The Legend of the Princess' Counterattack

Chapter 384 Secret Operation

Yun Yao and Chu Mochen knew that this operation was of great importance. If they failed, not only would they be in danger, but their sect would also be doomed. After formulating a detailed plan, they did not dare to delay for a moment and quickly gathered a group of elite disciples.

These disciples are all the best in the sect, all of them have firm eyes and full of trust in Yun Yao and Chu Mochen. Late at night before departure, everyone gathered together. Yun Yao looked at everyone with a solemn expression, and said softly but forcefully: "This operation is full of dangers. We are facing an extremely evil and powerful force. But for the sake of the sect, for our relatives and friends, we must take the initiative to attack and strangle it in the cradle. Everyone must be careful and obey orders. If there is any change, the first priority is to save your own life." The disciples nodded one after another, with a determined light in their eyes.

Chu Mochen then added: "We have set up many traps around the enemy's stronghold, which is our advantage. But the enemy is cunning and we must not take it lightly. After entering the stronghold, once the alarm is triggered, the situation will get out of control in an instant, so we must act quickly, accurately and ruthlessly." After that, he unfolded the stronghold map that he had drawn in advance, and explained in detail every key location and possible dangers to everyone.

After all the instructions were completed, everyone put on night clothes and headed towards the base of the evil forces in the dark. The night was as dark as ink, and the wind was howling, as if playing the prelude to this thrilling adventure. They shuttled between the mountains and forests, with light steps, trying not to make any sound. Yun Yao walked in the front of the team, relying on her keen perception, always alert to the movements around her. Chu Mochen stayed behind to make sure that no enemies were following.

After several hours of rapid travel, they finally arrived near the stronghold. From a distance, the stronghold was hidden in a deep valley, surrounded by steep cliffs, with only a narrow path leading into it, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack. Yun Yao raised her hand to signal everyone to stop, then exchanged a glance with Chu Mochen, and the two approached quietly, preparing to first check whether the trap was intact.

They sneaked along the hidden paths around the stronghold, and saw that the traps they had set up before were cleverly hidden in the grass and under the boulders. Some were triggered spike traps. Once the enemy stepped in, the sharp stakes would suddenly pop out from the ground; some were psychedelic arrays that could disrupt the enemy's mind, causing hallucinations and disorientation; and some were hidden poison fog traps. Once triggered, the poison fog would spread, making it hard to defend against. Yun Yao and Chu Mochen checked them one by one and found that the traps were still intact, and they felt a little relieved.

After confirming that everything was correct, they returned to the team and emphasized the key points of the action again. Afterwards, Yun Yao led a group of disciples to sneak towards the east side of the stronghold, which was the material storage area of the stronghold. Their mission was to set fire to create chaos and attract the enemy's main force. Chu Mochen led another group of disciples to bypass the west side and approach the enemy's core camp, preparing to capture the leader of the evil forces in one fell swoop.

On Yunyao's side, everyone carefully avoided the patrolling guards and gradually approached the material storage area. Just as they were about to take action, a sharp alarm suddenly pierced the night sky. It turned out that a sharp-eyed guard accidentally discovered their traces and sounded the alarm in a panic. In an instant, the entire stronghold was brightly lit and shouts of killing were heard everywhere.

"Oh no, the plan has changed, let's fight quickly!" Yun Yao shouted, and rushed to the guards of the material storage area. She swung the long sword in her hand, and a sharp sword energy whistled out, instantly killing several guards. The disciples also showed their weapons and fought fiercely with the enemy. Yun Yao's figure was as fast as lightning, moving freely among the enemy groups, and wherever she went, the enemies fell one after another. But the enemies kept coming, and they gradually fell into a hard battle.

At the same time, Chu Mochen on the west side heard the alarm and his heart tightened, knowing that Yun Yao had encountered an accident. He quickened his pace and led his disciples to rush towards the core tent. On the way, they encountered stubborn resistance from the enemy. An enemy master waved a broadsword and blocked their way aggressively. Chu Mochen's eyes turned cold, and his figure flashed. In an instant, he came in front of the master, and the long spear in his hand was like a dragon out of the sea, piercing the opponent's throat. The master also reacted very quickly and quickly blocked with his sword. The two of them fought back and forth for dozens of rounds in an instant, with the shadows of guns and swords flashing, and it was difficult for others to see the moves clearly.

In the fierce battle, Chu Mochen saw a flaw in the opponent and thrust out a spear, which pierced through the chest of the master. He drew back the spear and continued to rush forward with his disciples. However, the closer they got to the core tent, the tighter the enemy's defense became. Powerful spiritual shields rose up around the tent, blocking their way.

