Honkai Impact 3rd, but I have too many mods.

"The biggest problem... or rather, the producer of the love potion, isn't it Dr. Ruan Mei?"

Jade is also very clear-headed. At first, there were Jackal and Mebius versions of Love Elixir circulating in the house, but now it's all Ruan Mei version of Love Elixir.

"Yes, but precisely because it came from her, the love potion circulating privately should still be the jackal version."

This is a legacy issue from history.

Back then... well, not that long ago.

In the beginning, the Elixir of Love was mainly used as a taming potion for assassins, and it was just placed openly in the ranch.

Anyone who wants can easily snatch a few from there.

...The opportunity for him to break the boundary with Huang Quan also came from here.

It can only be said that Liu Bai was indeed carefree back then, and had not yet realized how much trouble this "harmless medicine" would bring.

Jackal's potion was supplied until Liyue, where it was used as an energy booster for Liu Bai and as a means to quickly increase the affinity of captured assassins.

Yes, friendly assassins are friendly assassins, and favorability is favorability.

At the time... I didn't actually store it properly.

After all, Liu Bai's side hadn't become too powerful back then, and Ruan Mei was still a cool and aloof fairy...

"...But can this kind of confiscation operation really be carried out smoothly?"

Liu Bai thought for a moment, finding it difficult to give an evaluation.

Putting everything else aside, this matter inevitably involves the Yellow Springs.

Even if it's just for show... it's still necessary to do it to some extent.

Jade pondered for a moment and agreed with Mebius's statement.

Confiscation?

Redistribution!

I can guarantee that once this is done, the most commonly circulated jade will change from the Jackal version to the Ruan Mei version.

But... there's really nothing wrong with this, right?

Yes, Jade really thinks so.

Liu Bai's most irreplaceable function is its ability to unite people.

While other aspects are enough to make these accomplished experts in a particular field eager to try their luck, they can all be replaced.

The only aspect that cannot be replaced is cohesion.

However, a new problem arises regarding cohesion, which is a classic one: what should Liu Bai do when A and B have a bad relationship and Liu Bai is caught in the middle?

For example, asking whether you should choose your girlfriend or your mother is a stupid question.

But whether to choose a cold, aloof scientist girlfriend A or a gentle, all-around capable maid girlfriend B is a "philosophical question."

If this were posted on an online forum, people would probably choose option C – the blue pill.

I'll slap you through the internet cable. Choose, choose, choose, give it to me!

However, for Liu Bai, the choice was genuine.

Of course, Liu Bai is inclined to think, "You are all my wings."

But sometimes... the wings will fight.

Although there is no conflict between the aloof scientist girlfriend and the all-powerful maid girlfriend in the example.

But... well, if we're talking about Emerald as an example, there is actually one rather obvious contradiction on Liu Bai's side.

Gui Naifen and Huanlong.

Gui Naifen is just a nobody. Even though she has become much stronger, she is still a nobody compared to a top-tier powerhouse in the universe.

Therefore, Gui Naifen selectively ignored what happened back then—Huanlong, on the other hand, knew nothing about it.

But if you really let Gui Naifen have the strength of Feixiao... no, that is, the strength of Yueyu, Gui Naifen will really go and destroy Huanlong.

When you can't get revenge, you talk about positive energy and looking forward. But if you have the ability and the opportunity to get revenge, how can you not take revenge?

...Well, the main issue is that Gui Naifen and Huanlong's feud, though not direct, is indeed a deep-seated blood feud.

It's possible that Huanlong, or even any of the Great Lords of Annihilation, never explicitly ordered the destruction of Gui Naifen's hometown; it was just that the army happened to be passing by and crushed her.

But can we say that this has nothing to do with the Great King of Extinction?

Obviously not, right?

Can we say that the blame lies entirely with the perpetrators and not with the ringleader?

—Although the Great Lord of Extinction is not qualified to be called the "chief culprit".

What do you think Gui Naifen felt as she watched Liu Bai and Huanlong grow closer?

As for the others... they didn't have extremely sharp conflicts like Gui Naifen and Huanlong, but there were quite a few minor conflicts.

The Love Elixir may be absurd, but it's an excuse to temporarily "eliminate" hatred.

With this as an excuse, and with some effort, Liu Bai could actually resolve or suppress most of the conflicts.

Yes, some problems can only be suppressed because they are truly unsolvable.

Do you see anyone daring to speak out about the matter between Huanlong and Gui Naifen now?

Gui Naifen pretended that nothing had happened, and everyone else pretended that nothing had happened either.

This is even more serious than the treasure identification issue.

