In American TV shows: Get stronger by spending money!

Su pointed at Andy: "If it weren't for your decent looks, believe me, you would have been dead long ago."

How...at least?

Andy stared at Su in astonishment, completely unexpected that he would give such a reason.

how to say?

Andy doesn't consider herself particularly beautiful, but the assessment that she's somewhat attractive is not wrong.

However... she didn't think the Su family would let her off the hook because of something as base as her appearance.

He's a tycoon, rich and beautiful, so how could he possibly care about beautiful women?

Besides, he possesses extraordinary power, immortality, and wealth. He should have long since transcended the low-level need of judging by appearance, right?

It's not that this kind of thing is low-class, but rather that it is somewhat low-class from the perspective of the Su family.

It doesn't really matter what you pursue in everyday life or other unimportant things; appreciating looks and liking beautiful women is normal.

But when it comes to important matters, like matters of life and death, surely we wouldn't let someone go just because they're a little pretty?

After a moment of surprise, Andy suddenly realized what was happening.

The Su family might actually let him go for this reason, since he didn't feel threatened at all.

To put it another way, would you feel threatened by an ant's provocation?

No way!

If the ant is boring, you can just step on it and kill it. But if you encounter an interesting one, you can spare its life without a problem.

For Andy, this was... a little sad.

She always believed that her secret to immortality and her immense power were the most important and the easiest things for others to covet. She never expected that in the eyes of the Su family, she would be considered merely a woman of some beauty.

"Death is not scary for you, but I can make you die, and I can also put you in a dilemma between life and death!"

"Resurrecting the dead is nothing, it's not as difficult as you think!"

Su reached out and lifted Andy's chin, looking at her somewhat flustered eyes, and said seriously, "I can chat with you in a friendly manner, or I can cruelly bring you despair, it all depends on you!"

"I...I know."

The various methods Sue demonstrated forced Andy to believe that he could resurrect the dead.

Besides, he can't do anything to him, and he has already achieved immortality, so he probably won't capture him for research. The most fundamental conflict is gone, so there's no need for him to create unnecessary trouble.

They should even turn enemies into friends; perhaps he can help them unravel the mystery of immortality.

At least he could tell how many more times he could die, which was absolutely explosive good news for her and the immortals in her squad.

Moreover, only immortals know how lonely and painful immortality is. Over the years, whenever she discovers an immortal, she tries her best to find them and stick together, at least... this will make her and them less lonely.

For immortals, other immortals are like fellow countrymen in a foreign land, and there is a natural affinity between them.

So Andy forgot about being killed three times after learning that Sue was also an immortal.

He died three times, it's no big deal.

Don't take the basics too seriously.

“I have some wine in my car, maybe we can have a good talk?” Andy really wanted to have a good talk with the Su family.

Turning around, Andy intended to get the wine from the car, but then she saw the car still burning.

"Uh... what a pity about those bottles of wine, they cost several thousand dollars." Andy was a little embarrassed and regretful.

"How much is the commission you and your team receive for each mission?" Su asked.

"It depends. Sometimes it's tens of thousands, sometimes hundreds of thousands. If you're lucky and meet a generous person, it could be over a million."

After Andy finished speaking, he suddenly paused.

How do you know I have a team? I only said I've seen immortals die, not that I have an immortal team!

Chapter 303 Guardian of Immortality

Although Andy never said that he had a team, let alone an immortal team, don't forget that Sue's white eyes have the ability to see through other people's fates!

Before he forcefully intervened in Andy's fate, Su had already seen through her original destiny.

During this process, you will naturally see some people and things related to her.

For example, her team of immortals.

Through these things, Su remembered Andy's identity.

Immortal Guardian!

This is a science fiction action movie about an immortal man named Andy who leads a team of immortals on a mission. Their abilities are accidentally exposed, which attracts the covetous eyes of a wealthy man who wants to capture them to study the secrets of immortality and make a fortune!

Typical American thinking: no matter if it's alien technology, immortality, or superpowers, these are all tools for making money.

They're completely obsessed with money!

I didn't watch this movie very carefully, but the general plot seems to be that one of the immortals in Andy's team betrayed them because he couldn't bear the pain of immortality. The mission that exposed the team's secret of immortality was also deliberately arranged. Later, almost the entire team was captured, and a newly awakened immortal saved them.

The ending, of course, is that the traitors have a change of heart, reform themselves, and together they take down the evil biotech company.

In the end, the traitor was expelled from the team, and Andy also discovered in the process that he could no longer be resurrected.

The most memorable part of the movie for Su was neither the plot nor Andy, although Andy was indeed very cool and stylish.

