Heaven, Earth, Me

Chapter 213:

Trigger Warning, Gore.

[Host. I feel that Yasenia's opinion about you is changing, but I can't tell the direction.]

Sarah asked, confused, 'What do you mean?'

[Host. Her affection parameters have probably changed. Although there have been changes until now, they weren't big enough for me to realize. This change has likely happened after your conversation, so I would recommend Host to think if you have said something that could put you in a bad spot.]

Sarah was even more confused, '"Probably changed"? That is an awfully unclear description. I rather you do not say anything than saying things like this.'

[Host. Reading Yasenia's feelings is extremely complicated; the barriers in her soul are extremely sturdy, and I can't do much with my current strength. You should feel glad I can tell this much.]

Sarah was about to continue speaking with the system when she heard Yasenia asking, "Who are you speaking with? Although I didn't want to delve into it, I'm getting somewhat intrigued about this person you keep talking to."

Sarah's eyes widened, and her brain froze. 'H-H-How does she know!? System, can she read minds?'

[Host. I don't know what abilities she has. But I can guess that she used your expressions to decipher it.]

'My expressions? I am trying not to show any! How could she-.'

[Host. You should answer first.]

'Right…' Sarah looked at Yasenia and spoke with a stutter, "W-What are you talking about, Yasenia?"

Yasenia smiled, but Sarah didn't see her eyes smiling. "I'm asking you, with whom are you speaking? And don't try to tell me that you haven't because it is quite obvious to me."

Sarah felt this pressure from Yasenia again, a pressure that came when Yasenia was asking something completely seriously. Sarah looked down and said, "I-I can't tell you. N-No matter what you say, I really can't tell you."

Yasenia lifted her chin, looking directly into her brown eyes with her goldens, and asked, "Are you trying to hurt me, Sarah?"

Yasenia saw Sarah's pupils dilate and panic spreading fast in her face. Yasenia's acute hearing also heard Sarah's beating heart accelerating, and her body began sweating. Sarah denied it instantly, "I'm not! I'm not! I would never hurt you! I've never wanted to hurt you since the beginning!"

Yasenia looked into her eyes for a little more time without saying anything, making Sarah so nervous that even some tears began gathering in her eyes. Yasenia thought, 'She can't fake these reactions, and if she could... Then, I would have to bow down to her.'

Yasenia released her chin and then turned around. "Let's continue then; I won't delve into your secrets anymore. However, if someone comes later and he or she is with you, alert us in time, even before they appear physically before us. Else, an accident is bound to happen."

Sarah felt her legs weaken when Yasenia released her chin. It was as if Yasenia pinched her entire body and soul with those fingers and let it free when she released them. 'My god, I thought I was done for! She can be really scary.'

Sarah was about to speak to the dragoness, not to let any misunderstandings between them, but she saw Yasenia look to the right and smirk, "Is he with you?"

Sarah looked to the side and shook her head and hands; if she had a tail, it would also be denying it. "He is not. I don't know him. He has nothing to do with me!"

Yasenia saw her nervous appearance and laughed, "Don't be scared of me, Sarah. If you truly don't have intentions to hurt me or my dears, then you can get rid of any fear you have toward me. Walk near me. If he isn't with you, then he can only be trouble."

Sarah hastily walked beside Yasenia and looked at the tall dragoness shyly. 'Does she want to protect me? Maybe she feels bad because of her previous outburst?'

Sarah didn't know why, but she always felt safer when the tall and voluptuous dragoness was near her. Yasenia radiated this confidence, letting all her allies feel safe and secure around her.

The person that appeared was a tall and slightly handsome man. He had blue robes and a sword hanging on his waist. The thing that Sarah was more worried about was his level. [Host. He is a half-step mental nourishing cultivator. His combat capabilities are very high.]

Sarah became slightly fearful, 'C-Can I win? Can Yasenia and the others win? What level are they?'

[Host, winning would honestly be hard without me taking over. You are too inexperienced, and although I can't analyze the strength of the other three, I can tell you what their levels are. Yasenia is level six, Angel is level eight, and Kali is level eight. Taking this into account and the fact that you also are in level eight, it should be in favor of the half-step cultivator.]

Sarah stepped before Yasenia and said, 'Be prepared to take over.'

Yasenia didn't miss this little detail and raised her eyebrow, 'Does she want to protect me? How cute~.' The dragoness felt as if a small animal was trying to protect her, not knowing that she could slap their enemies to death.

The man was actually from a righteous sect. He was one of the top talents of that sect, following the path of body strengthening. Even if he looked slim, he was packed with compact and perfect muscles. However, body strengthening always comes with some Yin, for women, or Yang, for men, strengthening, which meant that their lust also grew in proportion.

His eyes looked at the group of women, and first, he spotted Angel. His type has always been shorter women, so our little Angel was extremely attractive to him, 'Wow, she is cute and sexy! I really want to have a relationship with her.'

He also observed the others, and when Yasenia entered his sight, he slightly froze. 'My heavens, what is that? A seductive goddess that fell from the sky!? Although I still prefer the small one, having sex with this big beauty must feel divine!'

By the time he finished inspecting the four women, Yasenia's eyes had already chilled. 'I'm going to gouge his eyes out if he keeps looking at my baby with that gaze!'

The man approached with a gentle smile, but Yasenia had already seen through his bullshit. Even then, Yasenia still smiled and asked respectfully, "Senior Brother, I don't want more people joining our team. Could we please resolve this peacefully, and each goes our way?"

