Capítulo 61: MUP: Chapter 60. She Can Fly?!
Jessica and Luke Cage...
The fight between the two, obviously, didn't end so easily.
Luke raised his hand, blocking the cabinet that was viciously thrown at him. Luke grabbed the cabinet and threw it back at Jessica.
Jumping aside to avoid the flying wooden cabinet, Jessica turned to look at the smashed cabinet on the wall and patted her chest, which was almost filled with fear. Although she also had superhuman strength, Jessica wasn't as invulnerable as Luke in defence.
"Aren't you going to stop them?"
Looking at Jessica and Luke, who were about really get into it, Ah Xing couldn't help but ask Matt.
Matt leaned his head sideways, listening to the battle in front of him. Responding to the clone's question, the corners of his lips slightly rose as he replied with a calm expression, "Don't worry, they're not using their full strength."
"I know, I mean, if the two of them keep fighting, the restaurant would be demolished. Who's gonna foot the bill? "
"..."
The Ah Xing clone's words caused Matt to ponder for a moment before turning to him and saying, "Ah Xing, help me stop them."
Although Matt was a lawyer, he wasn't rich. He couldn't afford to let Jessica and Luke destroy this place.
"Got it."
At his words, Ah Xing nodded.
He then leapt across the table and rushed at Luke and Jessica, stopping between the two. When he was in front of the two, his Mighty Steel Leg kept kicking left and right, zigzagging and deflecting their punches with kicks. Suddenly, he collected power in both feet in a horse stance and stomped down.
Bang --
With a dull noise....
Jessica and Luke took a couple of steps back under the influence of the force. When they stood firmly, both raised their heads to look at Ah Xing, who suddenly appeared between them, with shocked expressions.

As a clone, although he couldn't feel pain, having to withstand Jessica and Luke -- two people with superhuman strength, with the Mighty Steel Leg as support .... Ryan still felt that the chakra that he used to sustain 'Ah Xing' was a bit unstable.
Luckily, the cards drawn from the system were powerful enough to stabilise the situation.
'Whew, something big was almost going to happen.'
In the antique store, Ryan was apprehensive.
The clone in the Chinese restaurant, however, still had a calm expression. He turned to look at the two people to his left and right. He raised both hands, "Matt told me to."
"..."
Feeling the gazes from Luke and Jessica, Matt's expression looked apologetic, "If you guys keep fighting, the entire restaurant will collapse."
Listening to Matt's words, they both turned their attention to their surroundings. Because of their fight, the entire restaurant looked like a battle zone.
...
Matt paid for the maintenance cost of the restaurant, and the group left.
Jessica walked in front with a frown. The expression on her face was somewhat tangled.
"To be honest, I had no intention of joining the Defense Team or whatever it's called ..." Turning her head, Jessica looked at the three people behind her, and her gaze lingered on Luke's expression. With a grumpy tone, Jessica added, "But since someone thinks I can't do it, I'm gonna show him. I'll join you."
After that, Jessica squarely looked at Matt.
"It's the Defenders... and welcome to the team."
Feeling Jessica's gaze, Matt then nodded his head and readily agreed.
"Humph."
Hearing these words, Jessica subconsciously hooked the corners of her lips to smile, then turned to Luke on the side. Then she added, "I'll keep investigating leads on the Hand. If I find anything, I'll ... How do I contact you?"
"You can come to see me at the law firm in Hell's Kitchen."
"It's a deal."
Jessica raised her eyebrows and nodded. She then turned, slightly bent her knees, and with a crisp cracking sound, the three men saw her fly away.
"She can fly?"
"She can fly!"
Seeing the whole process of Jessica's flight, Ah Xing deliberately made a surprised expression.
Luke Cage, on the other hand, was really shocked. He never thought that Jessica actually had the ability to fly apart from her superhuman strength.
Feeling Jessica gradually disappear from his surroundings, Matt smiled at Luke and Ah Xing's surprised look, "Isn't this great? Jessica's ability to fly could be a big help in dealing with the Hand."
"Even in Peng Lai, only those who have practised Celestial Art have the ability to fly through the air."
He muttered to himself, propping up the character's background a bit more.
Ryan controlled his clone, Ah Xing, ready to retire for the day.
"If there's nothing else for today, I'll leave first."
"This time, we took down the Hand's forces in Midland Circle; they should be aware of it by now. Their operations would be even more secretive." Matt wasn't surprised by Ah Xing's request to leave. He nodded, "However, we already know Madame Gao's position among the Hand, and if we continue to pursue it, we will definitely be able to find the remaining hidden locations of the Hand."
"As for the news about Villard, I asked one of my colleagues in the law firm to track it down. However, we won't be able to find it that soon. As long as we continue to search patiently, there should be some answers. You don't need to worry too much, Ah Xing."
"Next time, if it's still a battle with the Hand, remember to let me know."
"Of course, you are a member of the Defenders."
At the doors of the Chinese restaurant, feeling Ah Xing's footsteps fading away, Matt turned his head sideways and spoke to Luke, who was still standing beside him, "Thanks for that."
"For what?"
When Luke heard Matt's words, he couldn't help but pause and ask back, pretending to be puzzled.
"It was precisely because of your outburst that Jessica came around and agreed to join our team. Luke, I know, you're not really 'that' kind of guy."
Hearing Matt expose his previous actions, Luke also had to give up his act and shrugged his shoulders, "I just knew we needed her in our team. She did a great job in the battle back then, and damn... she could fly."
"She looks more like a superhero than the rest of us. "
