I'm just an ordinary person passing by.

Such a hasty action is far too reckless.

However, just as Bai Mu expressed his doubts.

The mastermind...slowly mobilized their power.

Accompanied by the power of the mastermind behind the scenes, an overwhelming aura instantly enveloped the surroundings.

Without any superfluous colors or extravagant embellishments, the invisible energy formed a radiance that immediately surged, illuminating the surrounding world as bright as day, and the figure of the white curtain appeared in an instant.

Meanwhile, the superfluous methods shattered... The methods that Bai Mu had painstakingly laid out were not even qualified to resist, and were directly turned into ashes.

—Raise your fist once more!

The earth began to shake once more, and a powerful fist slammed into Bai Mu's body!

With a loud bang, Bai Mu's body transformed into a shooting star and flew into the sky, disappearing from the mastermind's sight almost instantly.

However, the mastermind behind the scenes also took a step down and chased after them.

A streak of light flashed across the sky, and Ye Feng, who had been blasted out of the starry sky by the mastermind behind the scenes, directly passed through layers of flames and arrived in a hazy gray space.

His back was to the gray space, his clear black and white eyes were filled with blood, and from that punch, almost no one could see his internal organs being thrown out.

That's too strong... really too strong.

The punch that slammed into his abdomen was a powerful attack he had never experienced before... an attack so terrifyingly powerful that even he couldn't defend against it with all his strength, sending chills down his spine.

and......

The pain... felt like his body was being torn apart, and it spread from within him, with crimson blood constantly spilling from his mouth.

"Gah!"

Another mouthful of blood spurted out, and the composure in Bai Mu's eyes vanished, replaced by enlightenment... He understood why the mastermind behind the scenes had done this.

He knew the mastermind was very powerful and posed a great threat to him. Having withstood one of his attacks head-on, he became even more convinced of this.

However, he never expected that after using this method, which he considered almost cheating, the White Curtain's attack would be so powerful.

They beat him so badly that he was almost unable to fight.

In other words, the previous white curtain... was really just playing a trick on him!

Just like a cat playing with a mouse...

And this is the real scheme behind it all... by the mastermind!

The mastermind behind the scenes clashed with the White Curtain three times. The first time, the two sides stopped short of using much power and simply competed in terms of momentum.

So this time, Bai Mu only felt that the mastermind behind the scenes was very strong, but he didn't think that the mastermind was that strong or that strong.

The second time was yesterday, when the White Curtain was completely exhausted in a short period of time under the fierce attack of the mastermind behind the scenes.

The immense power revealed by the mastermind this time is almost astonishing... Even a being of the White Curtain's caliber was defeated after exhausting all its strength.

The third time is now... However, only now does Bai Mu truly know the full strength of the mastermind behind the scenes!

The mastermind behind this is... simply feigning weakness to appease the enemy.

Yesterday's battle led Bai Mu to believe that the mastermind's strength was roughly what it was, and that the mastermind wouldn't take the initiative to attack. But now... a portion of their people have arrived here, and the mastermind has revealed their full fighting power.

The others haven't arrived yet. If the white curtain can't hold off the mastermind, then the outcome...

A conspiracy, a blatant conspiracy! Everyone has been outmaneuvered by the mastermind behind it all!

How awful! How awful!!!

The truth made Bai Mu grit his teeth in frustration.

I've schemed against so many others, but I never expected to be schemed against by the mastermind behind it all here!

He knew that someone would come, someone would come to protect Him, but... this was the result He wanted.

When a portion of the group breaks away from the main group, the mastermind behind it all can then take advantage of that group!

Once these people consume the body, their power will be completely weakened, allowing the mastermind and others to fight more easily...

Upon realizing this, Bai Mu's emotions became slightly out of control, but she quickly forced herself to calm down.

He was ultimately able to control his emotions... After taking a deep breath, he began to think deeply.

Bai Mu knew very well that what he needed to do now was not to get angry or furious, but to calm down... Anger would not solve his problems; only calmness could!

Calm down... calm down properly... coming here was a mistake, I shouldn't have chosen to come, but what's done is done, there's no time to dwell on it anymore, I have to come up with a suitable solution as soon as possible... I have to deal with this crisis!

"Our teammates are on their way... The tide of battle over there hasn't turned significantly yet... I'm the one who needs to hold him off... I can't attack anymore, I can't make any more mistakes... Hold him off, I must do everything in my power to hold him off!!!"

After realizing the mistake he had made, Bai Mu understood that he only had one chance to turn the tide: to stall... to stall the mastermind behind the scenes and prevent him from helping the others.

Therefore... he must find a way to stall the mastermind as soon as possible. Only by stalling the mastermind can he find a way to recover from his injuries and regain his strength.

With our current weak combat strength, there is absolutely no way we can contend with the mastermind behind the scenes!

