Su Ming naturally knew that power struggles were always like this. They were not problems that could be resolved with a word or two. But he had another idea—one that was not quite so noble and righteous.

Wonder Man was Zeus's illegitimate son, a half-human demigod and the next-generation heir of the Amazons. He was highly valued by them.

Aquawoman, meanwhile, was the current king of Atlantis and Poseidon's heir. She was of mixed Atlantean and human blood, wielded the trident representing divine authority, and held a very secure position of power.

Both sides were fighting over dominion of Earth, hoping to use war to choose a ruler. So Su Ming would give them one.

Humans had actually known how to do this since the Middle Ages. These demigods were simply too arrogant.

More than two hours later, Barry's wounds had healed. Su Ming and Bliss once again took human-powered transport back to Gotham.

From far away, they could see Gotham in chaos. The city's most luxurious Bowles Grand Hotel burned like a blazing torch. Even the heavy rain could not extinguish the terrifying fire, and thick smoke rose into the night sky.

Bliss stared at Su Ming expressionlessly. This was what he meant by not having too great an impact?

Su Ming shrugged. He was not going to admit anything anyway. Cindy had said she would make it all look like accidents, and an accidental fire was not bad.

"Back to the Batcave."

She let out a breath, feeling a little tightness in her chest.

Barry gave Su Ming a helpless look, as if to say, See? Look at the mess you two made.

Su Ming turned his head and whistled. I don't know anything anyway.

When they returned to the Batcave, the three found Alfred bandaging Cindy's wounds.
