Just as Hu Qian was about to pass through the golden goal, a dark crack suddenly appeared in the middle of the goal.

Li Yunqing was originally watching the show from the back. However, after suddenly feeling this strange spatial fluctuation, he went forward and retracted the three children without hesitation.

Hu Qian had already arrived in front of the black crack and was about to enter it when Li Yuanqing waved his sleeve and swept her to his side.

“Master, we’re about to win!”

Hu Qian’s attention was still on Yang Tianqi and Liu Wen just now, and she did not notice the danger she was facing at all.

At this moment, she noticed Li Yuanqing’s gaze and looked over. Only then did she realize that the golden goal had been completely torn open by a black crack. From the black spatial crack, a body covered in blood rolled out.

The body fell from the sky and landed on the lawn below.

Bai Mei did not forget to wave his hand in midair and dissipate the spatial crack.

He was covered in blood and panting as he lay on the lawn. There were two very terrifying openings in his waist and abdomen, and hot blood was still gushing out of them.

Moreover, the spiritual energy in his body was constantly corroded by the strange black energy because of his wounds. The power was already invading deeper and deeper from the wound.

Bai Mei barely managed to stabilize his injuries, but his injuries were too serious. It was already very difficult for him to survive. At this moment, he could no longer care about the surrounding situation.

Li Yuanqing landed beside Bai Mei with the three children. Looking at Bai Mei’s broken body, he still maintained a high vigilance. He was very familiar with the power emitted from this fellow. It was the power unique to the legendary Immortal World.

This person was clearly not from the Demon Realm. Moreover, the aura of this person felt very familiar and terrifying. It felt like the aura of two puppets, but it was many times more terrifying than the puppets.

“Who are you? Why did you break in here? Did you buy a ticket?”

Liu Wen took a step forward and questioned Bai Mei.

Only then did Bai Mei focus on the people beside him. He looked around and his gaze landed on Li Yuanqing’s face. He was extremely familiar with this face. The last person he had seen was this person in front of him.

“Li Yuanqing!”

Li Yuanqing looked at Bai Mei in confusion and carefully pulled Liu Wen behind him.

“You know me?”

“Hahaha…” Bai Mei had just laughed when he immediately spat out a mouthful of blood. He had no choice but to stop laughing and look at Li Yuanqing coldly. “It’s you who caused me to be like this.”

Li Yuanqing frowned and said unhappily, “Senior, I have no grudge with you in the past or recently. We’ve never met before. How can you say that I’ve harmed you? You can’t slander me.”

Bai Mei forced himself to sit up with one hand. He took out a small dark bottle and poured out an equally dark pill with trembling hands. He stuffed it into his mouth. His Adam’s apple moved slightly as he swallowed the pill. After swallowing the pill, the trembling of his body finally weakened a lot, as if he felt much better.

“You’ve never seen me before, but I’m very familiar with you.”

After Bai Mei recovered for a moment, although his face was still very pale, he had regained some color. He looked at Li Yuanqing coldly, a hint of struggle flashing across his eyes.

Li Yuanqing caught a faint killing intent and retreated carefully. He seemed to have guessed something.

“Senior, no matter what grudges we had before, I feel that you guys provoked me first. Isn’t that right?”

Bai Mei sneered coldly and looked at Li Yuanqing. “Kid, only I can save you now. You have to help me so that we can all survive!”

“I don’t know what you mean.”

“You don’t know me, but you should know Black Dragon, right?” Bai Mei let out a long breath. The poison in his body had been temporarily suppressed, but if he wanted to completely remove it, he would probably need to focus for a period of time.

Li Yuanqing was finally certain of his guess. He looked at Bai Mei and said, “In that case, the two puppets from before should have been done by you?”

“My two well-made puppets were both destroyed in the hands of an unknown human. I’m really ashamed.”

“You and Black Dragon are clearly brothers who work together. Why did you come over and say such things to me today? Could it be that the two of you have fallen out?”

The three children were a little confused as they listened to their conversation. However, they had more or less heard of the legend of the Black Dragon.

If the person in front of him was a friend of the Black Dragon, how powerful would he be?

Daoist Bai Mei gritted his teeth and looked at the empty space. He said slowly, “I’ve known the Black Dragon for hundreds of years.”

“What made the two of you, who have known each other for so long, suddenly fall out?”

Daoist Bai Mei looked at Li Yuanqing meaningfully. “You know my relationship with the Black Dragon. You also know that the two of us have fought many times before. Aren’t you afraid that I will kill you now?”

“Senior, if you wanted to attack, I’m afraid you wouldn’t have landed in front of me in such a sorry state. I’m afraid you don’t have a choice now.”

Bai mei sized up Li Yuanqing’s aura uncertainly. Why did it become so strange?

“Why do you have the aura of the Immortal World? Who are you?”

“I’m just an ordinary cultivator from the lower realm. I’m afraid I’m not worthy of your attention.”

“No, I get it. I should never have set my sights on you in the first place. It was a mistake from the beginning.”

Daoist Bai Mei smiled miserably. Wasn’t it obvious that everything, including the Dharma treasure on Li Yuanqing and his proud Number Thirty-six had been taken away?

Li Yuanqing was clearly sent down from the upper realm. They had probably discovered Black Dragon’s deeds in the lower realm and sent him down. Otherwise, he would not have failed so many times in the past when he thought that victory was in his grasp.

In addition, after meeting him today, he realized that Li Yuanqing actually had the aura of the Immortal World on him. This person was clearly from the Immortal World. He did not expect him to hide it so deeply.

Li Yunqing did not know what he meant. Although he felt that it was a little strange, he did not deny it.

