"Wanda, listen to me. I love you. Have you forgotten the wonderful memories of our wild and unrestrained passion last night?"
"Get out! Get out now, I never want to see you again."
Zhang Xuan wanted to explain, but it was useless. The current Wanda was like a lioness, injured and unable to move, yet full of imposing fury.
The moment Zhang Xuan backed out of the room, Natasha Romanoff, standing outside the door, greeted him with sarcasm.
"Oh my, oh my~ If I hadn't returned from my business trip, were you planning to become a Time Management Master, dear Darling?"
Natasha Romanoff closed the distance between them, pressing herself against Zhang Xuan, causing the pillow he was holding to deform. But Zhang Xuan didn't dare move an inch.
Feeling the cold blade against his groin, no man would dare move.
One wrong step leads to eternal regret.
(⃔っ¯͒﹏¯͒c) "dear, you need to calm down. If your hand slips, the happiness of your entire life will be cut in half."
"Oh? Even like this, you're still so tough. Today isn't even over yet, and you're already thinking about the rest of your life?"
Zhang Xuan forced a smile (⌒ㅂ⌒;): "Well, a man has to have some backbone. I can't live off a woman forever, right?"
Natasha Romanoff dropped her smile and coldly placed the blade on his leg. The chilling sensation immediately sent Zhang Xuan into survival mode.
"You now have two choices."
"First, cut it off. The three of us will owe nothing to each other."
"I choose two, I choose two!" Zhang Xuan immediately blurted out.
Hearing this, Wanda, inside the room, threw something—it wasn't clear what—against the door.
"Zhang Xuan, you bastard! You choose her over me? Just let her cut it off! Wouldn't that mean you could be with me then!" (The '1' is intentional)
Zhang Xuan: (̿▀beneficial▀ ̿‧̣̥̇)̄, It's easy for you to say! I don't even have a happy brand blade, how am I supposed to cut it? If I cut it off, do you want me to play the role of an impotent husband afterward? (The '1' is intentional)
Hearing Wanda's shouts from inside, Natasha Romanoff burst out laughing.
"Fine, since you chose option two, I'll just leave."
Zhang Xuan: Huh? (๑•̌ࡇ•̑๑)ˀ̣ˀ̣
"You know my heart. I can't have children, and I can't give you a complete marriage. So I can only wish you happiness. Cherish this girl well. She must be very angry right now, meeting a scumbag like you for her first time."
As Natasha Romanoff said this, her eyes reddened, and she turned to leave.
"Didn't you feel pain too? This is our first relationship as well."
Zhang Xuan grabbed Natasha Romanoff.
"You know... so I wish you happiness."
As Natasha Romanoff spoke, tears welled up in the corners of her eyes. After all, she was still a 19-year-old girl.
What man wouldn't feel heartbroken seeing the young, fresh Black Widow looking like this?
Zhang Xuan's expression hardened, as if he had made a decision that would lead to the sacrifice of billions of lives in the world.
"Today, neither of you is leaving."
"My silly girl, how could I let you leave?"
Natasha Romanoff struggled to break free from Zhang Xuan's embrace, but given her physical fitness, how could she possibly shake off Zhang Xuan, who possessed the Steel Kidney Body?
He pulled Natasha Romanoff into his arms, picked her up, and kicked open the bedroom door.
Wanda had initially thought this bastard was coming in to comfort her, but she didn't expect him to walk in holding the 'main mistress.'
Furious, Wanda grabbed a pillow nearby and hurled it at Zhang Xuan.
Zhang Xuan didn't dodge. He grinned sinisterly and said, "Today, no one is walking out of this room alive. Heheheh—"

After a night with Zhang Xuan, Natasha Romanoff and Wanda couldn't take any more. They eventually swore to Stan Lee that they would forever be loyal to their Master.
Far away in 616, the Old Man watched the passing herd of black and white cows and felt a strange sensation, as if he had been stepped on.
"What is this feeling? How strange. Dears~ Let's wear this outfit tonight."
"Aiya~ You're annoying. I'm just a little bit bigger, and you want me to wear this black and white pattern? Even if I wear it, you won't have anything to drink."
"Tonight, I bought the same style outfit as Captain America~"
The old man smirked: "Then tonight, I'll dress up as Bucky Barnes."
..."You dare roll your eyes at me? Neither of you is leaving this room tonight."
The two women, dazed, nodded weakly.
Ring, ring, ring—
The phone rang. Zhang Xuan picked up NatashaRomanoff's phone; Natasha Romanoff, having just undergone'severe interrogation,' was in no state to answer.
"'Black Trust Barrier Anti-Social Personality'—this note must be for Black Egg, right?"
"Wei?" Zhang Xuan answered the phone with a Chinese greeting.
"A Huaxia person? What did you do to Natasha?" The voice on the other end sounded agitated.
Zhang Xuan recognized the voice instantly: it was Nick Fury.
"I am your wild daddy, the trash your mom didn't like. Natasha is mine. If you call her again to harass her, you'll be waiting for the whip. Son of a Bitch."
Zhang Xuan spoke Chinese for everything except the last sentence. He hung up and blocked Black Egg to prevent him from interrupting his 'interrogation.'
Nick Fury was furious. He hadn't understood a single word of the Chinese, but he had understood the last sentence.
He! Nick Fury! Director of the Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division! Had been cursed at!
"Hill, find me an Agent who speaks Chinese! Translate it for me, translate it!"
Agent Hill rubbed the pressure points behind her ears to relieve the pain caused by the sound in her headset, which resembled a chimpanzee's screech.
Agent Hill started looking for an Agent who spoke Chinese, but she couldn't find one!
Previously, the Director—that paranoid individual with trust issues—had purged all Chinese-speaking personnel to cooperate with the President. Consequently, the Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division currently had no one who spoke Chinese.
She hadn't realized this before, but now it was clear they needed to recruit some Chinese-speaking Agents.
HYDRA: Great! We've managed to plant another batch of people.
Agent Hill suddenly remembered an intern list she had seen earlier. It seemed one of the Agents had listed Chinese as a special skill on their resume.
She found the intern's resume and placed a call.
Zhang Xuan, who was preparing a nourishing meal for his two 'prisoners,' heard his phone ring and answered immediately.
"Wei?"
Hearing that unique greeting, Hill knew she had found the right person.
"Agent Zhang Xuan, please report to headquarters immediately. There is a new mission."
Zhang Xuan refused without hesitation: "I refuse. I'm taking the day off, and I'm currently with my girlfriends, hmm~ you understand?"
After speaking, he slapped his own butt, producing a crisp sound.
Hill rubbed her forehead: "Alright, nine tomorrow morning, come to my office."
"No problem, my beautiful, kind, generous, wise, and undressing Agent Hill."
