Starting as a Magical Girl, I Alone Shall Rule for Eternity Chapter 74

"I reported to the headquarters, hoping they'd include Shion in the Magical Girl Idol Project, but they refused!" Jiang Si held a book in his hand.

Written by Bai Mei.

Although it was difficult to read, she was still the chief true disciple after all. Since she had humbly sought guidance and he had nothing better to do, for the sake of the Azure Cloud Sect's future legacy, he still had to make some revisions.

"Do you all remember the story of 'The Demon Guest's Journey'? In Ancient Year 2, something terrible happened on the distant Demon Battle Continent. The Demon Heavenly Emperor, known as the [Nine Heavens Malevolent Tyrant], appeared. The Demon Heavenly Emperor targeted the mortal world, preparing to corrupt it. His head was titled Demon Battler, his hands were Demon Emperors, his body was a terrifying Foundation Building cultivator. When the Demon Heavenly Emperor prepared to descend upon the mortal world, the Azure Cloud Sect's ancestor, Sea Immortal Venerable, who was patrolling the Demon Battle Continent, discovered and immediately stopped his scheme—the invincible Sea Immortal Venerable fell. The message Sea Immortal Venerable sent out was blocked by the Demon Heavenly Emperor. No one in the Demon Battle Continent knew about this disaster..."

Just from the first page, Jiang Si was already suffocating.

Could you please use paragraphs?

"Does everyone remember? The Demon Heavenly Emperor's first battle was on January 1st of Ancient Year 2, where he defeated the Flame Venerable, known as the Heaven Demon Battler. The battle with the Salvation Venerable occurred on January 1st of Ancient Year 2. Then on January 1st, he defeated the Sculpture Master Dragon Venerable. The fierce battle with Ghost Li also happened on January 1st of Ancient Year 2. Could the Demon Heavenly Emperor, with his glorious record, corrupt the mortal world? The answer is no, because the country bumpkins in the heavens didn't know that our great Shion the Great existed in the mortal world..."

Are you just listing names?

Could you please use fewer character names?

Given that she had copied so many Azure Cloud Sect scriptures, to write something this boring, one has to admit Bai Mei has some talent.

The self-created cultivation technique was a complete mess, with no discernible logic. It took ten whole chapters without explaining anything clearly.

Couldn't you at least copy from existing texts?

What Bai Mei needed most right now was to retake elementary school language arts.

After revising several chapters, Jiang Si finally gained a deeper understanding of carving flowers on feces.

It wasn't just a test of technique, but also a brutal trial of spirit.

Taking a deep breath and looking up, Jiang Si, who had seen too much excrement, admired the green plants in the station to rest his eyes.

"Then none of them were willing! I said maybe the TV station or news could give some recognition. After she kindly protected Beihai, we should show some appreciation. But they all made bitter faces saying it's inconvenient, inconvenient. What's inconvenient? I think they just want to hog the Azure Cloud Sect's achievements. It really infuriates me!"

Iris beside him was still chattering away, looking quite indignant.

Because Jiang Si said he wanted to go to Jiangming City, Keke reported this to the Disaster Control Bureau.

It wasn't that Keke was being nosy—when magical girl relatives leave the city, it normally requires reporting.

Beihai's Disaster Control Bureau already didn't have many magical girls. The captain had just lost her transformation ability, and now that Keke had just advanced to Seedling, for Beihai's Disaster Control Bureau, this meant adding a significant combat force, filling the gap left by Li Yi's departure.

They absolutely couldn't allow any accidents.

So when they learned Jiang Si was going to Jiangming City, after communicating and confirming that Jiang Si definitely had to go, the Disaster Control Bureau planned to send someone with him and also contact Jiangming City's Disaster Control Bureau to ensure his safety.

Then Iris snatched up this task.

"Anyway, I can't stand this city's Disaster Control Bureau anymore. Even if I weren't your bodyguard, I'd still want to get away. Plus, I can go to Jiangming City to play with Qingluán. Did you know? Qingluán is my best friend. When Beihai had trouble this time, she came to find me immediately..."

Besides being confident, this Iris really talked a lot.

From the moment Jiang Si sat down in the station waiting hall, she had been chattering nonstop beside him for almost half an hour.

Taking a deep breath, Jiang Si closed the book and glanced at her, "Aren't your mouth dry?"

After talking for so long, even if she wasn't tired, Jiang Si was tired of listening, combined with Bai Mei's novel.

