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

Easy win!

Such a convoluted line of thought would be hard to come up with unless he was well-versed in online novels.

Seeing their exasperated expressions, he could only chuckle.

A group of short-sighted and ignorant lower-level students.

However, the prince still needs to find a way to achieve perfect bloom.

He wouldn't actually be completely disrespectful. Compared to Hongmian from the Disaster Management Bureau, Jiang Si considered himself to be more worldly-wise. Giving the other party a way out at this time would make subsequent negotiations much easier.

"I don't know who came up with this terrible idea. It was a bit stupid, but the prince and princess did a pretty good job."

The prince said with a forced smile, "I paid for it."

"..."

Why is this person undermining themselves?

They have absolutely no sense of observation.

Jiang Si felt she couldn't communicate with someone who couldn't speak properly, but still maturely added, "Luckily, he's not beyond redemption."

"Humph."

The prince turned his head slightly, no longer dwelling on these details, and simply stared at his neck and lips for a while.

"You're having a great time with Shion, aren't you?"

"Fortunately."

The experienced driver covered his face.

Bro, you're completely wrong, bro!

If you're going to cheat, at least do it properly!

In front of Ziyuan, be a good boyfriend and don't get killed; in front of the prince, be a good fiancé and coax your fiancée.

How about some sweet talk? Give me a little! With your current level of affection, a couple of sweet words should be enough to win you over, right?

The prince is practically trying to create the conditions for you to play the hero and save the damsel in distress...

If you're going to be a jerk, at least be a little more ethical! Don't be so perfunctory!

However, the prince's expression was slightly awkward, but he didn't say anything, only nodding dismissively, "Then you can go and spend the rest of your life with your Ziyuan!"

Jiang thought for a moment, "There's no other way."

Not to mention the seasoned veterans, even the other members of the old world who were originally uninterested in the two of them couldn't contain themselves as they listened.

"Holy crap, can't you talk properly? Would it kill you to say something nice?"

"Prince, you've been living too comfortably in the past, so you're looking for someone to cultivate your masochistic interests, aren't you?"

"Is it possible that she has this kind of fetish herself...?"

Before the group could finish speaking, the prince waved his hand and threw them outside.

Having regained his composure, the prince stubbornly maintained his facade of arrogance, saying, "I was just joking."

"I can tell."

"...How come I didn't notice?"

"You probably made yourself laugh first."

The prince's lips twitched, but he ultimately maintained a noble smile befitting royalty. "Alright, alright, alright, alright..."

"Stuttering?"

"I'm fine. I just want to ask you, where's the Miracle Seed? Can you give it to me now?"

Jiang Si did not hesitate and immediately took out the miracle seed that Qingluan had given him.

The miraculous seed of the iris, with a blooming flower locked inside, failed to hatch.

The seeds are green, but the flowers contain a purple glow.

There is no doubt that it is Shion's magic.

And this flower is the key to full bloom.

Just as the prince was about to take it, Jiang Si suddenly pulled it back.

The prince's crimson pupils narrowed. "What do you mean? Have you changed your mind again? In the end, you've chosen the Azure Cloud Sect, haven't you? This is what two-faced people are like..."

"No, I'm wondering, without the mental imagery domain, can you really achieve perfect full bloom?"

Jiang Si said seriously, "I'm a little worried that you'll fail."

After all, it wasn't until I gained access to the Mindscape Domain that I realized how useful it was.

Even the realm of mental imagery can lock away one's own magic.

Without the mental imagery domain, the maximum level of full opening that can be achieved is probably only like that of the Jade Fox, right?

Magical girls with and without mental images are like those who are unarmed and those who are armed—separated by a high wall.

"Do not worry."

For some reason, the prince's tone seemed much lighter. "We were prepared for this as well. I will obtain the domain of mental images."

From where?

"Of course it's from the magical girl, where else could it be?" the prince said matter-of-factly. "You don't need to worry about that. The technology of my Mirror Kingdom is all-powerful!"

[Warning: This is only a high probability event, not a 100% certainty...]

After silencing the system's nonsense and accepting the miracle seed thrown to him by Jiang Si, the prince finally showed a rare smile.

Then he added:

"Oh, right, there's a child who wants to join the New Witch Society, and even wants to become your confidant."

"Who?"

The prince clapped his hands, and the mirror space folded, finally revealing a small house. Inside, a little girl was sitting quietly at a table, motionless.

"arctic fox."

At the prince's call, the girl finally turned her head. Her eyebrows and skin were white, and one of her pupils was also white.

Jiang Si felt that his appearance was somewhat familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen him before. Combined with his white pupils, he had a kind of pure and transparent ethereal quality.

His footsteps were light and almost silent, and his expression remained blank as he approached.

He looked like a robot.

"This child wants to join the new Witch's Guild. White Fox, this is Mr. Si Mo Tu."

The white fox finally turned its gaze to Si Mo Tu, then bowed slightly, giving a very polite bow.

"Hello, Mr. Si Motu."

Jiang Si simply asked, "What are your dreams? Anyone who joins the New Witch Society must have dreams."

"Yes, sir."

The girl spoke in a vague and ethereal voice, "My dream is to kill your girlfriend Ziyuan and destroy the Qingyun Sect, sir."

Jiang Si turned her head to the side. "Why?"

"For revenge."

The fair-skinned, translucent girl said, "Sir, I come from the Black Mountain Realm."

"Jade Fox is my foster mother."

……

When she got back to her dorm, Bing Tang couldn't help but sigh.

Yotsuba poured a cup of tea and jogged over to deliver it to Rock Sugar. "Lord Rock Sugar, please have some tea."

"When we're not at the Qingyun Sect and there's no one else around, I call you 'elder sister'."

Then Yotsuba smiled sweetly, "Yes, sister!"

Rock Sugar then patted Four Leaf's head with satisfaction.

Because the Qingyun Sect ultimately had to cater to Jiang Si's wishes, they still maintained a proper hierarchy in their daily address.

But when no one is around, Bing Tang still prefers to be called "sister".

After all, "adult" sounds so old.

She's not some kind of magical old monster from online novels who's lived for hundreds of years.

After looking around, everyone who was supposed to leave had left after the mental imagery trial ended.

Because there are still many things to do at the Qingyun Sect—whether it's dealing with the old world or dealing with the calamity beasts, it's always more reliable to have a true disciple overseeing things.

For Bing Tang, she was different from those remnants of the old world and the calamity beasts.

The Qingyun Sect cannot accept casualties.

Back when the Qingyun Sect was confined to the North Sea, it was manageable, but now that it has begun large-scale expansion, maintaining zero casualties is becoming increasingly difficult.

It is a very arduous task, requiring attention to many details.

We don't want any accidents to happen, and we don't want the sect leader to act as a babysitter. The Qingyun Sect needs to do its job well in addition to being the sect leader and prove its own value.

However, Bing Tang was a little surprised that the sect leader had spent so much money so quickly last time.

We need to allocate some funds from our own household for the sect leader's future use.

Even with so much money, Jiang Si would still habitually pick up any money that had fallen on the ground when the two of them went out.

"Why would you even bother picking up that little bit of money..."

"No matter how rich you are, you should pick up the money that falls on the ground. I once read an online article about a person who kept picking up money from the ground, penny by penny, until he became a millionaire!"

"Even in a novel, this is too outrageous!"

"It's not outrageous, because in the end, his uncle left him a million-dollar inheritance."

Where did this web novel come from...? Bing Tang thought about it for a long time and felt that it shouldn't be a cultivation web novel.
