"We just want our things back. Hand over the bag of gold coins, and we won't make things difficult for you," the leader said, his voice laced with a threat.
Yun Muhan's heart skipped a beat. He realized that these people were likely the owners of the bag of gold coins, or at least related to the theft of the coins. He decided to test them.
"Gold coins? I don't know what you're talking about." Yun Muhan pretended to be confused.
The other party clearly didn't believe him and began trying to force their way into the room. Yun Muhan knew he could no longer show mercy.
With a flick of his flying sword, a burst of sword energy forced his opponent back. At the same time, he quickly closed the door and used the flying sword to firmly secure the bolt.
"Dugu Jianling, we need to get out of here quickly."
“I agree, these guys are clearly not good people,” Dugu Jianling replied.
Yun Muhan moved swiftly and methodically, knowing that time was of the essence and he needed to leave this dangerous place as soon as possible. His fingers deftly packed his luggage, every movement revealing the calmness and efficiency he had honed over the years.
Although the origin of that bag of gold coins was unknown, it had now clearly become a huge hidden danger. Without any hesitation, he put it into his ring.
The ring's surface shimmered slightly, and the gold coin vanished as if it had never existed.
He walked to the window, gently pushed it open, and the cool night breeze blew in, bringing a touch of freshness, but also a hint of tension.
Yun Muhan took a deep breath, preparing to leave quietly and avoid unnecessary direct confrontation. He crouched slightly, ready to leap down.
However, just as he was about to leap out of the window, a powerful aura came from downstairs. This aura was like a ferocious beast lurking in the shadows, full of danger and oppression.
Yun Muhan's figure froze instantly. His intuition told him that the owner of this aura was no ordinary person and was likely a powerful opponent.
A flicker of wariness crossed his eyes, but no fear was shown. He swiftly took a piece of cloth from his ring and covered his face with lightning speed, leaving only his sharp eyes visible as he warily surveyed his surroundings.
This cloth not only concealed his identity but also reduced the risk of being recognized to some extent.
At the same time, his right hand gripped the flying sword tightly, its blade gleaming coldly in the night, ready to face any possible battle. The tip of the flying sword trembled slightly, as if sensing its master's tension and anticipation.
Yun Muhan's body was tense, every muscle ready to unleash power at any moment. His breathing became calm and deep, preparing to meet the upcoming challenge.
At this critical moment, Yun Muhan's every move was exceptionally cautious and precise. He knew that every step he took next could be a matter of life and death.
"Dugu Jianling, there's a powerful enemy downstairs. We need to be careful," Yun Muhan said in a low voice.
"Understood, I will be ready to act at any time." A hint of tension was in Dugu Jianling's voice.
Yun Muhan took a deep breath, crouching slightly, preparing to exert his strength. He knew that jumping out of the window might attract attention, but he was even less willing to face the unknown and powerful enemy below. His eyes were resolute; he decided to use the cover of night and his agility to escape quickly.
Just then, the downstairs door was suddenly pushed open, and a figure dressed in a black robe walked in. His steps were steady, each step seemingly leaving a deep mark on the ground.
Yun Muhan could see that the man in black robes was emanating a powerful aura, which made his heart race.
"It seems we don't have much time left," Yun Muhan said in a low voice, his body taut like a bowstring, ready to be released at any moment.
"Jump, I will protect you." Dugu Jianling's voice revealed a hint of determination.
Yun Muhan's movements were swift and decisive; his body leaped out of the window like an arrow released from a bow.
Its body traced a graceful arc in the air, like a shooting star in the night sky, swift and elusive.
Flying swords hovered around him, their light flashing, forming a sturdy protective barrier. It was not only a weapon for attack but also a shield for defense.
The moment he jumped, the man in black robes downstairs seemed to sense the subtle change in the air. He suddenly looked up, a glint of light flashing in his eyes, like a star suddenly shining in the night sky.
His reaction was swift and precise. With a wave of his hand, a powerful energy wave shot out, heading straight for Yun Muhan. This energy wave carried the sound of air being torn apart, its momentum overwhelming, clearly the black-robed man's full-force attack.
Yun Muhan performed a somersault in the air, his body as agile as a hunting eagle. Under his control, his flying sword met the energy fluctuation, and the sword light collided with the energy fluctuation, producing a violent explosion.
The shockwave from the explosion spread through the air like a blooming flower of flame, illuminating the night sky.
Using the impact, Yun Muhan tumbled in the air again, skillfully adjusting his posture and landing steadily on the ground.
The ground seemed to tremble slightly the moment his feet touched the ground, but his body remained as steady as a mountain, without the slightest sway.
Without pausing, Yun Muhan immediately sprinted towards the other end of the street. His steps were firm and swift, each one filled with power and determination.
He knew the man in black wouldn't give up, and he had to leave as soon as possible to find a safe place.
Dugu Jianling reminded Yun Muhan in his heart: "Don't look back, run with all your might, I will keep an eye on the situation behind you."
Yun Muhan was like a ghost in the night, his speed astonishing, each step leaving almost no trace. His figure moved through the shadows of the street, appearing and disappearing as if he had become one with the darkness.
His movements were swift and decisive; every turn and every jump was precise, ensuring he could escape the pursuit at top speed.
As he continued forward, the hustle and bustle of the city was gradually left behind, replaced by an increasingly dark night and a clearer outline of the forest.
On the edge of the city, a dense forest stood silently like a natural barrier, awaiting his arrival.
As soon as he plunged into the forest, Yun Muhan immediately felt an atmosphere completely different from that of the city.
The trees in the forest were tall and dense, their branches intertwining to form a natural shelter. He moved among the trees, each step careful to avoid making any noise that might attract attention.
The city behind them gradually receded into the distance, and those familiar buildings and streets slowly disappeared into the horizon. At the same time, the aura of the man in black robes also gradually dissipated as the distance increased.
The man in black robes said, "So fast! He's only at the sixth level of the Nascent Soul stage, yet he managed to escape from me! This kid is no ordinary person. Go and investigate everything about him."
