After she landed her attack, Yasenia looked around. All her auras had disappeared, and she was on her knees, holding the half-buried [Draconic Heart]. She did not spread her spiritual sense to check on Tengliu and just waited.
Yet, even before the result was revealed, she felt somewhat liberated, as if the feeling that had been nagging her in the back of her mind had disappeared. Still, even if she didn't personally check, she spoke, her tone not loud but loud enough for the high-level cultivators around her to hear. "Check on Tengliu and save her life if she is alive. If she has perished… preserve her corpse and prepare a burial."
"Heh. COUGH!" A voice reached her from a few meters away. "You did… COUGH, not really think… I would perish, right?"
Yasenia's lips arched, and she looked over to the origin of the sound. "Quite resilient, aren't we?"
Tengliu's weak laugh reached Yasenia. "Hahaha… Not as much as I expected…"
Yasenia walked over and saw Flora and other medical maids attending to the woman who was supposed to be Tengliu. Parts of her body had lost all flesh, revealing bones, while the rest had deeply frozen chunks. Only part of her face was recognizable.
Flora looked over, and seeing Yasenia frowning, she explained, "Young Miss, her injuries are life-threatening. Your combination of Sun, Star, Moon, and Celestial energies is corroding her body from the inside. We need the go-ahead to use some of our most precious medicine inventory, even some medicines that are reserved for you, and we don't have many of them. Otherwise, saving Tengliu is impossible."
Tengliu coughed softly once, with no energy to do anything else. "That sounds dangerous."
Yasenia walked forward and sat by Tengliu's side with a sigh of exhaustion, setting Draheart by her side. "Go ahead. Use everything we have to save her. Call Valeria, too."
Flora nodded. "She should be here at any moment."
A whirlwind of leaves appeared by their side, manifesting a gorgeous three-meter-tall lady with incredible body proportions and green skin. She looked around, and when she spotted Tengliu, she blinked twice and exclaimed. "Wow, how are you alive?"
Yasenia's lips twitched, and Tengliu just deadpanned. The harpy didn't even have the energy to answer. Valeria smiled. "Oops, sorry. Not the time to ask that, right? Hmhm~, Flora, what have you used until now?"
Flora answered. "We've fed her a vitality pill and some flesh-regrowing medicine. We've also used soul ointments to prevent Tengliu's soul from unexpectedly detaching from her dying body. For Yasenia's energies, we can't do much. Celestial energy is too strong for us to deal with, so we could only use some energy absorption pills. Thankfully, Tengliu managed to protect her Dantian and Epoch Core. Her soul is also mostly intact, although it had received some damage from Yasenia's dragon roars."
Flora sighed. "We are having a problem with the internal organs and meridian net. Around the areas where flesh has been incinerated, Tengliu's meridians are wilting. To stop that, we just used a [Meridian Spirit Healing] pill."
Valeria raised her eyebrows. "Didn't you only have one of those reserved for Yasenia?"
Flora nodded. "We got permission from Young Miss to use everything we can to save Tengliu."
Valeria hummed. "Anything else?"
Flora nodded. "We have fed her a Life Saving pill that will prevent Death for ten minutes; seven have passed."
Valeria closed her eyes for a second and nodded. "We can save her, don't worry. However, the recovery will be at least three years, at most 300 years."
Tengliu sighed and muttered, her voice almost inaudible. "300 years… Please, make it less."
Valeria approached and leaned down, tapping her forehead softly. "Don't be silly, little girl. If I had not been here, this recovery could've taken a minimum of 500 years. Worst case, you wouldn't even completely recover!"
Tengliu blinked tiredly. "I see. Thanks."
Valeria smiled and tapped the ground with her feet, covering Tengliu's body in vines. Then, she closed her eyes, and her energy spread outward. The powerful Life Energy seeped everywhere and then gathered toward Tengliu.
Yasenia saw what was left of Tengliu slowly getting enveloped vines and smiled. "Once you recover, I'll give you a big hug. Tengliu, thanks for everything."
Tengliu's lips arched, and a whisper reached Yasenia before her consciousness was lost. "See you soon."
The dragoness smiled back. "See you soon."
Once Valeria and the other medicine-related maids took the vine cocoon away, Cecile and Tatyana approached, sitting by the dragoness's sides. Both of them leaned on her and stayed silent.
Yasenia spoke. "I've broken through."
Both women hummed, already aware.
The dragoness looked skyward and sighed. "All my intents have entered the seventh level. Monarch Intent, War Intent, and even Celestial Intent."
Cecile and Tatyana both hummed again.
Yasenia continued. "I could've used those intents together with [Midnight], but I didn't. I just used the level 6 intents."
Cecile and Tatyana nodded.
The dragoness smiled, conflicted. "I couldn't bring myself to give her a certain death, just a probable death. Using the Level 7 intents would've been enough to finish Tengliu off."
Cecile asked. "And?"
Yasenia chuckled softly. "Nothing, I just wanted you to know."
Cecile looked at Yasenia and smiled. "You did well."
The dragoness hummed, and Tatyana added. "I still don't like her."
Yasenia and Cecile laughed. Cecile commented with a laugh. "I don't like her either."
