Mr. Cancer said he could accept help, indicating he holds the other party in high regard. This likely isn’t due to the person’s own rit but because of their identity or hidden stance. One must understand that Mr. Cancer is an extrely sensitive and highly defensive person. anwhile, he ntioned having a common goal—what goal, exactly? Could he be aware of the purpose behind everyone gathered beneath the Star Disc?
Others were even more shocked. The secret knowledge recorded in Simmons’ family notebook seed like the ignorance of a country bumpkin here.
Cantona, on the other hand, had witnessed the world and is already a Preparatory Angel. Despite feeling a bit heavy and pressured, he should have been leading at the Round Table Conference. Yet every ti he cos, he feels like an elentary student in the Grace Class, having grown accustod to being teased by Mr. Cancer.
Mr. Cancer’s tone seed to indicate a clear understanding of Miss Virgo’s situation. It’s truly puzzling how he managed to do this. A Three Lives not only dares to peep into the affairs of an Angel but actually accomplishes it, showcasing an attitude that plainly disregards Angels.
Why?
There’s also the unfathomable Mr. Gemini, only Two Lives yet able to command the Immortal within Secret Castle...
This left Cantona, who had already beco a Preparatory Angel, feeling no sense of achievent. The strength of the Round Table Conference might very well be based on Life Stars, possibly in reverse order. Moreover, he’s currently caught in the faith whirlpool where black and white are turned upside down, unable to muster any excitent.
"Mr. Cancer is truly the guardian of the Round Table Conference, so let’s move on to the Q&A session," Estella said.
Miss Aries was delighted. She was sincerely happy for her friend’s growth, and her voice imdiately pulled everyone out of their heavy and complicated thoughts into a lighter atmosphere.
"Recently, I saw sothing special in the Hex Bird Report, concerning Governor Luthor’s descendant, Lu Shuai. Mr. Gemini, Mr. Cancer in Dragon Capital, do you know what the real situation is?" Estella asked.
This matter in Hedan had also sparked widespread discussion, becoming a topic during tea and als. The Celestial Principle School expanded academic discussions around it. Luthor was an idol to many, even overseas, so people felt anger and regret at such an inept descendant.
Christian pursed his lips, not answering, feeling slighted for being placed later!
... Perhaps Miss Aries knew he wasn’t interested in gossip.
The descendant of Luthor?
Luthor didn’t have any offspring; who bothers to read newspapers?
"I saw that report too; it was truly infuriating!" Simmons expressed agreent, "Poor child, and those hateful frauds."
"What’s going on?" Cantona asked curiously.
Estella briefly explained the situation, leaving everyone speechless. How could such heroic descendants be so foolish, akin to a typical lustful and incompetent person?
"Miss Aries, don’t take the paper’s word at face value. That person isn’t a direct descendant, just a distant relative," Christian interjected.
Li Xin had to defend Lu Shuai’s reputation, "Everyone, the issue has been resolved. Your information is a bit outdated; it’s not like that. Lu Shuai devised an ergency asure to save a child."
Though Li Xin was still unsure who was manipulating things behind the scenes, Jiang Wu and Shadow Owl were undoubtedly involved.
At this mont, Lu Shuai needed so restoration in dignity, so Li Xin explained the real situation, leading the Round Table Conference mbers into another silent reversal.
Estella wiped her eyes lightly and promptly stood to apologize, "I underestimated; Mr. Lu is truly a hero, worthy of being Governor Luthor’s descendant!"
Even Christian, who was usually self-confident, was held in check for quite a while, "This person has so skills!"
Simmons and Cantona felt their minds buzzing, astounded that soone could solve the crisis so deftly. Could Dragon Capital really have such a person?
Batty, anwhile, didn’t quite understand everything but knew Lu Shuai was a person of Justice and wisdom.
"We are fortunate, and should also thank that kind Great Alchemist," Estella said happily, liking the outco.
"Miss Aries, you’re still too kind; there’s no need to thank him. He acted only because of the Wish Power gathered from nurous people due to this incident. Great Alchemists are a nostalgic profession; though they survive in the new era, their essence hasn’t changed. The stronger they are, the more dangerous. Be cautious if you encounter them," Christian advised, "The real mastermind is truly remarkable; is he in Dragon Capital too?"
Christian was intrigued, wanting to et such a figure.
"Yes, Mr. Cancer, if you have ti, we could et for coffee. I think you’d have common topics," Li Xin said.
Christian smiled slightly, convinced that n of wisdom would surely connect. He felt quite tempted; since secluding himself, he hadn’t paid much attention to outside affairs. For the first ti, he heard about a person who could effortlessly resolve crisis with superior insight—Luthor’s descendant, worthy of eting.
"Let confirm the ti first." Christian nodded.
"Alright, we await Mr. Cancer’s call," Li Xin replied with a smile.
Others chuckled discreetly, sensing Mr. Gemini was coaxing like with a child. Despite Mr. Cancer’s prideful nature, his sense of security was full; he didn’t want to harm others nor be hard.
Turning to Taurus, Cantona pondered, "The advancent from Three Lives to Four Lives is a very critical junction. As Mr. Cancer said, it marks the beginning of Divine Three Lives, indeed feeling so different experiences than before. I initially wanted to share so insights, but now I’m still muddled, needing to let things settle. Feel free to ask if there’s anything you’d like to know."
Except for Gemini and Leo, everyone present had reached Three Lives. Facing a crucial ti; transitioning from Three Lives to Four Lives, becoming a Preparatory Angel or not, the future paths would be completely different.
"Have you already confird you’re a Preparatory Angel?" Christian asked.
During advancent, people can easily fall into illusions due to the power gained, especially with the desire to beco an Angel.
"Yes, Mr. Cancer." Cantona replied. "There were traces of a Preparatory Angel after consuming the Magic Potion, shouldn’t be temporary."
"Just from the Magic Potion? Then you got sowhat lucky." Christian said. "Have you learned to control it?"
Cantona smiled bitterly, unsure if his situation could be considered good, becoming a Preparatory Angel for the Grim Reaper, completely severing ties with the Nether God. He felt increasingly attached to the Grim Reaper while already resisting the Nether God.
Next ti his teacher sees him, devastation would be inevitable.
"I’m gradually mastering it." Cantona replied.
"Congratulations, Mr. Taurus, what’s it like to be a Preparatory Angel?" Estella asked curiously.
"Significant enhancent in Spiritual Ability and physical strength, improved recovery ability, enhanced abilities as well, and a sense of being protected by Deity." Cantona reflected.
Estella mused, she used to feel that way too, but after the Golden Tree incident, that feeling no longer felt like protection.
"Mr. Taurus, any special experiences during the advancent, like encountering a Divine Being?" Li Xin asked.
Cantona thoughtfully recalled, "I’m not entirely sure; after consuming the Magic Potion, I felt like I lost consciousness, but later seed to enter a hazy state where I felt compelled in circumstances, only to wake up and find it muddled again. I vaguely rember being in a dim, vague, boundless world, which was oppressive, heavy, ... experiencing a glimpse of Divine Being’s power."
Simmons internally lanted this disparity; while others considered how to beco a Preparatory Angel, accumulating experience, Brother Li’s concerns approached differently.
Could the next target be a Divine Being?