The most memorable character is Joan, Andy's partner and comrade-in-arms, an Asian immortal.

Although her role in the film is small, it is extremely impactful. In the 17th century, Andy and Joan were considered immortal witches, and after surviving being hanged, they were dealt with separately.

Qiong was imprisoned in the 'Iron Maiden' and thrown into the sea. Although it could not kill her, it could make her repeatedly drown and die, then be resurrected, and then drown again, in a cycle that was worse than death.

This punishment is indeed cruel.

This is one of the weaknesses of Andy's immortal beings who are reborn. They are resurrected on the spot, but once trapped, they cannot escape and can only endure the pain forever until one day, when the energy of immortality is exhausted and they die completely, this time they are freed...

At the end of the movie, Joan appears as a cameo. If there is a sequel, she will probably become the villain after all these years of torment.

"Bang!"

A white mist suddenly appeared around Su Shi, and when the mist dissipated, he had returned to his 'normal' appearance.

Immediately afterwards, he grabbed Andy's shoulder with one hand, sensed the Flying Thunder God mark of a nearby city, and teleported there instantly.

"call out--"

In the dimly lit alley, Sue released Andy, who looked bewildered and shocked, and took out all the cash from her wallet, which amounted to several thousand US dollars.

"What do you mean?" Andy asked blankly as Su handed him the money.

"It's too late today, and I have other things to take care of. Consider this money as my treat for drinks. I'll come find you when I'm done with my work."

Su handed the money to Andy, and then disappeared in a flash.

Andy stared blankly at the spot where Su had disappeared. After a long while, she walked out of the alley.

She needed to talk to the rest of the team about the Su family, preferably in person, since... the Su family's attitude might determine their fate.

Deciding fate isn't wrong, but unlike Andy's worries, the Su family had no ambition for immortality. Rather than killing them to refine chakra pills, they would rather recruit this immortality team and have them work for them.

Andy, in particular, as a warrior who has lived for over 6000 years, is definitely better at physical combat than Henry Morgan, making her more suitable to be the representative of the Eight Gates Formation.

However, she doesn't have much immortal energy left in her body, which is something to consider.

Besides, she's the team leader and has lived for so many years, so it's unlikely she'll easily side with me. So let's take it slow. First, hire them to help me with some tasks and make them my own mercenary team. As for the rest, I'll just let things develop gradually.

A lot happened today. First, there was Chris, then Freddy, who was modified by the Byakugan demon. I not only gained Freddy's ability to enter and control dreams, but I also drew the Two-Tailed Cat Demon and experienced the Tailed Beast Mode and Cat Demon Mode.

Strength is temporary, but being handsome lasts a lifetime!

Finally, they encountered Andy, the goddess who had lived for over 6000 years in the Immortal Guardians. It has to be said that things happened one after another, very quickly.

"I hope Nidi can successfully lure Ruby out," Su thought to herself before falling into a deep sleep.

Silent all night.

The next day, after washing up, Su went downstairs and faintly heard voices. When she came to the living room, she saw Chris talking to a middle-aged woman in a uniform, and Chris seemed a little agitated.

"You're awake." Hearing the voice, Chris turned around, got up, greeted Su, and introduced, "This is my mother."

"Mom, this is Su Shi."

Clearly, Chris's mother already knew that Sue was living in her house, but seeing it with her own eyes still surprised her.

In particular, Sue's case also involved Freddy's affair.

This left her momentarily speechless after greeting everyone.

After Su sat down, Chris sat next to him and said, "I've already told my mother what happened and what we agreed on, but my mother doesn't agree!"

"What agreement?"

"So, what about the agreement that I'm following you, and what about the Jinchūriki agreement?" Chris reminded her.

Su realized what was happening and then said to Chris's mother, "There is indeed such an agreement. Sooner or later, Chris will leave you and start her own life. I can understand your worries as a mother, but there is no need for that. With me, her life will be better."

"Her studies..."

"Don't worry about her studies. If she's interested, I'll get her into any university she wants. If she doesn't want to study, I can help her get a degree from the best university!"

Chris wasn't the only one who didn't go to college. This is something to remember. We can find a good university, donate some money, and get her an honorary trustee position. That way, we can also solve Chris and her classmates' enrollment and diploma problems.

This practice is very popular here. Education is still very important, and many people choose different communities for their children's education. As for donating to schools or becoming a school board member, these are basic practices.

Given Chris's financial resources, academic qualifications, and her own strong desire, her mother wanted to refuse, but couldn't find any other reason to do so.

Chapter 304 Mangekyo Sharingan

Whether Chris's mother agreed or not is irrelevant; without Sue, Chris would be dead by now.
