Chapter 20: “Encountering” Natasha again

In the process of achieving his goal, Bi Xiao found that eliminating a piece of trash and also saving some innocent children was beneficial in every way without any drawbacks.

After making up his mind, Bi Xiao continued to experiment with the development of magical powers, mainly refining his control over magic.

Fortunately, he wasn’t a mutant enhanced human prone to emotional instability due to a sudden surge in power, which could become uncontrollable.

His enhancement was comprehensive, including physical health, magical power, and cognition, all integrated.

The surge of power seemed naturally mastered, limited to what he could use and manage quite well, allowing for some creativity but not reaching a precise and subtle level of control.

That's when Bi Xiao had to refine it himself.

He tried various methods and finally established a magic circuit within his body. These circuits, spreading throughout his body via blood vessels and meridians, facilitated the growth of magical power while keeping the body's cells and organs constantly strengthened.

Additionally, he multitasked by manipulating magic to perform transformations in the palm of his hand, such as forming shapes like lions, tigers, or dragons.

The hair and patterns were meticulously crafted.

Or he could manipulate magic at the cellular level to enhance metabolism, protein synthesis, DNA replication, cell division, and maintain nervous system health.

In general, he performed the finest manipulations of magic.

Regardless of the method, it was greatly beneficial to his body.

As the saying goes, "Eat your meals bite by bite, and walk step by step." Bi Xiao was different; he could eat a lot and walk fast without overeating or falling.

Quite rational.

Bi Xiao glanced around; two hundred-meter-diameter pits and collapsed ruins made it look like the area had been bombed by the military. The noise he made was considerable, and although it was in the suburbs with the nearest human settlement a kilometer away, the massive explosion sound would still likely attract attention.

Bi Xiao saw the woman and chuckled inwardly but agreed: "You weren’t this polite before, Jenny. Please, have a seat."

"It’s been a while, I’ve been so busy with the clinic, I haven’t had time to cook, so I came here. I didn’t expect to run into you."

The woman was naturally Natasha, an undercover S.H.I.E.L.D agent, who seemed to be complaining but was really just providing a legitimate reason for being there.

Bi Xiao understood her implication but didn’t expose her.

Watching Jenny order quite a bit of food, obviously for the sake of authenticity, they started to chat casually.

"I haven’t seen you around for a few days, you haven’t been out for your morning runs?"

"I’ve been reading at home recently, so you know."

I understand all too well, you’ve been quite busy these days.

Natasha pretended to understand, but inside she was skeptical. Coulson had informed her of a bizarre incident at a Brooklyn bar named Stonewall, where a massacre had unfolded with many strange details.

Witness testimonies described a female bartender turning to ash after being beheaded, and sounds of battle indicating a fight, but no bodies were found afterward.

Many guns, ammunition, and bullet holes were left at the scene, with some ash tested showing no DNA information.

Just some scattered blood samples.

Considering Bi Xiao’s departure and subsequent taxi driver’s testimony, along with the surveillance footage being taken, she and Coulson were convinced that the Stonewall bar incident was the work of the seemingly cheerful and handsome man before her.

Despite many strange and puzzling elements, Natasha had t
