Chapter 1225. Deal. Kaleina Arrives.

Skye looked at the senior holding her weapon and slowly stepped back. Then, the gorgeous guandao disappeared into her ring with a flick of her hand. “Y-You! What tricks did you use!? That strength is far beyond what a Level 2 Dantian Spiritualization Realm can deploy!”

Skye didn’t take Da Haren’s shout seriously. She glanced at her and flicked her tail once. “Impossible?” She smiled mockingly at her. “As a Dragon, what is impossible?”

Leaving those words, she turned around and left. When she arrived, Katarina giggled. “Skye is so cool~. Those were some nice words to say. Hahaha.”

Hearing the teasing tone, Skye’s face gained a faint blush. “Ahem. Don’t focus on that.” Feeling a tail coiling around her waist, Skye already guessed what was going to happen next. With a gentle pull, her body fell into the embrace of her mother.

“My baby did so well! Do you want kisses? Do you want hugs? What reward does my pretty baby want?”

Looking up at her adoring mother, Skye smiled and hugged Yasenia back tightly. “Anything is fine if it comes from Mommy!”

Yasenia chuckled.

Meanwhile, the grandaunt of Da Haren approached her and spoke. “Are you now satisfied? I told you not to do this; I told your uncle, who is now dead, not to do this. Now, look. Defeated, humiliated, and your uncle is no more. What good revenge you took for your dead parents.”

Da Haren bit her lips, almost tearing up as she was scolded. The grandaunt sighed, but as she did, her facial expression dropped, and she looked back at the entrance of the floor. There, a group of ten youths accompanied by a man walked inside. She pulled Da Haren up, jumped out of the arena, and walked toward that group.

Meanwhile, the ten youths—seven men and three women—looked around the floor and quickly noticed Yasenia and her daughters. Their lips arched and turned toward the man. “See that, granduncle? We told you that they’ll be here.”

Before they took a step forward, though, a terrifying pressure fell on their shoulders. “What are you all doing here!? Is the Lower Heavens a place you can come to as you please!?”

One could say that the upper layers of Heaven were safer for their group since their main forces were situated over there. After Tatyana’s massacre of high-ranking people, their power in the Lower Heavens took a heavy hit.

Hearing that voice, the ten confident youths froze and started sweating. Meanwhile, the man sighed. “I told you that she would get angry. Now, since you don’t learn through words, allow your grandaunt to teach you with another method.”

The ten youths turned, and a young man, who looked like the leader of that group, spoke with a pleading tone. “G-Granduncle! She is your Dao Companion, so you at least could try and convince her…”

“Young man! Do you think I am deaf!?” The woman spoke sternly, pulling that man’s ear. “If you are here to cause trouble like your little sister, Da Haren, you are in for a rude awakening! Those you want to beat are not people you can face! You are too weak and, not only that, too impulsive! Do you think a Dragon won’t unfurl their wings to protect their young? What would you do if their mother appeared here!?”

The young man hissed in pain and stuttered. “H-How could their mother appear so suddenly? Isn’t she a very powerful being? She must be busy dealing with the aftermath of what happened!”

A mellow and charming voice reached them, tickling their soul and making their bones soften. “Well, sorry to say, but the aftermath was dealt with almost on the same day. If there is anything left, it is the grudge that appeared between us and your Dragon Hunting Clan because you targeted me.”

Looking over, the ten youths felt their throats clog and their hearts speed up. Yasenia was somewhat hidden with her clothes and veil. Even then, her beauty was easy to distinguish. Not to mention, her daughters were all gorgeous, each with a peculiar look that attracted the mind and body.

The grandaunt looked at Yasenia with a frown and spoke. “Please, don’t poke your head into our business.”

Yasenia smiled faintly. “I wouldn’t if your business didn’t include ambushing my children. You are lucky that you are here or those ten children would’ve already died, you know?”

“Is that a threat?”

Even when seeing her squinted eyes, Yasenia remained calm and unfazed. “I am just stating what would’ve happened. Just beating you up doesn’t seem to be something that would work. Moreover, you are not going to stop anytime soon, from the looks of…” Yasenia looked at the ten youths and snorted. “Their faces.”

The grandaunt noticed as well. After snapping out of her daze, these ten were looking at Yasenia with animosity. The woman glared at the man and hissed at him. “Why did you even think this was a good idea? Didn’t I make it quite clear that we are done targeting the Dravory dragons!? They are beyond our current scope of strength!”

The man blinked. “Honey, you are giving them too much credit. How could she destabilize our foundation that stretches throughout hundreds of thousands of years?”

Yasenia answered him. “How about I blow up your entire planet? Perhaps that way your so-called foundation will be blown to pieces with it.”

“Yasenia Dravory.” The grandaunt spoke lowly. “Don’t take my actions of trying to give you face as a sign of weakness.”

Yasenia smiled mockingly. “I am not. I know well that your strength is high. However, do I have to constantly live in fear that some of your people will have two wires crossed and suddenly attack me or my children without any rhyme or reason?” Yasenia stated, her slits thinning to vertical lines. “I’ll warn all of you one time, and one time only. If any of you even dare to harm those close to me. I don’t care if I have to blast through Heaven itself to deal with you, but I’ll make your Dragon Hunting Clan become part of History!”

