Are You Going to Stop Me?

After this incident blew up today, General Ross knew what was going on as soon as he heard the name Craig Wayne. He had almost let it slip when he was drunk that day.

While searching the world for Xia Yu and Craig Wayne, he had already obtained the same information as the president through his connections.

Xia Yu's reaction today surprised everyone, but judging from the initial reactions at the scene, Tony Stark did not approve of what Xia Yu did.

However, judging from Betty's response, the Avengers must have encountered something today. Even Tony Stark, who was with Xia Yu, was called back by Captain America, as if something major had happened.

General Ross was a soldier, and in his view, killing was nothing serious, especially since these bastards truly deserved to die. However, he was also a politician, and it was best to avoid killing people in front of the whole world if possible.

So he chose a roundabout approach. After learning that Craig Wayne had been taken away by people from the White House, General Ross decisively found the remaining three Congressman and took them to the Avengers headquarters.

Of course, he didn't sympathize with those three bastards; he just felt that since he was the one who started the trouble, it was best not to escalate it further.

If Xia Yu kills Craig Wayne, and then kills all three of them at the same time, things will get really out of hand.

Even if you have a plausible reason, the main culprit is dead, so can't the accomplices be handed over to the government? If they are also killed, it only shows that Xia Yu, or rather the Avengers, is blatantly above the United States Constitution and even trampling on the laws of the world.

On this point, whether he's on the side of the government or the Avengers, it's not something he wants to see.

So he took the three men and went straight into the Avengers headquarters.

The Avengers were all gathered in the conference room today. General Ross locked the three Congressman in a special room at the Avengers Compound and then followed Betty into the conference room.

As soon as he entered, General Ross sensed that something was wrong.

You could tell from the expressions on everyone's faces that this group had just had a heated argument.

Based on what Betty just said, General Ross knows that something big has happened to the Avengers.

But General Ross was a cunning old fox, and he couldn't possibly ask that question directly.

Pretending nothing had happened, she recounted everything that had occurred that day, from beginning to end, including what had caused the incident.

"You brought those three Congressmen with you? What about Craig Wayne? Shake is after him."

The Captain then spoke.

"He was picked up by people from the White House, but I don't think Xia, with her abilities, could possibly not find him."

"Tony, take me to the White House. I need to wait for Xia."

Natasha suddenly stood up and said.

"You'd better send more people; it seems like you can't stop him by yourself."

General Ross said from the side.

"I didn't intend to stop him. He's in a bad mood right now. I'm not Avengers, I'm his woman. I'm going to comfort him. If he's still not satisfied, I'm willing to help him kill someone."

Natasha said coldly, a murderous aura that hadn't been seen in a long time—the aura of a top KGB spy and assassin—appearing on KGB.

Tony slapped his forehead in frustration.

"I'm also his good friend, Ms. Romanoff. I won't harm him. At least try to persuade him wherever you go. If that doesn't work, you can bring him back and kill him later."

After saying that, his expression suddenly turned serious as he looked at the Captain.

"We can talk about that later. There's no result yet anyway. Let's deal with the immediate issues first."

General Ross's expression changed upon hearing this. What could be more important than the current situation? It seemed they had encountered something that had even distracted them from Xia Yu's frenzy.

"Guys, you'd better turn on the TV and take a look."

Betty suddenly walked in from outside and said.

The TV screen showed Xia Yu grabbing Craig Wayne by the neck, throwing him up, and cleaving him into ashes with a single palm strike.

"Um, does this mean we don't have to go to the White House to fight Xia Yu?"

As everyone was engrossed in watching TV, Ant-Man asked timidly from the side.

"Nobody said they wanted to fight Xia."

The Captain left with a single sentence, then pulled General Ross out of the room.

"Xia, you can't kill these three people."

As soon as Xia Yu tore open the space, he saw everyone in the lobby on the first floor of the base, including General Ross and the three Congressman Xia Yu was going to kill.

The Captain knew Xia Yu's abilities; hiding the three of them would only lead to Xia Yu breaking through space and dying even faster. It was safer for everyone to just surround them.

As soon as Captain America spoke, everyone stood up and looked at Xia Yu nervously.

Only Natasha ran over and hugged Xia Yu tightly.

I'm worried about you. Could you please stop keeping everything bottled up inside?

Natasha's tone was tinged with sorrow, and tears welled up in her eyes as she looked at Xia Yu.

Xia Yu was a bit out of his mind today, and thought Natasha was worried about him, so he didn't take it to heart.

Instead, he patted Natasha on the shoulder to indicate that he was alright.

"Is this what you all think? You want to stop me from killing?"

Xia Yu, holding Natasha in one arm, faced all the Avengers and asked.

"Xia, listen to me. This whole thing started because of me. I misspoke, but now Craig Wayne is dead. These three will be handed over to the government. I guarantee they'll never leave prison. If you're still angry, I can arrange for them to die in prison. But you killed Craig Wayne in front of the whole world. Now that these three are dead, what will people think?"

"You now represent the entire Avengers. People outside will think the Avengers are above the law, and they'll feel unsafe. You're all strategic weapons of nuclear caliber. If we don't add an extra layer of protection, people won't feel safe, even if that protection is just for show!"

General Ross tried to reason with him, but Xia Yu was clearly unmoved and asked coldly.

"If I couldn't reverse time, they would have killed so many people. How should we settle this score? They even deliberately smeared the Avengers. If I don't kill them, does that mean everyone can just mess with the Avengers?"

Faced with Xia Yu's question, General Ross answered without hesitation.

"I assure you, no one will have any ill intentions after this. With your ability to reverse time, no one in this world will dare to harbor any ill intentions towards you."

General Ross's words made some sense, but Xia Yu ignored them and turned to the Avengers instead.

"Are you sure you want to stop me, huh?"

As you all know, melodrama doesn't suit me; things will turn around tomorrow.
