Powder

The burly man in front of me, who is over two meters tall and probably weighs over 250 pounds, is named Han Xiaoxuan.

He stared at Li Banfeng for a moment, then said with a smile, "Handsome young man, you really want to buy face cream?" Li Banfeng nodded, "Yes, everyone says your face cream is especially good at controlling oil."

"Your face isn't oily at all," Han Xiaoxuan said, reaching out to touch Li Banfeng's face. Li Banfeng dodged Han Xiaoxuan hand. "Let's talk about the price first."

Han Xiao playfully scolded, "Handsome young man, why are you talking about prices with me? Just name your price, and I'll agree to anything." "So agreeable?" Li Banfeng was pleasantly surprised. "Then let's find a place to talk in detail."

"Trying to take me out on our first meeting?" Han Xiaoxuan scoffed. "Where do you think you're taking me? Can't we go here?" Li Banfeng looked around. "This isn't convenient, is it?"

"I have a sofa here, what's inconvenient about it?" Han Xiaoxuan Powder Puff in her hand, and the powder in the powder box flew out with a puff, making the whole room look gray. Li Banfeng, who was sitting across the table, was gone. Han Xiaoxuan covered her mouth and laughed, "Where did you go? Didn't you just ask me out? Why are you shy now?" Han Xiaoxuan held the Powder Puff in her palm and slowly pushed open the door.

His actions were very deceptive. A ball of incense powder might seem harmless, but if enough powder was applied to the body, it could kill a mid-level Dark Energy User within seconds.

Han Xiaoxuan stood at the door, pinched Powder Puff, and the entire corridor was filled with powder dust.

Using the dust as a means of sensing the movement around her, Han Xiaoxuan was unable to detect Li Banfeng in the corridor.

"Young man, you just ran away like that? That's really hurting people's feelings. You're a Travel Cultivator, right? Wanderers don't have your skills."

"Is your cultivation inherited from your family or are you from Pro State? With such great skills, why don't you find a place to live a peaceful life instead of coming here to cause trouble?" With each sentence, Han Xiaoxuan would spray a cloud of powder from her mouth. When the powder was at its thickest, it was almost impossible to see anyone in the corridor.

The thicker the dust became, the bolder Han Xiaoxuan grew. He walked towards the end of the corridor, and in the stairwell, he could vaguely hear Li Banfeng's voice. When he reached the vicinity of the stairwell, a sudden gust of wind blew, quickly dispersing the dust.

The dust concentration decreased, and Han Xiaoxuan immediately became vigilant, no longer approaching the stairwell. In the dead of winter, with all the corridor windows closed, where was the wind coming from?

"Handsome young man, you just used the Intent Travels a Thousand Mountains, didn't you? To summon such a strong wind, you're quite skilled!"

Han Xiao deduced Li Banfeng's technique: Li Banfeng had brought the raging winds he encountered while Riding the Wind and Driving the Clouds to the corridor.

It's understandable that the Travel Cultivator would Intent Travels a Thousand Mountains, but Han Xiaoxuan didn't expect the technique to be so powerful. The dust that fell from the Powder Puff couldn't stay for a moment and was blown to the corner of the corridor.

The wind subsided, Intent Travels a Thousand Mountains had exhausted too much energy; Li Banfeng couldn't hold on for much longer.

Han Xiaoxuan was a little scared. She didn't know what other tricks Li Banfeng was up to. She wanted to use the powder to test him, but then she heard two people talking in the stairwell. "Go on, fight him!"

"I'm not going, you go first."

"His powder is poisonous, it's not appropriate for me to go."

"Knowing it's poisonous, you still made me go. What do you take me for?" "You're not afraid of poison, so why are you afraid to go?"

Who is he talking to?

When did two people arrive?

Han Xiaoxuan was very anxious. The opponent came too suddenly, and he had no information or preparation.

Li Banfeng was also very anxious. He didn't know much about Han Xiaoxuan, and he wanted to use the shadow to test her, but the shadow refused to come out.

