"Ah?! I can't do that!"
Bai Heng shot up from the table, exclaiming in surprise.
Being appointed Dragon Lord just one day after resurrection—no matter how you look at it, this isn't right!
Not even novels are this... well, some novels might actually be written this way.
But this is reality!
"The organization has already decided."
Kiana walked over and sat next to Sirin, resting her arms on the table, fingers interlocked, half her face obscured by her hands, and spoke in a deep tone.
The same pose as Commander Ikari, Commander Qi's exclusive stance.
"I will assist in resolving the issue of the Vidyadhara Dragon Master."
Jingliu suddenly spoke.
She had long since defected from the Xianzhou, and even if her hands were now stained with the blood of the Vidyadhara, it wouldn't affect the Alliance Covenant.
At most, the Vidyadhara would just hold a grudge against her.
But she was not afraid.
"Marshal Hua and I will handle everything. There's no need for you to do anything extra, Miss Jingliu."
"In that case, very well..."
Jingliu nodded, not questioning Kiana's methods.
Although she couldn't sense Kiana's aura, that unknown feeling was no less oppressive than the gaze of an Aeon.
Kiana's growth potential was unheard of, past or present.
"Then what about my opinion? Even so, I don't want to be tied down to that position."
Bai Heng's ears drooped softly on top of her head, and she didn't look to be in a very good mood.
She wanted a little freedom, to roam the vast Star Sea and Trailblaze the unknown!
"Just a title and a little spare time for management is fine. It won't restrict your freedom. Besides, how can the Dragon Lord titled 'Lord of Leisure' not be a little free?"
Kiana waved her hand.
She wouldn't restrict Bai Heng from going out and traveling.
Moreover, the Valhalla contract was still active. If Bai Heng wanted to return while traveling, she could appear beside Kiana entirely through the Throne of Heroes.
"Lord of Leisure? Leisure...! That sounds great!"
Hearing the title Lord of Leisure, Bai Heng's attitude immediately changed, and she spoke with shining eyes.
This leisure perfectly matched her desires.
Since that was the case, and Kiana and the Marshal would handle her identity with the Vidyadhara, then agreeing to be the Dragon Lord was acceptable.
But... "Let me say this first, my strength isn't that great. I might not be worthy of the Dragon Lord title."
"You... know nothing about your own power..."
Kiana and Jingliu looked at the seemingly frail Bai Heng with complex expressions.
Cecilia looked at the girl with dragon horns and a dragon tail with some curiosity.
She could feel that the power within this girl was not weak.
"The power you had when you threw the Xianzhou into chaos has now completely become controllable power within yourself. It's no longer considered weak."
Kiana shook her head, spread her hands, and spoke helplessly.
Despite saying that, Kiana still wrapped her Divine Breath into a silver-shining sphere of light and sent it into Bai Heng's body.
"Cultivating your own Breath of God using this aura, you will never grow weaker. With your current potential, the level of an Aeon is within reach."
"Such a sacred, pure, and powerful aura...!"
After merging with the Breath of God, Bai Heng, who had just touched the edge of cultivating the Breath of God, was stunned and spoke with a shocked tone.
In Jingliu's perception, Bai Heng's aura, which was originally as clear as a flickering candle in the midnight, gradually became hazy and difficult to probe.
Thus, deep curiosity arose in Jingliu's eyes, which were as clear and cold as a deep pool, and she immediately looked toward Kiana.
Feeling Jingliu's gaze, Kiana pinched her chin, pondered for a moment, and then took a deep breath, as if she had made a decision.
"Jingliu, I hope you use this power wisely, but I also hope you don't use this power to commit wrongdoing in the future."
Moreover, this power of hers would, without fail, completely suppress the hidden danger of the Demonic Yin Body condition.
From then on, Jingliu's mind would be completely clear, no longer affected by the symptoms of hatred and rage.
At the same time, she also gave Jingliu a great path leading to godhood.
"My goal, from beginning to end, has only been one thing."
As she spoke, Jingliu's eyes turned cold, the aura of Destruction vaguely hovered around her body, her expression darkened, and she continued:
"That is to slay 'The Abundance.' For this, I am willing to pay any price."
Even though her old friend had been resurrected, her displaced hatred toward The Propagation would not disappear.
And for the sake of some unnecessary hidden dangers in the future, she would become even more resolute in this path.
Kiana did not try to dissuade her.
Yaoshi was not her friend, so she wasn't so saintly as to plead for mercy on their behalf.
Kiana nodded, and then likewise sent her divine power into Jingliu's body.
The moment the Breath of God was sent in, Warahip trembled slightly, and a gaze swept toward this location.
Kiana frowned slightly, shrouded Warahip with her own aura, and then looked up slightly through the ceiling at the figure condensing outside Warahip.
It was Nanook's phantom, not his main body.
"Hmph..."
Silver light flashed in Kiana's eyes, and a punch aura undetectable by the naked eye passed through layers of obstacles, directly hitting Nanook's phantom.
With just one punch, Nanook's phantom disintegrated into the most primal Imaginary Energy, dissipating into the cosmos.
"..."
Upon seeing this, Jingliu was stunned for a long time, too shocked to utter a single word.
She knew it was an Aeon descending when Nanook's gaze swept over, but she hadn't expected Kiana to resolve it so easily.
The strength of this young Xianzhou General, Kiana, had probably reached the level of an Aeon.
Perhaps she had even surpassed the Aeons.
Because Jingliu didn't have a concept of anything beyond an Aeon, but that didn't stop her from making bold conjectures.
Jingliu, who had already grasped the superficial aspects of the Divine Breath, sensed extreme Destruction from that punch aura.
Yet, Kiana's aura was currently restrained to the point where she seemed like an ordinary person.
This was the benefit of mastering the Breath of God.
Unlike before, she was no longer completely unable to detect Kiana's presence.
At least now she could sense that the other party was a truly existing individual.
After distributing the power to Bai Heng and Jingliu, Siegfried also walked over, looking on with the same curiosity as Cecilia.
They couldn't sense the Divine Breath at all, but that didn't stop them from knowing Kiana had just accomplished a great feat.
She had chased away the most authoritative existence in the cosmos, an Aeon.
And it was Nanook of Destruction!
"Hmm..."
Kiana pondered while looking at Siegfried and Cecilia.
Currently, the only ones in the family who hadn't received a version update buff were her parents.
She carefully sensed her parents' physical condition, then condensed two suitable portions of her Breath of God and gently sent them into their bodies.
Although Cecilia was an Eidolon, as an Eidolon of Kiana's Valhalla, her growth was not restricted.
In other words, one could still grow stronger after becoming an Eidolon, and the Throne of Heroes would continuously record and anchor the Eidolon's strongest state.
Even if they were scattered and returned to the Throne of Heroes, they would recondense into the anchored state after their growth.
Just as everyone achieved entry-level mastery of the Breath of God, Mei and Rita had already brought the food to the table.
After the family finished breakfast, Kiana hurried to the Taiyin Mansion to begin her arduous day of work.
As for Bai Heng and Jingliu, Kiana let them move freely. Until Marshal Hua gave notice, Bai Heng was temporarily not considered the Dragon Lord.
Bianca, Rita, and Mei went together to the Cloud Knights Training Base.
After the three arrived at their destination, they saw Li Sushang conducting routine drills for the Cloud Knights and Taiyin personnel.
