Huanzhu Time Travel: Yan Luo's Unbreakable Love in the Yong Dynasty

Inside the secret chamber, Xiao Yanzi and Hongli stood ready. Xiao Yanzi clenched her fists, her eyes resolute: "Your Majesty, no matter how many people come, we cannot back down!"

Hongli nodded slightly: "I will fight alongside you and will not let them succeed."

Moments later, the Shadow Society members burst through the door to the secret chamber. In an instant, the mechanisms activated, and arrows shot out from all directions, instantly felling several enemies.

Little Swallow shouted, "Let's show you what we're made of!"

But the Shadow Order members were no pushovers either. They reacted quickly, with some throwing shields to deflect the arrows while the rest continued to advance.

Hongli calmly manipulated the mechanism and said, "Little Swallow, don't panic, we have other mechanisms."

At this moment, a leader of the Shadow Society sneered, "Hmph, you think these traps can stop us? Today, you won't escape!"

Little Swallow retorted angrily, "Don't be so smug, Prince Hongzhou will come to our rescue soon!"

The leader laughed loudly: "Hongzhou? He can't even protect himself! We've already set up numerous ambushes along the way; it's uncertain whether he'll even make it to the Prime Minister's residence!"

Little Swallow's heart tightened, but she still stubbornly said, "I don't believe it! Hongzhou wouldn't abandon us!"

Outside the Prime Minister's residence, Hong Zhou, leading the remaining experts, was struggling to break through the Shadow Society's blockade. He brandished his sword and roared, "Get out of my way!"

His men shouted in unison, each one incredibly brave, as they gradually approached the gates of the Prime Minister's residence.

Upon seeing Hongzhou inside the mansion, Lin Yuxuan excitedly shouted, "The Prince is here! We're saved!"

The guards of the Prime Minister's residence were greatly encouraged and resisted even more fiercely.

Hongzhou stormed into the Prime Minister's residence, cutting down enemies along the way, heading straight for the secret chamber. He shouted, "Brother, sister-in-law, I'm late!"

At this moment, the battle in the secret chamber intensified. Xiao Yanzi and Hongli worked together, using mechanisms to repel the enemy's attacks time and time again.

Hongli said, "Little Swallow, hang in there a little longer, Hongzhou will be here soon."

Little Swallow replied, "Okay, I can still hold on!"

Just as the Shadow Society was preparing to launch their final assault, Hong Zhou arrived at the secret chamber. He charged into the enemy ranks like a god descending to earth, his sword flashing, and enemies fell one after another.

Hongzhou shouted, "You bunch of scoundrels, how dare you threaten my elder brother and sister-in-law! I will not let you off easily!"

With Hongzhou's help, Xiaoyanzi and Hongli finally escaped danger. As everyone emerged from the secret chamber, they looked at the chaotic state of the Prime Minister's residence, their hearts filled with emotion.

Hongzhou said, "Brother, sister-in-law, we should not stay here any longer. Let's return to the palace first and then discuss this further."

Hongli nodded: "Alright, let's go back to the palace first. The Shadow Society is more powerful than we imagined, and we must devise a good plan to deal with it."

Little Swallow looked at Hongzhou and said gratefully, "Hongzhou, we owe you so much this time. If you hadn't arrived in time, we really wouldn't know what to do."

Hongzhou smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, you're too kind. Protecting my brother and sister-in-law is my responsibility."

Upon returning to the palace, Consort Ling hurriedly greeted them: "Your Majesty, Your Highness, Miss Xiao Yanzi, you're finally back! I was so worried about you."

Hongli said, "I'm sorry to have worried my beloved consort. These shadowy figures will only become more rampant, and I must find their lair as soon as possible and wipe them out in one fell swoop."

Hongzhou said, "Your Majesty, I think we can start with the account books we found earlier and see if we can find more clues about their lair."

Little Swallow chimed in, "Hongzhou is right. There must be some secrets in those ledgers that we haven't discovered yet."

So the three of them went to the study and carefully examined the account books again. After some searching, they discovered a suspicious location—an abandoned ancient temple outside the city.

Hongzhou said, "Brother, this ancient temple is in a remote location, and it is very likely to be the hideout of the Shadow Society."

Hongli pondered for a moment: "We cannot act rashly. Let's send someone to investigate first, and then make a plan after confirming the truth."

Little Swallow said, "Your Majesty is wise. We must not fall into their trap again."

Meanwhile, the Shadow Society was also secretly plotting a new scheme. They held a secret meeting in an ancient temple, where a mysterious figure said, "They escaped this time, but it doesn't matter. We have a backup plan; we'll make sure they wreak havoc in the court and among the common people!"

The crowd echoed in unison, and an evil aura permeated the ancient temple. Will Xiao Yanzi and Hongli be able to successfully thwart the Shadow Society's new conspiracy? What role will Hongzhou play in this struggle? The situation inside and outside the palace grows increasingly tense, as if a massive storm is about to break, drawing everyone into its grip. The gears of fate turn relentlessly, and the future is full of uncertainties and challenges.
