The bright moonlight shone through the hole in the roof and sprinkled on the messy living room.

For a moment, it was silent, with only the occasional rustling sound of gravel falling.

The black-robed man looked around solemnly.

At this moment, a sizzling sound suddenly filled the silent living room.

Before the black-robed man could find the direction of the voice, he saw that a large amount of water, smoke, and clouds had appeared in the living room. In the blink of an eye, it formed a fog barrier.

The entire living room turned white!

Everything around him suddenly became indistinct. As the light shifted, things became elusive.

“Hidden Fog Talisman!”

The black-robed man raised his eyebrows.

Just as he was about to cast a spell to disperse the fog, he suddenly saw a figure flash past from the corner of his eye. In the blink of an eye, he rushed to the entrance and broke through the door with a bang, running out.

“Don’t even think about it!”

The black-robed man snorted coldly. In a flash, he appeared on the street outside.

Considering that it might be a smokescreen cast by Lin Shen, he also took out an illusion-breaking talisman and shook his finger. The talisman instantly ignited on its own without any wind, turning into a ball of golden light that covered his eyes.

Looking closely, the black-robed man nodded slightly. He was convinced that it was Lin Shen.

Seeing this, he didn’t delay any longer and chased after the figure in the distance.

He had to capture this kid as soon as possible so that he wouldn’t b.u.mp into the Martial Enforcement Hall members who came to check.

Before long, the black-robed man disappeared into the night.

The ruined villa was silent again.

After a moment, there was a sudden crash, and the rubble in the corner of the ruins scattered. A figure slowly stood up.

“That was close. I almost lost my life!”

Patting the dust off his body, Lin Shen heaved a long sigh of relief.

The black-robed man’s Dharma treasure was indeed very powerful. If not for the fact that he had summoned his clone under the cover of the dust the moment he was. .h.i.t, he would have been severely injured.

That man was at the ninth level of the Bright Aperture Stage and coupled with the powerful Dharma treasure, his strength was already not something Lin Shen could contend with.

If he wasn’t careful, he might not even be able to survive, let alone escape!

Therefore, when he landed in the living room on the first floor, Lin Shen decisively used the Hidden Fog Talisman and let his clone pretend to escape. Meanwhile, he quickly pasted a Concealment Talisman and an Invisibility Talisman on his body to eliminate his aura and hide under the ruins.

Fortunately, luck was on Lin Shen’s side.

Perhaps the commotion caused by the inkstone attack was too great, affecting the judgment of the black-robed man. Coupled with the effect of the Hidden Fog Talisman blocking his senses, he didn’t notice Lin Shen’s trick.

To ensure that his clone wouldn’t be recognized, Lin Shen even let it carry a storage bag and a Six Yang Talisman Sword.

“The two items add up to more than 20 minor merits. This is a huge loss.” Lin Shen sighed.

This was the first time he hadn’t obtained any spoils of war from the enemy. Instead, he had suffered a loss.

Sighing again, Lin Shen composed himself and chased after the black-robed man.

Now wasn’t the time to heave a sigh of relief.

If the clone was too far away from himself, it would quickly disappear. At that time, the black-robed man would immediately realize that something was wrong and return to hunt him down.

Lin Shen could not guarantee that he, who was injured and on the verge of exhausting his spiritual essence and stamina, could successfully escape back to the academy before being captured by the black-robed man.

Besides… even if he escaped back to the academy, it didn’t mean that he would be safe!

Lin Shen’s gaze turned slightly cold as he recalled the five-colored ball of energy that the black-robed man had just used.

No matter how he looked at it, the characteristics of that spell were very similar to the description of the “Five Tranquil Energy” he had seen on the Merit Hall’s exchange list!

It was a technique unique to the Nine Suns Sect!

In other words, the black-robed man was very likely a member of the Nine Suns Sect or even the Nine Yang Academy!

At the thought of this, Lin Shen shuddered.

The people of the Wild Wolves were hiding in the Nine Yang Academy, and they were plotting against him. No matter how he thought about it, it made his blood curdle.

How could one guard against one’s enemy around the clock?

If he didn’t find out who that person was, he wouldn’t be able to sleep well for the rest of his life!

Therefore, it was best to use his clone to stall the black-robed man until dawn.

Even if the black-robed man was given ten times the courage, he wouldn’t dare to commit murder in broad daylight!

Then, he would take this opportunity to find the black-robed man’s hiding place. After that…

A dark light flashed across Lin Shen’s eyes as he quickened his pace and ran forward.

As he ran, he took out the Energy Recovery Pill and Revival Pill from his storage ring and consumed them. He mobilized his spiritual essence to quickly digest the medicinal effects.

At this moment, the distance between him and his clone had already exceeded 2,000 meters, and the spiritual essence in his body was constantly being consumed.

A few minutes later, Lin Shen’s expression changed slightly.

“Has it been caught…”

Without stopping, Lin Shen took this opportunity to quickly close the distance between him and his clone.

With the Concealment Talisman and Invisibility Talisman, as long as he didn’t get within 500 meters of the black-robed man and stayed in an open area, he wouldn’t have to worry about being noticed by the black-robed man.

After all, spirit resonance wasn’t like spiritual consciousness. Not only was it extremely penetrative, but it could also scan and sense auras.

As expected, after grabbing the clone, the black-robed man immediately changed directions and ran toward the South District.

“This guy hiding in the South District?”

Lin Shen was surprised.

The South District was known as the place where the rich gathered. There were even many cultivators who lived there.

However, on second thought, the Wild Wolves’ stronghold discovered by the Martial Enforcement Hall was also in the South District.

“Do the people of the Wild Wolves believe that the most dangerous place is the safest place?”
