Katsumi Kajio, Tatsuhiko Yoneda, Satoru Yoshida, Miho Inashiro... all the XIG members present, whether commanders, captains, or members, stood at attention at the same moment, raised their right hands, and paid the highest respect to the black-haired boy.
It was still a bit too grand, even though, in his own opinion, he hadn't really done anything particularly remarkable...
Looking at the solemn and dignified scene before him, Li Qingyang smiled somewhat helplessly and nodded slowly.
Then, a soft, silvery-white light slowly emanated from his body.
The light grew brighter and brighter, eventually completely enveloping his figure.
Finally, under the watchful eyes of everyone who remained at attention, the black-haired boy transformed into a bright, silvery-white streak of light, soaring into the sky and disappearing above the hangar's dome...

Main text: Chapter 131 Drained dry by the little ghost girl all night; Superman A-Guang calls for help
The night was as dark as ink.
The mountain in Chiyoda Ward, formed from the ruins of the city, stands silently under the moonlight, like a sinister and grotesque tombstone.
High above, the pitch-black night sky twisted without warning, and ripples spread out in the space, tearing open a deep rift from which a silent torrent of gold suddenly burst forth.
Immediately afterwards, a gigantic figure enveloped in dazzling light flew out and hovered high in the night sky.
Its pale blue eyes burned with a golden and silver glow as it silently looked down at the quiet city below.
Then, the enormous body began to transform into billions of points of light, like a grand golden firework silently blooming in the night sky, before returning to silence after its dazzling display.
A streak of silvery light flashed from the center of the light particle, piercing the deep night sky, and landed precisely in the depths of the courtyard of the Shinomiya Villa at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye.
The light faded.
The figure of the black-haired boy appeared. He stood on the soft grass, and his body still carried a trace of chaotic aura after traveling through time and space.
Feeling the warmth and joy emanating from the earth beneath his feet, Li Qingyang took a deep breath of the familiar air.
Hey little ghost, I'm back from my business trip with overtime work!
This trip to Gaia's time and space was very rewarding.
Not only did they get the Ultraman manufacturing instructions, they also conveniently acquired a huge amount of professional knowledge about Alchemy Star and XIG. They really hit the jackpot.
He looked up at the moon in the sky, and it seemed to be slightly different from when he left, so it must have been a few hours.
Just then, a hazy halo quietly gathered beside him.
The figure of the little girl in the red dress gradually became clear. The red sundress made her fair shoulders and arms look like fine mutton fat jade. Her long, smooth black hair fell to her waist. Her bare, snow-white feet were on the grass, and her delicate, sculpted face was expressionless.
She floated straight to Li Qingyang, said nothing, and hugged his leg tightly, her small body pressed against him.
Then, she raised her delicate little face, her dark and pure eyes seemingly carrying a hint of resentment.
"Qingyang, you're lying. You said you'd be back soon."
The soft, loli-like voice was ethereal and clear, carrying a hint of barely perceptible grievance.
She paused for a moment, then said something surprising.
"Fickle-minded?"
"W-What are you doing? I've only been walking for a little while!"
Li Qingyang almost choked on his own saliva.
The little girl in the red dress let go of his hand, turned around in front of him expressionlessly, and her red skirt fluttered in the wind.
"But I've already gone around in a whole circle."
???
Li Qingyang was taken aback at first, then realized what was happening and was completely shocked.
"A whole circle..." refers to the Earth rotating once?
A whole day has passed already?
From the moment I landed in Gaia's timeline until I returned, it only took me an hour or two at most.
The difference in time flow rate is so outrageous!
“Little ghost girl, this is actually a rather serious problem.” Li Qingyang squatted down, raised his index finger and said seriously, “The flow of time is different in different timelines. I did only stay there for a short while, but a whole day has passed here.”
Really?
The little girl in the red dress tilted her head, and then the aura around her seemed to brighten a bit.
"Qingyang wasn't lying."
"Of course I'm not lying to you."
Li Qingyang chuckled, but quickly frowned again. "However, we need to find a way to solve this time difference problem. What if I'm away for a long time in the future? Will decades have passed here?"
"Sure."
The little girl in the red dress nodded, then raised her two small, fair hands and drew a large circle with a blank expression.
"But I need lots and lots of Qingyang's light to fill me up."
"Okay, okay, here you go."
Li Qingyang helplessly rubbed her little head, then looked up at the four palaces where the lights and fire had been turned off.
"Kaguya and Ai are both very worried about Qingyang." The little ghost girl floated up quietly, hung on Li Qingyang's shoulder, and said softly.
A faint golden light flashed in Li Qingyang's eyes, and his gaze easily penetrated the wall to confirm the condition of the two girls.
Both Hayasaka Ai and Shinomiya Kaguya were sleeping soundly, their breathing steady, clearly having entered a deep sleep.
After all, it's already late at night.
I won't bother them then. I'll send them a text message tomorrow to let them know I'm safe.
Li Qingyang activated the light of the silver sky within his body, and his figure instantly transformed into a silver-white stream of light, soaring into the sky and disappearing into the night sky, heading straight towards Qianye.
............
A silvery-white light silently penetrated the apartment's glass windows and coalesced in the center of the living room.
As soon as Li Qingyang steadied himself, a yellow blur suddenly darted out of the bedroom.
"Waaah..."
The little yellow dog, Gaddy, let out a series of extremely aggrieved whimpers, crashing into his arms like a small cannonball, jumping and hopping, its tail wagging so hard it almost flew up, yet still emitting pitiful whimpers.
