Resisting the Wind and Splendor

Chapter 323 Even if I die, I'll die before her.

The cave's structure consists mostly of passageways at the front, with a few secret rooms occasionally used for storage.

The real battlefield was deep inside, in caves they had dug themselves. All the raw materials for making the thunderbolts were in the innermost cave.

Chu Yueli gazed into deep thought for a moment.

Previously, they had seen that the person called "Sect Leader" seemed to have a higher status than the Hall Master.

If even the sect leader dares to linger in this place, then there must be a secret escape route here.

But this secret passage is probably unknown to most people.

Did Lu Beimo find the secret passage and leave through it? Or did he not stay in the cave afterward?

"Miss, let me search carefully again. The prince must have left a mark for everyone." Jing Lei planned to go in again.

But the cave is pitch black, and even if you leave a mark, it might not be found.

Finding tiny, almost invisible marks in complete darkness is no easy task.

"Wait a minute," Chu Yueli called out to him.

Not far inside, there were a few of their own brothers guarding the area, and the outside was also full of their people. The cave entrance and the area around the cave had been controlled by them. Unless there was a secret passage to leave, the people inside would have no chance of escaping.

The fear now is that the people inside, knowing they can't survive, might choose to ignite all the gunpowder used to make the thunderbolts, perishing together with everyone else.

We must subdue all those people, and we must do so quietly.

"The rest of you stay here. Jing Lei, I'll go in with you and take a look."

“No.” Jing Lei immediately refused. “Miss, you stay here, I’ll be right back.”

“I might know where he will leave a mark.” Chu Yueli pressed down on Lei Xiao, who was trying to stop her, and lowered her voice: “Don’t make any rash moves. If anyone else comes out, take them out one by one, just like before.”

Lei Xiao was unwilling to let her take the risk. How could he, a man of seven feet tall, let a girl rush ahead of him?

But she did come here with the prince...

"I'll go with you," Lei Xiao said, still worried.

She was the girl the prince had chosen, and even if it meant death, he had to die before her.

The same meaning applies to "thunderclap".

So it won't be easy to get these two guys to stay.

"Alright then, let's all go in together."

She turned to look at Wan Yinghao, who was following behind them and directing his brothers: "If there is any unusual activity inside later, you must lead all the brothers to evacuate immediately, without delay."

"Miss Li..."

"Those who conspire with me must not give me any reason to worry about the future." Chu Yueli's face darkened.

Wan Yinghao knew that if he didn't listen, from now on, Miss Li would no longer consider him a partner who would live and die with her.

He was completely convinced of Chu Yueli's sincerity. Although the two did not belong to the same military unit, they worked together very well. He also hoped that they could remain friends forever.

Wan Yinghao hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded cautiously: "I'll listen to you."

Chu Yueli was finally satisfied and led the way.

Thunderclap and Roar followed behind her.

The cave where the sect leader killed Cui'er is now deserted, and the sect leader is gone too; it's unknown whether he left or is in another cave.

Chu Yueli led the two of them there and quickly found the cave where the thunderbolts were actually made.

It was late at night, a time when everyone should be resting, but strangely, the cave, which had been pitch black just moments before, was now brightly lit.