Agent Hill listened to Zhang Xuan's Chinese flattery. Although she didn't understand it, she found it very pleasing; she knew that some Chinese 'compressed packages' were indeed beautiful.
Zhang Xuan put his phone aside and placed the Stir-fried Beef with Yellow Peppers, Flavorful Eggplant, and Cauliflower Stir-fried with Meat onto the table.
Then he carried in the lukewarm rice porridge and fed the two women mouth-to-mouth.
The two women, still groaning, instinctively ate a lot. Wanda, being more heavily 'injured,' still tried to snatch food from Natasha Romanoff, but Zhang Xuan stopped her and personally fed Wanda some sticky rice porridge... Now relaxed, Zhang Xuan lay on the dry bed, Wanda on his left and Natasha Romanoff on his right, and began checking the system.
[Daily Check-in System]
[Daily Check-in Complete. Strength +1]
Zhang Xuan opened the system panel and began checking his various stats.
[Host: Zhang Xuan]
[Skills: None]
[Physique: Steel Kidney Body (dddd)]
[Weapons: Tactical Goggles (Lock-on Version), Infinite Ammo Desert Eagle]
[Items: None]
Strength: 20
Speed: 12
Spirit: 15
[The limit for a normal person's stats is 10]
"After 10 points, every point of Strength adds one ton of power, and corresponding physical fitness increases. Speed increases less, and I haven't seen much pattern there. Spirit must be increased; there are too many mind control abilities out there, so I definitely need to invest in it."
"Time to sleep. Let's do some loving things before bed."
Early the next morning, Zhang Xuan rode his bicycle ten kilometers to the Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division headquarters—the Triskelion Building—for work.
"Good morning, beautiful Officer. What mission do you have for me today?"
Agent Hill didn't even look up and immediately banished Zhang Xuan: "Go find the Director. He has something he needs you for."
"Fine. I didn't expect to end up working for a black species."
"Watch your language. Racial discrimination is prohibited in the Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division."
Hill reminded Zhang Xuan to mind his words.
"Understood. I won't say that in front of the evil black forces, lest I provoke their fragile hearts."
Zhang Xuan knocked loudly on Nick Fury's door.
"Agent Zhang Xuan, next time you can ring the doorbell. It works better. This door is very sturdy, and very expensive."
Zhang Xuan curled his lip, completely unwilling to deal with this person with trust issues, but he endured it for the sake of joining HYDRA and avoiding a few years of detours.
He pulled up a chair and sat opposite Nick Fury: "Alright, tell me, why did you call me here?"
"I am your superior. Is this how you treat your superior?" Nick Fury's dark face showed suppressed rage.
"This is the U.S. Even when working, I am free. Hurry up and tell me what the matter is. I'm very busy; I still need to go do a mission with the naturally beautiful, graceful, charming, elegant, and wise Agent Hill."
Nick Fury thought: Sure enough, Huaxia people should be purged. It's the Japs and the Koreans who are obedient; they don't even fight back when beaten or scolded.
Nick Fury was getting angrier because he realized Zhang Xuan's voice and tone were very similar to the person who answered Natasha Romanoff's phone yesterday.
"Translate this passage."
Zhang Xuan looked at the desk, which was entirely covered in screens, and had only one thought: steal it. Why should someone with a dark, anti-social personality like you have this, while the common people are still using flip phones?
He clicked play and heard the familiar voice and the familiar words.
"Hiss, let me listen again."
Zhang Xuan listened again, then sat in the office chair and thought for two seconds.
"What? Is the Chinese difficult to translate?" Nick Furysaw Zhang Xuan's thoughtful expression and assumed it was a difficult-to-translate four-character Chinese 'compressed package.'
Everyone knows the nightmare of United Nationstranslators: the Chinese 'compressed package.'
"It's not difficult. Are you sure you want me to translate it?"
"Of course. Hurry up and translate it for me. Our excellent Agent went missing in this person's hands."
Zhang Xuan straightened his clothes, cleared his throat, stood up, and started cursing immediately.
"I am your wild daddy, the trash your mom didn't like. Natasha is mine. If you call her again to harass her, you'll be waiting for the whip. Son of a Bitch."
This time, Zhang Xuan delivered the English version. Nick Fury seemed so provoked that his dark face looked like it was dripping water.
"Director, I've finished the translation. If you don't believe me, you can find someone else to translate it."
Zhang Xuan sat down, scratched his head, and felt completely relaxed.
"Agent Zhang Xuan, how is Agent Natasha Romanoff? Natasha must have been very happy last night, right? She couldn't even answer the phone."
Zhang Xuan: ୧(⌒ ̫ ⌒)
"Ahaha, Director, you shouldn't speak such plain truth! How could I possibly play games with a gorgeous woman like Agent Natasha Romanoff and other beautiful girls?"
Nick Fury: (ꐦʘ̆beneficialʘ̆ꐦ) You weren't just with Natasha? There was another beautiful girl?
Jealousy made Black Egg look hideous.
"Agent Zhang Xuan, I regret to inform you that your internship performance is unsatisfactory. You may now go pack your things."
Zhang Xuan stood up, turned around, and disappeared at the doorway.
Nick Fury rubbed his forehead, only to see a head suddenly appear in the doorway. "Even if you beg me, I won't..."
Before Nick Fury finished speaking, Zhang Xuan blurted out a long sentence.
"Trust-issue, emotionally deprived person who was unloved since childhood, go eat shit. Natasha also quit. Son of a Bitch."
(ꐦ￣dish￣)convex
He thoughtfully included Natasha's happy finger, allowing that bastard to truly benefit.
Chapter 2: House Grudge Special Effects
Zhang Xuan ran directly out of the Triskelion. As expected, Nick Fury did not chase him, likely waiting to deal with him later.
He left the Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division safely, though it was a pity he didn't get to say goodbye to Agent Hill.
He didn't expect Nick Fury to be so petty; just for exposing his abandoned childhood, he actually fired him.
He thought he would just be suppressed, then naturally be accepted by HYDRA, skip a few tens of thousands of words of the process, and finally become one of the snake heads.
"Pity, pity. I'll go home, follow the example of my seniors, open a small shop, and take on various commissions."
Back home, Zhang Xuan saw the millet porridge in the living room that he had worked hard all morning to make with a pressure cooker.
"You're all awake? There's still some sour and spicy dried radish in the fridge, I'll go get it."
The two women glanced at each other and continued drinking their porridge awkwardly.
Zhang Xuan brought a large bowl of dried radish. Wandaand Natasha took a little into their own bowls, followed by one spoonful after another of rapid chewing.
"From now on, we're family. You two should interact more; you'll be sisters sharing a bed in the future."
"Shut up. Eat." Natasha tried to strike Zhang Xuanfiercely, but he dodged it.
Wanda remained silent, just lowering her head to eat.
After brunch was finished, Natasha got dressed and was about to head out.
