Venom, sitting on the sofa, watched Qinuo burst into laughter the moment he appeared.
"What, found something fun?"
Qinuo ran to the sofa and lay on Venom's lap, continuing to laugh.
"Hahaha, I'm telling you, I just sent the Stark couple to find Tony. Tony thought his dad was me in disguise, so he beat him up the moment they met! Hahaha, you don't know how interesting his desperate expression was."
Venom rolled his eyes at him.
"You're really mean. Aren't you afraid Tony will break up with you?"
Qinuo finally managed to stop laughing.
"Break up? How is that possible? By the time he realizes, he'll probably be ecstatic."
"Only you make sense, always causing trouble like this."
Venom poked Qinuo's forehead.
Next, Pietro and Wanda also explained to their parents why they were here.
Qinuo arranged for them to stay in the employee apartments, where the family lived.
Pietro and Wanda were arranged to attend school; when they had nothing to do, they would come for classes. Pietro also joined; after collecting so much tuition, only teaching one person felt a bit like a betrayal of conscience.
Jean and Black Phoenix also returned quickly, embracing their mother and weeping.
Jean's mother knew she had come here years later, but she only remembered giving birth to one child?
Jean also explained to her mother what had happened, especially when she heard that her husband was afraid Jean would abandon her directly, her face turned dark, and she even felt a little scared seeing Black Phoenix.
As for Black Phoenix, Jean's mother also treated her as her own daughter.
Especially after realizing she had been gone for several years, she felt a great debt to them and wanted to make it up to them.
However, after learning that both sisters fell in love with one person, and that person had many other women around him, her resentment towards her husband grew deeper and deeper. What was the use of him?
But after learning that the person was Qinuo, who had resurrected her, and that he had also opened a global group, and Jean had recounted his deeds, she acquiesced.
Her daughters had already been completely taken, so there was nothing she could do even if she disagreed.
However, after receiving a luxury car, a nearby Villa, and youth serum the next day, she became more and more satisfied with this son-in-law.
What's wrong with a man being a bit lustful? It's completely normal!
A week later, after Jean's mother adapted to life in this era, she greeted her two daughters and left.
She didn't return until three days later, holding a divorce certificate.

The next day, the Sun streamed through the window onto Qinuo's desk, which was covered with various materials and metals.
A whistling sound came from the sky. Qinuo looked up and saw a robot flying towards him, then landing steadily on the balcony.
"You're still alive?"
Qinuo's eyes were full of surprise.
"No, I'm already dead, socially dead."
Tony stepped out of his Iron Man suit, walked straight to Qinuo, and sat down opposite him, replying unhappily.
Qinuo raised an eyebrow and teased,
"Do you need me to perform a resurrection spell on you?"
"Yes, and a memory erasure spell."
Tony's face was filled with an awkward and helpless expression, as if he really wanted to erase certain memories.
"Hahaha,"
Seeing Tony's expression, Qinuo immediately thought of yesterday's scene and couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"So, you came to see me today just to amuse me?"
Qinuo finally managed to stop laughing and looked at Tony, asking.
"..."
"Thank you, I really don't know how to thank you."
Tony's expression seemed a bit awkward, completely devoid of his usual confident demeanor.
Yesterday, he had a long-overdue heart-to-heart talk with his father.
The dissatisfaction towards his father that had accumulated in his heart gradually dissipated during that conversation. Thinking about it now, his heart was still filled with emotion.
"Are you satisfied with this gift then?"
Tony slightly raised the corner of his mouth, revealing a genuine smile.
"Very satisfied. I could never receive a better gift than this in my life."
"That's enough. Design my ride properly."
Qinuo's expression was calm.
Tony also understood and stopped repeating his words of thanks.
Tony's gaze shifted from Qinuo's face to the half-finished clothing on the table, and he teased,
"Are you changing professions to become a tailor?"
Qinuo gently shook his head, his eyes full of focus and seriousness.
"No, these are battle suits for them.
I've gained a lot of things and knowledge during this time, and I plan to improve them significantly."
His mind conjured the precious alchemy books he obtained from the Sorcerer Supreme, as well as the exquisite methods for crafting magical artifacts, especially the creation magic he acquired from Chthon.
The comprehensiveness of creation magic exceeded his imagination; with a sample as a base, he could create special materials.
Take Adamantium and Vibranium, for example; Qinuo could mass-produce them using creation magic.
As for the source of Vibranium, it was from a black market, gifted by a so-called "kind" boss, but the condition was to join the Demon Group.
However, facing n metal, dionysus factor, etc., no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't create even a tiny bit.
Whether it was due to the difference in rules between two different Worlds or the materials themselves being too special, Qinuo currently had no clue.
"You truly love them."
"You're mistaken. They love me. My love is broken; their love is complete, which is why I need to compensate them in other ways."
Qinuo's red magic emanated, continuously weaving the battle suit in his hands.
Seeing him so serious, Tony didn't disturb him further. He put on his battle suit and left.
After all, he also had many things to do. As the battle suit sprayed blue exhaust flames, Tony instantly disappeared into the sky.

Three months passed in the blink of an eye.
There were many changes during these three months. First, Howard Stark went to work at Demon Group, abandoning Stark Industries.
The allure of the artificial Sun was too great; few scientists could refuse it.
Steve and Peggy also learned of Howard's resurrection and brought Bucky to ask for forgiveness.
Howard just gave Bucky a beating and let it go. Although he was killed by Bucky in the original history, he only had a car accident in the current timeline and came to 20 years later as soon as he saw Bucky, so he didn't feel much about it.
He beat Bucky also because he had separated them from Tony for 20 years.
As for Wanda and Pietro, Wanda's learning progress kept accelerating, while Pietro was the exact opposite; he couldn't even sense magic for a month.
So, Qinuo injected him with a strengthening agent, and he awakened his ability: high-speed movement.
Of course, Qinuo didn't forget to do a paternity test for them; they were not Lao Wan's children, nor were they Mutants. Their ability awakening was purely accidental, or perhaps due to spending a long time with Wanda, they were influenced by chaos magic.
So, Wanda continued to study magic, and Pietro was thrown into the Mutant pile.
Little Lunatic Harley, somehow managed to trick Bumblebee and abducted him.
Although he could be called back with a single command, Qinuo decided against it, thinking that Little Lunatic would surely bother him then.
Until this day.
Qinuo's phone rang again.
"Leader, the Tesseract has been stolen by Loki, and Hawkeye Barton has betrayed us. Do you need us to stop them?"
"No need. Continue to maintain a silent state."
"Yes!"
Qinuo stood at the top of Devil Mansion, looking at the sky.
"War is coming."
At the same time, Tony, Steve, and Dr. Banner all received invitations from S.H.I.E.L.D..
