Superhumans of the Dome City
Chapter 108 - 108 24 A Narrow Escape For Now

108: Chapter 24: A Narrow Escape, For Now 108: Chapter 24: A Narrow Escape, For Now “Calm down, both of you.”

The Demon-Breaking Arrow flew towards his throat!

He blew it away with telekinesis!

“You got the wrong person to fight.”

The black blade, hardened by a superpower, came slashing down!

He blocked it with white matter!

Gongsun Ce shouted helplessly, “Why are you attacking me?!”

“You have the nerve to say that to me, Gongsun Ce!!”

Trouble, Miss Shiyu’s expression looked like a demon.

She looked even more terrifying now than during the previous decisive battle.

“I’m not talking to you, you narcissistic freak!” The superpower user dodged a sudden stab with a blink, “Miss Qin!

Why did you join their side, you should be helping me!”

Trouble, Miss Qin, holding the sword expressionlessly, looked like a demon.

She looked even more terrifying now than when she tore Xu Junyi apart.

“Mouth full of concern for Mr.

Shiyu’s romance, but actually taking advantage of your position to behave indecently.”

Next was a slash from the long sword, Gongsun Ce rolled on the ground, disregarding his image, and the long sword chopped the railing behind him into two.

“I’m so disappointed in you, Ah Ce.”

The murderous aura was even more violent than when he first met Miss Qiluo…!

This time, Mr.

Shiyu was too preoccupied to help; he had to rely on himself, dammit!

Stay calm, especially now; maintain a calm mind.

Since the issue started with Shiyu Ling, the breakthrough should logically be with her.

Start by observing the situation and step by step untangle the predicament!

The gray-haired young man looked at the face of the fake Hunter.

Miss Shiyu’s blush hadn’t faded yet, she looked as if she had just been molested by a villain.

“Don’t blush, can you have a bit of dignity, please!

You’re making me look like a pervert, Mr.

Gongsun!!!”

“Shut up, you pure-hearted virgin, you’re not so great yourself!

Besides, what you just did was downright perverted!!”

Observing the situation was useless, the murderous intent on Miss Qin was intensifying.

Gongsun Ce decided to adopt a more aggressive approach to quickly resolve the misunderstanding.

“Listen up, Shiyu Ling, to you, this narcissistic and nasty woman…” The gray-haired young man held his arm and turned his head away, “I have absolutely no interest.”

“I’m going to vomit; what are you, some twisted male secondary character?”

“Not to mention, you’re way beyond my guarding range by age.”

“Fine, Gongsun Ce, I’ll settle our previous grudge right here.”

Shiyu Ling cut her palm with her fingertip.

“!”

Qin Qianbai immediately shifted the direction of her knife, but this action was met with mockery from the Impermanence Law Enforcer.

“Wrong judgment, little girl.

Facing multiple opponents only makes me stronger!”

She was ready to fight seriously.

Launch an attack at full speed?

Shiyu Ling could still give orders even without fully deploying her abilities, which might just make them targets.

A safer solution was to launch various modes of attack simultaneously.

From the perspective of error tolerance, Miss Qin, who was relatively weak in defense, was not suited to take the front line…

“Ah Ce close in?”

Qin Qianbai also considered this, helping the superpower user make a quick decision: “Let me handle the close range!

Invisible Fist—”

“Spiritual Image—Manifest—”

Just as the battle was about to erupt—

Drip, drip.

A sound like water droplets started.

Gongsun Ce felt he had heard a similar sound before.

He immediately remembered—it was Shiyu Ling’s ringtone.

Drip, drip, the sound of droplets continued, and the ready-to-fight sides awkwardly stopped.

The superpower user pushed up his glasses, “Heh, go ahead and take the call.”

“What are you doing with that annoying face!”

Miss Shiyu awkwardly took out her phone, “Hello, this is Alice…”

When she heard herself being called that, Gongsun Ce chuckled deliberately, and the blue-haired woman glared at him.

“Now?

…What?

What kind of mission is this…

you people of the Sky City…

okay, okay, I got it.”

Shiyu Ling hung up the phone with an inexplicable expression on her face.

She quickly returned to her fierce look: “You—”

“I’m very sorry, Miss Shiyu!

You came at me with a killer move before I could even apologize; let’s not discuss what happened two weeks ago, I was really impolite this time!”

Instead of the harsh words, Shiyu Ling intended to leave with, she received the young man’s sincere apology.

“If I don’t figure out a way to make you leave soon, Mr.

Shiyu’s date today will really be ruined.”

Gongsun Ce closed his eyes, arms open.

“This was undoubtedly my fault; hit me if you want to— as long as it’s not fatal, I won’t retaliate.”

Shiyu Ling twitched her mouth, “That last line was so lame.”

“Well, after all, this time it’s not serious enough to risk my life.”

It seemed that after all this chaos, Miss Shiyu finally calmed down and turned away wearily.

“Fine, go and enjoy playing house with Shiyu Lianyi…”

At that moment, the always silent young lady spoke up.

“Ah, speaking of which, Kardesia was planning to set you up with Mr.

Shiyu.”

This statement perfectly hit Miss Shiyu’s breaking point, and she, who had just regained her usual composure, exploded: “What the hell is that girl thinking!

Is her brain just decoration?!”

Miss Qin did not join in criticizing her friend.

She pointed out sharply, “That being said, didn’t Ah Ce help you out?

If Ah Ce hadn’t rushed over, the one sitting in that car would have been—”

Well said, my dear friend!

Shiyu Ling’s expression right now was just perfect; just looking at it made one feel refreshed!

