In the next moment, the black dragon uttered a roar, then this giant winding snake in the sky dove straight down to the ground at breakneck speed!

"We've been discovered!" General jumped to his feet and shouted, "Run!"

Yu Hao wanted to rush into the palace, but General caught hold of him.

"Don't be so hasty!"

Yu Hao said, "But we're so close!"

Their destination was right in front of them yet they had to give up on it. Yu Hao sighed angrily, then rushed into the market with General. But within the blink of an eye, everything between heaven and earth appeared to have changed: dark clouds rolled across the skies, thunderstorms erupted one after another, and streaks of lightning crackled around the black dragon as it spewed out a violent black torrent which swept across the entire street!

The houses that lined the street were submerged under the flood one by one and the whole city turned into a vast expanse of water; only the roofs in this huge city remained to be seen above the waters.

"Damn it my dream is going to be ruined!" Yu Hao shouted.

General led him into a street filled with NPCs, then answered with a shout, "It'll be restored! As long as you regain control of this world!"

The repressed dreamscape had turned into a nightmare within an instant: endless cries of sorrow, shouts and curses lingered on in one's ears. Wherever the black flood passed, countless houses would crumble immediately. The NPCs on the street emitted black gas, and one after another, they began to attack Yu Hao and General!

"Where do we run to?" Yu Hao said.

General pushed aside the NPC that had rushed towards them, then said to Yu Hao, "Don't you have a single friend in the real world?!"

"No!" Yu Hao said unhappily.

General picked Yu Hao up and carried him bridal style, then rushed into a small alley. The black dragon swooped upon them from behind, the torrent gushed into the alley and pushed the two onto the ground.

"Never mind." General jumped up, unsheathed the broad sword on his back and turned around to guard the alley. He murmured, "If you don't have any then so be it, it doesn't matter because you still have me. Go to your safe haven! Hurry!"

Yu Hao said, "We'll go together! I can't leave you behind!"

Yu Hao dragged General along by his wrist and they bolted through the alley. Behind them came the angry roar of the black dragon; houses around them were collapsing rapidly one after the other. Yu Hao ran at the fore as he rushed towards the abandoned temple and prayed incessantly that it must definitely be useful!

General waded through the waters behind him. Yu Hao shouted, "General!"

General didn't reply, he only shouted back, "Just run!"

The temple was within arm's reach, it looked even more dilapidated up close. Yu Hao stopped running and shot it a skeptical look.

"Believe in yourself!" General rushed to his back as he shouted. He wrapped one arm around Yu Hao's waist and the two of them rushed to the front of the temple, then threw themselves forward simultaneously.

And at the same time, the black dragon summoned a huge tsunami that hovered overhead as it threatened to crush them.

Yu Hao looked up at the black dragon in horror while General held him in his arms. The two of them looked up at the same time, and at that moment, a miracle occurred.

The tsunami controlled by the black dragon slammed down with a loud boom, but a bright light suddenly flashed within the temple and an invisible barrier blocked this flood from gushing into the dilapidated temple!
