In the middle of the night, if you drowsily see a half-man-sized black fog with alternating scarlet colors slipping into your bedroom, you will probably jump to your feet when you wake up.
Fortunately, Bailang has gradually become accustomed to using practice instead of sleep. He calmly feels that it is no exaggeration to say that there is no problem at all in covering this three-acre of land in his home.
So when the ultimate Yin Qi of Black Mist slipped through the door, he had already noticed it the first time. Until he saw the black mist stopping next to his bed, the scarlet fluorescence in it suddenly gave him a feeling of déjà vu.
"Your Excellency Lingyu?"
Bailang could think of only Lingyu as a being with scarlet fluorescence and such a weird appearance. But shouldn't Lingyu be busy at this time? Yesterday afternoon, I heard Ma Liu say that he dropped the bait and took the bait, but was finally freed. Several Qi refiners in the city lord's mansion suffered varying degrees of injuries. The girl in the white dress whom Bai Lang recommended also disappeared together with the "fish" who took the bait.
Ma Liu was quite panicked and worried all morning. It turned out that everything was just as Bailang told him before. No one blamed the bait for the reason for breaking away after taking the bait, and it was even more impossible to blame it on Ma Liu. So Ma Liu replied to Bailang in the afternoon. Said that everything was going well for the time being.
Bailang also breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't care how the female ghost Lingyu and the black smoke qigong masters who committed crimes in the city would win or lose. He only cared that the matter was settled now. But he didn't expect that things didn't go as he thought, but came full circle and came back to him.
"help me!"
This weak voice sounded from the black mist alternated with scarlet. When it fell into Bai Lang's ears, he was sure that the black mist in front of him that gave him the feeling of déjà vu was indeed the female ghost Lingyu.
Bai Lang didn't answer. I thought quickly in my mind. According to the previous news from Ma Liu, Lingyu had successfully disguised herself the night before yesterday, not only catching the perpetrator of the Qi Refiner, but also getting rid of the pursuit. Therefore, Lingyu knew that something was wrong at this glance and it must not be caused by the pursuit of the Qi Refiners in the City Lord's Mansion.
There can only be one possibility: Lingyu suffered a big loss in the confrontation with the black smoke gas master later.
In the past, the interactions between Bai Lang and the female ghost Lingyu were all exchanges. Even though the latest one has a bit of a threatening feel to it, it can still be said to be a case of everyone getting what they need. After all, if Lingyu hadn't killed Li Jiang and the two by chance, Bailang would have been in a very bad situation at this time.
But now the situation is clear. Moreover, it was Lingyu who needed Bailang's help unilaterally. For the first time, the initiative came to Bailang.
What's the saying? Thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi. Bailang didn't have any ill intentions towards the female ghost Lingyu, and he wasn't prepared to add insult to injury. After all, the other party didn't pose any threat or grudge to him. On the contrary, the other party's weirdness and mystery brought Bailang many opportunities that he should not have had access to. But that doesn't mean you are willing to help in vain.
"What good can I do?"
"Thank you very much!"
There is quite a feeling of cherishing words like gold. This is definitely not Lingyu's normal speaking state. Bailang could see from this that Lingyu's condition was very bad and had reached the point where she couldn't even communicate normally.
In fact, Lingyu's condition at this time was more serious than Bailang expected. It was at a disadvantage after being attacked. Although it had counterattacks, the opponent's evil methods were far more aggressive than Lingyu's in this close life-or-death situation. In other words, Lingyu fell into the opponent's killing environment from the beginning. In addition to her own injuries and Yin Umbrella's inability to use countermeasures in this situation, the situation changed in just one day and night. Falling straight down. It's a time of life and death that Lingyu never thought about before!
As a ghost cultivator who fled from the Immortal Kingdom to Yongchuan City, how could Lingyu have ever imagined that she would be forced to this point by a weak evil that she regarded as an ant in such a cornered place? And it actually couldn't get out of this situation on its own. The psychological impact was even worse than the worsening of the injury.
In the end, Lingyu could only think of Bailang, because the only umbrella she had now was made with Bailang's hands. And in Yongchuan City, the only one who has spiritual energy and can help and Lingyu can trust is Bai Lang. It can be said that Bailang is Lingyu's only life-saving straw.
Although Bai Lang didn't know Lingyu's true condition, he knew that Lingyu must be in danger. He bargained slowly and without nonsense. After the previous transactions, he still had some confidence and trust in the other party.
"How to help you?"
"Grab the red thread and give me spiritual energy!"
Bailang frowned slightly. After hearing Lingyu's request, he suddenly felt a premonition in his heart that "this favor may not be easy to help." But in the end, he didn't choose to sit back and watch. Looking at the small red line stretching out towards him from the black mist, he still reached out and grabbed it.
The moment Bai Lang's hand touched the red line, an extremely strong suction force invaded his body from the red line. For no other reason than to drain the spiritual energy from his body like water.
In just one cup of tea, the spiritual energy in Bailang's body reached below 50% of the body's energy level, immediately triggering the special cultivation state of "hungry and thirsty".
After Bailang thought about it for a moment, he immediately sat down cross-legged and assumed a training posture. While taking advantage of the 20% bonus of the "hungry" training gain, he continued to hold the red thread without letting go. He could feel that the red line should be the pattern of the magic circle on the female ghost Lingyu's yin umbrella, and the spiritual energy he was sending now was directed at the yin umbrella. Based on this speculation, the more spiritual energy Yin Umbrella gets, the sooner Lingyu can get out of trouble. Bailang didn't want this matter to drag on for too long.
With the blessing of "hungry and thirsty" state, although the spiritual energy in Bailang's body was still losing rapidly, the gain of supplementation also greatly slowed down the loss speed. He reluctantly held on for almost an hour before finally giving up.
"Okay. Wait until I come to you."
After leaving this sentence, it was obvious that it was almost covered with scarlet lines. It was not as good as the black mist that dominated the appearance at the beginning. The mist quickly left Bailang's house without knowing where to go.
Bailang smiled weakly, knowing that it was done. He quickly closed his eyes and recovered.
Lingyu, who left, did not stay any longer in the city. He left the city through the east gate and found a secluded corner in the woods where Bai Lang usually practiced swordsmanship. He stopped and started his formal counterattack.
To be honest, Lingyu didn't expect that Bailang could continue to provide it with "so much" spiritual energy. So much so that Yin Umbrella directly regained its strength with the help of these spiritual energies. Not only did it completely suppress the evil spirits, it also gave Lingyu the possibility to use every opportunity to counterattack and devour the opponent...
