The air froze as the group exchanged glances, the ragged gasps of the newcomer cutting through the tension.

"Who the hell are you?" Lu Feng broke the silence, his lips twitching. "You look like a spy sent by Old Wang next door."
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgnTXlTDaH
The man waved frantically, terror etched on his face. "No time! Run! The Bloodfiend Sect—they’re coming! They’ve gone mad!"
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB9umTeNho7
*Bloodfiend Sect.*
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1B7L1Q3YX
Lu Feng’s pupils constricted. Memories of black-clad assassins flooded back. No wonder this face felt familiar—they’d crossed paths before.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKn2WPnOAK
"You’re one of *them*?" Tuck rumbled, his greatsword twitching as if eager to cleave the man in two.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMu3Xy3ZRqW
The stranger shook his head desperately. "No! I *was*—but I defected! They’re monsters, slaughtering without blinking!"
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0c6twN420X
"Defected?" Lu Feng’s frown deepened. Enemy turncoats with sob stories weren’t exactly rare these days.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7lY0xty6T9
Ayla tugged Lu Feng’s sleeve. "Be careful. This could be a trap."
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYLxIS8p1Q
Lu Feng nodded, studying the man’s face. All he saw was raw fear and sincerity.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtemZYnHtK
"Name. Reason for betraying them. Why come to us?" Lu Feng’s tone sharpened.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5fRurfyPk
The man inhaled deeply. "Ares. I couldn’t stomach their cruelty—killing innocents, sacrificing villages. I heard you’re fighting them. I want in."
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxMwVnx2pv
Silence hung heavy.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjLejZhp66
Lu Feng’s mind raced. Trusting a former enemy was risky, but they desperately needed intel. *Fortune favors the bold.*
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU4QMko8RJv
"Prove it," Lu Feng said coldly. "What’s the Bloodfiend Sect planning? Why target me? What’s Grunn’s role?"
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8kMOnI9vcD
Ares spilled everything: The Bloodfiend Sect’s ancient roots, Grunn as their pawn in the mortal realm, their obsession with Lu Feng’s mysterious power. "They’re opening portals between realms to plunder resources. Their endgame? World domination."
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlEbrvPpYv
The weight of the revelation pressed down. What Lu Feng had assumed was personal targeting turned out to be apocalyptic ambition.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCnAjnUCMoB
"We stop them," Lu Feng declared. "Ares—ideas?"
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2WASN48rV
"Their supply depot near Dusk Citadel," Ares said urgently. "Destroy it, cripple their forces. I know the location."
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYygOPgVOY
The plan unfolded rapidly. Raphael mapped strategies while Ayla reinforced moonlit barriers. Under the Shadowfang Cat’s invisibility cloak, the strike team infiltrated the fortress-like depot—a maze of traps guarded by hulking brutes.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLlYutbL4UT
Ares guided them through secret paths, his knowledge precise. They reached the central courtyard where crates of cursed weapons gleamed under torchlight.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPzkriGdcd
"Now," Lu Feng whispered.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIS5P8bR6N
Chaos erupted. Tuck charged like a berserker, greatsword cleaving through armor. Ares’ arrows found throats and eyes with lethal precision. Lu Feng danced through enemies, blade flashing.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ54BVih4ej9
They’d cleared half the courtyard when the air turned frigid. A black-robed elder materialized, eyes burning with malice. "Insects dare challenge the Bloodfiend Sect?"
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDuu1CZaGvT
The elder’s dark energy lashed out, coiling around Lu Feng like living chains. Just as death descended, Ares threw himself in the path—taking the blow meant for Lu Feng.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWaZ7l9ZZV
"Ares!" Lu Feng caught the falling archer, blood staining his hands.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVIVjHH31Fi
"Go…" Ares choked. "He’s…a Bloodfiend Elder…"
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cg29Am9Uu
"Not without you!" Lu Feng roared.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOc93itV0a
The battle turned desperate. Even with Ayla’s moonlight weakening the elder’s power, the trio barely held ground. When all seemed lost, Ayla unleashed a blinding lunar burst—the elder staggered, defenses crumbling.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLVqz2MDVl
Lu Feng’s final thrust pierced the elder’s heart. "We…won’t…be…last…" the elder gurgled before collapsing.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQ05gSMGph
Panting, Lu Feng retrieved the elder’s spatial ring. "We live to fight another—"
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1Zus4hyfy
A dagger hissed through the air. Ayla tackled Lu Feng as a black-clad figure materialized. "The Bloodfiend Sect never forgets!" The assassin crushed a smoke pellet, vanishing into shadows.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMnNO5j0UZ7
"Damn it!" Lu Feng slammed his fist into dirt.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfk4agsUOPY
Ares coughed weakly, pointing northwest. "Misty Forest…unicorn tribe…next target…three days…"
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiUUp4Y7Cj
The pieces clicked. Saving the unicorns could turn the tide—and forge a powerful alliance.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0EngFwZWlB
"Rest," Lu Feng ordered. "We move at dawn."
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQNbqpP2hx
As camp settled, a frost-tinged voice cut through the night: "Their schemes are filthier than you imagine."
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcSLnz7TjlA
A lean figure emerged—bow across back, eyes glacial. "Name’s Ares. Former Bloodfiend hunter. They took…everything." His voice cracked recounting his family’s sacrifice.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFafezZenN
When he revealed the unicorn tribe’s peril, Ayla paled. The mystical creatures were her people’s ancient allies.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4aybgAVCPj
"Prove your worth," Lu Feng demanded.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKAVjStTFh
Ares tossed a black token reeking of blood magic—genuine Bloodfiend insignia. "They harvest unicorn spirits for blood puppets. Stop them, or the forest dies."
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOl3vMdVxrL
Lu Feng’s grin turned feral. A turncoat with insider knowledge? This changed everything.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBz6wlLQmcM
"Welcome to Dusk Citadel," Lu Feng clasped Ares’ arm. "Let’s give the Bloodfiends a *hell* of a surprise."
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vdNyqEBbn
The Shadowfang Cat purred agreement, tail flicking like a war banner. Somewhere in the Third Realm, destiny shifted its gaze—and smiled.
