A few hours ago, Sierra was sitting calmly in her human form, looking at the horizon that could be seen from the warship.
Yasenia approached and sat by her side. The dragoness smiled at Sierra and asked. "Worried?"
Sierra shook her head. "I am… Nervous. Not worried. To be honest, when I heard that Fu Lang Zu recovered his limbs, I had already prepared for the worst-case scenario."
The Wolf Queen said calmly. "If it were something consensual, then I would naturally cut ties. While I find Zephyrith attractive and a good mate, I still know she is far from the only one. The Universe is vast, with endless creatures and worlds." Sierra smiled. "After getting out of the Secret Realm, my vision has expanded over and over again. I am still discovering new horizons in almost all things, and I will probably continue doing it for the rest of my life.."
Yasenia smiled. "However, if it was against her will…"
Sierra said coldly. "Then, Fu Lang Zu and his allies will pay." Sierra paused and looked at Yasenia. "Although, without you, that's nothing but a pipe dream."
The dragoness lifted an eyebrow. "Are you still going to continue saying thank you?" The dragoness smirked. "Your companion is my missy, who just got pregnant. Your problems were my problems since the second you decided to support Evelyn wholeheartedly."
Sierra laughed. "I know…" Thinking of the direction they were moving towards, Sierra asked. "So, how do you know where Zephyrith is?"
Yasenia said calmly. "The accessory we gave her has a tracker. Plus, it's not like the wedding site is a complete secret. There are guests from other races that are attending, using the ceremony as a way to communicate and plan things."
The Wolf Queen sighed. "Is everything going according to plan, or what?"
The dragoness shook her head. "Not at all. Fu Lang Zu forwarding the wedding was completely out of my expectations. I actually moved out a few months early to prepare and have an absolute advantage the day of the wedding, around two months from now."
Sierra blinked. "So… If it wasn't for your usual overprepardness…" Yasenia shrugged. "Sorry, Sierra, but we would've either been late or barely in time. My information network is deep, but in exchange for knowing even the deepest secrets, time is needed. Only urgent messages are instantly transmitted, without taking into account the risk of being discovered."
The Wolf Queen nodded. "I see… By the way, are you really going to use that sandwich?"
Yasenia laughed. "Don't you want to see his reaction to seeing his precious limbs being turned into food? A predator seeing his body become prey is usually quite a shock." Yasenia rubbed her chin. "Perhaps I can make his heart demons go out of control and make him go berserk… No… If Zephyrith moves as I think, it is quite likely for that to happen."
Sierra was stunned. "You are really insidious, aren't you?"
The dragoness bumped her shoulder with Sierra's. "We are at war, Sierra. During war time, my first surname is Dravory, and my second one is Ruthless."
Sierra laughed. "Aren't those two synonyms?"
Yasenia chuckled. "Well, I guess you are not wrong." The dragoness's golden eyes flashed and she said. "Oh? We are getting close, Sierra. Are you prepared to face him? He will try to squash you with his aura and show dominance."
Sierra snorted. "He is just a pup with too much physical strength. He wants to throw his bloodline and aura around?" Sierra tapped her forehead, where an elegant symbol that meant "Queen" was engraved. "He is dreaming."
"Hahahaha. Well said~."
Sierra smiled and followed Yasenia as the dragoness stood up. "Well, it's time to start a World War. I wonder if the humans will attend."
Sierra walked by Yasenia's side and asked. "Did you invite them?"
The dragoness shook her head. "Not at all. I invited them to visit the Astral Sky Sect, though."
Confused, the attractive, wild-looking wolf woman asked. "While you are away?"
Yasenia smiled faintly. "If they need me to understand what I mean after being guided by Ghana, then they are not worth becoming allies with."
Sierra sighed. "You are really something, alright? Can you not make simple plans for once? Every action you take has so many traps for the other party that I am starting to pity them."
The dragoness blinked twice and asked, confused. "Doesn't everyone do this?"
Sierra rolled her eyes and walked away; being by Yasenia's side made her feel mentally challenged.
Meanwhile, in the ritual hall, Fu Lang Zu had a smile as he looked at the people attending. "With this many leaders, there is nothing that can go wrong with this wedding. I will finally become a peak-level Epoch Core! The second youngest in the entire history of the Steel Back Wolves."
By his side, a red-haired wolf woman with extremely attractive proportions leaned on his side, asking. "Lang Zu, why is Zephyrith so important?"
Fu Lang Zu's smile soured, and he spoke in an annoyed tone. "Fu Song Zu, I already told you not to bring this up again. Today is a very important day."
Fu Song Zu was one of his most pampered consorts, so she was unafraid of him. "Ahn~, don't use my name, I'll get flustered~. But, my handsome Lang Zu, I really hate how much importance you give to stealing her Primal Yin Essence. Why didn't you forcefully steal it?"
Fu Lie Zu, a black-haired wolf woman at the side, looked at the red haired woman with a sigh. "I wonder why he pampered you so much. Did your brain rot because you were mouthfed everything in life by him?"
Fu Song Zu looked at her and smiled. "At least I get mouthfed more often than anyone else. Neither of my mouths is hungry, and I've already given him three pups~, the most compared to everyone else!"
