Yasenia ignored Feng Yuan and looked at her side. To her surprise, she saw Cecile right beside her, running as fast as her without seemingly any effort. This showed the tremendous improvement her transformation gave her. Angel was impressed and spoke, "Cecile! You are so fast!"
Cecile was running on the ground since she was still a beginner with her wings, but she could match Yasenia's speed easily. Cecile said, "When I learn how to fly, do you want to get a ride, Angel?"
Angel's eyes sparkled, and she nodded. "I would love to!"
Yasenia said with a suggestive tone, "I also want to ride you while we fly~."
Cecile looked at Yasenia, and a strand of violet flashed through her icy blue eyes. She answered, "We will see who rides who." Then, she accelerated and reached the middle of Tian Long's back, leaving an aroused dragoness behind.
When all of them reached the middle of his back, they looked around to search for a sitting place. Tian Long's back was very uneven, with areas where small hills could be seen. Tian Long said, "Come to my head, little princess. The view should be better."
Yasenia obeyed and moved on top of his head. Then, she found the best place to look around and a large grey scale to sit on. Yasenia placed Angel and Kali down and said, "Darling~ come here! I want to sit on your lap~."
Andrea gladly moved over there and sat on the wide flat scale with a small wall to recline her back. Then, Yasenia moved and put her soft butt on her lap, moving the tail to the side to not bother Andrea. After accommodating and rubbing against Andrea, she smiled, satisfied.
Andrea hugged her from behind and sighed in comfort. Feeling the soft dragoness between her arms and the soft behind on her legs, Andrea couldn't help but tighten her embrace and kiss Yasenia's nape.
Yasenia chuckled and leaned back. She looked at her two little girls and patted her legs. Angel and Evelyn moved, and each sat on one leg.
Kali sat beside Andrea at the orders of the dragoness and Cecile on the other side. Yasenia smiled happily with her dears surrounding her. Tatyana appeared and said teasingly, "Look at my baby dragon, hoarding her dears around her."
Yasenia's gaily smiled as she looked at Tatyana. "Mom, sit near me too!"
The happy tone in her voice made Kali and the others gently smile while looking at the dragoness. Tatyana couldn't help but have her face soften looking at that scene. She walked in front of Yasenia and said, "Little treasure, let me present Hui Zhong to you. He was my sworn brother when he was alive."
Like Ying Yue, he had long white hair and ghostly green eyes that shone with a phantasmal glow. His height was similar to Yasenia's at 190cm of height.
He had a muscular build, and his face seemed carved by a master, with such sharp contours that it looked sculpted to perfection. He was extremely handsome, which made Yasenia and the others fall into a daze for a moment.
Hui Zhong bowed and said, his voice deep and magnetic. "It is my pleasure to meet you, little princess. I'm the Empress's [Undead Emperor]. I will always be at your service if you want advice on anything."
Yasenia woke up from her stupor and nodded. "Nice to meet you, Hui Zhong! I will keep it in mind. Do you have a specialization like Ying Yue?"
Hui Zhong shook his head and said, "I'm a pure fighter and also talented in politics and governing."
He chuckled a little and said, "I'm less of a brute compared to Ying Yue."
Ying Yue swiftly smacked him behind the head, generating a big Bang and sending him flying outside Tian Long's head. Ying Yue then spoke with a gentle smile and voice, "Who are you calling a brute, Zhong? I'm a refined lady. Do not listen to him, little princess. He sometimes exaggerates things."
Yasenia was controlling her laughter while nodding to Ying Yue. "En, Ying Yue is elegant and beautiful."
Ying Yue's smile widened, and she looked tauntingly at the returning Hui Zhong.
Tian Long saw that the presentation was done and asked, "Where are we going, Tatyana? Did the continents change a lot while I wasn't here?"
Tatyana answered, "We are returning to the academy. Also, you don't have to worry, it hasn't passed too much time on the continent, so there haven't been any changes. By the way, don't go too fast since we aren't in a hurry. Let little treasure enjoy the ride back."
Tiang Long made a sound of approval and prepared to take off.
Cecile looked toward the phoenixes and said, using energy in her voice. "Although some problems arose, I'm grateful for the opportunity to be reborn. This favor, I will remember in my heart!"
Eira, Boreas, and Feng Guoshi smiled. Then, they transformed into phoenixes and waved their wings. Eira spoke with an imposing aura. "I hope your wings carry you high up in the sky, and your cry harmonizes with the Heavens."
The other Phoenix echoed, "May your cry harmonize with the Heavens!"
Then, all of the Phoenix cried, filling the world with their melodic sound.
*QYAA!*
Tian Long flapped and flew off, leaving the Ice Nirvana Mountain behind. Like that, the group left the mountain, closing another chapter of their lives.
While they were flying, they observed their surroundings. Because Tian Long wasn't flying too fast, they actually took a while to leave the devastating landscape. They could see dust clouds around, even if some time had passed since the battle. The destruction was extremely big. After flying for a while, Kali spoke, "Look, that is where the effects of the battle end."
Evelyn whistled and commented. "Uncle Long! Your roar was impressive. Look all the damage you did!"
Tian Long laughed, "It seems that I'm not that rusty. I can still create these results after all these years without fighting."