"Don't go to work today, take the day off. Nick Fury knows about us, and I've been fired. Work with me from now on."
Natasha turned her head, looking at Zhang Xuan with a complex expression—one of doubt and shock.
"Even so, what happened between us shouldn't lead to you directly leaving the Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division. Speak, what exactly did you do?"
Zhang Xuan leaned close to Natasha and smiled faintly: "Don't you know what I did last night?"
Hearing this, Natasha blushed and pushed Zhang Xuanaway: "You'd better not have done anything, or I'll give you a piece of my mind when I get back."
Zhang Xuan hugged Natasha as she was about to leave and proactively gave her a parting kiss.
Natasha wiped the remaining silver threads from her lips: "I'll show you tonight."
After seeing Natasha off, Zhang Xuan turned back to look at Wanda, who had been peeking.
Spotted by Zhang Xuan, Wanda, with her legs feeling weak, carried hot water back to her room; Zhang Xuaneven heard the sound of the door locking.
Helpless, Zhang Xuan went to the 'torture room' from last night and put the blood-stained bedding into the washing machine.
"Wanda, remember to take the bedding from the washing machine to the backyard to dry later."
The backyard was a small courtyard Zhang Xuan had bought; he had fenced it in so it couldn't be seen from the outside, making it suitable for drying sheets.
"Wanda?"
"Ugh~ I heard you."
Hearing Wanda's reply, Zhang Xuan took a large bowl of dried radish and went out as well. He wanted to visit the neighbor's house nearby to check-in, so he brought some dried radish as a gift.
"Ding-dong—"
Zhang Xuan rang the doorbell, and the door opened quickly.
"Brother Zhang Xuan, you're here?"
Zhang Xuan rubbed little Peter's head and handed the dried radish to him.
"Take it inside, remember to put it in the fridge."
"Thank you, Brother Zhang Xuan."
Watching little Peter go to the kitchen, Zhang Xuansilently thought: Check-in.
[Check-in successful. Obtained Killing Intent Perception.]
Zhang Xuan: Happy, I finally obtained a skill.
The previous items like the tactical goggles and desert eagle were all obtained by checking in at S.H.I.E.L.D.After all, he had been in this World for less than a month, so the number of check-ins wasn't many.
Just as Zhang Xuan had walked a few steps, he heard a familiar voice calling him and stopped.
"Zhang Xuan, wait a moment."
Zhang Xuan saw Mei run out of the room, drenched in sweat. He highly suspected Mei had just been performing some forbidden magic.
(Suggestion: imagine a younger Mei in your mind, then evolve into a manga version, like the ones from Raikaiken, smirk)
"Mei, what's up?"
He saw Mei wearing sexy, tight-fitting jeans and a simple crop top, looking conflicted.
"Zhang Xuan, thank you for your help during this time. I really can't think of how to repay you, so please take this."
After saying that, Mei took out a pack of three pills, with only one pill per blister, and handed them to Zhang Xuan.
Zhang Xuan took them awkwardly and coughed twice: "Was the sound... that loud?"
Mei's face turned a bit red: "It... it was okay. Little Petergoes to sleep very early."
Zhang Xuan: (⌒ㅂ⌒ᄅ)̀ "Ahaha... What time does Petersleep? I'll try to be later."
"Around nine o'clock."
"Okay, I'll try to be later." Zhang Xuan chose to change the subject: "By the way, Mei, have you found a job? If you don't have a good one, you can come to my place. I'm planning to open a small shop to take on commissions. I'm still missing a receptionist. 6,000 a month."
Mei originally wanted to refuse, but hearing 6,000 dollars, she was indeed tempted.
Mei, in her thirties, looked a bit bashful like a young girl at this moment.
"Is it really okay?" Mei asked with some uncertainty, her eyes full of expectation.
If she had this job, she wouldn't need to work two jobs every day. Raising a child alone was very hard.
Zhang Xuan nodded with a smile, "Of course. And the shop won't be too busy. You'll just be responsible for commissions, registering information, and then reporting to me."
Mei bit her lip and finally nodded, "Then I'll give it a try. Thank you, Zhang Xuan."
Zhang Xuan patted her shoulder, "You're welcome. If it weren't for you, I don't know how long it would've taken to find such a trustworthy and excellent employee."
In the afternoon, Zhang Xuan found a storefront for rent across from Stark Tower and rented it immediately. The rent was a bit expensive, 30,000 dollars a month for only 30 square meters.
He paid a 30,000 deposit on the spot. After the landlord returns the day after tomorrow, he'll pay the remaining 330,000 dollars.
Zhang Xuan felt a bit of a sting; it was the first time in his life spending so much money.
"I'll have to take a walk through Hell's Kitchen tonight. Hopefully, I can catch a big fish in the first net. Otherwise, I'll have to go to a second place."
Zhang Xuan's current house in Queens was paid for with cash taken from a certain gang's vault in Hell's Kitchen; now he was going to 'withdraw' more.
Zhang Xuan didn't plan to go back; he'd find a place to rest. Driving back and forth in traffic was a hassle. He called the landline at home.
"Wanda, I have things to do tonight and won't be back. If you want to eat, call the number for the Chinese restaurant on the coffee table and have them deliver a couple of dishes."
"Mm." Wanda smiled playfully, "You're not afraid of Natasha's revenge tonight, are you? So you don't dare come back?"
Zhang Xuan said arrogantly: "Me, afraid? Use less of that safflower oil from my medicine chest. Tomorrow night, I'll leave you both utterly defeated."
"Alright, I won't be as weak and at your mercy as the first time."
Hanging up, the smile on Zhang Xuan's face was uncontrollable. He really hoped Wanda would use less safflower oil; rubbing that on her arms should be quite stimulating.
Night, a base of an unknown small gang in Hell's Kitchen.
Zhang Xuan turned off his phone, refusing to answer the calls Wanda had been making all day.
Dressed in all black, Zhang Xuan turned on his tactical goggles. For two minutes, the desert eagle fired continuously. All the criminals in the small building were dealt with.
He released a well-built black woman imprisoned in a cage. She thanked him and left. Zhang Xuan searched for cash in the base.
Phones, necklaces, US dollars—he took everything he could. He'd just find a place to sell them. It was Hell's Kitchen; this happened often, and many were used to it.
"260,000 in cash? Not enough. I need at least 400,000."
Zhang Xuan stashed the items. Once the tactical gogglesfinished recharging an hour later, he observed until 3 AM. He followed a group of black thugs selling 'flour' to their base.
Confirming they were targets for sweeping away evil, Zhang Xuan turned on his tactical goggles again—forbidden aimbot magic.
"These black thugs are just like me when I play on the African server, taken out with two headshots."
"Good harvest, adds up to 500,000."
Zhang Xuan returned to the stash, walked through the sewers, and exited near Stark Tower.
