At Zhang Zheng's Home
"Zhang Zheng, is this the power of time?"
Angel Zhin Xin noticed the green glow on the dining table and asked Zhang Zheng. She wasn't very knowledgeable about time, but she had seen Zhang Zheng use a similar power before, with a similar green light.
"Yes," Zhang Zheng replied. "I wasn't sure when you would return, so I prepared the food early this morning. The power of time fixed the dishes at the moment they were just cooked."
"Come and try them. Let me know if they taste good."
With a wave of his hand, the green glow of time faded, and a delightful aroma filled the air.
"Not bad at all, my idol," Angel Leng commented, not waiting for Zhang Zheng and Zhin Xin. She grabbed some chopsticks and started eating, praising Zhang Zheng in the process.
"Well, I guess it's okay!" Zhang Zheng thought of Angel Yen and how both she and Angel Leng seemed so familiar, without any awareness of proper guest manners.
He wondered if Angel Yen had informed Queen Kesha about the situation, and Zhang Zheng felt a pang of guilt. Although he liked Angel Yen for her beauty and bold personality, his feelings were not as deep as his love for Zhin Xin, which had developed from a genuine connection.
He felt conflicted, knowing it wouldn't be fair to either Zhin Xin or Angel Yen if he were to be involved with both. His gaze shifted to Zhin Xin, feeling increasingly guilty.
"Hey, my idol," Angel Leng interrupted his thoughts. "Why are there only two sets of utensils? Aren't you and Zhin Xin planning to eat together?"
Zhang Zheng, frustrated by Angel Leng's bluntness, mentally cursed. However, he responded, "Oh, I didn't expect Leng would be here. I'm sorry for not preparing properly."
Angel Leng was aware that Zhang Zheng hadn't anticipated her and Ling Xi's presence. She felt disgruntled because, according to A Chui and Mo Yi, Zhang Zheng was supposed to be quite interesting on Earth. Yet, upon her arrival, he wasn't particularly welcoming. Seeing Zhang Zheng and Zhin Xin so engrossed in each other only added to her dissatisfaction, leading her to purposely provoke him.
"Zhin Xin, my idol, you should come and eat too!"
"I can't finish all this by myself," Angel Ling Xi added, trying to make up for the disruption she felt she had caused.
She didn't have Angel Leng's complex feelings but wanted to make amends for intruding on Zhang Zheng and Zhin Xin's private time.
"Oh, okay," Zhang Zheng said, pulling Zhin Xin to the table and summoning two additional sets of utensils with a wave of his hand.
Angel Leng and Angel Ling Xi were surprised by this display, realizing that Zhang Zheng was using his powers to create items out of thin air, rather than moving them through a micro wormhole.
Zhang Zheng seemed to notice their astonishment and explained, "It's not some special power. Scientifically speaking, it's a combination of void and anti-void abilities. In mystical terms, it's about distorting and modifying the rules of reality."
"If someone were to teach you the power of the Galaxy, you could achieve it too."
Zhang Zheng, enjoying showing off his abilities, was keen to impress the angels, especially with Zhin Xin among them.
"Void?"
"So, the power of the Galaxy is about void and anti-void?"
Zhin Xin murmured, intrigued.
"Actually, the Galaxy's power only possesses anti-void abilities, which is why I need your help," Zhang Zheng said, gently taking Zhin Xin's hand and smiling.
"Sure, if there's anything you need, just let me know. I'll definitely help you."
Zhin Xin was thrilled at the thought of assisting Zhang Zheng, recalling the impressive display of power he showed when defeating Morgana the previous day.
"I hope you can help the Galaxy's power develop its abilities faster."
"You have the void power, and Ge Xiaolun has the anti-void power. If you can teach him, he'll develop his abilities quickly."
"And once he grows, I'll be able to leave Earth with peace of mind."
Zhang Zheng mentioned Ge Xiaolun's potential, feeling overwhelmed by Earth's troubles and eager to leave.
"How do you know I'm equipped with the secondary biological engine?"
Zhin Xin asked curiously, since only a few people knew about it.
"I sensed the presence of void energy from you and Angel Yen. I've also felt it around Snow with Carl. I don't believe there's a connection between Snow and my little Zhin Xin. Given Carl's expertise in void research, I made an educated guess."
Zhang Zheng spoke confidently, although he was just guessing based on the plot.
Zhin Xin accepted his explanation, though she was concerned about using the secondary biological engine, a trump card left by Queen Kesha.
"Don't worry. You're my guardian angel. If I help you activate the secondary biological engine, Queen Kesha won't blame you."
Zhang Zheng comforted Zhin Xin, sensing her hesitation.
"I'd like to get Queen Kesha's approval first, if possible."
After some thought, Zhin Xin raised her head and said.
"Alright, let's eat first. Afterward, we'll contact Queen Kesha. I'm sure she won't be upset with you."
Seeing Zhin Xin agree, Zhang Zheng was relieved.
Angel Leng and Angel Ling Xi had overheard the entire conversation. They were taken aback by the discussion about void research, which was something angels typically denied. The atmosphere at the table became tense as the topic of void powers cast a shadow over the meal.
