One soul, two twins, the other half is Bronya

"how could I know?"

Bai Ye said he didn't know, after all, he hadn't reached that stage yet. But... the name Bai Yin sounded vaguely familiar. Could it be what he was thinking?

. . .

After Xiao Lingcai introduced her sisters, she blinked and stared at Bai Ye for a long time, "Uncle Bai Ye, why don't you ask anything else? This is a rare opportunity to know the future~"

"Wouldn't it be boring if you knew everything? You have to understand that it is precisely because the future is "unknown" that people look forward to it more." Bai Ye rubbed Lingcai's little head and said gently.

Then, Mana and Usagi also appeared one after another and interacted with the girl from the future.

"Roar--!"

Not long after, the roar of a beast suddenly echoed through the school. A dragon-shaped monster spread its enormous wingspan, swooping down like a blanket covering the sky and the sun—its target was Akatsuki Kojo!

"Oh no, I was so engrossed in the conversation that I forgot about the important matter." At this time, Xiao Lingcai finally reacted.

"etc!"

She was about to attack, but suddenly stopped and looked at Bronya and Baiye beside her... Was there really any need for her to rush? They were both still there~

You have to know that the monster was able to travel through time and space to this era not because it was so powerful, but simply because it took advantage of the absence of those two.

"No, Lingcai-chan~"

However, when she looked over, Bronya smiled at her, "You can't let us do everything. Without going through hardships, how can your father grow into a qualified Fourth True Ancestor?"

"what?"

Xiao Lingcai blinked. Okay, I almost forgot. These two are both somewhat of a fun-loving type, so it's not surprising that they'd choose to just sit back and watch the show.

In that case, it was up to her, the "good daughter," to help her father. She said hello to Bronya and the others and jumped off the rooftop, "Sister Bronya, Uncle Bai Ye, I'm going to help."

367. Zero Vegetable Enhanced Edition

Time moves forward.

Since Bronya kidnapped Akatsuki Reina, Akatsuki Kojou of course couldn't find her. He walked around the school and found nothing, and finally stopped beside a small flower bed.

"what is going on?"

Xiao Gucheng sat down on a public bench on the roadside, scratched his head in annoyance, and felt at a loss.

"senior!"

Fortunately, at this time, Himeragi Yukina changed into the gymnastics uniform left by her daughter in the locker room and came over with Xuexia Wolf. "Senior, have you seen a girl who looks like me?"

"Himehira?"

He looked the other person's gym clothes up and down, and the tone... couldn't be wrong. Akatsuki Kojou told the other person what happened before, "So, Hime Hiiragi, do you have a twin sister or something?"

"No. Senior, you were deceived by her. That girl is simply a fake!"

Having just been beaten in the locker room, Himeragi Setsuna had a very bad impression of Akatsuki Reina and spoke in a rather aggressive tone.

"Um... Himehira, there's no need to be so serious, right? That kid was just pretending to be you and didn't do anything..." Akatsuki Kojou waved his hand at Himehira Setsuna, trying to mediate.

Unfortunately, Himeragi Yukina was already in a rage and couldn't hear what he was saying. "Don't say any more, Senior. I will take care of her."

That is to say, Akatsuki Reina is not here, otherwise Himeragi Setsuna would definitely show her Snow Wolf and start a war with the opponent directly!

!!!

Suddenly, a strange, frenzied magical power filled with bestiality and brutality spread out... A pitch-black demonic beast appeared, spreading its enormous wings and roaring.

"Roar--!"

For a moment, the atmosphere seemed to tremble.

Unlike the vertical pupils of dragons, this monster's eyes were scarlet, somewhat similar to those of a spider. A set of eyes moved and quickly fixed on Xiao Gucheng... Strictly speaking, it was his magic power.

"That won't do~"

Then, a dark purple barrier spread out, hiding the form of the monster—it was Nangong Nayue! This is a school, causing panic will be troublesome.

As for meeting the enemy? She's not the only magician in the school, so just leave that to Bronya. It won't take long. And then...

. . .

"That guy is watching the show again!"

After a long moment of silence, Nangong Nayue fanned her folding fan in frustration, already knowing the other party's plan. She glanced at the barrier beneath her feet and said, "It looks like it's going to last for a while."