He wanted to sign in at Stark Tower.
[Sign-in successful. Obtained coordinates of the Destitute Stark.]
The system prompt finished, and a string of coordinates appeared in Zhang Xuan's mind.
"Hmm? Has Tony been kidnapped already? It wasn't in the news."
Zhang Xuan rested in his shelter, destroyed his clothes, and then it was the next morning.
Waking up again, it was already afternoon.
Returning to his house in Queens, he felt a shocking amount of anger and resentment inside, almost forming a red mist around the house.
Scared to approach, Zhang Xuan settled for the next best thing and decided to take refuge at Mei's house.
Lucky, little Peter opened the door after he knocked.
"Peter, why didn't you go to school today? Did Mei go to work?"
Zhang Xuan followed little Peter inside.
"My school has no classes this afternoon. Aunt Mei dropped me off and went to work."
"I'll treat you to dinner tonight. In return, I want to rest here for a day. How does that deal sound?"
"No problem, but you can only rest here during the day, not at night," eight-year-old Peter agreed but set a condition.
"Of course. We'll wait for Mei to come back. In the meantime, let's play a game. I know a new one, 'Underground City and Pretty Girls'."
Zhang Xuan played Underground City with little Peter all afternoon, rescued several elven beauties, reached level 14, and eliminated many Goblins.
The bell at the door rang. Zhang Xuan stood up to greet Mei.
"Welcome home. I'm taking refuge here for a bit, you don't mind, do you?"
Mei was surprised and delighted; she didn't expect Zhang Xuan to be at her house.
"I didn't expect you to be here. If I'd known, I would have bought some other groceries to treat you properly."
"No need for that, we're not strangers." Zhang Xuan went to the kitchen and took out the food ordered from the Chinese restaurant, "Let's eat this tonight. If you want lettuce, I can stir-fry it for you."
"This is too..."
Mei wanted to say something, but Zhang Xuaninterrupted.
"Don't be polite, it's just a meal. You can treat me later."
Mei tucked her hair behind her ear and then asked: "Zhang Xuan, what's this 'refuge' thing? Is it because of the red mist around your house?"
Zhang Xuan was stunned: "Red mist? Mei, you saw the red mist too?"
Mei nodded certainly: "There's been a bit of wispy red mist around your house. Didn't you know?"
"Mei, you and Peter eat first. I have to go back."
Zhang Xuan ran out hurriedly, before Mei could stop him to ask more.
But Zhang Xuan, who had just run out, came back.
"Mei, that's a cold dish, no need to heat it. Also..." Zhang Xuan leaned into Mei's ear and whispered: "Have little Peter sleep early tonight. There's a situation on my end."
After saying that, Zhang Xuan ran out like a gust of wind, leaving Mei with a racing heart from his presence.
"Aunt Mei, what did Brother Zhang Xuan say to you?" Little Peter saw them whispering and was curious.
"Parker, Brother Zhang Xuan has things to do tonight. Let's eat. We should thank him properly later."
...At this time, Zhang Xuan stood outside his house, shocked by the mist.
"I thought the black and red before were just 'grudge special effects' only I could see. I didn't expect it to be Chaos Magic."
"Go in? Or not?"
"If I go in, I might be torn apart by Wanda, right? Although it's probably just my clothes being torn."
"Hell, I have to face it sooner or later. Better to get it over with."
"Just do it. Like the female lead returning to the past—the male lead gets the benefits. Anyway, I'm the one who enjoys it. Let's go."
Chapter 3: The Price of Seeking Death
Zhang Xuan had just opened the door a crack when it was instantly flung open by immense force, slamming against the wall with a loud "Clang!"
Immediately afterward, Zhang Xuan felt a force pushing him into the room, but despite its power, he managed to steady himself.
He swallowed hard, closed his eyes, and took a deep breath where he stood.
When he opened his eyes again, his gaze was incredibly resolute.
Turn around! Run!
If I don't run now, I'm an idiot. It's clear Wanda is currently at her peak fury. I should definitely go to the Middle Eastto take refuge and, while I'm at it, rescue Tony Stark.
I'll return once Wanda has cooled down significantly; then, she'll only have a small handle on me. If I go in now, she'll use that handle to tear me apart.
Although Zhang Xuan was incredibly fast—his instantaneous burst of speed could overturn a small car.
But Chaos Magic was not to be underestimated. The chaotic energy spilling out around the house instantly converged on Zhang Xuan, firmly restraining him.
Zhang Xuan felt his feet lift off the ground and recalled the scene of Thanos fighting the Scarlet Witch.
It was the scene where Wanda from the Avengers ripped Thanos apart, not any other movie. Don't get the context wrong.
Now, Zhang Xuan felt like he was Thanos, restrained mid-air by Wanda, completely powerless to fight back.
Zhang Xuan's body was dragged into the room, followed by agonizing screams.
The furious Wanda held a red glass bottle labeled with the characters "safflower" (safflower) and applied a full, lethal dose of safflower oil to Zhang Xuan.
Zhang Xuan also saw Natasha inside the room, bound by crimson energy tentacles, enduring the same fiery, burning sensation of the safflower oil.
Zhang Xuan recognized the look Natasha gave him, and the two began communicating through their eyes.
Natasha: (ಥmouthಥ✽) You bastard, what exactly did you do to Wanda? Why is she so angry?
Zhang Xuan: (´◔ ₃ ◔`) I... I don't know. Wait, I didn't do anything.
Zhang Xuan adamantly denied it. This was Wandapunishing him and dragging Natasha into it. If Natashaalso decided to turn against him, he would be attacked from front and back.
Wait? Being attacked from both sides by these two doesn't sound so bad. It might even be quite comfortable, right?
"dear, do you really love her more? Even now, you're still exchanging glances."
Wanda smiled wickedly, reaching out to stroke Zhang Xuan's neck.
Zhang Xuan wanted to speak, but he was muted and couldn't say a word.
"Since you like her so much, I'll step aside. The two of you can 'enjoy yourselves' in the room."
Zhang Xuan and Natasha stared at Wanda in shock.
Their eyes seemed to say: No way? Like this, right now? Natasha will die!
Natasha realized her dangerous predicament and began struggling frantically.
But it was all in vain. The two of them were left in the room. Wanda floated out, and the Chaos Magic inside the room began operating according to Wanda's settings. The two were then manipulated by the Chaos Magic.
When Natasha tried to recall what happened afterward, she had no painful memory of that minute, yet every time she thought about it, her body instinctively shivered, but she just couldn't remember what had occurred.
Zhang Xuan only knew that the burning sensation of that bottle of safflower oil was more intense than the Sun.
The next morning, Zhang Xuan tiredly tried to get up, looked down, saw Wanda eating, and closed his eyes again, silently pulling the covers up and pretending to be a lifeless, immobile toy.
