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

Actually, Iris and Jiang Si weren't very familiar.

Although she had given him a chance to pursue her back then, and he had been quite eager to run errands for her, like buying water—Iris herself didn't remember this very clearly.

She only remembered that at the station when they were going to Jiangming City, Jiang Si had been exceptionally attentive, asking if she wanted something to eat or drink.

Because his attitude was so sincere, Iris's heart softened a little and she gave him a chance.

But that guy didn't even bring money; she ended up paying for it herself. Though she forgot how much it was, Iris remembered his profuse thanks and gratitude.

That look of admiration and worship on Jiang Si's face, Iris remembered it to this day and often sighed inwardly.

Another little boy had fallen for her beauty and charm.

One glimpse of Iris and a lifetime is lost!

Ah, well, there's no helping it. Beautiful girls are just so popular. Dealing with suitors was something Iris was already very experienced with. In fact, Jiang Si being able to leave an impression on her was mostly thanks to Ruri.

Her rival's disciple.

It was precisely because Jiang Si had the identity of being Magical Girl Ruri's older brother that Iris remembered this suitor who didn't interact with her much.

Otherwise, with so many suitors in the past, how could she possibly have the mind to remember each and every one of them?

Originally, she didn't plan to intervene in this matter—Iris was just feeling a bit lonely alone at the Disaster Control Bureau and came to Beihai to find Qingluan to play. Every time she called, Qingluan always said she was busy, busy, busy. Iris wanted to see what she was so busy with.

Anyway, now the Disaster Control Bureau was practically equivalent to being taken over by the Azure Cloud Sect. Beihai's current status was even above the Central Bureau, so Jincha didn't refuse this matter either.

But as soon as she arrived, she saw the true-transmission disciples chasing Jiang Si.

Actually, at first, Iris didn't intend to take action; she was just observing.

After all, Jiang Si was a good boy, and he was also Magical Girl Ruri's good older brother, aside from being a bit short.

Surely their Azure Cloud Sect wouldn't try to kill an ordinary resident who was a good man of Beihai, right?

But they really could!

When she saw Thousand-Pinweed directly going for the kill against Jiang Si, Iris was shocked.

Holy crap, this is going too far!

She originally thought it was just Jiang Si having a fight with his sister, and Shion had sent her true-transmission disciples to capture him to vent her anger for her disciple—after all, Shion was protective of her people. But this was straight-up murder?

At first, she wondered if this true-transmission disciple was acting out of line.

But upon careful thought, given the personality of her rival Shion, if Jiang Si had done something to anger her, she probably would really kill him.

The more she thought about it, the more likely it seemed.

Then, Iris immediately realized one thing.

Besides herself, no one in this world could save Jiang Si.

Because only she was worthy of being Shion's rival; others simply couldn't be Shion's match!

Simo Tu might let it slide for her sake.

Of course, in reality, Iris still didn't plan to directly intervene. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

Because defeating an Azure Cloud Sect true-transmission disciple head-on was too undignified.

She, Iris, might be young and cute, appearing very naive, but in reality, her mind was full of schemes.

The optimal solution in this situation was still to find an opportunity, while the Azure Cloud Sect wasn't paying attention, to take Jiang Si away.

Then privately find Shion and set up a table at KFC.

Give her, Iris, some face, punish herself with three times the amount of Coca-Cola, and let this matter pass.

She had already simulated in her mind what to do next, so Iris didn't intend to take action.

But then.

"Mental Landscape—"

"Deploy!"

Anyone who could resist not deploying their own Mental Landscape along with it was a god!

In such a heated atmosphere, when mana rumbled like a giant drum.

It was simply impossible to resist!

The vibe was there; even if you didn't know how, you'd have to learn on the spot and deploy your Mental Landscape too!

"Jiang Si is, after all, a boy who pursued me. As a Magical Girl, I can't just watch him being chased down and do nothing. Sorry, everyone, I'm taking him away."