The issue of Shi Bao's identity is actually less serious the longer it's delayed. After all, Shi Bao Bear may be a bit of a troublemaker, but we can't deny that he's a smart kid.

Over time, you come to realize that things you don't want to accept can be gradually accepted.

Actually, if we talk about it privately now, the matter isn't as big as it was at the beginning. After all, Shi Bao can sense that these people really don't treat her like an outsider.

But they didn't treat her like a human being either.

— Right now, Shi Bao is unwilling to show her maid uniform to everyone.

"I think you should also consider how to handle certain conflicts."

"……Um."

Jade didn't say anything, but Liu Bai understood everything.

He also had a rough idea of ​​what was going on between Gui Naifen and Huanlong.

First, you need to summon your loved ones, your parents, and the Stonewall Knight.

Then...

"..."

Liu Bai waited for Huanlong in his mind to make a sound, but Huanlong remained silent as if it had not read Liu Bai's thoughts at all.

Well, even Huanlong finds it tricky.

Of course, Liu Bai wouldn't naively think that Huanlong felt any guilt.

This person only felt that Gui Naifen was difficult to deal with because of his own feelings.

However... this is indeed an opportunity.

Actually, if you take another step, this matter isn't so difficult.

From another perspective, Gui Naifen actually harbors equal hatred for the antimatter legion.

But as expected, Gui Naifen will never have the chance to take revenge in her lifetime.

Liu Bai has now given Gui Naifen a chance to take revenge.

two is……

Gui Naifen hates the Legion, so why doesn't Huanlong just switch sides?

Regardless of how flawed this matter is, just look at the scale of Gui Naifen's hometown. Apart from the "Legion" faction, this matter has almost nothing to do with Huanlong.

Other rulers might give such an order, but you, Huanlong... cough cough, Sister Huanlong would never use such violent means to invade a planet.

From this perspective, as long as Huanlong is willing to jump, not to mention Liu Bai, everyone else is willing to help Huanlong clear his name for the sake of family harmony, and Gui Naifen is likely to believe it as well.

Yes, it's also good that the modus operandi is traceable, so everyone can make their own arguments based on evidence.

Incidentally... someone with a broad perspective like Feixiao Jade would definitely not mind taking the opportunity to solidify this matter and force Huanlong to actually switch jobs.

"...You bastard, don't think saying these things will work."

Huanlong couldn't hold back any longer.

This person's thoughts are becoming increasingly unrestrained.

You want me to switch jobs?

You think I'm some low-level fry from the Annihilation Gang, a nobody Nanuk wouldn't even glance at?

I submitted my resignation this morning, and this afternoon...

Okay, it won't even be until the afternoon, it'll be gone on the spot.

"But Gui Naifen's matter... really has nothing to do with me."

Huanlong also has legion troops, but he uses them differently from others.

The army under her command was not as efficient at invading as she was personally—her legions could not invade thousands of planets at the same time, but she could.

These troops were there to clean up the mess for her.

If she were to destroy Gui Naifen's hometown, the Duke of Huguo would surely go berserk, killing his wife and children, committing regicide and rebellion, and heroes from all over the land would rise up to punish the traitor and vie for control of the world.

Only after self-destruction to the point where one in ten or even one in a hundred remains, and civilization enters the Dark Ages, will she allow her legions to enter the fray or casually incite a space pirate to carry out the final cleanup.

"Anyway, don't drag me into this."

If you ask whether Huanlong wants to change jobs, she does.

But... I can't say it outright.

Unless Liu Bai says, "Come on, Huanlong, switch jobs. I swear on my honor that Cripper and the company will protect you," Huanlong will not be willing to consider it.

"We're here. You should take care of your backyard problem first."

After saying that, Huanlong continued to linger in Liu Bai's mind.

Liu Bai didn't care, and he didn't expect to convince Huanlong so easily.

...But isn't it a bit too quiet behind the door now?

Liu Bai and the other two stood at the door, but they couldn't hear any sound from inside.

Wait a minute, shouldn't we be having a free-for-all brawl right now?

Or is it already over?

dong dong.

Liu Bai knocked on the door with feigned politeness, not expecting anyone to answer him at all.

but……

"...Please come in."

Ruan Mei's voice came from inside.

But... the sound was muffled.

An indescribable strangeness.

Liu Bai pushed open the door in confusion.

Between them, Ruan Mei, Hei Ta, and Aista, plus a Hei Ta doll, the four of them sat obediently around the table.

Apart from the puppet, the other three were covered in sweat, their faces were ashen, and they looked like they didn't dare to move at all.

"...?"

I want to see women fight... cough cough.

No, I shouldn't feel sorry for myself. I should be happy about this situation.
