"Strange, I clearly saw a figure flash by just now, how come it disappeared?" said a rough voice.

"Are you dazzled? How come there are people here?" said another voice.

"Impossible, I definitely didn't see it wrong." The rough voice said, "Let's go in and take a look."

"Well, let's go in and take a look," said another voice.

Mo Han held his breath, he knew he had to find a way to get out, otherwise if he was discovered, the consequences would be disastrous. He quietly poked his head out from behind the sundries and found two guards standing at the door, preparing to enter the warehouse.

"What should I do?" Mo Han was extremely anxious. He knew he couldn't wait any longer and had to take the initiative. He took a deep breath, rushed out from behind the debris, and pounced on the two guards at the door.

"Who is it?" The two guards were shocked. They didn't expect that there was actually someone in the warehouse.

Mo Han didn't say anything, he waved his fist and attacked the two guards. The two guards were caught off guard and were caught off guard by Mo Han.

"Ouch!" A guard screamed and was knocked to the ground by Mo Han's punch.

Seeing this, another guard quickly drew his saber from his waist and slashed at Mo Han. Mo Han dodged sideways and kicked the guard's wrist, knocking his saber away.

"Come quickly, there is an assassin!" the guard shouted.

Mo Han knew that he couldn't continue to argue, so he quickly picked up the badge on the ground and ran out of the warehouse.

"Don't run!" Two guards got up from the ground and chased after Mo Han.

Mo Han ran all the way. He knew that he had to meet up with Luo Chen and Qing Shuang as soon as possible, otherwise he would be in trouble if he was surrounded by the palace guards.

"Mo Han, this way!" Luo Chen's voice suddenly came from the front.

Mo Han was delighted and ran towards the direction of the sound. Luo Chen and Qing Shuang were standing behind a big tree, waving at him.

"Hurry up!" Mo Han ran to the two of them and said hurriedly.

The three of them did not stop at all and quickly ran towards the outskirts of the palace. They used the cover of night to cleverly avoid the patrolling guards and finally left the palace safely.

After returning to the inn, the three finally breathed a sigh of relief. They took out the stolen guard uniforms and badges and carefully examined them.

"Although these clothes are a bit damaged, they should still be wearable after some repairs." Luo Chen said, he picked up a piece of clothing and examined it carefully.

"There's nothing wrong with the badge, you can use it normally." Qingshuang said as she handed the badge to Mo Han.

"That's good." Mo Han nodded, "Let's get started now and repair the clothes."

The three of them divided the work, Luo Chen was responsible for repairing the clothes, Qing Shuang was responsible for cleaning the waist badges, and Mo Han was responsible for keeping watch. After a busy period, the three sets of guards' uniforms were finally renewed and looked almost new.

"Okay, now we can act." Mo Han said, and he handed the repaired clothes to Luo Chen and Qing Shuang, "Let's change into guard uniforms and sneak into the palace."

The three of them changed into guard uniforms, put on their badges, and came to the gate of the palace again. They took a deep breath, pretended nothing had happened, and walked towards the palace.

"Stop, which team are you from?" a guard stopped them and asked.

"We are from the patrol team." Mo Han answered calmly and handed the badge to the guard.

The guard took the badge, checked it carefully, nodded, and said, "Go in."

The three of them successfully passed the outer inspection and entered the palace. According to the plan they had made in advance, they walked towards the hidden rockery they had discovered earlier.

"Strange, why is the atmosphere in the palace so tense today?" Luo Chen said in a low voice. He found that the number of patrolling guards in the palace was several times more than usual, and they all looked hurried, as if they were searching for something.

"I don't know. Let's be careful." Qingshuang said. She also felt the strange atmosphere in the palace.

Mo Han didn't say anything. Relying on his memory of the imperial palace, he took Luo Chen and Qing Shuang to avoid the patrolling guards and came to the hidden rockery.

"What's going on? Why are there so many guards here?" Mo Han looked at the scene in front of him and couldn't help but frown. There were more than a dozen guards standing at the entrance of the rockery, surrounding the entrance tightly.

"It seems that it is impossible for us to enter the rockery like last time." Luo Chen said. He looked at the scene in front of him and felt helpless.