If Aunt Mei hadn't come knocking, Wanda might have kept Zhang Xuan as a speechless toy for the rest of his life, a souvenir for her.
Listening to Aunt Mei and Wanda talking downstairs, Zhang Xuan forced himself up, covered Wanda's food, and weakly headed downstairs.
"Aunt Mei, let's go check out the new store. I'll take you to familiarize yourself with the route."
Zhang Xuan grabbed Aunt Mei's arm and headed toward the garage.
Seeing this, Wanda followed, deciding that even though she hadn't finished eating, she couldn't let anyone else steal her food.
Catching Wanda's meaningful gaze, Zhang Xuan went upstairs and dragged Natasha down as well.
Although he didn't logically know what good this would do, facing Wanda alongside Natasha made Zhang Xuanfeel slightly less guilty.
Aunt Mei was pushed into the driver's seat by Zhang Xuan. He sat in the passenger seat, Wanda sat in the back, and Natasha lay across Wanda's lap.
"Aunt Mei, go to Stark Tower. Our store is near there. I need to sleep for a bit first."
Aunt Mei drove cautiously. This large Pickup Truck was quite expensive, and Aunt Mei was hesitant to step on the gas.
"You guys should buckle up," Aunt Mei reminded Zhang Xuan, then drove toward Stark Tower.
Neither Aunt Mei nor Natasha noticed the subtle change in Wanda's expression upon hearing "Stark Tower."
Zhang Xuan lowered his seat, lay down, and rested his head on Wanda's lap, gently taking hold of her small hand.
Zhang Xuan couldn't reveal yet that he knew about her feud with Tony; explaining that would be troublesome.
The slender, delicate hand was soft, and Zhang Xuanrather enjoyed holding it.
After Zhang Xuan took her hand, Wanda's mood improved significantly, and her angry, irritable feelings dissipated somewhat.
Because Aunt Mei drove slowly and there was traffic, it took 40 minutes to reach the bottom of Stark Tower.
Zhang Xuan and Natasha had excellent physical conditioning, after all, and they felt much more energetic after a quick nap.
After Wanda got out of the car and saw the lettering on Stark Tower—which reminded her of the missile she saw as a child—her breathing became rapid.
Zhang Xuan embraced Wanda from behind and turned her around.
"The shop is over here. Let's take a look. As the Boss Ladies, you should also check out how we should decorate."
Aunt Mei listened from the side, wearing a comical expression.
What did I just hear? Boss Ladies? Plural? Oh my, these young people are so wild. I'm getting old, getting old, can't keep up with the times.
Opening the shop door, they saw an empty room, and Zhang Xuan began explaining his ideas.
"This shop will be an agency that accepts various commissions."
"Including, but not limited to, hostage rescue, escort missions, fugitive apprehension, and security assignments."
"This is the front desk. Aunt Mei, this area will probably be your future workspace."
"Behind it are a bedroom and a lounge area. It's not a big space, but it's enough for resting. We'll buy the place next door later."
Natasha followed behind, interrupting only after Zhang Xuan finished speaking.
"dear, everything you said is right, but who will hire us? No one will look for a small, unknown company like yours."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Xuan snapped his fingers.
"As expected of you, my Natasha, my Agent Queen. You're absolutely right. That's why the first thing I need to do is build a reputation."
Wanda then asked, "But how will you make a name for yourself?"
Zhang Xuan pointed across the street at Stark Tower: "By rescuing the kidnapped Tony Stark, of course."
The three women looked behind them and saw the content displayed on the big screen.
Aunt Mei: "A bounty of 100 million U.S. dollars for rescuing Tony Stark?"
"A reward of 10 million for providing genuine leads?" Wanda sneered, "Truly worthy of a rich Arms Dealer."
Natasha frowned, thinking of the phone Wanda had pulverized last night.
It seems last night wasn't just lively for me; the whole World was lively.
Natasha and Wanda wanted to ask more questions, but Zhang Xuan stopped them.
"Let's not talk about this now. We'll go back. We can discuss any questions on the way."
Back in the car, Aunt Mei said to Zhang Xuan, "Zhang Xuan, are you really going to rescue Tony Stark? I think they just said Tony Stark went missing in Afghanistan."
"Of course, I have to rescue Tony Stark. After all, he's basically the Gold Standard for our agency. If we succeed in rescuing him, it will be a perfect start."
"But Afghanistan is very dangerous, you..."
"It's fine. I have a team. There's no need to be afraid once we get there."
"Later, we'll pick up Peter and go eat at a Chinese restaurant. Freshly stir-fried Chinese food is definitely better."
Wanda sat in the back seat, fiddling with her fingers, deep in thought.
Wanda: Should I go to Afghanistan myself to confirm Tony Stark's death?
Natasha, meanwhile, was thinking about matters concerning the Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division. She figured she would have to go to Afghanistan too, so why not just go with Zhang Xuan?
Natasha believed Zhang Xuan was confident he could find Tony Stark. Otherwise, based on her knowledge of him, Zhang Xuan wouldn't attempt something unless he was sure of success. He wouldn't play a game he wasn't sure he could win, let alone face cruel reality.
Zhang Xuan drove very fast, covering the 40-minute distance Aunt Mei took in just 20 minutes.
During a post-event interview, Zhang Xuan said: "I have a car full of protagonists, what do I have to fear? Even if Thanos stood in front of my car right now, he'd just be a Purple Potato Blocking the Road."
After picking up Peter, Zhang Xuan took the group to a Chinese restaurant for a meal, but the three women were preoccupied with their own thoughts and spoke little.
Only Zhang Xuan kept serving food to Peter, and the two ate very cheerfully.
Peter, influenced by Dynasty Warriors, was so touched he almost swore brotherhood with Zhang Xuan and recognized him as an older brother.
In Peter's words: "I've eaten more food in the last two days than I have in all these years combined."
Aunt Mei: Peter, you'll have to rely on yourself for cooking at home from now on. Aunt Mei is a remnant of the old era and isn't suited for the modern Chinese kitchen.
Peter: No problem, Aunt Mei. You remnants of the old era should rest. I, who am the Sun at eight or nine in the morning, will take over the entire kitchen of the United States.
After dropping Aunt Mei and Peter off at home, the three of them returned to their 'cozy' little home.
Zhang Xuan saw the cracked door at the entrance and couldn't help but shiver.
Natasha also glared hatefully at Zhang Xuan. Safflower Oil Sausage, do you know how I managed to swallow that last night? I was poisoned into unconsciousness in one minute.
Zhang Xuan tiptoed quietly behind the two women, hoping they would forget he existed.
Wanda, deep in thought, returned to her room, ignoring the two cautious people behind her.
Natasha quickly and precisely grabbed Zhang Xuan's ear, beginning her revenge for the spicy heat of the safflower oil from last night.