The man hummed pleasantly, 'Even her voice is attractive.'

He gently laughed and smiled, "You don't have to be on guard with me, beautiful lady. I've always thought that the more people, the better. I can also see that your levels are slightly low, so this senior brother wouldn't mind being your protector since I'm at the Half-step level! Moreover, I've naturally unlocked 54m of spiritual sense!"

Yasenia internally sneered, 'Bragging with that little number when my darling had developed 84 m just after crossing into the half-step?'

Yasenia was pissed off by him. It was a fit of irrational anger that burst after his gaze toward Angel and that statement. However, she still had the mind to give him one last chance to go away. Therefore, after patting the nervous Sarah, our dragoness walked toward him with sensually sashaying hips, a lazily swishing tail, and a natural yet seductive smile. "Senior Brother, I really don't want this to develop into a battle. Could you leave, please~?"

The man looked at Yasenia up and down, eating her with his eyes, and making Kali and Angel frown with cold-looking eyes. But he didn't realize because he didn't have enough eyes to look elsewhere besides our dragoness's jiggling softness, 'Is she scared of me? She should be because of our difference in cultivation. Hahaha, she is so stupid for showing weakness this easy. It seems that I'm going to have a good time soon!'

The man said, changing his tone because he thought Yasenia was scared of him. He was now speaking condescendingly, "Sure, we can each go our way. However, I have a condition."

Yasenia stopped fifty meters away from him and asked with a seductive smile and red-golden eyes, "And what would that condition be, senior brother~?"

The man found the red that was spreading through Yasenia's golden eyes quite attractive. He said with a smile, "I will let you and your friends go if you let me dual cultivate with you and that small blonde! What do you say? I think it is quite a good bargain and no one loses! Me fancying you should be something to be happy about, hahaha."

The only reason Angel and Kali didn't directly pounce on him was that they felt Yasenia's aura thickening. Yasenia blinked twice, 'Blonde? Huh? He wants to dual cultivate with MY baby?' Yasenia laughed seductively, surprising everyone present. "Hahaha~, I really didn't want things to end like this, but you are really letting me with no other choice."

Sarah was more nervous than anything. "Angel, Kali, will Yasenia be okay? He is much higher in cultivation, right? A-And why is she laughing like that?"

Angel and Kali sneered, and Angel said, "He is courting death. Just look and don't interfere."

Sarah was surprised at their change of personality. Right now, they both exuded killing intent, and their faces were extremely cold-looking, giving her chills. 'A-Are you sure they aren't Yanderes?'

[Host. I'm sure. However, be careful with the fox woman; she has extremely strong heart demons.] Sarah nodded and refocused on Yasenia.

Yasenia said, with the same sensual tone, "A pig wants to dual cultivate with me? Hahaha, I will give you five seconds to scram before I beat you to death. How about that?"

The man was stunned and then became angry, "How dare you speak to me like that?"

"One."

"A mere level six Cultivator going against me!?"

"Two"

"You are still counting!? I will make you and the ones behind you-"

"Three."

"-suffer for not accepting my merciful offer!"

"Four."

The man took out his sword and charged forward with all his strength, with the intent of pinning Yasenia down. However…

"Five."

The instant Yasenia spoke that word. She put strength in her legs and shot toward the man. Sarah saw with stupefaction as the floor below Yasenia sunk while Yasenia's body blurred, shooting forward with enough speed that she didn't perceive her movements until Yasenia appeared before the cultivator.

The next thing she knew, Yasenia was blocking the sword with her tail, and her body was crouched in front of the man. Her form was very similar to someone about to throw an uppercut.

*CLANG!*

A shockwave spread because of the collision of the tail and sword. However, to Sarah's surprise, the blade didn't cut through Yasenia's golden tail and rebounded, making sparks fly at the collision point. There wasn't even a scratch on it. 'How tough is that tail!? But will Yasenia be able to absorb the strength from that high-level cultivator?'

These thoughts weren't left unanswered for long as it wasn't Yasenia but the man who lost balance, surprising Sarah even more. Then, Yasenia clenched her fist, and from her crouched position, she used her whole body to deliver an uppercut to his chin.

Her legs pushed her body up, followed by her torso, transferring that momentum to her arm. The floor cracked under Yasenia and the sound of air exploding followed her fist as it approached the man's chin, completely unavoidable.

The man felt the pressure even before the fist hit him, and he began regretting everything, 'I messed with a monster!'

Sarah was horrified as Yasenia's fist impacted his chin. She was horrified because the fist didn't stop there. His chin shattered like glass as Yasenia's fist continued upward unimpeded, opening a hole in his face.

The man's head whiplashed, and the powerful momentum sent him spinning into the air, spewing blood, teeth, flesh, and brain matter through this opening. His face was extremely mangled and horrifying to look at, but he wasn't dead. As he spun in the air, his body couldn't even respond to the waves of pain assaulting his brain in torturous agony because of the terrible momentum that threw him into the air.

However, this torture didn't last longer than his fall. When he was about to hit the floor, Yasenia recovered her stance and punched forward, connecting with the falling cultivator. With extremely good timing, Yasenia's fist banged with his torso.

Sarah's horror grew as the man's chest swelled because Yasenia's [Dragon Strength] was expanding his insides unnaturally until his body couldn't hold this amount of pressure. A shower of gore stained everything before Yasenia, with flesh, bones, and other human parts going in different directions!

Two punches and one Half-step cultivator at the beginning of the level died, that was Yasenia's current strength. Under the Unification realm, she was almost matchless!
