After a night of intermittent flying, Lin Chen arrived home in the morning.
As expected, the women at home inevitably complained.
Serena bit his wrist. "Hmph, you must have gone to that witch from the Holy See! Let me see if you smell like her."
Lin Chen: "…Just say you want to drink blood."
Mela grumbled resentfully, "Master, are the wildflowers outside really that fragrant?"
"I was actually doing things," Lin Chen said.
None of them believed him.
Lin Chen sighed. He would have to prove it today.
Jill complained, "Looks like the outside is completely blocked off."
"What's going on?"
Catwoman rolled her eyes at him. "Everyone thinks you're the savior of the world. Some came to worship you, some want autographs, some want to learn pickup techniques, and some are asking for lottery numbers."
Lin Chen was speechless. He didn't like being stared at, nor being surrounded.
He sent his voice out like thunder to the crowd outside, telling them to go to his livestream room if they had something to ask. Blocking his doorway was useless.
He wasn't a savior. Iron Man, Batman, Cyborg, the Flash, and others had contributed a lot too.
In the afternoon, Lin Chen started a fortune-telling livestream and discovered his followers had already exceeded 100 million.
Killing Steppenwolf last time had brought him enormous popularity.
While chatting with viewers, he told fortunes for three people and gained dozens of merit points.
With a backhand motion, he drew a lottery.
[Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining a purple reward: Dao Technique — Great Concealment Talisman.][Great Concealment Talisman: Stick the talisman paper onto the body to become invisible.]
"Invisibility?" Lin Chen was delighted. This spell would be extremely useful.
His talisman could conceal not only people, but also objects by attaching it to them.
"It's even better than ordinary invisibility—clothes turn invisible too."
Lin Chen immediately drew an invisibility talisman and stuck it on himself.
He walked around, but the girls showed no reaction.
He followed Catwoman into the room.
Catwoman suddenly exclaimed, "Damn!"
Lin Chen was startled.
"That's a police uniform. The scent on you gives you away—it's Harley's new perfume," Catwoman said, facing his direction.
"This invisibility talisman seems flawed." Lin Chen removed it.
Catwoman said proudly, "I control wind. When you move, I can sense the airflow—let alone Harley's perfume on you!"
Lin Chen scooped her up and tickled her fiercely. "Oh, our Catwoman is amazing!"
"You scared me and took advantage of me!"
In the end, Lin Chen gave each of them two invisibility talismans to use for self-preservation in danger.
Harley soon turned it into a game.
Each of them used a talisman and asked Lin Chen to catch them. Once caught, he had to guess who it was, or face punishment.
For such a "benefit" game, Lin Chen said the more the better.
That night, he called Batman to ask about Luther.
"Master, Luther said he didn't send the Joker to be rescued. I don't think he's lying."
"Then who could it be? That person clearly wants to destroy the world."
"We can only wait and see for now."
Lin Chen stayed in Gotham for a few days, then went to New York to visit Louise.
Louise could move around now but would still be hospitalized for half a month.
Lin Chen took her pulse and nodded. "Mother and child are safe. I'll prescribe some more Chinese medicine to nourish your body."
Louise thanked him. "Master, thank you. Doctor Strange said if not for you, I would've died."
Lin Chen shook his head. "It was my fault. I almost killed you, and Superman couldn't be resurrected."
Louise shook her head. "It's fate. Maybe God gave me this child to honor Clark."
Lin Chen said solemnly, "Louise, if I ever get the chance, I will resurrect Superman. You must live well."
"Don't worry, Master. I'll live well for my child."
At that moment, Superman's mother came in.
After chatting, Lin Chen asked strangely, "Where are Kayla and Mindy? I told those two girls to take care of Louise."
Louise smiled. "How could they stay idle? When I was bedridden they behaved, but now they've gone wild again."
Bang! The ward door burst open.
"Daughter-in-law, look what I brought you." Kayla entered holding wildflowers, with Mindy hand in hand.
Seeing Lin Chen, her eyes lit up. "Master, you're finally here! You're amazing—you defeated Steppenwolf!"
Lin Chen rubbed her blonde hair. "You'll be able to do it too in time—you're Kryptonian."
Mindy was unhappy. "You're all monsters, but I haven't even succeeded in cultivation yet!"
She clamored to go to Lin Chen's house to practice. He promised she could come during winter vacation.
Lin Chen arranged for Kayla to attend school with Mindy.
Kayla nearly collapsed. "Master, I'm in my thirties—why do I still have to go to school?!"
"You slept for over ten years and haven't grown at all. Stop pretending to be an adult. Go to school properly."
Kayla had no choice, and Louise supported the decision.
"Earth children are so pitiful. I want to go back to Planet Krypton!"
That evening, before Diana returned, Lin Chen planned to find Widow Sister, but she was on duty and couldn't come back.
He didn't want to see Skye to avoid exposing her undercover status. After thinking it over, he bought a stack of study materials and knocked on little Spider-Man's door.
Little Spider-Man didn't shoot webs at him this time. "Come in. Aunt May is here."
Lin Chen patted his head. "What's wrong, you don't hate me now?"
"You're too strong. You defeated Steppenwolf, saved Earth, and can grow bigger. I'm just a kid—how can I fight you?" Little Spider-Man shrugged.
Aunt May rushed over. "Master, I missed you so much!"
She chased Peter upstairs. "Peter actually admires you. Lately he's been imitating the middle-finger gesture you gave the aliens."
Lin Chen shook his head. "That's not a good habit. He needs to change it."
Aunt May agreed, but first insisted on checking whether he had been infected by aliens.
The next day, Lin Chen returned to Gotham and began a reclusive life.
Darkseid would never give up; one day Earth would face invasion. There would also be Thanos in the future. Both were terrifying.
Compared to them, his current strength was still insufficient. He had to grow stronger.
Homelander also seemed to have kept a lower profile after recent criticism.
The Holy See and Walter's secret operations had also ended.
Thus, a month passed. Lin Chen livestreamed fortune-telling daily, gaining popularity and several small Daoist techniques:
[Wall Penetration: Instantly draw a temporary door on a wall and pass through.][Shapeshifting/Transfiguration: Use talismans to change appearance, equivalent to disguise surgery.]
Today, Lin Chen was meditating at home.
Suddenly, a roar came from the sea!
