Lin Feng deliberately showed a dismissive look.
"Aren't you a child?"
"You..."
Lin Jili pointed a small, angry hand, but was speechless, feeling there were no suitable words to retort.
Ah, yes, she had lived for thousands of years, but the time she truly gained self-awareness was not long.
Moreover, Lin Feng himself was like her irresponsible father.
He had saved her when she was about to dissipate, and provided her with a temporary body.
Now, she ate and drank well at his place every day.
Lin Jili recalled various things she had seen before; children who rebelled against their parents invariably faced disciplinary action rooted in love.
Instinctively covering her little backside, Lin Jili let out a whimper, turned her head, and went to pet the cat with Martina.
Although she didn't know if Lin Feng was the kind of "brutal" parent she had seen in videos, forget it, the Cosmic Emperor wouldn't bother with such people!
Lin Feng chuckled at this.
This was intentional on his part, and the atmosphere became joyful again.
At such a young age, she shouldn't be troubled by adult matters.
Soon, Lin Jili cast aside her worries about the Cosmic Heart fragments and returned to being a carefree, chuunibyo child.
Not long after, Susan and Wanda also returned.
After quickly preparing dinner, they sat around the dining table, chatting about amusing incidents from their days, creating a warm and peaceful atmosphere.
However, Lin Feng, while eating, pondered the scenes he had just witnessed.
Since the Goddess of Death had seen him, Lin Feng's first stop had to be to find Hela, the Goddess of Death.
Currently, Lin Feng was not clear about the strength of this Goddess of Death, Hela, and this move might be a bit risky.
According to Lin Feng's personality, a more prudent approach would be to first seek out the unclaimed Cosmic Heart fragments.
But he feared that Hela might directly attack his universe.
Therefore, Lin Feng had to choose to strike first, to proactively confront the trouble before it appeared.
As for the other two scenes with living beings, they had not turned around before Lin Feng broke the connection.
Seeing only their backs, and the time being short, Lin Feng had not recognized who they were.
However, after dealing with Hela, it would be their turn.
Lin Feng was contemplating his next course of action, while Hela, at this moment, was floating in the endless void.
This was her native universe, and she was born from this universe.
However, at this moment, this universe had become Thanos's masterpiece, a void.
Hela was quite satisfied with Thanos's cosmic genocide.
This allowed her to collect the souls of more than one universe.
However, none of these souls compared to the young man she had unintentionally discovered.
That bright, clear, yet profound soul was something Hela had never seen before; she was smitten at first sight.
She sat on her dark throne, propped her chin, her gaze distant and hollow, unable to fathom how anyone could possess such a simple yet complex soul.
Lin Feng's guess was correct; Hela had indeed seen his universe.
But Hela did not act rashly, as Lin Feng had expected, directly attacking him.
She had a clear understanding of her own strength.
Thanos, who held a Cosmic Heart fragment, was killed by Lin Feng.
This was enough to show that Lin Feng was not someone to be trifled with.
And now, with the Cosmic Heart fragment in Lin Feng's possession, Hela had even less confidence in dealing with him.
Thinking of this, Hela sighed and shook her head, her gaze flicking to the side.
Beside her throne floated a wisp of remnant soul, that of the older Thanos.
With unfocused eyes, a nearly completely transparent soul, it seemed it wouldn't last much longer.
"Hmph, useless..." Hela turned away in disgust.
Thanos's incompetence had ruined Hela's plan.
She had even lent Thanos a fragment of the Cosmic Heart.
Alas, for her fragment, Hela sighed, and thought again of Lin Feng's bright soul.
As expected of the soul she fancied, it was indeed not easy to deal with.
A moment of carelessness, and even her own location was exposed.
But Hela felt she wasn't entirely without hope.
With a wave of her hand, she dispelled her throne and left this shattered remnant universe.
Opportunities would always arise; for now, she couldn't let Lin Feng find her.
As for where she was going? Hela in this universe had more than just Thanos as a suitor...
As Hela left, the older Thanos's remnant soul soon dissipated.
The entire void universe returned to silence.
After an unknown period, a faint gleam flashed in the shattered universe.
Lin Feng, following the coordinates from the image, traversed to this space.
He cautiously concealed himself, observing this universe.
After dinner, when Susan and the others were asleep, Lin Feng got up and traversed over.
The goal was to strike first, to avoid bringing the battlefield to his own universe.
This shattered universe had not a single speck of light.
The entire universe was like a broken mirror, filled with fragments.
Darkness, silence, a terrifying silence.
Soon, Lin Feng's brow furrowed.
"No one?"
The White Superman's senses scanned the shattered universe continuously but found nothing.
Lin Feng closed his eyes, maximizing his senses, and searched again, unwilling to give up.
After a long while, a faint red line appeared in Lin Feng's perception, and he suddenly opened his eyes.
"Found it?"
"No, no, no... it doesn't seem right."
Lin Feng muttered to himself, and teleported to where Hela had been.
"It's the scent of death, and then... it disappears here?"
Lin Feng detected a faint scent of death, which seemed to connect to a spatial portal.
But the scent also broke off here, preventing Lin Feng from further tracking.
The only thing he could confirm was that Hela must have left this universe...
Lin Feng scratched his head in confusion, unable to understand.
Had Hela run away?!
"Wait a minute! Could it be..." Lin Feng's heart leaped, and without hesitation, he instantly teleported back to his own universe.
He suddenly suspected that Hela might have come to his universe to find him!
Fortunately, Blue Star was still running smoothly.
Lin Feng did not sense any aura of death in his universe.
He was stumped. Had she really run away?
Hela's behavior pattern had confused Lin Feng.
After standing in space for a long time without any results, Lin Feng slowly returned to Blue Star.
Whether Hela had run away or not, Lin Feng intended to have Lin Jili activate the Cosmic Heart fragment again after she woke up.
Without confirming this information, Lin Feng felt he couldn't sleep soundly.
He hadn't felt such a restless feeling of something constantly weighing on his mind for a long time.