Zhang Xuan hadn't been paying attention and, having his ear grabbed, was dragged all the way to the sofa.
"Tell me quickly, what exactly did you do? Why does Wanda have that strange ability, and what was that... that red bottle?"
With his ear and his vulnerability seized, Zhang Xuancould only tell the truth.
After hearing the explanation, Natasha felt she had been completely dragged into this, suffering an undeserved calamity. She regretted coming back yesterday.
"I need to take Wanda to the Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division for a physical examination. The energy inside her is too dangerous and too powerful. We can't let Wandacontinue like this; it might harm her."
Zhang Xuan stared at Natasha with dead fish eyes: "Why don't you send me to the Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division for dissection too? I'm also too strong to be a normal person."
Prompted by Zhang Xuan, Natasha remembered the events of the day before yesterday: she had been grabbed by Zhang Xuan and couldn't break free. Given her strength, this was highly unusual.
"Xuan, why is your strength so great? And why are you... so powerful?" Natasha also asked some more private questions.
Zhang Xuan raised an eyebrow and countered, "Then why is your strength so great? Most men shouldn't be stronger than you."
"I've been injected with certain drugs that enhance my physical capabilities. What about you?"
Natasha directly stated the reason for her strength, her eyes filled with anticipation and concern for Zhang Xuan, wanting an answer that would put her mind at ease.
Chapter 4: Leisurely Vacation Time
Zhang Xuan gave the concerned Natasha a light kiss. "I didn't inject any drugs. But there is a surge of energy in my body that I can slowly absorb to gradually become stronger. Look."
Natasha looked at the nightstand Zhang Xuan had crushed with his bare hands in disbelief. Then, blushing, she whispered the next question into his ear.
Zhang Xuan laughed triumphantly upon hearing it. "No, that's because I'm innately gifted. It might have a slight effect, but it mostly relies on talent. Even if I can't go all the way in, you're still my wife, and I'll find a way to heal you. But as I said, it will take some time."
Natasha was very excited to hear this. "Zhang Xuan, if you can make me a whole woman, I'll even help you pursue other wives if you want them."
Zhang Xuan smiled confidently. "It's definitely not a problem, but it will indeed take a few years."
Hearing Zhang Xuan's affirmative answer, Natashaignored the sensitivity period after using the safflower oiland wanted to have some dessert puffs.
Zhang Xuan stopped her. Although he wanted to as well, he stopped Natasha and pointed toward Wanda's room.
"Wanda seems a bit off today. I'm going to go check on her."
Natasha rolled her eyes. "Isn't it your fault? You actually tricked Wanda into using safflower oil to reduce the swelling."
Zhang Xuan slapped the plump bottom of Natasha, who was sitting on him.
"It's not about that. When Stark Tower was mentioned, Wanda's emotions became unstable. She seemed... flustered and hateful?"
Natasha frowned. "I curiously looked through Wanda's files today, but I didn't find any grudge between her, her brother, and Stark Industries."
Zhang Xuan pretended not to know. "I'll go upstairs and check. You should get some good rest today too. I promise to make you whole in a few years."
"If you can't handle it, you can call me up. I am a Level 6 Agent, my dear Level 1 Agent. Mwah~"
Zhang Xuan knocked and entered Wanda's room, only to see her sitting on the bed wiping away tears.
Seeing such a beautiful wife crying, Zhang Xuan felt heartbroken. When such a pure yet seductive and sweet girl cries, what man wouldn't feel distressed?
"Wanda, tell me, do you have a grudge against Stark Industries or Tony Stark?"
Zhang Xuan gently hugged Wanda from behind and then pulled her onto his lap. Wanda cooperated, turning around to lie against him.
As Wanda lay softly and fragrantly against him, Zhang Xuan used all his willpower to suppress his urges and got to the point of the conversation.
"Wanda, if there's anything, tell your husband. If you have a grudge against Stark Industries, I'll take you to get revenge."
Wanda wiped her tears and then spoke about her childhood experiences.
Zhang Xuan listened to Wanda recount her painful childhood. Although he already knew, he still held her tightly after hearing it.
"Wanda, let's go to Afghanistan and rescue Tony Stark."
Wanda, who had been sobbing, paused upon hearing Zhang Xuan's words, and faint red light began to emanate from her body.
"Wanda, wait for me to finish. Listen to me."
Hearing Zhang Xuan's words, Wanda suppressed her temper and lay back on his chest.
"Tell me then. If I'm not satisfied, I'll...!"
With one side of her face pressed against Zhang Xuan, Wanda's speech was a bit muffled, but it didn't stop her from grabbing the man's weakness.
Zhang Xuan sensed the warmth and the faint red light on his rib and swallowed hard before saying:
"We can kidnap Tony Stark after rescuing him, interrogate him for everything he knows, and expose his black-market deals to the public."
"From now on, we'll keep him in a cage every day and bring him out for a couple of whip lashes whenever we feel like it."
"And if you like, you can personally pluck his lychees. When you get tired of him, we'll take him apart and mail him to his relatives—though he doesn't seem to have any left. We can mail his fingers and arms to his personal butler instead."
"Killing is the lowest form of revenge. Letting him experience pain, understand pain, and become pain—that is true revenge."
Wanda nodded after hearing this, agreeing with Zhang Xuan's suggestion, and her hand unconsciously tightened its grip.
"Oh, oh, oh! My rib! Wanda, take it easy!"
Wanda hurriedly let go and checked the rib she had been gripping tightly. She sighed in relief when she saw nothing was wrong.
"Wanda, you almost ruined your future happiness. Hurry up and apologize to him."
Wanda gave a sweet smile. "Then I'm truly sorry, my dearhusband."
When Wanda smiled, Zhang Xuan's heart skipped a beat, and even his ribs trembled along with it.
Downstairs, Natasha felt a familiar surge of energy affect her, and then she appeared before the bed where Wandaand Zhang Xuan were pressed tightly together.
Wanda waved her hand, and the bedroom door closed.
Mei opened the window and looked at the time in disbelief.
"Oh my god, they've only been back for less than half an hour. How did they start so quickly?"
"Parker, you can't sleep with the window open tonight. There are a lot of bugs outside."
...Noon.
Zhang Xuan and Mei went to the office, signed the contract with the landlord, and then found a renovation company. They decided on the general style that same day and left Mei in charge of supervision.
On the way, he checked in at Stark Tower.
[Today's check-in successful. Obtained: jericho missile * 1]
That evening, Zhang Xuan, Wanda, and Natasha boarded a plane to Afghanistan.
Natasha was still a semi-Agent of the Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division, and she happened to be going to Afghanistan to look for Tony as well.
Now that Natasha knew she could repair her body and become a mother again, her heart was no longer with the Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division. Despite Nick Fury's repeated urgings, she still chose to go to Afghanistan with Zhang Xuan.
