My sister is Luna

He actually knew my name and was waiting for me here with a purpose. Who is he?

Marco Polo was extremely surprised. He hadn't expected that someone would be watching him without him even realizing it. Chang'an City was indeed full of hidden talents.

"who are you?"

Marco Polo asked with suspicion, his eyes filled with vigilance. At the same time, his mind raced, searching for a solution. Time was of the essence; Li Bai was about to arrive, and he had to find a way to escape his predicament.

"You don't need to know who I am. Just treat me as a chivalrous knight-errant passing by," the young man in the Taoist robe said calmly, his face expressionless.

“Then, my righteous and chivalrous brother, have you misunderstood something? Could you please let me go? Perhaps we can have a proper talk.” Marco Polo smiled, trying to make his tone sound friendly.

“There’s no misunderstanding. The person I’m looking to arrest is you. I’ve been watching you for a long time. Don’t even think about escaping. My master’s premonition was right. He sent me to Chang’an to observe and wait for the rabbit to run into the tree stump. You are that rabbit!” The young man in the Taoist robe said without any politeness.

"You think you can control me by grabbing one of my hands?" Marco Polo smirked, took out a gun from his pocket with his free hand, and pointed it at the chest of the young man in the Taoist uniform.

"Hey, you!" The young man in the Taoist robe opened his mouth in surprise, but before he could finish speaking, a bullet as dazzling as the sun in the darkness struck his chest and sent him flying.

But finding that the young man in the Taoist robe was not seriously injured, Marco Polo had a sudden idea. He threw the fake key to him, and then secretly kicked the real key behind him with his left foot. The young man in the Taoist robe instinctively caught the fake key that was thrown to him.

"They must have fallen here. Hey, what are you doing so late at night? Have you seen a blue glowing cube?" Li Bai asked as he walked over.

"I was just passing by; he's in that man's hands." Marco Polo pulled down his hood, pretending to be flustered, and said this before turning and staggering away.

"Give me that cube in your hand." Li Bai's attention was diverted by the cube in the Taoist-robed youth's hand. He walked closer and said, his eyes fixed on the cube.

"I know you, Li Bai. My name is Zhang Taixian, courtesy name Bingxin. Please listen to me. This is a fake. The real one is in Marco Polo's hands. We must catch up with him quickly," Zhang Taixian said hastily, lifting his foot to chase after Marco Polo.

"Then you have to hand it over first." Li Bai thought this person was deceiving him, so he drew his long sword, pointed it at him, and stopped him from leaving, his expression serious.

"Alright, as long as you trust me." With that, the Taoist-robed youth, having no other choice, could only raise the fake key, preparing to hand it to Li Bai.

"Wait!" Li Bai suddenly shouted. Looking at the gleaming fake key, Li Bai suddenly had a bad feeling.

"What's wrong?" the young man in the Taoist robe asked, holding up the fake key, his face full of confusion.

"Drip-drip-"

"What's that sound?" Zhang Taixian was startled. He looked around and found that it was coming from the fake key in his hand. He tilted his head in confusion.

"Oh no!" Li Bai cried out, but it was too late.

"The show has begun."

Marco Polo, having walked away, tossed aside his cloak, revealing his true form. He smiled triumphantly as he looked at the fake cube key held by the young man in the Taoist robe, a smirk playing on his lips, and snapped his fingers.

"boom!"

The fake key in the young man's Taoist robe suddenly exploded with a loud bang, and a huge cloud of smoke covered Li Bai and him. At the same time, several other huge explosions also occurred.

"What's going on? What happened?!"

"Fire! Help!"

"Waaah... Daddy, Mommy, where are you? I'm so scared."

"Watch out, the house is going to collapse!"

"Quickly report to the authorities! There have been attacks by thugs!"

Many houses began to collapse, instantly waking the sleeping people and causing chaos as they rushed out of their homes.

Some stood there stunned, some rushed to help others, and some desperately tried to run away while clutching their money...

"Cough cough, I didn't expect it to be a bomb. Damn it, I was tricked." As the dust settled, Li Bai coughed a few times, choked by the smoke.

He wasn't seriously injured because his keen intuition kept him at a distance from Zhang Taixian. In the instant he realized what was happening, he quickly moved away, only getting his clothes dirty.

"Hey, Zhang Taixian, are you alright?"

But thinking of the innocent young man named Zhang Taixian who was at the center of the explosion, Li Bai no longer cared about chasing Marco Polo. He hurriedly walked towards the charred human figure at the center of the explosion.

"Ouch, thankfully my master gave me this extreme cold storm to save my life, but it still hurts so much. I'm almost seriously injured from being blown up."

The charred humanoid figure, which had been lying motionless, suddenly opened its mouth. Zhang Taixian quickly sat up, panting heavily, and said with lingering fear.

"Zhang Taixian, are you alright?" Li Bai breathed a sigh of relief, but still asked with concern.

"it's okay no problem."

Zhang Taixian patted his chest, and the black dust fell away, revealing his close-fitting gold and blue armor. Even at the center of the explosion, it showed no signs of damage, protecting Zhang Taixian perfectly.

“But you…” Li Bai said hesitantly. He didn’t look unharmed at all; his body was charred black and covered in blood. It was a miracle that he hadn’t died from such injuries.

"Don't panic, let me take a couple of doses of medicine." Zhang Taixian waved his hand dismissively, took out a slender medicine bottle containing green liquid from his gold and blue armor, and then gulped it down.

Instantly, Zhang Taixian underwent a tremendous change. His injuries began to heal rapidly at a visible speed, with scabs forming on his wounds, charred marks falling off in chunks, and new, tender, white flesh growing out.

"Ugh~" The tingling sensation of flesh growing made Zhang Taixian gasp uncomfortably.

"See, it's all better now!"

Zhang Taixian, having removed his tattered clothes, produced a Taoist robe as if by magic and put it on, saying proudly with a relaxed smile on his face.

"That's wonderful!" Li Bai said happily, letting out a sigh of relief.

Speaking of which, who exactly is this Zhang Taixian...?

Li Bai pondered in his heart.

"It seems I'll have to use my real skills, or he'll escape again. Come, Master, lend me your power!"

Zhang Taixian shouted, pulling out a piece of paper resembling a contract from his pocket. The paper spontaneously combusted, as if in response, and Zhang Taixian's aura changed, rising steadily.

His jet-black hair turned as white as snow, and golden energy surrounded him. He held a peculiar long-handled weapon. In the blink of an eye, Zhang Taixian had already reached the level of 13.

"No matter how many bombs you have this time, they won't do me much harm." Zhang Taixian looked at himself, full of confidence.

How strange! He just mentioned "Master," I mean the old Master, right? And indeed he is...

A hint of surprise flashed in Li Bai's eyes.

“Then let’s go after Marco Polo now. He’s already headed to the [Gate]. We need to catch him quickly,” Zhang Taixian said seriously, his relaxed demeanor replaced by a serious one.

"Okay, let's go." Li Bai snapped out of his reverie, his eyes narrowing as he spoke.

After saying that, the two quickly ran towards the ancient and mysterious "door".

The two quickly arrived at the [door].

Zhang Taixian spotted Marco Polo before he even opened the door, and immediately said:

"Li Bai, let's all attack together and pin this Marco Polo to the ground and beat him to a pulp!"
