"You rest well, I'll handle it." hope Nian thought for a moment and said in a deep voice, "I'll have Xiao Huang and Guan Luo stay by your side to protect you. Now that the traitor has been found, you're safe here."

Lorna asked bluntly, "You mean you want to go to Los Angeles?"

hope Nian nodded.

Since the other party attacked Lorna and was a terrorist, there's nothing to worry about.

He wanted to take advantage of his current demigod mode and finish off the opponent in one fell swoop!

A cool little hand suddenly tugged at Xinian's clothes, saying in a tone that was hard to tell whether it was a command or a coquettish plea, "Little brother, don't... leave me, at least not tonight."

hope Nian looked down and met those emerald-like eyes, and was immediately unable to refuse. It was the first time he had ever seen the strong Lorna show such a vulnerable side.

Lorna said weakly, "By tomorrow, I should be almost fully recovered, and I will go to Los Angeles to resolve this matter myself."

"How can that be?" hope Nian sighed helplessly and said, "Then tomorrow, I'll go to Los Angeles with you."

Even though there's no demigod mode tomorrow, with Little Emperor around, he can still switch to other modes.

Alternatively, let Lorna replenish her stats.

In short, Xinian didn't want Lorna to face that unknown danger alone.

"Then it's settled, little brother." The green-haired girl turned over, her back to hope Nian outside, a triumphant look flashing in her eyes.

Going to Los Angeles to deal with the enemy forces was just a side thing; what Lorna really wanted was for Xinian to stay by her side longer.

Even if it's just for one day.

……

On the other side, late at night.

At Xinian's home.

A girl with crimson hair, wearing white pajamas, hugged a pink cushion and gently opened the door to the middle room. She looked at the figure lying on the bed in the darkness, came up to him, and whispered, "Master, are you cold?"

The person on the bed didn't respond.

"Asleep..." the scarlet girl muttered, somewhat disappointed, as she left the room clutching her pillow and carefully closed the door behind her.

They were plunged back into a silent room.

As the figure on the bed gently shifted, a mature and alluring woman's body was revealed beneath the covers...

Diana opened her beautiful eyes. She was using her larger pillow as a pillow, while holding a regular-sized pillow in her arms, which she was slowly clamping between her legs, which were sticking out from under her white gauze dress.

With her long, slender, and lustrous legs tucked between her legs, Xinian's pillow began to deform slightly...

Chapter 127, The Ancient One Arrives, the Two Sisters

The next day, Saturday.

At Xinian's home.

There's no need to set an alarm; Wanda has already developed a biological clock that wakes her up early and starts her day's work diligently.

After the girl finished washing up and changed into her everyday clothes, the first thing she did was naturally to go to the second room to wake Xinian up. However, when she opened the door and entered the room, the boy was nowhere to be seen on the empty bed.

Miss Diana, who also left home, left a message indicating that Xinian had gone to a friend's house and might not return until tonight or tomorrow.

At a friend's house? Who could it be?

Also, why didn't I tell her last night that I left so early this morning...?

Wanda couldn't help but think about it for a moment, and a look of disappointment appeared on her face. However, she quickly cheered up and took advantage of Xinian's absence to thoroughly clean the house.

Today, the school's special courses were also canceled.

Wanda remembered that Xinian had said that someone would come to pick her up at 10 a.m. today to learn other things.

then.

After Wanda finished breakfast, she began cleaning the kitchen, bathroom, living room, and other areas. She then put the blankets, pillows, and clothes in Xinian's room into the washing machine to wash and dry them in batches.

"This is..."

The scarlet girl squatted down in front of the wardrobe in Xinian's room, looking at the bottom drawer with a puzzled expression. After opening it and picking up a white shirt, she found two unusual bodysuits underneath.

One was a black and white hooded bodysuit with a mesh pattern and a white spider logo.

The other was a black cape-like bodysuit with a prominent S-shaped totem logo on the chest.

……

Wanda isn't the type to ignore everyday news. In fact, after receiving butler training, her understanding and knowledge of recent news media far surpasses that of Shinian, who only keeps up with the news based on his mood.

So when she saw the two mismatched suits, she immediately connected them to recent events.

Xinian was no ordinary person, something Wanda had always known.

For example, he was able to pull himself out of the rubble five meters below by hand, and sometimes his hair would change color, which was a strange phenomenon.

Wanda silently put the white shirt back in the closet and covered the two tight-fitting battle suits again. She felt inexplicably sad, not because Xinian had kept something from her, but because in certain areas, as a maid or butler, she couldn't offer even the slightest help.

This is undoubtedly a huge dereliction of duty!

Just as Wanda was thinking this, she suddenly heard a strange noise coming from the living room outside.

