jiang Luo surrender, he was shocked and secretly glad.

When he learned the truth of the matter, he was furious and extremely angry.

He never thought that he would almost be deceived by Jiang Luo. If Lan Wangshu and Lan Wansu had not reminded him in time, the consequences would have been disastrous.

Although there was indeed a cooperative relationship between the King of Qin and Jiang Luo, the power that the King of Qin pursued was also based on the premise that Dai Viet could survive forever.

However, it was naturally impossible for the King of Qin to have a very friendly relationship with Lan Wangshu. They only chose to form a temporary alliance out of considerations of their own interests.

"Lan Wangshu, I underestimated you!"

Jiang Luo slowly raised his head, his face was in disarray, his eyes were wide open, the corners of his eyes were almost torn, and his eyes revealed sinister viciousness and strong murderous intent. He spoke fiercely, his tone was icy and resolute.

But at this moment, something unexpected happened - Jiang Luo's body began to twist and deform strangely, and finally turned into a pile of poisonous insects that scattered everywhere!

When the King of Qin saw this scene, his face turned pale as paper in an instant, and his eyes were full of astonishment and resentment. He clenched his teeth tightly, clenched his hands into fists, and trembled slightly, as if he was trying his best to suppress the surging emotions in his heart.

His brows were tightly furrowed and his expression was extremely solemn and cold, like an active volcano about to erupt.

"Lan Wangshu?"

The King of Qin frowned and pondered for a long time before he turned back suspiciously and cast his eyes on Lan Wangshu. He muttered to himself, "That's not right! The envoy should be Li Bai! Could it be that...she is really from Jiang Luo's side?"

At this moment, a man like a demon came over slowly with light steps. He was tall and straight, with a majestic demeanor, and his every move revealed an otherworldly and elegant temperament. The silk that was originally covering his eyes was now put back on.

The King of Qin's gaze stayed on Lan Wansu for a while, and then moved back to Lan Wangshu. His eyes were full of curiosity and doubt, as if he wanted to see through Lan Wangshu's beautiful appearance and see her true thoughts deep in her heart.

"Is all this a conspiracy you carefully planned? Lan Wansu, I underestimated you!" The words of the King of Qin revealed a subtle solemnity. It was obvious that he was amazed at the wisdom and strategy displayed by the young man in front of him, and he was dissatisfied with his previous contempt.

Lan Wansu held his head high and stood straight. He first turned his head to look at Lan Wangshu beside him, and then responded calmly: "That's right, Your Highness Prince Qin. In fact, we have long begun to doubt Jiang Luo's ambitions. Her various actions not only pose a serious threat to Dai Viet, but even Da Zhao is not immune. What's more hateful is that she actually uses poison to control people's minds! Faced with such a situation, we really can't sit idly by and do nothing. We must take decisive action."

King Qin was silent for a while, then nodded slowly.

"You have done a great job, and I will remember your contribution. However, there will still be necessary challenges, so be prepared." Lan Wansu spoke at this time, his voice carrying an unquestionable majesty.

"Thank you, Your Highness, the Prince of Qin. I wish us a happy cooperation." Lan Wangshu bowed slightly to express his gratitude. He knew that the Prince of Qin in front of him was not an easy person to deal with, and the road to future cooperation might not be smooth.

King Qin nodded slightly and turned to look at the scattered insects. Under the moonlight, these insects were like Jiang Luo's final incarnation. They were wriggling on the cold ground, revealing a strange and mysterious aura.

The King of Qin knew that although the storm had subsided temporarily, the hidden forces behind it were still ready to make a move. He secretly made up his mind to strengthen his defenses to prevent the enemy from making a comeback.

Lan Wangshu and Lan Wansu looked at each other and understood each other. They knew that this victory was just the beginning, and there would be more challenges waiting for them. In order to completely eradicate the forces behind Jiang Luo, they needed to conduct a more in-depth investigation and not let go of any hidden dangers.

After bidding farewell to the King of Qin, the two left silently. They had an important mission, not only to make the King of Qin clearly aware of the strength of his side, but also to ensure that he could follow them to Dazhao obediently to avoid any accidents along the way.

In this way, a period of peace passed. Lan Wangshu handed the sorted documents to the embassy post, which meant that they were one step closer to their goal. However, under the seemingly calm surface, undercurrents were surging, and a bigger storm might be brewing...

A few days later, the sun was shining brightly, and Lan Wangshu and Lan Wansu were concentrating on studying how to strengthen defense measures to ensure the safety of the city. Just as they were immersed in their thoughts, a nervous spy hurried over and broke the peace.

The spy knelt on one knee and reported hurriedly: "Sir, a group of unknown people were found outside the city!" Hearing this, Lan Wangshu and Lan Wansu looked at each other, and an ominous premonition surged in their hearts. They knew the severity of the situation and could not take it lightly. So, the two of them stood up without hesitation, led a team of elite soldiers, and rushed to the scene to check the situation.

When they arrived outside the city, they saw a group of mysterious figures. These people were wearing black battle robes and were aggressive, and it was obvious that they had come with bad intentions. Lan Wangshu had sharp eyes and was watching the enemy's movements from a distance with a telescope in hand. She noticed that there was nothing special about the black-robed man in the lead, but the scepter in his hand aroused her vigilance.

