As they traveled toward the [Nascent Spring World], the people in Feldur were confused. Velamir had arrived after five days intending to guide Yasenia as she asked for, but instead, he was met with an empty space where the house was located before. He was both confused and scared. What if the woman had left to plan his destruction? What if she was displeased?
This thought would follow him for a long time, becoming a recurrent nightmare and source of stress. Eventually, he would retreat to the countryside and live a relatively peaceful life.
But this was something for the future.
Remir and Blade were traveling on Yaseniaâs Skeletal Warship, their faces pale and numb. They didnât expect that Yasenia would dare to exterminate everyone except the two of them. Even Hala couldnât save herself.
Looking up to the side, Remir observed the tall and voluptuous dragon woman with fear in his heart. âYou-I mean, Lady Yasenia.â
Yasenia glanced down at him. The man had his feet and hands tied down with [Immortal Binding Ropes], unable to utilize a shred of his strength.
âSpeak.â
Remir opened and closed his mouth, eventually managing to utter some words. âIs Lady Yasenia truly expecting to make a deal with the Supreme Lord? Youâve killed his favorite grandchild! You must know that, while he doesnât involve himself, if the conflict happens between people of the Supreme Bloodline, if anyone outside of it touches us, then he will become angered to the extreme!â
Yasenia sneered with a hint of disdain. âSo, he rather lets his children kill each other than outsiders killing them. Oh, such a grand and exceptional moral character, I am in awe.â
Blade, at the side, snorted, less afraid compared to Remir. âYou clearly donât understand what it means to carry on a bloodline. Looking at your appearance, you probably have no descendants. How can you judge others without experiencing what they have?â
Yasenia whipped her tail, slapping the teeth out of his mouth. âProvoking me to force me to kill you will only result in torture. Regardless, I am a mother as well. Currently, I am in a special state of mind, but even now, I wouldnât allow such a thing to happen even at the cost of my everything.â Her gazeâs coldness carried weight as she clearly uttered. âMy family is my most precious treasure. Now, in the past, and far into the future, this notion wonât change. Regardless of what happens with my emotions and memories, this wonât change.â
Blade spat a mouthful of blood with some teeth and sneered. âThen, I really hope that you meet with the corpse of one of your children in the future.â
Yasenia glanced at Blade and then looked forward, ignoring him. Not because she was not offended, but because there were people around her who would not take this lying down.
Blade felt a hand on his shoulder, together with a fragrance of nature tickling his olfactory sense. Looking toward the source, he saw that the gorgeous Fox Woman was smiling at him. âI have captured a few of your Soul Dagger people to make experiments, but they are quite a lot weaker than you, and two of the fifty people have already died. Since you are more resilient, Iâll have to invite you to my Alchemy room. Flora.â
Flora stepped forward and bowed. âUnderstood, Madam Kali.â
Kali turned around and walked toward the Alchemy room while Flora dragged Blade away, walking two steps behind Kali.
After that, Yaseniaâs warship stayed silent until they arrived near the [Nascent Spring World]. Alaia manipulated the warship and lowered the speed, approaching slowly. The scenery in front of them was honestly quite imposing.
The world was at least twice as large as Feldur World. Around it, the girls could spot several spatial objects orbiting in a chaotic but orderly manner. Not only that, Yasenia and the others could see a few gigantic structures where several spatial ships entered and exited. It was clearly a hub of some sort.
Yasenia took everything in and commented. âThis world has a much larger expanse of nature preserved compared to Feldur World. Why is that?â
Remir knew that the question was directed at him, so he answered. âLady Yasenia, this world is our native world. All the other worlds in this Solar System that have life were terraformed by the people coming from the Nascent Spring World. This world also had another name in the past, but the Supreme Lord changed it once he ascended and became the omniruler.â
Yasenia nodded. âI see. Where is your Supreme familyâs location? I want to go knock on the door.â
This time around, Remir didnât answer straight away. If he said it and then something happened, the calamity would fall on his shoulders. Yasenia saw through his hesitation and spoke coldly. âYou hesitating is nonsensical. I have the ability to find this place easily; youâve already seen the speed at which my boat can move around. Then, once I make some trouble for him, the Supreme Lord will eventually appear.â
Remirâs heart sank, and he sighed, closing his eyes painfully. âYou need to go to Spring Country and find the Sharp Peak mountain range. The Supreme family resides in that mountain range.â
Yasenia nodded and grabbed him by the arm with her tail, forcing him to stand up. âPoint where it is.â
Remir looked at the large landmass of continents surrounded by water and pointed toward the upper left area. âOver there.â
She released his body, letting him fall again. Then, she nodded at Alaia.
