In just a matter of seconds, Song Yun dismantled the array.

However, during those seconds, the villagers rushed forward, charging towards Song Yun.

"Forget it, just run,"

cried Gu Zi to Song Yun and Dongfang Yun.

Song Yun then shouted, "Hurry up, you can come out now."

Gu Zi was momentarily stunned, finding it hard to believe Song Yun’s words.

But she didn’t hesitate for long, biting her teeth, she immediately dashed out of the doorway.

The barrier didn’t appear, and Gu Zi successfully exited the room.

"Ah! I got out!"

Gu Zi’s face was full of joy, but inside she was even more astonished.

The array, the most powerful in the village’s thousand-year heritage, was effortlessly broken by Song Yun in just seconds.

Could this...

possibly be a dream?

"Let’s go!"

Dongfang Yun gave Gu Zi a tug, and as Gu Zi returned to her senses and saw the reality before her eyes, she realized she wasn’t dreaming.

She followed Dongfang Yun, running towards the ice cellar, glancing back at Song Yun, who wore a playful smile, unhurriedly following behind.

That composed and calm demeanor was incredibly charming.

But Gu Zi had no time to admire him, as the villagers had already charged right behind Song Yun, swinging fists at him.

"Watch out!"

"Hurry, why are you still standing there?"

Gu Zi and Dongfang Yun both shouted to Song Yun, their faces showing urgency.

Why was Song Yun still strolling along, not afraid of being blocked?

Even with their reminders, Song Yun continued to walk calmly, not dodging or evading the attacking crowd behind him.

Just as Song Yun was about to be hit, suddenly.

An invisible barrier formed behind him, blocking the crowd that was chasing.

The two people at the forefront were even bounced back by the shock.

"What’s going on?"

The crowd was alarmed, halting their pursuit at once.

They focused their eyes and saw that Gu Zi’s stone house had released an invisible barrier, intercepting the crowd laterally rather than covering the stone house.

"What is happening, why did the Hidden Flood Dragon Formation stop us?"

"What has changed, the Hidden Flood Dragon Formation was set by the village chief, why has it changed?"

"Kid, don’t run."

The crowd clamored, but was blocked by the invisible barrier, unable to pursue.

"Wait for me, don’t be hasty."

Song Yun, with a smile, didn’t even look back at the crowd, beckoning calmly to the dumbfounded Dongfang Yun and Gu Zi.

It wasn’t until he reached their side that they snapped out of their shock.

Dongfang Yun glanced at the distant crowd and asked in a deep voice, "Song Yun, how did you do that?"

"It’s simple, just changed the orientation of the array,"

said Song Yun bragging, then his expression changed as he dashed towards the ice cellar: "Run quickly, the barrier can only block one direction, it can’t stop people coming from other directions."

His demeanor was that of a typical show-off who finishes and then runs.

Dongfang Yun and Gu Zi were stunned for a moment, then quickly followed him.

All three ran wildly, suddenly, a powerful aura came from behind, freezing the air and making it difficult to breathe.

"Who dares to take someone from Gu Village?"

A thunderous voice echoed, overwhelming.

The sound resonated in the volcano, causing eardrums to ache.

SSS level!

Song Yun’s expression changed, immediately determining the realm of the person behind.

He hadn’t expected an SSS level expert to be in this place.

Bang.

A loud explosion was heard.

Song Yun looked back to see a brawny man in tiger skin smashing Gu Zi’s stone house with a palm, forcibly destroying the blocking formation.

But Song Yun noticed that he was targeting the array’s core.

This person understood the formation.

The invisible barrier disappeared, and the blocked crowd swiftly chased after Song Yun and the other two.

Behind Song Yun, the pursuing crowd came aggressively, with dozens of powerful auras among them.

Those auras were at least SS level.

Dozens of SS levels, it was terrifying.

And the brawny man in tiger skin was even an SSS level expert.

Evidently, this so-called Gu Village was definitely a force of the Ancient Martial World.

Being chased by so many powerful individuals, Song Yun felt a tingling in his scalp; coming here to save people was like pulling teeth from a tiger’s mouth.

If caught, even with the Black Light Severing Sword, it would be difficult to withstand so many.

Moreover, he couldn’t kill.

The SSS level brawny man’s speed was extremely fast, catching up in an instant.

Gu Zi frowned and said to Song Yun and Dongfang Yun, "You go ahead, I’ll hold them off."

"No need, follow me."

Song Yun shouted, hooking Dongfang Yun with his left arm and Gu Zi with his right, his figure moved, and the trio vanished.

They were only five hundred meters from the ice cellar, and Song Yun used the Phantom Step, arriving at the ice cellar’s entrance in two steps with Gu Zi and Dongfang Yun in tow.

His Phantom Step now reached three hundred meters in one step, equivalent to mid-SSS level.

The chasing brawny man was early SSS level and was immediately left behind.

"Mid-SSS level!"

The tiger skin-clad brawny man exclaimed, wearing a look of disbelief.

Then he realized something was amiss, frowning, "No, it’s SS level, but with a refined movement technique."

"Who exactly is this person?"

The brawny man snorted coldly, fiercely pursuing once more.

At the ice cellar’s entrance.

Gu Zi looked at Song Yun in amazement, "What happened? So fast!"

"No time to explain, talk later, get into the ice cellar quickly."

Dongfang Yun urged, shifting slightly to signal Song Yun to release her and Gu Zi.
