“Are you sure?” Su Hao looked at this weak little girl in front of him.
After confirming his identity, he thought that this little girl would ask him to help her to be together with Lan Tingxu. After all, for the current Su Hao, grade S talent or whatever isn’t an issue. However, never would he have imagined that this little girl would take the initiative to leave Lan Tingxu instead!
“En.” Xiao Wen nodded seriously.
“Why?” Su Hao looked at her in interest.
“I don’t want to be a vase.” Xiao Wen said in a firm resolution, “I can ask anyone. I can put down my self-esteem in front of anyone, but when it involves him, I want to stand with him equally. I can feel that Big Uncle is suffering. I don’t want to be his burden, but protect him instead!”
“Protect him?” Su Hao was speechless.
This little girl’s tone sounded ridiculous, but Su Hao could feel her resolution. With a different world view, one sees things differently. In the eyes of others, this matter was ridiculous, but this little girl was earnest because it was something that she wants to protect.
Seems that this little girl really likes Uncle Lan?
“Are you confident?” Su Hao looked at her in interest.
“I am!” Xiao Wen nodded firmly.
“Then, for the remaining part…”Su Hao’s eyes flashed with a smile, “Just leave it to me.”
Jingdong City.
Lan Tingxu, who was looking for Xiao Wen, suddenly received news from Su Hao, “Uncle Lan, I killed a little brat with a grade S talent in Jingdong City. Do you want to come here and deal with it?”
“Grade S? Jingdong City?” Lan Tingxu experienced a deep shock.
With his space force immediately activated, he rushed to the location given by Su Hao. However, when he reached that location, he saw Su Hao and Xiao Wen standing there, waiting for him. Xiao Wen didn’t hide from him. Her eyes were showing a look which he had never seen before. She stood together with Su Hao, like a pair of ideal couples.
Under the setting sun…
Lan Tingxu discovered for the first time that this little girl whom he had been chasing for a long time turned out to be this charming. Su Hao, who was standing beside her, even looked more handsome than before. For the first time ever, Lan Tingxu felt that Su Hao was so handsome that he loathed.
Inexplicably, Lan Tingxu was a little irritated.
What was this feeling he is experiencing now?
Lan Tingxu quickly calmed down the restlessness in his heart.
“Come with me!” Lan Tingxu looked at Xiao Wen coldly.
He didn’t wish to see Su Hao. Since Li Tiantian and Xiao Die died, he no longer wished to meet Su Hao. Although he knew that it had nothing to do with Su Hao, each time he saw Su Hao, he would recall that day, that pain. This was why he had been avoiding Su Hao.
“Big Uncle, I don’t want to.” Xiao Wen stuck out her tongue, “Brother Su will protect me, hmpphh.”
“Brother Su…” Lan Tingxu felt a bit sad. In fact, he didn’t understand why he had such a feeling. Subconsciously, he looked at Su Hao.
“Sorry to call you here with such a method.” Su Hao continued in an apologetic tone, “I quite like this little girl, and plan to bring her back to the Su family. By doing so, she can be protected better. I am just here to inform you about this.”
“She’s a grade S talent esper. I need to bring her away.” Lan Tingxu coldly looked at Su Hao.
“I have a method to turn her back to normal.” Su Hao said indifferently, “Uncle Lan, you should be aware that since I dare to show myself, I won’t let you take her away. Instead of her turning into an ordinary person to struggle in this chaotic era, why not let her live peacefully in the Su family?”
Lan Tingxu went silent for a long time.
“I believe you. Please take good care of her.” Lan Tingxu looked at Su Hao’s eyes sincerely, “I don’t want Xiao Die’s tragedy to happen to her.”
“Alright!” Su Hao firmly replied.
“Then I can rest assured.” Lan Tingxu turned around and left. Uncle Lan is indeed Uncle Lan, as calm as always. However, through synchronous space, Su Hao could detect Lan Tingxu’s violent internal fluctuation. After all, he still had some feeling toward this little girl.
“Shouldn’t I be happy instead?” Lan Tingxu’s heart was a little stuffy.
This was an experience that had never happened with Xiao Die before. Xiao Wen looked like his daughter in his eyes. He liked her and had been taking care of this silly girl silently as if she’s his own daughter. He also wished for her to have a better life, and now, Xiao Wen had left with Su Hao…
With Su Hao’s strength, with the Su family’s situation, Xiao Wen’s life would be countless times better than now.
But…
Why was it so painful?
He still remembered before this, he was extremely confident that he had a daughter-father like relationship with Xiao Wen, but how did it develop to such a stage?
It’s really…
Extremely painful.
Lan Tingxu touched his empty chest and left with a calm face. Su Hao and Xiao Wen just looked at him like that. Xiao Wen wished to reach out several times but eventually remained still in silence.