At the same time, Akatsuki Kojou and Himehira Setsuna, who were inside the barrier, also had their first confrontation with the demon beast... or rather, the dragon beast.

"Senior, be careful!"

The sword witch's spiritual vision was fleeting, but it allowed Himeragi Yukina to see a certain fragment, and she was about to pounce on Akatsuki Kojou.

However, after special training (getting beaten), Akatsuki Kojou's combat awareness was not too bad, and he dodged the surprise attack with a backward jump.

A pitch-black dragon tail pierced through the space, and its sharp tail cone was exposed in the air, flashing with cold light... This thing looked very ferocious at first glance, but it was a pity that it didn't hit.

"Hey Ji Shu, don't underestimate me. I'm not that weak."

He successfully dodged the dragon beast's tail sting, and it happened that Himeragi Setsuna was right next to him. Akatsuki Kojou couldn't help but flex his biceps to show that he was actually very strong.

But it was with this movement that the slender dragon tail extended from the ripples in space and immediately wrapped around Akatsuki Kojou's arm.

Then, the tail arched like a snake, and the pointed part opened like a calyx, revealing the pink flesh and sharp teeth underneath.

"Oh no, this is bad!"

"Senior, you idiot!"

Fortunately, Himeragi Yukina was watching, wielding the silver-white Snow Wolf to chop at the tail, and then...

"Qiang——!"

The two collided, revealing a series of sparks of metal bursting out, but they didn't even cut through the other's skin, causing zero damage. This also made Himeragi Yukina's eyes widen, "How is this possible?"

At this time, without Himehira Setsuna to block it, the dragon beast's tail successfully bit Akatsuki Kojou's shoulder and began to drain his magic power.

"Ahhhh-"

As his blood and magic power were drained, Akatsuki Kojou let out a mournful howl. However, this action also triggered the beast within him, and a burst of golden lightning erupted, forcing the dragon beast to release Akatsuki Kojou.

After successfully escaping, Xiao Gucheng felt a sense of exhaustion, and the beasts in his body became slightly restless.

"senior!"

Himehira Setsuna rushed forward in time to support the other person and led him back to avoid the dragon beast's pursuit. Damn, what on earth is this? Even the lion's gold...

"Gun Gold!"

At this moment, a similar lightning bolt fell, striking the dragon beast's head. Of course, this couldn't completely break the dragon beast's magic resistance, but it did give Xiao Lingcai an opportunity to enter the battle.

"That's it, you bastard!"

Xiao Lingcai jumped down from a great height, the golden spear in his hand being exactly the same as the Xuexia Wolf's, pointing directly at the dragon beast's head.

"Qiang——!"

An invisible barrier appeared on the dragon beast's head, blocking Xiao Lingcai's spear. Immediately afterwards, lines of magic patterns spread out, climbing up the dragon beast's massive body, making it look even more terrifying.

The dragon beast swung its head, knocking Xiao Lingcai down. It bent its slender neck, its scarlet eyes fixed on the three people below...

It let out a high-pitched dragon roar, and numerous interconnected magic circles emerged from its pair of wings, shining with magical light.

!!!

"What the hell is this?!"

Seeing this, Akatsuki Kojou also realized that something was wrong and quickly pounced on Himeragi Yukina beside him. A series of magic patterns covered his right arm, "Come quickly, King Kong of the Divine Sheep!"

(Each time he was told he was "too weak", with the help of Himehira Setsuna and Sendoki Yuuma, Akatsuki Kojou awakened some of his familiars in advance.)

"Boom boom boom——!"

Countless magic bullets, like meteor showers, bombarded the crystal wall formed by the Divine Sheep's King Kong, and withstood this round of attacks.

"Not bad, Kojo-kun~"

Seeing that the two of them were fine, Xiao Lingcai breathed a sigh of relief, and then stepped forward alone with a gun... She placed one hand at her side and quickly drew several magic runes, forming a rune sequence.

——Under Bai Ye's influence, the future will naturally not be the same as before, and all aspects have been upgraded. For example, the magic pattern of the dragon beast, and the magic of Xiao Lingcai.

The next moment, Xiao Lingcai smeared a talisman with some kind of enhancement on the golden spear, and then leaped towards the dragon beast, the spear blade flashing a golden light in the air, "It's over, kill!"

