Abyss Walker

Chapter 28 Chu Ling Shuang

Yun Muhan instantly summoned the Dragon Blade and stabbed at the woman in front of him. But just as the Dragon Blade was about to touch the woman, her veil fell off, and she smiled gently. Yun Muhan was stunned involuntarily, and the Dragon Blade was instantly frozen.

The woman wore a long blue dress, her hair tied up high, making her look exceptionally beautiful. She had a fair complexion, light-colored eyebrows, a delicate nose, and pale red lips.

The woman's eyes were as calm as the sea, their brilliance undiminished by the gem between her brows. She was as beautiful as a princess from a foreign legend, mysterious and pure, making one wish to hold all the beautiful things in the world at her feet.

"You! How is this possible?" Yun Muhan asked immediately after regaining his senses.

"What's impossible?" the woman said coldly.

"May I ask your honorable name, senior?" Yun Muhan dared not look at her face, afraid of falling for her again.

"Chu Ling Shuang".

"Your appearance is unparalleled, your name is exquisite. I take my leave." Yun Muhan immediately flew away.

"..." Chu Ling Shuang never expected this outcome. "I thought Yun Mu Han was a lecherous playboy, but I didn't expect him to be so devoted to Xi Ling."

Yun Muhan, who was fleeing at this moment, thought: How terrifying! Just one glance can make people fall in love instantly. Even though I lived for three thousand years in my previous life, I have never seen such a monstrous existence.

"Forget it, maybe I was too hasty, or maybe I'm just too scary-looking! Let's leave it all to fate," Chu Ling Shuang muttered to herself.

Yun Muhan moved like a gust of wind through the dense forest, his speed increasing until he almost blended into the surrounding scenery.

His heart was filled with anxiety and unease. Xi Ling's safety weighed heavily on his mind, leaving him no room for complacency.

The appearance of Chu Ling Shuang added a shadow to his heart. He knew that this woman's appearance was by no means accidental, and that every move she made was full of profound meaning.

As Yun Muhan approached Sunset Forest, his senses sharpened, his heart pounded in his chest, almost in sync with his footsteps. His gaze, sharp as a hawk's, swept across every corner ahead, searching for Xi Ling's figure.

Just then, his gaze caught a chilling scene. Not far ahead, a little girl stood on the edge of a cliff, her figure appearing so small and helpless.

Her eyes were filled with terror, and her small hands clung tightly to the rocks at the edge of the cliff, as if they were her only lifeline. Her heels were already dangling in the air; if she took another step back, she would fall into the bottomless abyss.

Tears streamed down the little girl's face, her lips trembling as if she were silently crying out for help. Her clothes fluttered in the wind, a stark contrast to her frail body. Each breath she took seemed so labored, as if she would exhaust all her strength at any moment.

Yun Muhan's movements were swift and decisive; his figure flashed like lightning, creating a gust of wind. His body displayed astonishing agility in the emergency, every movement precise and powerful.

When he swooped down and caught the little girl, his movements were gentle yet swift, ensuring her safety while controlling his strength just right to avoid causing her any discomfort.

The little girl was held tightly in Yun Muhan's arms. Her body trembled slightly from fright, but Yun Muhan's embrace was warm and safe, giving her a sense of comfort.

Yun Muhan's arms were wrapped tightly around her, like an unbreakable wall, protecting her from harm from the outside world.

Yun Muhan turned to face the people who were forcing the little girl. His eyes were cold and sharp, like the cold wind in winter, making people shudder.

His gaze was devoid of any warmth, containing only vehement condemnation and warning towards those people. His eyes exuded an undeniable authority that made it impossible for anyone to look him directly in the eye.

"What are you doing?"

Those people were stunned by Yun Muhan's voice and eyes, and their bodies trembled involuntarily.

Yun Muhan's voice carried an undeniable authority, each word like a heavy hammer blow striking their hearts.

Their initial arrogance vanished instantly in front of Yun Muhan, replaced by a deep sense of fear and unease.

Yun Muhan's aura was powerful and oppressive. He stood there like an inviolable war god, protecting the little girl in his arms.

His figure seemed incredibly tall in the little girl's eyes. She clung tightly to Yun Muhan's clothes, feeling a sense of security she had never felt before.

The air around them seemed to freeze because of Yun Muhan's imposing presence, and a conflict seemed imminent.

"Mind your own business!" one of them shouted, mustering his courage.

Yun Muhan's cold laugh was tinged with disdain. Suddenly, a dragon blade appeared in his hand, its blade emitting a faint, cold light. The sword's radiance flickered as if it were tangible, revealing a powerful aura.

Upon seeing this sudden and powerful weapon, the men could not hide their fear. They began to stagger, and ultimately, under the threat of the Dragon Blade, they chose to flee, their figures quickly disappearing into the night.

Yun Muhan's gaze followed their retreating figures into the distance, and he only truly relaxed once he was certain they had left.

His body relaxed slightly, and the dragon blade vanished as if it had never existed. He turned around, his gaze falling on the little girl, whose eyes were filled with terror, as if the scene just now had a tremendous impact on her mind.

Yun Muhan slowly crouched down, his movements gentle and slow, as if afraid of frightening the little girl. His eyes softened, and his voice lowered to its gentlest tone as he softly asked, "Little girl, are you alright?" His voice was full of care and comfort, trying to ease the little girl's fear.

The little girl blinked, tears still clinging to her long eyelashes. Her small hands gripped the hem of her clothes tightly, and her body trembled slightly.

Her gaze was fixed on Yun Muhan's face, as if searching for a sense of security. Her small face was filled with fear and uncertainty, but as Yun Muhan asked gently, a trace of reassurance gradually appeared in her eyes.

Seeing this, Yun Muhan reached out and gently patted her head. He smiled and said, "Don't be afraid, those bad guys have already run away. Where do you live? I'll take you home."

The little girl bit her lip and whispered, "I have no home..."

Yun Muhan's heart softened. "Then would you like to come with me? I'll take care of you."

The little girl looked up, a hint of hesitation flashing in her eyes, but she finally nodded. Yun Muhan picked up the little girl, and together they flew away into the distance.

Yun Muhan decided to keep her by his side for now and make further plans later.

Along the way, the little girl quietly nestled in Yun Muhan's arms, seemingly feeling his warmth and kindness, and gradually relaxed.
