Last time at the Superpower Alliance Headquarters, Lu Xiao had received a cordial reception from Mackenny.
This time, it was Edson who welcomed him with open arms.
When Edson came out of the stairway, his old face was as radiant as a chrysanthemum.
"Ah, Mr. Lu Xiao is here? Welcome! Isn't Miss Chen Fei with you?" Edson's whole demeanor overflowed with enthusiasm, and his smile grew even more pleasant upon not seeing Chen Fei.
"No, she's resting at home, I came over to talk to you about something," Lu Xiao said, his lips curving upward.
Edson had indeed become the Acting Alliance Leader, just as Chen Fei had said, and he had changed completely.
He had become mediocre, slick, transforming from a firm and incisive individual to one worldly and sophisticated.
"What a pity," Lu Xiao shook his head. He had been quite optimistic about Edson during the Mutant Exchange Competition.
He even once considered Edson as his primary enemy.