Zhang Xuan's plane was a super-large passenger jet bound for Dubai. He had booked tickets for a Sky Residence—a one-bedroom, one-living room, one-bathroom suite. The three of them could manage by squeezing in together; they could even sleep sandwich style.
It was a flight of over ten hours, and Zhang Xuan didn't want to spend it miserably. Anyway, the money wasn't his. Once they found Tony Stark, wouldn't they have as much money as they wanted?
On the plane, Zhang Xuan and Natasha helped Wandafamiliarize herself with her Chaos Magic.
"Wanda, try to lift this plate and keep it floating steadily in mid-air."
The plate was lifted by Wanda, but it wasn't stable.
"Wanda, try to keep it as steady as possible. This is necessary training for controlling the energy in your body."
Zhang Xuan took a bite of food and then fed a bite to Wanda.
"Wanda, can you try to manipulate the energy with just your mind, without using your hands?"
"I'll try." Wanda withdrew her hands, but when they were halfway back, the plate began to shake violently.
"Xuan, I don't think I can do it. As soon as I put my hands down, the energy becomes unstable. I can't fully control it."
Zhang Xuan rubbed his chin. "Sit down and try to mobilize the energy. See how far you can go."
Wanda sat down and concentrated on using her Chaos Magic to lift the plate.
Zhang Xuan and Natasha watched the red energy drifting around the plate, shaking violently from time to time. It was easy to see what was happening.
Wanda clearly couldn't control this energy yet.
"Wanda, take it slow. Try to control a tiny bit of energy and make it move according to your thoughts as much as possible."
Natasha gave her a suggestion, telling Wanda to start by controlling a small amount of energy.
"Okay, I'll try."
Then, Wanda drew out a strand of red energy as thin as a hair and controlled it to drift around the room.
"Good. Wanda, continue to control it to perform some complex movements, then slowly increase the amount you control."
Zhang Xuan stuffed a dessert into Wanda's mouth, and she nodded with a muffled "mm-hmm."
Ten minutes later, Wanda was covered in sweat, and Zhang Xuan had her stop the practice.
Natasha asked concernedly, "Wanda, do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?"
"My body and head are a bit tired, but there are no other uncomfortable symptoms."
Zhang Xuan held a bottle of Water to Wanda's lips. "Rest for now. There's no rush."
Wanda nodded with her cheeks puffed out.
After all, this wasn't their own home, so Zhang Xuandidn't squeeze cream into the puffs here. It was definitely better to make puffs back at their own house.
Zhang Xuan wasn't in too much of a hurry. After arriving in Dubai, Natasha transferred to a flight to Afghanistan. After all, she was still an Agent of the Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division and had missions to perform.
Zhang Xuan took Wanda to play in Dubai for a week before preparing to go to Afghanistan. After all, he had to give Tony some time to research the arc reactor.
Upon arriving in Afghanistan, Zhang Xuan followed the information left by Natasha and drove away an Armored Vehicle from outside the airport—at least it could stop bullets.
Zhang Xuan drove straight toward the location of Tonyprovided by the system.
Wanda sat in the back seat practicing her Chaos Magic. Over the past few days, her control over magic had improved tremendously.
Chapter 5: Fierce Battle with Terrorists
[Suddenly realized, Tony has been missing for three months, but only spent the last 7 days building the armor.]
[It seems I arrived a bit early, but it doesn't matter much.]
That evening, Zhang Xuan arrived at the target location. Being democratic, Zhang Xuan asked for Wanda's advice.
Wanda: "I'll listen to you, Hubby. Whatever you say goes."
Zhang Xuan took out the desert eagle, smiled slightly, and elegantly chambered a round: "Alright then, in a moment I'll turn on auto-aim to clear the map, and you'll be responsible for blocking bullets for me."
(Don't cheat, don't cheat, I can't even extract with a knife run. Also, let school start already!!!)
Wanda followed nervously behind, mentally preparing herself.
After all, it might get a bit bloody in a moment.
Zhang Xuan grabbed her hand and said, "Don't worry, none of the people inside are clean, so don't feel burdened. With fewer of them around, more people will be saved.
Besides, tonight you probably just need to be a 'shield dog' for me."
With Zhang Xuan's comfort, Wanda felt a bit more at ease, but she was very dissatisfied with the name 'shield dog'.
"Bad guy, don't call me shield dog. Call me by my code name later—Scarlet."
Zhang Xuan checked the time; it was almost midnight. He chose to check in.
[Check-in successful. Obtained one jericho missile.]
Zhang Xuan waited until 12:00 and signed in again.
[Check-in successful. Obtained Imitation Ten Rings.]
Zhang Xuan: Oh? Obtaining fake Ten Rings at the fake Ten Rings Gang's place. Makes sense.
Zhang Xuan got out of the car to test the power and abilities of the Ten Rings.
The system thoughtfully gifted him a set of fist techniques to use with the Ten Rings.
Wanda watched Zhang Xuan outside the car. The Ten Rings were connected by energy and could be launched as weapons or whipped out like a lash. Zhang Xuancontrolled the Ten Rings to repeatedly smash gullies into the ground and fire them to shatter rocks.
"Wanda, look at my Five-Hit Lightning Whip. Isn't it cool?"
Wanda leaned on the car window and clapped: "Hubby, you're so cool. Hubby, where did this thing come from? I haven't seen you take it out before?"
Zhang Xuan put his hands on his hips and said proudly, "Just a little toy. You'll find more and more magical things on me in the future."
Wanda: "Oh~ you're so annoying~"
Zhang Xuan: (๑•̌～•̑), I suspect you're thinking of something dirty, but I won't say it.
Zhang Xuan tried to form a protective shield with the Ten Rings, but it couldn't be done.
Every time he swung the Ten Rings rapidly to form a shield, they would be flung away.
"It seems the imitation isn't successful enough. I can only use the Five-Hit Lightning Whip; I can't manage a shield."
System: (꒪ัbeneficial꒪ั*) If the person is incompetent, they blame the uneven road. I shouldn't have added 'Imitation'; without it, it would just be the Ten Rings.
With the boost from the Ten Rings and Wanda's support, Zhang Xuan was very confident about taking out the fake Ten Rings Gang and kidnapping Tony Stark.
A dark and windy night—perfect for murder and arson.
The two wore all-black clothes, even wrapping their hair, leaving only their eyes exposed.
They quietly crept toward the Terrorists' camp between the valleys, gradually approaching the valley.
Wanda's Chaos Magic could already knock people unconscious silently from over ten meters away, but she couldn't yet render everyone unconscious over a wide area.
Under the cover of night, Wanda and Zhang Xuan took out many Sentinels along the way, eventually sneaking onto the enemy's watchtower.
