The conversation was fruitful, and Yasenia learned plenty of details about the general powers. Moreover, with skilled talk, Yasenia hid most of the things about themselves.
The only thing she revealed almost entirely was their strength profession-wise. The main reason was that they would rely on this for their cooperation, so hiding their capability would do more harm than good.
During the conversation, Elder Song had taken a real liking to Yasenia.
Although she appeared young, she was intelligent, sociable, and neither arrogant nor humble once they knew her better. Her personality was just right.
Moreover, she also knew how to do business without getting a loss and without making them feel like they were losing out.
Therefore, Yasenia ended up falling in the category of excellent junior. Naturally, they weren't sure about her strength, but age-wise, Yasenia had clarified that she was indeed younger than them.
Nevertheless, since the dragoness only explained things vaguely, it strengthened the feeling of mystery and attraction around her. 'She would be a good partner for my grandchildren...'
Elder Song observed Yasenia for some seconds, and since the serious conversation had ended, she decided to strike first before the other elders could. "Girl Yasenia, you are very talented and beautiful. Your age is also the best time to begin a family. I have a grandson who is considered the number one musician of his generation. Would you like to come to our sect to listen to his music? He is well-spoken, and you two may share many interests since he also has a small business outside the sect."
The other four Elders almost cursed aloud. 'Tsk, this serpent woman is sneaky. She took the advantage.'
Yasenia was momentarily surprised.
However, she recovered fast because she felt six pairs of eyes burning holes in her and the pair of hands in her shoulders increasing in strength.
Her eyebrows and mouth twitched as cold sweat trickled down her temple. 'My dears are becoming a bit radical...'
Yasenia coughed and said with a smile. "Sorry, Elder Song. We can meet if it is without matchmaking purposes. Otherwise, I would like to avoid meeting not to sour our relationship with love matters."
Elder Song was surprised. "Why so fast to reject me? I can tell you that he is quite a good man. Moreover, since my Clan is part of the seventh Clan between the thirty-three, you must not underestimate our bloodline. Although yours is something I have never felt before, our [Five Fanged Serpent] race is one of the best on the Continent."
Yasenia nodded and smiled. "I understand, Elder. However, you must understand that I have a family waiting at home. Moreover, even if I want to meet with him, I would have to ask my wives for permission first, hahaha."
They all nodded and remembered the tiny dragon that had appeared earlier. After Kaleina fell asleep and disappeared from their sight, they almost forgot about her.
Moreover, Elder Song heard the word "Wife," not "Husband."
'Is Yasenia male? I've seen males with feminine bodies, but this person doesn't give that vibe.'
Elder Huo from the Earthly Sword Sect lifted an eyebrow and thought similarly to Elder Song. "Hoh? You are quite obedient to them. Also, girl Yasenia, are you male? Since you have female companions, where did this child come from?"
Yasenia chuckled. "Well, I don't want to explain too much. However, I can say that having children between us is not a problem."
Yasenia looked at Elder Song and said calmly. "As I said, I'll speak with my wives first. If they want to, we will definitely look for him."
Elder Song nodded absentmindedly. 'So she likes females....'
Elder Mao smirked and muttered, "Wives eh…."
Then he asked aloud, "Does junior Yasenia have more than one?"
Elder Song's ears perked up, and she listened to Yasenia's answer.
Yasenia chuckled and nodded. "Yes, we've been together for some years already. I hope the elders' opinions don't decrease and think I'm a philander. We are very much in love, and everything has been consensual."
Elder Mu, Elder Yu, and Elder Hao sighed. 'My granddaughters are already in a relationship. Even my daughters have their own pair.'
Elder Mao, on the other side, said with a smile. "By the way, you've been paying attention to Body Cultivation methods, right? Coincidentally, I have a daughter in my sect that part of the librarian. You can meet with her and speak about it in the future. What do you say?"
Yasenia sighed. 'Dears, I know it may feel a bit uncomfortable, but this is a chance to enter the library and look for Body Cultivation techniques.'
Tatyana said calmly. 'Accept. It doesn't matter much what her thoughts are of you as long as you do not show interest and make clear your intentions.'
Yasenia nodded and said. "Sure, I'll pass one day. However, I have stopped admitting wives for a long time, so I recommend not getting her hopes up. Let's leave everything to flow naturally. If something happens, then we will welcome it. If it doesn't, we can still be friends."
Elder Mao thought for a second and found it reasonable. Therefore, he didn't push the matter. "Sure. That's also fine."
Yasenia said thoughtfully. "I really love my current wives. Therefore, I don't want to hurt them by accepting others into my Harem without deep consideration."
They all raised their eyebrows and got to know Yasenia a little more. 'She is a loyal person for those she has accepted. Her character is not bad.'
Elder Song asked, her elegant face looking curious. "Are you the oldest?"
Yasenia shook her head, "Not by a close margin. One of my lovers is a very o- Ehem, experienced person."
Elder Song nodded, her gaze flickering with an unknown light.
