American Comics: The Girl Next Door is Spider-Gwen

It was unclear whether Gwen was being serious or joking.

But Ye Li assumed she was serious.

Because after Gwen spoke, she had Jessica help her to the shower...

After washing up.

Gwen even borrowed a set of Jessica's clothes.

There was no other choice; her Spider suit was now in an ultimate state of disrepair.

…..

By the time Gwen returned home wearing Jessica's clothes.

Ye Li glanced around the room.

It was a complete mess... water stains... marks on the desk... a long black strip carelessly thrown on a lounge chair.

On the ceiling, a web hammock woven from spider silk hung with a few black-and-white tattered cloth pieces. Even the spider silk seemed damp...

That wild, huh... Ye Li recalled that last night had indeed been pretty crazy.

Buzz~

A faint Spider-Sense.

Ye Li looked toward the door, and his cheeky little sister was sneakily peeking again.

"Jessica, come help your brother clean up."

"No way!"

Jessica said disdainfully, "I'm not cleaning up your mess."

"Be good."

Ye Li coaxed, "It's just tidying up the room. Don't you do it often anyway?"

"Is that so... fine, just this once."

Jessica's eyes flickered as she lifted her leg to close the door with her heel, shyly adding, "Just tidying the room, okay."

....

Time quickly passed again.

Today.

Ye Li was in the studio.

Being prone to slacking off, he naturally wasn't working diligently.

He would add a stroke to his painting, then flirt with his assistant, Skye, or fiddle with the twelve zodiac talismans for a while.

These enhanced twelve talismans.

Ye Li had already tested their abilities.

They were indeed incredibly powerful.

Take, for example, the previously lackluster Snake Talisman.

Originally, the Snake Talisman could only grant invisibility, and it was easy to detect.

But the enhanced Snake Talisman not only had a vastly expanded invisibility range but also granted teleportation abilities.

Invisibility combined with teleportation made it impossible to guard against.

As for the other enhanced talismans, such as the Bull Talisman, which exponentially amplified physical strength, the Dog Talisman, granting immortality, and the Rabbit Talisman, offering super speed, each was more powerful than the last.

This led to the superhero Black Spider gradually disappearing from the public eye.

Because now, Ye Li didn't even need to show up to deal with ordinary supervillains.

They would often, inexplicably, be taken down by a variety of abilities.

After playing with the talismans.

A small golden orb emerged in Ye Li's palm, spinning round and round adorably.

The potential of this upgraded Golden Light Charm was far greater than he had imagined.

It was an ability that could grow alongside his strength.

To use painting as a metaphor.

The Golden Light Charm was like a blank sheet of paper, with other abilities acting as colors and inks that could be added to it.

Moreover, the stronger he became, the stronger this blank sheet that carried abilities would grow.

Jessica and Gwen had already mastered the basic martial techniques that came with the Golden Light Charm.

Next, it was time to teach them the incantations for the Golden Light Charm.

With Gwen's talent for Chinese, it wouldn't be a problem for her.

But Jessica's clumsy level of proficiency would likely make learning it quite difficult.

Without a system, they could only learn through slow practice.

It felt a bit like playing a "magical girl development" game.

Oh, right... and there was Tony. He still hadn't given him the suit as promised. Was he slacking off?

As Ye Li pondered this.

The golden orb in his hand spun restlessly and quickly caught Skye's attention.

"Is this some kind of new tech toy?"

She poked it with her finger, feeling its bouncy texture. "It's pretty fun~"

Ye Li gave a mysterious smile. "There's something even more fun."

With a thought, Ye Li controlled the golden orb, and a small protrusion slowly extended outward, forming a tiny tentacle.

Under his control, the golden tentacle acted like part of his body, coiling around Skye's finger.

The smooth and slippery sensation made her shiver~

Skye quickly pulled her finger back. "Ew? Why does it feel a bit gross?"

"It's obviously cute, though."

Ye Li clenched his hand.

When he opened his palm again, the golden orb was gone.

"Magic?"

Skye looked increasingly suspicious, grabbing Ye Li's wrist and examining his palm closely. "Li, this isn't some superpower, is it? You even have abilities now?"

What do you mean, "even I have them"...

"This isn't a superpower. It's a type of ability from the East..."

Ye Li grabbed Skye's wrist, pulling her closer, before continuing, "Mhm... an ability that can be learned."

Skye curled up in his embrace, her beautiful eyes lighting up with joy. "Can I learn it too?"

Her expectant expression was like a little rabbit staring at a dangling carrot.

"You?"

Ye Li placed his hand on Skye's knee, sliding it along her smooth skin, gradually approaching a certain forbidden area.

She knew she'd be assisting today and had purposely worn a short skirt paired with high boots and thigh-high stockings. The texture was great to the touch.

"This requires learning a few Chinese phrases first—Classical Chinese. I'll teach you some basics first."

"Focus on the matter at hand..." Skye leaned weakly against him, her head resting on his shoulder. "Don't move your hand around..."

Ye Li took the opportunity to lightly nibble her earlobe, making her shiver all over. "So, do you want to learn?"