One of the youths, trembling with anger, shouted. “How dare—”

Still, before he even spoke, Yasenia’s gaze moved toward him. The terrifying pressure instantly broke his will and temperament, making him let out a strangled shriek as he lost control of his body and fell to the ground, trembling. The aura of a Dragon of Yasenia’s caliber was something that could easily break most mortals both mentally and physically.

“Children should not come between adults when they are talking.” Ignoring the terrified person, Yasenia sighed and crossed her arms. “Here is a proposal so that this doesn’t happen again. Your little ones will fight my daughters in an Honor Duel. After that, both sides will go their separate ways. Can we do that? I really don’t want a pointless war between our sides to start.”

The grandaunt and granduncle looked at each other and exchanged words secretly. After a little while, the woman looked at Yasenia and nodded. “Okay.”

Yasenia nodded. “Skye has already battled. However, I won't deny it if she wants to fight again. The same goes for the rest of my children. They can fight as many times as they want.” She squinted her eyes. “If any of your children cripples mine permanently, I won’t be civil anymore.”

The woman answered calmly. “We are the same in that regard. Let’s move.”

Yasenia saw them move toward the location to rent arenas and she shook her head. She complained with a mutter. “I just wanted to spend a bit of time with my babies. Why did it become so complicated?”

Estrella approached and hugged her arm, smiling faintly. “Mommy, don’t worry. We’ll deal with them quickly and then spend the rest of the day with you.” She looked down at Yasenia’s stomach and grinned. “Also, don’t stress yourself too much. You are carrying our little sister, after all.”

Yasenia looked at Estrella amusedly and smiled. “What if it is a little brother instead?”

“Do you know?” Aurelia asked, curious.

“Nop.” Yasenia chuckled. “As long as I can sense if it is healthy or not, I am fine not knowing. I like it being a surprise.”

Seeing a gesture from the Dragon Hunter people, Yasenia started walking. “Let’s go. Mommy will be watching over you, so don’t worry and let loose.”

Estrella huffed. “If Mommy didn’t promise, I’d love to cripple a few of them so that they understand not to come again. What an annoying bunch.”

Dawn smiled wryly. “Big Sister, don’t be like that. I told you that violence is not always the answer.”

Estrella raised her eyebrow. “Wrong. Violence is not the answer when there is not enough of it. If you are capable of enough violence to exterminate your enemies, then why wouldn’t it always be a viable option?”

Katarina sighed. “Twisted logic.”

Estrella smiled faintly, her blue and golden eyes shining a bit playfully. Only in front of her family was she this soft. Anyone who knew Estrella outside of her family interactions would honestly worry that someone had changed the soul in the middle.

Once they were in the arena’s balconies for challengers, Yasenia glanced around with curiosity. It was a circular one this time around. The floor was covered with light brown dirt, and the protective formations were quite sturdy and glowing in a gentle yellow color on the walls and ceiling.

One man jumped into the arena from the opposite balcony and unfurled his cultivation.

BOOM!

He was tall and muscular, his body coated in barbarian-style dragon armor, and he held a large warhammer. The weapon would be impossible for mortals to wield, as its massive head, made of dragon bones, was heavy and sturdy.

He smiled mockingly. “I heard that you are all at the low levels of the Fifth Realm. Quite a shame, truly. I wanted a decent fight, since I’ve already reached Level 7 Dantian Spiritualization Realm at just 136 years of age.”

Estrella and the others blinked twice and glanced at their mother once. ‘He is actually older than Mommy?’

Yasenia looked at them and tilted her head. “What’s wrong? Are you worried about him?” She tapped her chin and hummed. “Well, it is normal for you to be. After all, you are all between Level 1 and 2 of the Dantian Spiritualization Realm. Even with more than one cultivation path, the strength difference is indeed hard to breach.”

As she pondered, she felt someone approaching her at high speed. Seeing the shadow pouncing on Yasenia, the children were startled and called out. “Mommy!”

Yasenia didn’t move, though. Instead, she turned around and opened her arms.

“Mommy!”

A gorgeous woman with violet hair with golden highlights jumped into her arms, her smile sweet and wide. Yasenia chuckled at the petite and slender woman in her arms. “Kaleina, love. When did you arrive?”

Kaleina rubbed her face against Yasenia’s bosom. “Hehe. When I heard Mommy finished her time with Mamas, I came rushing!” She turned and grinned. “Thank you for telling me, Little Aurelia!”

Aurelia shook her head. “No worries. You’ve been missing Mommy a lot, so I thought that telling Big Sis was the best I could do~.”

Yasenia looked at the man in the arena, and an idea popped into her head. “Baby, that man over there is challenging all of you. How about you go down and fight?”

Kaleina tilted her head, confused. “Why is he doing that?”

Skye knew how to push Kaleina’s buttons, so she smirked and added. “They want to humiliate Mommy by beating us.”

Kaleina’s smiling face froze for a second before chilling killing intent flashed in her eyes. Then, she stepped forward, and her body broke space around her, reappearing in the middle of the arena. “Since you want to die so badly, you just needed to ask.”

Yasenia coughed. “No permanent crippling, love.”

Kaleina snorted. “Hmph. Then, I’ll just beat him until he cries!”
