"This... General Taiyin, do you truly have a solution for the Demonic Yin Body?"
Jing Yuan looked at Kiana solemnly, his tone devoid of any hint of jest.
If Kiana really had a way to solve it...
Not to mention Jingliu, who was currently falling into a Demonic Yin Body state with her aura steadily rising, it would be a massive boon for the entire Alliance.
Originally, curing the Demonic Yin Body was impossible, but Jing Yuan knew Kiana's true identity...
The General of the Xianzhou Alliance's Wangshu Astral Express in another universe!
Since she said there was a solution, then her Xianzhou must have already overcome the Demonic Yin Body and implemented it across the entire Alliance!
Kiana knew Jing Yuan was anxious, but listen to me, don't be anxious just yet.
Because...
"Before that, we should stabilize big sister Jingliu first, otherwise we won't be able to have a proper conversation."
Kiana said, looking toward the somewhat frenzied Jingliu, who was deep in the throes of Mara.
"Indeed. If we let her continue her rampage, not just this Scalegorge Waterscape, but I'm afraid even the Luofu won't know peace."
Jing Yuan shook his head with a wry smile, then held his Array Glaive at his side, facing Jingliu in a defensive stance.
"Hehehe... Hahahaha...!!!"
Black mist swirled around Jingliu, her eyes flickering with crimson. Her laughter was utterly frenzied, like a malevolent spirit from the abyss.
"I take the moonlight as my sword..."
With a slightly crazed whisper, in an instant, it was as if a bright moon had risen in the sky.
Jingliu leaped high, eerie blue moonlight condensing in her hand. Gripping the Transience Sword lightly, the entire Scalegorge Waterscape was covered in Frost, completely enveloped by Jingliu's baleful aura.
Seeing Jingliu's aura still rising, Jing Yuan quickly summoned the Lightning-Lord to contend with her.
"!!"
Jing Yuan's pupils constricted. Had Jingliu actually become this strong...?
Even with the Lightning-Lord active, he couldn't suppress her in terms of magnitude?
Although part of it was due to the difficulty of going all out, his master actually had the strength to contend with an Emanator now...
This couldn't help but make him wonder if she had truly encountered some immense fortuitous opportunity over the years.
"Kiana, we're here to help!"
March 7th landed beside Kiana, using her ability to create a longbow of Six Phases of Ice Burning with icy flames.
Kiana gave March 7th a surprised look; she hadn't expected her little airhead March to be able to create new skills on her own.
Stelle, Dan Heng, and Welt also arrived beside Kiana, looking solemnly at Jingliu while using their respective abilities.
"Kiana, this is the Xianzhou's Demonic Yin Body state... it's said there is no true cure..."
Welt pushed up his glasses and looked at Kiana. He felt that Kiana should have a strategy to break it.
Dan Heng also cast a hopeful gaze.
Although she wanted to separate herself from her past life, the emotions for these 'friends' in her memories were hard to part with.
If Jingliu could be freed from the suffering of Mara, Dan Heng would agree to any request Kiana had.
"There is, everyone! There is!"
Kiana puffed out her chest proudly, her little tongue poking out from the corner of her mouth in a playful and cute manner.
Then, her hands formed claws, with translucent pale purple threads connecting her fingertips.
The other end of the threads reached deep into the Akasha. No one except Kiana and the nearby Mei and Bronya knew what was on the other end.
Kiana manipulated the threads, plugging into the internal Path system of this universe, eventually finding the keyword related to the Demonic Yin Body.
"Equilibrium... Hmm, change this, and this, hmm... modify that too..."
Kiana's fingers twitched as she muttered to herself, leaving the others somewhat confused.
"Kiana, if you do this, the Demonic Yin Body in this universe will completely disappear. I think it's better to keep the Demonic Yin Body and only lift the restrictions for some people."
Bronya said with a serious expression, her eyes glowing with blue light.
"Hmm... that makes sense."
Kiana nodded slightly after a moment's thought, then tinkered for a bit longer.
Just as Jingliu was laughing and about to slash down with her sword qi, her body suddenly froze.
"Let this moonlight! Shine upon..."
Jingliu stopped mid-sentence. Her eyes suddenly became incredibly clear, and her lips slowly closed, no longer speaking.
Seeing Jingliu return to normal, Jing Yuan and Dan Heng clearly breathed a sigh of relief.
Even deep within Bailu's heart, a trace of relief welled up, though even Bailu herself didn't know why she felt that way.
"Done~"
Kiana smiled easily, and the threads in her hands dissipated into light fragments.
She was getting more and more proficient at using the world's backend operating system!
She used her world permissions to modify the Demonic Yin Body state for some people, so that after those modified individuals triggered the Demonic Yin Body...
"Meow~"
Suddenly, a cute meow uncontrollably popped out of Jingliu's mouth.
Realizing what happened, Jingliu's cold, beautiful eyes widened, and she hurriedly covered her mouth.
From her panicked gaze and reddened ears, it was clear she was quite embarrassed.
A hint of amusement flashed in Kiana's slightly narrowed eyes, her mouth curving into an 'ω' shape.
The Demonic Yin Body state had completely turned into a "Mara-Meow" state.
Whenever the condition flared up, they would...
To everyone's astonishment, Jingliu walked over and picked up Bailu, then rubbed against her cheek with a cute expression.
"Meow~ Meow~"
Jingliu rubbed against the cheek of the somewhat bewildered Bailu, looking extremely comfortable.
After a few rubs, Jingliu's movements paused slightly. She slowly scanned her surroundings and found everyone looking at her with "I didn't expect you to be this kind of person" expressions.
*Poof—*
In an instant, a large amount of steam drifted from the top of Jingliu's head. Her cheeks were flushed pink, her lips pursed, and her right hand gathered eerie blue energy.
"Let..."
Let...?
Stelle tilted her head, looking at Jingliu with confusion. Let what?
March 7th shared Stelle's confusion. What did this big sister—who had just gone crazy, then returned to normal, and then acted unusually cute—want to say?
Dan Heng's eyes narrowed slightly as he watched the energy gathering in her hand; a sense of foreboding welled up in his heart.
Jing Yuan was the same, stroking his chin and narrowing his eyes, a flash of nostalgia passing through them.
Mei and Bronya narrowed their eyes and quietly hid their bodies, vanishing into the Akasha.
"Let this moonlight... Shine Upon Every Stream!!!"
Holding Bailu with one hand, Jingliu leaped high. Under the little one's terrified gaze, she used the moonlight Frost as sword qi and slashed at the people below.
This strike was a simple attack without much energy mixed in. For the people below, a simple counter would dissipate it.
Jing Yuan's movements were faster than anyone's. With a slight curl of his lips, he gripped his Array Glaive with both hands and slashed upward, carrying golden lightning.
*Zzzt— Boom—!*
The two attacks, which seemed to possess boundless power, collided, letting out a violent roar.
"Cough, cough, cough... what is all this? In the end, we still got hit..."
Amidst the explosion caused by the energy impact, March 7th complained in a delicate voice while coughing.
She had originally thought Kiana had solved the other person's terrible whatever-state.
But now it seemed it was solved, but not completely!
Kiana watched the cold and elegant lady land slowly with a shy expression, a joyful smile on her face.
Mara-Meow state, do you like it?
Big sister Jingliu~
Stelle subconsciously took a step back. She seemed to see a wagging devil's Tail behind Kiana.