Double torture.

Unexpectedly, this sentence seemed to strike a chord with Iris. She immediately tidied the hair at her temples and smiled generously, "It's fine, I'll drink whatever you buy. I'm not picky."

"When did I say I was buying you water?"

"But I suggest jasmine tea. On one hand, it's not too expensive, on the other hand, it suits my identity better..."

"Buy it yourself."

"Jiang Si, as the male party, you can't be this stingy. Girls won't like you."

"No money."

Iris immediately pulled out a hundred-yuan bill from her bosom and placed it in Jiang Si's hand, "I thought it was something serious. You don't need to return the change; I don't like collecting small change, it's too troublesome."

"You're really something." Jiang Si took the money, "I'm thirsty too anyway."

After buying a bottle of jasmine tea and a bottle of mineral water, when he returned, he saw two helicopters buzzing past in front of the station, a huge banner hanging from them almost dragging on the ground.

[Thank you Azure Cloud Sect for turning the tide when all seemed lost, supporting the collapsing edifice, broad-minded without bearing grudges, saving Beihai!]

Looking back at Iris, he saw her looking quite proud. As he approached, she pointed at the departing helicopters, "See that? That's my repayment to the Azure Cloud Sect. Since Beihai's Disaster Control Bureau won't thank the Azure Cloud Sect, I'll do it myself. I asked my family for the helicopters. I originally wanted to add a loudspeaker, but I thought it might be too disruptive and easily make people resent the Azure Cloud Sect. Hanging banners to let everyone know who truly saved Beihai is enough."

You considered things quite thoroughly.

Jiang Si casually threw the jasmine tea to her. With the remaining ninety-some yuan, although not much, buying cheaper fitness equipment wouldn't be difficult.

Adding a bit more money, he considered getting a set of knuckle dusters.

The Golden Core inside him was useful, but without a parasitic Disaster Beast, most of the time he couldn't squeeze out much magic power.

The method of controlling Disaster Beasts that Twins had was flawed. After trying it, it wasn't easy to use—at least it couldn't drive the Calamity Egg in his stomach.

If he could enchant weapons for a long time, he wouldn't need the Golden Core's magic power to break through Disaster Beasts and magical girls' defenses.

However, this involved artifact refining techniques, which he had never been good at.

Because he didn't like reading about artifact refining in web novels.

Previously, he forced Qinghua to practice artifact refining—her ability had great potential—but after three days...

Qinghua hugged his leg crying and shouting that she really couldn't do it. She'd rather study advanced mathematics than continue with artifact refining.

Plus, Bingtang felt sorry for her, so Jiang Si had to give up.

He knew a bit about alchemy, but here only Grief Seeds and Calamity Eggs could be refined.

He couldn't bear to refine Miracle Seeds. If they were refined away, it would be equivalent to directly losing a kind of strange fire—even the Flame Emperor himself might not be willing to do that.

This time, his goal was to get more Calamity Eggs from the Witch Association and see if he could refine treasure medicine by combining them with Grief Seeds.

As long as he could refine treasure medicine, combined with the Witch Association's method of controlling Disaster Beasts.

Even without hoping to reach Blooming, his physical body should be able to reach the peak great perfection of Seedling.

He was formulating plans and goals for this trip to Jiangming City in his heart.

Meanwhile, Iris beside him was still chattering about the possibility of discussing with headquarters later to include Winter and Shion in the Magical Girl Idol Project.

"Ah, when they're really released, I'll definitely pull until I get them maxed out. If you like them, I can also help you pull them maxed out for free. Oh, right, I remember you and your sister were saved by Senior Kingfisher. Do you want me to help you get Senior Kingfisher's swimsuit for free? The banner hasn't closed yet; if you register an account, you can still make it. Let me help you..."

It was hard to understand why she was so enthusiastic.

"I didn't buy a data plan for my phone."

"I can share my hotspot; I have unlimited data."

"My storage is full."

"Buy! I'll get you a new one right away!"

"I don't play games."

"Try it, just try it and you'll know. I didn't play before either. Anyway, it doesn't cost money." Iris was overflowing with enthusiasm, "Although because I'm not popular, headquarters won't give me a swimsuit, but I'll get one eventually. When that happens, I can also pull it for you for free."

After much pestering, Iris finally succeeded in giving Jiang Si one of her spare new phones.

Jiang Si glanced at the Magical Girl Idol Project on her phone—the gacha resources were maxed out.