Inside the Nascent Spring cave, the Supreme Lord was meditating with ten women around him. His eyes were closed, and his aura was deep and profound. Those around him were part of his large harem. One of the womenâs auras suddenly spiked, making the others open their eyes. One of the women spoke with a faint smile. âCongratulations to big sister. Youâve managed to reach the sixth level of the [Icy Mind Intent]!â
The woman nodded, her face beautiful and cold like the moon. Then, she spoke with a faint smile. âCompared to Lord, I am still lacking.â
Another woman chuckled. âWho can compete? He already has attained Level 9 of the [Soul Intent]. Naturally, he has no match in this regard.â
The Supreme Lord smiled faintly and commented. âOnce I manage to breach the final step and create a Heaven, ascending wonât be a problem.â He was going to continue before a terrifying pressure swept the entire place and a mellow and attractive femaleâs voice spread around.
âSupreme Lord, come out for me. Your welcoming gift... this dragon, I, has come to return it.â
The womenâs faces turned black as one of them shouted, angered. âPresumptuous! Who does this woman think she is? Iâll go welcome her and make her understand that she needs to understand what her place is!â
âIâll go with you, sister.â
âHeh. There's no need to. I just reached Level Six of my intent, and I want to try it on these people.â
Then, she walked outside the spring and changed from her semi-transparent, wet robe to a long blue dress. Seeing her leave, one of the girls chuckled. âThey had to anger Big Sister. Well, since they are seeking death, nothing can be done.â
However, as they were speaking, they noticed that the always relaxed and impassive Supreme Lord had his eyebrows slightly furrowed. âThat pressure⊠It was quite strong.â
The eyes of the nine women opened wide. The Supreme Lord stood up and commented under their stupefied eyes. âGather everyone. Iâll go meet them personally.â
Yasenia was currently floating midair in front of the main building of the Supreme Lord. The mansion was near the cliff of a tall mountain. On the side of this mountain, the girls could see an entrance adorned with gorgeous architecture that led into the mountain. For the first time since arriving at this Solar System, they could finally feel another type of Energy besides Cosmic Energy. They had been using the formations inside the Skeletal Warship to cultivate and supplement the lack of energy around them. However, this was only sustainable for so long. Of course, that limit was still far out.
âYou, woman, are arrogant to the extreme! Who allowed you to be so rampant in the Supreme Lord's Ancestral Home?â
The girls looked toward the caveâs entrance and saw a gorgeous woman walking out. Still, the eyes of our girls didnât even flicker. She was left several streets behind compared to their groupâs top beauties.
Yasenia glanced at her but didnât bother answering. This person in front of her felt so weak that she didnât even have the motivation to move.
Being completely ignored, the woman became angered. However, as he was going to explode further, her gaze couldnât help but land on the two people that the dragon woman held. The first person was held by the scruff of the neck with one hand. The man had vacant eyes, but his chest was slowly rising and falling, showing that he was not dead. The woman quickly recognized him. âBladeâŠ? That person is Blade?â
While there were resembling features, the aura was utterly incomparable. The one in her memory had a sharp demeanor and a handsome face. However, this man was wan and dispirited, looking as if he was a husk of his former self.
Her heart shook slightly, but her feelings were nothing compared to those she received when she looked at the other person. This second man was held by the dragon womanâs long tail, his body limply dangling without any strength. Her eyes squinted for a second before recognizing him. Her eyes widened. âY-You. Little Mir? Are you Little Mir!?â
Remir raised his head and smiled dimly. âMother Lucia.â
The woman named Lucia was not Remirâs biological mother, but she had taken care of him in the past. Seeing one of the Supreme Lordâs children in that state, a surge of anger rushed toward her head, and she glared at Yasenia. âRelease him at once! [Glabella Freezing Ray]!â
Yasenia glanced at the blue ray rushing toward her forehead and didnât move.
The ray struck her mind, making the womanâs lips arch in a sneer. However, before her sneer formed, she heard Yasenia speak. âSpiritual cultivation, while it doesnât nourish the Soul to the extreme like Soul Cultivation does, it doesnât ignore it either. Body Cultivation similarly doesnât ignore the Soul. Your strength is not bad, and your soul is larger than mine. However, in terms of the quality of the soul, we are incomparable. Your Soul attacks are similar to throwing a rock in a pond. You can only make some waves but nothing of substance.â
Luciaâs face gained a confused and angered expression. âWhat are you talking about!? There is only Soul Cultivation in this world! Where did Spiritual and Body Cultivation come from!?â
âIgnorant.â Yasenia spat and palmed the air in front. Formless energy compressed with this movement and shot forward with terrifying momentum. Lucia couldnât even dodge before the attack reached her.
BOOM!
It was at this moment that the Supreme Lord and the other nine people stepped out. The second they did so coincidentally became the moment they saw Lucia being compressed into meat paste by Yaseniaâs palm strike.
The women by the Supreme Lordâs side froze, their eyes widened in disbelief.
One of the women quickly rushed forward, looking at the crater Yasenia had created, and her mind became blank. âB-Big Sister Lucia?â
The perpetrator's voice reached them, carrying intimidating pressure. âAre you the Supreme Lord? Letâs talk.â