"I seem to have seen this person before..." Lan Wangshu muttered to herself. She tried to recall, and a similar scepter appeared in her mind. At the same time, Lan Wansu's face changed slightly, and an exquisite model appeared in his hand. After careful comparison, the two confirmed that they were exactly the same - the black-robed man in front of them was exactly the same as the man next to the third son of the Wen family!

"It's him, there's no doubt about it." Lan Wansu's voice was filled with a hint of surprise and confusion. Lan Wangshu frowned and fell into deep thought. She had to find out the true identity of this man and the relationship between him and Jiang Luo. Did he take the initiative to join Jiang Luo, or was he forced to be controlled by Jiang Luo?

After thinking for a while, Lan Wangshu made a prompt decision and issued an order: "Bring back the man in black robes for interrogation!" Her eyes were firm, and she was determined to solve the mystery. The soldiers took the order and took action quickly. Not long after, the man in black robes was tied up and brought back to the camp.

After Lan Wangshu returned to the camp, she personally interrogated this key figure. She sat in the interrogation room, quietly watching the black-robed man in front of her, not missing any of his subtle expressions and movements. She knew that important clues might be found from these details. Time passed, and the black-robed man remained silent, as if he was resisting stubbornly. However, Lan Wangshu was not impatient. With her keen insight and intelligence, she gradually broke through the other party's psychological defenses. Finally, after a long confrontation, the black-robed man showed a hint of hesitation in his eyes. Lan Wangshu seized the opportunity and asked gently: "Tell me, who are you? Why do you hold such a scepter? What is your relationship with Jiang Luo?"

The man in black robe bowed his head and thought for a moment, then slowly opened his mouth and told his story. It turned out that his name was Ye Ying, and he was an ordinary person in the martial arts world. By chance, he got the mysterious scepter and found that it contained powerful power. However, this power attracted Jiang Luo's covetousness. Jiang Luo threatened Ye Ying to join his camp, otherwise he would kill him. In desperation, Ye Ying had to succumb to Jiang Luo's power.

Lan Wangshu listened to Ye Ying's narration, and her mind gradually became clear. She realized that Ye Ying did not really join Jiang Luo, but was forced. This made her see a turning point in solving the problem. Lan Wangshu decided to use this opportunity to persuade Ye Ying to change sides and fight against Jiang Luo together. So, she patiently communicated with Ye Ying, explaining to him the difference between justice and evil, and the consequences of betrayal. Ye Ying's heart began to struggle, and he realized that he had been going further and further on the wrong path.

After careful consideration, Ye Ying finally made a decision. He raised his head, his eyes flashing with determination, and said to Lan Wangshu: "I am willing to help you and draw a clear line between you and Jiang Luo!" Lan Wangshu smiled happily, she knew that this decision would bring them more hope and a chance of victory.

Next, they will work together to develop strategies to meet the upcoming challenges.

When she mentioned the encounter at the Wen family, the black-robed man's reaction confirmed her suspicion that he did know her. This made Lan Wangshu more convinced that there were more unknown secrets behind this man named Mo Ya.

Mo Ya sat opposite her, his face pale and his eyes evasive, obviously trying to hide something. Lan Wangshu observed him calmly, but her mind was racing, thinking about how to pry open his mouth. She decided to ask tentative questions first to see if he would reveal any flaws.

"Mo Ya, I noticed you when you were at the Wen family." Lan Wangshu said calmly, "Your behavior at that time made me feel that you were not simple."

Mo Ya's body trembled violently. He stared at Lan Wangshu nervously, as if hesitating whether to speak. Lan Wangshu continued, "I know you didn't follow Jiang Luo voluntarily. Tell me, how did you fall into her hands?"

Mo Ya was silent for a while, and finally sighed and began to tell his story. It turned out that he was the leader of the Sea Spirit Cult, but was captured by Jiang Luo by accident and forced to work for her. He revealed a lot about Jiang Luo's new plans and her bigger plot, which was very important to Lan Wangshu.

After Lan Wangshu finished listening, a gleam of light flashed in her eyes. She understood that there was great value hidden in Mo Ya's words, but it could also be a trap. She needed to verify the authenticity of this information.

"I will send someone to verify what you said." Lan Wangshu responded calmly, "But if it is true, we can consider cooperation."

Mo Ya raised his head, a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes. He knew that this was his only way out, and perhaps only by cooperating with Lan Wangshu could he escape Jiang Luo's control.

After Lan Wangshu and Lan Wansu discussed, they decided to use the information provided by Mo Ya to develop a new strategy. They began to plan how to destroy Jiang Luo's new plan while protecting themselves from it. They knew that this would be another tough battle, but they were fully prepared.

A few days later, based on Mo Ya's intelligence, Lan Wangshu and Lan Wansu led their troops to attack and successfully thwarted another conspiracy of Jiang Luo. This action not only weakened Jiang Luo's power, but also allowed the King of Qin to see their strength and loyalty.