Then, Yasenia stood up, and the others followed. "Elders. It has been a pleasure, but I must go now. I hope we can keep in contact."
Elder Mu asked. "Before you go, can I get to know the alchemist that created this pill? They seem to be an extremely formidable person."
"You've already met her. She is the powerful alchemist." Yasenia smirked and used her tail to hug Kali's waist.
Their eyes widened as they looked at the young-looking two-tailed fox. She had a veil that covered her entire face, but it was transparent enough to let people discern her beautiful green eyes.
Even then, they could spot some scars on the top of her forehead, so they instantly guessed why she wore the veil.
Elder Song frowned, feeling some pity. "Child, do you need our help? Elder Mu should have some medicines for scars, right?"
Kali laughed softly and said. "Don't worry, Elder Song. I've already come to terms with my appearance. Moreover, these scars are not that simple."
Elder Mu was surprised and asked. "Can I see them?"
Kali didn't have any trouble and lowered her veil for some seconds.
The elders couldn't help but suck in a deep breath. Elder Yu was quite honest, so he got angry and asked aloud. "Who is the ruthless person who did this to you? Tell us, and we will teach them a lesson!"
Yasenia smiled and commented with a cold smile. "Don't worry, senior. They are already living a life worse than death."
Kali spoke said reassuringly after putting her veil back on. "Don't worry, elders. I've already told the Lady to allow me to cure this myself. That's why I started the alchemist path seriously. It is one of my many motivations."
Their eyes changed, and they looked at Kali with appreciation. Even the usually cold Elder Mu's eyes slightly changed while looking at Kali, showing some warmth. "Hmm, good, good. You are a talented child, so you will definitely be able to find something soon."
Elder Yu asked. "And who may be the blacksmith? Did they also come?"
Yasenia looked to the side at Andrea and chuckled. "Present yourself."
Andrea stepped forward from behind and raised her right hand to grab the air. "This lowly guard has the pleasure of meeting the Elders. I'm the Lady's blacksmith."
Their eyes naturally showed surprise. They could vaguely feel that this person was a human, after all.
Elder Yu looked at the sleek, beautifully forged armor and halberd and asked with surprise. "Did you forge the armor and the Halberd?"
Andrea nodded without taking off her helmet. "Yes, Elder."
The others were also impressed. Elder Huo, from the Earthly Sword sect, asked. "Can you create swords as good as that halberd?"
Andrea nodded formally. "With my recent breakthrough, it should be possible as long as I put in the effort and time. I feel I'll be able to craft even better equipment soon."
They couldn't help but reevaluate this human. Their eyes naturally fell on the other humans and got thoughtful. 'Are all these as talented as that person?'
They didn't show any resistance to a human being talented, mainly because Yasenia's prowess had numbed their senses a bit. If they were random people, their feelings wouldn't be so neutral.
Elder Huo nodded in praise. "Good, I may come to you for my disciple's next sword or mine."
Andrea said calmly. "It will be an honor."
Yasenia finished the conversation. "Well, since you already know about our deal, I recommend telling your sects to come and get the compensation. Also, we'll be participating in the incoming Auction with plenty of interesting products, so we recommend your attendance."
Then, she smiled. "We'll be in our house until then, preparing the items for the Auction. Let's have a pleasant cooperation."
They nodded, and Elder Mao said, leading the group of elders. "We also feel the same, Yasenia. I hope we are allies for years to come."
Yasenia nodded and calmly turned around, walking away.
They looked at the dragon tail swishing from side to side in an S pattern and got thoughtful. Many questions filled their minds.
"What kind of beasts do you think they are? Do you think they are from the 33 clans?" Elder Yu asked.
Elder Song shook her head. "I once heard a verse about the silver phoenix. High and mighty, strong and lonely, but as their first love appear, they maintain their loyalty. A verse for the [Moon Phoenix]. The legend of this race is widespread, and many of the lower phoenixes related to these creatures exist in our Continent. However, that woman didn't seem related. I think that she is a legendary [Moon Phoenix]."
The others were surprised. Elder Mu exclaimed. "A Moon Phoenix? It is rumored that they have at least a high-level divine Bloodline level!"
Elder Mao frowned and said. "For someone like a Moon Phoenix to willingly follow Yasenia, she must be extraordinary herself."
Elder Song smirked. "Of course. However, I do have a feeling that Yasenia is the lover of the Moon Phoenix. I felt a trace of each other in their concealed auras. Only thanks to my [Harmonic Intent] could I spot a trace."
The others were enlightened.
Elder Yu laughed. "Well, I can't blame the legendary creature. If I were in my prime, I would've tried to court Yasenia with all my might!"
Elder Song frowned. "Hmph, we aren't that old. Moreover, she said she had older lovers..."
The Elders choked and looked at Elder Song with shocked expressions.
As the elders discussed them, Yasenia and the others left the large mansion and walked toward the center of the city, the place where the City Lord resided.
Yasenia's eyes looked into the distance and muttered. "Well, it is time to meet each other, City Lord."
