While in Hollywood, I used Taoist magic to quell American terrorism.

Chris's expression froze completely.

Then, his face turned to one of utter shock.

He turned to Cao Kun: "Damn, she knows you exist!!"

Cao Kun, however, remained calm and unsurprised.

In the movie, the succubus is able to control home appliances, the internet, and even cell phones.

Just now, Cao Kun forcibly pulled Chris back.

It's perfectly normal for the succubus to use her powers to check what's going on with Chris.

Then, the discovery of Cao Kun's existence was a logical next step.

Cao Kun: "Let me do it."

Chris moved aside.

Cao Kun sat down and typed, "I'm right here, come on over."

Succubus: "You're in such a hurry. We've only just met. No, to be precise, we haven't even met yet."

We should proceed step by step and get to know each other first.

Cao Kun: "There's no need. I know you very well."

The succubus seemed to be laughing: "Really? Then tell me, what kind of person am I?"

Cao Kun: "You... are not human."

The succubus remained silent.

I haven't replied to your messages in a long time.

After a moment, she replied, "I'll be very sad if you say that. [Image]"

In the photo, there is a stunningly beautiful woman with tears streaming down her face; she looks so pitiful.

Chris's eyes froze when he saw the photo.

After a good ten seconds, he suddenly turned his head, forcing himself not to look at the photo.

But he turned his head back several times, appearing to be struggling.

Cao Kun: "Once you see my powerful vitality, you won't be sad anymore."

Seemingly attracted by the "powerful vitality," the succubus's response speed suddenly increased: "Your vitality is really that powerful?"

Cao Kun: "Of course, enough to penetrate the bullseye."

The succubus replied even faster: "Is it really that strong? How can you prove it?"

Cao Kun: "Only you can verify this yourself."

Succubus: "I will. How about you show me your picture first? You know what I want to see. Of course, I'll let you see mine too."

Cao Kun: "I will not post any photos online. If you want to see them, come find me in real life."

Succubus: "You really know how to whet people's appetites, but I like it."

Chris felt uneasy watching Cao Kun and the succubus chatter away, seemingly getting along very well.

It feels like someone has stolen my partner.

He wanted to leave this place and get away from it all.

But I'm also a little reluctant to let go.

They could only watch helplessly as Cao Kun continued chatting with the succubus.

Moreover, the succubus behaves differently when facing Cao Kun than when facing him.

When facing him, the succubus takes the lead.

But now, the succubus seems to be trying to curry favor with Cao Kun.

The rhythm was completely under Cao Kun's control.

He suddenly felt as if someone had stood up and pedaled the bicycle that he was reluctant to ride.

Chris was conflicted and felt helpless.

After an unknown amount of time, Cao Kun finally ended his chat with the succubus.

At this point, the succubus was already calling Cao Kun her darling.

Cao Kun, however, seemed somewhat indifferent, still addressing him as "you."

Even so, the succubus adopted a humble posture, constantly trying to please him.

Cao Kun pushed the keyboard aside and saw Chris's helpless and slightly aggrieved expression. He immediately understood what was going on.

Cao Kun said, "How about I return the money to you? You can handle the rest yourself?"

"No, no," Chris quickly waved his hand. "I just feel a little sad. I really had feelings for him too."

Cao Kun stood up and patted him on the shoulder: "I understand, but in life, there always needs to be a little green."

Chris didn't understand: "What do you mean?"

Cao Kun: "It's nothing."

Cao Kun flipped his hand and took out two talismans: "This is a calming talisman, which can calm the mind and gather chaotic thoughts."

And this amulet can protect you.

You must keep it with you at all times, so that the monster can't pull you into its mental world.

"Thanks!"

Chris quickly took it, treasuring it as if it were a precious gem, and asked, "So, am I safe now?"

Cao Kun: "Although it is currently focusing its attention on me, there is no guarantee that it won't suddenly turn around and target you again."

Chris's expression tightened: "What do we do now?"

Cao Kun: "With my talisman, you can be protected for a period of time. I will try my best to deal with it during that time."

Chris had no other choice but to do whatever Cao Kun said.

"Are you...are you planning to bring this into the real world to resolve this?"

Although Cao Kun referred to the succubus as "it," Chris insisted on using "she."

Cao Kun: "It won't come into reality."

Chris: "Huh? Then you..."

Cao Kun: "You don't need to know that."

"Okay." Chris knew he was an amateur and didn't know much about it.

After a slight hesitation, he carefully said, "Then...then you should be gentle and kind to her..."

Cao Kun was stunned for a moment, then stared intently at him.

Chris was a little embarrassed: "This...this..."

Cao Kun shook his head: "I'm leaving now. Call me if you need anything."

"I send you."

Chris saw Cao Kun to the door and watched him get into the Cadillac and leave, feeling lost and dejected.

It feels like someone has taken away what is most important to me.

He returned to the study and looked at the chat history between Cao Kun and the succubus.

He wanted to send the succubus another message, but ultimately refrained from doing so.

He didn't want to court disaster.

………………

Back at the villa, Scarlett immediately came to greet her and asked, "How are you? Are you alright?"

I wanted to call you, but I was afraid of bothering you.

Cao Kun smiled and said, "I'm fine, and Chris was saved too."

Scarlett breathed a sigh of relief: "You said he had something to do last time, and it turns out he really did run into trouble."

Chris is lucky to have met you.

Otherwise, a major disaster might have already occurred.

Cao Kun nodded secretly.

If he hadn't arrived in time, Chris would be a dried-up corpse by now.

Scarlett asked curiously, "What exactly happened to him?"

Cao Kun: "It's not convenient to talk about this; it's his privacy."

Scarlett didn't press the issue: "Okay, as long as things are resolved perfectly. I'm leaving tomorrow; my vacation is over, and I need to get back to work."

Cao Kun pulled her into his arms: "You can come over anytime."

Perhaps because she was leaving tomorrow, Scarlett put in extra effort during the transfer ceremony that evening.

After taking the elixir, she indeed had the means to achieve it.

This grand transfer ceremony lasted for a very long time before it finally came to an end.

Scarlett was catching her breath and calming down.

Ding!

Cao Kun's phone rang.

He took it and saw it was a message.

"I can feel the vitality of life burgeoning within you; your life force is truly powerful."
