Chapter 232 -231: Can’t Wait Even a Second to Take Revenge

The gazes of others in the hall were instantly drawn to the scene.

Dolly did not reveal her wings for long, as maintaining such form also consumed her power. She quickly retracted her wings and glanced at Leisk and Luowei Siya, “So, do you understand now?”

However, the response she received was not as strong as she had imagined.

Although it was Luowei Siya’s first time seeing an angelic form, she had been desensitized by too many astonishing sights along the way. In her opinion, a pair of wings was far less incredible than passenger jets or skyscrapers.

Leisk had already witnessed Ailuodi unfolding her wings to fight the Divine Envoy of the Heretical Cult on the stern deck of the Joy Goddess, so such a display clearly could not resonate with him.

“I see, thank you. I understand now,” he replied politely.

“You…”

Dolly’s gaze inevitably fell on Chaoyang—after all, he was the only one who had yet to react.

At this moment, Chaoyang wasn’t focusing on the wings at all. He hadn’t expected to encounter other angels so soon and was more concerned about whether his clone could escape their perception. Although Ailuodi had said that as long as he didn’t use his demon powers, the clone would be virtually indistinguishable from an ordinary person and was unlikely to alert the angels, the fact that it was fashioned from wishing power meant it would dissolve like melting ice at the first sign of an angelic attack. He had been a bit worried when she exhibited her power just then.

The two faced each other in silence, creating an inexplicably odd atmosphere.

“Let’s ignore her and go,” Ailuodi said, stepping in front of Chaoyang to block their line of sight, before taking his hand and heading towards the elevator.

“If K called us here, it’s not for something trivial. You’re of no use in this situation. Don’t forget, if an angel’s energy is depleted, death is inevitable. It’s still not too late to withdraw,” Dolly said coldly from behind.

The other onlookers in the hall were also buzzing with discussion, and some even showed schadenfreude.

After walking about ten steps, Ailuodi suddenly stopped.

She tilted her head towards Chaoyang.

In that instant, he understood her intent.

‘Wishing power should suffice.’

He said in his mind.

Ailuodi turned around to face Dolly.

“What’s the matter, didn’t I speak the truth—”

Before Dolly could finish, Ailuodi had already made her move, and with her first step, time seemed to freeze! The chatter ceased, Dolly’s speech was caught in a temporal standstill, and it appeared that Ailuodi was the only person able to move freely in this world.

Speed of Wind!

Ailuodi, shrouded in a gale, charged towards Dolly while reaching into her backpack to pull out a permanent marker. As she closed in on her target, the tip of the pen danced swiftly across Dolly’s face, completing her artwork in just a few seconds. Dolly still maintained her speaking pose, the next word frozen in her throat.

After finishing, Ailuodi rushed back to her original spot, and as the pause ended, so did her power.

“—not the truth? Compared to this, you’re better suited to hanging out with those orphans in the slums!”

“Pfft.” Leisk and Luowei Siya covered their mouths, barely suppressing their laughter.

Chaoyang almost lost control of his expression too. Dolly, who had just been the epitome of cool beauty, now sported two black circles around her eyes and a dark smudge on her nose, turned into a panda’s visage.

As she finished speaking, she herself sensed something was off. The smell of the permanent marker comingled with a pasty feeling on her face.

She reached up to touch it, and her fingers were coated in wet ink.

“Miss Dolly… your face…” someone nearby exclaimed in shock.

“Does anyone have a mirror?” Dolly’s voice took on a hint of panic.

“Let’s get going, quickly!” Ailuodi giggled as she urged them on, and the four of them jogged to the elevator. The moment the elevator doors closed, an earth-shattering scream rang out from the lobby.

“Ah ah ah————! My face————!”

The four of them finally couldn’t hold back their laughter anymore.

“Is this also a unique ability of Angels?” Leisk asked, still eager to learn amidst the merriment.

“Not really, the abilities Angels receive after awakening vary,” Ailuodi replied, chuckling, “For example, Tiffany can make wilting flowers bloom again, but she’s the only one I know with that ability.”

“Why didn’t you use that move on me when you dealt with me before?” Chaoyang asked curiously.

“Because I couldn’t do it at that time!” the girl pouted, “It’s a trick I came to understand only after my wishing power increased later on. Besides, with the wishing power I had back then, I probably would have collapsed before we even got started running. What, are you still blaming me?”

“Who told you to start swinging the moment we met.”

“Sore loser!”

“Hey, what’s this story? Did you two have a conflict before?” Luowei Siya couldn’t help but join in the gossip.

Chaoyang shrugged regretfully, “That remains a secret.”

Arriving on the second floor, he settled the two guests from Magnificent Castle before using his card to enter his own room. Having just placed his luggage down, a series of knocks came from the door.

Chaoyang opened the door, and to his surprise, it was Ailuodi standing outside.

“You’re already thinking about dinner?” He stepped aside to let her in, then closed the door behind her.

The Angel walked straight to the room’s balcony, opened the sliding glass door, and the cool breeze immediately swept inside, “Actually… what that person said wasn’t completely unreasonable. If she was good friends with Tiffany, she would certainly be quite disappointed in me, and anger would be unavoidable.”

“So you’re planning to tell me about your past now?” Chaoyang followed her to the balcony, where they could see a decorative garden. Men, women, the elderly, and children were chatting and frolicking on the green lawn—they couldn’t all possibly be Angels. Clearly, the awakening of abilities hadn’t prevented them from starting families and having children.

“Well… but to be honest, there’s not much to tell. Initially, Tiffany and I got along quite well, but eventually, we had our differences. Tiffany didn’t approve of my methods, feeling I was wasting my talent. I had the ability to perceive the vitality of life, and she could revive withering life, so Tiffany wanted to start from a clinic and gather capital as quickly as possible to eventually evolve into a large hospital facility.”

“Curing with superpowers? If it became big, it could save a lot of people… sounds promising.”

“You’re thinking too much,” Ailuodi sighed, “Back then we didn’t know you, what would we use to replenish the depleted wishing power? Tiffany was clear-headed about this; the facility wasn’t built for the masses. Her initial goal was to serve a few wealthy individuals, that way they could maintain a balance between the depletion of wishing power and the income from money.”

The Angel used to call it energy, but now she was adept at summarizing it as wishing power.

“Was her interest in making money?”

“No, she felt that helping the people within her reach was meaningless. With money, she could help many people at once, like setting up a charity fund, distributing relief… or even going a step further and seeking political power,” Ailuodi mused while watching the frolicking people nearby, “But I never trusted corporations, nor did I think I’d make it that far. K had warned her too, that once you gather too much capital around you, you’ll be ensnared by another kind of force, and many things would end up contrary to one’s wishes.”

Er… looking at this lavishly decorated suite and the garden built in the wilderness, why did he feel like K’s admonishments weren’t very convincing?

“Do you know why I trust your Gate of Destiny company?” Ailuodi suddenly asked.

“Why?”

“Because what you pursue is wishing power, which ensures you’ll never be ensnared by capital.”