Yasenia blinked. "Well, I've grown somewhat fond of her during the last few years."
Both women hummed, and Cecile sighed. "You are a bit too… How to say it… When someone does something to you, you can easily disregard it if it is for us."
Tatyana clicked her tongue. "Dismissive to her own problems, but the second someone scratches us, she becomes a Dragon that brings death. As a mother, death cultivator, and someone with several undead armies, that brings me quite a lot of pride, to be honest."
Cecile rolled her eyes. "Well, why can't you become like that when someone disrespects you as well?"
Yasenia commented. "I am used to it?"
Both of them blinked a few times, unsure of how to take those words. Noting their confusion, Yasenia added with a smile. "I've always been very attractive. Since I started going out, I've received all kinds of lecherous gazes. I know many people have done other things to that. If I were to blow up every time someone disrespected me, I would blow up all the time. The number of gazes I receive, the comments I hear, and the attempts that many try to make on me. I think all of that has desensitized me about people crossing certain boundaries when it comes to what others would call humiliating me."
Yasenia hummed. "To be completely honest, I was so angry with Tengliu, not because she almost did to me, but because of what she said to both of you at that time."
Cecile and Tatyana remembered the scene and blinked a few times.
"Oh…"
"I see…"
The dragoness looked skyward again, and Tatyana asked. "Why are you looking skyward so often lately?"
Yasenia asked. "Now that Distancia's problems are all solved…"
Cecile interrupted. "What about that revenge against the groups that enslaved the girls from the S.L.U.T. groups?"
The dragoness commented. "All that had to be dealt with has been dealt with."
Cecile nodded. "I see. So, what were you saying?"
Yasenia laughed. "I was saying that since we are done, I've started thinking about the things that we left aside. Meaning those that we haven't found. For example, Angel's big sister. What do we do about that?"
Tatyana hummed. "Well, that's like finding a needle in a haystack for a mortal. Although, with Angel being with us, it is a bit easier. Sisters, or, well, close relatives, have an intrinsic bond between them that is traceable with the correct tools. Of course, many factors go into it, making it extremely difficult to achieve."
Yasenia hummed. "But, it is doable."
"Yes."
Pondering for a while, Yasenia nodded. "Well, let's do that. As for the rest of my friends… Well, we'll do our best by spreading the S.L.U.T. group throughout every corner. Let's make it an official superpower."
Cecile laughed. "You won't change the name?"
Yasenia raised her eyebrow. "The name that my dear mother chose? Why would I?"
Tatyana coughed. "I didn't choose it."
The dragoness snorted. "Do you think I still don't know that you are the one behind the creation of that group?"
Tatyana coughed two more times. "Anyway. What about the Divines?"
Yasenia blinked. "Right, we need to move this solar system."
Tatyana rolled her eyes. "Unless we have transcendent level power, doing that is a bit too difficult. By the time we are able to do it, whoever was sent out to find us would've found us long ago."
Yasenia blinked twice and turned to look at Tatyana. "Then what? I am completely clueless this time around."
Tatyana commented. "We make a fake copy of our Solar System and redirect all energy signals toward it."
The dragoness was speechless. "And that's easier than moving our Solar System?"
Tatyana looked at Yasenia's and Cecile's incredulous expressions and realized that they had misunderstood her. 'I meant to create something like an illusion that worked at a solar scale, but, well, I won't correct them. Them thinking that I want to create a completely genuine solar system is cuter and more hilarious.'
Yasenia slowly stood up and stretched, highlighting her seductive curves. Both women ogled the charming dragon woman without a shred of hesitation, appreciating the bombshell of seduction their love was.
Extending her long tail, she picked up Draheart and stored the sword back into her Dantian. Then, she commented. "Well, time to focus on raising a few little darlings!"
Cecile asked. "By the way, how are Andrea's attempts at fertilizing you?"
Yasenia pouted. "No luck yet… Why are my eggs so strong? I love my darling so much, can't you, like, slack off a little?"
Tatyana raised her eyebrow. "Would you slack off on a fight between you and her because she is always losing?"
Yasenia blurted reflexively. "Ha!? How could I do that? Instead, I would try harder so that my darling becomes stronger quicker… Ah."
The dragoness stood there, stupefied. "Okay, I understand my eggs are, well, mine. BUT! Do they really have to copy even that part of my personality!? This is not a war! I want to give birth to many dragonlings!" Yasenia pointed at her womb and scolded. "Many of them, you hear me? I don't mind if you slack off! Let Andrea's little soldier win for one! Aren't you a bit too extreme, massacring billions of them!?"
Tatyana and Cecile didn't even know how to react to Yasenia yelling at her ovaries. So, as good wives, they just interlocked their arms and ignored it. Their dragoness might be somewhat crazy, but both of them were not someone who was qualified to point fingers.
Yasenia sighed. "Anyway, the next big event is… is…. Oh? Estrella's one-year birthday! In a few months, my baby will be one year old! Kya! I am…" Yasenia sighed. "Worried. With that thing that happened, who knows that her attributes and such will be… I hope she is not a cripple…"
Both women patted the back of the worried mama dragon, but that didn't mean they didn't share some of her worries.