Since visiting Gourd Village, Shadow has had more and more ideas.

After discussing for a long time, the matter was settled, and Shadow finally appeared, standing in front of Han Xiaoxuan, and slowly said, "Don't use powder anymore, you've burned me black." Burned black?

What is this?

He looks a lot like that person from before, but he's really dark-skinned.

"Little Black Bro, this isn't from my burn. Your skin is neglected and needs whitening." Using the light from the corridor window, Han Xiaoxuan turned the mirror on her powder compact and projected a beam of light at the shadow.

Shadow, used to being hacked and chopped, and even bombed in Gourd Village, didn't take this beam of light seriously at all. He charged straight at Han Xiaoxuan's face, the reflection from the mirror piercing through her chest, and Shadow almost fell to the ground.

The shadow had a hole burned in its chest, allowing a view from one side to the other.

The light swept across his chest and ribs, and the shadow's upper body was almost chopped off.

The beam of light reflected from the mirror could cause some harm to a person, but unexpectedly, the harm was so severe to the shadow. The shadow's upper body swayed, and his lower body ran wildly, desperately shouting to Li Banfeng, "Come out quickly, I can't stop this." Li Banfeng emerged from the wall, grabbed Han Xiaoxuan from behind, and prepared to drag her into the Portable Abode.

That's strange. I estimated he weighed 250 pounds just now, but now when I hold him in my hand, he only seems to weigh 20 or 30 pounds. How could someone of his build weigh only 20 or 30 pounds?

Is this an illusion? (Likely referring to a specific plant or plant)

Han Xiaoxuan tossed her hair, and the powder flew towards Li Banfeng's cheek.

Li Banfeng the dust, while Han Xiaoxuan, clutching a pink ball in her hand, hit him directly!

This time the blow was brutal. Li Banfeng, along with the pink dumpling, crashed into the wall, creating a hole in the office building wall before flying downstairs. Han Xiaoxuan's fingertips trembled, and the pink dumpling exploded, spraying Li Banfeng with highly toxic powder.

Li Banfeng, with his Benevolent Dwelling Heart and honest nature, forcefully withstood this wave. Han Xiaoxuan wanted to pursue, but Shadow seized the opportunity to get close and unleashed the Trample Ten Thousand Rivers technique. Scale!

With one kick, a muffled thud, and Han Xiaoxuan exploded. She exploded just like that?

Is Han Xiaoxuan really that fragile?

Li Banfeng flew up to the third floor and squeezed into the wall through the hole he had created. Shadow waved to Li Banfeng, telling him to leave the corridor quickly, as it was too dusty.

Li Banfeng quickly disappeared into the wall, leaving only his shadow in the corridor. Han Xiaoxuan was gone, without even a trace. He's not dead?

Where did they run off to? A shadow stood guard in the corridor.

Li Banfeng used his Unimpeded Travel skills to shuttle between the offices of various departments. Finance, R&D, human resources, logistics—everyone was busy with their work. Despite the commotion in the corridor and the fact that a hole was knocked in the building, no one seemed to care.

These people were clearly not human, Li Banfeng realized. They were likely some kind of puppet, puppets with a significant gap in intelligence. The reason he said there was a significant gap was because each department reacted to Li Banfeng in slightly different ways.

In the finance department, both the accountants and cashiers completely ignored Li Banfeng's presence. Even after overcoming his tendency to be easily overlooked, no one spoke to him. However, in the human resources department, a group of people scrutinized Li Banfeng, chattering incessantly.

Which department are you from?

"Why isn't your attendance record showing up?" "Did you sign the leave slip?"

The logistics staff were noticeably more welcoming; someone invited him to sit down, and another poured him a glass of water. "Please have a seat for a while; our General Manager Han will be here shortly."

Are these illusions or real people? Where is the sales department?

Li Banfeng used the Hundred Flavors Exquisite to smell the fragrance; he detected a powdery scent. This scent was very peculiar, exactly the same as Han Xiaoxuan's fragrance. Where was the scent coming from? Was it from the woman who had poured him water earlier?

