The Scarlet Witch standing before Qin Yi frowned.
The sheer amount of information seemed to have left her unable to sort through it all at once.
She stared intently at Qin Yi, then spoke after a moment.
"So, you want to have children with me?"
Qin Yi was not the only one shocked by the Scarlet Witch's words.
Behind Qin Yi, Sorcerer Supreme Wong, America, and Doctor Strange Stephen, who was Dreamwalking, stood behind magical shields. The witch's words and Qin Yi's thoughts left all three frozen in shock for a long while.
Wong sighed inwardly. This unfamiliar Sorcerer Supreme was truly a fierce man—a fierce man of Kamar-Taj.
America looked at Qin Yi with utter confusion and incomprehension. Someone actually wanted to have children with that demon-like woman?
Stephen's puzzled gaze lingered for only a moment before he understood.
Were they planning to use forbidden magic to create the two children Wanda had imagined?
"No, I'm not. I never had that idea."
Having come back to his senses, Qin Yi hurriedly denied it three times.
Just as Qin Yi was considering how to persuade the Scarlet Witch to try using magic and witchcraft to see whether they could create the twins she had longed for day and night—
An unexpected change occurred.
The strange energy previously absorbed by the Scarlet Witch gradually became violent, and the witch's eyes began to cloud over.
Her aura grew stronger and stronger, and scarlet energy instantly blanketed the entire summit of Wundagore Mountain.
America's pained cry came from behind Qin Yi.
Stephen and Wong hurriedly prepared to check on her.
The instant they turned around, a surge of energy dragged both of them into the air as well.
Qin Yi turned back and saw scarlet energy covering all three of them, as though it had pierced into their skin.
America and Wong's life force was being rapidly drained away.
Stephen was already a corpse, and the witch dragged his Dreamwalking consciousness out of that body.
Qin Yi hurriedly waved his hand, cutting off the energy's devouring of America and Wong's life force.
He then flung out several spells with both hands, dragging the three of them aside as he wrestled with the scarlet energy.
Qin Yi's own energy shielded them, distinctly divided from the witch's scarlet energy across the two sides of the mountaintop.
What horrified Qin Yi was that the energy he released before him was dwindling, while the scarlet energy reached him in no time.
He had never imagined that, even with Fairy Force, he would one day have his own energy absorbed by someone else.
Qin Yi stared blankly at the witch across from him. Her cloudy eyes were fixed on him, and a sinister smile curled across her lips.
The scarlet energy quickly encircled them completely. Just as it tried to further absorb Qin Yi's energy—
A tiny vortex emerged above Qin Yi's head.
When the witch saw that vortex, a voice that did not belong to her screamed,
"No!!"
A terrifying pulling force spread from the vortex, searching all around for targets.
It swiftly devoured every last trace of scarlet energy on the mountaintop, while the witch desperately resisted the vortex's tearing pull.
The ever-expanding vortex sent out several more strands of force, completely surrounding her.
Accompanied by her unwilling cries, the energy within her began to be crazily devoured by the vortex.
The swallowed energy rapidly poured into Qin Yi's body.
As all the Scarlet Witch's energy was devoured—
The cloudiness in her eyes gradually faded. She lay weakly on the ground. At the moment when she had nearly lost herself and gone berserk, the loss of that strange energy had brought her back to her senses.
On the mountaintop—
The group lay weakly on the ground, gasping for breath. Stephen looked thankfully at Wanda, who had returned to normal.
He stood up, preparing to thank the unfamiliar sorcerer.
Then an aura that made the entire universe tremble erupted from Qin Yi.
The mountain ranges surrounding Wundagore Mountain turned to dust in an instant.
A seductive voice kept echoing through Qin Yi's mind.
"Eat them. Eat them... They're all mine. Eat them..."
Qin Yi forcibly resisted the urge to swallow them and painfully turned toward Dreamwalking Stephen, shouting,
"Quick... get out of that shattered universe."
Though they did not know what had happened, they could all see that something was terribly wrong with Qin Yi.
America hurriedly opened a portal leading to that shattered universe.
The shattered universe.
An abandoned sanctum stood at the end of the portal.