This was actually just an excuse; she simply wanted to deploy her Mental Landscape along with them.

As for saving Jiang Si, she'd deal with that later!

Although the strength of the two true-transmission disciples was not to be underestimated, possessing power not inferior to her, Iris.

With just one contact, Iris could judge.

These two both had about five fingers' worth of Shion's strength.

But sorry, once inside a Mental Landscape, it was Iris's world.

With years of Mental Landscape combat experience, once inside a Mental Landscape, she was the undisputed queen!

For example, Thousand-Pinweed had a Diffusion-type Mental Landscape. If left to spread freely, it would next destroy her Mental Landscape from the outside.

But Iris had long since developed a method to deal with Diffusion-type Mental Landscapes.

Gravity sink, directly pressing the three of them and their three Mental Landscapes into the ground!

Replacement-type Mental Landscapes, because of their characteristic of directly replacing the world, could actually ignore the environment. Even in spatial turbulence, a Replacement-type Mental Landscape could instantly replace that patch of spatial turbulence with its own Mental Landscape site, unaffected by the surrounding environment.

But Diffusion-type was different. With the surrounding environment like this, the diffusion speed would slow down significantly, requiring the use of mana and destructive magic to accelerate expansion, leading to an even greater disadvantage against Replacement-type Mental Landscapes!

Originally planning to decide the victor, Yumo and Thousand-Pinweed both silently watched the other perform.

Anyway, the act was about done. With such a troublesome person butting in, the passion of both had cooled.

The two looked at each other.

Let's compete: whose Mental Landscape shatters faster also means whose acting is better, who executed the task of helping the Sect Master better!

On the other side, Iris was still conducting her operation commentary:

"This is another method to deal with Diffusion-type Mental Landscapes. As long as you fuse the edge with the Diffusion-type Mental Landscape, you can make the edge of the Replacement-type Mental Landscape spread along with the Diffusion-type. Of course, due to the closed nature of the Replacement Mental Landscape, it will collapse after spreading to a certain extent, so it's actually just an emergency method."

Thousand-Pinweed showed a pale face, clutched her chest, and revealed a pained expression, but still took out her Magic Wand, her tone resolute, like Cedric Diggory, "Wands out, d'you reckon?"

Thousand-Pinweed's favorite line, number one. She had long wanted to try saying it once.

However, as Iris waved her hand and the fused boundary shattered, Thousand-Pinweed immediately let out a cry and fell to the ground.

Iris looked at Thousand-Pinweed lying on the ground and just smiled slightly. Although she didn't understand what foreign nonsense she spouted at the end, there was no need to care about the words of the loser!

Lying on the ground, secretly peeking with one eye to look above.

Sure enough, her exquisite acting had fooled Iris. The cyan Magical Girl didn't notice at all and just continued:

"But depending on the situation, this method can also be used like this."

However, Iris looked at Thousand-Pinweed lying on the ground and just smiled slightly.

As expected of me, even against true-transmission disciples, it's a breeze.

Iris hooked her finger again. The edge of the Gravity Mental Landscape, along with Thousand-Pinweed's teetering Mental Landscape, spread to the outer edge of Yumo's Mental Landscape.

Gravity fiercely pressed down on the outer edge of Yumo's Mental Landscape.

The Valley of Wind, roaring with thunder, began to tremble!

Yumo actually spat out a mouthful of blood.

Thousand-Pinweed, lying on the ground, twitched an eyelid.

Holy crap, it's a prop match! Damn, I was careless! Didn't prepare any props!

"Ah, I, I can't hold on anymore..."

But hearing Yumo's utterly emotionless, even stiff-to-the-extreme tone, Thousand-Pinweed immediately relaxed.

Thank goodness, Yumo's acting skills were practically nonexistent. An amateur was just an amateur. Even at the point of spitting blood, her base makeup was flawless and pale, not a drop of sweat or blood stain on her face, her hairstyle perfectly in place, her Magical Outfit bright as new, and she was still holding the Sect Master's doll...