“Uncle Lan, he treats me like a daughter?” Xiao Wen was a little sad.
“It might be, it might not be.” Su Hao’s eyes narrowed, “No matter what strength he has, Uncle Lan is no ordinary person. I promised you a future, but do you have the confidence to stand in front of him? The confidence to erase the shadow within his heart so that he could live on happily? Uncle Lan’s heart hurts even more than what we can imagine.”
“I do!” Xiao Wen restored her confidence!
Squeezing her fists tightly, her face shone with a strange light. Lan Tingxu most likely didn’t know that Xiao Wen was so different today because of him. He would have never thought that when there would be such a day when he was supposed to spend his life alone.
A young girl.
Walking along the alley under the rainy night, opening an umbrella for him to cover against the wind and rain.
Xiao Wen went back.
Su Hao arranged for some men to send her to the Su family and conveyed his instructions. He believed that with the aid of internal force, Xiao Wen would soon transform and become a truly strong esper! And he believed that one day, Xiao Wen would stand in front of Lan Tingxu to protect him.
“Going through hell for the sake of keeping appearances.” Su Hao muttered.
However, he also knew that only with this method that it allows Lan Tingxu to let go of the knot in his heart… The matter regarding Li Tiantian and Xiao Die, people like Lan Tingxu, would just keep and carry all the pain in his heart.
The current state of his heart is akin to a city shrouded in haze.
The interesting thing is…
Xiao Wen is the bright sun!
“I didn’t expect to see such an interesting scene when I came to see Uncle Lan.” Su Hao’s mouth revealed a smile, “Uncle Lan’s business is done. Now it should be the time for our matter to begin, right? Little guy?”
Su Hao patted his backpack.
“Aowo~.” Little Bear protested for a bit with its fluffy head.
“Then, it’s time to go.” Su Hao didn’t care whether it could understand his words. He just suddenly vanished.
Somewhere in a villa hotel within Jingdong City, a garden had been booked. Su Hao sat in the middle of the garden alone with endless brilliance illuminating around him. Su Hao’s figure was motionless. His goal coming here was now completed. Now, he can finally start the real agenda.
Buzz~
Su Hao raised his head.
If Lan Tingxu were here and witnessed this scene, he would be horrified because what Su Hao displayed right now was none other than his own ability talent!
“So, this is the space force?”
Su Hao let the force condense within his hands.
Yes!
Space talent!
This was the purpose of his visit to Jingdong City! To find Lan Tingxu and use his powerful realization to create an origin model of Lan Tingxu’s talent! By doing so, it was as if Su Hao himself has space talent! Doesn’t that mean he could now utilize space force?
Origin model establishment!
This was the most crucial change for him when the second card appeared. He could build a temporary origin model in his body and be able to copy the opponent’s ability talent, which is horrifying! However, because the foes had been too powerful, this origin model seemed to have gradually lost its effectiveness.
And now, this long lost origin technique bloomed again.
What Su Hao wanted was simple, space force!
At first, he thought that only with the birth of space force that Kingdom of Heaven can have such a force. Then, Ping Yang would be able to resurrect the others, but after careful analysis, he had new ideas. Does he really need to create space force by himself?
When compared to acquiring space force from others, isn’t the latter much easier?
Whether it’s true or not, Ping Yang would be the one to judge.
“Ping Yang!” Su Hao yelled.
Inside Kingdom of Heaven, Ping Yang, who was commanding the men in black, was stunned. Then, he saw a bright light flashing in the sky. It seemed like a huge building model with an unusual brilliance shining and also a familiar force.
“What is that?” Ping Yang was surprised.
Boom!
The light ray blasted down.
It kept getting smaller, and when it fell in front of Ping Yang, it turned into a heart-sized energy ball. When Ping Yang reached out to touch it in curiosity, it suddenly shrank and entered his body. At the same time, a familiar force seemed to have returned to his body at this moment.
“This is!” Ping Yang was extremely shocked.
“Space force! This is space force!”
Ping Yang couldn’t control himself due to his excitement, “Haha, space force has returned! Sister Yating, Li Tiantian, and the others, they can finally be back!”
Swish!
A few photos fluttered in the air.
The figures within the photos were those they are familiar with…
Whether it’s Ping Yang or Su Hao, they watched this scene in excitement. They had been looking forward to this for so long. Finally, will they be back?
“Activate!”
Boom!
The space force vibrated.
Ping Yang pointed at an empty space.
A few fissures appeared in those photos. As the space force expanded, a terrifying bright light shone, causing everyone’s eyes to close. Vaguely, one could see those several familiar figures gradually recovering.
Su Hao’s heart felt warm while revealing a smile of relief.
“Long time no see, my friends.”