“Remember this, you guys!”

After leaving a statement even lamer than Gongsun Ce’s, Shiyu Ling disappeared from the spot.

The gray-haired young man laughed heartily, “That’s right, Miss Shiyu, you should be thanking me for helping out!

Hahaha!”

With a snap.

The superpower user felt someone’s hand on his shoulder.

Gongsun Ce slowly turned his head back; standing behind him was Miss Qin who had just spoken up to help.

The girl repeated in a toneless voice.

“Ha, ha, ha.”

The gray-haired young man broke out in a few drops of cold sweat.

“Miss, please calm down—”

“It was the right decision to have Shiyu Ling leave the scene first.

But why did you choose to do it by carrying her away?”

“The situation was sudden and at that time I—”

Miss Qin mercilessly cut him off, “Lying.”

Not even willing to give him a chance to make excuses!

Scary!

The gray-haired young man raised his hands in surrender.

“I admit I had a personal vendetta against her, Mr.

Gongsun.

I mean, my heart had been ripped out earlier, isn’t this a perfect chance to get back at her?

You know I didn’t physically touch her, it was all telekinesis—”

“Telekinesis has tactile feedback too, right?”

“It’s completely different from physical touch.

For instance, it’s like touching bubble wrap through a plastic film, it’s actually a very difficult ability to control!”

Half of it was a lie.

Miss nodded slightly.

Escaped a disaster, it seemed this time finally—

“Then, why did Ah Ce blush earlier?”

Miss, instead of that, why does your face look black now?

Are you enhancing your facial skin with superpowers?

It’s damaging your image, maybe it’s better not to use your powers like this—even such cheeky remarks can’t be made because she looks truly terrifying now!!

“Quick, think of Mr.

Shiyu, remember our romantic assistance strategy!” the Superpower User desperately shouted, “Think of the perpetual happiness of those who help others!

Now is not the time to waste, without doing something for that blockhead, a beautiful romance is about to be ruined!!”

“Yes, without doing something for that blockhead, a beautiful romance is about to be ruined.”

Even when agreeing, the blade came chopping down, aaaaah!!

No good, with only Miss Qiluo’s assistance, Mr.

Shiyu’s situation is really worrisome.

We must find a way to escape this dilemma, to help others and to save ourselves!

The gray-haired young man clasped his hands upwards, catching the blade.

“Listen, Miss, let me off this time.

After that, I’ll agree to anything you ask!”

Qin Qianbai’s actions stopped.

She tilted her head and asked, “So, one command right?”

What is this, it sounds like selling oneself.

“Ah, yes, just one, I’ll do anything—”

Miss tapped the rooftop with the handle of her knife.

“One time’s sincerity isn’t enough.

One day.

If it’s for one day, I might reluctantly forgive you once.”

Don’t push your luck—

I really don’t have the courage to shout this out loud.

Gongsun Ce listlessly sat in the corner of the rooftop, “Alright, one day it is…”

“Ah Ce’s command right, for a total of 24 hours.”

“Specifying it in hours makes it even more terrifying!

What do you actually want me to do?!”

“Discuss it with Kardesia later.”

The gray-haired young man stood up grimly and pulled out his pocket watch to check the time.

“At least don’t tell that woman about this…

God, how much time has passed, Mr.

Shiyu must have reached his destination already!!”

Miss Qin leaned in to glance at the pocket watch.

“…Look, look, that’s the face of someone realizing big trouble.

Let’s start our battle plan from the Second Stage.”

“Enough talk, let’s get going.

Hey hey, Miss Qiluo, can you hear me?!”

Only static noise came through the earpiece, the twin-tailed girl had already run out of the communication range.

The Empire duo exchanged a look, then leaped from the rooftop together, running towards the distance.

Come on, Qiluo.

Before we return…

Do NOT think of your own flawed ideas!!!

And so, so.

Let us rewind the time to just after the drama at the front of the apartment building.

Mr.

Shiyu and Kardesia took off in a sports car.

Gongsun Ce, Qin Qianbai, and Shiyu Ling ran off to the side to brawl.

The only one left to help Mr.

Shiyu was Qiluo.

She knew their destination, but—

She had no mobile phone, no change, couldn’t drive, didn’t know where the bus station was, and had only seen a rough map during yesterday’s battle meeting.

The question arose.

Miss Qiluo, how on earth would you catch up to Mr.

Shiyu speeding in a sports car?

“Sorry!

Excuse me!

Can I please borrow your electric bike!!”

That was why, after darting out of the apartment building, she stopped the first vehicle she saw.

The owner of the electric bike was a middle schooler wearing a peaked cap.

Confused, he looked at the stranger and hesitantly said, “Miss… it’s not typical to lend these things to someone…”

“Please, I can’t find Gongsun Ce and the others, and I can’t think of any other way!” the well-built pink-haired girl pleaded anxiously, “But I need to find a way to help them!”

The name made the boy in the cap shudder.

He jumped off the electric bike as if fleeing, his voice trembling, “I-I-I, I’m happy to help, take it, take it, can I go now?”

“Thank you!

I’ll return it to you when I’m done!”

Milas stared blankly as his electric bike was driven onto the main road by the strange older girl.

He suddenly remembered—he didn’t know her name or where she was going, all he had was the name of some Superpower User, which wasn’t much help in getting his bike back.

“My bike…”

The unlucky middle schooler screamed, clutching his head, “My electric bike ah ah ah!!”

This mournful wail reached a man passing by, dressed in teal.

Curiously looking at the distraught child, he asked, “What happened to your electric bike?”
