Because her Ability can create illusions. Once her Ability is blocked, the illusions will disappear, and everyone will see her true face. Especially... when there's a big contrast between her true face and her current appearance, do you think she'd be scared?" Su Zhan nodded with satisfaction, smiling as he spoke.
"Create illusions? What a powerful Ability! What does she really look like then?" Eden asked curiously.
"I'll let you see when there's a chance later," Su Zhan said.
"Then who is her boss? This time... don't make me kiss you again," Eden asked.
Su Zhan looked at Eden and smiled, saying, "I've noticed you're quite curious. I bet what you really want to ask about is me, isn't it?"
"If you're willing to tell me, then of course that would be great," Eden didn't deny it.
"Her boss is Linderman, an old man with great power in both the underworld and the legitimate world, and he's also very rich. His true identity is a member of a mysterious organization, and he's also the current leader. This mysterious organization specializes in dealing with superpowered individuals. The Haitian used to work for this organization. However, I hypnotized him, so I guess they must know something went wrong, which is why they came looking for me."
"You can also hypnotize? Then... you wouldn't hypnotize me, would you?" Eden asked with a smile.
Su Zhan shrugged: "Do you think that's necessary?"
An hour later, Su Zhan and the two others emerged from the restaurant. Candace, who had been waiting outside, already somewhat impatiently, hurried over and said with annoyance, "Why are you so slow!"
"Do you know?"
Su Zhan looked at her with a brilliant smile, slowly placed his hand on Candace's head, and while smiling, said in an extremely gentle tone, "From now on, if you say one more word, I will make you lose your Ability. Believe me, my secretary really wants to see what you actually look like!"
Candace instinctively clamped her mouth shut, afraid she might make a sound.

Seeing Candace's reaction, Su Zhan smiled contentedly, withdrew his hand, and walked towards the commercial van that Candace had clearly driven.
Once inside the car, Su Zhan and Eden sat in the back, while the Haitian and Candace sat in the front.
Candace had wanted to say that they were just taking the car to a private airport to fly to Las Vegas. However, remembering Su Zhan's warning, she hesitated to speak. Especially when she saw Su Zhan and Eden immediately getting touchy-feely and intimately whispering in each other's ears in the back, she dared not disturb them even more.
The car was quiet, with only the voices of Su Zhan and Eden audible. It was unclear what Su Zhan had said that made Eden constantly chuckle.
Half an hour later, they arrived at a private airport. A helicopter was already prepared. They got out of the car and boarded the helicopter. After two hours of flight, they arrived on the rooftop platform of a building in Las Vegas.
"I told you, her boss is very rich."
Su Zhan held Eden as they disembarked from the plane, wrapping his arm around her waist, and said with a smile.
Upon entering, the interior was grand and luxurious. They arrived at a certain room, pushed the door open, and saw a person.
An old man with White hair and a White beard.
He was wearing a well-fitted suit, meticulously groomed, and had a somewhat benevolent appearance. Upon seeing Su Zhan, he walked over with a smile and said warmly, "Welcome to Las Vegas."
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Linderman," Su Zhan smiled and shook his hand, then introduced, "This is my secretary, Eden. As for that one, I don't think I need to introduce him."
Linderman glanced at the Haitian and nodded at Su Zhan.
That was his man, so of course, no introduction was needed.
Linderman walked to the nearby bar, invited Su Zhan and Eden to sit down, poured them drinks, and said with a smile, "There's a Chinese saying that 'a wise man speaks clearly.' I invited Mr. Su Zhan here, firstly, because I hope to get to know you, and secondly, because I hope to cooperate with you."
"I'm listening," Su Zhan said indifferently, sipping his drink.
"Although I don't know how Mr. Su Zhan learned the information, you probably already know some things. With your participation, I believe we can create the future!"
Su Zhan remained noncommittal, not speaking, displaying an attitude that clearly indicated this wasn't enough to impress him. Linderman wasn't surprised; he knew very well that a few words wouldn't persuade the other party, or rather... without concrete benefits, it wouldn't work.
"There are many people in this world with Abilities. The harm these people can inflict on society and humanity is imaginable. If they lose their Abilities, they naturally cannot harm others. And you, with these Abilities, can better help everyone and create the future!" Linderman looked at Su Zhan seriously, saying with some excitement, "You know my resources; this will be of immense benefit to you, to me, and to the future of society as a whole!"
"What do you think?" Su Zhan suddenly asked Eden.
Eden paused, then smiled charmingly: "You should make your own decisions about this kind of thing. I'm just your secretary."
"I like a secretary like you!" Su Zhan said with a smile, gently pinching Eden's slender waist, then turned to Linderman and said, "So, your purpose in cooperating with me is just to let me Devour certain people's Abilities? It's not that simple, is it?"
"You are very powerful, and of course, I still need your help," Linderman said with a smile.
"My goal is only to Devour Abilities. As for other things, it depends on my mood!" Su Zhan swirled his wine glass, took a sip, and looked at Linderman.
Linderman was slightly displeased, but a moment later, he smiled and said, "Of course, I won't force you to do anything. I believe that when the time comes, you will be willing to help voluntarily."
Su Zhan smiled and suddenly said, "It's a shame to come all the way to Las Vegas and not have a good time. Mr. Linderman, I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you to make the arrangements."
"I'll have someone arrange it. You can enjoy yourselves here to your heart's content, all expenses will be on me."
"Then thank you!"
Linderman winked at Candace, and Candace came over, ready to lead them to their accommodations.
"Oh, by the way, I think he's quite good to have around. So, Mr. Linderman, you don't mind, do you?" Su Zhan pointed at the Haitian and asked Linderman.
Linderman smiled and said nonchalantly, "Of course."
...
...
"Why is there only one room?"
Su Zhan and Eden entered the room arranged by Candace. After entering, Eden realized there was only one bedroom, with a large red round bed.
Su Zhan shrugged, saying, "Of course, the boss and secretary stay in the same room."
"That Linderman, what he said is definitely not that simple. Are you really going to cooperate with him?" Eden said with some concern.
"Such an abrupt change of topic? But, you pass." Su Zhan smiled and patted Eden's little bottom, saying casually. "Since he's willing to send superpowered individuals for me to Devour, I'd rather not run around. Beautiful women accompanying me, easy enjoyment, and Abilities for me to Devour, isn't that good?"
"As for his purpose, it has nothing to do with me. I don't care about his purpose."
"You're deceiving him? If he finds out, it could be very troublesome." Eden frowned, unsure whether she was worried or annoyed by Su Zhan's pat.
"You should worry about your own troubles. You can hide for a while, but not forever. Before long, you'll still be sleeping in the same bed as me!" Su Zhan chuckled.
"Then you just wait!" Eden finished, pushing Su Zhan, "I need to shower and change. You go out first."
"Alright, I'll go play at the casino downstairs first. Come find me when you're ready." Su Zhan said with a smile, then was pushed out by Eden.
"Bang!" Looking at the closed door, Su Zhan smiled and turned to go to the casino.
As he turned, he noticed a very tall woman standing nearby, arms crossed, revealing a white lace-patterned bra underneath. She smiled and said to him, "It seems your secretary doesn't listen to you very well. How about... a temporary replacement?"
Chapter 0134: Blonde Jessica
"Such as?" Su Zhan looked somewhat surprised at the tall blonde woman, or more accurately, at the cleavage between her crossed arms... With that height and slender build, her bust couldn't be too prominent, but when she squeezed them together like that, it was quite interesting, especially the subtly revealed lace-patterned bra that made one want to move her hands and explore further.
