At the opening ceremony, I transformed into Time King and manifested my divine power before everyone

"What are Alien Beasts and Night Raid Teams? What kind of monster race are Alien Beasts? I've never heard of them before."

"Um...it's nothing, just something from an anime. Well, it seems there's nothing more for us to do here, so let's go."

"What a pity. I was hoping to explore more, but this happened instead." Ye Yu looked back at the messy street, feeling annoyed and angry.

Xie Xiaoxiao comforted her, "It's okay, Ye Yu. If you want to have fun, we can go to other places in a couple of days. Nobody knows us there, so we shouldn't have these worries."

"Really? Sister Xiaoxiao, you're so kind! If you could be my sister-in-law, I would be so happy!" Ye Yu excitedly hugged Xie Xiaoxiao and acted coquettishly.

Her unintentional words stung Xie Xiaoxiao, making her blush and shyly glance at Ye Feng.

Ye Feng stood to the side, not daring to utter a word.

The three left the scene and returned to the villa.

"Why are you back so soon?"

Ji Ling was sitting by the living room window, lost in thought. When she saw the three of them return, she asked curiously.

"S.H.I.E.L.D. has sent two core members, number 88 and 99, to deal with Ye Feng."

Xie Xiaoxiao's answer shocked Ji Ling.

"What? S.H.I.E.L.D. sent such a powerful opponent? Are you all alright?"

Xie Xiaoxiao smiled disdainfully: "Since we were able to come back alive, of course we're fine. Number 88 and Number 99 died at Ye Feng's hands."

Ji Ling no longer considers herself a member of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Based on her actions.

If S.H.I.E.L.D. finds out, they will definitely not let her go.

Even if she leaves Ye Feng, the Ji family will still not let her go.

The only safe place was next to Ye Feng.

It's laughable when you think about it.

Initially, she came to Ye Feng with the intention of eliminating Zi-O.

Unexpectedly, in the end, she had to rely on the power of Zi-O.

The capriciousness and irony of fate are fully manifested at this moment.

"Oh, right, a monster that can turn invisible also appeared tonight. It seemed to be some kind of Orphnoch. It tried to steal my brother's transformation device, but my brother found out."

"The Orphnoch stole your brother's transformation device? What a coincidence! Did the Orphnoch team up with S.H.I.E.L.D.?"

Ji Ling's words were originally just a subconscious remark.

This startled Ye Feng, Ye Yu, and Xie Xiaoxiao.

"S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Orphnoch? Is that even possible?" Xie Xiaoxiao asked.

Ji Ling thought for a moment and said, "If it were before... it would definitely be impossible. S.H.I.E.L.D. and any monsters are like fire and water, there is absolutely no possibility of cooperation. But now... with the huge threat of Zi-O, it's hard to say. In order to eliminate Zi-O, they may reach a short-term cooperation agreement, especially given that Zi-O has already demonstrated his powerful strength. This possibility is not out of the question."

"Could it be because Ye Feng killed you last night... the matriarch of the Ji family... that S.H.I.E.L.D. felt a strong threat?"

Xie Xiaoxiao originally wanted to say, "Kill your mother."

But I also felt it was impolite.

She forcefully swallowed the word "Mom" back.

A mother was urgently recalled.

"That could actually be the case. In that case... I've caused you trouble, Ye Feng... I'm sorry."

Ji Ling, quite sensibly, took the blame herself.

Latest plot update: Click to follow.

Ye Feng shrugged: "Whatever, they like to throw dirty water on me anyway, so it doesn't matter if they do."

At this point, Ji Ling suddenly snapped out of her reverie, a strange look flashing across her face: "Oh, right... there's one more thing... Xie Xiaoxiao, this matter concerns you."

"What does this have to do with me? What about it?"

Ji Ling bit her lip, hesitated for a moment, and slowly said, "According to some clues that S.H.I.E.L.D. had previously gathered... your brother Xie Baoqing may have been resurrected."

The deaths of the Xie family father and son were orchestrated by Sky.H.I.E.L.D.

Although Ji Ling was not a participant, she was an informed party and a former member of S.H.I.E.L.D.

I still feel somewhat guilty towards Xie Xiaoxiao, the victim.

That's why she hadn't brought this up before.

Her position within this small group was already in an awkward position.

So subconsciously I want to avoid these things.

"Resurrection..." Xie Xiaoxiao realized something: "You mean, my brother might have become an Orphnoch?"

"That should be it... More than a month ago, we received a tip that your brother's grave had been dug up and the body inside had disappeared... According to the investigators' survey of the scene, it was believed that the grave was broken open from the inside out, which means that your brother came back to life and came out of there on his own."

"That's impossible. I visited my brother's and dad's graves a while ago...they were perfectly fine, weren't they?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Ling remained silent, only staring at Xie Xiaoxiao.

Xie Xiaoxiao herself realized something.

"So... S.H.I.E.L.D. was afraid I'd find out, so they restored my brother's grave and had the cemetery staff keep it a secret from me?"

"Mm." Ji Ling nodded gently.

"Where is my brother now? Where is he? If he's been resurrected, why doesn't he come back to find me?"

Xie Xiaoxiao was emotional, her eyes red-rimmed.

"Do you think... he dares to come back? Once he returns, S.H.I.E.L.D. will immediately discover that he has become an Orphnoch... what awaits him is S.H.I.E.L.D.'s ruthless elimination. Obviously, he himself is aware of this, so he dares not come back."

".......Heavens! Shield! Bureau!" Xie Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth and uttered these three words one by one.

The intense hatred was almost overflowing.

At this moment, Ye Feng interjected, "Actually, I was thinking of asking about this before: what's the situation with the Orphnochs in Shancheng?"

The fact that the Orphnoch were able to develop the Faiz Rider System, and even the final form of Faiz, Burst Mode, demonstrates that they have mastered extremely powerful abilities.

Based on his knowledge of those Orphnochs.

There are bound to be ambitious individuals among the Orphnoch who want to cause trouble.

We must be wary.

Understanding the situation in advance will help you deal with it better later.

Ji Ling is a member of S.H.I.E.L.D., and her status as a core member of the Ji family gives her a special position within S.H.I.E.L.D., allowing her to know information that many ordinary members do not.

"Orphnochs are a special kind of monster; they exist almost all over the world, and this mountain town is no exception."

"Moreover, Shancheng is one of the three cities in the Great Xia Kingdom with the largest number of Orphinos."

"So the Orphnochs actually have a lot of power in the mountain city, even more than S.H.I.E.L.D.'s mountain city branch."

"It is precisely because of this situation that S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters sent its most notorious officer, Officer 66, to the Mountain City branch to keep order and deter the restless Orphnochs, hoping they would behave themselves and cause less trouble."
