You are all bad women! Don't come over!

Shen Mochen dropped Xia Xuexu, who was completely bare, onto the ground. The moment he jumped out of the window, he used Han Muxue's superpower to reduce their gravity. Otherwise, even from the second floor, he would have been injured while carrying someone.

Xia Xuexu didn't scream; she realized what had happened and inwardly cursed Shen Xinyue a hundred times.

She trembled slightly in Shen Mochen's arms, a wave of fright passing through her, knowing she had narrowly escaped death.

The monster bird that had struck the hotel lay motionless in the ruins, with deep wounds on its body, apparently having been taken down mid-flight by a Buque.

"Up there!" she exclaimed, almost instinctively curling into Shen Mochen's embrace.

Another flying beast, nearly thirty feet long, dove towards them!

Shen Mochen noticed it too.

This time, from the rift emerged numerous flying beasts, the existence most loathed and troublesome for Buque!

They were not more aggressive than ordinary monsters, but their speed was infinitely faster, making them hard to hit and easy to get attacked by. The attacks of ordinary monsters were extremely lethal for flesh-and-blood Superpower Users!

"It's okay, don't be afraid."

A flash of red light passed through Shen Mochen's eyes; he tightly held Xia Xuexu with one hand and stretched out the other to block.

Almost instantly, the wind pressure kicked up by the beast enveloped them.

Xia Xuexu couldn't help but bite Shen Mochen's shoulder, shivering. But just as the monster's claws were about to touch Shen Mochen, an invisible wall blocked it! It slammed heavily against the invisible barrier, followed immediately by two more flying beasts!

"Return," Shen Mochen whispered.

In an instant, a powerful invisible force filled the space. A thunderous explosion erupted, and the monsters burst apart, even blasting a huge pit in the ground!

Shield Reflection, the superpower of the bold, black-skinned girl, Ran Linlin. It could defend and absorb the energy generated by others' attacks and return it.

The intensity of the return depended on the strength of the attack, and it could return up to 10,000 times the energy.

Using it for the first time, Shen Mochen hadn't grasped the scale well, and going all out resulted in the evaporating of the monsters' fur, blood, and even bones!

So powerful, no wonder he's a Transcendent… Shen Mochen sighed internally, looking at Xia Xuexu in his arms and then towards the closing rift.

"It's over."

Shen Mochen said softly, finding a relatively flat stone and gently setting Xia Xuexu down.

Xia Xuexu clasped her chest, staring straight at Shen Mochen.

Shen Mochen took off his shirt and covered her with it; the dawn broke in the distance, and sunlight finally shone again on the land.

Xia Xuexu stared at Shen Mochen's face in the morning light, seeing him uncovered for the first time in reality.

He was so handsome, many times more than he appeared in the videos!

Recalling the moment she was protected in his arms, Xia Xuexu's heart couldn't help but skip a beat, then began racing.

She wrapped herself in the clothing, still carrying his residual warmth.

"Sister, are you okay? Are you hurt?"

Seeing that she had wrapped herself tightly in her jacket, Shen Mochen finally faced her directly and asked softly.

Xia Xuexu shook her head, but seeing Shen Mochen looking her way, she suddenly felt shy and avoided his gaze, lowering her head. Noticing his bare feet injured by sand and stone, she quickly said with concern, "Are your feet okay?"

"It's just a minor injury, I'm fine," Shen Mochen smiled and shook his head, "You should call Sister Xia to let her know you're safe… oh never mind, no need, her phone is with me."

Xia Xuexu licked her lips, suddenly feeling extremely shy. She lowered her head and whispered, "Thank you."

"It's all right, it's all right, I'm glad I arrived just in time, otherwise if something had really happened to you, Sister Xia would never have forgiven me!" Shen Mochen said with a laugh.

Xia Xuexu's expression changed slightly as she muttered to herself, "Oh that's right, it's because of Qingrou..."

"They're here." Shen Mochen looked into the distance, where several figures had already appeared.

"I'm so sorry, it's really embarrassing that we let a few flying monsters escape... It's not entirely our fault, though, they're really hard to control! Plus, a lot of them appeared all at once, and without coordination, everyone was in a panic..." one of them explained hastily upon seeing Shen Mochen.

"It's okay, we understand," Shen Mochen said generously with a laugh.

Although he was annoyed, he now had to maintain his celebrity image.

Someone pointed at Xia Xuexu, "Is she also a comrade-in-arms?"

It was well known that Shen Mochen was a male Superpower User without combat abilities, so people naturally assumed that the one who had defeated the monsters was Xia Xuexu, who was with him.

Shen Mochen just laughed and did not explain, "Her clothes were ruined during the fight, please take her to get changed."

"No problem, no problem!" The girls were eager to show off in front of Shen Mochen.

Together, they managed to scrape together an outfit, even finding a pair of shoes for Shen Mochen to contribute.

"Hey, where's my older sister!" Xia Qingrou finally rushed over, anxious upon seeing Shen Mochen.

"Qingrou, I'm fine," Xia Xuexu slowly walked out, casting a lingering look at Shen Mochen, still wearing the jacket he had given her. "Thanks to him, I'm okay."

"Ahem, older sister, could you please return my jacket for now?"

Shen Mochen coughed, as other Superpower Users had given Xia Xuexu an undershirt, making the jacket nonessential for her now.

Xia Xuexu hesitated for a moment, then with a deep look, took off the jacket and returned it to Shen Mochen.

Hey, no, what's with that expression? You already have a shirt on, and I'm still bare-chested here! More and more people are arriving, and I should be a little conscious of my image!

Shen Mochen complained inwardly.

As he put on his clothes, the women who had been ogling his bare chest now displayed expressions of melancholy.

This perfect body hidden from view, truly disregarding the codes of manhood!

"Cough cough, come over here for a sec!" Xia Qingrou pulled Shen Mochen aside.

"This time you definitely can't hide your superpower, what do you plan to do?"

She asked not about what Shen Mochen was hiding first, but was concerned about his future, which warmed his heart.

"It's okay," Shen Mochen said with a smile, "since you don't know anything, I'll handle the rest and tell you the truth when we get back."

"Mm, just... be careful..." Xia Qingrou's face was full of concern.

"It's alright…" Shen Mochen reassured her once more and was then surrounded by a group of girls again.

Xia Qingrou sniffled, her expression also turning mournful.

At that moment, someone recognized Xia Qingrou and immediately approached gossiping, "Hey, are you also from 0819? What were you talking about just now? You guys aren't dating, are you?"

"Oh, I'm not close to him."

Xia Qingrou waved her hand dismissively. Although there was a hint of defiance in her words, she knew that Shen Mochen was a celebrity and it was best to avoid romance rumors about him.

Besides, Xuexue should be the one getting jealous, not me, right?

Xia Qingrou comforted herself somewhat self-deprecatingly in her mind.
