After the interrogation at the Dali Temple, Yang Xiu's heart could not calm down for a long time. He knew that he had to get out of this predicament as soon as possible, not only for his own innocence, but also to avoid embarrassing Chen Jue.

After careful consideration, Yang Xiu decided to find Chen Jue again and provide him with more clues about the Yang family's corruption and Yang Feng's accomplices.

It was a sunny day, but Yang Xiu was still in a heavy mood.

He came to the Dali Temple and asked to see Chen Jue. When Chen Jue saw Yang Xiu, he felt mixed emotions. The two sat opposite each other in a quiet room in the Dali Temple.

Yang Xiu looked at Chen Jue and said firmly, "Master Chen, I thought about it carefully after I went back, and there are some things that may be helpful to the case. The Yang family colluded closely with some officials in the process of corruption. I accidentally heard Yang Feng and an official named Liu discussing how to divide the corruption proceeds in a secret room. It seems that they mentioned tampering with a certain court project to obtain huge profits. In addition, the Yang family has a secret warehouse in the city, which is said to store their property obtained through improper means and some important account records."

Chen Jue listened to Yang Xiu's words, feeling both relieved and a little worried. He was relieved that Yang Xiu was able to actively cooperate and provide more clues, which was undoubtedly a major breakthrough in solving the case; he was worried that there might be more complex forces and dangers hidden behind these clues. He didn't know what impact this would have on Yang Xiu, and he was also worried about whether he would be able to deal with the various situations that might arise next.

"Yang Xiu, the information you provided is very crucial. But you should know that this may put you in a more dangerous situation. Aren't you afraid?"

Chen Jue asked, his eyes revealing his concern for Yang Xiu.

Yang Xiu smiled and said, "Master Chen, I am not afraid. I just hope to find out the truth as soon as possible, clear my name, and rid the court and the people of harm. I believe you will handle this matter fairly."

"Okay, Yang Xiu, don't worry, I will do my best. You should also be more careful."

With the clues provided by Yang Xiu, Chen Jue immediately took action. He led his men to secretly investigate and arrest Yang Feng's accomplices. Before each action, Chen Jue would carefully plan and deploy. In his heart, he had both the desire for success and the vigilance against unknown dangers.

During the investigation, he encountered various obstacles and difficulties. Some forces tried to interfere with their investigation, but Chen Jue never gave up. He relied on his wisdom and courage to overcome difficulties time and time again.

After some hard work, they successfully arrested a group of people related to the Yang family's corruption case, and the case made a major breakthrough.

After detailed investigation, it was gradually confirmed that Yang Xiu had no direct connection with the Yang family's corruption case. In the end, Yang Xiu was acquitted.

After experiencing a series of twists and turns in the interrogation and investigation at the Dali Temple, Chen Jue's heart was always tense.

He was well aware of the complex forces behind the Yang family's corruption case, and he needed to be cautious in every step.

While Yang Xiu tried hard to prove his innocence in this storm, he and Chen Jue also experienced the test of fate.

One evening, the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the alleys of the capital like a golden veil, dyeing the ancient walls and stone roads with a warm and soft color. However, this tranquility was broken by the upcoming bloody battle.

Yang Xiu and Chen Jue sat opposite each other in front of a wonton stall in the alley, eating wontons and chatting about the recent situation.

The breeze blew gently, bringing a sense of comfort, but they all felt a little uneasy in their hearts, as if they had a premonition that something was about to happen.

Just as they were talking, suddenly, a light but hurried sound of footsteps broke the silence.

Immediately afterwards, a group of killers emerged from all directions like ghosts and surrounded them in an instant.

These killers were all dressed in black, with stern faces, holding sharp blades, and their eyes revealed cold murderous intent.

Yang Xiu and Chen Jue immediately became alert. They quickly stood up, back to back, and looked vigilantly at the killers around them.

"It seems that the Lin family can't sit still anymore."

Chen Jue snorted coldly, his eyes revealing anger and determination. He tightly grasped the sword at his waist and thought quickly about how to deal with it.