Chu Mochen frowned, knowing that time was running out and the situation on Yun Yao's side was not optimistic. He looked around and found that the shield's energy source was on a tall tower behind the tent. He made a prompt decision and said to the disciples around him, "You stay here to contain the enemy, I'll go destroy the energy source!" After that, he used his body skills and rushed towards the tower.

Along the way, he avoided numerous traps and enemy attacks, and finally arrived at the foot of the tower. Looking up, he saw runes flickering on the tower and spiritual power surging. He took a deep breath, took a leap, and climbed up along the outer wall of the tower. Just as he was about to reach the top of the tower, an old man in a black robe suddenly appeared and blocked his way.

"Humph, you want to destroy the energy source of my sect? Wishful thinking!" The old man in black robe snorted coldly, and a ball of black flame was summoned from his hand, rushing towards Chu Mochen. Chu Mochen's eyes condensed, and the spear in his hand danced, forming a defensive light curtain to keep the flames out.

"Old man, today is the day you die!" Chu Mochen shouted, shook his spear, and used all his strength to fight the black-robed old man. The two fought hard on the top of the tower, and every move contained great power. The tower was shaken by their spiritual power.

Meanwhile, in the material storage area, Yun Yao's battle became increasingly fierce. Although the disciples fought bravely, they were outnumbered and casualties gradually increased. Yun Yao was extremely anxious. While killing the enemies, she also paid attention to the situation around her. Suddenly, she saw a strong spiritual power fluctuation coming from the west. She was startled and knew that Chu Mochen must have encountered a strong enemy.

"Everyone hold on, I'll go support Senior Brother Chu!" Yun Yao shouted, turned around, and rushed towards the direction of the spiritual power fluctuations. On the way, she was intercepted by several enemy masters, but she was extremely anxious at the moment, and her strength burst out, and she repelled the enemy in a few moves.

When she arrived at the tower, she saw Chu Mochen and the black-robed old man fighting fiercely. She joined the battle without hesitation, the long sword in her hand shone brightly, and she fought side by side with Chu Mochen. The two cooperated tacitly, and for a while they were evenly matched with the black-robed old man.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the old man in black robes wanted to retreat. He suddenly threw his hand, and a black smoke spread out, trying to block the sight of Yun Yao and Chu Mochen. The two were prepared, held their breath, and continued to chase forward. The old man in black robes took the opportunity to flee to the depths of the tower.

"We can't let him get away. This energy source is related to the defense of the entire stronghold!" Yun Yao shouted. The two of them sped up and chased after the old man in black robes. In a secret room in the tower, they finally blocked the old man in black robes.

The old man in black robe had a ferocious look on his face. He knew that it was difficult to escape today, so he risked his life and performed a strange technique. His body swelled up instantly, and black spiritual power surrounded him like a vortex, sweeping towards Yun Yao and Chu Mochen.

Yun Yao and Chu Mochen looked at each other, their eyes full of determination. They attacked at the same time, raising their spiritual power to the extreme. A bright light burst out from their hands and blasted towards the old man in black robe. Under this powerful attack, the strange skills of the old man in black robe were finally broken. He vomited blood, fell to the ground, and died.

The two of them didn't have time to catch their breath and quickly came to the energy source. They saw a huge black crystal suspended in the air, emitting a strange light, with runes flashing around it and spiritual power surging. Chu Mochen walked forward and stabbed the crystal with the spear in his hand. With a loud bang, the crystal shattered and the energy source was successfully destroyed.

Instantly, the spiritual shields around the base dissipated. Yun Yao and Chu Mochen knew that the time had come. They quickly left the tower and joined the disciples outside. At this time, the base was in chaos. Yun Yao's arson also caused great chaos. The fire spread and the material storage area was ablaze.

"Kill! We must root out this evil force today!" Yun Yao raised her arms and shouted, leading the disciples to launch a final charge towards the enemy's core camp. With everyone's concerted efforts, they finally broke through the enemy's defense line and entered the core camp. However, there was no one in the camp, only a letter on the table.

Yun Yao picked up the letter and opened it. Her face instantly turned gloomy. The letter said: "Do you think this little trick can trap us? Today I am just giving you a small lesson. The real fun is yet to come."

"Damn it, they tricked me!" Chu Mochen slammed his fist on the table, his face full of anger.

Yun Yao took a deep breath and calmed down: "They must have expected us to attack and moved their main forces in advance. We can't give up here. We must first clean up the remaining forces here and then make a long-term plan when we return."

Although they were unwilling, they knew that this was the only way to go. They launched a final cleanup operation in the base, eliminating the remaining enemies one by one. Although this secret operation did not achieve the expected goal of capturing the enemy leader, it also dealt a heavy blow to the evil forces, letting them know that the sect was not easy to mess with.

When the dawn light shines on this bloody battlefield, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen lead the tired but determined disciples on their journey home. They know that this fight against evil forces has just begun.