"!!!"
Li Qingyang's facial expression froze instantly, as if a thunderbolt had exploded in his mind.
Oh no, I forgot about my dog!
While on a business trip to Gaia, I felt like only an hour or two had passed, but a whole day had actually gone by here.
He left his dog at home all day without even feeding it...
Li Qingyang looked around and saw that the house was neat and tidy, without any signs of being disturbed.
This little guy was actually quite well-behaved; even though he was hungry all day, he didn't run around, bark, or destroy anything in the house.
A feeling of guilt instantly filled his chest, almost overflowing.
Li Qingyang immediately squatted down and comforted him with a lot of rubbing and stroking, while constantly apologizing.
Before long, the little yellow dog seemed to have forgotten its grievance of being abandoned by its owner all day. It was happily sticking out its tongue and circling around Li Qingyang and the little girl in the red dress.
Oh, good dog, good dog.
Li Qingyang rubbed his head vigorously while sighing inwardly.
It's true what they say, you only realize the love of your parents when you raise a child (?). As a father (?), I'm really not a very good one.
Unfortunately, all we have left at home is iced tea and instant noodles, so there's nothing to make up for it. I'll check tomorrow morning to see if they sell any muscle-building dog food...
He got up and walked towards the bedroom, the little girl in the red dress following silently behind him.
Gedi craned his neck to peek inside, tilted his head, and then obediently lay down next to the low table, resting his chin on his front paws, gazing longingly in the direction of the bedroom.
Li Qingyang sat down by the bed, closed his eyes, and let his consciousness sink into the golden ocean of light within his body.
Soon, a stream of information emitting a faint glow emerged from the depths of the sea of light, which he carefully guided out and hovered above his palm.
"Little ghost girl, this is the 'Ultraman Manufacturing Instructions' given by the planetary will of Gaia Time and Space. See if you can decode it."
Upon hearing this, the little girl in the red dress silently stretched out her delicate white hand and gently touched the ball of light with her fingertips.
The ball of light was instantly absorbed into her body. Then she closed her eyes, and a hazy aura around her began to slowly surge, its brightness fluctuating.
After a moment, the surging halo gradually subsided.
She opened her eyes.
The little ghost girl's delicate, exquisitely beautiful face twisted in a rare display of distress.
She floated in front of Li Qingyang and gently bumped her forehead against his chest.
"He said I was stingy." A soft, childlike voice trembled with unprecedented grievance. "He even called me an idiot, saying I couldn't make an Ultraman..."
Ah, this...
The expectation on Li Qingyang's face instantly turned into the expression of an elderly person on the subway looking at their phone.
The first page of the guide to creating Ultraman from the Earth's will in the Gaia timeline—is it just a way to diss the little ghost girl who doesn't know how to create Ultraman?
What is this? Bullying between planetary wills?
That's very good at targeting pain points.
Li Qingyang was both amused and exasperated. He reached out and pressed down on the little ghost girl's head, which was still banging against his chest, and soothed her gently, "Alright, alright, don't be angry. She's just jealous that you... uh... don't have a reliable patron like me?"
The little ghost girl puffed up her cheeks, her tone resolute, "I will not give Qingyang to Him!"
So, do I not belong to myself? Do I have to fight over the ball with you two?
"Don't be angry, don't be angry." Li Qingyang straightened her small body, his expression becoming serious. "Let's talk about serious matters. Putting aside those ball-based attacks, is there anything wrong with the contents of the instruction manual? Is it complete? Can we use it?"
“…Okay, sure.” The little girl in the red dress nodded reluctantly.
Li Qingyang instantly sprang out of bed, clenched his fists, and his expression changed from that of an old man on the subway looking at his phone to one of jubilation: "That's right, this is exactly what I wanted to see!"
"Nice!!!"
He spun around in the bedroom twice, so excited he almost wanted to roar to the sky.
Finally, finally I can make Ultraman figures!
If we encounter any crisis in the future, we can just mass-produce an Ultraman army and take them down. Let's see who dares to cause trouble on Earth again.
He stopped and stared intently at the little girl in the red dress. "There's no time to lose, hurry up and make one... no, make a whole bunch!"
However, the little ghost girl just floated in place, pouting her pink lips.
"Qingyang has not yet given me light."
Before Li Qingyang could say anything, the little girl in the red dress floated into his lap, nuzzled her head against his chest, and murmured in a clear, ethereal voice.
"I need lots and lots of Qingyang's light to create Ultraman. Fill me up, Qingyang..."
"..."
Li Qingyang's ecstatic expression froze instantly, completely stunned by this statement.
I now seriously suspect that you, little ghost, have learned some truly horrible and harmful things from human society...
He covered his face and sighed deeply, then resignedly picked up her small body.
The next moment, golden light surged from the black-haired boy's body, enveloping the little girl in the red dress like a gentle tide, instantly making the hazy halo around her dazzling. The entire bedroom was dyed a warm gold, and the curtains were made translucent, revealing a dreamlike halo.
The little yellow dog in the living room raised its head and gently wagged its tail in the direction from which the light came, its dark eyes reflecting the golden light shining through the crack in the door.
Time slipped away quietly in this gentle glow.
As the night outside the window gradually faded, the first rays of dawn shone through the gaps in the curtains into the bedroom, casting dappled light and shadow on the floor.
The chirping of early birds drifted from afar, and the occasional sound of car engines echoed from the street; the world began to awaken.
I never imagined that this hug would lead to a whole night of kissing...
