Bringing the South Korean girl group members back to the country, Song Xixi really has a big heart.
Turning other people's city into such a mess and now taking their people away—this kind of behavior is somewhat unethical.
But Song Xixi is doing this for the girls' own good. After such a major incident here, many public facilities have been damaged, and those who remain will face serious problems in work and daily life.
So, it is foreseeable that for a long time, this city and country will fall into chaos.
In times of chaos, human lives are worthless. These physically weak women can only become spoils of war and commodities for others to fight over, facing a life of endless suffering and cruelty.
Survival is already difficult—who cares whether you are a celebrity or not?
Many people might even, in the aftermath of the disaster, act recklessly with a "live for the moment" mentality, doing unspeakable things to them—which wouldn't be surprising at all.
Even the agencies that once treated them like money-making treasures might now see them as mere commodities to be sold off.
Anything is possible.
So, only by going to a peaceful country with a stable environment can their safety be truly guaranteed.
China was perfect for that.
Not to mention before, but now, with the rise of the younger generation, people of China have begun to regain their past mentality of a grand empire, viewing others as beneath them.
Unlike immigrant countries, we do not discriminate against anyone. Our doors are always open, welcoming you with open arms. Once embraced, you will feel the connection and fall in love with this place.
These girl group members coming to work in China would definitely live much more comfortably than China people who went to South Korea to work.
"Alright then, I'll leave these people to you. Handle it yourself!"
Su Ye waved his hand, not intending to dwell on this matter.
As for girl groups, he only wanted to see them before to fulfill a childhood dream.
But after seeing them, Su Ye realized they were just average. Although their dance moves were seductive, their actual physical fitness was quite mediocre.
To put it simply, for the same move, Sharon Carter could hold it for hours, while these girls could barely last a few minutes.
The difference in stamina and endurance was too great.
So, after seeing them once, there was no need to keep them. If he wanted to see girl group dances in the future, he could just have female superheroes perform them instead!
Speaking of which, Su Ye already had an idea in mind.
When he goes back, he could organize the female superheroes and have them learn and perform these dances.
With the physique of superheroes, their dancing would definitely not be any worse than that of girl groups.
And the dance trainer was already prepared—Song Xixi could go straight to Los Angeles to train and choreograph for the female superheroes.
She could even open a dance class at Super H Academy, not only training and choreographing for the female superheroes but also providing students with an extra recreational activity.
Anyway, Song Xixi had already expressed her desire to go to America with Su Ye and have a good time.
After making these arrangements, Su Ye stood up, ready to leave.
As for the outside, Ultron had already arranged the evacuation plan. The body it had discarded was not scrapped; instead, under its control, it went out to impersonate itself and launch the final wave of attacks on the city.
From now on, that body would serve as Ultron's decoy, carrying out the plan to divide the United States into multiple factions.
Meanwhile, its real body was renamed Vision and stayed by Su Ye's side as a new member of the Great Wall Guardians.
"Send the signal—wrap it up!"
After Su Ye spoke, the fake Ultron flew out, leading the Iron Soldiers into a staged retreat.
To outsiders, it appeared as if they were being defeated by the Women's League heroes, but in reality, they were just making a strategic retreat.
When the fake Ultron, along with all the Iron Soldiers, withdrew from the city and disappeared into the distance, all the survivors in the city let out a collective sigh of relief, grateful to have escaped death.
"Being alive… it's really great!"
"Thank you, Great Wall Guardians' superheroes! Without their arrival, our country, our city, and we ourselves would all have perished here!"
"Long live the Great Wall Guardians! Long live the Women's League!"
"Long live the Women's League! Long live the Red Star flag! Long live China!"
"Uh, why are you praising China? What does this have to do with China?"
"Did you not see the paint job on that fighter jet? That color and those stars—that's China's flag, the color of hope!"
"That's true. They saved us—don't they deserve a bit of praise?"
"Of course they deserve it! We cannot be ungrateful!"
"Enough talk—just shout it!"
"Long live China! Long live! Long live!"
Amidst the survivors' deafening cheers, Su Ye boarded the Kun-class fighter jet with Helen Cho.
Strictly speaking, Helen Cho was not actually South Korean. She had obtained a U.S. green card while studying abroad and was now an official U.S. citizen.
So, returning to the U.S. was not a big psychological burden for Helen Cho.
"Uncle Su, can I ask for your help with the city's reconstruction efforts here?"
Asking Su Ye for help meant asking him to contact Zheng Xian to reach out to their infrastructure-focused allies—there was no one more suitable for rebuilding than them.
"I can introduce you to people, but they'll need to negotiate the details themselves."
"That's fine, as long as there's someone!" Helen Cho wasn't a boss; she had limited authority and decision-making power. Being able to arrange things this far was already enough.
As the plane soared through the sky, Gwen and Mai Shiranui approached Su Ye.
"I heard you recruited two girl group members here?"
The two stood on either side of Su Ye, their expressions unfriendly.
The moment they heard that Su Ye had recruited new girls, they instinctively felt that this man was up to something.
As his official girlfriends, they hadn't decided who was the "main" one, so they had agreed to temporarily distance themselves from Su Ye to see if he would become anxious and seek one of them out first.
To prevent any seductive vixens from taking advantage of this period, they used every possible method to remove any girls from Su Ye's side—including Wanda, whom he had recently brought back.
But to their surprise, in just one day, Su Ye had traveled to South Korea and picked up two more female superheroes.
And not just any women—they were girl group members.
