But that didn't stop him from watching Lin Xuan's antics.

"Wait a minute! This is my home! Why are you locking me out?!"

Seeing Zhong Ming's expression of enjoying the show, Lin Xuan knew that looking for him was useless; she could only rely on Bai Yao inside.

Although it was possible to teleport in, Lin Xuan felt that... it was best not to do that.

"Who told you to disappear for so long without a trace? This isn't the first time, is it?"

Bai Yao's voice came from inside, and Lin Xuan could only scratch his head.

"There's nothing we can do about it. I didn't know it would turn out like that. Besides, don't you know how strong I am? I'll definitely be fine! Let's discuss it. Open the door first—Senior Sister!"

Those who know Lin Xuan and Bai Yao should know that Lin Xuan rarely says the words "senior sister" and usually calls her by her first name.

Then Lin Xuan heard a "bang" from inside, and it sounded like Bai Yao had kicked away the thing blocking the doorway.

Only two words came to Lin Xuan's mind—brutal!

Although Senior Sister Bai Yao is no longer a match for her, she still subconsciously feels a little scared, perhaps because she was bullied in the past and has some psychological trauma.

Bai Yao wasn't exactly a capricious person; she was just a little annoyed that Lin Xuan had been gone for so long, so the door opened quickly.

Lin Xuan subconsciously wanted to say something like an apology, but before she could finish, she was interrupted by a soft touch in her arms.

Zhong Mingyi, who had been watching the commotion, froze instantly and then slowly turned around.

Zhong Mingyi felt he should consider moving again. Staying with Lin Xuan again might be inconvenient. Hmm... I guess I should move out!

"Senior...Sister?"

------

"The room still needs to be cleaned. I've been gone for so long, didn't you even think to help clean it?"

The rat and Gallade had already started cleaning. Lin Xuan turned around and looked at Bai Yao with some helplessness. Bai Yao was still leaning against the door of Lin Xuan's room, her arms crossed over her chest, even though there was nothing there worth protecting.

"Hmph! Do you want me to put up a picture of you there too?!"

Bai Yao's face was still flushed. She didn't know why she had done that, and she still felt a little ashamed when she thought about it. Fortunately, Lin Xuan didn't react—well, this made Bai Yao even more unhappy!

The only problem is that there were other witnesses besides the two of them at the scene—Zhong Mingyi!

Bai Yao is now starting to think about how to kill him to silence him.

In other words, Zhong Ming ran fast enough that he immediately fled after that.

"So you're not going back to Jinhui City? How's the teacher doing?"

"Is that all you want from me going back?"

Lin Xuan didn't know why Bai Yao was so good at grasping the key points; perhaps it was a talent that girls were born with!

"No, no! Can't I just ask?"

Lin Xuan shook his head repeatedly. Xiao Dian and Yi Bu also cast disdainful glances at him. Why is Lin Xuan so cowardly in front of Bai Yao? We despise you!

"Well... the teacher doesn't seem to have any objections. As long as I train well, he'll be fine. But the dojo... I might have to trouble Senior Brother Liu Quan a little!"

Bai Yao chuckled. Recently, all the affairs of the dojo had been left to Liu Quan and their teacher Luo Guan. Luo Guan occasionally needed to go out on missions, so Liu Quan was under a lot of pressure. He had complained about Bai Yao's "running away from home" more than once, and was almost kneeling down to beg Bai Yao to come back.

"Heh, you really have the nerve!"

Lin Xuan rolled her eyes. Although she didn't seem to have fulfilled her obligations in this regard, she had no right to criticize Bai Yao.

But I haven't spent as much time studying at Jinhui Dojo as Bai Yao and the others... so it's okay to make Bai Yao and the others work a little harder, right?

Lin Xuan thought to himself that Xiao Xi and Xiaomi were very quick. In less than three minutes, the room looked brand new, and even the blankets had been changed.

Lin Xuan walked over to the computer and patted it.

"It shouldn't be so bad that it won't work after a month, right?"

After pressing the power button, the computer quickly turned on, and he planned to do a live stream tonight.

After all, it's been a month since he last streamed, and his fans are probably urging him to stream every day in the comments section of his posts.

Lin Xuan learned about the situation of the alliance during this period from Mr. Dou on the plane. His disappearance had caused a considerable impact on both the China Alliance and the United Alliance.

Fortunately, news from Metropolis arrived in time; otherwise, there might have been some other problems.

Lin Xuan had never cared about these things, but ultimately it was her own fault...

