Gwen (the Spider Queen) might deliberately trip Jean with her webs when she passes by, or use her symbiote to conjure up some terrifying illusions to scare her.

Lin Tian still welcomed these childish "harem intrigue" behaviors.

And sometimes they might even add fuel to the fire?

For example, after Jean is "bullied" by Wanda or Gwen, he will immediately appear like a "hero saving the damsel in distress," protecting Jean behind him and "sternly" scolding Wanda and Gwen.

Of course, his tone was stern, but his eyes were full of affection.

This will not only make Qin more grateful to him and dependent on him, but also make her think that he is the only person who can protect her.

This will only make Wanda and Gwen even more eager to "cultivate" and "compete for favor" out of jealousy!

This is truly a win-win situation!

Lin Tian was very satisfied with his actions.

He knew that Jean Grey, this sensitive "phoenix fruit" yearning for love, was about to be completely "plucked" by him.

Just add one last spark

An opportunity for her to completely let down her guard and fall into his arms!

And this opportunity

Lin Tian looked into the distance at the red-haired girl who seemed somewhat frustrated because she couldn't perfectly control her telekinesis.

A gentle yet calculating smile curled at the corners of his lips.

It seems like it's coming very soon.

As Lin Tian had predicted, the opportunity arrived very soon.

On this day, the Xavier's Institute organized an outdoor skills training session for young mutants. The location was chosen in a relatively open woodland behind the institute.

Jean Grey was among them.

Professor X hoped that this relatively relaxed and natural environment would help Jean relieve her inner pressure and better control her telekinesis.

However, it is counterproductive.

Perhaps it was because of Lin Tian's recent appearance that her pent-up emotions and the restless phoenix power within her became more active.

Perhaps it was because of Wanda and Gwen's intentional or unintentional "provocation" and "stimulation".

Qin's performance in this training session was exceptionally poor!

She couldn't concentrate! Her mental power became extremely unstable! Sometimes it was so weak that she couldn't even lift a leaf, and other times it was so violent that it almost sent her teammates flying!

Scott watched anxiously, unsure how to help her, and could only keep shouting, "Jin! Calm down! Take control! You can do it!"

But his words did not have a calming effect; instead, they made Qin feel even more anxious and guilty!

"I can't do it! Scott! I'm a piece of trash! All I do is hurt people!" Jean finally broke down! She buried her face in her hands, squatted on the ground in anguish, and tears streamed down her face uncontrollably!

And then her emotions spiraled out of control!

The phoenix power within her, which had been suppressed for so long, began to surge wildly once more!

boom! ! !

An unimaginable, terrifying power erupted from her body in an instant!

An invisible storm of psychic power swept through the entire forest! Towering trees were uprooted! Rocks were reduced to dust!

Even powerful X-Men members like Scott Lang and Storm felt like small boats in a raging storm before this force! They were being tossed about and unable to stand firm!

What’s even more terrifying is!

A faint yet destructive flame-shaped energy outline began to emerge around Qin's body!

Phoenix Force!!!

It's actually getting out of control!!!

"No! Stop her!" Professor X's anxious voice (commanding remotely via telepathy) echoed in the minds of all the X-Men! "We absolutely cannot let her unleash that power completely! Otherwise, the entire Academy! Even the entire state of New York will be destroyed!!!"

Scott, Storm, Beast, and the others' expressions changed drastically! They immediately rushed towards Jean, disregarding everything, attempting to use their abilities to suppress her!

Laser beams! Gale-force winds and lightning! The roar of a beast!

Various powerful mutant abilities simultaneously blasted towards the petite figure enveloped in fiery energy!

Backup group ①⑦⑨⑥0③7⑨②

however

All of this is in vain!

Their attacks melted away like ice and snow the moment they touched the outline of that fiery energy! They couldn't harm Qin in the slightest!

Instead, it was like adding fuel to the fire! It further stimulated the eruption of the Phoenix Force!!!

"Aaaaaah!!!" Qin screamed in even greater agony! She felt herself being completely consumed by that power! Her consciousness was fading! Her reason was disappearing!

A devastating disaster is about to occur!

At this critical moment!!!

A figure appeared silently in front of Jean Grey as if by teleportation!

It's Lin Tian!!!

His face was expressionless, his eyes calm as still water, as if the phoenix power before him, capable of destroying everything, was nothing more than that in his eyes.

He didn't even use any powerful energy!

He simply reached out his hand.

It has an extremely gentle yet irresistible power.

Gently.

He stroked Qin's forehead, which was contorted and burning hot from pain.