The woman had a powdery scent, but it didn't seem too strong.

Li Banfeng looked towards the logistics manager's private office, where the smell of powder was very strong.

He rushed into the office, only to find the tall and strong Han Xiaoxuan sitting behind her desk with her back to the window, holding a powder box. She stood up and said, "Handsome boy, I hid here, and you still found me!"

The powder compact changed angle, and the reflected light spot rapidly approached Li Banfeng. Li Banfeng dodged the light spot, his Tang Blade flashed, and he decapitated Han Xiaoxuan in one swift motion. Bang!

Han Xiaoxuan has exploded again.

Dust flew everywhere, but no remains were left.

To avoid the dust, Li Banfeng immediately rushed out of the office.

The other members of the logistics department were stunned to see the department manager's office explode. This kind of thing didn't happen often, and they didn't know how to handle it.

An older employee realized the seriousness of the problem and quickly shouted, "Quickly clean up the dust! It's so dirty, it's unacceptable!" Li Banfeng walked back and forth in the office building, and not long after, he encountered Han Xiaoxuan in the restroom.

"Handsome boy, can you stop being so clingy?" Han Xiaoxuan rolled out a pink dumpling. "You can't hurt me when you hit me, but if I hit you, you might not be able to take it!" Dust filled the office building. Chen Changrui checked the time and ordered, "Prepare for battle."

This was Li Banfeng's tactical arrangement: as long as the battle in the office building lasted more than five minutes, regardless of the outcome, the next step of the plan would be immediately followed.

Huajia guarded all the exits, and Tangyuan Yuan told everyone to take their positions. Neither reconnaissance personnel nor combat personnel were allowed to enter the scene at this moment, because the first batch of troops in this operation were drones.

The reconnaissance department dispatched sixty drones to initiate the operation.

Upon hearing the drone, the factory workers immediately rushed out of the workshops and warehouses. They weren't fleeing for their lives; they were fighting.

Observing the details of the group's movements, Chen Changrui quickly deduced. "These are puppets."

His deduction was correct. Like most of the members in the office building, the people who came out of the workshop were not people, nor were they some kind of machine equipment. They were puppets constructed by magic.

They have their own fixed combat procedures. Upon seeing drones in the sky, the puppets on the ground explode one after another, kicking up a thick cloud of incense powder. This is the only response these puppets can make; no matter where the enemy comes from, their only tactic is self-destruction.

Amid the explosion, Li Banfeng was once again thrown out of the office building, only to be knocked out by Han Xiaoxuan.

This battle left Li Banfeng somewhat helpless. He had defeated Han Xiaoxuan dozens of times, but Han Xiaoxuan always managed to revive on the spot. Her combat power was only slightly weakened, but the impact was not serious.

Floating in mid-air, Li Banfeng clearly saw what was happening in the workshop. The self-destructing puppet seemed incredibly foolish, but Li Banfeng felt fortunate.

If the first to rush in were Public Security Team or members of the reconnaissance department, the outcome would have been different; no matter how many rushed in, they would all perish in the dust. The drones, unaffected by the dust, launched the first attack on the material warehouse.

The incendiary bombs fell, Fierce Flame erupted, and all the raw materials that had not yet entered the processing stage were destroyed.

The drones quickly moved into the second phase of the operation plan, entering the production workshop where cosmetics were being manufactured. This was the primary target of the second phase.

The workshop quickly caught fire amidst the explosions of incendiary bombs, the puppets continued to explode, dust increased, visibility in the factory area decreased, and the video footage transmitted by the drones was severely affected.

However, this does not prevent the drones from continuing to execute operational plans. The third phase objective is the finished goods warehouse.

The factory's layout is somewhat unusual; the finished product warehouse, material warehouse, and production workshop are not in the same yard and are quite far apart. As the drone approached the finished product warehouse, preparing to drop its bombs, a group of people rushed out of the warehouse and ran wildly around the yard.

Because the finished product warehouse is located in the main factory area, the video quality from the drone is acceptable. Judging from the footage, the personnel are roughly equal in gender, wearing uniform suits with obvious company logos, and are likely sales staff.

