Unfortunate Conflict
Lin Mu's slammed into the wall of the house, creating a loud noise. If the scream of the woman had not woken up the people in the house, this definitely did.
'Dammit, what happened?' Lin Mu thought as he probed the wall with his spirit sense.
There were now formations active on the wall, but they were concealed inside it. They were not fully active before and thus Lin Mu was able to use his spirit sense on them, but it seemed like the woman had activated the defensive formations.
This had blocked Lin Mu from leaving the house even when he used blink in combination with phase. Suddenly Lin Mu felt danger and dodged to the side.

A blade was stuck inside the wall that Lin Mu was standing in front of before. He looked back and saw that the old man who had been sleeping had woken up and was the one who had thrown the blade at him. Meanwhile, the woman was standing behind the old man and had covered herself with the blanket.
