Heaven, Earth, Me

Chapter 338: Kali\'s conversation with Lu Hao.

From the ground, Lu Hao was still in shock. How could someone so strong hide their strength so clearly? Kali\'s aura felt like something hiding behind a veil, similar to her face. Therefore, he couldn\'t gauge that she was in the Unification Realm.

Of course, this was Valeria\'s work. She had used a skill to hide Yasenia\'s and Kali\'s auras, leaving something superficial that didn\'t appear too strong. She didn\'t want this person to run away the second he detected their strengths.

Moreover, while they talked, Valeria filled the underground with countless roots, creating a formation. It took quite a long time, but with Angel\'s help from the shadows, she was able to complete it extremely fast.

The formation she created was a weak space-isolating formation. She didn\'t want a life-saving treasure to allow him to escape, after all. In short, without them knowing, she had weaved a net of roots that could kill all of them instantly with a single thought.

Lu Hao stood up and jumped backward toward his group. After hearing Kali\'s question, he frowned, still not knowing what she was talking about. He really wanted to shout about what she was talking about and why she was confronting him. But that clash with her made him acknowledge how much this two-tailed fox-woman outmatched him.

The reason he didn\'t even understand after hearing the name "Kali" wasn\'t complicated. First of all, the man wasn\'t aware of what had happened to Kali after that incident, and he also didn\'t care.

He was scum, and Kali wasn\'t his first or last victim. Using the influence of his family, he banded with men and women to attack many other women he found interesting. People like Alyssa existed, so using these rich and powerful young masters and mistresses to ruin a person\'s life was not unusual.

Of course, it was something done underhandedly, so it didn\'t happen that often. Strength could make you quite powerful and influential, but there were always limits. Believe it or not, in the righteous part of the Continent, there were plenty of rules and limitations.

Moreover, these kinds of unscrupulous people weren\'t that abundant. However, because their actions were so heinous, they caught the eyes and ears of others much easier, making them very noticeable.

Kali and Yasenia looked at Lu Hao, and to Kali\'s surprise, she saw that he was still confused even after saying aloud her own name. Even if he didn\'t answer because of caution, his expression laid it out quite clearly that the confusion wasn\'t acted.

Kali couldn\'t believe it at first, was that event something so insignificant to this person? Was all the suffering he caused her so easy to ignore and forget?

She really felt like someone had punched her gut and damaged something. However, before the Heart Demons could even begin gaining territory back inside Kali, the dragoness\'s voice soothed her like the most relaxing sound. \'You see, honey. People like him are creatures that act like humans. You are happy now, right? You don\'t have to seek their guilt, their apologies. They are just inferior creatures whose life is worthless. A waste of fresh air.\'

Kali looked at the dragoness and saw her looking back at her with gentle eyes. \'Deal with them like the trash they are. Make them suffer with the poison skills you\'ve learned, make them regret making an enemy of you, and when you feel satisfied, let\'s move on. They are not worth your time, don\'t you think? Or are you willing to waste time we could be cuddling with them?\'

Kali smiled and laughed aloud. She approached and hugged Yasenia into her bosom. How lucky she felt to have her by her side? All the sadness she felt banished just listening to her words, listening to that mellow and slightly deep voice that caressed the hearing sense. It was like drinking from a fresh spring on a hot day. "You are right. The more time I spend with him, the less time I can spend with you, my love."

However, when Kali was hugging Yasenia, they suddenly heard him say. "Wait, Kali? Isn\'t that the name of that useless broken toy?"

Kali felt the lovely dragoness between her arms disappear, followed by a loud explosive sound. She blinked twice and looked sideways.

At the same time, Lu Hao barely saw a blue shadow appear before him before a powerful claw clamped on his face, digging into his skin. Then, an irresistible force flipped his body and pushed him toward the ground.

Before his back smashed into the ground, he saw a reptilian golden eye.

*BOOM!*

His world spun as his brain shook because of the impact. Worse, he felt his skull cracking but not shattering. Clearly, the owner of this force was careful enough not to kill him in one hit.

However, the shards of the skull dug inside his brain, and pain assaulted his body as he also felt his ribs cracking because of the impact against the ground. "AARGH!"

The other nine people only turned their heads when the explosion\'s shockwave made them take back almost five steps. What they saw was the previous dragon grabbing his head and growling as she dug Lu Hao\'s body into the ground with pure physical strength. Blood stained that claw as Lu Hao\'s internal organs had ruptured, and he was spitting blood.

A chill ran up their spines, not expecting this creature to be so strong. In a single second, she had incapacitated their strongest fighter.

The fear was so intense that they didn\'t even register Lu Hao\'s shout of agony until some seconds later.

Kali blinked at the dragoness basically teleporting and then laughed. She walked toward them calmly and asked aloud, "Didn\'t you just say not to mind him?"

Yasenia lowered her claw onto his chest, digging them into his flesh to grab the bones, and snorted. "One thing is not to mind him; another is letting his filthy mouth run as he likes."

