Superman Termination Manual

Chapter 366: Chapter 209 Family Meeting Week Three (Part 2)

After a long pause, in a low voice, she asked, “So, what do we do now? Should we talk with Xiao Ni about it…? Because of those witches, the situation of the magic girls is even more dangerous than that of the superheroes…”

“Right, the Witch Church… Babel Tower,” Ke Yinzhi took a deep breath, “I heard that organization is very dangerous, ranking only one level below Diviner Zeus in the Management Bureau’s rating… But with Xizi Yue, Lilai, and Udina, those three powerhouses, their strength is clear for all to see. In some time, the Magical Girl Alliance will also send quite a few reinforcements to the Huanjing Faction, and don’t forget we have a big evil dragon at home. By all accounts, Xiao Ni shouldn’t encounter any trouble, and there’s no need to worry too much.”

“Really…?”

Ke Xiaomo whispered.

“Really, don’t worry unnecessarily,” Ke Yinzhi smiled, “I think this is the second time I’ve said this to you. You can’t be too overprotective, Xiao Mo student.”

Ke Xiaomo hugged her shoulders, sulkily replying, “Every time something happens, you seem calm, but actually you’re more anxious than I am. Now when it comes to comforting me, you have a whole set of lines.”

...

Ke Yinzhi chuckled lightly, neither admitting nor denying.

“And what about Mingye?”

“Blue owl, have you heard this name before?”

Upon hearing this, Ke Yinzhi’s expression subtly changed, he raised a finger signaling Ke Xiaomo not to continue, and after pondering for a moment, said, “Brother, you’re not going to tell me… Mingye is that superhero who debuted imitating Qing Ya?”

“Exactly, Mingye has already admitted it to me, and I even know where his secret base is. He always stores his suits there,” Ke Xiaomo said.

Ke Yinzhi held his forehead and exhaled softly.

He said, “Do you know, every day when I flip through my work files and see the list of strange management tasks, my brain has never been so overloaded.”

“Anyway, let’s put Xiao Ni aside for the moment and summarize the situation first…” 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

Saying this, Ke Yinzhi lowered his eyelids, raised a finger to his chin, rubbing it as he thought aloud, “Magic girls can be considered a stroke of fortune, chosen by the remnants of a comet fragment left on Earth, awakening power naturally; Divine Communicators could also be said to be a stroke of fortune, perhaps Qiuwu encountered some ancient relic left by Sun Wukong while traveling with our mother, thus naturally becoming a Divine Communicator;…”

He paused, “As for Yongzhu’s disaster dragon bloodline, and Mingye’s superpower, both of them are adopted. If it’s just a coincidence, that’s acceptable, but Xiao Ling… she wasn’t adopted, but originally a member of our family, with blood relations to us… If it’s true as you say, that she’s a vampire, then isn’t that a bit strange?”

“Indeed, it is very strange.”

Ke Xiaomo pondered.

Ke Yinzhi said, “In the Management Bureau’s abnormal records, there is documentation of the Blood Clan’s existence. The Blood Clan possesses exceptionally high physical fitness, powerful regenerative abilities, and control over blood… but the vast majority of Blood Clan members become so because their parents or ancestors were of the Blood Clan. Do you think it’s possible that our mother or father look like they could be from the Blood Clan? Of course… it’s also possible that Zi Ling’s Blood Clan gene didn’t come from her parents but from a recessive gene from the ancestors; but tracing any further back makes the scope too broad…”

Upon hearing this, Ke Xiaomo seemed to associate it with something, so he spoke up, “I think there’s another possibility.”

“What possibility?”

Ke Xiaomo thought aloud, “Today, during the fight with that group of Blood Clan hunters, I noticed one of the hunters used a kind of mark inscribed on his body to obtain regenerative and explosive powers similar to a vampire. It’s as if… he didn’t feel human anymore.”

Ke Yinzhi raised his eyebrows slightly, turning to look at him.

“You mean… Someone used some method to artificially turn Xiao Ling into a vampire, just like the Blood Clan hunter you encountered?”

Ke Xiaomo nodded.

“Oh… If such a person exists… then they are really audacious.”

Ke Yinzhi muttered under his breath, his pupils swirling with a profound light.

“Do you think… someone is targeting our family, and they’ve tinkered with us?” Ke Xiaomo asked, “Whether it’s Yongzhu’s case or this time with Xiao Ling, it’s always targeting our family members, as if… someone is deliberately arranging it, which is strangely coincidental.”

“No,” Ke Yinzhi shook his head, leaning the back of his head against the wall at the stairway entrance, gazing up at the brightly lit night sky, “Have you ever thought about who adopted Mingye and Yongzhu?”

Ke Xiaomo fell silent for a moment, taking a deep breath.

He said, “I’ve thought about it… To be honest, since knowing that Yongzhu is the descendant of the disaster dragon, I’ve been considering the possibility.”

After a pause, he continued, “At the time, I didn’t want to think in that direction and treated it as a coincidence. So… you think the problem lies with mom?”

“Nine times out of ten,” Ke Yinzhi said softly, “But since there’s no evidence yet, let’s not jump to conclusions… After all, she is our mother.”

“I’ll find a chance to observe mom for a while.”

“Um…” Ke Yinzhi took a deep breath, “I know it’s tough on you, but resolving this matter is for the best for all of us; if mom isn’t the problem, then it means someone else is involved. That person should know mom, and then guide her to adopt Mingye and Yongzhu, and afterwards, meddle with us… even with our younger brothers and sisters, guiding us to become who we are now.”
