Chapter 1316

X-Men world.

Void Island.

A dazzling portal of light suddenly lit up in front of the palace, and the guards responsible for protecting the palace rushed over immediately, seeing Su Quan and the others filing out of the portal.

"Master?"

"You've finally returned!"

Angel Salvadore flapped her wings and quickly came before Su Quan, her face full of excitement and joy.

For the people of this world, Su Quan had been gone for a full ten years, but for Su Quan, frequently traveling through different worlds and different times had left his concept of time and temporal perception in a mess.

Therefore, he did not use time as a standard, but experience!

This period of bustling experiences indeed gave the returning Su Quan a feeling of long separation, as if a lifetime had passed.

By the way, Su Quan had timed his travel to the ten-year mark; if it followed the normal flow of time, it couldn't have been exactly ten years!

Ten years had brought earth-shaking changes to Void Island again; besides the ever-changing architecture and environment, what surprised Su Quan most was the population on the island.

Counting both mutants and humans, there were a full eighty thousand people...

What is the concept of eighty thousand people?

In the sparsely populated United States, eighty thousand people is equivalent to the population of a medium-sized small city.

Void Island was qualified to be called Void City.

Su Quan's return ignited the enthusiasm of the people on the island; before long, the whole island was filled with the sound of gongs and drums, firecrackers, red flags fluttering, and a sea of people...

It was truly lively and boisterous!

Core personnel such as X-Factor, X-Force, and the Void Guard learned the news of Su Quan's return and also rushed over from all places as quickly as possible.

A grand gathering!

Su Quan sat above the steps in front of the palace, looking at the scene of people shoulder to shoulder and gathered together below, a sense of pride welling up in his heart.

Dozens, even hundreds of named heroes or villains, over eighty thousand basic combatants with mutant abilities—looking across the long river of Marvel, who else could achieve the same?

"With so many people, it's enough for you, right?" Su Quan turned his head and asked the White Queen with a smile.

The White Queen chuckled and nodded, asking in a low voice with some realization: "Are we going back?"

"It's time to go back."

"Don't forget, our initial goal was to replace super soldiers with mutants, and then focus on taking down the Time Variance Authority."

Since the title of controller of the multiverse timeline had already been proclaimed, one couldn't just have the name without the reality, right?

It was time for the Time Variance Authority to change its gates and change its dynasty.

The White Queen nodded and asked: "How much time do I have?"

"A week."

The White Queen said "um," a week was enough for her to arrange everything; after all, she had known from the beginning that one day in the future she would leave here, so many things had been prepared long ago!

The next day, early morning.

Su Quan woke up from the sea of people, washing and dressing while sensing the movements outside the Earth.

Solar flare.

The alien Jessica Chastain.

These were the last two things he was interested in in this world.

Calculating the time, the solar flare should appear soon; once the solar flare appeared, the aliens would follow closely to descend on Earth to plot for the Phoenix Force within Jean Grey.

Of course, this was in the movie.

In reality, Su Quan did not intend to let the aliens descend on Earth; after all, what he was truly interested in was the leader of the aliens, Smith, who looked like Jessica Chastain.

The so-called Jessica Chastain, whose real name was Margaret, currently worked at the Hellfire Club.

It was currently uncertain whether the alien Smith would possess her body or kill her and replace her after descending on Earth.

If it were the latter, Su Quan's interest would not be great; after all, he valued Margaret's appearance, not Smith's abilities.

Even if Smith possessed shapeshifting, energy absorption, extremely strong self-healing abilities, and bewitching psychic abilities, among Su Quan's subordinates, it could not be considered outstanding, let alone top-tier.

If it were Margaret's exterior and Smith's interior, then it would be worth collecting!

"Hum—"

In the brilliant galaxy, a fiery red solar flare was rapidly moving toward Earth.

Psychic power perceived it immediately!

"Coming early is not as good as coming at the right time."

Su Quan gave a faint smile to himself in the mirror and then teleported directly in front of the solar flare.

Boom!

The bright, blinding solar flare crashed directly into Su Quan.

Surging energy drilled into Su Quan's body in every possible way, and immediately after, a huge Phoenix totem accompanied by tangible flames appeared behind Su Quan.

"Hum!"

A powerful absorption ability erupted instantly, and the energy of the solar flare was instantly sucked over, directly devoured by the Phoenix Force!

Absorption!

Absorption!

Absorption!

Devour!

Devour!

Devour!

Su Quan in front of the solar flare was like a huge black hole, continuously devouring the energy rushing over!

In the movie, Jean Grey, who was executing a space mission, was hit by the solar flare, and the Phoenix Force in her body was passively activated, allowing her to survive, but she was therefore unable to suppress the Phoenix Force anymore, eventually becoming the Dark Phoenix.

Now that it was Su Quan, he didn't feel any sense of crisis or danger at all.

The Phoenix Force's devouring speed was far faster than the solar flare's impact speed; the solar flare's energy would be devoured by the Phoenix Force before it could even get close.

Su Quan let the Phoenix Force devour on its own and released his psychic power once again.

A few minutes later.

The solar flare disappeared, all energy was absorbed by the Phoenix Force, and Su Quan also sensed the person he was looking for!

Alien, Smith.

Smith and other aliens were in a spaceship; through the feedback of psychic power, they discovered the solar flare and the Phoenix Force that had absorbed the solar flare—that is, himself.

This is very reasonable!

If they were too far away, it would be impossible for them to arrive on Earth in the movie, and with a clear target locked on Jean Grey.

"D'Bari..."

Through psychic power, Su Quan already knew the identity of this group of aliens.

Regarding the D'Bari, he actually knew quite a bit.

The D'Bari lived on the fourth planet of the D'Bari star system, belonging to the Shi'ar Empire, one of the three major empires of the Marvel Universe.

This race is a plant-like humanoid, their skin color is green like the Skrulls, their eye color is generally white, without irises, and because their appearance resembles asparagus, they are also called "Asparagus People."

Smith, also known as Walker, also known as Starhammer, is the guardian of the D'Bari.

Now the D'Bari planet has been destroyed, the vast majority of the D'Bari have died, and only Smith, by chance, led a small number of his people to escape, preparing to find a new place to survive.
