The Heir of the Celestial Diagram

Chapter 32: The Path of Silence

The dense fog was slowly dissipating as Han Feng opened his eyes. He felt a slight unease in his heart, a premonition that something was wrong. His cultivation was progressing, but a feeling of being watched began to intensify.

He stood up and expanded his awareness, trying to detect any strange signs in the surrounding area. However, everything seemed normal. Even so, he trusted his instincts.

With light steps, he moved silently among the trees of the valley, activating his Celestial Veil Art to the fullest. Each step was calculated, each movement was concealed. He knew that, if he were truly being watched, his greatest asset was anonymity.

Han Feng did not head directly to his usual hiding place. Instead, he took an alternative path, enveloped in layers of mist and shadows. If someone were tracking his position, they would be led to a dead end.

Upon reaching a hidden clearing, he felt the mysterious Gu pulse again within his spatial ring. This confirmed his suspicions: something was indeed trying to interfere with his destiny.

"If someone is tracking me, I need to turn the tables."

With a swift motion, Han Feng activated a defensive formation around him. It was a barrier that completely concealed his presence, making him invisible even to trained eyes.

Now, he not only concealed his own cultivation but also eliminated any trace of his existence there.

He then began to refine his strategy. The first thing to do was to understand who was behind him. The second, ensure he wasn't caught off guard. And the third... counterattack at the right moment.

Time passed slowly as he adjusted his plans. The darkness of the night brought new shadows to the valley, but Han Feng was ready.

"If they want to find me... let them come." But it won't be that easy.

Without making a single sound, Han Feng disappeared into the darkness, becoming a ghost in the night.

He was about to start a game of cat and mouse – and he would make sure that this time, he would be the hunter.
