Chapter 432
"--You guys didn't even include me in the conversation about Xiao Bai calling me 'sister'!! That's outrageous!!!"
Xiao Bai:"?"
Hehe... I knew it...
The matter of Xiao Bai's true identity being exposed was put behind us after the decision was made on Xiao Bai's 'punishment'.
Although the Magical Girls were unaware of the truth before were shocked, they could understand why Fang Ming wanted to hide it.
In addition, Fang Ming in real life is indeed very well-behaved and has never used his Xiao Bai identity to do anything more intimate with the Magical Girls.
The hot spring trip in the Sky Screen caused the Magical Girls a little resentment, but after Fang Ming repeatedly emphasized that it was an 'original' storyline, the Magical Girls stopped worrying about it.
Besides, even if it did happen, it occurred within the Sky Screen.
In reality, Xiao Bai not only never saw the Magical Girls' bodies, but Xiao Bai was also stripped naked by Yu Muqiu...
From this perspective... it seems like the newbies are always the Xiao Bai.
So everyone stopped dwelling on it.
After imposing the "Sister Punishment" on Xiao Bai, everyone still gathered together as usual to watch the next three episodes.
"So, you've already awakened Shining 2, Luna has also awakened Shining Form?"
When Xiao Bai was held in Xiao Chun's arms, he looked up at Xiao Chun and asked her a question.
Upon hearing Xiao Bai's question, Xiao Chun didn't answer immediately. Instead, she smiled and said:
"Where's 'big sister'? Xiao Bai sister~~"
"Gulp..." Xiao Bai choked, but since Xiao Qiu had already decided on the punishment, Xiao Bai wouldn't go back on its word. So, after Xiao Chun reminded it, Xiao Bai helplessly called out to Xiao Chun:
"Sister Xiao Chun".
"Mmm~~~"
This call was like drinking an ice-cold cola on a hot summer day, making Xiao Chun feel refreshed all over.
After enjoying herself, Xiao Chun didn't forget to answer Xiao Bai's question.
She explained:
"Well, the Witch is quite capable. We can't distinguish between reality and illusion in the Mindscape Illusion she creates. So as long as we accumulate enough experience and meet the prerequisites for unlocking the Shining Form, we can successfully unlock the new form."
"That's just the process..."
Xiao Chun shuddered slightly. She instinctively hugged Xiao Bai, burying her face in Xiao Bai's hair, taking a deep breath before continuing, "... It was so agonizing. I... in that illusion, I saw you die... it happened so many times..."
"..."
No wonder you looked like you were having withdrawal symptoms when you came back.
Xiao Bai thought to himself, but he could also sense a hint of fear in Xiao Chun's tone.
Xiao Chun was trembling; clearly, the illusion was so real that she couldn't distinguish between reality and illusion.
Perhaps, some emotional trauma remains in Xiao Chun's heart.
After all, Xiao Chun liked Fang Ming so much.
Thinking of this, Xiao Bai no longer cared about morals. She raised her hand and gently stroked Xiao Chun's hair, saying in a sweet voice:
"It's alright, it's alright, Sister Xiao Chun, it's alright."
"Ah! Xiao Chun is too cunning!"
No sooner had Xiao Bai finished speaking than Yu Muqiu appeared beside them as if by teleportation, and said to Xiao Bai with a slightly aggrieved expression:
"I've been through so much too... Xiao Bai Sister, you can't favor one over the other, I also want Xiao Bai Sister's Healing patch~"
"... No, Xiao Qiu, your persona..."
"It's 'Sister Xiao Qiu '~~"
"Okay, okay... Sister Xiao Qiu, your character has changed quite a bit..."
"No, it's because you're Xiao Bai, and I've wanted to do this for a long time."
Yu Muqiu spoke earnestly, making no attempt to hide her thoughts, and stepped forward to hug Xiao Bai, trying to snatch Xiao Bai from Xiao Chun's arms.
But Xiao Chun held on tightly. "Xiao Qiu, I just got back. At least let me replenish my 'Xiao Bai Energy' before you take Xiao Bai away, okay?"
Xiao Bai:"...?"
So what exactly is this "Xiao Bai Energy" thing?
I was just using a metaphor when I mentioned withdrawal symptoms. You're not actually experiencing withdrawal symptoms, are you?
Xiao Chun Xiao Qiu are vying for Xiao Bai.
Meanwhile, Aurora and the other Magical Girls who were close to Xiao Bai were also watching this scene.
Xiao Bai, noticing their gazes, inwardly groaned.
Yes, apart from Chen Xiaoxia, all the Magical Girls here who can transform have undergone Lesos's special training.
It seems... Xiao Qiu and Xiao Chun aren't the only ones who need Xiao Bai's 'emotional Healing '...
Tsk, I feel like I've become a counselor/psychologist.
Xiao Bai sighed inwardly.
With the Healing of the psychologist Xiao Bai, the Magical Girls finally calmed down and began to enjoy the final three episodes of the third season.
