Starting with magical girls, I'll reign supreme for eternity.

Bing Tang said softly, "On the contrary, when you're unfamiliar with someone, you don't need surprises because everything is new and exciting. But after spending a long time together, you need some small surprises to keep things fresh. Hmm, that can effectively prevent burnout."

It feels more like we're lovers than friends...

The old man looked up at the girl in the rearview mirror, who had a faint smile on her face.

Regardless, she looks much happier than when she was at home.

For a moment, the old man didn't think it was so bad.

"I need to work harder to earn more money."

Thinking of those ten black gold cards, Bing Tang sighed softly:

"Rich people are really despicable."

"Brother, you didn't really cheat on me, did you?"

On the way back, we remained silent.

Only when they entered the room did Coco ask softly, "Do you still like Shion-sensei?"

Do I have a reason to hate it?

"Anyway, you'll get tired of it after a while," Coco muttered. "They say men are all like that, they're energetic all day, energetic at noon, and energetic all night, so they're very prone to getting bored easily. Even someone as outstanding as Teacher Ziyuan, once you get her, you'll get tired of her..."

"who are they."

"...some comic book creators."

"Stop watching useless things."

"How is it useless? The story may be fake, but the principle it teaches can never be fake!"

"..."

Coco said seriously, "Romance comics never lie!"

Thinking about how many boring romance novels exist online, Jiang Si couldn't even bring herself to say, "I feel they're not as good as online novels, I should read more online novels."

It's all the fault of those who write romance novels.

He petitioned to have those wicked creators who wrote romance novels banned.

Unexpectedly, the website and its low-quality readers actually forbid it!

It's practically polluting the creative environment.

This elevates online novels to the same level as romance comics that young girls like Coco enjoy.

Online novels are the path to enlightenment, yet people use them to talk about romance—it's utterly ridiculous.

If the beast-taming genre is merely a different path, both ultimately still on the path of seeking the Dao, then romance novels are the enemies of that path.

It is the biggest dark cloud over the online literature edifice.

Some men, though physically imposing, are no different from little girls.

Indulging in the pleasures of love and becoming enamored with beautiful women, he dares to claim that his Daoist heart is steadfast!

Moreover, the influence of romance in novels is quite remarkable. I wonder how many works that should have focused on the pursuit of enlightenment have instead turned to romance instead of properly depicting combat and advancement.

Even Emperor Ye Tian could not escape it.

But this is clearly not a problem between the Heavenly Emperor and Ye Tiandi; it's a problem between websites that don't ban romance novels and viewers who accept romance.

He absolutely does not acknowledge these people as fellow practitioners.

Therefore, he once told Bai Mei that he must ban all online romance novels in the world.

Let Bai Jia San Mei use her dozen or so pseudonyms and names to call on the platform to clean up the internet and give these romance novels a good blow!

Drive out all online romance novels!

Unfortunately, the more they try to suppress them, the more they actually emerge.

As a result, Jiang Si is still unable to refute Coco.

After all, if romance comics are deceiving people, then wouldn't online novels, which are similar to comics, also be deceiving people?

That is absolutely impossible; the two cannot be equated, but currently there is no theory that distinguishes them.

So Jiang Si simply ignored the conversation.

Let the foolish sister stay in the darkness.

After taking the vegetables from Coco, I changed my shoes, washed my hands, and started washing the vegetables, preparing to cook.

It was already dark outside, so I planned to cook some simple dishes, have dinner, and then rest.

Coco grabbed a stool and sat in the kitchen to help pick and wash the vegetables, saying, "Brother."

"Ok?"

"Why don't you tell me why the Qingyun Sect doesn't rule the world?"

Why do we want to rule the world?

“Shion-sensei, who is your friend, is the strongest magical girl,” Coco said. “She could definitely rule the world, right?”

Are you sure you're the strongest?

Coco, who was picking vegetables, was stunned for a moment. "Is there anyone stronger than Teacher Shion?"

"Who knows?" Jiang Si washed the pot clean and heated it over a fire for a while. "The world is so big, and we don't even know the true nature of the Disaster Management Bureau. They might have more power than the Full Open. To rule the world, we must first overthrow the Disaster Management Bureau. Maybe there are even stronger magical girls or powers inside the Disaster Management Bureau?"

