Emperor Shen's charming wife

Shen Yu and Ning Yao knew that time was running out. With their advantage of knowing the terrain like the back of their hands, they quickly and cleverly set up a series of well-designed traps. Those traps were either hidden in the dense grass or disguised between the rugged mountain roads, making it difficult for the ancient enemy to defend themselves when advancing. This series of traps successfully blocked the enemy's pace, buying them extremely precious time, allowing them to continue to prepare for the ceremony in an orderly manner. On the other side, the loyal knights led a small number of elite soldiers and firmly held the defense line. Although their number was small, each of them had a tenacious will and a firm and resolute look. Under the command of the knights, they relied on superb tactics, cooperated with each other, and had a tacit understanding. When the enemy came like a tide, they were not afraid at all, and bravely repelled the enemy's fierce attack again and again. They either took advantage of the terrain to give the enemy a fatal blow from a high place; or set up an ambush in a narrow passage to put the enemy in trouble. Each attack was precise and powerful, showing amazing fighting power, as if their bodies contained endless strength and courage. Ning Yao relied on her intelligence and mastery of ancient biological knowledge to quickly and methodically arrange the talismans and instruments needed for the ceremony. Her hands danced flexibly in the air, like a dancing fairy, and bright lights poured out from her fingertips, continuously injecting into the talismans and instruments. Shen Yu was fully focused on coordinating internal and external affairs to ensure that the ceremony could be foolproof and carried out smoothly. His eyes were as sharp as a hawk, constantly scanning the surroundings, always maintaining a high level of vigilance. In this tense and suffocating atmosphere, solemn and silent, the ceremony began solemnly. As the artifacts were activated one by one, a clear and powerful energy gradually gathered in the valley. This energy was like warm sunshine, illuminating the entire valley without reservation, forming a very sharp contrast with the approaching, gloomy and terrifying dark power. The ancient creatures cast their own mysterious spells, injecting their powerful power into the ceremony without reservation. Their figures flickered in the light, as if they were a group of sacred messengers guarding the world. As the ceremony progressed, the power of the ancient enemies became stronger and stronger. Their figures appeared and disappeared in the darkness, like erratic ghosts. But with Shen Yu and Ning Yao's full efforts, the ceremony continued steadily. The power of the ancient creatures continued to be injected into the ceremony like a rushing river, and a thrilling and fierce contest with the power of the ancient enemies began. At the critical moment when the ceremony was about to be completed, the ancient enemy broke through the last line of defense and appeared in person, trying to destroy the ceremony. His gloomy figure was erratic in the darkness, just like a ghost. "Huh, do you think you can stop me?" The ancient enemy laughed coldly. Shen Yu stepped forward without hesitation and started a desperate duel with the enemy. His figure shone in the light, as fast as lightning. He held the artifact tightly and started a thrilling life-and-death duel with the ancient enemy. "You are no match for me!" The ancient enemy roared furiously. "No, I will never let you succeed!" Shen Yu opened his eyes wide, glaring at the enemy, his eyes spurting out anger. While Shen Yu and the ancient enemy were fighting fiercely, Ning Yao, under the full protection of the knight, calmly completed the last critical step. Her hands danced rapidly, and bright lights flowed from her fingertips, continuously injected into the ceremony. "Finally done!" Ning Yao breathed a sigh of relief. With a thunderous roar, the ancient enemy was successfully sealed. His figure gradually faded in the light and finally disappeared in the endless darkness. "We succeeded!" Ning Yao shouted excitedly. However, at this moment, Shen Yu was seriously injured in the duel and fell down in the light of victory. His body trembled slightly in the light, as if it was about to dissipate. "Shen Yu!" Ning Yao screamed in horror. "No, I can't let you fall!" Ning Yao cried out with all her might, and threw herself at Shen Yu desperately. In Ning Yao's arms, Shen Yu slowly opened his eyes. His eyes were full of tenderness and love. "I'm fine, don't worry." Shen Yu said weakly. "No, you can't fall, you must live!" Ning Yao burst into tears and cried. Shen Yu smiled slightly and gently stroked Ning Yao's face. His eyes were full of reluctance and attachment. "I love you, Ning Yao." Shen Yu said affectionately. "I love you too, Shen Yu." Ning Yao cried. In Ning Yao's arms, Shen Yu slowly closed his eyes. His body gradually became cold, his breath gradually disappeared, and finally stopped breathing. Ning Yao cried heartbreakingly and threw herself at Shen Yu. Her tears fell like a torrential rain, dripping on Shen Yu's body. Her hands tightly hugged Shen Yu's body, as if she was afraid that he would disappear in an instant. In Ning Yao's arms, Shen Yu's body became colder and colder. His life force completely dissipated, and he stopped breathing forever.
