The night was dim, and the lights of the capital were dim, covering up the depth of the palace and the tranquility of the ancient city. In a secret mansion in the city, Su Yuchen and Chu Xuanhao were having a secret conversation.

"Chen Shuyin is going to Yanshan, and Chen Qiyu is going to Wushan to find an antidote for Gu Qingchen?" Chu Xuanhao frowned, with a hint of doubt and displeasure in his voice.

Su Yuchen nodded, a hint of cunning and ruthlessness flashed in his eyes: "That's right, they thought their plan was thorough, but they didn't know that this was a good opportunity for us to take action."

Chu Xuanhao sneered: "In the capital, we may still have some concerns, but since they dare to leave this heavy protection, they are courting death."

Su Yuchen smiled smugly when he heard this: "Chu Xuanhao, you and I both know that these two people are the hope of the Chen family. If we can get rid of them together..."

"Then the Chen family will never be able to recover." Chu Xuanhao said, his eyes revealing coldness and determination.

The two smiled at each other, the tacit understanding in their hearts was self-evident.

Now that the plan has been decided, the next step is to take action. Su Yuchen stood up and stretched her muscles. Her eyes were full of excitement and anticipation. "Chu Xuanhao, leave Chen Shuyin to me. I will let her know how foolish it is to leave the protection of the capital."

Chu Xuanhao also stood up, his eyes firm and cold: "I will deal with Chen Qiyu. Don't worry, we will make the Chen family pay a heavy price this time."

The two smiled at each other, as if they had seen the dawn of victory. They began to discuss the action plan in detail, not missing any details, and making sure it was foolproof.

As the moonlight deepened, two groups of dark shadows quietly left the capital and headed towards Yanshan and Wushan respectively.

Su Yuchen arrived at Yanshan quietly with a group of elite assassins. They hid in the dense woods, their eyes fixed on the small house at the foot of the mountain.

"Are you sure Chen Shuyin is in there?" Su Yuchen asked in a low voice.

"It is absolutely true," a spy replied, "We have been following her for several days. She does live here, and she does not seem to be aware of our presence."

Su Yuchen sneered: "That's good. Tonight is the day she dies."

Night fell, and the stars were sparse. At Su Yuchen's command, everyone approached the hut like ghosts. Their steps were light and quick, for fear of alerting the enemy.

However, just as they were about to launch the attack, the door of the hut suddenly opened and a figure flashed out.

Su Yuchen's face froze in an instant. She thought it would be Chen Shuyin who came out to greet her, but she didn't expect that it was Chen Qiyu who showed up. Under the moonlight, Chen Qiyu's figure seemed particularly calm and firm, as unshakable as a mountain.

"Don't hide it anymore, just come out now." Chen Qiyu's tone was filled with disdain and provocation. She seemed to have sensed the murderous aura around her.

Su Yuchen thought to herself that this was not going to be good, but she was an old hand after all, so she quickly regained her composure. She waved her hand and walked out from the darkness with a group of capable black-clad assassins. Everyone's eyes were filled with ruthlessness and determination, like a group of hungry cheetahs staring at their prey.

"Why is it you? Where is Chen Shuyin?" Su Yuchen tried to find some clues from Chen Qiyu's face, but the latter's expression remained the same, as calm as a pool of stagnant water.

"Since he is not in Yanshan, he must be in Wushan." Chen Qiyu's answer made Su Yuchen's heart tighten, but she soon relaxed. Chu Xuanhao had already led people to Wushan, so Chen Shuyin should be worry-free. Now, all she had to do was deal with Chen Qiyu in front of her.

However, Chen Qiyu did not seem to be in a hurry to take action. She drew out her sword, pointed the tip of the sword at Su Yuchen, and said calmly: "That may not be the case. Before she died, you were the first one to fall."

Su Yuchen was enraged by Chen Qiyu's arrogance. She snapped her fingers and her men immediately rushed towards Chen Qiyu like a tide. The weapons in their hands flashed with cold light, and every swing was full of deadly killing intent.

Chen Qiyu was not afraid at all, she moved swiftly among the men in black, her sword dancing like a snake, every time she drew her sword, there was a scream and a splash of blood.

The battle entered a fierce stage, and Su Yuchen also joined the battle. Her movements were strange and unpredictable, and the short sword in her hand was even more elusive, making it difficult to defend against. However, Chen Qiyu seemed to always be able to predict her movements in advance, and every attack was cleverly resolved by her.

As time went by, the situation on the battlefield gradually became clear. Although Chen Qiyu was alone, her strength was far beyond the imagination of Su Yuchen and others. Her swordsmanship was superb, and every swing of her sword could take a life. Although Su Yuchen's men were numerous, they were like lambs to be slaughtered and unable to resist under Chen Qiyu's sword.

Seeing her men fall one by one, Su Yuchen's heart was filled with despair. She knew that she had failed this time, and she had failed completely. She waved the dagger in her hand unwillingly, trying to make a final struggle, but Chen Qiyu did not give her any chance.

A sword pierced through her heart, and Su Yuchen's struggle came to an abrupt end. Her body slowly fell down, and the light in her eyes gradually dimmed. She never understood until her death why she was defeated so thoroughly.

Chen Qiyu put away her sword and turned away. She knew that her mission was not yet completed and Chen Shuyin was still waiting for her rescue in Wushan. She had to rush to Wushan to fight Chu Xuanhao as soon as possible to ensure Chen Shuyin's safety.

In the night, Chen Qiyu's figure gradually faded away, leaving only corpses on the ground and a sky full of stars. Although this battle is over, the road ahead is still very long...

On the other side of Wushan, Chu Xuanhao was marching quickly with his men. They had been traveling through the mountains and forests for several days, but still could not find any trace of Chen Shuyin. This made Chu Xuanhao's heart full of doubts and uneasiness. He didn't know where Chen Shuyin was hiding, and he didn't know whether she had learned the results of the battle in Yanshan.

At this moment, the men who were exploring the way ahead suddenly ran back and reported in a panic, "Sir, it's bad! We spotted a team ahead. Judging from their attire, they should be the Chen family's guards!"

Chu Xuanhao was inspired by what he said and immediately ordered the whole army to speed up. Not long after, they saw the Chen family guards. Both sides quickly deployed their troops and a battle was about to break out.

However, just as the battle was about to begin, Chu Xuanhao suddenly spotted a familiar figure walking out of the Chen family guards. It was Chen Shuyin! She actually came to fight in person!
