Chapter 778 - 243: (Second Update)

"Is it possible that she has a penchant for these things herself..."

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

With his posture realigned, the prince stubbornly maintained his surface-level pride, "I was just joking earlier."

"It’s obvious."

"...How come I didn’t see it?"

"Perhaps you amused yourself first."

The prince twitched the corners of his mouth, but finally maintained his royal family’s noble smile, "Fine, fine, fine, fine..."

"Did you stutter?"

"I’m fine, I just want to ask you, the Miracle Seed, can I have it now?"

Jiang Si didn’t hesitate and immediately took out the Miracle Seed given to him by the Cyan Simurgh.

Iris’s Full Bloom Miracle Seed, locking a blossoming flower inside, unable to break out.

Clearly a cyan seed, yet the flower emanates a purple radiance.

Undoubtedly, that is Zi Yuan’s magic power.

And this flower is the key to Full Bloom.

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

The prince’s scarlet pupils squinted, "What do you mean? Changed your mind, choosing the Cyan Cloud Sect after all, huh? A double-dealer, truly..."

"No, I’m thinking, without a Heart Image Domain, can you really achieve perfect Full Bloom?"

Jiang Si’s tone is earnest, "I’m a bit worried you’ll fail."

After acquiring the Heart Image Domain, one realizes how useful it is.

The Heart Image Domain can even lock one’s magic power.

Without the Heart Image Domain, the Full Bloom you achieve is at most like the Jade Fox, right?

With a Heart Image versus without, magic girls are separated by a high wall, like empty-handed versus armed.

"Don’t worry."

For some reason, the prince’s tone seemed much lighter, "We’ve already prepared for this, I will obtain the Heart Image Domain."

"From where?"

"Of course from the magical girls, where else?" The prince said as if it were self-evident, "You don’t need to worry about this, the technology of the Mirror Country is omnipotent!"

[Warning: It’s a high possibility but does not guarantee absolute certainty...]

Ignoring the system’s nonsense, the prince finally showed a rare smile after receiving the Miracle Seed thrown over by Jiang Si.

Then he said:

"By the way, there’s a child who wants to join the New Witch Association, and even wishes to be your confidant."

"Who?"

The prince clapped his hands, the mirror space folded, finally revealing a small room where a little girl quietly sat by a table, motionless.

"Bai Hu."

At the prince’s call, the girl finally turned her head, eyebrows and skin both pure white, with one white pupil.

Her appearance seemed somewhat familiar to Jiang Si, but he couldn’t recall where he’d seen her. Accompanied by a white pupil, there was a white pure and transparent sense of nothingness.

Her steps were light, almost silent, as she walked over, her expression still wooden.

Like a robot.

"This child wants to join the New Witch Association, Bai Hu, this is Mr. Si Motu."

Bai Hu finally turned her pupils towards Si Motu and then slightly bent over, bowing very politely.

"Hello, Mr. Si Motu."

Jiang Si simply asked, "What’s your dream? Those who join the New Witch Association must have dreams."

"Yes sir."

The girl spoke in an ethereal and otherworldly manner, "My dream is to kill your girlfriend Zi Yuan, to destroy the Cyan Cloud Sect, sir."

Jiang Si tilted his head, "Why?"

"For revenge."

The white pure and transparent girl said so, "Sir, I come from the Black Mountain Realm."

"Jade Fox is my adoptive mother."

...

Returning to the dormitory, Lord Bingtang couldn’t help but sigh.

Si Ye on the other side quickly filled a cup of tea, jogging over to serve Lord Bingtang, "Lord Bingtang, have some tea."

"Not in the Cyan Cloud Sect, just call me sister when there’s no one around."

Then Si Ye sweetly smiled, "Yes, sister!"

Lord Bingtang was satisfied and patted Si Ye’s head.

Because the Cyan Cloud Sect needs to match Jiang Si’s preferences, so the usual address must distinguish between seniority.

But when truly there’s no one around, Lord Bingtang still likes to be called sister by everyone.

After all, being called ’lord’ sounds so old.

She’s not like those magic elders in web novels who have lived for hundreds of years.

Surveying the surroundings, after the Heart Image Trial ended, everyone who needed to leave had left.

Because there are still many matters on Cyan Cloud Sect’s side—whether handling the Old World or dealing with Disaster Beasts, it’s always more secure with the True Inheritance in place.

For Lord Bingtang, she’s different from those Old World [remnants] and Disaster Beasts.

Cyan Cloud Sect cannot accept casualties.

Back when Cyan Cloud Sect was confined to Beihai, it was easier to say, but now with large-scale expansion beginning, still wanting zero casualties.

It’s a tough task, requiring attention to numerous details.

Not wanting any accidents to happen, even less wanting the Sect Leader to babysit, Cyan Cloud Sect must do its job well outside of the Sect Leader, to prove its worth.

However, giving the Sect Leader so much money last time, spending it this quickly was somewhat surprising for Lord Bingtang.

Need to extract some funds from home for the Sect Leader to have on hand.

Even with so much money, occasionally when going out with Jiang Si, if they see money fallen on the ground, Jiang Si’s habit is still to quickly pick it up.

"Why bother picking up that little money..."

"No matter how rich, money fallen on the ground must be picked up. I once read a web novel, where someone kept picking up money from the ground, dime by dime, until they became a millionaire!"
