Heaven, Earth, Me

Back in the [Forgotten Star Area], Yasenia walked down the inn she had been staying in for more than two years with the entire group. Once she appeared in the main hall, everyone looked over. Many already knew her since the maids were very eye-catching, not to mention Yasenia, Valeria, or Kali. 

Once she approached the inn's reception post, the man there smiled and welcomed her. "Lady Yasenia, Lady Kali, Lady Valeria, good morning. What might I help you with?"

Kali spoke calmly with a smile. "Hello, we are going to leave today, so we are here to inform Lady He of our departure."

The receptionist's eyes widened, and he stuttered. "D-Did anyone offend you, Lady Kali? We will make sure that never happens again if you tell us who." 

Kali laughed softly and said gently. "No one offended me, don't worry. Our business in this city is done, so we are leaving. The inn has been nothing but welcoming. We are also going to make sure to leave a small extra for your caring service."

Kali placed five Sunderials on the table and smiled. "These are for you, sir." 

The man looked at the insane amount of money on the table and froze. Those five coins were enough to buy him, literally! What was he supposed to do with all of it!? His brain just froze, unable to comprehend it.

Lady He appeared through a door at the side, her elegant gait and formal smile shining through her beauty. She laughed. "Lady Kali, I would prefer if you didn't try to bribe my people."

Kali raised her eyebrow and smiled. "Bribe? Not at all. I just wanted to give a tip for their great service." 

Lady He rolled her eyes. "A tip that will make my people run is not appreciated! With that money, he won't have to work again in his life." Lady He placed her hand on his shoulder and sighed. "He is a really good worker. I really don't want to lose my people."

Kali got thoughtful and said, "Okay. Let's do this then. I'll give you a pill jar that will aid all of them cultivation-wise. It increases strength and vitality as well as purifying the bodies of low-level cultivators."

Lady He blinked and asked, her long eyelashes fluttering coyly. "Is there something like that for me?"

Kali waved her hand, throwing two pill jars to her. "There is. That second one is for higher level cultivators. It does something similar. I hope you like them."

Lady He looked at the second jar with a big smile. "Of course! This is a very generous gift. What quality are they?"

Kali smirked. "Peak-level Heaven-Ranked with 98% purity. Not half-bad, to be honest."

Lady He whistled. "That's impressive! I don't think that the top Alchemist in this city can compare. Perhaps those in Medical City could, though. Either way, their prices are ridiculous, so this is a gift I deeply appreciate. Thanks a lot."

Kali nodded. "No problem." 

Lady He looked at Yasenia and extended her hand, asking for a handshake. "We have another way of expressing gratitude around here. It was a pleasure to have you here."

Yasenia snorted a laugh. "I've seen you cupping your fist to other guests, though~? Tsk, tsk. Taking advantage at the end of our meeting."

Yasenia extended her hand, firmly gripping Lady He's hand. Lady He laughed. "Well, I need to make an impression; perhaps it will benefit me in the future."

The dragoness raised her beautiful, straight eyebrow. "Clever. Don't worry, though. I took you into account. Not only you, this whole place, to be honest. While the number of Demonic Cultivators is much higher than average, the morals of people are not that skewed inside this dome area. I guess the fear of the strong is a good way to keep everyone's attitudes obedient."

Lady He laughed. "That's because you haven't been in those cities dominated by the Sixth Realm Demonic Cultivators. They are quite… A sight."

Yasenia hummed. "I can guess."

She stopped the handshake and commented. "Lady He, remember to give one of those pills to Guard An. Although she left after we settled down, her guidance all those years ago saved us a lot of time and trouble."

Lady He nodded. "I'll make sure of it. Speaking of which, she has been promoted a few times since then. It seems that meeting you was a stroke of luck." 

Yasenia sighed. "Let's hope that it doesn't end in disaster. Some interested people might poke their noses too deep after I am gone."

Lady He tilted her head, and Yasenia revealed. "It's not like we've been incident-free during these years. There have been a few cases of greed and attempts at kidnapping from a few groups. Most of those groups have ceased to exist, but even then… Well, it is something I'll have to live with, I guess."

The dragoness flapped her wings once in exasperation. Lady He looked at them and asked. "I heard you didn't have them out when you arrived. Will you hide them away when you return?"

Yasenia extended her wings, curving them forward, and looked at them thoughtfully. "To be honest, while my tail is quite special and easy to remember, I think it goes unnoticed more than them."

Lady He looked at the extended gorgeous and large dragon wings and sighed at their beauty. "They are gorgeous, Yasenia. I really mean it, from the bottom of my heart." 

Yasneia smiled and said honestly. "Thank you. I appreciate honest compliments without hidden intentions." Then, she folded her wings onto her back again and spoke. "Lady He, we will be on our way. It has been a comfortable stay." 

Lady He cupped her fists. "Thank you for choosing our [Seven Star Inn]! We'll be awaiting your return."

Yasenia cupped her fists back and turned around. "We are leaving."

