I get stronger by sunbathing, just like Superman.

Tu

Beautiful women are just so easy to soften people's hearts... but

After she finished speaking, Lei Ming, as calm as ever, pushed her hand away...

"Miss Sophia, I'm sorry, but I can't accept your offer. I have someone I like, and she's waiting for me..."

in addition…

I've saved some people, but I've killed far more...

I'm not a superhero.

"I do not care!"

As soon as Lei Ming finished speaking, Sophia shouted loudly and grabbed his arm again, as if afraid he would disappear again, her expression anxious:

I don't care if you're a hero... I don't care how many people you've killed or whether you have someone you like...

I don't expect you to like me, I just hope to stay by your side...

Please...please...

I'll do anything to stay by your side.

Sofia's tearful appearance and desperate pleas were incredibly heartbreaking. If it were anyone else, they would probably be thinking, "Seriously?! Get out of here, let me have it!"

"I……"

Lei Ming hesitated for a moment, about to speak, but was hurriedly interrupted by Sophia…

"If you're going to see someone, you absolutely can't go to see her like this..."

Upon hearing this, Lei Ming looked down at his tattered clothes and suddenly realized that what she said made some sense...

Please…

Please at least change into clean clothes and take a shower while I'm here...

Go to her with your best self…

As soon as Sophia said those words, Lei Ming felt that he would be completely out of his mind if he refused again...

"Thanks…

However… before that…

Could you please get me some normal food and drink first...?

Upon hearing this, Sofia's tear-streaked face immediately brightened...

...

...

next day

Before the sun had even risen, Lei Ming was already standing on the rooftop of the highest pavilion in the manor, waiting.

He changed into a new outfit. Although it was just a casual outfit, Sophia would never buy anything cheap, so Lei Ming didn't care what he wore.

In addition, his beard was shaved clean, and his hair was cut short to its previous length... of course, using a razor and clippers.

Before he was exposed to the sun, his body was not protected by stellar energy, and he could still use high-quality tools on vulnerable areas like his hair and beard.

Even so, he still wore out more than a dozen razors and clippers. If Sophia hadn't bought a large quantity, he would have even considered using an angle grinder...

Now, apart from being thinner than before, he looks almost exactly the same as before.

At this moment, a red sun finally rose slowly on the horizon, and the first rays of sunlight shone on Lei Ming...

His long-dormant cells began to frantically absorb and convert stellar energy. The conversion efficiency, enhanced by the Chaos Source Seed, was so high that even the naked eye could see wisps of golden light flowing beneath his skin…

Footsteps sounded…

Butler Smith carried a cup of coffee up the stairs to the rooftop and subconsciously noticed the strange phenomenon on Lei Ming's body, and was momentarily stunned.

But he was, after all, the Earl's steward. Age aside, his experience, knowledge, and professional skills far surpassed those of ordinary people. He quickly looked away and continued doing what he was supposed to do.

"Sir... please enjoy your coffee."

He spoke with a perfect London accent, his pronunciation steady and clear, as he placed the coffee on the coffee table behind Lei Ming.

However, the hand that was pulled back was trembling slightly...

He was the only person Sofia trusted, so he naturally knew everything she had done last night…

And the identity of the man in front of me.

This person killed millions of people in just a few minutes in New York five years ago... plus countless angels...

Smith was so nervous just standing behind him that he was practically scrambling to keep his coffee from spilling out; it was a testament to his composure.

"Thanks…"

Lei Ming didn't turn around, still basking in the sun with his eyes closed, unaware that Smith was desperately suppressing the fear deep within him...

He no longer uses telepathy unless absolutely necessary.

After all, you can hear other people's inner thoughts all the time...

It's not exactly a comfortable or pleasant experience.

By this time, the cells in his body had gradually converted an appropriate amount of stellar energy, the strange phenomena on his body surface had subsided, and Lei Ming also felt that his biofield and various abilities were slowly recovering...

Based on this trend, it should recover to its peak in a few months to half a year.

During this time, he didn't plan to do anything; some things... could only be done after he recovered or even became stronger...

……

Chapter Seventy-Two is merely a warning.

He had no intention of reuniting with Anko and Max...

We were never meant to be on the same path; the best outcome is for us to live in peace.

Moreover, in the five years he was away, they seem to be doing very well on Earth, and have even formed an alliance organization called something like 'Azure Guardians'...

It means to protect the blue Earth.

It was founded by Max and Anke the year after Lei Ming disappeared. The establishment of this alliance and its various overseas activities not only received the green light from the United Nations, but also enjoyed the support and love of almost the entire world's population...

Besides Max, Connie Betty, and the main members like Anchorana and Leona, there are also some strange and unusual individuals who have appeared since the Yellowstone Underground Palace incident, each possessing extraordinary abilities...

As for just how popular it is...

Almost every 8 out of 10 TV channels were showing their images.

Their comics, magazines, interviews, figurines, and other merchandise are sold in streets and alleys all over the world, and both officially licensed and pirated versions are in high demand.

The alliance headquarters is located near the underground palace in Yellowstone Park, and the Supergate, as the behind-the-scenes backer, has also stepped into the limelight, taking charge of all matters concerning all members of the Blue Guard.

Electrolux had also cooperated with them a few times, but did not join the organization because he was now the king of the Gendayas.

Seven years ago

After Lei Ming helped him regain his eyes and rescue his mother, a group of conservative Gendaya high-ranking officials sent people to the surface and, as the heir to the throne, invited him back to the underground.

Afterwards, they did everything they could to help him overcome the opposition, and he finally succeeded in ascending the throne…

However, Electrolux, who had become accustomed to life on the surface, did not stay underground. Instead, he chose to bring all the underground people back to the surface and, through Max and his team's peaceful contact with the Superpower Bureau, announced the existence of the underground people to the world.

This move caused a huge uproar, attracting attention from all over the world and causing a stir on half the globe.

Ultimately, thanks to the strong support of all the high-ranking members of the 'Azure Guardians' for Electrolux, coupled with the Gendaya's powerful individual strength and impressive technological level, and Electrolux's willingness to establish friendly relations with humanity...

Ultimately, they gained recognition from the United Nations, which also gifted them a rich, unclaimed coastal region near the Atlantic Ocean as the site for their nation-building. Gendaya officially became one of the legitimate states in the world.

Anyway...

In the years since Lei Ming left, the world has changed a lot.

He only learned a little about these things and didn't care too much about them, let alone have any intention of 'making a comeback'. He had been killing non-stop for more than ten years... Only when he suddenly stopped did he realize that he was exhausted.

Now he just wants to rest quietly for a while and then be with the people he loves.

Do things you love.

Thinking about this…

He was replaying in his mind the heat and wildness of that beautiful body.

He suddenly heard a distant noise, and his face lit up with joy...

But the mood quickly turned gloomy again.

A few minutes later, I heard footsteps approaching from behind.

"Lei...look who's here."

As Sophia spoke, she stepped aside, and a familiar figure appeared before Lei Ming.

Upon seeing the thunder, Elena stood frozen in place for a long time…

Despite having so much to say to her, Lei Ming eventually just walked over and hugged her.