"Zheng——"

The blade was extremely sharp, and it cut off the dragon beast's tail with just one strike. It continued to chop towards the opponent's slender neck with undiminished force, as if to put an end to everything.

Unfortunately... perhaps the boundary between life and death was too terrifying, and the dragon beast activated its instinct for survival, bursting out with magical power, barely repelling Xiao Lingcai, and then quickly shuttled away.

368. "Amber"

"Emmmm...ah?"

No, why didn't Sister Bronya and the others stop it? Seeing the dragon beast actually run away like this, Xiao Lingcai was a little confused for a moment, her delicate face was stunned, and she looked dazed.

When she came to her senses, she put away her gun and went to look for Bronya and Bai Ye.

"Wait! Do you know anything about that monster?"

Unfortunately, Akatsuki Lingna was slow and was stopped by Akatsuki Kojou from behind. Moreover, Himeragi Yukina blocked her in front with the Snow Wolf in her hand, staring at her with a wary look.

???

Hey, hey, hey, I'm your biological daughter! How can you not trust me? Xiao Lingcai secretly complained in her heart, but she didn't think about how she had "respected" the other party before.

Looking at her parents in front and behind her, Xiao Lingcai sighed helplessly and had to temporarily give up the idea of ​​looking for Bronya and Bai Ye. "Okay~ I'm going to chase that monster..."

"Can I listen too?"

The fluctuation of space was fleeting, and Nangong Nayue's figure appeared between the three people.

"That Yue-chan...it hurts!" x2

As expected of a father and daughter, even their reactions were the same. Then, "Na Yue-chan" as they called her greeted each of them with a folding fan, and they covered their foreheads in sync.

"I've said it so many times."

Nangong Nayue sighed tiredly and said the words she had repeated countless times: "Don't add the word 'jiang' after the teacher's name."

"Anyway, this little girl will be under my supervision from now on. No objections are allowed. Do you understand?"

. . .

In this incident, Himeragi Setsuna's Snow Wolf did not break into pieces, and she did not fall into a state of collapse, so she continued to follow up on the incident.

Nangong Nayue moved everyone to the office and sat down at her desk as usual. "Okay, why don't you introduce yourself, fake transfer student?"

"Hmm... I won't go into details about my specific name here. Just call me Lingcai, that's all."

"Wait! You haven't explained how you look like me..."

But obviously, this alone couldn't satisfy Himeragi Yukina. She still remembered the beating she'd received before! Besides... a person who looked almost exactly like her was indeed unsettling.

"Huh? I'm not a criminal. What's with that tone of voice?"

Sensing Himeragi Setsuna's questioning tone, Xiao Lingcai's face suddenly turned sour, and she turned stern and aggressive. They were clearly mother and daughter, but it seemed as if they were destined to clash.

"Um, you two..."

"you shut up!"

Akatsuki Kojou tried to mediate, but was only scolded, revealing his "younger brother" status in the family. Himeragi Setsuna and Akatsuki Reina continued to stare at each other, practically drawing their weapons.

"咚咚-"

Just then, a series of knocking sounds rang out. Nangong Nayue flexed her knuckles and knocked on the table, using her "teacher's authority" to stop the commotion. "You two...behave yourself!"

For the sake of Nangong Nayue's face, Xiao Lingcai finally suppressed her dissatisfaction, crossed her arms, snorted, and turned her head away.

Then there was Himeragi Setsuna. She seemed to want to say something, but when she saw Nangong Nayue looking at her, she could only let it go.

That's right~ What's all the fuss? Nangong Nayue glanced at everyone and nodded secretly, "Let's continue with the previous topic. Lingcai, how much do you know about the monster from before?"

"It's a man-made magical beast born from an experiment. It travels through time, distorts space, and devours dragon veins. It's powerful enough to devour the spiritual life of an entire land. It's the most powerful... extremely vicious strategic weapon."

Originally, Xiao Lingcai wanted to say the strongest, but suddenly remembered that Bronya and Bai Ye were still there - in front of those two, there was no such thing as "the strongest".

"However, if left unchecked, once the magical power supporting Genshin Island is completely devoured, the island will sink to the bottom of the sea. Yue-chan, you must pay attention to this aspect."