Why do sales staff work in the warehouse?

The salespeople reacted very differently from the puppets they had encountered before. They had no intention of fighting; they only wanted to escape, to escape at all costs. But the warehouse walls were high, and all the exits were blocked, so they could only wander around in the yard.

Are they human beings, or puppets?

No one dared to draw a conclusion easily. If they were real people, Public Security Team should be sent in immediately to guide and evacuate them. But if they were puppets in disguise, sending in Public Security Team would be tantamount to sending them to their deaths.

Whether to attack the finished goods warehouse is still pending orders from Chen Changrui, who is still observing the situation.

The Huajia warned, "Director Chen, time is running out. The dust from the production workshop is about to drift into the warehouse." The dust is highly toxic, and if it gets into the warehouse, all these sales staff will die.

But the premise is that they are actually human beings, and not a trap to lure Public Security Team.

The newly Public Security Team, Ji Shoulin, suggested. "Notify Director Li to immediately evacuate the scene. After Director Li leaves, immediately destroy the warehouse and then cover it up."

"Putting on the cover" means activating the sealed protective cover, which is the best way to control dust. However, the cover is very fragile, and even a slight impact from inside can damage it. Therefore, all threats in the factory area must be addressed before putting on the cover.

Tangyuan looked at Ji Shoulin and asked, "Aren't you going to care about the lives of those salespeople?"

Ji Shoulin's expression was icy. "I think they are most likely not human, but like other places, products created by dark powers."

Tangyuan disagreed. "They are most likely real people. Sales staff are a company's external communication arm. If they use puppets, they can't communicate normally with the outside world, so they have to hire people to be in charge of sales."

This is also why the sales staff work in the warehouse; the company doesn't want them to have too much contact with other puppets. Ji Shoulin shook his head and said, "We can't let the Public Security Team take risks because of your own speculation."

In fact, he knew in his heart that Tangyuan's guess was probably correct, and that these sales staff were likely human.

However, Ji Shoulin's approach was the safest. His method avoided casualties among the Dark Star Bureau members and also mitigated the risk of dust spreading. Tangyuan shouted, "I'll go evacuate these people. I can go alone."

Ji Shoulin frowned and said, "This isn't about who goes, nor is it the time for you to show off!" Tangyuan gritted her teeth and remained silent.

Chen Changrui was still hesitating when a figure suddenly appeared on the drone's screen. This figure smashed open the warehouse's iron door and was evacuating the sales staff.

"It's Chuunibyou!" Tangyuan recognized the figure.

Chuunibyou rushed into the warehouse yard alone and shouted at the sales staff, "Don't panic, there's an exit here! Leave the factory immediately and don't go to other areas!" The sales staff all crowded at the exit, Chuunibyou, relying on his advantage as a fighter, tried his best to maintain order and speed up the evacuation.

Boom!

A loud crash came from the office building, and a cloud of fragrant dust billowed out of the windows, mixing with the dust above the workshop and spreading throughout the factory area. Han Xiaoxuan rolled out a huge ball of dust and smashed it, causing the floor between the second and third floors to collapse.

Huajia reminded Chen Changrui: "There is a risk that the dust will spread and worsen."

Huajia is one of the best cultivators in the Dark Star Bureau, second only to Chen Changrui. His judgment of the trend is correct. If these highly toxic dusts spread out of control, they will cause disaster to the surrounding streets.

Ji Shoulin shouted into the walkie-talkie, "Chuunibyou, get out of here immediately!"

Chen Changrui ordered that the finished goods warehouse be destroyed in one minute, the fire extinguished in two minutes, and the fire covered in three minutes. Chuunibyou received the orders and was still making a final effort to evacuate the sales staff.

Finally, one person remained, moving somewhat sluggishly. The Chuunibyou delusions of grandeur) hoisted this person onto his shoulder and ran towards the door. A whiff of incense powder filled the air, Chuunibyou understood why the person was so slow.

