"I'm sorry." He looked wearily at the girl's burned hands, repeating hoarsely over and over, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."
He didn't know what he was apologizing for—was he sorry for burning her hand, or for hiding it from her for so long?
Bai Ziling stared at him blankly for a while, her blood-stained lips twitching slightly. But Ke Yongzhu still couldn't hear what she was saying; the whole world was filled with the deafening roar of shattering.
It made him want to smash everything to pieces.
Sister, what are you saying?
Does she hate me? I've kept this from her for so long, never telling her that I'm the dragon...
In the silence, he vaguely looked at the girl's lips and read it aloud in his mind.
"We're going home."
As she spoke, Bai Ziling lowered her eyes and hugged his thin body, their figures seeming as if they might be blown away by the wind at any moment.
At the same time, at the entrance of MixC.
"Didn't I tell you?" The strange thing lowered its raised arms and grinned. "The dragon has turned back to normal. I don't know what you guys were so anxious about?"
Even if he hadn't jumped out, Bai Ziling would have definitely gotten close to the dragon. He was just there to make his presence known and, incidentally, to improve the favorability of the Xuanming Elders.
Black Wukong stood frozen in place, her gaze fixed on the boy and girl in the deep pit. Although the smoke shrouding the First Building of Wanxiang City was thick, her fiery eyes could see everything inside clearly.
The Black Judge also took a deep breath; upon seeing Bai Ziling, he almost couldn't breathe.
Even if he killed Ke Yongzhu at top speed, there were still countless ways Bai Ziling could be affected. Fortunately, the outcome was not bad... Ke Yongzhu returned to normal, and Bai Ziling was unharmed.
“That’s settled then.” The Black Judge shrugged. “Miss Divine Communicator, as I said, two of my friends are in critical condition and I need to get them to the hospital as soon as possible. I’ll leave this dragon to you.”
He calmly uttered a few words, then turned around and walked toward the Gibran Bookstore on Lordville Commercial Street.
Just then, a girl with a high ponytail hurriedly passed by him; it was Bai Zini, who had just deactivated her transformation.
Ke Yin hesitated for half a second but did not stop her.
Bai Zini simply passed by him and Bai Qiuwu, rushed into the smoke-shrouded interior of Wanxiang City, stared blankly at Bai Ziling and Ke Yongzhu for a couple of moments, and then led them away from there.
Black Wukong disappeared into the smoke at some point, probably to find a place where he could take off his battle suit, or perhaps to find Ke Mingye, Ke Yinzhi, and Ke Xiaomo.
"This is really a headache. Before, I only had one younger sister to worry about, and now there's another one... a little dragon. Ziling seems to know that the dragon is him, otherwise she wouldn't have approached him so rashly."
"It seems I'll have to find a way to hold a family meeting when I get home to discuss this matter and try my best to keep Yongzhu's identity from being exposed."
As Ke Yinzhi pondered this, she tilted her head, pressed her black earring, and the holographic projection of the black judge's uniform she was wearing disappeared.
He sighed, stepped into the Gibran Bookstore, removed the barrier he had set up, picked up Ke Xiaomo's body with one hand, and held Mo Xiejia by the back of his clothes with the other.
"Why do I have to drag it?" the writer asked hoarsely.
Are you my brother?
Ke Yinzhi responded casually, dragging him out of the Gibran Bookstore with a blank expression, leaving a line of bloody ink on the ground.
He had confirmed beforehand that the surveillance cameras within a 200-meter radius had been temporarily disabled by the Ninja Clan using some means, so this battle would not be recorded on the surveillance footage.
Nearly ten minutes had passed since the incident began, enough time for several fights to break out, before the Superhero Association finally arrived at the scene and began their investigation.
The fog was very thick, and the pedestrians trapped on the first floor of MixC Mall probably couldn't see Ke Yongzhu, who had returned to his original form, and Bai Zini had also quickly taken him and Bai Ziling away.
Therefore, the power to interpret this incident basically rests entirely in the hands of this passing "black judge".
Ke Yinzhi had already prepared a set of explanations.
Although those old men at the Control Bureau aren't easy to fool, and a lack of rigor in my explanation could easily arouse their suspicion, the Control Bureau will soon launch its operation to eliminate "Black Wukong, the God-like One." Once that happens, after he's chopped up all the other S-class executors and fed them to the pigs, he'll naturally find a way to escape the Control Bureau.
So, the problem isn't actually that big.
If things really come to a bad end, we can just slaughter all those old men at the top too...
Thinking this, Ke Yinzhi took a deep breath, lowered her head, her cold pupils were covered by her bangs, and her earrings swayed and made a clear sound.
