The aliens who were picked up by Superman at the beginning

Chapter 158 Changing Rooms for a Bath

After getting up from the ground, Li Zhen pondered for a while and decided to increase her nerve reaction speed to three times that of a normal person before sparring with Cassandra again.

This time, Lee Jung relied on her own fighting skills, honed through countless trials since childhood, and the guidance she received from Wonder Woman.

He held out against Cassandra until the seventh round.

After seven moves, Li Zhen could only watch helplessly as Cassandra's finger seized a barely perceptible opening, bypassing the obstruction of punches and kicks, and lightly touched his throat.

To be fair, if both of them were from Witrum, even if he didn't hold back, he wouldn't be able to kill his opponent with a single blow.

But if Li Zhen were an Earthling, then a single, forceful strike could easily puncture her own throat.

He could sense the killing intent Cassandra was hiding in her attack, but the girl's body control skills had reached a level that was beyond the reach of even the most powerful, so she was able to withdraw her power even when the attack contained real killing intent.

Seeing Cassandra silently withdraw her hand and step aside, Lee Jung subconsciously touched her neck.

"Incredible, incomprehensible."

Given equal abilities, even with three times the neural reflexes, he couldn't match this girl's, which meant that if she could close the physical gap...

Even Wonder Woman couldn't possibly be a match for Cassandra.

Because his current combat level is almost no worse than that of Teacher Prince.

Is this the true measure of a top DC combat master who claims to have defeated Batman in pure hand-to-hand combat using the body of an underage woman?

Turning back in awe, I saw Cassandra just finishing a series of sign language gestures to the oracle.

It wasn't the kind of sign language that had been systematically learned. Language system disorders are not limited to speaking. Any systematic language invented by humans would be difficult for Cassandra to learn.

So it's more like some simple gestures that were invented by themselves in order to communicate with the divine.

Only a top-tier computer language master like the Oracle could analyze Cassandra's meaning from a different level of logic.

The oracle looked at Li Zhen with a strange expression.

She said, "You are another version of her."

"What?"

Li Zhen scratched the back of her head, looking embarrassed.

"I'm not the kind of guy who gets all swayed by flattery. I can see the difference between me and Cassandra in terms of pure combat skills, okay?"

"No."

The oracle shook its head.

She said that you, like her, were both trained as inhuman weapons.

"You have both been deprived of some things that normal people should have in this process. She hopes that you can take her in. She hopes to learn from you until she is as cheerful as you."

Li Zhen suddenly felt someone grab her arm.

"To be honest, this kind of 'I'm a lot like you' or 'You're a lot like me' tactic is something I used a lot when I first arrived on Earth to try and get closer to people."

Li Zhen tried to pull her arm out of Cassandra's grasp, but Cassandra held on tightly while frantically gesturing to the oracle.

The oracle stroked his chin, analyzed for a long time, and then spoke with some uncertainty.

"She wants your approval to let her join the Teen Titans."

Li Zhen felt Cassandra nod, her short black hair rustling against her clothes.

Li Zhen tried to pull her hand away again, but to no avail. She then looked at the oracle with some helplessness.

"Could you explain why she would do this? We've only just met."

The oracle responded quickly this time, presumably because Cassandra had already made a similar gesture earlier.

"She said you look a lot like her compatriots, which made her feel dependent on you. You know, I brought her from abroad, and she was unfamiliar with the place."

"hold head high?"

Li Zhen started swinging his arm unexpectedly again, resulting in Cassandra hanging on his arm and being swung back and forth like a pendulum.

"What country is she from?"

"China's".

Li Zhen stopped what she was doing.

He really didn't know that Cassandra Cain was actually Chinese.

Hmm~ So that means Cassandra's mother, Ms. Shiva, who is also a top-ranked super fighter in the DC universe, is Chinese?

After letting his thoughts wander a little, Li Zhen, who had just come back to his senses, wondered if it was just his imagination, but he thought he saw Nightwing, who should have been trembling with fear, give him a meaningful smile.

It wasn't until Li Zhen returned home that she realized Ye Yi had already foreseen a certain ending.

Rachel's gaze was immediately fixed on Li Zhen's arm the moment she entered the room.

Of course, Cassandra did not come along. Li Zhen went to great lengths to persuade her, along with the oracle's advice, to keep her in the bat cave.

But Rachel ran over like a puppy and sniffed all over Li Zhen's arm that had been hugged.

Then a resentful gaze was fixed directly on Li Zhen's face.

Li Zhen coughed.

"First of all, I have an absolutely clear conscience."

"Secondly, this is a rather complicated explanation, so I hope you can listen patiently."

Rachel reached out and placed her finger on Li Zhen's lips.

"I believe in you, but I want to go with you to the next person's assessment tomorrow."

Li Zhen waited until Rachel loosened her grip before giving an awkward smile.

"Your last sentence sounds contradictory."

"I'm afraid you'll smell bad again tomorrow."

Seeing that the conversation was about to reach a dead end, Li Zhen hurriedly ran towards the stairs, while Rachel silently kept stabbing Li Zhen in the back with her gaze.

Li Zhen decided to go back to her room, take a shower, and then go to sleep.

Since it's a house I built myself, I certainly wouldn't be stingy or shabby; each room has its own bathroom.

But when his hand touched the doorknob, he unexpectedly felt a resistance that defied the laws of physics.

Looking down, I saw dark magic, emitting a ghostly glow, wrapped around the keyhole.

Looking back at Rachel with a helpless expression, Li Zhen gave a bitter smile.

"Surely not? I'm sleeping on the sofa tonight?"

Rachel tilted her head back, and a blush appeared on her cheeks, which had been hidden by the hood.

She gestured towards the other side of the second-floor corridor.

Li Zhen turned her head to look.

That was Rachel's own room.

"Well, we're not that old yet—"

"Don't misunderstand."

Rachel spoke, seemingly calmly.

"The water pipes in your room are broken."

Li Zhen clearly heard a loud bang coming from her room at the same time.

"Water was splashed everywhere."

"Your bed is wet too."

Looking down at the purified water seeping through the crack in the door, Li Zhen silently glanced at Rachel.

The latter turned his head away.

"It's too late today, we can fix it tomorrow. Anyway, we're using purified seawater, so it's not a waste."

The room fell silent for more than twenty seconds.

Finally, Li Zhen stepped over the puddles flowing everywhere and opened Rachel's room door.

There was no separation of wet and dry areas; the dark-style skull-shaped bathtub was just placed by the window, and two meters away was Rachel's same white bone bed.

"Um, I think you might have to wait until I'm finished showering before coming up."