Chapter 395 The First Blood Was Finally Gave Away

Feeling the burning sensation in his abdomen, he knew he had almost no strength left. The mastermind behind him was in such good condition that if he continued fighting, he would undoubtedly be defeated.

However, it's not that there's absolutely no chance of winning.

He's in a very bad state right now, and I don't know how long he can hold on, but I can't give up the struggle, I absolutely can't give up!

As long as I find a chance to recover and return my strength to its original state, and as long as I can keep him occupied until the other teams arrive on the battlefield, then victory will undoubtedly be mine!

Bai Mu gritted his teeth, using his remaining strength to suppress his retreating figure, and then began to set up his methods again.

Although Bai Mu's methods of stalling others are just last-minute measures, there's no time to worry about that now. More methods mean more opportunities, and when danger comes, he can use his diverse skills to avoid it.

And now... that's how it is.

As long as he can set up his own methods... as long as he can set up many methods, he can use the power of these methods to recover himself and buy time.

However, just as he did so, a sound of something cutting through the air, accompanied by a deafening explosion, reached his ears.

The extreme speed at which it tore through the air was so fast that it made one's ears tremble.

Even Bai Mu's heart couldn't help but tremble.

His instincts told him that the mastermind was catching up!

"Wow, that's really fast... Can't people have a little time to rest?"

Bai Mu couldn't help but mutter this to himself, but of course, it was just a mutter. Knowing the other party's purpose, Bai Mu was very clear that he would not be let go.

The mastermind will definitely do everything in their power to kill him as quickly as possible, and then go on to kill the others.

So, Bai Mu took a deep breath and decisively turned around to create distance.

He had clearly grasped the power of the mastermind behind the scenes and was absolutely unwilling to confront him head-on again. So without any hesitation, he turned around and chose to fly deeper into the area.

Regardless, first create some distance!

However, endless spiritual power surged out without warning, and indescribable pressure filled the entire space. In that instant, Bai Mu could feel that the entire space seemed to have sunk into a quagmire. Both the space and the hazy mist slowed down, as if everything here had been affected.

"Are you... scared?"

"Running away in such a sorry state is not in keeping with your courage."

"Should I stay... and continue fighting with you?"

The voice reached my ears; it was the first time the mastermind had spoken during the battle, and the voice seemed to be right next to my ear.

Bai Mu turned his head, and Bai Mu's figure reappeared in his field of vision.

That was the first time he spoke, and his words were full of provocation, but Bai Mu didn't care at all.

What does it mean to slink away in disgrace? This is a strategic retreat. Strategy, strategy, do you understand?

You don't understand, this is the supreme law of humankind.

Besides, it's simply impossible to go toe-to-toe with a monster like you!

Normally, Bai Mu would probably have stopped in his tracks after hearing those words. After all, being provoked like that, it would be a sign of his good temper if he didn't beat the person to a pulp.

However, there was nothing they could do; the White Curtain simply couldn't beat them.

Moreover, Bai Mu had anticipated this situation. Judging from the collision and fighting just now, it was only natural that he would be caught up.

And because he had anticipated this, he did not stop his progress this time.

He had no intention of falling for the same guy twice.

Therefore, when faced with the fist that silently caught up and came crashing down, Bai Mu's figure, which was enveloped in energy, was immediately dyed completely the color of ice... as if it had turned into a piece of ice crystal.

And that terrifying fist struck him once again!

But... this time, the terrifying fist did not directly blast the white curtain into a daze.

Despite being protected by energy and the will of the universe, the attack from the mastermind behind the scenes was extremely powerful and could not possibly be blocked by the white curtain.

The mastermind felt it; his fist had touched a solid object, and the force had naturally shattered the energy shield. However, he still felt a sense of emptiness.

Some strange methods...

On the face that was not clearly visible, there seemed to be a strange yet serene expression.

He looked at the thing in front of him. Because the colors were the same, the mastermind did not realize the specific situation for a moment. If it weren't for the fact that He was holding nothing back and the power that burst out in an instant was too terrifying, shattering this trick, the mastermind probably would not have realized the reason behind it.

The ability to create such an illusion in an instant—this isn't the power of the White Curtain, but the power of the universe... The will of the universe also fell upon the White Curtain at this moment.

Knowing the current crisis, they entrusted everything to the White Curtain without holding back...

The mastermind realized that his attack had been mostly blocked... without harming his core.

but......

Can you hold them off for a while, or forever?

The mastermind didn't pay any attention, simply watching the scene before him quietly. Then, his gaze shifted slightly, silently looking down behind him. In the space shrouded in gray mist, a figure was rapidly approaching the mist.

—White Curtain!

After blocking the attack from the mastermind, Bai Mu used a sneaky maneuver to escape from the mastermind's sight and immediately tried to break free of the predicament, trying to buy himself as much time as possible.

In less than a minute, I had already suffered such serious injuries. If I didn't create some distance, I might die here.

However, as he expected, but also unexpectedly, not long after he escaped from the original place, the mastermind discovered him again!