He was poisoned, Chuunibyou himself also showed signs of poisoning.

His legs grew weaker and weaker, his vision worsened, Chuunibyou staggered out. Boom! A deafening explosion followed as the drone dropped incendiary bombs on the warehouse.

The sweltering heatwave hit the Chuunibyou (Chuunibyou with delusions of grandeur), bringing him back to his senses from the brink of fainting. Run! We can get out of there!

Chuunibyou gritted his teeth, mustered all his strength, and rushed out of the factory.

Tangyuan immediately arranged for emergency medical personnel to catch Chuunibyou and the last salesperson. Ji Shoulin ordered the burners to take their positions and prepare to extinguish the fire.

Isn't a burner for starting fires? Why was it changed to extinguish fires?

In environments where drones can be used normally, incendiary bombs are the main arsonists, and the burners' primary task is to control the fire using their own skills and extinguish it within a specified time.

Two minutes passed, enough time for the incendiary bombs to clear the area, and the incendiary crew began extinguishing the fire. Chen Changrui contacted Li Banfeng: "Director Li, we're preparing to put the cover on."

"Press it!" Li Banfeng replied into the walkie-talkie on his sleeve. Tangyuan asked in surprise, "Isn't Director Li coming out?"

Chen Changrui looked grave. Chuunibyou had only taken a small sip of the incense powder and was already unconscious. How much longer could Li Banfeng hold on?

Li Banfeng was also nearing his limit. His Intent Travels a Thousand Mountains technique had exceeded its limit and he could no longer use it. He relied on House Cultivator strong physique to fight against the highly toxic dust.

The crucial problem now is that the entire office building reeks of face powder, and Li Banfeng, despite his Hundred Flavors Exquisite skills, is unable to locate Han Xiaoxuan. Outside the factory, the fire has been extinguished, and a drone with a diameter of over two meters hovers above the factory, propelled by its propellers.

Chen Changrui again sought Li Banfeng's opinion: "Director Li, we have prepared the isolation shields. Please give instructions on when to activate them!" "Activate them immediately!" Li Banfeng ordered the dust to be contained immediately; otherwise, the dust would truly spread outside the factory.

But Li Banfeng can't go out yet. As long as Han Xiaoxuan is alive, she can easily destroy the protective shield from inside. The drone opened its lower hatch, and a clump of yellowish-green gelatinous substance poured out.

The gelatinous substance expanded on its own in mid-air, transforming from a ball with a diameter of one meter into a pancake with a diameter of over two hundred meters.

The center of the pancake was suspended in mid-air by a drone, while the edges of the pancake dropped and continued to extend downwards until they reached the ground, turning into a covered bowl that was placed over the entire factory.

This is the protective shield; from a distance, it looks like a large, yellowish-green soap bubble. Li Banfeng was also puzzled; why did it have to be yellowish-green?

The color is quite intense; you can't see each other inside or outside the protective shield.

The gloves popped out of his pocket, and he sniffed them: "Honey, does it smell fishy?" "Yes," Li Banfeng nodded, "This fishy smell is somewhat familiar."

"Master, this must be a method of Phlegm Cultivator." "Impossible..." Li Banfeng's face turned pale. "There's no mistake, it's the smell of phlegm!"

The glove guess was correct; the two-meter-diameter drone was a special piece of equipment modified from Phlegm Cultivator artifact, and the yellowish-green gelatinous substance was a lump of thick phlegm.

After being compressed and stretched, the thick phlegm first turned into a phlegm cake, and then formed a huge bubble, trapping the dust and the factory underneath. Because the phlegm is very sticky, the dust will not disperse and will be largely absorbed by the phlegm.

The walkie-talkie crackled again. "Director Li, we're preparing for grouting." Li Banfeng shuddered. "Grouting? What do you mean?"

Chen Changrui came up with a suitable explanation. "It's about injecting a gel-like substance from the top of the protective shield to completely absorb the dust."

