Honkai Impact 3rd—

"And this one is an Abominations of Abundance... I didn't expect there to be a Disciples of Sanctus Medicus within the Vidyadhara."

In the classroom of St. Freya Academy, Qiyana lazily lay on the desk, twirling the pen in her hand boredly. "Do they really think Yaoshi will favor them?"

"Perhaps it's a 'desperate attempt in a crisis'?" Mei gently closed the notebook in her hand. "Actually, all these people are trying to find a way for the continuation of the Vidyadhara, they just use different methods."

"As for the bountiful star... If Yaoshi truly favors them, it might be possible to gain the ability to reproduce..."

"Hey, Mei, that idea of yours is very dangerous!" Qiyana suddenly sat up straight and leaned closer. "If the Cloud Knights hear that, you'll be identified as Disciples of Sanctus Medicus and arrested!"

"Alright, Qiyana..." Mei gently patted the girl's hand, looking at her serious little expression, and couldn't help but chuckle softly. "I haven't finished speaking yet."

"Although the Immortal Boat doesn't have a reproduction crisis like the Vidyadhara, they also face a threat to the survival of their civilization when dealing with the Abominations of Abundances. But the answer is completely different from that of the Abominations of Abundances."

"What answer?" Qiyana tilted her head curiously.

"The continuation of civilization and race should not rely on twisted favors, but on the moments when mortals choose to 'fight for each other' time and time again." Mei smiled faintly. "This is the answer jointly written by Yukong, Caiyi... and the Cloud Knights who fell on the battlefield."

【The three later encountered two illusions. One was a Vidyadhara soldier who fought alongside Dan Feng in the past, and the other was Bai Lu's former maid.】

【The former was furious at Dan Feng's betrayal, roaring for Dan Feng to hand over the Dragon Lord's power. Although Bai Lu knew that this was all a fragment of the past, she was still frightened by the biting hatred in the words of her Vidyadhara compatriot.】

【As for the other maid, she was arranged by the Preceptors to be by her side since childhood, responsible for her daily life and monitoring her, recording Bai Lu's dreams... But because she couldn't bear to do it, she had already been forcibly 'Metamorphosis' by the Preceptors.】

【After experiencing these two illusions, Star also noticed that Bai Lu was very dejected.】

【Further ahead is the exit of the Scalegorge Waterscape, where Huanxi had been waiting for a long time.】

【As the few were sighing about the dangers of the journey, Huanxi suddenly said, "I didn't expect those assassins to be so audacious, breaking into the sacred place and relentlessly pursuing everyone... Miss, don't worry, I will definitely report to the elders and catch them all."】

【As soon as these words were spoken, even Bai Lu noticed something was wrong. She secretly glanced at Dan Heng, who immediately understood and questioned, "Assassins? The three of us didn't mention that the danger was assassins, how did Miss Huanxi know?"】

【Huanxi immediately panicked and began to stammer an explanation, saying that they had already encountered an attack at the ferry crossing before, and she was afraid that everyone would suffer another misfortune.】

【Bai Lu quickly found another blind spot in her words and easily exposed Huanxi's claim. Seeing that the matter was exposed, she also knew that there was no need to continue the act.】

【"So, the elders sent you to eliminate the unqualified Dragon Lord?"】

【"Hmph, hmph, this matter is merely a suggestion of this concubine alone, how could it be the intention of the Preceptors?" The expression on Huanxi's face suddenly changed, and countless assassins appeared from beside the group, surrounding them tightly.】

【In her opinion, the Vidyadhara only needed one Dragon Lord, and the weak, useless, and usurping Bai Lu... was the one who needed to be eliminated!】

【With that, she waved her hand, signaling the assassins to quickly make their move.】

【"Everyone, I'm not late, am I?"】

【Just as the assassins revealed their weapons, Jing Yuan's lazy voice sounded at the right time from behind.】

【Bai Lu turned her head in surprise, "General! Did you bring us reinforcements?"】

【Jing Yuan chuckled, "Reinforcements? I am the reinforcements."】

Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba—

"Uh, did everyone notice... Huanxi is facing a lineup that has almost directly confronted Phantylia."

Mitsuri Kanroji suddenly felt a little sorry for this Miss Huanxi. If these assassins could defeat the General + Dragon Lord + Star, then perhaps she could lead this group of assassins to challenge Phantylia.

Two of the former Five Kasas of the Cloud are here; she simply couldn't imagine any scenario where Huanxi wins.

"Even without the General and Dan Heng, Star alone can deal with these guys."

Shinazugawa Sanemi sneered, "In the face of absolute strength, this girl's tricks are useless... These few can even withstand Phantylia's Starfall without falling, it would be a great success if these assassins could even scratch Star."

"I think Miss Huanxi hid her identity quite well, but she was just too impatient," Shinobu Kocho said. "She has also seen Dan Heng's skills, doesn't she know the gap between these assassins and the Dragon Lord?"

"She wanted to eliminate Bai Lu, but chose to do so when Dan Heng was accompanying her... This timing was simply too poor. Now that her identity is exposed, I'm afraid she will also be forcibly 'Metamorphosis' by the Preceptors."

"But if that's the case, then both of Miss Bai Lu's maids..."

Mitsuri Kanroji couldn't help but feel sad for little Bai Lu. As the Dragon Lord, the people she trusts are either forcibly 'Metamorphosis' or want to send her to 'Metamorphosis'... This position of Dragon Lord looks glorious, but in fact, it is incredibly lonely...

【With Jing Yuan and Dan Heng working together, these assassins were completely powerless to resist and were easily swept away.】

【Huanxi also fell to the ground injured, staring directly at Bai Lu standing behind Star, shaking her head regretfully, "What a pity... Heh heh, just a little bit more."】

【Jing Yuan looked down at her coldly, "Do the Preceptors really think no one knows about their little schemes? Wake up... Laying hands on the Dragon Maiden is only destroying the little prestige they have left."】

【"This whole matter was planned by me alone, please don't frame the General casually..." Even now, Huanxi was still speaking up for the Preceptors.】

【Facing the fate of receiving the Ten-Lords Commission's interrogation package, Huanxi stated that she would rather die than go there. After exhaling her last breath, she became motionless.】

【The matter finally settled, but there was no trace of joy on Bai Lu's young face. Although she knew that the Preceptors disliked her greatly, after realizing that they would stop at nothing to get rid of her, she became very depressed.】

【Although Jing Yuan offered to take her to the Seat of Divine Foresight, Bai Lu gently shook her head and refused. But in the end, she still wanted to talk to Dan Heng.】