"How are they? Are they alright?"
Ke Xiaomo, held in his arms, managed to exhale and ask.
"Don't worry, the kids at home are all fine." Ke Yinzhi smiled. "It's just that Mingye hasn't been found yet, but he should be hiding in the movie theater on the fifth floor. Logically speaking, the Ninja Sect wouldn't target him."
"That's good……"
Ke Xiaomo was silent for a while, then closed her eyes and said in a hoarse voice, "Thank you. I'm so glad you were here, otherwise I wouldn't know what to do."
"Please, we're brothers."
"Yes, it always has been."
Upon hearing this, Ke Yinzhi shrugged and led them slowly out of the smoke-filled Luodehua Commercial Street.
Looking around, a coffee shop sign still stands on the ruins, like a white flag waving on a battlefield.
Please vote for me, thank you!

Chapter 120 The Control Bureau's Death Announcement
At 10:55 AM, MixC Mall, fifth floor, inside the men's restroom of the cinema.
As Bai Qiuwu walked inside, she turned her head to observe the doors of each cubicle.
Finally, her gaze settled on the top of the last cubicle—the only one with its door closed.
So she lowered her gaze and looked at the doorknob. After hesitating for half a second, she reached out and touched the cold handle, turned it to the right, and then pushed open the cubicle door.
With a creak, the door slammed shut, leaving a crack.
Peering through the crack in the door, one could see a boy sitting on the toilet seat, his head buried tightly in his arms.
Bai Qiuwu stared at the person, paused for two seconds, then breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but press her hand to her forehead and chuckle softly.
Finally, he said irritably, "Get up, you lazybones! How can you sleep so soundly in the toilet?"
"Holy crap, sis?!"
Upon hearing the familiar voice, Ke Mingye immediately raised his head.
"Who else could it be?"
Bai Qiuwu met his gaze and gently tapped his head with her finger.
Ke Mingye was stunned for a long time before stammering, "I just went out and saw a group of people dressed in black cloth, wearing masks, and then..."
Bai Qiuwu sighed and interrupted him: "A ninja... right?"
"Yeah, how did you know?!"
"Everyone else has encountered this; you're not the only one."
"I thought I was the only one who saw it. I was so scared that I thought I was being haunted. Are there still ninjas in the 21st century?"
"Please, don't you even look at how bad the fighting is outside?" Bai Qiuwu tilted her head, her tone quite helpless. "Anyway, we have to leave quickly, it's very dangerous here."
She paused for a moment: "Why aren't you getting up yet? How long do you want me to stay in the men's restroom?"
Upon hearing this, Ke Mingye thought to himself that this concerned his elder sister's innocence and could not be delayed. So he scrambled up from the toilet seat and asked as he walked out of the stall.
"What exactly is going on? Why are there ninjas? I've been sending messages in the group, but no one has replied."
"Who knows?"
"Are the others alright?"
“Zini and Ziling are both fine. Yongzhu… suffered some minor injuries, but nothing serious,” Bai Qiuwu said. “We haven’t found my eldest and second eldest brothers, but they weren’t in Wanxiang City when the incident happened, so they shouldn’t have been involved. It’s not a big problem.”
"My eldest and second eldest brothers are really something; they can't be found at such a crucial moment."
"How dare you talk about them like that? Didn't you also hide in the toilet for ten minutes?"
"It's only been ten minutes. You can't expect me to fight those ninjas to the death, can you? I was so scared I almost peed my pants."
Bai Qiuwu was silent for a while: "Actually, it's right for you to hide here. When I was looking for you just now, I was very worried that something might have happened to you."
"And where did you go?"
"I was trapped by those ninjas, but they weren't targeting me."
"What exactly are they after?"
"You ask me, who should I ask?"
Bai Qiuwu paused for a moment, the face of Ke Yongzhu lying in the deep pit flashing through her mind, "Let's leave through the back door quickly. Let's hurry, otherwise when the Superhero Association comes, we'll probably all be detained for questioning."
"Don't we need to cooperate with the police investigation?"
“No, we need to find my eldest and second brothers first. We don’t even know what’s going on with them, so we don’t have time to worry about this.” Bai Qiuwu shook her head. “Besides, there are so many people at the scene. They will explain the details to the police.”
"Okay."
With that, Ke Mingye and Bai Qiuwu walked out of the men's restroom together.
As they walked, Bai Qiuwu suddenly remembered something, so she deliberately pulled his shoulder and took a longer route, bypassing one of the audience passages.
The illusionist she had previously defeated had died from blood loss, and she didn't want Ke Mingye to see the body.
Wasn't this going too far...?
