Star Iron, my clone is taking over Onpharos

"This guy actually wants to compete with me in enduring the longest time in the hot spring." Wan Di pointed at Bai E. "Since he said so, I will naturally accept. The word 'fear' does not exist in the dictionary of the Suspended Peak people."

Bai E smiled, which was taken as tacit agreement with his words.

The two then left.

"Feng Jin, you may need to prepare for the next treatment later," Bai Yuan said to Feng Jin as he watched Bai E walk away.

"really."

Feng Jin nodded in agreement.

Feng Jin felt that Bai E must be on the list of the most dangerous people in Onfaros, since he was competing with an immortal in dangerous activities.

At this moment, Tibo stood at the edge of the bath, touched the water with her little hands, and said to everyone with a smile, "Alright, the water temperature in the pool is just right. You can soak in the hot spring to relieve fatigue and heal your injuries. There are also medicines in it that are good for external injuries. Aya has been preparing this before you arrived, and the temperature is just right now."

"Soaking in a hot spring? That really sounds amazing!" Sai Fei'er rubbed her hands together, eager to get started. She quickly took off her high boots, revealing her full but shapely thighs and firm calves. Her long, fair feet touched the ground as she jumped directly into the bath.

"Mmm, this feels so good..."

Saifeier immersed herself in the bathtub and spoke to the others in an excited tone.

As she spoke, she waved.

Come on in and have some fun!

Chapter 44 Katniss Wants to Seize Power [Third Update]

"You're really not being polite." Bai Yuan couldn't help but complain as he looked at Sai Feier.

"It's okay, I'm thick-skinned, I don't care." Sai Fei'er said nonchalantly, even sticking her snow-white thighs out of the hot spring, her toes pointed, her arches forming a beautiful curve.

This tempting scene left Bai Yuan slightly stunned.

"Bai Yuan, let's go down too," Xia Die said softly, standing behind Bai Yuan.

Behind Bai Yuan, she pouted slightly, looking somewhat unhappy.

She was jealous.

"Ah... okay." Bai Yuan was gently pushed into the bath by Xia Die. He was only wearing shorts after being blown away, so there was no need to change his clothes. Xia Die pushed Bai Yuan into the water, while she stood by the edge and took off her stockings. In front of Bai Yuan, Xia Die was not shy at all, smiling as she took off her stockings to reveal her bare feet.

The skin exposed beneath the white silk of the butterfly was fair and smooth, with slender and long toes, like naturally carved jade. The arches of her feet were soft, her steps were light, and the skin on the soles of her feet was soft with a faint pink hue, like newly blooming petals.

Xia Die wasn't usually that shy, but looking into Bai Yuan's eyes, her cheeks flushed a light pink. She curled her toes and hurriedly stepped into the hot spring water.

Aglaia and Feng Jin then entered the hot spring pool. Aglaia's long, straight, mature legs and Feng Jin's bare legs, revealed after she removed her white stockings, were side by side, each possessing its own unique beauty. The two of them, along with Sai Fei'er, were careful to maintain a distance from Xia Die in the hot spring.

Tibao, Tian, ​​and Tinning didn't want to go down to the hot water, so they sat by the hot spring pool and played in the water.

Even if there's more to come, they should at least enjoy their leisure time now.

Bai Yuan stretched his body in the pool.

The hot spring water is really soothing.

Suddenly, he felt someone step on his foot.

Bai Yuan stared wide-eyed and saw Sai Feier on the other side of the pool with a wicked smile on her face.

Bai Yuan quickly pulled his leg back.

Sai Fei'er wanted to press her advantage. But just as she took a step forward, Xia Die stretched out her leg to protect Bai Yuan.

Faced with the lingering scent of death emanating from Xia Die, Sai Fei'er dared not move. She pulled her legs back, sat cross-legged, and looked at Xia Die with a defiant expression.

Xia Die said nothing, but silently protected Bai Yuan and looked at Sai Feier.

However, as they looked at each other, both Xia Die and Sai Fei'er felt their eyelids growing heavier and heavier. Gradually, they both leaned against the edge of the pool and fell asleep.

“Aya, your medicine really works!” Tibo said to Aglaia after seeing this.

“Of course, to charm a demigod, you can’t do it without spending some money.” Aglaia looked at Saifeier.