Recalling his dealings with various forces in the Dali Temple, he knew that the mastermind behind these killers was definitely trying to stop him from continuing to pursue the truth.

"Master Chen, let's fight them today!"

As Yang Xiu spoke, he clenched his fists. Although his martial arts skills were not as good as Chen Jue's, there was no trace of retreat in his eyes at this moment.

After experiencing the interrogation storm in the Dali Temple, Yang Xiu became more determined to fight the evil forces to the end.

Without saying a word, the assassins rushed forward brandishing their sharp blades. The leading assassin was agile and pounced on Chen Jue like a cheetah, stabbing the knife in his hand straight into his chest.

Chen Jue dodged to the side and drew his sword, the blade flashing coldly in the afterglow of the setting sun. He swung his sword and the blade collided with the killer's knife, making a crisp sound. But the killer refused to give in, and with a turn of his wrist, he swung his knife horizontally towards Chen Jue's waist.

Chen Jue jumped back to avoid the attack, then took a quick step forward and stabbed the killer's throat with his sword like lightning.

The killer quickly used his knife to block, but Chen Jue suddenly changed the direction of the sword and slashed downwards, scratching the killer's arm.

Another killer took the opportunity to attack from the side. Chen Jue felt the movement behind him, he turned around and blocked the attack from the killer with his sword.

At the same time, he kicked the injured killer and knocked him to the ground.

At this time, two more killers rushed up together. They cooperated well, one attacked the upper side and the other attacked the lower side.

Chen Jue jumped up, flipped in the air, and slashed his sword from top to bottom, forcing back the two assassins.

On the other side, several assassins attacked Yang Xiu at the same time. Yang Xiu nimbly dodged their attacks, using the tables and chairs in the alley as cover and moving back and forth.

A killer attacked from behind. Yang Xiu was quick to sense it. He leaped forward and dodged the fatal blow by lying on the ground. Then he quickly stood up and threw a bench at the killer. The killer chopped the bench with a knife and continued to move closer to Yang Xiu.

Yang Xiu dodged left and right, looking for a chance to fight back. He saw a stone on the ground, so he kicked it, and the stone flew towards one of the assassins, hitting him in the face and temporarily making him lose his fighting ability.

In the fight with the assassins, Chen Jue's swordsmanship was sharp and smooth, like flowing water. Each of his moves was full of power and skill, and the sword blade drew arcs in the air, forcing the assassins to retreat again and again.

While he was fighting, he shouted loudly: "Yang Xiu, be careful to the left!"

This voice not only contained concern for his companions, but also the calmness and decisiveness honed in the Dali Temple.

He knew very well that at this moment they must support each other in order to overcome the crisis before them.

When Yang Xiu heard Chen Jue's reminder, he immediately turned around and blocked the attack of an assassin.

He pushed the killers away with force, then picked up a wooden stick on the ground and started fighting with the killers.

At this tense moment, he thought of the days he had spent in the Dali Temple waiting for his innocence, and his courage grew stronger.

In the fierce battle, the alley was filled with a tense atmosphere. In the afterglow of the setting sun, the flashes of swords and the sounds of killing continued.

Chen Jue and Yang Xiu cooperated with each other and gradually gained the upper hand. Chen Jue seized an opportunity and used a sharp sword technique to cut the arm of a killer. The killer screamed and the knife in his hand fell.

Yang Xiu took the opportunity to pick up the knife on the ground and fought side by side with Chen Jue. The two of them stood back to back, forming a solid line of defense.

Although the killers were numerous, their tenacious resistance gradually revealed their flaws.

Chen Jue shouted, "Get out!"

He rushed towards the assassins' encirclement first, swinging his sword like a ball of light and shadow. Yang Xiu followed closely behind, using his knife to block the assassins' attacks. After a hard fight, they finally repelled all the assassins.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the killers fled in all directions.

"We can't let them get away like this, we have to chase them!"

Chen Jue said this and immediately chased in the direction the assassins fled. Yang Xiu followed without hesitation.