Beside it, a three-eyed Stephen lay on the ground with iron spikes piercing his body. He had clearly been dead for a long time.
The original Stephen, who had just been Dreamwalking, rushed out of the sanctum while pulling Christina by the hand.
After the two of them passed through the portal and reached Wong—
The nearly out-of-control Qin Yi rushed inside. He looked back and waved his hand, closing the portal.
Qin Yi knelt on one knee at the entrance of the abandoned sanctum, clutching his head with both hands as he roared in agony.
"Aah!"
The vortex above Qin Yi's head grew larger and larger.
It did not stop until it had become as large as the entire desolate Earth.
The vortex's terrifying pulling force dragged at the abandoned Earth. In less than a moment, the entire planet vanished before it.
This shattered universe had been destroyed because—
The three-eyed Doctor Strange of this universe had crazily used the Time Stone to repeatedly alter an absolute point in time in order to save his girlfriend. The entire universe had collapsed and been destroyed, leaving only him behind on that uninhabited Earth.
Marvel Main Universe.
Earth.
Mokong Tower.
Wanda waited in the living room for several days, but Qin Yi never appeared.
She became increasingly anxious, pacing back and forth in the living room. Suddenly, she stopped, remembering what Qin Yi had said before leaving several days ago.
Wanda drew a golden portal with one hand and stepped through it.
After returning to Kamar-Taj, Wanda hurried toward Ancient One's room.
Without knocking, she burst straight inside.
Ancient One, who had been making tea, looked up at the figure rushing in with a puzzled expression.
"What is it, Wanda?"
"Master, Qin still hasn't come back."
Wanda then told Ancient One what had happened several days earlier.
Upon hearing this—
Ancient One pondered for a while. Her eyes, filled with the light of wisdom, looked at Wanda as she spoke.
"Perhaps Qin has gone home. Go with your senior sister and ask at Qin's home."
Ancient One watched Wanda hurriedly turn and run out, sighing inwardly.
"Kid, this master can only help you this much."
New York.
Howard Estate.
A large number of medical personnel gathered in the estate's courtyard, nervously staring at the ward door as they discussed possible measures in low voices.
Just moments ago—
Howard Stark, founder of Stark Industries, and his wife had suddenly fallen ill.
As the world's most famous tycoon, Howard Estate naturally had private doctors living nearby and on standby at all times. Moreover, with Howard and his wife's health worsening recently, Tony had practically brought the world's best doctors and medical equipment into the estate.
That morning, while the elderly couple had been playing in the courtyard with their granddaughter, they had suddenly fainted.
Little Morgan had been so frightened that she desperately called for her uncle. In her young heart, her uncle was omnipotent.
But Qin Yi had already left this universe several days ago.
With the help of the servants and butler, a group of doctors quickly carried Howard and his wife onto hospital beds.
Pepper, who had rushed back from the company, held the crying little Morgan as she stood anxiously outside the ward.
Tony stood helplessly nearby. He had lost count of how many times he had called Qin Yi. At this moment, he hated himself more than ever for not possessing powers like Qin Yi's.
What he did not know was that the Healing Spell had little effect on Howard and his wife. Qin Yi had secretly been transferring life force to them all this time.
But Qin Yi had never been able to find the reason why Howard and his wife's life force was rapidly draining away.
At that moment, a golden portal appeared in Qin Yi's room within Howard Estate.
Wanda curiously examined the furnishings in Qin Yi's room, while her senior sister Jean Grey took Wanda's hand and familiarly led her toward the living room.
No one was in the living room.
When they reached the courtyard and saw the large number of medical personnel, Jean Grey hurriedly pulled Wanda toward Tony.
When Tony saw Qin Yi's senior sister, he immediately ran over and asked,
"Where's Qin Yi?"
Wanda stared at Tony Stark, and her emotions suddenly collapsed.
The enemy Wanda and Pietro had obsessed over stood right before her, but why...
Why was he the older brother of the person she loved?
She did not know how she would face Qin Yi in the future.
Until she clearly heard... what Tony said.
"My parents have fallen ill. Do you know where my little brother is?"
