Chapter 822

Jean Grey hurriedly denied it, but she didn't have much confidence, and explained hesitantly: "I don't know what's going on either. From the first time I saw you, I felt you were very special. It was a feeling I couldn't describe; it was just... very attractive to me."

"Later on, the feeling changed again, becoming, how should I put it, a feeling that you were very close. Your figure has always lingered in my heart, making me feel restless and unable to control my desire to get close to you!"

"I, I can't tell if this is a good impression, if I've fallen for you, or if it's because of some other reason."

Jean Grey laid her cards on the table, pouring out all the thoughts in her heart.

Su Quan was thoughtful; he probably knew what was going on.

If things had developed normally, Jean Grey should have developed emotional bonds with Cyclops and Jin Ganglang one after another. After all, in American comics, whether they are heroes or villains, emotional experiences are like child's play.

You like him today, you like her tomorrow, and in the end, a circle of people like each other or have liked each other, and then everyone is still good friends!

Now, because of Su Quan, reality had changed. Cyclops never joined the school, never became an X-Man, and certainly never got together with Jean Grey; instead, he was sent to another timeline by Su Quan early on.

And Jin Ganglang?

Because of his interception, Anna never met Jin Ganglang, nor did she come to the X-Mansion with Jin Ganglang. Naturally, Jin Ganglang wouldn't know Jean Grey.

So now, Jean Grey's emotional history was very clean, so it was possible for her to fall for him after meeting a few times. After all, his looks, aura, identity, and ability halo were all there!

Of course, there was another possibility.

That was the influence of the Phoenix Force!

The abnormality during their first meeting might be related to his powerful psychic ability. After all, the Phoenix Force is the embodiment of psychic power, and it makes sense that Su Quan's strong psychic power would attract the Phoenix Force.

As for later...

Don't forget, Su Quan also has the Phoenix Force.

The same as Jean Grey's, but not from the same source—the Phoenix Force that belongs uniquely to Su Quan.

Su Quan's Phoenix Force is similar to the Speed Force; they are both independent and can be controlled by him at will.

It's just that his Phoenix Force is not as powerful as Jean Grey's.

Highlight this.

This refers to the Phoenix Force represented by Jean Grey, not the Phoenix Force that Jean Grey possesses and can use. After all, the Phoenix Force in her body is not complete!

Su Quan can control his own Phoenix Force, so he wasn't affected, nor did he produce any negative or other influences.

Jean Grey couldn't do that. She couldn't control the Phoenix Force at all, and because of the Phoenix Force, she even developed a dark second personality—Dark Phoenix!

Although the Dark Phoenix personality hadn't awakened yet, hadn't taken the lead, or taken over her body, Jean Grey couldn't stop the potential influence.

In other words, the strange feelings Jean Grey had for Su Quan were very likely due to the mutual attraction between the Phoenix Force and the Phoenix Force.

Uh... Su Quan didn't admit this possibility.

What do you mean? Am I not handsome enough???

"A moment ago it was a secret crush, but now it's like a confession. Do you want me to give you a chance?"

"Yes!"

"No, don't!"

After Jean Grey blurted it out, she immediately changed her answer. Regarding her own feelings, she didn't want to be confused.

She wanted to figure out if it was her own true heart, or... or because of the Phoenix Force!

"You said before that you could take away the Phoenix Force?" Jean Grey took a secret breath and asked in a deep voice.

Su Quan nodded: "I can."

"Can, can you take it away? I know you said that even if you take it away, it will come back, but I want to know if my feelings for you will change without the Phoenix Force!"

Su Quan thought for a moment and said: "I can help you, but not now. You know that Wan Ciwang's matter hasn't been resolved yet. If you lose control or lose your power during this period, the Professor doesn't have enough manpower to stop Wan Ciwang and save the world."

Jean Grey said gratefully: "I understand, thank you!"

Changing the subject, Su Quan asked with interest: "Did you bring Luo Bote back? How is his condition?"

"Brought him back, he's in the infirmary, Storm is watching him."

"Take me to see him; he should be dying soon."

Jean Grey nodded and led Su Quan to the infirmary.

In the infirmary, Luo Bote was lying on the hospital bed, his face weak and pale, with equipment monitoring his physical condition attached to him.

Storm was sitting not far away, feeling somewhat bored. Seeing Jean Grey and Su Quan enter, she said with some annoyance: "What are you here for?"

Su Quan ignored Storm, who was both unskilled and loved to pick fights, and walked straight to Luo Bote.

Luo Bote didn't know if he was in a coma or asleep; his eyes were tightly closed, his breathing was normal, and there was no sign that he would kick the bucket at any moment.

"I wonder if a mutant transformed by Wan Ciwang can drop rewards..." Su Quan thought to himself, and directly released his psychic ability on Luo Bote. ===== CHAPTER 824 =====