Zhang Xuan picked up an AK and other automatic rifles and climbed the watchtower with Wanda.
Zhang Xuan took out a grenade and threw it forcefully into the distance.
The grenade went off with a bang, and the Terroristsinside the camp ran out one after another, looking toward the source of the sound.
Listening to the gibberish below, Zhang Xuan put on his tactical goggles and began spraying with the AK.
A dozen people fell instantly, each taking two shots to the head.
Zhang Xuan quickly swapped guns and sprayed again, another large group of beasts falling.
At this moment, Zhang Xuan felt like that Godly Grandmaat the space Base who blew up two escorts with one shot.
He only needed to swap guns and reload; the rest was left to the tactical goggles.
After emptying over a hundred rounds, Zhang Xuanreleased the Ten Rings, using them to carry him and Wanda toward the cave where Tony was.
However, after entering the cave, things were a bit different from what Zhang Xuan expected.
Several surveillance screens showed the distressed sight of Tony Stark and Ethan hiding panic-stricken in a corner.
There were also three Terrorists in the surveillance room raising their guns to shoot Zhang Xuan.
With a wave of her Chaos Magic, Wanda sent the men flying.
Zhang Xuan conveniently pulled out the surveillance hard drive; this was a rare recording of a 'Beggar Version' Tony Stark.
Wanda put up a Chaos Magic shield over ten centimeters thick—no skill, just pure stats. Braving the gunfire from the Terrorists outside, she and Zhang Xuan moved all the way into another cave.
Zhang Xuan launched the Ten Rings to scout ahead, confirming no one was inside. The two entered, and with the Ten Rings on his arms, Zhang Xuan violently smashed open the heavy iron door where Tony was held.
The gunfire outside the cave stopped; they knew they couldn't hit the people inside and were preparing for a full assault.
Zhang Xuan walked to the corner of the room and saw Tony being held back by Ethan.
Ethan was slightly stunned to see Zhang Xuan's Oriental face.
Tony, on the other hand, wasn't polite at all: "Thank you very much, my friend. From now on, you just need to enjoy life. This is your reward for saving Tony Stark."
If Wanda weren't by his side, Zhang Xuan might have actually agreed.
Zhang Xuan squeezed Wanda's hand, signaling her to play along for now and get Tony Stark out safely before dealing with the rest.
Wanda agreed, but still unable to face Tony, she went back to the cave entrance to block the door.
"Let's go, Mr. Tony Stark. We still have plenty of Terrorists outside."
Zhang Xuan tried to pull Tony Stark, but Tony dodged him.
"Young man, wait a moment. I can't leave this thing here."
Tony walked to the workbench and set the blueprints for the Mark I on fire.
"How many of you came? Don't we need some shields to block? Where are your weapons?"
"By the way, do you have any cheeseburger? If so, I'm willing to pay a fortune for one. How about a million dollars each? Ethan, do you want a cheeseburger?"
"After we get out, I'm going to throw a massive party. I'll bring all the cover girls from the last two years; you'll be busy all night then."
Hearing this, Zhang Xuan couldn't help but reply, "Forget it. I don't like sharing in that regard. It makes me feel disgusted."
Tony said leisurely, "No one will share with you. If you can take those cover girls away, they're all yours. But thinking about it, that's impossible. How could you be more charming than me? No woman refuses an invitation to spend the night with Tony Stark."
Zhang Xuan wanted to laugh: "You'd better not say a word in a moment, or if she gets annoyed, she might chop you up. I won't stop her."
When Tony saw Wanda blocking the door with Chaos Magic at the cave entrance, his jaw dropped to the floor in shock.
Ethan looked much the same, though he was in better shape than Tony.
Ethan picked up Tony's chin and closed his mouth for him.
Tony said dryly, "Is that some kind of energy shield?"
Zhang Xuan smiled and raised his index finger: "Shh, quiet. It's just a little bit of magic."
"magic?! You're talking about magic in front of a great scientist? Watch me expose your tricks..."
Tony was about to step forward to check, but seeing Wanda's gaze, he obediently pulled back the foot he had just extended.
"I just..." Tony was once again locked in by Wanda's murderous gaze and stopped talking.
As Wanda's shield pushed forward, it also detonated several planted grenades.
Wanda released Scarlet energy to envelop the four of them and flew toward the car.
Seeing the people flying out, the Terrorists outside began emptying their magazines, and two RPGs were even fired at them.
Zhang Xuan didn't react in time to the first one, and it hit the four of them, but it was blocked by Wanda's Chaos Magic.
The second Rocket was destroyed mid-air by Zhang Xuanusing the Ten Rings.
Zhang Xuan then launched the Ten Rings in succession, destroying the RPGs and heavy machine guns.
Inside the Base, the bald terrorist leader watched this and ordered: "Prepare to launch the missiles. We must blow them to death."
Zhang Xuan, already a kilometer away, saw the missiles behind him constantly adjusting their aim and gave an evil smile.
"Wanda, land. I'm going to give them something big."
Wanda obediently landed, deactivated the chaotic energy surrounding them, and panted heavily.
Zhang Xuan took out the jericho missile from the system. With a few clicks on the user-friendly control panel, he had already locked onto the Terrorists' Base.
Zhang Xuan pressed the launch button without hesitation, and the missile flew out instantly.
The whole process took less than ten seconds.
Tony watched Zhang Xuan's sequence of actions in shock, dumbfounded, and began to self-reflect.
Why are the weapons I manufactured appearing in the Middle East, and in such large quantities? Are the U.S. military selling them secretly? But that's not right; the jericho missile was only just sold. How does Zhang Xuanalready have one?
Wait, where did this person get the missile from? There was nothing there just a moment ago. Is it a spatial pocket like in novels? Or is it really magic—a magic pocket?
Zhang Xuan ignored Tony's brainstorming and turned to hug Wanda.
It wasn't until the Impact of the jericho missile reached Tony's face that he stopped thinking.
Fortunately, Ethan tackled Tony; otherwise, being blown away by the shockwave might have left him black and blue.
As the dust settled, Zhang Xuan smiled knowingly at the valley he had leveled.
"As expected of you, Tony Stark. This weapon of yours is truly useful. We need to leave quickly."
Zhang Xuan and Wanda sat in the front seats, while Ethan and Tony sat in the back.
When Tony was brought into the car, he was still wondering what was going on—why Zhang Xuan could conjure weapons out of thin air, and why the latest weapon he developed would appear here.
The car drove for a long time before finally returning to the Afghanistan airport.
Natasha had already arranged everything. Now, she just needed to knock Tony and Ethan unconscious, put them in body bags, and transport them to the United States.
Tony was almost dying of suffocation along the way, but feeling the murderous intent constantly emanating from Wanda, he didn't dare say another word.
Arriving at the airport, Tony finally breathed a sigh of relief; he was finally back on his home turf.
