Before Kiana could speak, March 7th and Fu Xuan's voices arrived simultaneously.
"Kiana, hurry up and tell us, who do you choose!"
Facing this life-or-death choice between two, Kiana made her decision.
"Stop arguing, you're both my wings!"
But clearly, neither of them got the reference and they still waited for Kiana to make her choice.
"I want both!"
After Kiana finished speaking, she exerted a sudden force, pulled her arm free, and then pulled both March 7th and Fu Xuan into her embrace.
The onlookers couldn't help but gasp in surprise.
Kiana even heard someone in the crowd whisper, "So you can do it this way too, I've learned, I've learned."
But Kiana just wanted to say to that person.
"Don't learn from me, I can handle it, but you can't!"
Fortunately, the "pink-cut-black" scenario where March 7th and Fu Xuan collectively blacken and pull out cleavers to turn Kiana into Kiana did not happen.
March 7th didn't even struggle, and seemed to be enjoying it.
She nestled into Kiana's "second development" chest like a little bird.
Fu Xuan, feeling the softness against her cheek and the faint fragrance, was about to be captivated when she heard the surrounding discussions.
Unlike March 7th, if March 7th was embarrassed, she could just switch planets and start a new trailblazing journey, but Fu Xuan couldn't.
Fu Xuan, with sheer willpower, wriggled out of Kiana's embrace.
Her face was still flushed from the earlier argument.
This was captured by quite a few people with ulterior motives.
"Good, I'll remember what you said."
Fu Xuan said, then turned to leave.
But before she left, she couldn't resist.
She said to Qing Que, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, "I have important matters to attend to. Qing Que, please take good care of these guests who have traveled far, and also my Kiana."
The words "my Kiana" were spoken with great emphasis, her tone drawn out.
"Huh? Does this count as staking a claim?"
Chapter 86: What do you mean by guests, these are my people!
"Alright, since the Supreme Diviner has said so, everyone, please follow me."
Qing Que lost the mood to continue playing cards, and no one in the card house was playing cards today either; they were all discussing what had just happened.
On the way, Qing Que looked back at March 7th, who was being extremely disobedient and touching Kiana, and couldn't help but grumble in her heart.
"Supreme Diviner, you were supposed to take them to the Divination Department, why didn't you just take them there yourself? Why make me lead the way?"
Complaints aside, since there was no one to play cards with now, Qing Que decided to do her job.
Once the heat of this incident died down, she would chat with people and play cards.
By the time they reached the Star Skiff anchorage in Changle Tian and saw Jianmu, Qing Que had already taken on the role of a tour guide, explaining Jianmu's history to them.
Kiana then remembered why the number of people in their group felt off.
Qing Que, herself, March 7th, Stelle, Ouyang.
There were five, that was correct.
No, that wasn't right!
Kiana finally realized why something felt wrong. Where was Tingyun?
"Oh right, where's Tingyun?"
"Waaah, Kiana, as soon as you're back, you're asking about other women."
March 7th's words left Kiana speechless for a moment.
Fortunately, March 7th wasn't truly jealous of Tingyun.
Seeing Kiana's expression, March 7th burst out laughing.
The gloom from Fu Xuan and herself fighting over Kiana had completely vanished.
"I'm not joking," Tingyun is sick. She went to see a doctor early this morning. She said for us to go ahead, and she'll catch up later."
Taking a Star Skiff, they arrived at the Divination Department.
They didn't even need Qing Que to lead the way; Kiana knew the place well enough to guide them to their destination.
But Qing Que, looking at the group behind her, couldn't help but remind them.
"Let me give you a heads-up, don't run around once we get inside."
"Although you are guests of the Divination Department..."
At this point, Qing Que fell silent.
Kiana was one thing, but "guests"? If she hadn't reverted to her original form, she might have become the second-in-command of the Divination Department after a while.
What guest? She's practically family!
As for March 7th, she was just competing for someone with the Supreme Diviner moments ago. She's probably already been noted down.
"But she herself hates people who don't follow rules and ask too many questions... Whatever you do, don't rub her the wrong way."
Qing Que added inwardly.
"Kiana excluded, of course."
Perhaps Fu Xuan might even be happy if Kiana asked questions.
They walked forward along the path they had traveled for several days.