Pure foundation true-transmission, can't even deliver lines smoothly. You might as well just shout "123456" and wait for post-production dubbing...

The two true-transmission disciples desperately disassembled their Mental Landscapes, wanting theirs to shatter before the other's.

And Iris, looking at the two true-transmission disciples' teetering Mental Landscapes, felt an unprecedented sense of exhilaration and confidence fill her chest.

Indeed, my domain is the strongest!

She clenched her fist hard towards their domains.

"This strike represents my deep-sea-level understanding of Mental Landscapes. I'll only teach this once, so learn well!"

As the two's Mental Landscapes crumbled,

Iris calmly walked towards the outside:

"Next, I will not lose a single match! I'll fight all the way to Shion's face!"

Watch, Qingluan, my Beihai one-versus-four sweep!

"As long as Lord Jiang Si's Golden Calamity Dragon King form launches an attack, everything will be fine!"

Actually, those dispatched by the Prince to rescue weren't just Alice, but also many old world members.

Among them, the more representative ones were Magical Girl Qianying and Shui Shengquan.

Others might be able to leave the Mirror Kingdom, but they absolutely could not.

After all, both of them had obtained Full Bloom quota slots. The chance to turn their lives around was right before their eyes; how could they be willing to give it up?

But no one really dared to get close to Beihai.

Not to mention Shion, even those true-transmission disciples were insurmountable mountains to them.

Therefore, most were watching from afar in independent spaces, continuously cheering for Alice and Jiang Si.

Then, when Iris flew out from underground, heading straight for Simo Tu.

A cacophony of noisy voices grew even sharper, and among them, Shui Shengquan's voice suddenly rose, suppressing most of the others.

"Stop arguing! The timing here is crucial! Don't disturb Lord Simo Tu's train of thought! Whether to transform or not is for Lord Simo Tu to judge himself."

Her Full Bloom quota slot was originally issued by Simo Tu, so naturally, she didn't want anything to happen to Simo Tu.

After all, if something happened to Simo Tu, who knew if the Mirror Kingdom's Majesty would go crazy and take back her Full Bloom quota slot.

Qianying beside her was also nervously stomping her foot.

"Transform, transform! Why isn't he transforming yet! If he doesn't transform here to cut off the Azure Cloud Sect's pursuit, he won't be able to escape! Transform!"

"Does he even know how to play? I'd transform if I were him!"

"What's Alice doing? Still filming, still filming! Do something useful, Alice!"

The many old world spectators' comments were sent to Jiang Si in real-time by Alice. Jiang Si had no time to pay attention to them.

Because Iris had already blocked the way.

Currently, she exuded an aura of "invincible with me here," even making Jiang Si glance sideways.

This Magical Girl was now bursting with confidence.

What the hell were those two idiots Thousand-Pinweed and Yumo doing?

"Stop running, Jiang Si. In this world, if Shion wants you dead, no one can save you." Iris placed her hands behind her back, carrying a bit of the aloofness of a transcendent expert. "Only I, Shion's rival, the Magical Girl who can stand toe-to-toe with her, can protect you. I'll make Shion give me face and let you go. Come with me..."

Before Iris could finish her sentence, she saw a familiar figure riding a tractor putt-putting over.

She turned to look and found it was her good friend, Qingluan.

Currently waving anxiously at her:

"Be careful! Iris! Jiang Si is Simo Tu! Simo Tu is Shion's boyfriend! Shion's girlfriend is Simo Tu! That Simo Tu who fought with us at the entrance to the Heart Image Remnant!"

Iris was stunned.

What! Such big news and you're only telling me now!

My rival actually likes this kind of boy I dumped?!

I really am more charming, after all...

Her mind only had time to react to this information. By the time she realized who the name Simo Tu referred to.

An arm had already emerged from her chest!

