After pitting Ye Bai by sending the Apocalypse to him, Doctor Strange returned to the Temple of New York City.
He didn't take this matter too seriously.
No matter who was the final winner among them, they would not be able to trouble him for a short period of time.
He could take care of his injury with peace of mind.
But shortly after he sat down, a golden portal appeared in front of him.
Then Ye Bai, who looked cold and indifferent, walked out of the portal.
Seeing Dr. Strange sitting on the ground, Ye Bai did not conceal his killing intent.
Doctor Strange was also startled. He didn't expect Ye Bai to appear in front of him.
This showed that he had resolved the Apocalypse and his Legion very quickly.
After realizing this, Dr. Strange's face turned ugly. He realized that he was in trouble.
Obviously, Ye Bai came to settle accounts with him.
So Dr. Strange quickly stood up and looked apprehensively at Ye Bai, who had an unfriendly face.
"Hey, brother, listen to me. This is a complete misunderstanding. I was planning to teleport those guys to the snowy mountains to freeze to death, but I never thought that you were living there."
Dr. Strange kept waving his hands while an apologetic expression appeared on his face.
At first glance, it seemed that he was really unintentional.
Doctor Strange believed that Ye Bai would definitely forgive him if he personally apologized because of his current identity as Supreme Sorcerer.
After all, Ye Bai was not an ordinary person who did not know his identity.
And on Earth, all those who knew his identity, would give him respect.
With his confidence in his identity, Dr. Strange felt that Ye Bai would at best complain to him once or twice, and then he would leave.
But it turned out that he was wrong.
Ye Bai didn't give him any opportunity to explain, and directly rushed towards him at a speed that he couldn't react to.
Then he stretched out his hand, pinched his neck and lifted him up.
Immediately, A series of apologies from Dr. Strange were swallowed back into his stomach.
Ye Bai didn't have a good temper. If anyone schemed against him, he would kill them, regardless of their identity.
Moreover, this Doctor Strange had ulterior motives. He himself wasn't sure whether Ye Bai could fight Apocalypse. If Ye Bai wasn't an opponent of Apocalypse, then he would have died.
So in any case, Ye Bai would not let go of Doctor Strange.
This person didn't even feel guilty. He even thought that he was doing the right thing. Damn it.
Doctor Strange, who was caught by his neck and unable to breathe, also realized the seriousness of the matter.
He saw the resolute killing intent in Ye Bai's eyes.
Evidently, Ye Bai was already intent on killing him because of his previous actions.
When he was about to lose his consciousness, Dr. Strange finally responded.
Previously, when he was facing the Apocalypse, he had never used his killing weapon. The Time Stone shone with green light.
Under Dr. Strange's control, time began to reverse.
It was as if everything was about to return to the time before Ye Bai had grabbed his neck.
But what made Doctor Strange desperate was that the Time Stone's ability to reverse time had no effect at this moment.
It wasn't just Time Stone that could control the timeline. Many powerful beings also had this ability.
Ye Bai also had this ability. He could control the timeline at will, whether it was going to the past or the future.
Moreover, Ye Bai could even do it better than Dr. Strange. He could ignore the time paradox and change what happened in the past, without causing the world to collapse.
Silver Superman could not only jump out of the river of time, he could even ignore the cause and effect.
Was this kind of strength comparable to a mere Time Stone?
As long as Ye Bai wanted, even if Dr. Strange had the Time Stone, he couldn't change time.
The Time Stone was a decoration for Ye Bai, which was also the reason he let the Time Stone hang on Doctor Strange's chest.
It's not that he didn't want to grab it, but it was unnecessary. The ability of Time Stone was a bit too tasteless for him.
However, Dr. Strange had actually used the Time Stone to oppose him. He was simply courting death.
Ye Bai would definitely not let go of this death-seeking guy.
Doctor Strange had also realized the seriousness of the matter. He did not expect that his strongest support, the Time Stone that he relied on the most, would have failed in front of Ye Bai.
He wanted to resist, but Ye Bai's hand was around his neck and he couldn't even move.
He could only become drowsy because of the oxygen deficiency.
Just when Dr. Strange was about to die, a white light appeared behind Ye Bai.
Yao, who was supposed to have left the Earth, came out of the white light.
Looking at Doctor Strange, whose neck was being strangled by Ye Bai, Yao looked a little disappointed.
Was this really her heir? His performance was too bad.
He had already gotten into such a big problem not long after he took up the job.
Yao doubted whether this Doctor Strange could really survive after he had inherited her mantle.
But at this moment, she definitely had to make an appearance. Who asked him to be such a successor?
"Old friend, I've already understood everything. I understand your anger. But if you can let him go, I am willing to pay compensation for this matter."
Yao persuaded Ye Bai. She was hoping that Ye Bai could look at their past friendship and let Dr. Strange go this time.
Ye Bai turned his head and glanced at Yao indifferently.
He had a good relationship with Yao, but it wasn't enough for him to let Doctor Strange go.
This damn long-faced man actually dared to scheme against him, not caring whether he lived or died.
Seeing that Ye Bai was indifferent, Yao didn't hesitate. If she hesitated any longer, Doctor Strange would really die.
"How about the Time Stone in exchange for the life of Doctor Strange."
Yao told him about his compensation, which was considered very sincere.
As for the mission of protecting the Time Stone, that was something that the current Supreme Sorcerer should be concerned about. What did it have to do with her?
Yao also believed that Dr. Strange would not refuse this condition if he was sober.
After listening to Yao's words, Ye Bai's killing intent had indeed weakened a lot.
If he really exchanged the Time Stone for Doctor Strange's life, it wasn't unacceptable.
Although Ye Bai didn't need to use the time gem, he could give it to Hela.
Now that Ye Bai's strength was getting stronger and stronger, Hela couldn't keep up with him anymore.
In such a situation where her potential was completely incomparable, there was nothing wrong with using external resources.
And Hela already had three Infinity Stones in her hands. If she got Time Stone as well, then she would have four.
Maybe one day Hela would collect all six Infinity Stones and become the one who snaps her fingers.
In the end, Ye Bai agreed to Yao's offer and stretched out his hand to pull the Time Stone from Doctor Strange's chest.
Dr. Strange's strength, who had lost his Time Stone, had become even weaker. In the future, he would have almost no chance to shine.
However, this alone was not enough to satisfy Ye Bai.
The Time Stone was only the price for the life of the Strange Doctor, but it did not mean that Ye Bai could not collect any interest.
