He patted his chest with lingering fear and said, "It’s good that I’m not hurt, it’s good that nothing’s wrong—"

At this moment, he was extremely relieved that he hadn’t caused a major disaster.

This feeling of narrowly escaping disaster wasn’t bad at all.

An Mingji glanced at Allen’s startled and delighted expression, displaying the pride of youth, and asked, "Did you use all your strength just now?"

"All my strength, I used all my strength."

Allen no longer had the thought of competing with him; he just wanted to follow this young master’s lead.

His attitude was obviously perfunctory, which made An Mingji displeased.

The attitude Allen had towards him was just like the way Sister Jin used to care for him several years ago, treating him like a little child.

Jin’s care was something he was addicted to, but Allen... this feeling really made one grit their teeth in frustration.

He wished he could give him a good beating.

Recalling the feeling of being shrouded in the black mist just now, An Mingji pressed his lips together.

He had to admit, Allen was really strong.

Even though the other claimed to have used all his strength, he hadn’t sensed any lethality from the attack.

Their brief sparring allowed An Mingji to grasp the other’s ability.

He was sure that if they were on opposite sides, he could take down Allen.

After all, he had only used fifty percent of his power.

An Mingji’s expression returned to calm, he lifted his chin slightly and said in a cold voice, "Clean this place up, I’ll wait for you outside."

After saying this, he turned and walked toward the stairs.

Watching the youth’s departing figure, Allen asked, "Young Master, what should we do with these people?"

An Mingji didn’t even turn his head and replied, "How did you handle them before, handle them the same way now."

He stepped onto the stairs, and his slender figure quickly disappeared from everyone’s sight.

An Mingji’s departure made Allen and the others speed up in cleaning up the treats in the cages.

After enjoying all the treats from eight cages, Allen gathered his men, and they stood in a line in front of the cages.

They faced the terrified treats in the cages, releasing an even denser black mist than when they absorbed their powers before.

Madame Darwin didn’t like blood, and Allen and his men’s superpowers were most suited for cleaning up the battlefield.

The dense black mist enveloped the people in the cages.

Screams rang out, only to be abruptly cut off.

The mist dispersed, and the eight cages were empty, leaving only ashes on the ground.

This was the true devouring power.

Wherever the black mist passed, no flesh or blood remained.

An Mingji’s ability to resist the devouring superpower overturned Allen and the others’ understanding of him.

The fact that he could remain unscathed showed his formidable strength. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Except for accidentally... biting his tongue.

...

When Gu Jin returned home, she found out that An Mingji was not at home.

She patted Duoduo, who had been circling around her since she entered, and asked Kasi, "Where did Xiao An go?"

Kasi respectfully replied, "Young Master went out, seems like he was called by a classmate."

Hearing this, Gu Jin asked no further, nor did she suspect anything.

"Woo woo—" At this time, Duoduo made a dissatisfied sound.

It nudged Gu Jin’s leg with its head, seemingly unhappy about being ignored.

Gu Jin sat on the sofa, patted its head, and feigned displeasure, "Don’t push it, I just petted a handful of your fur."

"Woo woo woo woo—"

Duoduo was still unhappy, its voice sounding low and forlorn.

Gu Jin patted Duoduo’s head again, "Be good."

"Woo woo woo—" Duoduo continued to whine softly.

When Gu Jin ignored it, it curled its body up.

"Howl howl!!!"

Duoduo let out a wolf’s howl, sharp in tone.

Hearing this, Gu Jin frowned slightly, her gaze on Duoduo becoming more seriously attentive.
