Chu Mengmeng looked at Lin Feng for a long time before she slowly spoke: "Are you really willing to help us? Even if it puts you in danger?"

Lin Feng smiled bitterly, with a hint of bitterness in his eyes: "I'm already in danger, aren't I? Ever since my sister embarked on this path, I can no longer stay out of it." He paused, and his tone became firm, "What's more, I believe in you, and I also believe in my own choice."

Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen were both moved. They could feel Lin Feng's sincerity and understand his inner struggle and pain at the moment.

"Okay, I believe you." Chu Mengmeng nodded solemnly, "We will do our best to stop your sister and ensure your safety."

"Thank you." Lin Feng looked at them gratefully, and then began to tell them everything he knew.

It turns out that the reason why Lin Yuxin became what she is now is because she practiced a forbidden technique, which can quickly improve strength, but it is also very easy to go astray and lose one's mind. The reason why she targeted Chu Mengmeng, in addition to jealousy, is more importantly that she wanted to take something from Chu Mengmeng to consolidate her own power.

"What does she want to take away?" Xiao Yichen frowned, feeling uneasy.

Lin Feng shook his head: "I don't know exactly what it is, I just know that it is very important to my sister's cultivation."

After learning all this, Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen felt even more depressed. They originally thought that this was just a simple family fight, but they didn't expect that there was such a complicated conspiracy behind it.

"What should we do now?" Chu Mengmeng looked at Xiao Yichen, her eyes full of worry.

Xiao Yichen pondered for a moment, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes: "Since Lin Yuxin wants to play, then we will play with her to the end! Lin Feng, you said before that you can help us contact some families, I wonder if it's too late now?"

Lin Feng nodded: "It's not too late. Although most of the families have been bribed by my sister, there are still some who remain neutral. As long as we can convince them, we still have a chance."

"Okay, then I'll leave it to you." A glimmer of hope ignited in Xiao Yichen's eyes.

In the next few days, Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen, led by Lin Feng, secretly visited several neutral families. They told these families about Lin Yuxin's conspiracy and promised to give them generous rewards after the success.

However, things did not go as smoothly as they imagined. Although these families were dissatisfied with Lin Yuxin's actions, they were unwilling to offend her easily. After all, the power behind Lin Yuxin was too huge.

Just when Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen felt desperate, Lin Feng suddenly brought a message: "I found a weakness of my sister."

"What weakness?" Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen asked in unison.

Lin Feng lowered his voice and told them a shocking piece of news...

 Burn the Boats (Continued)

Lin Feng lowered his voice and told them a shocking piece of news: "Although the forbidden technique my sister practices is powerful, it has a fatal weakness. That is, every full moon night, she will fall into a weak period and cannot use any spiritual power."

Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen looked at each other and saw hope in each other's eyes.

"Is this news reliable?" Xiao Yichen asked cautiously.

"It's absolutely true." Lin Feng said firmly, "I found this by accident in my sister's study. It can't be wrong."

"Okay, in that case, let's choose to act on the next full moon night!" There was a gleam in Chu Mengmeng's eyes, and her tone was full of determination.

In order to ensure the success of the plan, Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen began arduous training in the following period. Xiao Yichen taught Chu Mengmeng everything he had learned throughout his life to help her improve her spiritual power and combat experience. Chu Mengmeng, on the other hand, made rapid progress with her extraordinary talent and perseverance.

At the same time, Lin Feng was secretly contacting those families that remained neutral to gain more support for their actions.

Time passed day by day, and in the blink of an eye it was the full moon night.

As night falls, a full moon hangs high in the sky, casting a cool light.

Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen had already disguised themselves and were lurking outside Lin Yuxin's residence. Around them, there were dozens of elite masters from various families hiding, waiting for the best time to act.

"Are you ready?" Xiao Yichen asked in a low voice, his eyes full of concern.

"Yeah." Chu Mengmeng nodded gently, took a deep breath, and tried to calm her inner tension.

"Action!" With Xiao Yichen's order, the people lurking in the dark rushed out like arrows and quickly controlled the important roads in the residential area.

Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen, led by Lin Feng, went straight to Lin Yuxin's secret training room.

Along the way, they encountered almost no resistance, as if everything was under their control.

However, just as they were about to approach Lin Yuxin's practice chamber, an accident occurred.

With a "click", the floor under Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen's feet suddenly collapsed, and the two fell down instantly.

"Oh no, there's a trap!" Xiao Yichen's face changed drastically, and he hurriedly reached out to grab Chu Mengmeng, but it was too late.

The two men fell heavily into a dark and damp dungeon. There was a disgusting rotten smell all around.

"Mengmeng, are you okay?" Xiao Yichen struggled to get up and asked anxiously.

"I'm fine." Chu Mengmeng shook her head and looked around in the dim light. She felt uneasy, "It seems we've fallen into a trap."

At this moment, a cold laugh came from the dungeon entrance: "Haha, Miss Chu, how are you?"

Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen looked up and saw Lin Yuxin in a red dress with a sneer on her lips, walking slowly in from the entrance.

"Did you know we would come?" Xiao Yichen frowned, his eyes full of coldness.

Lin Yuxin smiled contemptuously: "Of course, from the moment you stepped into the door of my Lin family, your every move is under my control."