Fu Lie Zu's face darkened while other women behind looked at the two with jealous expressions.
The Wolf Patriarch spoke. "Here come the envoys of the other powers. Song'er, this time, I am serious. Please, stay silent. If we anger them, we will have trouble. Lie'er, control your harem sister."
Fu Song Zu blinked and nodded, becoming obedient as her perky wolf ears flattened against her head in a sign of submissiveness. It was the same with the other people around.
A tall and burly bear man approached, looking mostly human-like with fur on the chest and the forearms. "Patriarch Fu Lang Zu, I am the envoy from the [Hellura Demon Sect]. We come this time with 100 Epoch Cores to show our sincerity in protecting this banquet and making it a successful event."
Fu Lang Zu smiled. "It is a pleasure to have a Demon Emissary upon us. Our race might've fallen in places due to the recent World Summit, but our strength remains mostly unchanged."
Another envoy was about to approach when a massive energy signal appeared on top of the Ritual Hall.
Like the light of judgment coming from the heavens, three wide beams approached from beyond the clouds at nonsensical speeds.
BOOM!
The pillars of light hit the protective formation, and the pure energy seeped into the barrier as it was absorbed. When that energy entered the formation lines, it disrupted the energy flow, and the entire thing collapsed like a dome of fragile glass.
CRASH!
Fu Lang Zu's face twisted in anger when he realized that the defensive barrier had been breached. With a brutal growl that shook the entire hall, Fu Lang Zu exclaimed. "WHO DARES!?"
A charming and seductive laugh spread around. "Who? Little pup, have you forgotten the dragon you've bothered time and time again?"
Yasenia appeared in the middle of the air like a goddess, her beauty and charm radiating from every patch of her skin. For a second, everyone there was speechless as they appreciated the goddess-like dragon woman.
Fu Lang Zu was not one of them; after all, his hatred for Yasenia surpassed his lust for her on several levels.
"You actually dare to appear in the middle of my capital!? Have you gone insane, Yasenia!"
Yasenia rubbed her chin while looking at him, and suddenly, her sharp, draconic eyes caught a wisp of black energy appearing from his neck area. The dragoness's eyes flashed with amusement. 'Wow~, he is much worse than expected. This makes things much easier.'
The dragoness shrugged. "Well, Fu Lang Zu, I heard that you were getting married, and I couldn't help but come to congratulate you." She smiled and threw something at him. "Here, my present."
Everyone was about to move forward and intercept that thing, but Fu Lang Zu didn't feel anything dangerous from it, so he raised his hand. "Wait."
The Astral Sky Sect members looking from the sky looked between the enveloped item and the Wolf Patriarch with pitying eyes. They even started whispering with each other.
"Say, do you think he will go insane?"
"Insane? If he doesn't charge at Sect Master with the intent to kill right away, I will bow down to his self-control."
"Right? Although he is an ass, just in this regard, I might take him as my big brother role model. Such tolerance for humiliation must be record-breaking among all cultivation worlds."
"Perhaps he likes it?"
Everyone looked at the woman who said it with a deadpan, and the woman blinked. "What? Am I wrong?"
Meanwhile, Fu Lang Zu suspiciously caught the item and used his energy to unravel it, revealing quite an appetizing-looking sandwich.
Some historians in the future would call this event "The Sandwich That Started A World War."
Of course, Fu Lang Zu didn't realize anything at first and asked with a sneer. "What? Is this a new way you've come up with of mocking me?"
Yasenia blinked. "Hm? That's a high-level Haeven-Ranked sandwich, for your knowledge."
Everyone from the wolf's camp opened their mouths wide and looked at the sandwich with a stunned expression.
The dragoness added with a smile. "Not only that, it will permanently increase the chances for your bloodline level to break through! Isn't it quite awesome?" Yasenia added, pointing at herself. "By the way, I handcrafted it~. I am a Spiritual Chef, in case you didn't know."
With such bombs, one after another, people from both sides didn't know how to react.
"Wait, Sect Master personally cooked it!?"
"On top of being the most talented cultivators to step on this world and one of the most beautiful beings to ever exist, she is the most talented Spiritual Chef in history. What were the Heavens thinking!? Give me a tenth of her talent, and I'll sleep with a smile on my face!"
"You sure you want a tenth of her tribulation strength?"
Everyone from the Astral Sky Sect camp got silent after hearing that.
Meanwhile, Fu Lang Zu looked between the sandwich and Yasenia with a suspicious gaze. "What's the catch? Is it made from feces or something?"
Yasenia rubbed her chin and commented. "No. Personally, I think it is something worse than feces. Sadly, I ate one, and it was quite delicious. Tsk, tsk. Such a piece of garbage tasting so nicely, it makes me want to capture him instead of killing him."
Fu Lang Zu frowned and looked at the meat that made the sandwich.
At this moment, Sierra approached and asked. "Can I reveal it, Yasenia?"
Yasenia stepped back with a smile and said. "Well, I just wanted to say hi. From here on, you are the one leading the speech, Sierra."
Everyone looked at the Wolf Queen slowly descending and landing on the ground, followed by Yasenia and 90% of the people in the floating ships. This created two sides inside the expansive, and after Yasenia's attack, open-roofed Ritual Hall.