When Lin Xuan wanted to talk to his advisor, he learned from Mr. Dou that the old man had disappeared again, as expected. No wonder he said he and his advisor were so alike.

Mr. Dou's speechless expression was evident.

"Ugh~ I'm so tired. I've been on the spaceship for the past few days, I can't take it anymore!"

Even for a waveguide messenger, traveling for such a long time is exhausting! It's mainly mentally exhausting.

"Then you should get some rest. Would you like something to eat?"

Bai Yao looked like she was about to cook, which made Lin Xuan jump out of bed.

"Let Gallade handle this!"

Lin Xuan immediately stopped Bai Yao and said, "Bai Yao, please don't cook!"

Bai Yao has been staying with me for so long, and she has tried cooking before, as has Zhong Mingyi.

Zhong Mingyi is at least an ordinary person who can cook some simple home-style dishes, but Bai Yao...

Chapter 653 You want to blow up the research institute?

Professional tasks should be left to professionals or Pokémon. At least when it comes to cooking, Bai Yao is definitely not the kind of person Lin Xuan considers a professional.

Even though Gallade hadn't stepped into the kitchen for over a month, she was still far more professional than Bai Yao.

Although he was supposed to rest, Lin Xuan still took out the huge "Z Pure Crystal" after Bai Yao left, and then the four fragments were reunited.

This wasn't the first time Lin Xuan had studied them; they did indeed emit a special energy fluctuation, but the problem was that he had absolutely no idea how to use it.

Even the previous function of the secret realm has disappeared. The energy is completely compressed into this pure crystal without any leakage. Even if a Pokémon wanted to absorb that special energy to strengthen itself, it would not be able to do so.

"How exactly do you use this thing?"

Lin Xuan was holding this thing in her hands, almost ready to bite it, when she casually tossed it onto the table. This thing was extremely hard; even if she threw it out the window of her room, it wouldn't be damaged.

"Buy?"

[Haven't we tried this countless times before?]

Ibrahimovic told Lin Xuan not to do anything unnecessary, as they had already tried everything they were supposed to do during that boring time, and the rock hadn't reacted at all.

Lin Xuan had even wondered if this thing might be a special kind of "Z-Crystal," like the kind that could activate all Z-Moves, which seemed quite reasonable.

But reality gave him a harsh lesson; it wasn't like that at all!

At least as far as Lin Xuan knew, Eevee was the only Pokémon that had mastered a Z-Move, and that was without a Z-Crystal, but having it didn't offer her any special benefit.

There was no situation where the Nine-Colored Sublimation Gathering Top was easier to use.

"That advisor must know a lot of things, but even if he insists on being a riddle teller."

Lin Xuan muttered to himself, "Now that old man has disappeared again, he's dumped all this stuff on me."

But no matter what, he is still the league champion, and compared to Zhong Mingyi, the champion of the previous year, he has had a much easier time, so he doesn't seem to have the right to complain.

"Let's go to the secret realm again in a couple of days."

Lin Xuan thought that a month had passed, and those secret realms that lost this fragment should have undergone considerable changes. Moreover, this fragment was obtained from there, so perhaps revisiting the place would yield new clues.

As for why it's in a couple of days?

I'm finally back! Can't I even get a rest?

But the answer is clearly no!

"Although I feel bad for urging you to work as soon as you got back, how's things going with Dawn Group? They've been waiting ever since, and you've been missing for so long in between."

Zhong Mingyi, who had just fled from Lin Xuan's side as if to avoid trouble, called again, but Lin Xuan couldn't detect any "apology" in his tone; he was clearly gloating!

It's obvious that he felt he was a champion just like him, but he was so relaxed and gloating, right?

You sound very happy.

Lin Xuan couldn't help but mutter to herself, "The gloom around us is so intense that it's enough to attract Ghost-type Pokémon."

"Hahahaha, not at all, not at all. As a seasoned victim of the Alliance's work, I feel very sorry for you in this situation, hahahahaha."

"..."

How could you say these things with such joy while also showing a hint of sadness? It must be what they call a genuine expression of emotion.

"Understood. I'll go to the Kawafu City Dojo again tomorrow. I want to re-enter that secret realm. Is that alright?"

"Well... actually, there is a slight problem."

Having been involved in many aspects of this matter with Lin Xuan, I roughly guessed why Lin Xuan wanted to go to Chuanfu City.

"what?"

“Right after you took the things, that secret realm underwent quite a change, as did the other three secret realms.”
