Chapter 204: Heian Dispersion

“Ma Ma, since you have so many devious ideas, you probably don’t need me to speak up for you. You can handle everything yourself.”

“That’s true.”

Luo You nodded.

“Don’t forget, I’m older than you. An adult’s way of handling things is much more mature than yours.”

“Humph!”

Zhi Zhi only snorted before walking away.

Luo You gathered up her drafts, ready to go to the press conference.

She also made some additional arrangements, aiming to divide public opinion.

At the same time—

“Bai He, we can get ready to act.”

“No, we still have to wait.”

“You’ve found that child’s location, and the Wrath-Eater Giant Spirit is almost at your place. Why are you still waiting?”

“Jin Lin is still in Huahai City, and Xing Yue also treats this place as a base. If we act directly, we might run into Xing Yue head-on. We need to wait for a time when Xing Yue isn’t here, or lure Jin Lin far away from Huahai City.” Bai He said helplessly, “I’ll go negotiate with the Wrath-Eater Giant Spirit. That guy was once hunted by Xing Yue like a stray dog. He’ll agree.”

“Hurry! Another heavyweight guest is about to cross the Realm Sea to get here. We can’t wait any longer!”

“Understood.”

Standing high up and looking down at the scenery below, Bai He let out a sigh.

This job is truly exhausting.

Gaining the Gray Witch, awakening the Black Candle Giant Spirit, receiving another great being from the Realm Sea, uniting a number of dragon-level dimensional beasts, deploying fusion warriors, recruiting all possible factions…

There are just too many steps to complete.

The difficulty is indeed high, but once accomplished, it’ll come infinitely close to an instant kill.

All nations will find it nearly impossible to organize any effective counterattack, and social order will inevitably face collapse.

Suddenly, the air inside the room became heavily constricted, and a feeling of suffocation quickly spread through his whole body.

Bai He slowly turned around.

“Your Excellency Wrath-Eater, greetings.”

The tall, thin figure that had suddenly appeared behind him looked quite ordinary, nothing noteworthy, yet made every cell in Bai He’s fusion-warrior body instinctively sound the alarm.

Between living creatures, just by making eye contact, you can tell who is the hunter and who is the prey.

Clearly, in front of this man, the whole world was his prey.

If he unleashed his full strength, perhaps even Xing Yue would bleed.

“Where is the target?” the Wrath-Eater Giant Spirit asked in a low, rumbling voice.

“Right below, but I must ask you to wait a while longer.”

“Why?”

Wrath-Eater walked to the window, drawing back his razor-sharp gaze as he stared at Luo You, who was speaking at the gates of Huahai City.

That one… is the Gray Witch?

“Magical Girl Xing Yue may be in this city. We must look for the right opportunity. If she comes out to interfere, the plan might have to stop.”

“Once you find the right moment, inform me!”

Wrath-Eater Giant Spirit said in a deep voice.

It was clear he was also extremely wary of Xing Yue’s existence.

“Actually, I need your help, sir.”

Bai He quickly explained his plan, “You just need to show yourself a little further away to cause chaos. That will make it much more likely that Xing Yue will be lured out!”

“Tonight, the border checkpoint at the Realm Sea of Nine Abyss Sea will fall. Be prepared.”

Leaving only these words, Wrath-Eater’s figure vanished.

Bai He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

“As expected of the Wrath-Eater Giant Spirit, even his casual words are weighty.”

For the heavily guarded border checkpoint at Nine Abyss Sea’s Realm Sea to fall—just how powerful does one have to be to talk about that like it’s as easy as eating or drinking?

If that’s the case, then there’s nothing left to hesitate about.

Bai He picked up the encrypted communicator and contacted an elite fusion warrior team.

“Heian, do you copy?”

“This is Heian, copy. Please proceed.”

“Get ready to carry out the capture. The results will come tonight. Await my instructions!”

“Received. Repeating, received.”

Gently setting down the communicator, Bai He found his palm already covered in cold sweat…

This operation would directly determine the success or failure of their future.

“All right, now they can’t say anything more, can they?”

Luo You packed up and returned to the division headquarters building.

Outside, the noisy media tried to barge in for photos but were firmly blocked by security at the door.

She dropped everything and went straight to Xing Yue’s dormitory, planning to grab Xing Yue’s pillow to use as a footrest.

However—

“Eh? Zhi Zhi, why are you still here?”

Zhi Zhi was rolling around on the bed, muttering, “I was just here talking with Xing Yue for a bit.”

Luo You’s nose twitched.

Yes, there really was Xing Yue’s scent lingering in the air.

“Where’d she go this time?”

“Who knows. How could I possibly figure out the First Seat’s whereabouts~”

Looking at Zhi Zhi’s lazy demeanor, Luo You’s expression slowly changed.

After being a magical girl for so long, it’s time to start attacking Yi Zhi.

Want to quit your mommy complex?

How could I let you get away with that!

Hand yourself over!

“Zhi Zhi, let’s take some post pictures.”

“Eh?”

Zhi Zhi sat up as quick as a radish being pulled.

She saw Luo You already taking off her stockings and hurriedly asked, “Posting now? Here? That’s… isn’t that a bit much?”

“Didn’t you say you didn’t care about doing it in Xing Yue’s dorm? Besides, she just left. That makes it even more exciting.”

“But, but what about clothes? Did you prepare anything?”

“No problem. We can just wear Xing Yue’s stuff.”

“That’s way too much!”

Zhi Zhi couldn’t help but protest.

Using someone else’s place and someone else’s clothes—can a magical girl really do this sort of thing?

And those posts, Xing Yue will definitely see them!

“No problem.”

Luo You gave a thumbs-up, her mischievous grin making Zhi Zhi dizzy.

“Relax, I won’t do anything to you. If you don’t want to call me Mom, that’s fine too. It’s just been a while since we updated, just a normal post. Why are you so scared of me all of a sudden?”

“…Who’s scared of you!? Lady Zhi Zhi, that’s who! Watch your mouth!”

Zhi Zhi bristled.

She’d only taken a trip back to Nine Abyss Sea and, after truly experiencing family warmth, felt even more guilty and excited about treating Luo You as her X fantasy object than before, and had to forcibly restrain herself.

If she did the mother-daughter play again in this situation, she was afraid she couldn’t suppress her impulses and her true nature would be exposed!

So she wanted to wait for a while, let this guilt and thrill cool down before continuing their shameful mother-daughter play.

However…

Yet this rational restraint was actually being treated by this imp as a sign of weakness?

The nerve!

“If anything happens, you better be ready to take full responsibility, mentally and emotionally.”

Zhi Zhi said coldly.

After saying that, she felt no more confusion in her heart.

***

A few hours later—

Night was falling, many families had finished dinner and were settling into their nightlife.

Luo You also posted the finished content.

“My daughter suddenly offered to help Mom wash the dishes, I was so touched~ but she’s a bit clumsy and broke all the plates~~”

Attached were several photos.

Even though they had been specially edited, the outfits in the pictures still had a hint of naughtiness.

She really was washing dishes properly, but she was only wearing an apron.