He'd give it to Qinghua when he returned; she'd probably like it.

Only after boarding the high-speed train and when it started moving did Iris beside him finally settle down a bit.

"Don't worry, with me here, I guarantee you'll have a stable vacation this time..."

Before Iris, sitting in her seat, could finish her sentence, she fell asleep headfirst.

The other passengers nearby also gradually fell asleep.

A faint trace of magic power quickly spread throughout the carriage.

Jiang Si glanced at the soundly sleeping girl—Iris didn't even have any detection or tracking backups.

Jiang Si was convinced she really was here for vacation.

An enviable sense of relaxation.

Jiang Si got up from his seat, changed his ticket, and went to the next carriage.

Both carriages were very quiet, with almost all passengers fast asleep—one would think it was nighttime.

Walking to the third seat, he could see two familiar faces.

Bai Mei with her eyes closed and Twins with her twin tails tied.

In front of Twins was a small canvas with complex magic arrays that were currently flickering.

Looking around further, he could see similar small magic arrays in other parts of the carriage, resonating with each other, ultimately spreading imperceptible corrupted magic power throughout the two carriages, putting all passengers to sleep.

It was a small technique for using corrupted magic power—increasing ordinary people's fatigue to directly plunge them into deep sleep.

Twins was sitting upright with a quite serious expression, which was relatively rare for her.

But to Jiang Si, she had always seemed quite serious and timid in his eyes—even more timid than Yumo.

So it wasn't particularly surprising.

Bai Mei had already known he was coming. Before he even sat down, she poured him a cup of tea from across the table.

Twins' originally tense face immediately relaxed when she saw him.

Revealing a giggling expression.

This was the first time Jiang Si had seen this girl smile so happily.

Did she not smile before because she had something on her mind?

He sat down opposite Twins.

For this undercover mission to Jiangming City, of course they needed Twins' intelligence support.

After all, she was the only Witch Association mole in the entire Azure Cloud Sect.

"Are you the undercover agent Lady Bingtang mentioned?"

The girl in slippers swung her feet under the table, kicking his shins, "How come I didn't know our Azure Cloud Sect had men? Hey, how did you join our Azure Cloud Sect? You haven't become a formal disciple yet, have you? Outer sect? How pitiful, you'll never become a formal disciple in this lifetime, right? Hehe, call me senior sister, and I'll take you under my wing."

Bai Mei, who had just been drinking water, spat it out.

Jiang Si took a tissue from his pocket and wiped the water Bai Mei had spat out, "Where's your Miracle Seed?"

"Ah?"

Twins was stunned for a moment, then looked at Bai Mei in confusion, "Is he qualified to ask that?"

Bai Mei coughed twice, "Lady Bingtang, Lady Bingtang said the seed should be given to him."

"Oh." Although somewhat puzzled, Twins examined Jiang Si but still obediently handed over the seed.

After all, Bai Mei couldn't possibly lie to her.

This was a true disciple, moreover the first true disciple. In terms of status, she was several levels higher than Twins.

Twins had only recently obtained the position of inner sect disciple in the Azure Cloud Sect—previously she was outer sect. Because of outstanding performance, Lady Bingtang specially permitted her promotion to inner sect.

She naturally didn't dare act recklessly in front of Bai Mei, since the other party was a super important figure who could directly contact Bingtang and Shion.

Twins should try to curry favor with her... Unfortunately, no matter what topics Twins tried to bring up along the way, the other party wouldn't engage.

So when Bai Mei said the seed was for the young man across from them, Twins naturally gave it.

But it was still somewhat strange.

How could there be men in the Azure Cloud Sect?

Even if there were men, they should be unrelated peripheral personnel, impossible to mix into core positions. Forget inner sect disciples and personal disciples—even outer sect disciples needed to be able to transform into magical girls to join.

How could a boy possibly join our Azure Cloud Sect...

Wait!

Twins suddenly had a shocking realization and stared intently at Jiang Si for a long time.

"No way, no way!"

She examined Jiang Si carefully for another long moment.

Although reluctant to admit it, Twins had to acknowledge that this guy was somewhat handsome.

And when he didn't speak, his elegant appearance contrasted somewhat with his slightly cold and inexplicably fierce temperament.

In short, he could easily attract girls like Lady Bingtang who held high positions and came from wealthy families since childhood.