Andrea was curious about something, so she asked. "Why did Yasenia and Alaia kneel to you, Uncle Long?"
Yasenia and the rest also paid attention. It was Tatyana who answered, "It's not hard to explain. Tian Long's bloodline is at [Progenitor King] level. Moreover, his realm is in the seventh realm, a Mythical Beast. Therefore, all the dragon-related bloodlines are under him, allowing his aura to make all of them kneel. This could also be summarized with the words, 'Bloodline Pressure.'"
Evelyn frowned, "But Yasenia's bloodline is also at his level, right? She is also a [Progenitor Queen], so there shouldn't be too much difference."
Tian Long answered. "You are incorrect, little girl. Her bloodline is one notch stronger than mine, which I found impossible since I always thought I had a peak level bloodline. However, the little princess is just a young and weak dragon compared to me. Therefore, even if her bloodline quality is strong, compared to this old fossil, it is just minuscule! I'm sorry for making you experience that, little princess; it must have felt terrible."
Yasenia laughed and said, "Don't worry, uncle Long! It was a valuable experience. You slapped the little arrogance I was growing out of me, hahaha."
Tian Long said, "It is bad to be arrogant, however! Remember that you are a dragon, be proud of-"
*BANG!*
Tatyana slapped his back with a phantom hand, making him dip almost to the ground. Tian Long exclaimed, "Why did you hit me, Tatyana!?"
Tatyana said with a menacing tone. "Don't you dare ingrain dragon pride in my little treasure! Do you think I can't beat you up because you are tougher than before!? Then think again!"
*BANG!* *BANG!* *BANG!*
While Tatyana protected them and beat up the dragon left and right, Yasenia's respect toward her mother broke the max level and evolved into faith. How often can you see a human practically spanking a dragon of this level?
Tian Long exclaimed, "Okay, okay, stop! Even if it doesn't hurt, you are hurting my pride! Moreover, Remember who I am carrying!"
Tatyana stopped and looked at Yasenia. Wrong choice because Yasenia's current admiring expression and wagging tail were begging to be thrown onto a bed for Tatyana. While heat spread in her nether regions, Tatyana seriously thought, 'Is it worth it to accelerate to the academy and eat her clean? Of course! The sensation of sinking in- No, no, no, let her rest a bit after all the events… But maybe… '
Seeing Tatyana stop, Tian Long sighed. Even if it didn't hurt him physically, it hurt him emotionally! A dragon had to keep some pride in them!
Meanwhile, without the world knowing, another fight of epic proportions happened inside Tatyana's head.
The rest of the way back was relaxing, without anything more happening, and they arrived at the Academy territory in some hours.
Tian Long's massive body flew over the Rita State, scaring everyone. The four elders appeared beside Tian Long, and Elder Ron asked, "Headmistress, Did something happen? You rarely summon Lord Tian long."
Tatyana said, "The Ice Phoenix Matriarch and Patriarch will arrive soon. Guide them toward Tian Long when they arrive. I will tell all of you de details when I have time."
All of them bowed and dispersed. Yasenia asked, curious, "What level are they, mom?"
Tatyana said, "They are at the half-step of the transcendence realm. They are one of the strongest on this continent. The four can go against the Heavenly sect leader or the Demonic sect leader. However, in a death match, it is hard to know who would win."
While they were floating down to their mansion entrance, Cecile asked, "Tatyana, I want to control my wings and tails. Who do you think I should find for it?"
Tatyana looked at Alaia and said, "Help her. However, phoenix tails aren't for combat like a dragon's, so only teach her how to fly."
Alaia bowed, "As the Lady says!"
Evelyn looked at Cecile and commented. "We are going to be training together, Cecile! Let's do our best!"
Cecile nodded.
They felt the remaining tension leaving their body when they walked inside their house. Yasenia went to the sofa bed and slumped on it, face up. Then, Angel and Evelyn followed, slumping on top of the dragoness. Yasenia caught them. Cecile sat beside Yasenia's head and patted and scratched her. Andrea sat next to her feet and began massaging them. Kali sat on a chair nearby, looking at them.
Tatyana smirked and said, "Hui Zhong, Ying Yue, I'm sending you back. Help Teacher arrange the new army."
They both nodded and bowed, "Farewell, Empress, Little princess."
Yasenia waved her hand, "See you soon~."
They both disappeared, dispersing in a cloud of green and black smoke.
Yasenia let her hand fall limp and growled comfortably, closing her eyes. Andrea asked while massaging Yasenia's beautiful and round toes. "So, what is the plan from now on?"
Cecile massaged Yasenia's scalp as she answered, "Get stronger, perfect our skills, deepen our understanding of the side professions, and win more credits."
Andrea exclaimed, "I almost forgot! Yasenia, I spoke to Elder Irina before we went to the Ice Nirvana Mountain about the sword, and she has agreed to give it a look in one month or so. Has it become stronger since you began cultivating with it?"
Yasenia said languidly, "I think it has… It hasn't upgraded in rank, though…."
Now that they were speaking about upgrading the sword, Yasenia remembered the egg. Yasenia looked at Tatyana strangely, not knowing how to ask.