She turned with difficulty, her gaze shaking, looking at the coldly smiling youth.

"You and I hit it off immediately, we can be considered bosom buddies who share our hearts and lungs. As we part, good brother, let me see you off."

A pair of dragon wings spread open behind Jiang Si, fanning wildly.

The fierce wind blew over Iris's body, and her Magical Outfit gradually dissipated.

Immortal Dao Killing Move! Send-off Wind!

Casually tossing Iris aside, Qingluan hurriedly caught her friend. Looking at Iris who had exited her transformation, there didn't seem to be any injuries on her body.

"Are you okay? Did the Send-off Wind cause any problems?"

"A bit of a problem."

Qingluan's heart jumped. "What problem?"

Iris touched her own body. "Too cold. Might catch a cold."

Qingluan directly threw her friend out, making Iris land face-first on the ground.

Mochi had been chasing after them on her tractor the whole way, originally filled with a bellyful of fire. Thinking about her building being smashed by the youth before her, she couldn't help but shout, "Hey!"

Jiang Si lowered his head and gave her a cold look.

Mochi immediately shrank her head and hid behind Qingying. "I, I was shouting for Senior Qingying..."

She was just a Magical Girl in civil engineering; she'd never really fought before...

Qingying felt a bit speechless, knocked Mochi on the head, and was still thinking about how to explain when,

Thousand-Pinweed and Yumo from earlier flew over again.

"Don't even think about escaping! Jiang Si!"

Even more puppets emerged from all directions, the lowest being at the Seedling Peak level.

Only two or three Alices remained around. Jiang Si pulled the two or three Alices behind him and walked to the front.

The Mirror Kingdom's assets would all be his in the future; better to damage less of them.

"Jiang Si!"

A puppet angrily scolded, "You secretly entered the Inner Sect! Stole and learned the 'Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record'! Violated the sect rules!"

"Do you admit your guilt!"

"Although our Sect Master stripped you of your tendons and skin, took away your Dragon-Blood Warrior bloodline, causing your bloodline concentration to be insufficient, making you unable to transform into the Golden Calamity Dragon King anymore, how could you commit such theft?" Qinghua's puppet angrily rebuked.

"Such a grave crime deserves, deserves granting you... a chance for redemption through merit," Yumo, as if mustering her courage for a long time, flushed red, but her eyes sparkled, looking a little excited. "For three lifetimes, be our true-transmission disciples'... sword, sword slave."

As these words came out, Thousand-Pinweed and all the puppets looked at Yumo.

When did Little Yumo become so bold? That's terrifying...

And the old world members fell into silence.

What? Simo Tu can't transform anymore?

Then why save him?

"Forget about Simo Tu..."

Some even planned to leave first. However, the next second, everyone quieted down.

They saw Jiang Si take out three Miracle Seeds.

Mochi recognized them first. "They're Beihai Disaster Control Bureau's Blooming Miracle Seeds!"

The puppets exclaimed even more, "They're our Sect Master Shion's genuine treasure Miracle Seeds! You heartless thief, heart-stealing scoundrel, black-hearted guest, sin-maker, fickle scoundrel, shameless wretch, despicable ghost..."

"All those were done by the previous life's Simo Tu. What does that have to do with me, Jiang Si?"

Jiang Si tilted his head, looking innocent.

That's right, Jiang Si himself had almost forgotten he still had these three Blooming Miracle Seeds.

Originally obtained from Silver Lotus's sister, Keke's benefactor, and from Twins, they were originally the Beihai Disaster Control Bureau's Blooming Miracle Seeds.

One of them even showed signs of reaching Full Bloom.

Now that all the power had merged into Dragon Lord Shion and couldn't be used casually, he took out these three last-resort Miracle Seeds to use.

"Although the Azure Cloud Sect's Sect Master shamelessly stripped away my Dragon-Blood Warrior bloodline, don't think I'm helpless."