Barring any unforeseen circumstances, the final three episodes of this third season should still be aired back-to-back.
What will become of Xiao Bai's future, and what will become of the Magical Girls? These three episodes will provide the answers.
The tenth episode begins with the opening theme, and as the saying goes, "If the opening theme is right in the protagonist's face, the protagonist is in danger." Clearly, this episode is the final battle between the Demonized Xiao Bai and Xiao Qiu.
While waiting for the opening sequence, Xiao Chun, who still holds the 'right to hug Xiao Bai,' talked to Xiao Bai about something else:
"By the way, after we finish watching the Sky Screen, Lesos wants to see you again."
"Hmm?" Xiao Bai was taken aback at first, then fell into deep thought. She vaguely guessed something and asked Xiao Chun:
"... Has she already made up her mind?"
"I don't know, but... judging from her expression, she seems to have made up her mind."
The 'decision' that Xiao Bai and Xiao Chun are referring to here is Lesos's decision to seal away the Demon King and the four Overlord Demons.
Lesos had been unable to make a decision before because the Magical Girls in reality were very different from those in the Sky Screen.
Lesos didn't want to gamble her future on women like them.
But right now, besides Stella, Xilisi who hasn't decided to become Magical Girls yet, and the four Magical Girls from the Eastern Ocean District...
Almost everyone has mastered the Shining Form.
The three little ones who were the first to unlock their Shining Form have also unlocked new forms.
This alone is enough to demonstrate their potential.
And that was indeed enough for Lesos to make up her mind.

Volume 4 <Magic Autumn> Theatrical Edition and Season 3: Chapter 465 I'm Back, Aren't You Welcome?
The sky was overcast.
A light Xiao Yu fell from the sky and landed on the earth.
The pink-clad Magical Girls, braving the rain, rushed towards the thick, dark clouds.
However, the pink Magical Girls stopped as soon as she reached the inside of the dark cloud.
"As expected, this is..."
Magic.
A very rich magic, held back but not released, a magic gathered only in the clouds.
The interior of these dark clouds that envelop the entire planet is probably formed by magic.
Yu Muqiu even sensed a power similar to Magic Barrier!
These dark clouds... are they Magic Barrier!?
"Yu Muqiu, how is it? Did you sense anything?"
Hearing Stella's call, Yu Muqiu took a deep breath, gazed into the deeper clouds, and said to Stella:
"That's right, this is indeed created by magic, and... it's different from how it looks from the outside; the magic inside these clouds is incredibly concentrated! Perhaps you're right, it really is..."
Pillar Rank.
Yu Muqiu did not say those words aloud.
She bit her lip, her expression very solemn, but within that solemnity lay much sorrow and self-reproach.
Since Pillar Rank Demon Society choose to seal off this entire world with magic, it means that Xiao Bai... Brother Fang Ming ultimately failed.
He failed to lure away the Pillar Rank Demons.
What exactly does Fang Ming's sacrifice mean...?
Yu Muqiu's nose tingled with emotion at the thought.
Tears welled up in her eyes, as if they might spill over at any moment, but the next second, Yu Muqiu sniffed, suppressing all her sorrow, and calmly said:
"Stella, go and inform Xiaoxia and Xiao Chun... no, just inform Xiaoxia, we're probably in for a tough battle."
"... good."
Hearing Yu Muqiu's reply, which seemed to be imitating someone else's words, Stella was silent for a moment before answering.
Then Stella fell silent.
A minute later, a blue light flew out from the city below and arrived beside Yu Muqiu.
(Is Xiao Qiu imitating Xiao Bai?)
(Probably so. The 'seniors' who sheltered them from the wind and rain are no longer here, so someone has to become that kind of 'senior'.)
(Growing up...)
(I don't want to watch anymore... I can't bear to see Xiao Qiu and Xiao Bai's expressions after they meet...)
(Originally a 'senior' who was protecting the world, she has become an enemy who wants to Destruction the world. I can't imagine how much of a blow this must have been to Xiao Qiu.)
(By the way... isn't Xiao Bai Fang Ming? Why are you still calling her Xiao Bai?)
(Xiao Bai is Xiao Bai, Fang Ming is Fang Ming. Even if they are the same person, their names before and after transformation are different!)
(Okay then...)
Sky Screen Autumn is growing very quickly.
She couldn't help but be happy, because, as the comments said, there was no one left to shield Sky Screen Autumn from the storm.
From now on, she will have to rely on herself for everything.
She had to grow up; she had no other choice.
After seeing Aurora off, Chen Xiaoxia, who was still training at home, came to Xiao Qiu's side.
Sensing the heavy magic within the clouds, Chen Xiaoxia's expression also became very serious:
"Xiao Qiu, what's going on here...?"
"Probably Pillar-Tier Demon ..." Yu Muqiu explained, then shook his head. "But I'm not entirely sure. Anyway... let's Magic Link first."