She would naturally pay for rescuing Xia Die and helping to resolve the Ohema crisis. However, she also needs to be held accountable for stealing Bai Yuan.

Aglaia produced golden threads that bound Serfie and lifted her out of the pool.

She had been shirking her responsibilities, and now that she had the chance, how could Aglaia let her leave so easily?

Bai Yuan and Feng Jin were unaffected. Feng Jin stared wide-eyed, somewhat at a loss.

Aglaia pointed at the unconscious Saifeier and asked Bai Yuan with a smile, "Do you want to take advantage of her being asleep and give her a couple of punches to get revenge?"

“Aya, don’t corrupt the children,” Tibo said to Aglaia from the side.

"Let's forget about it. Although she kidnapped me, she helped me later. The one who really caused this to happen was that senator named Katniss from the Senate." Bai Yuan shook his head.

“Yes, she is the mastermind behind everything. And her methods will only become more ruthless in the future.” Aglaia looked at Bai Yuan.

"Next, you and Xia Die will have to worry about her schemes."

"Don't worry, I will."

Bai Yuan nodded to indicate that he understood.

At the same time, he was thinking about how to solve this problem.

Knowing she has gained Nicardi's powers, Katniss's actions will only escalate. There's only one way to stop her.

We need to find a way to kill her.

Bai Yuan then picked up Xia Die and prepared to find a place to rest.

This time it was finally his turn to hug someone else, instead of someone else hugging him, and Bai Yuan felt a little excited.

Passing by Sai Feier, who was still fast asleep, Bai Yuan felt it would be too lenient of her to do nothing. Looking around, he noticed a cucumber on a plate.

"Cats are terrified of cucumbers, including Saifei'er, she seems to be a little afraid of cucumbers too. Let's put a cucumber out for her first and scare her a bit."

Bai Yuan stuffed the cucumber into Sai Fei'er's back before carrying Xia Die away.

……

In the Senate, Katniss received news of Bai Yuan and the others' return a little later.

"That Saifei actually delivered Bai Yuan to Aglaia and the others. Sure enough, the Golden Descendants are the Golden Descendants, and we can't be on their side."

She muttered to herself as she looked at the intelligence report.

Among the soldiers who went with Bai E were members of the Senate. Kaines was also fully aware of everything that had happened on Bai Yuan's side.

Upon reading the intelligence report, she felt an immense shock.

"A pitch-black humanoid monster appeared and devoured Nicardori. Nicardori's flame has disappeared without a trace. Also, the boy named Shiromoto, after being pierced by the Blade of Heavenly Punishment, also gained power from Nicardori."

Looking at Bai Yuan and the pitch-black monster, Katniss's desire grew even stronger.

It turns out that it's not just the Golden Clan who can obtain the power of the Titans; the others can too. If they obtain the secrets of the White Primal, these elders can also gain power from the Titans, thereby wielding power over Ohma and even Onpharos.

If that's the case, what's the point of keeping those Golden Descendants around?

Katniss is a woman with an insatiable thirst for power. She had tolerated Aglaia before because she had no other choice. Now that Aglaia has made a major mistake and she has found a way to replace the Golden Blood, her lust for power can no longer prevent her from being patient any longer.

“Aglaia, look at what you’ve accomplished with all that power? You’ve obtained no sparks other than yourself and Tirispius.”

She got up and walked towards the direction of Dawn Cloud Cliff.

She would inform all the other elders of what she knew here, and discuss convening a general assembly of all Ohma citizens to remove Aglaia from power, restrict the Golden Generation, and force Bai Yuan to reveal his secrets.

P.S.: The storyline about Sai Fei'er being afraid of cucumbers comes from a video of the Golden Hotel released by the official Honkai Impact 3rd team. It's just the official team making a joke, so take it as fact.

Chapter 45 Xia Die: Finally Cooked for Bai Yuan [Fourth Update]

"Lord Legus, what are your thoughts on convening the Citizens' Assembly?"

"I have no objection to this. Your handling of Ms. Aglaia's impeachment and other matters will be subject to the resolutions of the Citizens' Assembly."

"Okay, I'll go prepare."

When Katniss heard that Ragus did not object, the corners of her mouth turned up.

All the problems had to be solved; she didn't think she would fail in the Senate or the Citizens' Assembly.

