The Dark Master Flees in Defeat

To Gu Lan, these opponents were nothing but inconsequential, so he didn't take them seriously. He simply followed the two faint energy signatures towards their source.

Seeing the two hostile figures in front of him, Gu Lan remained unconcerned and did not treat them as a threat.

"Don't waste time here," Gu Lan said dismissively, his tone provoking. "If you want to make a move, just come at me!"

He then gestured provocatively toward the Dark Master. This simple action immediately infuriated him.

"Arrogant!" the Dark Master growled.

"Shadow Slave, kill him!"

With a cold, detached expression, the Dark Master waved his hand, signaling his subordinate to attack.

A figure clad in black appeared beside him, wearing a mask that obscured his face. Gu Lan couldn't discern his appearance, but he could feel that this Shadow Slave was powerful, with strength comparable to the Dark Master.