Wanda then realized that it was already 10 a.m., the time Xinian had said someone would come to pick her up for class.

Wanda hurriedly walked out of the room and came to the living room. Suddenly, she was stunned. In the center of the living room, there were sparks spinning and a strange circular portal was formed in the air. In front of the portal stood a bald woman with her hands behind her back and a kind face.

The bald woman's appearance made it impossible to discern her exact age. With a smile playing on her lips, she looked at Wanda as she emerged from the room and said, "Hello, Wanda Django Maximov."

"Hello. Are you the teacher the young master mentioned, the one who taught me?" Wanda asked instinctively.

"Teacher?" Gu Yi pondered for a moment, then simply shook her head and said, "Not really. I only took hope Nian as my student, but he doesn't want to study, so I'm having you study in his place."

"So you don't need to call me teacher, just call me Ancient One."

Can learning be replaced? The owner is really something...

Wanda felt a strong urge to complain, but she still replied earnestly and obediently, "I will study hard for you, young master!"

The Ancient One gave her a deep look, then turned and walked into the portal behind him: "Come with me."

Wanda wasn't afraid. She took a step forward and followed them into the portal.

After the Ancient One and Wanda entered the portal, the rapidly spinning Martian portal began to shrink until only a tiny spark remained, extinguishing in the empty living room.

……

Los Angeles.

The largest city in the western United States, it has always been known as the "City of Angels". Even Tony Stark, the Iron Man, specially built a super luxurious ocean-view villa here.

There are no resident superheroes in the area. Strangely enough, it is precisely because there are no superheroes that in recent years it has become one of the few cities, besides New York, Gotham City, Metropolis, and Washington, D.C., that has escaped the occurrence of extraordinary events.

At this moment, on a main road in Los Angeles, a bus is traveling at a constant speed towards downtown.

In the two seats in the back row sat a green-haired girl who looked to be about thirteen years old and a black-haired boy who looked to be in his early sixteens.

The black-haired boy was also holding a backpack, the zipper only half-zipped up, inside which was a small orange cat and a glass jar.

It's Lorna, and Xinian, who has already exited demigod mode.

"Um, Boss Polaris, could you please stop holding my hand?" hope Nian said in a low voice.

"What, are you shy already?" Lorna said casually, though her tone sounded a little weak.

"No, I'm afraid..." hope Nian's eyes twitched, and he felt many people on the bus casting strange glances at him.

After all, the two of them clearly weren't siblings.

When Lorna doesn't wear her usual smoky eye makeup, her delicate face is fair and flawless, like an adorable doll. Sitting on a chair with her legs dangling in the air, she looks exactly like a naive young girl.

Xinian didn't look very old either. He was wearing a baseball cap and a face mask, which made him look rather suspicious when he was with Lorna.

hope Nian wanted to express that, compared to the gangster next to him, he was the one who was truly naive and inexperienced.

The car body lurched and swayed slightly.

Lorna frowned slightly and muttered, "Little brother, I want some candy."

"Wait a moment."

Xinian immediately pulled a lollipop from his pocket and peeled off the colorful plastic wrapper. He was about to hand the candy stick to Lorna next to him when he noticed that although she had let go of his hands, she had put them back into her pockets and coolly opened her pink lips in a gesture.

This is the boss, and also a patient...

hope Nian endured it and gently put the lollipop into her small mouth.

Lorna curled her pink tongue like a snake's tongue, took the candy in her mouth, and took a puff like she was smoking. Then she squinted her eyes with a look of pleasure.

As Xinian was putting the candy wrapper into his pocket, he heard Lorna say, holding a lollipop, "Want a bite?"

hope Nian looked at the candy coated with a layer of glossy sheen and shook his head.

Lorna seemed to have figured something out. She took the lollipop back into her mouth and whispered, "Isn't this enough? Is that the only way to gain power?"

"almost."

hope Nian didn't know how to explain it; his ability, besides exchanging fluids, also required physical contact.

Therefore, simply having liquid is indeed not enough.

"Want a bite?" Lorna asked casually, sticking out her tongue. "Isn't that exactly what you need right now?"

"Not for now!"

hope Nian refused outright.

He feared that if he did that, his star rating in the city would quickly soar to two stars.

Chapter 128, The Invisible Man, Unite

The bus continued towards downtown Los Angeles, and the number of high-rise buildings on both sides of the main road gradually increased.

He suddenly felt a pressure on his right shoulder. He glanced to the side and saw Lorna with the remaining candy stick in her mouth, her eyes closed and fast asleep, her green-haired head resting against his shoulder.

The sunlight streaming through the window fell on her little face, making her look even cleaner and more innocent.

Is this guy really here to fight and kill superhumans, or is he just here for sightseeing?