"Ah."

Lai Gushi nodded slightly.

Katniss then left to prepare for her next move.

……

Xia Die slept for a while in the lounge next to the Hero's Bath before waking up. Bai Yuan lay beside her, curled up on his side, unconsciously rubbing his feet against Xia Die's calves in his sleep.

The butterfly's gentle movement woke Bai Yuan.

"Sister Xia Die, are you awake?"

Bai Yuan said, rubbing his sleepy eyes.

Because she had been sleeping with her head pressed down, her bangs were sticking out in a messy, upright fashion, with a few stray hairs standing up high and swaying back and forth with the movement of her hair. Her cheeks were rosy, and her eyes still had a moist mist from just waking up.

Xia Die couldn't help but reach out her hand.

Then she saw Bai Yuan tilting his head and looking at her with a puzzled expression, so she quickly adjusted the direction of her hand and placed it on top of his head to smooth his hair.

After tidying up, Bai Yuan was fully awake. Xia Die asked him, "How did I fall asleep?"

"It was probably Lady Aglaia who plotted against Saifeier..." Bai Yuan told Xia Die about how she and Saifeier had been tricked and drugged.

When Xia Die heard that Sai Feier had been captured by Aglaia, the corners of her mouth involuntarily turned up. Bai Yuan, seeing the upward curve of her lips, felt that Xia Die was about to burst out laughing.

"That's good. I hope Lady Saifei can calm down," Xia Die said, suppressing a laugh.

Bai Yuan smiled as well.

"Let's go home, Sister Xia Die. Although we rested at the hot spring for a while, I still want to go home and sleep."

“Home…” Xia Die’s movements froze for a moment, then she nodded vigorously.

"Let's go home."

Xia Die picked up her white pantyhose and put them on, then asked Aglaia to help Bai Yuan change into a new outfit. After the two of them finished getting ready, they left the Hero's Bath area.

As they descended from the Hero's Bath, before they even left the Cloud Stone Palace, they saw a group of people gathered around a pool. Bai Yuan and Xia Die walked over and saw Bai E lying on the edge of the pool, with Wan Di looking at him with disdain.

"Hmph, you still lost." Wan Di said, looking at Bai E.

"Lord Wan Di and Lord Bai E, the two of you have such a good relationship." Seeing this, Xia Die remained silent for a moment before finally managing to say this.

"..."

"Forget about this." Bai Yuan reached out and took Xia Die's hand.

Let’s go home first.

Xia Die glanced at Bai E and saw that he had only temporarily fainted from the heat and was not in any life-threatening danger, so she left with peace of mind. The two left the Cloud Stone Palace and walked for a while before returning to the Cloud Stone Market.

The residents were both surprised and delighted to see Bai Yuan return.

"Bai Yuan, you're back? Where have you been these past few days?"

"Yeah, we were all worried sick."

"Here, these are freshly picked fruits, have a taste."

Soon, a pile of fruits and vegetables appeared in Bai Yuan's arms.

Faced with everyone's enthusiasm, Bai Yuan quickly said, "I was kidnapped these past few days, but luckily Sister Xia Die rescued me. Dear uncles, aunts, and sisters, I'm doing very well now, there's no problem."

Everyone muttered angrily, "What kind of person is this? So wicked, he even kidnapped Shiro Genji."

Seeing that Bai Yuan and his group wanted to go home, some people quickly stopped the others.

"Alright, Xiaobai Yuan must be very tired after coming back from outside. Let's not disturb their rest."

"Okay, Xiaobai Yuan, go and rest first. Tell us about your experiences these past few days later."

"Yes, I'll tell you about what happened these past few days later."

It took Bai Yuan and Xia Die quite a while to get home.

Once inside the house, Bai Yuan put the fruits and vegetables in the kitchen, then looked at Xia Die and said, "Sister Xia Die, I'm going to bed."

"Um, Bai Yuan, are you very tired?" Xia Die looked at Bai Yuan and asked hesitantly.

Bai Yuan, sensing her intentions from her gaze, quickly said, "I took a nap in the Cloud Stone Palace, so I'm not that sleepy. Sister Xia Die, what are you planning to do?"

"Hmm..." Xia Die hesitated for a moment, then said to Bai Yuan, "Before going to sleep, you should eat something first. Let me make you some food."
