Our Generation’s Magical Girls Can Fight Back Too!

“I’m going to punish you! Punish you!”

Saying this, Luo You slapped Xingyu’s flabby flesh again, in the opposite direction.

This strike directly caused the stunned Xingyu to lose her balance, stumbling back a few steps.

Then, she finally snapped back to reality, angrily slapping back.

“Ooh-hoo~ Losing your temper already? This is just an appetizer; the whip is what’s coming next, you know.”

Luo You caught Xingyu’s swinging hand, locking it firmly in place, and her nimble tongue peeked out from between her lips, provocatively licking her fingertips.

“Nah~~ Magical girl big sis, don’t resist~ You must really want to relive our happy past times together, right? Pr~”

“Ku—— (Rage)”

Xingyu’s head instantly filled with blood.

What a joke!

You turned my sister into that state, ruined her life, and now you shamelessly say I want to relive past times with you?

“Even if you’re conceited, there should be a limit!” Xingyu roared, her whole body erupting in magical light.

“Mm-hmm~~ Big sis isn’t cooperating, is she?”

Luo You said with absolute certainty, “Don’t you understand yet? The gap between us is too vast, and after using your first-tier magic, your magical power consumption must be considerable, right?”

“Do you think that magic stopped developing during the time you were gone?! The current Top Ten are not the same as the old Top Ten!”

“No, then don’t tell me, wouldn’t I be on guard if you told me?”

“Herrera!!”

The shape of a triangular wing instantly appeared in Xingyu’s eyes.

Mind’s Manifestation Column—

From the distant reaches of the Sea of Realms, something seemed to respond to her call, and a massive beam of magical light blessed Xingyu’s body, enveloping her.

Her Mirror World reappeared, but its appearance had undergone a dramatic change. Countless mirrors unfolded in the air like an exquisite, gorgeous kaleidoscope, layer upon layer, twisting and turning, making one feel dizzy just by looking.

“Heh…”

Luo You narrowed her eyes slightly.

Interesting, what is that? Another manifestation of inherent magic?

“Xingyu!”

A distant, magic-infused call pulled the almost frantic Xingyu back from the brink of losing her mind.

Luo You instantly became like a startled cat, her eyes turning into vertical slits for hunting, and her hair color shifting to a flowing blood red.

That voice is—!

Something streaked across the surface of the Sea of Realms, leaving a long wake.

The newcomer was bathed in dreamy colors, with a phantom of the starry sky staining the space behind her, both ethereal and real, difficult to distinguish. With every movement, she exuded magical power far stronger than Xingyu’s.

Luo You’s lips curved into an uncontrollable smile.

Perfect, today I’ll use both of you to satisfy half a year’s worth of needs in one go!

On the other side.

“Xingyue!” Xingyu’s face lit up with joy.

“……” Xingyue surveyed the surroundings briefly, then frowned, “Xingyu, didn’t I tell you not to act alone?”

“Never mind that! Quick, block her retreat! Together, we’ll take down this witch!”

Xingyu shouted excitedly, but when her eyes met Xingyue’s unpredictable gaze, she flinched.

“Hey, isn’t it rude to leave me out here?”

The aura Luo You was exuding now was more than twice as terrifying as before.

Every shift of her gaze, every breath she exhaled, seemed to dominate this space.

This made Xingyu’s heart run cold.

If she could have barely countered before by finding flaws in the Three Lives, Ten Directions (三世十方) technique,

Now, she couldn’t find a single opportunity to exploit such a flaw in Herrera.

The flaws in Three Lives, Ten Directions still existed, but Herrera at this moment seemed to radiate an aura capable of stifling any opportunity for others to find those flaws in their infancy.

“Herrera, long time no see.” Xingyue greeted her calmly, a relaxed smile on her face.

“Is that so? I’ve been dying to see you… Xingyue.”

Xingyue stood in front of Xingyu. “I understand how you feel, but now, give up. I won’t let you lay a hand on her.”

“Oh? Do you think my target is only her?”

“It seems I’ve become your prey too, then.” Xingyue said this, yet not a trace of fear was visible.

This attitude made Luo You slightly wary.

The Crimson Authority granted her absolute rationality and an absolute perception of her surroundings. Soon, her attention focused on the back of Xingyue’s right hand.

The紋路 (pattern) on the back of her hand… what was it?

Luo You instinctively felt that thing was a bit dangerous, hidden but ready to unleash cataclysmic power once it showed its edge.

Xingyue held down the eager Xingyu and suggested, “Let’s call it a day, Herrera.”

“Do you think that’s possible?” Luo You retorted.

“I think it’s still possible.”

Hearing Xingyue suggesting to make peace, Xingyu became anxious.

“Xingyue, let’s take her down together, completely eliminating this great menace! If the two of us work together!”

Xingyue shook her head. “It’s no use, Xingyu. Even if we could, she could leave effortlessly.”

As long as Herrera’s bizarre speed wasn’t completely blocked, capturing her was impossible.

