After the earthquakes, tsunamis, terrifying gusts of wind as well as their sudden disappearance, civilians began to bombard the governments of the different countries of the world with questions. Unfortunately, only countries that were major world powers knew what had really happened since one of the protectors of their lands had been at the heart of the events. Therefore, seeing the problems they faced, several first world countries held a virtual emergency meeting to discuss countermeasures.

The United States, Russia, Japan, China, Germany, Great Britain, England, and even a representative of the Vatican met in a remote conference and after more than three hours of discussions, finally reached a tactical agreement among themselves.

"We regret the inconvenience and damage caused to the private property of those affected, the government will take care of paying for such loss and give compensation to those who were affected. As for those who lost their lives due to mental instability, we can only say that we deeply regret it; but it is not something for which we can be held responsible, after all, every family has the right to watch over and ensure the mental health of their loved ones and to be close to them in cases like the one that happened yesterday. Now, let me explain the cause of the events..."

"As we well know, ecological problems are becoming more and more problematic and disastrous, global warming is getting more and more out of control and at the rate things are progressing the planet we inhabit will have trouble surviving much longer. Therefore, after a huge investment of money, raw materials, and world-class geniuses, the first world countries are joining together to experiment with the climate of the atmosphere. Today, I am pleased to announce that we have succeeded in creating a high-tech machine with the capacity to change the climate in certain areas of the world."

These were the words each government announced to its citizens during an open press conference.

Naturally, people were dubious about such claims. After all, controlling the environmental climate was not something that humans could do no matter how much they thought about it. However, 80% of the people who doubted the governments' speeches were silenced when just one day after the government announcement, heavy rains hit the desolate and dry desert, water began to emanate from the ground in arid areas where plantations could not grow or survive, or when places that humans could not access at both poles of the planet due to extreme temperatures suddenly became a little warmer.

After all this, mankind had no choice but to accept the words of the world powers.

Of course, there were many people who still did not believe that a human being could create a machine with such power so they assumed that all the sudden changes were due to the power of an almighty God who was helping mankind to overcome different difficulties. As a result of this, many people who previously did not believe in any god or belong to any religion began to pray daily as if they wanted to gather good karma.

The communication channels and recordings circulating on the net were modified in a little noticeable way and the news that should not be known by civilians to maintain social stability were also repressed. Thus, the problems had been mostly solved.

However, after all that had happened, people seemed to forget the explosions in outer space and those who had not forgotten were directly ignored by all governments. Since they were a minority, unless something big happened again, their voices would never reach anyone.

One week later.

Seven days had passed since the series of events that shook a great part of the planet Earth and its inhabitants.

During this time, Xie Feng stayed in the capital of China as a form of mini-vacation instead of returning immediately to Shanghai. He went out to many places, accompanied Xie Yao and Gu Qianxue shopping several times, and even went out with both girls on a romantic date to a luxurious restaurant in the city, earning the jealous and envious gaze of all the local men when they saw how two big first-class beauties obediently followed him.

In fact, Xie Yao was so good-natured that she forgot that she could go out with Xie Feng alone after winning her bet with Gu Qianxue and she proposed to simply go out the three of them together.

One more thing worth noting was that on the very day Xie Feng planned to return to Shanghai, he was visited by an unexpected person.

-Gu Family Mansion.

Xie Feng looked at the small beauty in front of him with a questioning gaze.

"So... Do you need something from me?" he questioned, not knowing what else to say.

This was also natural, after all, the person in front of him was none other than the princess of the Yao Family, Yao Mei. She had suddenly appeared at Gu Qianxue's house together with a gray-haired old man who Xie Feng estimated must be her personal servant since the Empress of Fire would not need a small bodyguard. The most surprising thing was that she came here not to talk to Gu Qianxue, but was looking for him.

Currently, Yao Mei was wearing comfortable clothes for sports, her hair was slightly disheveled and there were small beads of sweat on her face. It was obvious that she had been training hard lately.

"Are you leaving Beijing today?" Yao Mei asked suddenly out of the blue.

Xie Feng was a little speechless. This fifteen years old girl appeared unannounced at other people's house, did not even greet Gu Pojun, did not explain anything, and directly started a police interrogation. But since her voice was as sweet as honey, he didn't mind too much and answered honestly.

"That's right, Yaoyao... Xie Yao and Gu Qianxue need to go back to college after all." He explained lightly.

The little fiery red-haired beauty kept silent and simply looked at him quietly.... This was a bit uncomfortable for Xie Feng since being looked at in such a way didn't feel very good. He had heard that the princess of the Yao Family never talked to anyone, even in the virtual world she never talked and only killed people; but listening and witnessing were two very different things.

Of course, Xie Feng did not know that in reality, the mere fact that Yao Mei took the trouble to seek him out and initiate a conversation was a great challenge for her considering her personality. He also didn't know that while she was silent, it was actually because she was trying very hard to think of what to say while trying to be careful with her words.

In the end, perhaps realizing that it wasn't proper to just stare at him, Yao Mei's baby voice finally reached Xie Feng's ears: "I.... I will try to change colleges."

"Eh? I see..." Xie Feng didn't know what to say. Why was this girl saying such things to him? Shouldn't she go and tell her father instead of him, practically a stranger?.... Suddenly, Xie Feng thought: 'Could it be that this girl is really in love with me?' However, he shook off that thought quickly. Interested? Maybe. In love? Xie Feng didn't think so.

Yao Mei looked at Xie Feng for almost a full minute in silence before nodding without another word. She stood up, turned around, and walked towards the exit.

The old man behind her bowed to Xie Feng respectfully and retreated along with his young miss.

Xie Feng watched the back of the two people disappear to the back of the corridor and was speechless.... What is this all about!?

"This... That Yao Mei girl, she came all the way here just to say two little sentences?" Xie Feng muttered dumbfounded.

As swift as a gust of wind, she appeared. However, similarly as swiftly, she disappeared.... Perhaps she was secretly a wind skill user and not a fire skill user? Xie Feng laughed at his own thoughts.

"To think that you would even capture Yao Mei's heart..." Gu Qianxue accompanied by Xie Yao entered the hall and said with a smile. "Could it be that you really want to raise your own loli? Although she is a busty loli."

"Pffft! Hehehe~" Xie Yao couldn't help but chuckle. Now that her parents weren't around, Gu Qianxue stopped pretending to be an innocent girl and went back to being that little seductress they knew.

The corner of Xie Feng's mouth twitched several times. He wanted to respond but after living together for so many days, so many hours, under the same roof and even sleeping together, he learned that it was best to avoid confronting Gu Qianxue when she started to behave like that.

In the end, he rolled his eyes and changed the subject, saying, "Forget about raising my own loli. On the other hand, are you girls ready?"

"We are ready, big brother Xie Feng." Xie Yao smiled and her beautiful eyes curved into a crescent moon shape. "The employees have already helped us put our luggage away and Uncle Gu has already ordered them to put it in the car. We can come back whenever you want."

Xie Feng nodded with a smile and stood up. He clapped his hands once and said jovially, "Good! Then let's go back home! Although this place possesses all kinds of expensive luxuries, I really miss my bed!"

Nothing better than one's own bed to sleep in! Xie Feng regretted not bringing it with him.

So, Xie Feng and the two beauties returned to Shanghai... Yes, by plane, again.
