New York, atop a rooftop.

Tony Stark frowned and asked seriously, "So, Luo Bai, you don't know where exactly you sent Obadiah either?!"

Luo Bai shook his head and replied somewhat helplessly, "I don't know."

Hearing that even he was not sure, Tony Stark could not help feeling worried.

After all, Obadiah looked insane now. It would be bad if he caused trouble somewhere in New York.

Thinking of that, Tony Stark hurriedly said, "JARVIS, search the entire city for Obadiah's location. See if you can find him."

JARVIS, an artificial intelligence butler.

It was a program Tony Stark had installed into the Iron Man armor. It possessed many functions, including tracking.

After receiving the command, JARVIS immediately began a citywide search. It soon replied, "I'm sorry, Mr. Stark. Obadiah's location was not found within New York City."

Tony Stark could not help remarking, "Looks like he's already out of New York. Did you send him that far away?"

Luo Bai shrugged and answered calmly, "Well... who knows?"

Tony Stark had still been worried before.

After learning that Obadiah was no longer in New York, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"He only wanted to take over Stark Industries. Now that he's out of New York, things should be peaceful for quite a while. Thank you for saving me again." Slumped on the ground, Tony Stark thanked him with exhaustion written across his face.

That fight had truly worn him out.

He had thought that creating Mark 3 already made him impressive, but he had never expected Obadiah to create armor even stronger than his. It left him somewhat dissatisfied.

"The person you sent away just now was called Obadiah. He was my father's business partner. He came looking for me at the party before. You should have seen him, right?" Tony Stark said.

"Yeah, I saw him. What about it?!" Luo Bai asked.

Tony Stark explained angrily, "I told you all at the party that he opposed me shutting down the weapons division. But I never expected him to secretly research Iron Man armor and even create an upgraded version specifically to counter mine."

However, when Iron Man armor was mentioned, the anger on Tony Stark's face disappeared, replaced by pride and excitement.

"A lot happened while you were gone. For example, what I'm wearing is the latest Mark 3 I developed. Isn't it much cooler than the one I built in the cave?!" Tony Stark boasted.

He even deliberately stood up and showed Luo Bai Mark 3's entire exterior.

Seeing him put so much effort into showing it off, Luo Bai naturally played along.

"It does look much more advanced." Luo Bai nodded in praise.

Pleased by the compliment, Tony Stark replied smugly, "Naturally~~~ I didn't sleep for days just to make Mark 3. Actually, Mark 3 has plenty of other functions. Want to see them~?"

He seemed intent on giving Luo Bai a full demonstration of Mark 3's capabilities.

But Luo Bai was a transmigrator.

He had even seen the nano armor Tony Stark would create in the future, let alone Mark 3?!

Considering that he still needed to learn magic and improve his strength as soon as possible, Luo Bai quickly cut him off. "It's too late today. I have something to do, so I'll head back first. We can talk about this another day."

Without waiting for Tony Stark to react, he raised his hand and opened a portal.

Since he had successfully opened portals twice before, Luo Bai had become much more proficient.

This time, the destination was correct. It led straight to his villa.

Satisfied to see that the location was right, Luo Bai nodded and waved goodbye. "Bye, Tony~"

As the portal closed, Tony Stark was left alone on the rooftop, standing in the wind in a daze.

After who knew how long, Tony Stark finally could not help sighing, "Is this the power of a sorcerer?!"

Honestly.

Although he had already seen Luo Bai open a portal and send Obadiah away earlier, seeing it again still shocked him.

This magic was way too useful!

He had originally thought that building Iron Man armor capable of flying and firing missiles was already incredible.

But... why did Luo Bai's magic look cooler than his armor?

In an instant, Tony Stark no longer found Mark 3 appealing.

"There's actually magic in this world?! And sorcerers?!"

"Oh my God! This is insane!"

"No, I have to upgrade the armor!"

While Tony Stark was still standing there in amazement, Luo Bai had already returned to his villa and begun studying magic.

He had only learned Teleportation Magic not long ago.

But after that "battle," Luo Bai unexpectedly discovered that he had become extremely familiar with Teleportation Magic. He tried it several times in a row without making a single mistake.

That proved he had completely mastered Teleportation Magic.

It made him somewhat excited.

No wonder fighting was the best way to improve one's strength.

He had practiced at home for so long before barely learning Teleportation Magic, yet after experiencing danger, he had mastered it instantly.

At first, Luo Bai had been worried.

After all, if he truly had a "good luck" cheat, then he should not have wandered into danger just now.

He had only studied basic magic for a few days. With that level of strength, there was no way he should have been able to defeat Obadiah wearing the Iron Monger.

Yet not only had he left unscathed, he had even become stronger.

So how had he wandered into "danger" just now? The Goddess of Luck had clearly arranged some practical combat training for him!

And it was not just this one time.

Luo Bai realized that every so-called "danger" he encountered had not actually been dangerous.

Although he had arrived in a terrorist "headquarters" right after transmigrating, he had met Tony Stark, a top-tier billionaire, because of it.

He could live in such a large villa now thanks in no small part to Tony Stark's help.

"No wonder I learn magic so quickly. You could practically call me exceptionally gifted. Turns out the Goddess of Luck has been helping me," Luo Bai muttered.

After all, plenty of people possessed magical talent, but to possess top-tier magical talent... luck was necessary too.

The more Luo Bai thought about it, the more he felt he could not let down the Goddess of Luck's favor. He immediately prepared to finish learning the Supreme Compendium as soon as possible.

Unexpectedly, the doorbell rang at that moment, forcing Luo Bai to get up and answer it.

The moment he opened the door, he saw a young man in monk's robes standing outside his home.

"Hello, is this Luo Bai's home?!" the young man asked with a smile.

"Who are you?!" Luo Bai asked.

"My name is Mordo," the young man introduced himself.

Luo Bai immediately understood.

No wonder he had looked so familiar. It really was Mordo.

But why had he come looking for him?! Where was Gu Yi?!

Curious, Luo Bai asked, "I'm Luo Bai. What did you come to see me about?!"

Mordo said nothing, merely holding out an item.

It was Kamar-Taj's magical artifact—the Sling Ring.