The entire group followed her lead and exited the place in an orderly fashion. Seeing the gorgeous people leaving, the guests sighed, disappointed. Some of them have been here for the last few years, and seeing that group of goddesses in the morning had become healing in a sense. Knowing they would be gone made many of them feel a bit empty.

Lady He looked around and smiled faintly. She clapped once and spoke after she got everyone's attention. "I understand how some of you might be feeling, but Lady Yasenia is a being that's bound to soar to Heaven. She is like a meteor shower, brief but ethereally beautiful. Let's say goodbye to her with grace."

"Yes, Ma'am!"

Once outside, Yasenia and the others mounted their flying swords and soared to the sky, approaching the city's entrance. When she was about to leave, several shadows left the buildings and surrounded her. There were around 200 people, all armed and of high-cultivation level. 

Yasenia sighed and stopped, looking around. The leader of those people stepped forward and smirked. "Where are you going, Yasenia Dravory?"

Yasenia shook her head. "None of your business. Now, if you have no real business with me, scram. I am going to leave this place, so I recommend not messing with me the day I leave; I'll be ruthless."

The man laughed. "And what can you do? We have 200 peak-level Epoch Cores here. Your group barely has 40 people, and some of you are not in this realm. You are going to follow me and listen to what I have to say, even if you don't want to."

Yasenia's calm face slowly cooled down, and her voice sounded cold enough to give chills to those listening. "Listen. I've been away from my family for too long. I am not rushing out of this city because I want to respect the laws implemented by the [Four City Kings]. So, I REALLY don't have any patience now. Move or die. Last chance."

The man shook his head and sighed. "Since you are so stubborn and still really think that you can beat us… capture her."

Yasenia's golden eyes were flooded with a bloody red color, and she growled. "Death it is, then. [Celestial Pearl]."

When her most powerful buff activated together with all her enhancing auras, the world around Yasenia appeared to have imploded. 

BOOM!

The aura shockwave was strong enough that even some maids got moved back. Her presence, amplified by her Level 9 intents and other skills, became as vast as the sky and as profound as the ocean. 

Then, Yasneia grabbed [Draconic Heart] and the [Celestial Energy Star] in her Dantian spun quickly, pouring large amounts of [Celestial Energy] into her meridians. Then, she swung her sword. "Disappear. [Empyrean Galaxy Domain], [Celestial Collapse]."

The man's face changed, and he shouted. "QUICKLY! DEFEND!"

His heart almost jumped out of his chest the second Yasenia's aura exploded outward. In terms of presence, Yasenia's current aura was far higher than any common peak-level Epoch Core. With the [Celestial Pearl] activated, she was in a stretch between the Transcendence Realm and the peak of the Fifth Realm strength-wise.

A wave of pure Celestial Energy mixed with all her enhancement auras rushed forward and slammed onto them with the weight of a star. The two dozen peak-level Epoch Cores that tried to block her attack had their defenses broken and were actually pushed back several hundred of meters, leaving an open path. However, unlike what people spectating from below expected, Yasenia didn't rush through the gap. 

Instead, she used [Pegasus Gallop] and rushed into the bunch of peak-level Epoch Cores with a terrifying aura full of killing intent and ruthlessness. 

Kali and the rest naturally followed, and then a slaughter began. While the 200 peak-level Epoch Core experts were much stronger than them in raw strength, the battle maids had battle formations with incredible individual strength. Valeria was also supporting all of them, so not to mention dying, them getting injured was a challenge.

Then, they had an enraged dragon woman in their ranks going on an absolute rampage. 

The poor bastards couldn't even last 20 minutes before they were completely annihilated. Using the inherent qualities of [Empyrean Galaxy Domain], escaping the space Yasenia dominated was very difficult unless you did it at first. After a while, Yasenia would gain some authority over the place and could literally lock people away from leaving. 

The leader of the group was facing Yasenia's absolutely relentless attack, his face pale. "D-Do you know who I work for!? You are committing a terrible mistake!" 

Yasenia moved into close quarters and threw a punch to his gut. 

BANG!

Her fist sunk into the peak-level Epoch Core's body as if his incredibly reinforced muscles were made of gelatin. His body shot skyward with a tremendous explosive sound. Yasenia used her terrifying speed to actually overcome the flying person and gathered the entire strength of her body toward her leg as she completed a spinning kick. "[Grand Cosmos Martial Art, First Form: Stellar Burst]."

When the leg hit the man, time seemed as if it had stopped. The man's body started cracking as the terrifying energy was transferred into him, and then, together with a massive burst of blood, he shot downward like a meteor.

BOOM!

Yasenia stood in the middle of the sky, looking at everyone from above as her dragon wings flapped. "There are more groups that want to stop me, right? Come out; I am not done yet."

Everyone on the ground that was going to participate almost pissed their pants. No one chose to stop Yasenia, and after she snorted with disdain, she left with the maids. 

Lady He, looking from a distance, had her mouth wide open. 'What in Heaven's name? She was this strong all along!?'
