As the dusk deepens, the afterglow on the horizon is like diluted blood, dyeing half of the sky red. Lin Xuan, Lu Chenxi and the woman in white were walking on the winding mountain road together, their shadows stretched long in the afterglow of the setting sun.

"Where are we going?" Lu Chenxi couldn't help but break the silence. She looked at the looming mountain peaks in front of her, filled with curiosity and uneasiness.

The woman in white turned around lightly, her face looking even more mysterious and beautiful in the afterglow, "Go to a place you have never been to, a place where you can temporarily escape the pursuit of the Shadow Gate."

Lin Xuan frowned. He didn't completely believe this woman in white who suddenly appeared, but the current situation did not allow him to have too many choices. "You'd better not play any tricks, otherwise I will make you regret it."

The woman in white smiled softly, as if she did not take Lin Xuan's threat to heart, "Don't worry, since I have chosen to cooperate with you, I will naturally not do anything detrimental to you."

The three of them continued to move forward. The mountain road was rugged and difficult, but their speed did not slow down at all. The woman in white seemed to be very familiar with the terrain here. She led Lin Xuan and Lu Chenxi through the mountains and forests with ease.

As time went by, the sky became darker and darker, and the surrounding scenery became more and more weird. Lin Xuan and Lu Chenxi followed closely behind the woman in white, vigilantly observing the movements around them.

Suddenly, a rush of footsteps came from behind, and then several black shadows jumped out from the surrounding woods, surrounding the three of them.

"Hahaha! You have finally fallen into our trap!" An arrogant voice came, and a man in black walked out of the woods with a ferocious smile on his face.

Lin Xuan's eyes flashed, and he recognized that the man in black was an expert from the Shadow Sect, "So it's you who are doing this! It seems that you have already set up an ambush and are waiting for us to fall into our trap!"

The man in black smiled proudly and said: "That's right! We knew a long time ago that you would follow this traitor here, so we specially set up an ambush to wait for you. Today you can't fly, so just accept death!"

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and the black shadows behind him immediately launched a fierce attack on the three of them.

Lin Xuan and Lu Chenxi saw this and immediately drew their swords to fight. The woman in white also moved and turned into a white light to join the battle group.

Sword light flashed and black shadows flew, and the three of them fought hard in the encirclement. However, there were too many people in the Shadow Sect. They fought and retreated, and were gradually forced to the edge of the cliff.

"No! We are surrounded!" Lu Chenxi exclaimed, with a trace of panic on her face.

Lin Xuan said in a deep voice: "Don't be afraid! As long as I'm here, nothing will happen to you!"

As he spoke, he swung his sword to repel a dark figure attacking Lu Chenxi. However, at this moment, a sharp sword energy suddenly struck from behind, hitting his back.

Lin Xuan was shocked. He had no time to dodge and could only resist the blow. There was only a loud "bang" sound, and Lin Xuan was hit by the sword energy. His body flew out like a kite with a broken string, and fell to the ground with a "plop".

"Lin Xuan!" Lu Chenxi exclaimed, and she rushed over to help Lin Xuan up, "Are you okay?"

Lin Xuan shook his head and struggled to stand up, "I'm fine. Just a slight injury."

He looked up and saw the woman in white fighting fiercely with the people from the Shadow Gate alone. Her sword skills are sharp and strange, and every swing of her sword can take away an enemy's life.

However, there were too many people in the Shadow Sect. She fought and retreated, and was gradually forced to the edge of the cliff.

"Hurry up! I'll hold them back!" The woman in white suddenly shouted. She swung her sword and launched an even more violent attack on the people at the Shadow Gate.

Lin Xuan and Lu Chenxi looked at each other, their hearts filled with emotion and respect. They knew that the woman in white was using her own life to give them a chance to escape.

"Let's go!" Lin Xuan said in a deep voice, "We can't live up to her sacrifice!"

With that said, he took Lu Chenxi's hand and jumped to the other side of the cliff. The two of them crossed the sky like two shooting stars and disappeared into the sunset.

The woman in white breathed a sigh of relief when she saw this. She knew that she had completed her mission, and the next step was to fight to the death.

She swung her sword and launched a final charge towards the people from the Shadow Gate, "Today I will let you see my true strength!"

The sword light was like a rainbow and the momentum was like a rainbow. The woman in white turned into a white light in the sunset and rushed towards the people at the Shadow Gate. Just hearing the sound of "bang bang bang", the people of the Shadow Gate fell under her sword one by one.

However, at this moment, a black shadow suddenly struck from behind, and a sword pierced the body of the woman in white.

There was a soft sound of "Puff", and a mouthful of blood spurted out from the mouth of the woman in white, and her body fell softly to the ground.

"Hahaha! You died in our hands after all!" The man in black laughed triumphantly, "The people from the Shadow Gate will never leave anyone alive!"

He walked up to the woman in white and stepped on her head. However, at this moment, a sharp sword energy suddenly struck from behind, hitting his back.

The man in black was shocked. He had no time to dodge and could only resist the blow. There was only a loud "bang" sound, and he was hit by the sword energy. His body flew out like a kite with a broken string, and he fell to the ground with a "plop".

He struggled to raise his head and saw Lin Xuan and Lu Chenxi standing not far away, looking at him coldly, "You, you are not dead!"

Lin Xuan said coldly: "We are lucky enough not to die in your hands. Now, it is your turn to die!"

As he spoke, he swung his sword and rushed towards the man in black. Lu Chenxi also followed closely behind, and together with Lin Xuan besieged the man in black.

Although the man in black was seriously injured, his strength was still there. He swung his sword to fight and started a life and death battle with Lin Xuan and Lu Chenxi.

Sword light flashed and black shadows flew, and the three of them started a thrilling battle on the edge of the cliff. However, at this moment, a sudden change occurred!

I saw a ray of white light falling from the sky and landing on the man in black. Immediately afterwards, there was a loud noise, and the body of the man in black was blown to pieces, with blood and flesh flying everywhere.

Lin Xuan and Lu Chenxi were shocked when they saw this. They looked up and saw an old man in white robes floating in the sky. His face was kind and his eyes were deep, as if he were an expert from this world.

"Thank you, senior, for saving your life!" Lin Xuan and Lu Chenxi quickly bowed and saluted.

The old man in white robe smiled slightly, "You don't need to thank me. I just saved you casually. The one who really saved you was the woman in white."

When Lin Xuan and Lu Chenxi heard this, their hearts moved. They turned around and saw the woman in white lying quietly on the ground. Her face was peaceful and her eyes were empty, as if she had lost the breath of life.

"What happened to her?" Lu Chenxi asked in a trembling voice, "Is she dead?"