While it couldn't be called nostalgia, her body had recovered and her perspective had changed, making her mood entirely different.
It gave Kiana the illusion of going away to study and returning home in glory.
"Huh... That's weird..."
But Qing Que looked at the closed door before her and, for some reason, found herself being shut out.
"Let me guess, did the door suddenly break?"
March 7th's voice held a playful tone as she looked at Qing Que, as if seeing a kindred spirit.
After all, thanks to her actions, countless doors had been locked, broken, and rendered impossible to open.
"I don't get it, the door is locked. It's never been locked before... and no one told me to bring a key..."
After knocking for a long time with no response, Qing Que shouted in exasperation.
"Hey, hey! Even if the cafeteria food is bad, you can't serve guests a closed door!"
But even so, there was still no response.
"Are you really from the Divination Department?"
Looking at Qing Que frantically banging on the door, March 7th couldn't help but retort.
"Is there a possibility you've been fired?"
"N-no way, that's too much."
When she turned around, Qing Que fell silent upon seeing a set of keys appear in Kiana's hand.
"Try these, Fu Xuan prepared them for me a few days ago. Let's see if they open it."
Qing Que, a Diviner, part-time librarian, and "head of the department," didn't have a key.
Yet Kiana had received keys before officially joining, and judging by the quantity, they might be keys to nearly every door in the Divination Department.
Even Qing Que, who was usually indifferent to work, felt a surge of unbalanced resentment at that moment.
Seeing Qing Que pouting, Kiana was about to comfort her when she heard Qing Que say...
"Honestly, why didn't they lock the door before? Then I could have legitimately skipped work!"
Good grief.
That's just like you!
Haven't changed a bit, have you?
As it turned out, the door here could indeed be opened.
But as the large door opened, they were not greeted by the welcoming embrace of the Divination Department, but by a group of enemies.
Or rather, they should be called Medicine King's Secret Pill Masters.
"Are you surprised? I'm not surprised at all."
March 7th's tone was calm, and she waved her hand with a helpless expression. She was no longer surprised by the situation.
After all, in every single Trailblaze journey, whenever a door was broken, they would inevitably find a hidden secret passage, and after going through the secret passage, they would always encounter enemies.
"I'm used to it, I'm really used to it."
"Next time, can we have a more creative encounter?"
Ouyang's muscles had developed a kind of muscle memory due to Kiana's presence.
When he heard someone making such a declaration, he immediately took out tape and moved to cover the source of the sound.
Seeing that it wasn't Kiana, the jinx, who was being "silenced," but March 7th, Ouyang pretended nothing had happened and took the lead, clearing out the enemies blocking their path.
March 7th was so stunned by Ouyang's move that she didn't even have a chance to take out her bow.
"Uncle Yang, did you bring that special solution to remove the tape? I'll die if I can't speak for an hour!"
Looking at the text March 7th typed on her phone.
Uncle Yang couldn't help but turn his head away, not wanting to meet March 7th's gaze.
Only after he turned around did he say, "Kiana has never used it before, so I didn't even consider bringing her."
March 7th looked at Kiana and Stelle.
But it was clear neither of them brought it either.
"Ah, it's a good thing Kiana's abilities are useful. If I had to stay silent for an hour, I really would have suffocated!"
"Uncle Yang! Why did you stick so close to me!"
"Sorry."
When the group arrived at the Qiong Guan Array.
They saw Fu Xuan communicating with a projection of Jing Yuan Yuan.
"Qing Que, you're here just in time."
Hearing Fu Xuan say this, Qing Que instinctively felt something bad was about to happen and tried to run, but Kiana, standing beside her, grabbed her by the scruff of her neck, preventing her from leaving.
"Kiana, you're setting me up!"
Seeing that she couldn't escape, Qing Que could only resign herself to completing the task Fu Xuan assigned: restarting the core of the Qiong Guan Array.
With the current shortage of personnel, the Express crew members were also forced to join in.
Except for Kiana...
"Kiana, you stay here and don't leave. I will show you today what the Qiong Guan Array is, and it will also be convenient for your future work."
Chapter 87 Stelle: "Mom!"
"Do we really need such a big production? I said I would cooperate with you."
Kafka was escorted here by the Cloud-to-Guard, looking at the large number of people gathered.
Even with Elio's script, she couldn't help but be a little surprised.
