Mu Luo led everyone back to the city where Ye Yao originally lived.

I just left here half a month ago.

As it turned out, quite a few things did happen.

I just hope that things can be peaceful for a while from now on.

"I'm going home, Xia Lian, you're not allowed to follow me."

"Huh? Why!? White Cat, my loyalty is so clear, why are you..."

Night Child and the others returned to the large apartment they had bought with funds from the Countermeasures Bureau.

Mu Luo and the others had already gone to rest next door.

It's unclear whether it's a real rest or [N O V E L I G H T] a fake one.

Lao Mu might be secretly observing this society undergoing dramatic changes.

I'm afraid Lao Gu will patrol the streets to see who might fall into darkness.

Lao Jiang will probably look for inspiration from the mysterious painter.

Since no one's taking Yu Jin out to play, he'll probably go to the gym to lift weights.

Let them do as they please.

Night Ballads won't interfere with the bros' lives.

Now only Xia Lian remains by my side.

It seems she still wants to go with them to see Xiao Jing?

The girl with long, straight black hair disregarded all propriety and hugged Ye Tong's leg, giving off a sense of astonishing wisdom.

Night Child was going to take An Qi away, but there wasn't a single cat in the huge, single-level apartment.

What is Xia Lian still doing here?

Want to activate your ghost brain and pet a cat in the void?

"White cat, take me with you!"

"What do you mean? Aren't you worried that Xiao Jing will think of you as a bad woman and try to persuade me to stay away from you?"

Ye Tong was also thinking of Xia Lian's best interests to some extent.

Upon hearing this, Xia Lian trembled, probably imagining the troubled expression on Xiao Jing's face.

Xiao Jing holds a very special place in Bai Maomao's heart.

Lou Wei may be a cheap father, but Xiao Jing is a truly expensive mother.

Even if she came from the Countermeasures Bureau, there might have been an element of acting at first, but she definitely came to regard her as her biological mother later on.

The level of intimacy far surpasses that of the so-called strongest in modern times.

Xia Lian could disregard Lou Wei's evaluation and warnings.

But Xiao Jing is different.

Xia Lian didn't want to be disliked by Xiao Jing.

"Then... should I tone it down a bit?"

Are you sure you can fool them?

Ye Tong was speechless.

A woman's intuition can be terrifying.

Let's not even mention that Xiao Jing already knew Xia Lian's information.

Even if Xia Lian acts very honestly in front of Xiao Jing, her true nature might still be seen through.

It's highly likely that you could tell at a glance that this is a bad woman who likes to lay hands on her daughter.

Ye Tong could tolerate Xia Lian's advances towards him, but Xiao Jing was unsure.

She might respect her daughter's choice of friends, but she might not be able to view Xia Lian calmly.

Once the two meet, the atmosphere might become very strange.

Xia Lian used to only cause trouble for herself. How could she not have any self-awareness? What a stupid dog!

The girl with long, straight black hair fell into deep thought, seemingly also feeling that this was somewhat inappropriate.

You can't let the mother of the person you love find out that her daughter has made bad friends.

Otherwise, what's the difference between that and an old father who discovers his beloved daughter has been snatched away by a blond-haired brat?

He'll probably be furious and issue a PK challenge.

Xia Lian took a deep breath, her eyes filled with determination, as if she were filled with some kind of resolve.

"I still want to go, as long as I can avoid upsetting the other person, right?"

"oh?"

The night child made sounds of great interest.

Could it be that...?

Is Xia Lianqu going to reform herself and become a lady?

Night Child did not use the system to read information.

She wanted to see what Xia Lian was planning.

If Xia Lian were to transform into a dragon, then that would be the perfect Xia Lian.

The girl's expression was very serious.

"Actually, I can wait alone in the white cat's room without talking to Xiao Jing face to face, which can help avoid disputes as much as possible."

Night Child: "?"

Damn it, the God Zone is full of flies!

This statement perfectly illustrates the saying "the true intentions are revealed when the map is unrolled."

She could guess what kind of trick Xia Lian was up to even without the system.

Are they planning to steal some of her belongings from her room?

This is beyond inhuman; we must strike hard!

"Qu, don't insult my intelligence with such nonsensical words!"

"Stay here and guard the house. If you dare follow me, I'll lock you in a dark room for a whole day!"

"How...how could this be?!"

Xia Lian knelt on the ground, only able to watch helplessly as Ye Tong led An Qi away.

Step outside the house.

Ye Tong used Xia Lian as an example to instruct An Qi.

“An Qi, don’t be like that guy. People like that have no future.”

"Hmm, it's a bit strange, but she really likes Yoruichi. I can see her fate line tightly entwined with you."

An Qi's expression was somewhat subtle.

Xia Lian's way of expressing her feelings was still too advanced for her.

Fortunately, the Fate Line helped her see the true nature of things.

Xia Lian's fate is one of the few that actively and tightly entangles with Ye Yao.

Although it's still not as good as when I've already completely given away my fate, it's still quite a lot of strength.

On the street.

Ye Tong and An Qi did not use supernatural means to reach their destination.

The former wants to see their own success.

The streets are now bustling with activity, almost everyone is discussing the changes they've experienced.

The countermeasures bureau reacted very quickly, contacting the media in a short period of time to stabilize public sentiment.

Now, live news broadcasts are playing everywhere, educating people who have just awakened their supernatural abilities about these supernatural powers.

Ye Yao also saw many law enforcement officers on the street.

When the countermeasures bureau was short-handed, it joined forces with organized and disciplined agencies such as the police and the military.

The action was remarkably swift.

It's just that the average quality of the people in China is relatively high, so things won't get too chaotic for the time being.

With the reassurance from the state, they will probably be able to adapt after a while.

What follows will likely be a long and arduous process of statistical analysis, involving registering information about superpowers, much like a population census.

The countermeasures bureau will probably have to hire a lot of drudges and laborers.

I doubt anyone like Homelander will come forward.

Who can blame them when there's a powerful "ancestor" named "Nursery Rhyme" above them?

This is an invisible deterrent. If anyone wants to cause trouble, they'll have to think twice before facing "Tong Yao's" punishment.

Of course, they will probably shift their focus soon.

It all depends on whether anyone thinks Wu Song possessed him and recklessly slid over a tiger.

Anyway, Night Child is too lazy to care about these things.

Just go about your life as usual!

at the same time.

Inside a residence in the Countermeasures Bureau residential area.

Xiao Jing was preparing to head to headquarters.

At this moment, her face was filled with worry and urgency, wishing she could teleport to the capital immediately.

After all, news came back from headquarters that Ye Yao's superpower went berserk and nearly destroyed the world. She subsequently fell into a deep sleep and needed further examination of her physical condition.

As Ye Yao's adoptive mother, Xiao Jing naturally knew more inside information.

She no longer cared about whether her identity would be exposed.

Xiao Jing just wanted to get to headquarters as soon as possible to be by Ye Yao's side.

I was afraid I would never see her again.

Just as Xiao Jing was about to leave, the doorbell rang.

"Who comes looking for me now?"

Xiao Jing opened the door with a puzzled look on her face.

Then they saw a familiar silver-haired girl standing at the door with a purple-haired girl.

Night Child raised a slightly weak smile.

"Sorry to bother you, Mom..."
