S.H.I.E.L.D.. must have already sent people to investigate this strange situation.
However, their investigation revealed that 177A Bleecker Street was just an ordinary antique shop.
Selling some old furniture and antique clocks, etc.
The people inside were all clean-cut, and there wasn't a single thing that seemed amiss.
That makes sense. The Sorcerer Supreme The Ancient One Skyfather Level, was a master of space magic, with unparalleled skill.
If she didn't want to appear, S.H.I.E.L.D.. wouldn't be able to find a clue no matter how hard they investigated. (Although the actress Ancient One is female, Marvel's official information doesn't specify a gender, so let's just assume she's a woman. As for where the Ancient One from, let's just say she's Chinese according to the comics; that's all I remember!)
The Ancient One's sudden appearance, and the fact that she threw a business card with an address on it near Mjolnir, suggests that this matter is definitely related to Thor or Asgard.
As for the nature of the relationship, Qin Xiao would only know after going there in person.
It seems like I absolutely have to go to the opening ceremony of the Stark Expo.
Unable to wait for Thor, Qin Xiao had no choice but to take the initiative to visit him again.
To his surprise, this big, simple-minded guy had somehow reconciled with Jane and they were back to normal.
The two of them returned to that state where, every time they exchanged a glance, sparks would fly between them.
He calmed this girl down so quickly, he must have said a lot of sweet words, that's a jerk.
Qin Xiao felt indignant.
However, he still offered Thor a few words of comfort, saying that he had to go out for a while and asked him to wait for him to return.
As for the Ancient One, no matter how Coulson reported to Nick Fury, Qin Xiao went when he needed to, said what he needed to say when he returned, and didn't say a single word that he shouldn't have.
I flew all the way from New Mexico to New York, hitched a ride with Stark Industries ' car and driver, and got myself to 177A Bleecker Street.
This street is located in Manhattan of New York.
He didn't know how the Three Sanctums operated. If their locations could be changed, Qin Xiao would rather rent out the temples and find a cheaper place for himself.
That way, in Avengers: Infinity War, Wang Tangdang, a powerful sorcerer, wouldn't be so poor that he couldn't even afford to eat.
Standing at the entrance, I criticized the temple for wasting space on a busy street.
After hesitating for a moment, Qin Xiao was just about to reach out and knock on the door.
A golden light flashed beneath his feet, and a portal appeared beneath him.
Suddenly, the ground beneath my feet gave way, and I fell down the hula hoop.
In a study on the second floor of the corresponding temple, Qin Xiao fell out of a hula hoop.
He collapsed onto a single sofa.
Three bookshelves, each covering one wall, form a small, square, doorless study.
The three single sofas were arranged in the direction of the bookshelf. After Qin Xiao fell down, there was an empty sofa on his right, and directly in front of him was the Ancient One was looking down and reading a book.
It was the Ancient One's spell that transported Qin Xiao directly from the doorway to the second floor.
But after arriving, the Ancient One fell silent and simply lowered her head to read.
That's the advantage of having power; you can act tough and domineering without anyone daring to say a word.
If it were an ordinary person, they would call you over, then lower their head and read without saying a word.
Qin Xiao would have slapped him so hard he'd fallen flat on his face, the book in his hand flying into the air.
However, since the person in front of him was Sorcerer Supreme the Ancient One, Qin Xiao only complained in his heart and did not dare to make a move.
Of course, Qin Xiao has never been the type to sit still.
He watched as the Ancient One kept staring at her book without even glancing at him.
He pulled a cigar from his pocket and started puffing on it right in front of the Ancient One.
I'll spray you in the face if you stay silent and see if you can handle it.
With a mischievous grin on his face, Qin Xiao took a deep drag and casually blew a large puff of smoke toward the Ancient One.
The Sorcerer Supreme is simply the Sorcerer Supreme.
The Ancient One didn't even look up, when suddenly a golden hula hoop the size of an ashtray appeared in front of Qin Xiao's eyes.
Standing less than half a meter in front of Qin Xiao, the moment this small teleportation portal appeared, the smoke Qin Xiao exhaled rushed towards it.
Qin Xiao looked closely and saw that there was a snow-capped mountain in front of him. Although he didn't know where it was, it was definitely a high-altitude place.
The weather was clear and there was little wind. Shang-Chi, Qin Xiao's place was moving without any wind, and the smoke, along with the ash from his cigarette, drifted towards the small hole.
The effect is similar to smoking through a cracked window while driving at high speed. (Actually, if you actually opened a small portal in a room at high altitude, all the books on the bookshelf would probably fly over, but don't worry about the details. After all, the Ancient One always finds a way, doesn't she?)
Wow, this ashtray even has a built-in ventilation system!
"An ashtray is great! If I had one in my bedroom, I wouldn't need an air circulation system, and I could even save on a trash can!"
Qin Xiao made conversation, as he was indeed feeling some pressure facing the Ancient One at this stage, especially since he didn't know why she had called him here.
"If you turn one on in your bedroom and a blizzard hits, it could fill your house with snow in an hour. Are you sure you want to turn one on? I can help."
The Ancient One smiled and looked up, saying...
"You've come all this way, don't you have anything to say, or anything you want to ask me?"
The Ancient One finally closed the book and placed it aside.
"Yes, of course I have questions. Since I'm already at the door, why did you use a portal to pull me up here? Why didn't you just pick me up from New Mexico? The plane tickets are expensive."
Since the Ancient One had spoken first, Qin Xiao tossed his cigar into the ashtray and immediately asked a question that was by no means important.
"First of all, I don't need to pay for the plane ticket. Secondly, if I were to go down and open the door for you, or open a portal to open one for you, the energy consumption for such a short distance would be about the same as teleporting you back up!"
The Ancient One waved his hand to close the small portal, then answered Qin Xiao's question in a serious tone.
That's something I can't refute. I never expected that the Ancient One would actually do such a serious calculation for herself.
Qin Xiao had no choice but to follow her lead and ask.
"I wonder what brings you here?"
Presumably having asked the question that the Ancient One needed, she looked at Qin Xiao seriously and said...
" Odin and I are friends. He exiled his son to Earth and went into a deep sleep, so of course I had to keep an eye on him. But I'm surprised because someone who shouldn't be there has appeared. You shouldn't be in that place."
"So I'm curious, why are you in a place you shouldn't be, and haven't been arrested by the Time Variance Authority yet?"
