The Appearance of the Mysterious Organization and Its Conspiracy

Li Yi and Lin Yue continued to move forward in the Misty Forest. The mysterious sound kept echoing in their ears, making their hair stand on end. Suddenly, a group of people dressed in black robes rushed out from all directions and surrounded them. These people all wore black masks on their faces, so their features could not be seen clearly.

Li Yi drew his sword and looked at them warily.

"Who are you? Why are you blocking our way?"

The leading man in black sneered.

"Who we are is not important. What's important is that you must hand over the Millennium Snow Ginseng."

Li Yi was shocked. He didn't expect these people to know that they had the Millennium Snow Ginseng. Lin Yue said,

"Don't even think about it. We got the Millennium Snow Ginseng through countless hardships. We will never give it to you bad people."

The man in black snorted coldly.

"Hmph, you choose the hard way. Then don't blame us for being ruthless."

After saying that, he waved his hand, and the men in black rushed towards Li Yi, Lin Yue, and the others. Li Yi and the guards immediately engaged in a fierce battle with them. These men in black were highly skilled in martial arts, and their attacking methods were strange, making it hard to defend against.

Lin Yue hid behind the guards, extremely anxious. She watched as Li Yi and the guards gradually fell into a disadvantaged position in the battle, and she was very worried. Suddenly, Lin Yue noticed that there was the same mark on the bodies of these men in black. It was a mysterious symbol that she had never seen before. Lin Yue had an idea. She thought that this symbol might be the key to uncovering the identities of these men in black.

Just then, a man in black took advantage of Li Yi's unpreparedness and attacked him from behind. Lin Yue screamed in horror.

"Your Highness, be careful!"

She rushed over without hesitation and blocked the attack of the man in black with her own body. Li Yi turned around and saw that Lin Yue was injured. His heart was filled with grief. He let out a roar and burst out with powerful strength, repelling all the men in black around him.

Li Yi held Lin Yue in his arms and said anxiously,

"Miss Lin, how are you? Hold on. I'll save you right away."

Lin Yue opened her eyes weakly and looked at Li Yi.

"Your Highness, I'm fine... Don't worry about me..."

Li Yi looked at Lin Yue's pale face and was filled with self - blame.

"It's all my fault. I didn't protect you well."

Just when Li Yi and Lin Yue were in a difficult situation, suddenly, a flash of light appeared, and a mysterious old man appeared in front of them. The old man held a walking stick in his hand and looked at the men in black with sharp eyes.

"You evil people, how dare you do evil here."

The men in black turned pale when they saw the old man. They seemed to be very afraid of the old man. The leading man in black snorted coldly.

"Hmph, old man, don't meddle in other people's business. Otherwise, you won't end up well either."

The old man sneered.

"Do you think I'm afraid of you? Today, I won't let you succeed."

After saying that, the old man waved his walking stick and engaged in a fierce battle with the men in black. The old man was highly skilled in martial arts. When his walking stick was wielded, it created a strong wind, and the men in black gradually couldn't resist.

With the help of the old man, Li Yi and Lin Yue finally got rid of the siege of the men in black. The old man looked at Li Yi and Lin Yue and said,

"Go quickly. These people won't give up easily."

Li Yi said gratefully,

"Thank you, old man, for your help. May I know your name?"

The old man smiled slightly.

"Who I am is not important. Just remember that you must protect the Millennium Snow Ginseng well and never let it fall into the hands of bad people."

Li Yi and Lin Yue, along with the guards, left the Misty Forest. Their hearts were filled with doubts. What kind of organization were these men in black? Why did they want to snatch the Millennium Snow Ginseng? And what was the identity of this mysterious old man? Could they find the key to the ancient divine artifact and resolve this crisis?
