Chapter 4505: 5.0257 Like a Stray Dog

Luo He gritted his teeth and threw out dozens more Profound Yin Talismans.

At the same time, he spun around and tossed out a teleportation array, enveloping everyone. "Go!"

"Thump!"

"Thump-thump-thump."

A series of thuds and cries of "ouch" echoed one after another.

Everyone stumbled and rolled out of the array, falling to the ground in a heap.

A young man shouted angrily, "Your foot is on my face, get it off!"

"What's going on? Why is this array so bumpy?"

"Pfft." Luo He spat out a mouthful of blood, his face pale, and looked down at the jade talismans in his hand, which had crumbled into dust. His face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.

Elder Zhuang reached out to support him, then said thoughtfully, "You need to meditate and recover as quickly as possible."

Luo He didn't waste words with him; his situation was dire.

The continuous overdrawing of his talismanic energy had pushed his entire body to a critical point.

If he didn't recover soon, his talismanic energy might be completely depleted.

Elder Zhuang stood up, glanced at everyone, then approached Mu Xiaoxue, bowing respectfully to her. "Miss, we need Master Mouyang's help now."

Mu Xiaoxue, unable to speak or move, painstakingly curled her fingers.

Elder Zhuang nodded, apologized for the offense, and reached out to take a blue crystal necklace from her neck.

As the spatial container emitted a brilliant light, an old man, around seventy years old, with white hair and eyebrows, high cheekbones, and a hint of gloom in his eyes, floated out.

"Master Mou," Elder Zhuang cupped his hands and said, "Please set up a defensive array here that hides our aura. Master Luo needs to recover."

The old man named Mouyang merely flickered his eyelids, his attitude indifferent. "Even if this master expends effort to set up a hidden defensive array, it might not escape their eyes."

"This secret realm has guardians. The other party is perfectly familiar with the terrain, landscape, and surrounding environment here."

"Do you think you, a group of old, weak, and sick people, can escape?"

A hint of anger flashed in Elder Zhuang's eyes. "Master Mou, don't forget the oath you swore before leaving the branch hall: to protect Miss with your life!"

"Hmph." Mouyang snorted coldly. "I only need to protect Miss's safety alone."

"You!" Elder Zhuang was angered by his indifferent attitude.

"Master Mou!"

"Enough." Mouyang sneered, waving his hand. "For Miss's sake, I'll help you again."

He turned back and cast a sinister gaze upon the many disciples of Shadow City.

The disciples shivered subtly as his gloomy gaze swept over them.

This senior had appeared once or twice before, and according to their junior sister, he was an incredibly formidable array master.

However, his eyes were terrifyingly sinister, and no one dared to meet his gaze.

Mouyang stood in the middle of the crowd, scanning everyone present with ill intent. Suddenly, he flicked his fingers repeatedly, and several perfectly polished crystal stones were rapidly launched into the air by bursts of energy from his fingertips.

A light barrier then descended, quickly enveloping everyone present.

If someone were outside at this moment, they would surely discover that the auras of over a hundred people had instantly been concealed.

It was as if all these people had suddenly been submerged in the sea, vanishing without a trace.
