43 Ancient One's Reminder

Although Leo said that he wasn't going to the Stark Expo's opening ceremony, he still watched the live broadcast on his laptop. Tony jumped off the plane in his Iron Man Armor, and with the sparks from the fireworks in the air, Tony dropped to one knee on the stage for the opening ceremony, causing the audience to cheer.

Then Tony's Iron Man Armor was quickly taken off by a robotic arm stretched out on the ground. Tony appeared in front of everyone in a decent suit, which caused more intense cheers below the stage.

The applause and cheers lasted for more than ten seconds. During this time, not only did Tony not interrupt, he even turned his head and put his hands behind his ears to listen to the cheers below the stage, his face full of pride and pretension.

After the applause died down, Tony started to talk about pretentious things like ensuring world peace on his own.

Leo couldn't help but complain in his heart. Tony really was the most narcissistic person in the whole MCU. In the movie, Tony had even talked big at the opening ceremony even when he has Palladium Poisoning. Now that he had gotten rid of the threat of Palladium Poisoning, he was even more outrageous and dared to say anything.

The audience cheered at Tony's words.

In short, Leo, who had watched the live broadcast the whole time, didn't see that this was the opening ceremony of an exhibition. It was more like a superhero Iron Man's personal performance.

Leo was watching the opening ceremony not because he was bored, but because he was afraid that someone might attack Tony at the opening ceremony, but nothing happened.

Seeing that the Stark Expo had launched perfectly, Leo stopped paying attention and began his meditation. He was ready to say goodbye to Ancient One the next day.

At this time, Tony, who had just stepped off the stage, went out and a large group of people surrounded him. There were Iron Man fans who wanted an autograph, celebrity models who wanted to rely on their relationship with Tony to climb up, and some company executives who wanted to talk to Tony about cooperation.

Escorted by Happy, the bodyguards, they finally got rid of the siege and came to their sports car.

A blonde beauty was standing next to the sports car. Although Tony, as a playboy, had restrained himself, he still couldn't help but tease her.

Unfortunately, the beautiful woman was a police officer. She had come to Tony to pass him a subpoena, requesting that he attend the Washington Senate military committee at nine tomorrow.

Tony had already expected this, and indeed, the military couldn't help but take action. However, they were still too green to steal Tony Stark's things.

Tony's good mood was ruined. He simply started his sports car and left with a roar of an engine.

The next day, Leo woke up very early in the morning. He basically didn't need to sleep now. At night, he just needed to practice and study with his astral projection while he rests his body. The next day, he would still look energetic.

Leo, who had gotten up, went straight out of his room. After washing up, he came to the training square and began to practice with the sorcerers in the morning.

There were all kinds of sorcerers here. Some were Asian, some were black, and some were white. Some were normal, and some had missing parts of their bodies. For example, there was an old man in a Daoist robe with a white beard. He only had half a hand left. Li Yue had seen him in the movie, the one who had slapped Doctor Strange hard.

The first time he met Leo, he stared at him for a long time, which made him feel a little perplexed.

Kamar-Taj had been training some basic magic in the morning, like drawing portals, creating magic shields, magic whips, and so on. Although Leo had already mastered these spells, he still insisted on training with these sorcerers.

After finishing the morning's training, Leo felt it was time to say goodbye to the Ancient One and thank her for her guidance in his magic practice. This month is his first and most important time.

That was because Leo had finally figured out how to transmigrate. The galaxy he had seen when he transmigrated was in his mind. If he wanted to transmigrate, he needed to light up the stars in his mind.

Now, he had lit up two stars. The first one represented Marvel Cinematic Universe, and the other represented X-Men Universe. He now needed to accumulate cosmic energy until he could completely light up the third star, which was when Leo would cross over into another world again.

His sudden transmigration last time was because he came into contact with the Tesseract and absorbed a lot of space energy, which was why he lit up the second star. So, Leo felt it was necessary to find a way to get the Space Stone, so that it would be easier for him to jump worlds.

However, these were only Leo's ideas. The real situation still needed to be tested.

As his mind was wandering, Leo unknowingly reached the door of the hall where Ancient One was. Leo walked straight in. He believed that Ancient One already knew that he was here.

When he came in, he saw Ancient One sitting there with a teapot and two cups on the table in front of him. Ancient One was making tea there, his movements unhurried, as if it contained some natural law.

"Ancient One, I think…"

"Master Leo, you don't to say anything, sit down and have a cup of tea first."

Ancient One interrupted Leo with a smile and invited him to sit down, and personally poured a cup of freshly brewed tea for him.

Seeing Ancient One like this, Leo was in no hurry to say goodbye. He slowly drank the tea. Although Leo still doesn't know how to taste tea, he won't directly drink it like before. Instead, he takes small sips and slowly reflects on the fragrance of the tea.

"Master Leo, I know why you are here today, and I won't stop you, but there are some things I need to tell you."

After Leo drank two cups of tea, the silent Ancient One finally broke the silence and said that he already knew Leo's purpose.

"Thank you, Ancient One, for teaching me for a month. I will never forget this experience and favor. If you have any instructions, please tell me. I will try my best to complete it."

Leo answered solemnly. Although Ancient One had not taught Leo for long, Leo still appreciated Ancient One's teachings. To be blunt, Ancient One and Leo have a master-disciple relationship.

"I don't have any instructions. You just need to do what you think is right. But I still have to remind you that the future has changed. You can't rely too much on what you know. Just after you came to this earth, there were many things that even I can't predict."

After listening to Ancient One's words, Leo fell into deep thought, thinking about the meaning of Ancient One's words.

"Ancient One, can't you see the future using the time stone?"

Leo couldn't help but ask.

"It's not that I can't see the future, but the future has become very hazy and many possibilities were added. Before you came to Earth, I saw Kaecilius fall into darkness a few years later, and Dr. Strange would come to Kamar-Taj to treat his hands and eventually save the world, and I would die."

Ancient One said slowly, her tone unchanged, as if what she said had nothing to do with her.