A stream of mana continuously gathered behind him, slowly manifesting a phantom!

It was an illusory dragon shadow! Then it gradually transformed into a human shape! The dragon shadow warrior, transformed into a dharma appearance, walked in front of Jiang Si.

Its aura was terrifying!

"Dharma Appearance True Body! You actually learned even the strongest divine ability of the Azure Cloud Sect!" Thousand-Pinweed's pupils contracted as she said in a cracked voice.

Yumo, the puppets, and Jiang Si all glanced at her.

How come you memorized your lines so well?

But Jiang Si naturally welcomed all comers. "I know, secretly learning our sect's forbidden art is an unforgivable crime, intolerable by sect rules. But Jiang Si can swear to the heavens, swear to the heavens..."

Forgot the middle part. Anyway.

"Jiang Si has never forgotten his roots, not in the past, and never will in the future!"

The Dragon-Blood Warrior lifted Jiang Si and flew into the sky, simultaneously letting out a fierce roar towards the heavens! The enormous dragon roar brought an unstoppable sonic shockwave!

"That, that's the Azure Cloud Ancestor, Magical Girl Lin Lei! We cannot fight her head-on!"

Yumo immediately used wind to send Qingluan and the other two away. While withstanding the ancestor's innate divine ability, the Dragon's Roar, with Thousand-Pinweed, she heard Thousand-Pinweed whisper, "Since when is Ancestor Lin Lei a Magical Girl?"

"She, she can transform, and it boosts combat power. Isn't that a Magical Girl?"

"Makes sense..."

A group of puppets, however, smiled and rushed forward. "Such a move can't affect me, Super Qinghua!"

The puppets originally distributed in various places instantly formed an encirclement around Jiang Si and the others. But then, another flash of mana light appeared beside the dragon shadow warrior. A giant dharma appearance clad in black robes appeared, holding a black giant ruler almost as tall as itself, and swung it in a spinning slash at the surrounding puppets.

Flames like tidal waves instantly melted the blocking puppets, clearing a path to the sky!

"Flame Divide, Devouring Wave Ruler! Azure Cloud Ancestor, Magical Girl Flame Emperor!"

"Yan Di too?"

"Re, records say the Flame Emperor had delicate features, clear eyebrows and bright eyes, a gentle appearance, fair skin like a girl's, slender hands like a woman's, a straight and slender figure..."

But before she could finish, they saw the Flame Emperor in the sky dissipate, and another person clad in purple-black robes appeared, holding a thunderous scepter radiating with ten thousand rays of lightning, slowly manifesting, fully displaying the majesty of a hegemon!

With a slight stretch of his hand, a giant palm descended, knocking all the puppets to the ground.

"Magical Girl Martial Ancestor!"

"This counts too?"

"She, she has a Magic Wand!"

"That's enough!"

As soon as the words fell, another giant golden foot descended from the void!

Sweeping away everything around, the original forest instantly turned into a barren, flat land.

Qinghua's puppets could not rise again!

Everyone's eyelids twitched. Even Thousand-Pinweed and Yumo couldn't help but marvel.

As expected of the Sect Master. Even without transforming, she's so terrifying, summoning the power of the ancestors' Magical Girls beyond imagination!

The others were also shocked by Jiang Si's series of dharma appearances, all dumbfounded and speechless!

Amidst the large amount of dust raised, Jiang Si let out a wild laugh, bold and unrestrained.

Suddenly, they heard him chant:

"Ancient earthly immortals pass with the wind, the former three sects return to the Qing family! Who has no regrets under the sun? Return with renewed vigor to vie for supremacy! A straw raincoat, misty rain, let life take its course, defying heaven, walking alone, ever composed—"

Thousand-Pinweed immediately shouted, "Not good, he's going to recite poetry! Everyone, cover your ears!"

The phantom of the Dragon-Blood Warrior merged into his body. Dragon wings spread from Jiang Si's back, a line extending all the way to the distance!