"What should we do? We can't get in now, should we give up?" Qingshuang asked, somewhat unwillingly.

"Of course we can't give up." Mo Han said, "Let's think of another way. There must be a way to get in."

The three stood in the distance, looking at the heavily guarded entrance to the rockery, at a loss as to what to do. Just then, there was a sudden commotion in the distance, as if the guards had discovered some suspicious person.

"What happened over there?" Luo Chen asked. He looked in the direction of the commotion and felt a little confused.

"I don't know, let's go over and take a look." Mo Han said. He felt that this might be an opportunity.

The three of them walked towards the direction of the commotion and saw a group of guards surrounding a man in black. The two sides were in a standoff.

"Who are you? How dare you trespass into the palace!" a captain of the guards shouted.

"Hmph, you lackeys will get your comeuppance sooner or later!" The man in black sneered. His voice was hoarse and sounded a little harsh.

"Looking for death!" The captain of the guard roared, he drew the sword at his waist and slashed at the man in black.

The man in black was agile. He cleverly dodged the captain of the guards' attack and then slapped the captain of the guards on the chest.

"Puff!" The captain of the guards spat out a mouthful of blood and flew backwards.

"Captain!" Seeing this, the other guards rushed forward and surrounded the man in black.

"You two think you can stop me?" the man in black said disdainfully. He waved his palms and fought with the guards.

The man in black was extremely skilled in martial arts. The guards were no match for him and were quickly knocked to the ground by him.

"Haha, what a bunch of trash!" the man in black laughed and turned around to leave.

"Where are you going!" At this moment, an angry roar was heard, and a general in armor came over with a group of guards.

"It's the commander of the Imperial Guards!" Luo Chen recognized the man. He knew that the commander of the Imperial Guards was one of the most skilled martial artists in the palace and was extremely powerful.

"Hmph, you've come just in time!" The man in black snorted coldly. He walked towards the commander of the imperial guards and the two men fought together.

The commander of the imperial guards was indeed very skilled in martial arts. He wielded the spear with great force, and each move was powerful. Although the man in black was very skilled in martial arts, he gradually fell into a disadvantage under the fierce attack of the commander of the imperial guards. "Good opportunity!" Mo Han was delighted when he saw this scene. He knew that their chance had come.

"Let's go!" Mo Han said in a low voice. He took Luo Chen and Qing Shuang with him and took advantage of the chaos to quietly sneak towards the entrance of the rockery.

Since most of the guards were attracted to the commotion, the number of guards at the entrance to the rockery was significantly reduced. Mo Han and his two companions took the opportunity to sneak to the entrance of the rockery. They hid behind a large rock and observed the situation at the entrance.

"There are only two guards left, we can take care of them." Mo Han said, looking at the two guards at the entrance, a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"Okay, let's go together." Luo Chen said, he drew out his dagger and prepared to attack.

"Wait." Qing Shuang suddenly said, pointing to a stone at the entrance of the rockery, "Look there, is there anything?"

Luo Chen and Mo Han looked in the direction of Qingshuang's finger, and saw some strange symbols engraved on a stone at the entrance of the rockery.

"What is this?" Luo Chen asked with a frown. He didn't recognize these symbols.

"It seems to be some kind of mechanism." Mo Han said. He carefully observed the symbols and seemed to remember something. "I seem to have seen a similar mechanism when I was in the palace before."

"Can you open it?" Qingshuang asked. She felt that this might be a breakthrough into the rockery.

"Let me try." Mo Han said. He walked to the stone and studied the symbols carefully.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang stood aside, looking at Mo Han nervously. They knew that whether they could enter the rockery depended on Mo Han.

As time passed, beads of sweat appeared on Mo Han's forehead. He kept trying various combinations, but still couldn't open the mechanism.

"No, I can't open it." Mo Han shook his head, feeling frustrated.

"Are we really going to give up?" Qingshuang asked, somewhat unwillingly.

"No, we still have a chance." Luo Chen suddenly said, pointing at the commander of the Imperial Guards and the man in black who were fighting fiercely in the distance, "We can use them to create chaos, and then take the opportunity to enter the rockery."

"How to use it?" Mo Han asked. He didn't understand what Luo Chen meant.

"We can..." Luo Chen told Mo Han and Qing Shuang about his plan.