"Don't be afraid, Qin."

His voice, though not loud, seemed to possess a strange magic.

Like the gentlest spring water, it instantly flowed through Qin's ocean of consciousness, which was about to be swallowed by flames.

"I am here."

Just three words.

Yet it seemed to possess a power even greater than the Phoenix Force!

Om-! ! !

The phoenix power within Qin's body, which was originally extremely violent and was about to completely erupt!

The moment they came into contact with Lin Tian's Hehuan True Qi, which was full of soothing and guiding power!

actually

Miraculously

Has things calmed down?

Although it remains incredibly powerful, it no longer exudes the same aura of destruction and chaos as before!

Instead, it seemed as if it had found some kind of "home"! It began to slowly and gently flow around the wisps of Hehuan True Qi that Lin Tian had injected!

as if

Is Lin Tian's power its true master?!

Qin also felt as if she had woken up from a terrible nightmare!

Consciousness gradually returned.

She looked at the man before her, into his deep, gentle eyes, and felt the warmth and comfort emanating from his hand.

Tears streamed down my face again.

But this time, it was no longer pain and fear.

Instead, it was filled with gratitude, dependence, and utter love!

"Lin!" She reached out a trembling hand and tightly gripped Lin Tian's clothes, as if grasping at a last straw. "I...I'm so scared!"

"I know." Lin Tian gently pulled her into his arms and whispered comfortingly in her ear, "Don't be afraid, it's all over now."

"With me here, no one can hurt you."

"And there is no power that can control you anymore."

His voice was full of confidence and power, making Qin feel as if she had found a harbor she could rely on forever.

far away.

Professor X, Scott, Storm, and all the other X-Men members stared in disbelief at the incredible scene before them!

The Phoenix Force, which was just moments ago enough to destroy everything, was so easily subdued by Lin Tian!

And the way Qin looked at him

That's not how you look at a friend or mentor at all!

That was absolutely! Completely!

The way a woman looks at the man she loves!

Scott's heart shattered into dust in an instant!

He knew he had completely lost.

Whether in terms of ability or in terms of feelings.

He lost to this man who was like a demon king.

Professor X felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

Even the Phoenix Force can be easily soothed or even influenced?!

Lin Tian's strength and methods have completely exceeded his expectations!

Can he still stop him?

Is it still necessary to stop him?

Perhaps letting Qin go with him would be a better choice?

At least he seems to be able to control the Phoenix Force?

For the first time, Professor X felt a sense of unease.

Lin Tian, ​​holding the red-haired beauty in his arms who had completely let down her guard and was as docile as a lamb, curled up a smile on his lips that only he understood, full of possessiveness and triumph.

Very good, the phoenix fruit has finally fully ripened.

It's time to really "savor" it.

After successfully "capturing" Jean Grey, the most tempting "phoenix fruit," and making her completely submit to him, Lin Tian did not stop his "hunting."

The Xavier's Academy, a treasure trove filled with all sorts of "delicious" prey, also has another target that interests him—the goddess who controls the weather, Storm Ororo Monroe.

Compared to Jean Grey's introverted sensitivity and inferiority complex stemming from her loss of control over her power, Ororo is a completely different character.

She is mature, confident, and full of power, possessing a wild and untamed heart like the storms she controls. She is a princess (or descendant) of an African tribe, once worshipped as a deity, and carries an innate pride and queenly aura in her bones.

Although she joined Xavier's School of the Xaviers, became Professor X's right-hand woman and a core member of the X-Men, deep down she still seemed to retain the loneliness of a strong person and the desire to explore the limits of her own power.

Lin Tian knew that for such a proud, powerful, and wildly charming "queen," simple gentleness and consideration or the seduction of strength might not be effective.

To conquer her, you need a more direct and domineering approach—demonstrate greater power, deeper wisdom, and a more captivating "kingly" aura!

It instilled awe and curiosity in her from the bottom of her heart, and ultimately she was completely captivated!

Lin Tian began looking for opportunities to get close to Ororo.

He discovered that although Ororo was skilled at manipulating the weather, summoning wind and rain, and drawing thunder, her understanding of her own power seemed to remain at a rather superficial level.

She relied more on instinct and experience to "command" the wind, rain, thunder, and lightning, but did not truly understand the deeper energy laws and cosmic principles behind these natural elements.

This makes her seem somewhat powerless, or even encounter bottlenecks, when facing certain extreme situations or when she needs to perform more precise and grander energy manipulation.

Lin Tian decided to start from here.
