Leave a Five-Star Review Later

At this time, Strange had yet to experience the car accident that would change his life. He was still the proud, arrogant genius surgeon.

After overtaking Lu Xi in his Lamborghini, Strange even deliberately honked twice.

The gesture seemed partly boastful and partly provocative.

A smile tugged at Lu Xi's lips, and a competitive urge immediately rose within him. On the spot, he decided to accept the race.

His gaze sharpened as he pressed harder on the accelerator. The Bugatti shot forward like an enraged black panther.

And so, the two cars chased each other down the highway, launching into a fierce street race.

Their speed kept climbing, soon reaching 300 km/h.

With his exceptional control, Lu Xi handled it with ease.

But the car itself was beginning to struggle under such extreme speed, its body starting to sway slightly.

Daisy felt as though she were about to be flung out of the car.

She squeezed her eyes shut, gripped the handrail tightly with both hands, and screamed at the top of her lungs:

"I'm going to die, I'm going to die..."

Lu Xi frowned. The race had not even been decided yet, so how could he admit defeat so easily?

Suddenly, an idea struck him. The Divine Power within him quietly spread out, steadily enveloping the entire vehicle.

Something miraculous happened. The Bugatti, which had been swaying slightly, immediately stabilized.

A faint smile appeared on Lu Xi's lips. This trick really worked.

In an instant, the speed surged like a wild horse breaking free of its reins, briefly reaching 350 km/h.

The Bugatti became a streak of black lightning, instantly pulling level with the Lamborghini.

Lu Xi looked at Strange in the other car and wagged a finger at him. The meaning was obvious: Kid, your driving skills aren't good enough.

The moment Strange caught sight of the gesture, he flew into a rage. He floored the accelerator again, but no matter what he did, he could not shake Lu Xi.

Lu Xi simply stomped the accelerator all the way down, as though it had been welded in place.

This time, he left Strange far behind, gradually disappearing from sight.

Only after completely losing the other car did Lu Xi slowly ease off the accelerator and reduce his speed.

Daisy's chest heaved violently, her face flushed red from the intense fear.

She gasped for breath and said shakily:

"That scared me to death! You're completely insane!"

Lu Xi smiled and comforted her:

"Relax, you won't die. If something really happens, I'll just go to Hell and drag you back."

Daisy's eyes lit up as she asked eagerly:

"Really? You can do that?"

Lu Xi was not entirely sure.

"Uh... probably."

Just then, flashing red and blue lights suddenly appeared behind the car, followed by the piercing wail of a siren.

Lu Xi had been pulled over by the NYPD for severely speeding.

A stern-faced officer walked over and knocked hard on the window.

"Sir, please show me your driver's license and insurance!"

Lu Xi froze. "Uh..."

He immediately realized what he had forgotten. He did not even have a driver's license.

Just as Lu Xi was feeling awkward, a black S.H.I.E.L.D. SUV drove over and slowly came to a stop.

The door opened, and two suited agents stepped out.

They first politely showed their credentials to the officer. Then, one of them stepped forward to speak with him.

"Officer, don't get worked up. We're with the FBI. He's one of ours!"

When S.H.I.E.L.D. operated outside, impersonating personnel from other agencies was practically standard procedure.

The other agent hurried to Lu Xi's window, respectfully handed him a driver's license, and said:

"My lord, this is the driver's license we arranged for you."

Lu Xi accepted the license and said with some surprise:

"Your service is pretty thorough, and you're efficient too. I'll leave you a five-star review later."

The agent's face darkened as he said helplessly:

"My lord, uh... our human world has traffic laws."

Apparently afraid that Lu Xi might be displeased, he hurriedly explained:

"Otherwise, it would be troublesome for you if you kept getting stopped by the NYPD, wouldn't it?"

Lu Xi waved a hand and said with slight resignation:

"Fine, fine, I get it." He then started the car and drove toward the villa.

After arriving at the villa, Daisy's legs had gone weak. She could barely move and could not get out of the car at all.

"Lord Lucifer, I have no strength left!"

Seeing this, Lu Xi smiled helplessly and reached out to gently carry her down.

Daisy naturally nestled against him, her eyes filled with dreamy intoxication as she said in a soft, sweet voice:

"That was so thrilling..."

As she spoke, her gaze seemed to cling to him, full of a different kind of meaning.

Lu Xi instantly understood what that look meant. The corners of his lips curled upward as he carried her straight inside.

The next morning, sunlight streamed through the gaps in the curtains and fell across the four-meter-wide bed.

Daisy slowly woke up and got ready to climb out of bed, only to find her legs aching badly and her walk especially awkward.

When Lu Xi saw her like that, he tilted his head and wondered whether he had been too rough last night.

If only I had some kind of healing ability right now.

The moment the thought occurred to him, Lu Xi immediately wanted to try it.

He raised a hand, and a gentle strand of Divine Power glimmered faintly as he lightly flicked it toward Daisy.

In an instant, Daisy felt a warm current spread through her entire body. Her soreness and discomfort vanished completely.

Her eyes widened. It was as though she had instantly been restored to full health, and she exclaimed in delight:

"Oh! You can do that too?"

Seeing Daisy's transformation, Lu Xi was very satisfied as well. A smile appeared on his face.

"I just figured it out too."

New ability—Healing Spell acquired √

Daisy excitedly bounced twice in place, feeling the ease and vitality in her body, then volunteered:

"I'll go make breakfast!"

Her first time had been with a mythical figure. Not only did she not regret it, but every time she thought about it, she became excited all over again.

Before long, breakfast was ready.

The two sat at the dining table, eating at an unhurried pace.

Strictly speaking, Lu Xi no longer seemed to need food for his body's sake.

But occasionally enjoying the pleasure of delicious food and satisfying his appetite was also a kind of enjoyment.

Lu Xi turned on the television, wanting to relax for a while.

But he saw a news report announcing Tony Stark's mysterious disappearance in the Middle East.

His brows lifted slightly. Looks like the plot of Iron Man has already begun.

Lu Xi had not previously given much thought to how he should deal with the original plot of the Marvel Universe.

If he got involved too deeply, it would inevitably trigger a butterfly effect.

If that happened, the advantage of his foreknowledge would likely vanish completely.

If it brought that purple potato Thanos here too early, he was not sure whether his current strength would be enough to defeat him.

But if he stayed completely out of it, then coming to the Marvel Universe would feel like a wasted trip.

After thinking it over, Lu Xi decided it was time to visit the Ancient One and consult her about this matter while he was at it.

After all, when it came to handling things like butterfly effects, the Sorcerer Supreme was undoubtedly an expert among experts.

He turned to Daisy and said:

"I need to go out for a bit. Stay home and watch whatever you want. Don't run around."

Daisy nodded obediently. "Got it."

When Lu Xi drove up to the entrance of 177A Bleecker Street,

before he could even raise a hand to knock, the front door slowly opened on its own.

The Ancient One was already standing inside waiting for him, as though she had long known Lu Xi would come at this time.
