"I see, I have no more questions."
"Whew! Finally done with the questions." Mo Ying wiped non-existent sweat.
"Yes."
"I get it. Well, I have to admit your questions are far more than those of Feng Yi combined."
"Eh, he must have known you for a long time then."
"A long time indeed, but Feng Yi isn't very curious. That's why, when he awoke, I chose to strip him of curiosity—other than that, most of the exchanges between Feng Yi and me are intelligence exchanges, not Q&A. Some of your barrage of questions even I can't accurately answer; I can only convey the situation I understand to you."
"Alright, what cost do I have to pay?"
"As per the previous agreement, things that don't go against your principles... let me see now..."
Could emotions be refreshed too? Kexiao, standing aside, felt inexplicably odd, suddenly feeling his body become a bit heavy.
"It's done."
"Finished?"
"Yes, according to the rule of equivalent exchange, this should be the least costly balance for you."
"The least cost..." Kexiao's eyes blinked slightly. With his keen senses, he could naturally sense that he had lost something, yet nothing seemed to be missing.
"Are you certain that's enough?"
"Yes—Feng Yi, you can come in now."
Upon hearing, Kexiao remained standing in place, carefully sensing the fluctuations in his emotions. Indeed, he felt no change in his emotions, still yearning for an idyllic life, his mind as calm as always.
Waiting felt long indeed, meanwhile, Feng Yi and Sky Shadow pushed open the door and walked into the room...
"All questioned?" Feng Yi spoke.
"Yes," Allen replied.
Feng Yi glanced at Kexiao, then at Mo Ying, and shifted his gaze, seemingly searching for something...
"What are you looking for?"
"Looking for Kexiao. Mo Ying, did you make him disappear?"
"Looking for Kexiao." Kexiao was startled, "Feng Yi, I'm standing right next to you."
"Huh!?"
Even Sky Shadow and Feng Yi were taken aback by this self-introduction.
"You! You say you're Kexiao...?" Feng Yi incredulously asked, pointing to the beautiful girl in front of him.
At this point, even if Kexiao were somewhat dull, he'd realize something unusual had occurred, let alone someone as sharp as him. He thought of emotional changes and memory alteration but didn't expect his body to transform.
Upon hearing this, Kexiao's cold gaze changed sharply and, in one swift step, he reached the mirror...
Blinking, he looked at the slender fingers, unable to comprehend that this person could be himself... Almost instinctively, Kexiao touched his lower body. Without needing to touch, in the next moment, Kexiao's eyebrows knitted tightly.
"I..."
For a moment, he had a thousand words to say but swallowed them down, his sharp eyes spitefully glancing towards Allen, which inexplicably made him feel like crying without tears!
"You did this." After averting his gaze, Kexiao closed his eyes deeply, striving to make his voice sound calm.
"Yes, given the number of questions, deleting them equivalently would turn you into a near-infantile idiot, so I transformed your body with an yin-yang switch."
"Whew!" With a deep sigh, Kexiao opened his eyes and then closed them again, "I'd rather become an idiot." His voice was nearly inaudible, imbued with an indescribable depth of feeling.
Feng Yi entirely forgot what he was about to say, utterly stunned by Kexiao's transformation, unable to believe everything he saw before him.
"Hey, Kexiao, are you alright?"
The female version of Kexiao turned half her gloomy face, saying, "The current me can't be described as 'alright', right?"
"Indeed... indeed... I told you before..." Feng Yi wanted to say something about pacing oneself, clearly aware that Kexiao must have asked a multitude of questions leading to this outcome.
But are you really okay with changing your interests and curiosities, which can be rebuilt, when your body turns into a girl's? How do you change that?
"Hey, old chap, did you really have to turn him into a girl?"
"Balance exceeds all. According to one's principles, this is the least costly equilibrium—Kexiao once said, if he were to marry someone, it would be Roland or you. Based on the feedback from this rule, I roughly confirmed that Kexiao wouldn't overly mind a change in his body."
Feng Yi and Sky Shadow were stunned once more; indeed, Mo Ying could penetrate one's past through unique means. It should have been something spoken offhand. Because Kexiao leaves the impression of not caring much about anything, there's little that piques his interest, but you can't just crush him with a single blow...
"Can I change back?"
"Not for the time being, through material equivalent transformation, your future self can change back."
"Isn't that your ability?"
"No, you could regard my existence as a medium for material energy conversion."
"If I keep asking questions, what will happen?"
"You might turn into a middle-aged woman or a toothless old lady—time, experience, memory, and ability, any belonging to you can undergo multi-dimensional material conversion. Considering balance, the female physique, in fact, doesn't make you lose anything."
Looking down at his slender hand, Kexiao said, "Isn't this your twisted taste?"
"Huh? Are you talking about the manicure?"
"Yes."
"I'm not that bored. Based on the final balance derived from most human females, besides this body, your attire has changed accordingly—you can perceive your current body as the female genetic you, and view your current attire as the material balanced transformation. Of course, you can also buy a set of clean clothes—apart from this, your strength is vastly inferior to before, barely at a First-Order level, because your nerves and cells have undergone balanced transformation. But this should be enough for self-preservation."
"Is my power gone as well...?"
"Your body won't lose any vitality. Simply put, the modified cells still lie dormant in you. Once you revert to your male body, as long as your memory remains, your power can return, along with the awakening of female body cells, potentially stronger than before."
"Oh..." Kexiao blinked his beautiful eyelashes, "It doesn't seem entirely bad, although I don't anticipate borrowing external power, but strictly speaking, if my physical body gets enhanced, isn't that not external aid?"
"Correct."
Feng Yi and Sky Shadow were dumbfounded again... Has this guy accepted it so quickly? Or is it that he genuinely doesn't care about his gender?
Kexiao turned around, revealing a nearly perfectly beautiful face. In truth, the male version of Kexiao was originally a handsome man, unlike Feng Yi; this beauty inclined towards the androgynous, but turning into a female seemed even better than before.
