"Are you kidding me? Are these guys dogs?"
Bai Ye was startled. They had come too quickly.
There were far more of those golden-armored soldiers than he had imagined, covering almost every corner of the city. Was that why they could find him with a simple search?
Thinking this, Bai Ye quickly sprinted to the side, taking the stairs up another floor.
As soon as Bai Ye reached the upper floor, two golden-armored soldiers were descending the stairs, meeting him face-to-face.
Bai Ye was resigned. His luck was probably beyond saving.
Those two golden-armored soldiers hadn't expected to run into him like this. Their captain could know Bai Ye's location, but it was like a dot on a flat map. If Bai Ye was inside a building, they could only know he was within the building.
As for which floor Bai Ye was on within the building, they had no idea and would have to search slowly. Yet, they had bumped into each other like this, so the two golden-armored soldiers were also quite surprised and momentarily stunned.
Ultimately, Bai Ye was the first to recover. He sharply raised his leg and kicked one of the golden-armored soldiers in the chest, sending him flying.
After kicking the opponent away, Bai Ye sprinted towards the side.
The two golden-armored soldiers shouted and quickly gave chase.
As Bai Ye ran, he glanced around and his eyebrows immediately shot up.
This floor was selling robots.
There were all sorts of robots scattered about, including various exotic beasts, all designed for combat or riding.
There were also some humanoid ones, which could be used as maids and servants. Some were quite retro, made of wood using the craftsmanship of Lu Ban.
This was the perfect place for him to show off.
His Mechanical Reconstruction ability activated, and the robots in the shops on the side instantly shattered into pieces, collapsing into a pile of parts. Then...
Bai Ye waved his hand, and the parts, as if pulled by an invisible force, all flew up and assembled into small turrets.
In the next instant, the turrets fired, sending beams of light, as thick as a thumb, shooting forward.
Boom, boom, boom!
The interior of the building, just like the exterior, had defensive barriers that automatically activated when attacks threatened to damage the structure.
However, the fluctuations and impact force after hitting the barrier still existed.
The surrounding objects were instantly blown away, and the golden-armored soldiers closing in on Bai Ye were also swept away by the blast wave.
Bai Ye waved his hand again, and all the robots on the side turned into parts and quickly reassembled into a swarm of small robots, which began firing and advancing forward.
Using the robots and turrets to block the pursuers, Bai Ye immediately turned and ran, spotting the passage to the suspension bridge on the side and leaping out swiftly.
Behind Bai Ye, a pair of huge fiery wings unfurled, carrying him away into the distance.
But Bai Ye hadn't flown far when, suddenly, a figure appeared, blocking his path.
The person was clad in azure armor and held a golden hammer, incredibly large, about half a person's height.
However, the man himself didn't appear tall. His face was handsome, yet exuded an air of heroic spirit.
After appearing, the man exhaled towards Bai Ye.
In an instant, a fierce wind raged around, kicking up sand and stones. Bai Ye was forcefully blown back. His unfurled wings flapped furiously but were useless; he could only barely stabilize himself in the wind.
Several golden-armored soldiers ran onto the suspension bridge. Upon seeing the man, they immediately knelt and said, "Greetings, Lord Juling Shen!"
Juling Shen?
That unlucky fellow beaten by Bima Wen?
This guy actually looked so handsome?
No wonder he got beaten. Without even considering what Sun Wukong looked like, just based on his face, he deserved to be beaten.
Men didn't like those handsomer than themselves.
On the other side, Juling Shen waved his hand at the golden-armored soldiers, signaling them to be quiet, then looked at Bai Ye and said, "I am on duty today. I wish for peace and quiet. Mortal, can you fulfill this small wish of mine?"
Bai Ye spread his hands and said, "I'd love to agree, but it seems unlikely."
Juling Shen replied, "Then you can't blame me."
As Juling Shen spoke, his figure flickered, and he suddenly appeared in front of Bai Ye, raising his single hammer and smashing it down towards Bai Ye.
This guy...
So fast!
Bai Ye was truly startled by Juling Shen's speed.
This guy, carrying two unimaginably large hammers, could move this fast?
Bai Ye didn't even have time to elementalize his body. He could only instinctively fold his wings behind him, forming a defense.
With a boom, Bai Ye was directly slammed into a building on the side. Just as he was about to hit it, a barrier appeared on the building, stopping him.
Bai Ye grimaced. That blow had shattered a portion of his Phoenix Tail Wings, leaving only one damaged wing.
At the same time, the immense force made Bai Ye feel as if all his bones were trembling. Although it was only a superficial injury that would pass with pain, the power of the first strike was truly alarming.
After the blow, Juling Shen, seeing that Bai Ye was unharmed, showed a look of surprise. "As a mortal, you are more capable than I expected. No wonder you could intrude here."
While Juling Shen spoke, his hands did not stop. He raised his hammer and smashed it towards Bai Ye again.
The colossal hammer broke through the air, transforming into a golden light and descending, heading straight for Bai Ye.
Sizzle!
Bai Ye's figure flashed, and he quickly transformed into a bolt of lightning, soaring upwards.
With a bang!
The golden light, formed by the colossal hammer, collided with the building, but it was also stopped. The building's barrier was more solid than expected.
Failing to hit his target, Juling Shen looked up. He saw that the lightning Bai Ye had transformed into was about to disappear. Even Juling Shen wasn't confident he could catch up at that speed.
Teleportation, traveling through void, was not something that could be caught up to just by chasing. However...
Juling Shen suddenly raised his hammer and smashed it forcefully towards the side.
With a clang!
Although it was just an attack into the void, Juling Shen's hammer strike seemed to hit an invisible wall, emitting a loud noise.
Countless cracks suddenly appeared in the air, as if a wall had been smashed open.
Then...
The cracking black lines continued upwards, blocking Bai Ye's path.
In the next instant, Bai Ye reappeared from the lightning, a look of surprise on his face.
He had actually been intercepted!
Bai Ye looked down in astonishment at Juling Shen. This guy had forcibly broken through space and used the shattered space to sever the electrical field.
It was like a piece of paper. Bai Ye's teleportation could move freely on the paper, but if the paper was cut, Bai Ye could only move on half the paper.
Theoretically, Bai Ye's random movements couldn't be stopped, but this method could compress the area Bai Ye could move within.