The other nine snapped out of their support when he shouted because of Yasenia\'s action one more time, and they cried with trembling voices.

"W-Who are you?"

"Why are you doing this!? What did we do to you!?"

The female lover pointed her sword at Yasenia and said with a trembling voice. "R-R-Release him! Or we will be forced to fi-fight!"

Kali took off her veil and tapped the floor with her two tails. "So noisy, stay still for a second. [Root Entanglement]."

In that instant, roots exploded from below the nine cultivators, constricting them in place. Like snakes coiling around their prey, their bodies became immobile in an instant.

They released their auras, but none of them were inside the Unification realm. Kali was able to restrict them easily. No matter how they struggled, they wouldn\'t be able to escape the fox\'s skill.

Ignoring the other nine, she arrived before Lu Hao and leaned above his bloody face, showing him her scarred face. She smiled and asked, "Do you recognize me now?"

His eyes widened as if he saw a ghost. Kali finally saw the reaction she wanted and her lips arched. "So you do recognize me~. Surprised? Shocked? Stunned? Hahaha, that\'s a good face you are making."

The man shouted with his eyes trembling with fear, "Y-You, how are you still alive? How are you still sane!?"

Kali chuckled and smirked, "Thanks to my two most important people, my lover and my dear Valeria~."

Lu Hao was at first stunned, and then he laughed through the pain. "Does he know you are a used- AARGH!"

Yasenia\'s claws sunk into his skin, ripping one of his ribs off. Kali saw the blood pour out and sighed with a smile, \'She can\'t even control herself; so cute~.\'

Then, she began healing him and said, "[Flower Bed], [Healing Sap]. Hmm, with this, you shouldn\'t die yet."

Then, she patted Yasenia\'s head and said softly, "Let him finish, my love. At this pace, you are going to kill him."

Yasenia blinked and nodded. "He is very annoying and fragile, I almost couldn\'t control my strength there."

After coughing another mouthful of blood, he managed to sneer and say. "He must be living happily without knowing how used you are." Yasenia\'s claw twitched again, but she held it in.

Kali looked at the about-to-die man and said, impressed. "To think that you still insist on continuing with the same sentence that made one of your ribs pop. What is your objective? You are going to die a torturous death. Such an agonizing death that it would be hard to describe. Yet all you try to speak about is that."

Kali smirked, "Did you think I would get angry and kill you? You are very wrong, Lu Hao."

Lu Hao snarled, his face distorting because of pain and his convoluted emotions. "So what if I die!? You will never be able to escape me! You will never be able to forget those three days!"

Yasenia\'s pupils thinned, \'Huh? Three days?\'

Kali saw Yasenia\'s expression and scratched her under her chin. "Don\'t worry, my love. You just have to remember our night weeks ago to know that I\'m already over it. You don\'t need to get angry."

Yasenia nodded but decided to be extra gentle the next time they did it. Her objective to make Kali have her mind with only love for herself hasn\'t ended yet, and it will probably never end. Kali was her fragile treasure, and she wouldn\'t let some random people mess with her.

Kali looked back at Lu Hao and taunted him. "Well, sadly for you, my lover knows about it. Even then, she loves me dearly and treats me like a precious treasure. My Heart Demons are more than half gone and slowly but surely disappearing. Moreover, thanks to eating them, I managed to awaken my bloodline~."

Lu Hao\'s face was filled with surprise and shock. "How is it possible!? No one would accept someone like you! You are a broken shoe, and nobody will love you truly! Hahaha, he is deceiving you, Kali. He is using you like a tool!"

Kali looked at the increasingly insane man and looked at him with fake pity. "It must be frustrating, right? For a scum like you, the pain you inflected in me should be something important for your ego, right? However, although deep, it only lasted a few years. Compared to the long life ahead of me, the hundreds and thousands of years I will live after your death, this small event will slowly fade away and become a distant memory until I don\'t even remember it clearly."

Kali sighed with melancholy as if witnessing a tragic story. "To think that even the thing you thought would torment me will disappear. How pathetic can your existence be? At least, the trash on the road is annoying, and you may remember it. You, on the other side, are worse than trash, not even able to leave a mark on me."

He spat another mouthful of blood, feeling his heart constrict unnaturally. Each word Kali said with such a calm tone dug inside him like knives. However, he still managed to make a cruel smile, "No marks? Do you not see your face in the mirror? Such an ugly monster; your man is probably blind to like something like you."

However, to Lu Hao\'s shock, Kali lifted her eyebrow and laughed. "Sad and lowly creature, do you want to know who my masters are? Elder Frederich and Dr. Ava. The best alchemy of the Rising Talent Academy and the personal doctor of Lady Tatyana, the Death Empress. Do you really think they can\'t heal some scars inflicted by random juniors? Delusional sub-trash, your life is a failure! And you will die without accomplishing anything."

Then, not wanting to spend one second more on him, Kali took out a slimy black, purple, and red pill and forced him to ingest it with her aura pressure. "Time to experience something specially prepared for you~."