“Senior, as a demon, you naturally have to live in peace with the human race. You naturally can’t force the human race everywhere.”

“There’s no need to say those words. The Black Dragon will be here soon. He’s afraid of the strength of those old fellows from the human race and definitely won’t dare to come here with his true body. However, he still knows how to play some tricks.”

Li Yuanqing’s expression did not look too good. Originally, they had held such a grand banquet to celebrate their loyalty to the human race and welcome a long-lost peace. However, he did not expect Bai Mei to provoke this disaster again.

“Senior, if I’m not wrong, this should be a personal grudge between the two of you. It should have nothing to do with us humans.”

“You have no choice!”

“Senior, aren’t you too confident?”

Daoist Bai Mei threw out three small dolls from his tattered Daoist robe. After the little guys landed on the ground and rolled, it suddenly grew larger. Immediately after, the three little people rolled twice on the ground and slowly stood up. They actually turned into three adult-sized puppets.

The three puppets stood in front of Daoist Bai Mei. He looked at Li Yuanqing and said, “Kid, I know that you care a lot about the humans here. Perhaps I can’t touch you, but it’s still easy for me to take away hundreds of thousands of lives before I die. I think it’s a mutually beneficial matter between us. There’s no need to be so tense.”

Li Yuanqing looked at Bai Mei unhappily. It was fine if this fellow came over without saying anything, but he even pretended to blackmail him. If he did not cooperate with him, he would clearly attack the people of Ping City.

“Senior, I’m afraid this isn’t the attitude of asking for cooperation, right?”

“Little guy, I’m already in this state. Do you expect me to be righteous?”

“What do you want to do?”

“It’s simple. All I need is for you to help me get rid of Black Dragon.”

“Don’t you need to pay something, Senior?”

Daoist Bai Mei smiled and two wooden balls appeared in his hands.

“Little guy, I see that you’re also good at puppet technique. However, you seem to be better at the contract book. You’re still inexperienced in how to create puppets. If you can help me tide over this crisis, not only can I give you a few finished products, but I can also give you a book of puppet techniques from the Divine Secrets Sect of the Immortal World.”

“Puppet technique?”

“This is a famous book in the Immortal World. As long as you comprehend this book thoroughly, it will greatly increase your strength. You have to think carefully.”

This thing was quite attractive to Li Yuanqing. He was especially envious of Daoist Bai Mei for being able to refine such a powerful puppet. If he could learn the puppet technique of the Immortal World, it would be worth it even if he had to pay a price.

“How is it, little guy? Have you considered it? If you don’t agree, I’ll have to hide in the other small worlds. If not for your background, I wouldn’t want you to take advantage of me.”

“But how can I resist Black Dragon with my strength?”

Daoist Bai Mei smiled and looked at Li Yuanqing. “Don’t worry. The Black Dragon knows that someone from your human race is keeping an eye on the lower realm. He won’t dare to attack you. He’s only here for me. You just need to kill all of the Black Dragon’s clones. That’s considered helping me.”

“But Black Dragon is powerful. How many clones can he create? I can’t possibly stay here to protect you forever, right?”

“You don’t have to worry about that. It only needs a month. After a month, when my body is almost recovered, I will find a place to hide. At that time, I will naturally give you this puppet technique.”

“Alright, that’s settled!”

“I think your array formation is quite good. I’ll hide here first.”

Black Dragon, who was a hundred miles away from Ping City, gritted his teeth and looked in the direction of Ping City. This huge city was located there. He searched for Bai Mei’s tracks and chased him all the way here.

Bai Mei was really sinister. He had resolved such an exquisite scheme. Who would have thought that this person actually had a Substitute Talisman? If not for that Substitute Talisman, he would have died ten thousand times over. He had relied on that powerful Substitute Talisman to escape to Ping City.

This was troublesome.

In Ping City, Li Yuanqing had the protection of a human big shot from the Immortal World. If he dared to attack rashly, he would definitely be discovered by the humans. He could not kill all those humans and was afraid of being discovered by the humans from the Immortal World. He could not attack personally this time.

Behind him, four veiled clones stood quietly.

“Hide here.”

In the air of Ping City, a yellow dot of light flickered faintly. Black Dragon had already locked onto the location of Bai Mei. He was hiding in the air of Ping City. No one knew why he was hiding there.

“Go! Kill him! Get that Substitute Talisman back!”

Although the Substitute Talisman was precious, it had its limitations. Firstly, there was a certain limit to the number of times it could be used. This was uncertain according to its grade.

There was also a certain cooldown time. After using it once, it required a very long recovery time. That fellow only had this Substitute Talisman at most. Any more would definitely be gone.

As long as he let these clones work and kill Bai Mei, his treasures and a life-saving Substitute Talisman would be worth it.

The four black shadows silently sneaked into the darkness and arrived at the periphery of Ping City.

The atmosphere in Ping City was very lively. The people outside the city could even hear the commotion clearly. There were also fireworks that filled the sky and all kinds of lights. It was so lively.

These black dragon’s clones sneaked into Ping City under the cover of the night and mixed into the crowd.

The amusement city in the sky had actually opened early today. The original notice was that it would only open tomorrow, but the progress was actually much earlier. They would start welcoming guests today, and there were basically no conditions. Everyone only needed a medium-grade spirit stone to play inside for an entire day.

These black dragon’s clones also silently bought a ticket from the queue. Daoist Bai Mei was hiding in the amusement park in the sky.

“Sir, each ticket can only stay in there for one day. When the time is up, it will automatically return to the waiting area below. Do you understand?”

The black dragon clone nodded impatiently.

“Sir, please enter in an orderly line at the front. Have a good time.”