"Oh……"

After washing the vegetables and handing them to her brother, Coco thought to herself, "Even Teacher Ziyuan doesn't seem to have thought this through so carefully."

But upon closer examination, all of Qingyun Sect's actions so far have been within the acceptable range of the Disaster Management Bureau.

It is indeed to avoid direct conflict with the Disaster Management Bureau.

"If she were stronger than the Disaster Management Agency, Shion-sensei could probably rule the world..."

Why do we want to rule the world?

Jiang Si gave her a strange look. "You have the power but don't pursue the Great Dao. What kind of low-level thinking is it to think about ruling the world all day long?"

"Downward adjustment thinking?"

"The mindset of a lower-level cultivator."

"Oh, okay." Coco nodded, though she didn't quite understand. "It's mainly for convenience, I guess, for making money, gathering intelligence, and things like that. I thought Shion-sensei would be interested in ruling the world..."

“Those things can be done without ruling the world.” Jiang Si put the chopped vegetables into the pot. “If you break the existing rules, you have to build a new set of rules and find a way to maintain them. That takes too much energy and time. It’s better to focus on cultivation.”

After saying that, she added, "That's probably what Shion thinks."

What was supposed to be a cultivation and combat game has turned into a farming and management game.

The messy political and economic situation is so boring to even think about.

He also has no interest in changing the world.

Even if he were to rule the world alone in the future, Jiang Si decided to continue entrusting the management of the world to the Disaster Management Bureau, at most making the Disaster Management Bureau a nominally affiliated organization of the Qingyun Sect.

As the saying goes, if the code runs without problems, don't touch it.

It does not hinder one's pursuit of the Tao.

"So, does that mean if you join the Disaster Management Bureau, even if Shion-sensei doesn't dare to touch you? That means even if you fall out with Shion-sensei, you'll have a way out..."

"Are you sure the Disaster Management Bureau is willing to turn against the Qingyun Sect for my sake?" Jiang Si glanced at her.

"The Qingyun Sect is unwilling to rashly antagonize the Disaster Management Bureau. It's not that the Qingyun Sect is afraid to antagonize the Disaster Management Bureau. What if we anger Ziyuan and fight? Is the Disaster Management Bureau really willing to wage a full-scale war against the Qingyun Sect just for my sake?"

"Hey……"

“I was so stupid, so stupid,” Coco sighed as she chopped vegetables for her brother. “I shouldn’t have met Shion-sensei in the first place. If I hadn’t met Shion-sensei, I wouldn’t have become her student. If I hadn’t become her student, Shion-sensei wouldn’t have met my brother. If Shion-sensei didn’t know my brother, he wouldn’t have become her boyfriend. If he wasn’t Shion-sensei’s boyfriend, he wouldn’t have been played like this by her…”

"...Brother wouldn't be like this now, forever unable to escape from Shion-sensei's grasp."

Why did you run away?

"What if you cheat on me in the future, or if you are abused by your family and want a divorce? Don't you need to have a way out?"

Jiang Si held the spatula, paused in mid-air, and pondered for a long time.

What is Coco thinking?

It seems we can no longer let Coco run wild and confront the darkness of the cartoonist.

Comics are harmful; Coco should be forbidden from reading comics in the future, and she should read more online novels instead.

"No, no, no." Coco handed Jiang Si the pepper and salt. "You absolutely can't break up with Teacher Ziyuan before we find a way out!"

"You don't need to tell me."

"We also shouldn't anger Shion-sensei, and we should try to keep our distance from the other girls..." Coco added, "Of course, Captain Ginkaku can get a little closer."

"Dinner's ready."

"Oh."

They carried the dishes and bowls back to the living room, and habitually turned on the TV. The two of them ate while listening to the TV.

The report roughly stated that the Disaster Management Bureau had destroyed the Cursed Realm by the Qingyun Sect. It described how the Qingyun Sect had completely wiped out a century-old cult that had been hiding in both South and East China. The report praised the Qingyun Sect's achievements and expressed the determination to cooperate, stating that it would definitely be better to protect the safety of citizens.

The reaction was quite quick.

"Brother, are you short of money?"

"No shortage."

"Huh? Where did this money come from?"

"I earned it myself."

"Oh." Coco took a couple of bites of rice. "If you need money, just tell me. I got paid."

"how much is it?"

"Twenty thousand."
