Kiana, meanwhile, gazed at Jingliu, pondering how to dispel her Demonic Yin Body state.
The simplest way was to sign her up, then have her die once to directly ascend as an Eidolon.
Another method was to erase her memories.
But this only targeted Jingliu's specific symptom of being Demonic Yin Body.
There were a total of five symptoms for being Demonic Yin Body.
They were Crippled, Stained, Wrathful, Transformed, and Unconscious.
Jingliu belonged to the Wrathful symptom.
To completely eliminate the Demonic Yin Body state, Xianzhou natives needed to completely abandon their Long-Life Species identity, or Kiana could use her clearance to transform them into other types of Long-Life Species, such as Pseudo-Herrschers.
But these were not what Kiana needed to consider at the moment.
And this Demonic Yin Body state was truly formidable; even after Jingliu became a Destruction Emanator, she was still affected by it.
As Kiana pondered, Aponia's voice appeared in her mind.
"Kiana, bring her to me..."
"Are you planning to solve it with Precepts?"
"Some simple uses of Precepts can serve as basic mental therapy..."
"Alright..."
Kiana nodded upon hearing this, then looked at Bai Heng.
"Bai Heng, bring Miss Jingliu and follow me. I'll take her to a place that can help alleviate her Demonic Yin Body state."
"No problem..."
Bai Heng nodded slightly, then picked up Jingliu's cold, soft body.
"Kiana, I still need to patrol with the squad, so I won't go with you."
Although Mei really wanted to accompany Kiana, she still had work to do... otherwise, she couldn't just let the squad patrol alone, could she?
After all, she was still a Cloud Knight Captain; if she were truly so irresponsible, it would be difficult to manage her soldiers in the future.
"Okay, then Mei, you and Bronya come to my house for dinner tonight!"
"Okay, see you tonight."
Mei's cheeks revealed shallow dimples, and she smiled with narrowed eyes.
Then Kiana, holding Bailu's small hand, followed Aponia's guidance and led Bai Heng and Jingliu to the entrance of a shop.
Precepts Mental Sanatorium
There was also a signboard at the entrance, which read:
If your heart feels lost, anxious, restless, or you worry about the activation of your Demonic Yin Body state, you may all come here and confide in me. I will listen and guide the lost out of their predicament.
"Aponia also opened a shop, and it's a mental health clinic..."
Kiana said in surprise.
She wondered if it was because Cocolia and Natasha already had two orphanages.
She had thought Aponia would found an orphanage, but she never expected Aponia to become a life mentor for the lost.
Suddenly, Aponia's outrageous figure appeared in Kiana's mind.
'Indeed, she can 'guide'...'
Bah, bah, bah, This Young Miss is not a pervert; I was just led astray by those memories! Yes, that must be it!
Aponia, who had been speaking in Kiana's mind from time to time, suddenly fell silent.
Kiana led the three into the sanatorium.
The interior of the sanatorium was very simple, with only a small room inside resembling a church confessional.
"Kiana, bring the unfortunate person afflicted by Demonic Yin Body inside..."
Aponia's ethereal voice came from inside the confessional.
Kiana nodded at the somewhat hesitant Bai Heng, who then dared to take Jingliu inside.
After all, the layout here was too simple, not at all like a medical clinic?
After the two walked in, a soft, pale golden glow quickly began to shine from the confessional.
"Mmm~ this light feels so comfortable, it makes my nerves relax."
The edge of the glow happened to envelop Bailu, making her let out comfortable and contented moans.
This sound made Kiana involuntarily glance sideways. If Bailu grew up a little more, would it count as seducing her?
But fortunately, Kiana felt she wasn't a lolicon, so she casually turned her head away, looking at the confessional.
This power... Aponia must have integrated the abilities of Precepts, as well as her own Breath of God.
And while this effect couldn't completely cure the Demonic Yin Body state, it could indeed effectively suppress it.
At least after one treatment, there was no need to worry about the Demonic Yin Body state affecting oneself in the short term.
Just this effect alone would probably make this shop explode in popularity across all Xianzhou... and... Aponia was probably also trying to cultivate her own power while doing good deeds, which was killing two birds with one stone.
The treatment didn't last long; the golden light gradually dissipated, and Bai Heng walked out holding Jingliu.
Jingliu also woke up due to the healing; at this moment, she felt nothing more than extreme physical fatigue, otherwise, she was fine.
Moreover, she felt that her Demonic Yin Body state didn't require much power to suppress it.
This feeling... was unprecedentedly good!
"It seems my treatment was indeed effective."
Aponia, who also walked out, smiled with satisfaction as she looked at Jingliu, whose eyes had become incredibly clear.
"Thank you, Jingliu will not forget this kindness."
After Jingliu got down from Bai Heng's embrace, she respectfully nodded to Aponia.
Although her tone was still cool, a sense of gratitude could still be heard within it.
"It was merely a small effort. If the Demonic Yin Body state recurs in the future, you can come back here to find me."
"Jingliu will remember."
Jingliu nodded in agreement.
Then she turned her gaze to Kiana.
This young girl, who was not at a disadvantage against the Abyssal Star just over a month ago, had grown to this extent in such a short time... Jingliu couldn't imagine how she did it.
But fortunately, this time, because she met an old friend, the Demonic Yin Body state that could have made her lose control due to guilt and sadness was easily resolved by this young girl.
No, it should be said that the Taiyin General of Xianzhou easily resolved it, which was a blessing in misfortune.
"Miss, I know I'm beautiful, but if you keep staring at me like that, I'll get shy."
Kiana said awkwardly, being stared at.
Bailu's small face glanced at Kiana with a hint of disdain.
Aren't all the women present great beauties, possessing what they should? Who would covet her beauty!
As for Bailu herself?
Look at Bai Heng, that was her future growth path!
"Thank you for stopping me, little sister."
Jingliu said, looking at Kiana with gratitude.
If she hadn't been stopped, and she had once again killed her friend, who had inexplicably revived, she might have truly collapsed.
At that point, she, who was determined to seek revenge on the Abundance, might have turned into a monster capable only of destruction.
'If you want to thank me, why not offer yourself to me!'
Looking at Jingliu's ice-cold face, which had melted, Kiana thought distractedly.
However, Kiana didn't expect that what she was thinking would actually be mumbled aloud.
And there were no ordinary people present, so they naturally heard Kiana's quiet murmur.
Jingliu's eyes slightly narrowed, smiling as she looked at Kiana, her pale, thin lips parting slightly.
"If little sister doesn't mind an older sister, there's no harm in it."
Perhaps it was because her Demonic Yin Body state was completely suppressed, or because the person she cared about most had revived, but Jingliu actually felt a hint of playfulness.
"Ah??!"
Kiana's eyes widened upon hearing this, and she looked at Aponia in disbelief, a faint blush creeping up her earlobes.
"I... I said it out loud?"
"A very bold statement, Kiana."
Aponia clasped her hands together, nodding with a smile.
Kiana, whose cheeks were flushed, now wanted to find a hole to crawl into.
And, luckily, Mei wasn't present, or else if there was a misunderstanding, everything would be ruined!
"Ahem, Bailu, I'll continue to take you out to play, let's go!"
Kiana hurriedly pulled Bailu's small hand and left the place.
Bai Heng and Jingliu exchanged glances, then held hands and followed Kiana.
Aponia walked to the door, saw that there were no other customers around, closed the shop, and followed the group.