"Will this work?" Qingshuang was a little skeptical. She felt that Luo Chen's plan was a bit risky.

"Let's give it a try. We don't have any better idea now." Mo Han said. He felt that although Luo Chen's plan was risky, it was worth a try.

After the three of them had made their decision, they began to act. Luo Chen was responsible for creating chaos, Mo Han was responsible for opening the mechanism, and Qing Shuang was responsible for the response.

Luo Chen took a deep breath, quietly approached the commander of the imperial guards and the man in black who were fighting fiercely, and then threw a stone at the two of them.

"Who?" The commander of the imperial guards and the man in black stopped at the same time and looked around vigilantly.

Luo Chen didn't say anything. He threw another stone. This time, he threw it at the commander of the imperial guards.

"Looking for death!" The commander of the imperial guards was furious. He thought that the man in black was attacking him, so he waved his spear and attacked the man in black.

Seeing this, the man in black showed no sign of weakness. He waved his palms and fought with the commander of the imperial guards again.

"Good opportunity!" Mo Han was delighted when he saw this scene. He hurried to the entrance of the rockery and continued to study the symbols.

Qingshuang stood aside, nervously observing the movements around her. She knew that they had to enter the rockery as soon as possible, otherwise they would be in trouble if they were discovered.

As time passed, more beads of sweat appeared on Mo Han's forehead. He kept trying various combinations, and finally, he found the right one.

"Click!" A slight sound was heard, and the mechanism at the entrance of the rockery was opened.

"It's open!" Mo Han said excitedly, and he quickly pushed open the entrance to the rockery.

"Go in quickly!" Qingshuang urged, she knew they didn't have much time.

The three of them quickly entered the rockery and closed the entrance. They walked along the passage towards the inside of the rockery.

"We finally got in." Luo Chen said, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Well, but we still have to be careful." Qingshuang said. She knew that there might be greater dangers hidden inside the rockery.

"Let's go and see what the ultimate secret of the Blood Vampire Sect is." Mo Han said, with excitement flashing in his eyes.

The three continued to move forward, not knowing that a bigger conspiracy was waiting for them in the depths of the rockery.

The noise of commotion coming from afar was growing louder and louder, and it seemed that more people were joining the fight.

The three of them went deeper into the passage. The rockery had winding paths and twists and turns, like a maze. The air was filled with a faint smell of blood, mixed with some inexplicable smell of decay, which made people nauseous.

"Why does this damn place feel even more eerie than the last time I came here?" Luo Chen couldn't help but rubbing his arms. He always felt that there was something in the dark staring at them, making him feel uncomfortable.

"Be careful, this place may not be that simple." Qing Shuang's voice was still cold, but there was a hint of solemnity in her tone. She took out three talismans from her bosom and handed them to Luo Chen and Mo Han. "This is an invisibility talisman. Sticking it on your body can hide your figure and breath. It should be able to deceive those guards."

“You are really thoughtful.” Luo Chen took the talisman, chuckled, and carefully placed it against his chest.

Mo Han also followed his example and pasted the talisman. The three of them looked at each other and continued to move forward.

At the end of the passage was a huge stone door with intricate patterns carved on it. Some dark red bloodstains could be vaguely seen, like some kind of ancient seal. Mo Han walked forward and carefully observed the patterns on the stone door, his brows furrowed.

"Can it be opened?" Luo Chen asked.

"The seal on this door is more complicated than the last one. I need time." Mo Han said, taking out a compass from his arms and began to deduce.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang did not dare to disturb him, and could only wait quietly. As time passed, beads of sweat oozed out of Mo Han's forehead, and his face became paler and paler.

"Or... let's go back and don't force it." Luo Chen looked at Mo Han and felt a little reluctant. He was not worried about anything else, but was mainly afraid that Mo Han would accidentally kill him, which would be a big loss for him.

"Almost...wait a little longer..." Mo Han gritted his teeth, stared at the compass, and moved his fingers quickly.

Suddenly, a dazzling light flashed on the compass, followed by a dull roar from the stone door, and a gap slowly opened.

"It's open!" Mo Han showed a hint of joy on his face, but then he felt weak again. He staggered and almost fell. (End of this chapter)