After all, bad boys easily attracted the attention of young ladies like Lady Bingtang. Coupled with some elegant disguise, it was practically cheating!

Lady Bingtang, could it be that she likes him!

Without her knowledge, he secretly captured Lady Bingtang's heart, and now he's even using Lady Bingtang's connections to forcibly take the Miracle Seed that Twins worked so hard to obtain!

Then with sweet words, he'll steal Twins' achievements, tricking Lady Bingtang into praising and commending him!

Twins had seen too many scumbags like this!

Damn it, so infuriating!

She bit her thumb, angrily sitting in her chair and curling her legs.

Eventually, she couldn't help but take off her shoes and stepped on Jiang Si's shoe with her foot, "Outer sect guy, what's your name? Even if Lady Bingtang likes you, you can't ignore the sect's rules, right? Twins is an inner sect disciple, your senior sister. Not only did you not greet me, you didn't even introduce yourself?"

Bai Mei, with her eyes closed, dropped the straw she was holding out of shock.

Stunned, she used her Mind's Eye to observe Twins and her master.

Fortunately, her master didn't have any particular reaction, just focused on studying the Miracle Seed in his hand.

Bai Mei gently poked the fuming Twins with her finger, "Don't, don't cause trouble..."

"Hmph, don't think just because Lady Bingtang favors you that you're something special. Twins just hasn't had the chance to return to the Azure Cloud Sect. When Twins returns to the Azure Cloud Sect, Lady Bingtang will definitely only look at me, take care of me, and won't pay any attention to you..."

While stepping on Jiang Si's instep, Twins started giggling again, "A little brat like you is still far from worthy of Lady Bingtang. Any two pretty older sisters could easily captivate you. I've seen plenty like you. Want to give it a try? Consider it a test of your loyalty to Lady Bingtang—see if you can resist the temptation of two pretty older sisters..."

Seeing her master finally raise his eyes and shift his attention from the Miracle Seed, a frightened Bai Mei quickly pulled at Twins, "Stop causing trouble!"

"I'm not causing trouble, senior sister. I'm just joking with him."

Just as Bai Mei was anxiously pacing, she suddenly remembered information she could disclose:

"Jiang Si is Lady Shion's boyfriend!"

Although she couldn't reveal to inner sect disciples that Jiang Si was Shion, which had prevented Bai Mei from knowing how to explain to Twins earlier.

But this piece of information could be told to inner sect disciples.

So she watched as Twins' originally giggling face froze.

For a long moment, she forced a dry laugh, "Impossible, how could that be..."

Bai Mei pulled at her, and Twins almost fell over stiffly.

Then she started giggling like she'd lost her mind:

"I was joking, I was joking, hehe. You surely won't mind, right? Since you can date the Sect Master, you definitely won't care about such small matters..."

The next second, she instantly knelt on the seat, banging her head on the table two or three times, almost knocking the table over.

"Twins was wrong, Twins was wrong. Please don't tell Lady Shion. I beg you, I don't want to die..."

The corner of Bai Mei's mouth twitched as she glanced at her master.

Oh no.

She felt like vomiting blood even without tomato sauce.

Jiang Si clearly didn't understand what Twins was doing at all.

He just glanced at Bai Mei, "Did Bingtang say your disciple was captured?"

Twins noticed the senior sister also panicking, "She was probably captured accidentally. My teaching was ineffective, making you laugh."

Twins panicked even more.

Holy shit, with this much respect, could they be planning to get married? This attitude of treating Jiang Si like he was Shion.

Clearly he was the teacher's wife—no, teacher's husband.

Twins felt like crying but had no tears.

Senior sister, why didn't you say so earlier?

"Go retrieve her this afternoon. Don't cause trouble for others."

"Yes!"

Jiang Si then looked up at Twins, who was trying to escape with her hands and feet, "Where are you going?"

"I, I need to pee..." Twins forced a smile, "I'll be right back."

Jiang Si stood up and said, "Let's go together."

Twins' heart tightened as she clamped her legs together, "Huh? I, I'm a proper girl."

Surprisingly, the young man nodded:

"Me too, let's go."

Twins' vision went dark.

Go where, you big ghost! Even if you're Lady Shion's boyfriend, I won't yield!

So she looked helplessly at Bai Mei.

Help me, senior sister!

Bai Mei also stood up and slowly nodded, "Then count me in too, I'll also go."

Huh? Is our Azure Cloud Sect such an open organization?