In most people's impression, girl group members are women who flirtatiously dance to attract male attention, essentially no different from nightclub dancers in the U.S. who strip as they perform.
Gwen and Mai Shiranui were well aware that South Korea's training and development of girl groups were among the best in the world.
What they were even more aware of, however, was South Korea's advanced plastic surgery techniques.
So, they were worried that if Su Ye brought back a few girl group members, they would all look identical, making it impossible to tell them apart.
If that really happened, and Su Ye brought back several girl group members, they wouldn't even know how to guard against them.
However, after seeing Song Xixi and Liu Xiaoyun, they finally let out a sigh of relief.
First of all, these two girls were decent-looking, but they had neither curves nor standout features—clearly not Su Ye's type. It was obvious that he recruited them only because they were from China.
However, that didn't mean they could ignore the fact that Su Ye was randomly bringing in more women.
A few days ago, he went out and brought back Wanda. Now, he had returned with two girl group members. What's next? Bringing back ten at once?
"At least think about the gender balance in the Great Wall Guardians. There are only so many male heroes, and if you keep bringing in female heroes, the team will be completely unbalanced."
Gwen said this with a worried expression.
Su Ye was shocked. "What do you mean? Aren't you a feminist? Isn't having more female heroes a good thing? Doesn't it symbolize the rise of feminism?"
"Haven't you noticed? These days, superhero franchises are all about making superheroes female. They don't just prefer casting black actors—even for white actors, they avoid using gorgeous women. Instead, they pick women with square faces and flat chests to avoid accusations of objectifying women."
"The entire world is heading in this direction, and you're telling me not to bring back too many female heroes? That doesn't make sense!"
"We don't care!"
Gwen and Mai Shiranui exchanged glances. They never expected that feminism, which was often used as a weapon by women, would one day be turned against them.
With no other options, they resorted to making unreasonable arguments.
"Anyway, you can't bring back any more female heroes!"
"This is an order, not a discussion!"
Faced with their "order," Su Ye had no choice but to yield.
"Alright, alright. Yes, yes. Whatever you say. I have no objections. It's settled."
Gwen and Mai Shiranui had originally prepared a long speech, expecting to argue with Su Ye when he inevitably refused to back down. They wanted to teach him a lesson about what would happen if he angered both of his girlfriends at once.
But Su Ye's quick surrender made them feel like they had punched a pillow—it was completely unsatisfying.
"Remember what you said!"
"Don't let us catch you breaking your promise!"
The two left with a final warning before turning away, dragging Song Xixi and Liu Xiaoyun with them, away from Su Ye.
No matter what Su Ye was thinking, whether he had any interest in these two flat-chested, skinny women or not, they would never give him a chance to turn any ideas into reality—not even a little.
Su Ye smirked to himself. 'Naive. Do you really think dragging these new girls away will limit me? Do you have any idea that the entire Women's League is practically under my control? If I wanted, I could act at any time. You can't stop me, no matter how hard you try.'
'The entire team is mine. What do you have to fight me with?'
Watching Gwen and Mai Shiranui leave, Su Ye began planning his next steps.
According to the storyline, Thanos was coming soon.
Su Ye still had to get involved in the events of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 and Thor: Ragnarok. These universe-level events would surely provide him with many [Girlfriend Cards], and high-quality ones at that.
At this point, Su Ye no longer needed to rely on drawing random girlfriend cards, gambling for chances, or leaving things up to fate to gain abilities.
With the Reality Stone and Projection Magic, he could obtain any ability he wanted as long as he had the corresponding cards.
By now, he had accumulated quite a number of [Girlfriend Cards]. If he combined them all, he could even create a golden Epic-level Girlfriend Card.
However, he was still a few cards short of the highest tier—the Legendary Rainbow-colored Girlfriend Card.
Su Ye planned to use this opportunity to travel through space and collect enough cards to complete the Legendary Rainbow-tier Girlfriend Card. That way, he would have more confidence when facing Thanos.
Whether Thanos was like his movie counterpart—just a super soldier without the Infinity Gauntlet and stones—or like in the comics, where he could crush Earth's heroes with or without the Gauntlet, Su Ye had to be prepared.
After returning, he would start preparing for these matters.
Even if he went to space, Su Ye wasn't worried about losing contact with Earth.
Quantum or dark matter communication—like the one his mom, Ms. Ye, used to call Tifa—was one way.
With the Mind Stone in his possession, Su Ye himself was a powerful relay station.
His telepathy, combined with the Mind Stone, made him capable of real-time communication across space with people on Earth in real-time without any barriers.
This was the power of the Infinity Stones. He wondered if anyone had ever discovered this ability before.
But before leaving Earth, there was still one thing he needed to take care of.
The matter concerning the Ancient One and the sorcerers.
Doctor Strange was gone, as Su Ye had mentioned before.
But the Ancient One was still in New York, guarding one of the world's three major Sanctums. That wasn't something that could simply be abandoned with a few words.
Besides, Su Ye was planning to recruit the Ancient One's people to Super H Academy to establish a magic course.
The Ancient One might not like making public appearances or teaching at a school, but Wong could.
Wong used to be the librarian, so his theoretical knowledge was impeccable.
And based on the original timeline, Wong had the potential to become the Sorcerer Supreme. His future power should not be underestimated.
Most importantly, Wong and Old Su knew each other. There was even a good chance that Wong was one of Old Su's people.
In that case, his background wouldn't be an issue.
When the time came, Wong, as Kamar-Taj's Sorcerer Supreme, could establish a magic program at Super H Academy, making everything fall into place naturally.