Li Banfeng imagined the scene during grouting and asked Chen Changrui, "Is this grout and this protective cover both part of the Phlegm Cultivator technique?" Chen Changrui paused for a moment before replying, "Director Li, the signal isn't very good from your location; I didn't hear you clearly!"

It really is!

Li Banfeng shouted, "Don't start grouting yet! Wait for my order!"

"Yes!" Chen Changrui breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the protective shield wasn't damaged, the dust wouldn't escape. The rest was up to Director Li's orders. Li Banfeng was still searching for Han Xiaoxuan when he reached the warehouse area and suddenly saw a burly man emerge from the dust, appearing on the top floor of the office building. He held up a powder box, trying to use the reflection in the mirror to make a hole in the protective shield.

Li Banfeng flew up to the rooftop and kicked Han Xiaoxuan to the ground.

"Handsome boy, I'm not in the mood to play with you right now. Look closely, this is a huge wad of phlegm. We're going to drown here!" Han Xiaocha adjusted the angle of the powder box, reflecting the light onto Li Banfeng.

Li Banfeng easily dodged, but his glove couldn't avoid the fire and got a hole burned in it.

Li Banfeng used his Trample Ten Thousand Rivers, stirring up a cloud of dust that blocked the mirror's reflection and saved the gloves. Fortunately, the light inside the protective shield wasn't strong, and the hole wasn't large, only about the size of a coin. "How could I be so careless!" Li Banfeng checked the gloves, Han Xiaoxuan disappeared again.

Gloves gasped and said, "It's nothing serious, sir. That powder box must be his Genzi. I made a mark on it! He can't escape this time!" Li Banfeng had already figured out that the powder box was an external device. As long as the external device was removed, they could deal with this indestructible Han Xiaoxuan.

The glove sensed for a moment. Then it pointed downwards. "He's on the third floor."

Li Banfeng ran through the floorboards and chased Han Xiaoxuan all the way to the third floor, where he knocked her to the ground.

Han Xiaoxuan got up, still wanting to run away, but found a halo around her feet. "What is this? Did you bring the Dark Star Bureau's boundary switch? Did I originally have a boundary here?" The Dark Star Bureau does have boundary switches.

The Dark Star Bureau has many other good things.

Li Banfeng laughed and said, "Yes, this is the boundary. Let's see where you can run to now!"

"Handsome boy, if you can't bear to part with me, just say so. What's the use of trapping me with boundaries? You can only trap my body, you can't trap my heart!" With a soft "poof," Han Xiaoxuan turned into a cloud of dust.

Li Banfeng wasn't worried. Even if he turned to dust, he wouldn't cross the boundary. Before the boundaries of the House Cultivator, even dust would be burned to ashes. But to Li Banfeng's surprise, Han Xiaoxuan appeared at the end of the corridor.

He crossed the line! How did he do that?

Li Banfeng was extremely surprised, but he saw Han Xiaoxuan hesitate for a long time at the end of the corridor, and did not run away.

Han Xiaoxuan wanted to get away; he just didn't want to get entangled with Li Banfeng, but he wasn't afraid to fight Li Banfeng.

"Hey handsome, give me back my powder compact! We can talk about anything else, but don't joke around with me about this!" He rolled his face into a ball and charged towards Li Banfeng. Gloves laughed, "You can run away, but you can't hide. Boss, his powder compact won't leave your territory. I found it."

The gloves were handed to Li Banfeng, Li Banfeng waved to Han Xiaoxuan, "Come on, take it!"

Han Xiaoxuan gritted his teeth and rushed towards the boundary line. The instant he crossed it, he crumbled into ashes. Without external equipment, he was completely useless?

Having finally dealt with Han Xiaoxuan, Li Banfeng planned to clean up the remaining puppets as well, then have Chen Changrui perform the grouting, and the battle would be over. Just as he was about to go downstairs to find the puppets, he suddenly sensed danger behind him.

Looking back, Han Xiaoxuan rushed up from behind again. "I'll say it again, give me back the powder box right now, or I'll make you wish you were dead!" He had just turned to ashes, and the ashes on the ground were still there. How could he still be alive?