Just then, as Xingyue faced Luo You, her lips moved subtly, mouthing a brief but meaningful message.

Immediately, Xingyue swept her magic across the sea surface, and huge waves surged. When everything quieted down, they were already gone without a trace.

“Hmph~~” Luo You raised her eyebrows with interest.

Xingyue’s lip-read message just now translated to:

—Same time, same place again? An imperial duel… I’d be delighted if you could come.

“Same time… another week. Perfect, that’s enough preparation time!”

That humiliation seven years ago, this time, I will definitely get my revenge!

In an instant, Luo You felt her fingers fill with strength! Full of power!

A moment later, she remembered Qiao Mir from earlier.

“Why did that guy want to kill Xingyu too?”

She instinctively looked towards where Qiao Mir had been, intending to use hypnotic brainwashing to extract information, but…

Qiao Mir had already been obliterated in the azure impact.

“Miscalculation, I actually forgot to leave a living capture…”

The exposure of Three Lives, Ten Directions’ weakness had indeed made her a bit furious, causing her to momentarily forget to hold back.

“……”

Luo You looked into the distance again, towards the direction the Outsider organization had retreated.

After a moment of thought, her body rippled with light, and within a few breaths, she had swept across tens of thousands of meters. Upon spotting the flying vehicle carrying the Outsider organization members, she accurately landed on top of it.

Thud!

The people inside the flying vehicle stood up nervously.

All members of Unit Zero had participated in the siege against Herrera back then, so they naturally knew this person had betrayed the organization and assumed she was here to settle scores.

Luo You disregarded the fearful gazes of the others, simply searching for someone in the flying vehicle.

When her gaze landed on Zero, she revealed a faint smile.

Her arms opened in a welcoming embrace.

“Come here, Zero, let me pamper you properly again.”

Everyone looked at Zero, the person in question, in surprise. She was standing at the back of the crowd, clutching her left arm with her right hand, trembling slightly.

“You nobodies…”

Luo You’s voice rang out again, unsettling their hearts.

“If you don’t want to die, faint right now. Whatever method you use, if anyone is still awake in ten seconds, I’ll throw them down to feed the fish.”

“Huh!?”

Everyone except Zero exchanged bewildered glances.

“Three seconds have passed—.”

The surroundings immediately descended into chaos.

They all knew Herrera’s terror; she was truly the type of person who followed through on her threats.

Some slammed their heads against the ground, others tried to choke themselves, but these methods weren’t fast enough, so they unanimously chose to have teammates fiercely kick their descendants, aiming for the most intense pain to knock themselves unconscious.

Ten seconds later…

“Alright, no one is watching you now, Zero. What are you still hesitating for?”

Luo You slowly walked up to Zero—Zero’s height was clearly equal to Luo You’s, but in terms of aura, she was like a little chick, with Luo You in front of her like a big bad wolf.

“No choice…” Luo You opened her arms, pulling her into an embrace, her lips against Zero’s ear. “Bad children deserve a little punishment, don’t you agree?”

Zero’s slender body trembled, and she whispered, “Let… go!”

“Oh my, is little sister daring to refuse big sister’s affection?”

“You’re not…!” Zero forcefully pushed her away.

Luo You didn’t mind, pushing her against the wall, and said ominously, “It was I who personally brought you into the Outsider organization, and in the end, you turned around and ambushed me. It truly breaks my heart…”

Zero gritted her silver teeth.

“It was clearly you who suddenly left without a word, putting me in an awkward position at that time! How dare you now turn around and blame—.”

Luo You suddenly released her grip, her index finger lightly blocking Zero’s lips.

“Well, I understand you were forced, and I’m not really here to punish you this time, just to ask you a few things.”

Zero rubbed her slightly aching wrist. “I think you’re wasting your time.”

“Has anything happened recently in the organization?”

“No, and you don’t need to know, do you? Or are you back now?”

“You answer what I ask, don’t make me resort to brainwashing and hypnosis…”

Luo You playfully stroked her chin with her fingers, treating her like a little pet.

Zero angrily brushed her hand away. “Don’t put your hands on me!”

“…(smile)” Luo You stopped teasing her, glancing at the singularity core scattered to the side.

What kind of goods would make the Outsider organization bring out such a valuable item for trade?

The so-called trade item was a… head, in the shape of a ram?

Its material looked like wood carving, but it also seemed to be mixed with other substances.

“Forget it, I’m too lazy to care what you’re plotting. This time, Yue told me your situation was bad, so I came out to intimidate other forces. This way, your situation should improve a lot, right?”

Luo You took Zero’s hand, her slender, flexible fingers lightly gliding across her palm.

“I’m really leaving this time. Do you truly have nothing to ask your big sister for?”

Zero clenched her fists, her head bowed, her body trembling violently.

Just as Luo You was about to leave, she finally spoke her wish.

“Then… please… Big sister, please… again…”

“Mm-hmm~”

Luo You smiled disdainfully yet dotingly, slipping her hand inside Zero’s clothes…