"Why are you doing this?" Chu Mengmeng asked in confusion.

"Why?" The smile on Lin Yuxin's face disappeared instantly, replaced by endless resentment and hatred, "Because you all deserve to die!"

Before she finished speaking, a dagger flashing with cold light suddenly appeared in Lin Yuxin's hand, and she stabbed towards Chu Mengmeng fiercely...

However, just as they were about to approach Lin Yuxin's secret training room, a strange energy wave suddenly came from the front, and dense runes appeared on the walls on both sides of the corridor, emitting a faint red light.

"Oh no! There's an ambush!" Xiao Yichen's face changed, and he grabbed Chu Mengmeng and stepped back.

"boom!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the stone door at the end of the corridor slammed shut, isolating them from Lin Feng and the others. Then, the entire corridor began to tremble violently, and the runes on the wall glowed brightly, forming a huge energy vortex that trapped Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen inside.

"Damn it! We've fallen into a trap!" Xiao Yichen cursed in a low voice, and the spiritual power in his hands surged, trying to break through the energy barrier in front of him.

"It's useless. This is the Lin family's ancestral dragon-trapping formation. With our strength, we can't break through it by force." Chu Mengmeng's face was solemn, and she calmly analyzed the situation in front of her.

"What should we do? Are we just going to sit here and wait for death?" Xiao Yichen asked anxiously, his eyes full of worry.

"Of course not, I want to see what she wants to do." A gleam of light flashed in Chu Mengmeng's eyes, and a sly smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

At this moment, the stone door at the end of the corridor opened again, and Lin Yuxin walked in wearing a red dress with a sneer on her face.

"Miss Chu, how are you?" Lin Yuxin said sarcastically, her eyes full of pride.

"Lin Yuxin, did you know we would come?" Xiao Yichen stared at Lin Yuxin coldly and asked in a deep voice.

"Of course, from the moment you stepped into the gate of my Lin family, your every move is under my control." Lin Yuxin smiled contemptuously, with a cold light flashing in her eyes.

"Why are you doing this? What kind of deep hatred is there between us?" Chu Mengmeng asked puzzledly. She really couldn't figure out what kind of hatred there was between her and Lin Yuxin that was worth her going to so much trouble to deal with her.

"Why?" The smile on Lin Yuxin's face disappeared instantly, replaced by endless resentment and hatred, "Because you all deserve to die!"

Before she finished speaking, Lin Yuxin formed seals with her hands, and a powerful spiritual energy wave burst out from her body. The entire dragon trapping formation trembled violently, and it seemed that it would collapse at any time...

 Chapter 173: Burning the Boats

"Want to kill us? You are not qualified!" Chu Mengmeng shouted, and spiritual power surged around her body. She instantly turned into a residual shadow and avoided Lin Yuxin's attack.

Xiao Yichen followed closely behind, waving the sword in his hand, and the sword energy was so strong that it tore cracks in the energy fluctuations of the Dragon Trapping Formation.

"Just you? You are overestimating your abilities!" Lin Yuxin sneered, her hands kept changing, the power of the Dragon Trapping Formation increased again, trapping Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen tightly.

At this moment, a black shadow flashed and appeared silently behind Lin Yuxin.

"Be careful!" Xiao Yichen had sharp eyes and immediately noticed something unusual, and warned loudly.

Lin Yuxin was startled and was about to turn around to respond, but she felt a chill on her back and a cold dagger was pressed against her throat.

"Don't move!" A deep voice sounded in her ears, "Otherwise, I can't guarantee what will happen."

Lin Yuxin suddenly didn't dare to move. She could feel the murderous intent of the person behind her. If she moved slightly, the other party would definitely kill her without hesitation.

"Who are you? Why are you helping them?" Lin Yuxin asked coldly, trying to remain calm.

"It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that your life is in my hands now." The man in black said in a cold tone without any emotion. "If you don't want to die, just listen to me."

Lin Yuxin gritted her teeth, a hint of resentment flashed in her eyes, but she finally chose to compromise.

"What do you want?"

"Let them go, and then give up your cultivation, and I can spare your life." The man in black put forward his conditions.

"Impossible!" Lin Yuxin refused without even thinking about it. For her, destroying her own cultivation was more painful than death. "I would rather die than agree to your request!"

"Then don't blame me for being rude!" The man in black said with a cold tone, and exerted a little force with the dagger in his hand, leaving a bloody mark on Lin Yuxin's neck.

"Stop!" Seeing this, Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen hurriedly spoke out to stop it.

"Ally, thank you for your help, but we cannot harm her life." Xiao Yichen bowed to the man in black and said in a deep voice.

The man in black was silent for a moment, as if weighing the pros and cons, but finally retracted the dagger.

"You're lucky!"

After saying that, the man in black flashed and disappeared from the spot, as if he had never appeared.

Lin Yuxin covered her bleeding neck, her eyes full of resentment. She stared at Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen, gritting her teeth and saying, "Just wait, I won't let you go!"

After saying that, Lin Yuxin turned and left, disappearing at the other end of the corridor.

"Let's go too." Xiao Yichen took Chu Mengmeng's hand and walked towards the depths of the corridor.

They knew that even though they had managed to escape this time, Lin Yuxin would never give up, and a bigger crisis was waiting for them...