"Today I spread my wings and depart for now, tomorrow ascending to immortality, roaring at the nine heavens!"

"Everyone, farewell for now! When I break through my realm, I'll come back to demand an explanation from you all!"

The dragon wings vibrated. A beam of light, swift as a startled swan, suddenly split the long sky. Jiang Si's main body instantly turned into an afterimage within the beam of light, his speed so fast it seemed to tear through space!

Immortal Technique, Ten Thousand Feet, One Line!

By the time everyone reacted, only a skyward afterimage and the remaining few Alices were left!

On the barren land outside Beihai, only scorched earth and scattered smoke and dust remained, a deathly silence!

Thousand-Pinweed and Yumo both let out long sighs of relief.

Finally sent him off!

This mission was really too difficult. Who would have thought it would be so troublesome with so many twists and turns.

Boss, please don't come back again...

"He left a line! Let's hurry and chase!"

But Iris below suddenly jumped up. "We can't let him go!"

"No need, no need!"

Thousand-Pinweed and Yumo were both startled. The two hurriedly stopped her. "That line is just a diversion! Actually, once he's gone, he's gone!"

Qingying also held down her friend. "Don't cause trouble. The Azure Cloud Sect has its own arrangements."

Iris immediately drooped her head. "Only a few days, and you're not siding with me anymore, your elbow pointing outward. Qingying, we're no longer the best friends in the world..."

"Don't be silly."

"I want cake, or I'll make a scene."

"At most one ice cream."

"Two."

"Deal."

Iris immediately hugged Qingying. "Hehe, I knew we were still the best friends in the world..."

Watching Qingying pacify Iris, Thousand-Pinweed and Yumo snorted coldly and quietly left with a bunch of puppets that had turned back into fluffies and the bewildered Alices.

On the way, looking from afar at the place where the Sect Master had departed.

Both of them revealed a smile.

With such perfect acting, the Sect Master will definitely praise me when she returns!

.......

Only after flying to a sufficiently safe place did Jiang Si stop.

Looking back, seeing no one was chasing anymore, he covered his chest and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Ten Thousand Feet, One Line, as an escape technique, required burning vital essence blood. Jiang Si naturally also forced out a mouthful of blood to pay the price for using Ten Thousand Feet, One Line.

To avoid damaging his own foundation.

Finding Thousand-Pinweed and Yumo was still too much of a stretch. Those two idiots couldn't act at all. If it weren't for Qinghua's god-tier question, this actor's play would have been hard to conclude.

Should have let Bai Mei come instead.

Need to have Twins and Susan give them lessons when I get back.

Acting skills are important.

Stepping onto a reef at sea, Jiang Si planned to rest a bit before going to find the Prince of the Mirror Kingdom.

But then he saw the sky before him slowly tear open.

A white, exquisite little boot stepped out from within, landing on the reef. Then, wearing a black, intricately patterned and magnificent long dress, wearing a Crown, with white hair and red eyes, the Prince slowly walked out from the crack.

The sea breeze blew through her hair, dancing in the wild wind. Her crimson pupils were like the last rays of sunset sinking below the horizon, warm, mellow.

As if carrying the sweet fragrance of fruit. When her gaze shifted, it seemed like afterglow spilled from her pupils, falling on Jiang Si's body, carrying a reassuring residual warmth.

"This place is very close to Beihai," Jiang Si said flatly. "Too dangerous."

As soon as the words left his mouth, the Prince quietly hugged him.

Her body temperature, like her gaze, was like dusk, possessing a heart-soothing warmth and softness.

Her fingers clasped tightly behind his back, as if wanting to grasp his heart.

"Welcome home, Jiang Si."

Like a lover's whisper, her breath traveled along his earlobe all the way into his ear canal, causing an itch.

Jiang Si took a deep breath, his body trembling slightly.

This posture.

To resist the urge to punch her.

It's really, too unbearable...

Full of openings!