"Give me back my powder compact!" Han Xiaoxuan threw a pink dumpling at him and rushed forward to grab it. Li Banfeng laughed, "Why should I give it back to you?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Banfeng vanished, his gaze locking onto Han Xiaoxuan was Ride a Horse and Admire Flowers obliterated. Han Xiaoxuan, just like before, was covered in dust, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, she would regenerate immediately.

The glove suggested, "Boss, let's get away from here. I reckon as long as this powder box is still near him, he can resurrect on the spot." Li Banfeng took the powder box and flew from the window to the first floor.

Han Xiaoxuan stood up from the marble floor on the first floor and chased after Li Banfeng relentlessly. "Handsome boy, you've really disappointed me. You've ruined my sincere feelings."

Li Banfeng was somewhat surprised; he hadn't expected Han Xiaoxuan to be able to catch up with him.

The key point is that Han Xiaoxuan's behavior is abnormal. According to past experience, once people are away from external devices, Inner State will quickly lose their mobility. Han Xiaoxuan seems to be unaffected.

Li Banfeng continued running frantically with the powder box in hand. When he reached the ruins of the workshop, Han Xiaoxuan emerged from the wrecked equipment, picked up a clump of powder, and threw it at Li Banfeng: "I told you, if you don't give me back my powder box, I'll make you wish you were dead!"

Li Banfeng didn't move his lower body, but twisted his upper body to dodge the pink dumpling. To be fair, the dance moves he learned from Du Wenming's textbook were quite effective. However, Li Banfeng also noticed a problem: compared to before, Han Xiaoxuan's body was much weaker.

What exactly caused it to be weakened?

Li Banfeng looked around and saw only dust filling the air and clinging to the inner walls of the protective shield.

Han Xiaoxuan, carrying a pink dumpling, tried to snatch the powder box again. Li Banfeng grabbed the powder box and ran to the electrical room, where Han Xiaoxuan then crawled out of the electrical cabinet.

Li Banfeng flew to the edge of the protective shield, while Han Xiaoxuan watched from a distance without approaching.

He seemed somewhat afraid of the protective shield.

But the fact that he can still move freely proves that the powder box is not far enough away from him.

Li Banfeng flew directly from the edge of the protective shield to the office building, where Han Xiaoxuan then appeared.

This led Li Banfeng to a bold conjecture: could Han Xiaoxuan move instantly through the dust?

If that's the case, running will be futile.

The powder box needs to be delivered to a place where Han Xiaoxuan can't catch up.

Li Banfeng slipped into Han Xiaoxuan's office Unimpeded Travel, opened the door to the Portable Abode room, and threw the powder box inside.

The instant he closed the door of his Portable Abode, Li Banfeng heard a muffled thud outside the office door.

Thump!

Li Banfeng opened the office door and saw Han Xiaocha lying motionless on the floor.

He finally showed what it's like for an Inner State to lose their external device.

Li Banfeng lifted him up from the ground. His body was heavier than before, now weighing at least 200 pounds.

What caused this?

Li Banfeng didn't rush to send Han Xiaoxuan back to Portable Abode. He threw Han Xiaoxuan on the ground and observed her changes.

A large amount of dust swirled around Han Xiaoxuan, and much of the white dust fell onto Han Xiaoxuan body, blurring her colors and outlines, gradually merging with Han Xiaoxuan.

The visibility around them increased, and all the dust in the air was absorbed into Han Xiaocha's body.

Bang! Bang!

Explosions came one after another from nearby offices, and all the puppets that Han Xiaoxuan had created in the entire building exploded.

The dust from the explosion gathered into a river, flowing continuously towards Han Xiaochao.

Li Banfeng finally understood the true nature of Han Xiaoxuan's life.

No wonder he was so afraid of the protective shield.

No wonder Li Banfeng couldn't shake him off no matter where he went.

Because he was everywhere in the factory.

He doesn't just move through the dust; he is the dust.

Apart from the sales staff, everyone in this factory was created by Han Xiaoxuan, created with his own body.
