Heaven, Earth, Me

Chapter 519: A Fox\'s Battle and Contempt.

One senior was surprised and screamed. "Lady Kali, what are those!? Are you colluding with those things?"

Kali looked at him and answered with her gentle and calming tone. "Senior, can\'t you see my creatures and those beasts? How could you compare them?"

The seniors focused and saw that Kali\'s army looked different, as every single creature was a dryad almost identical to the other.

The female-shaped women had very similar body shapes and faces. They were all tall, curvy, and with beautiful features. Their long green hair fluttered in the wind as their aura was profound but relaxing.

Their faces were expressionless, and their eyes had no actual intelligence in them. However, they looked ready to hear anything Kali told them to do.

"Excuse us for overreaction, Lady Kali."

Kali shook her head and softened her tone. "Do not feel bad. I expected it in a situation like this."

They all nodded and refocused on their fights. The monsters looked unending, after all.

Unlike the beast-like plant creatures, Kali\'s army was formed by four types of dryads.

The ones at the front had their bodies completely covered in wooden armor and had heavy wooden shields and maces.

The ones right behind them had lighter plant-based outfits resembling cultivation clothes and wielded swords, spears, and many other slashing and stabbing weapons.

The ones at the back wore a very light leaf dress, and their hands grabbed onto a refined wood bow.

Then, two other groups were at the sides, wearing nothing but an elegant flower dress. This last group was powerful in offensive and defensive nature-based cultivation techniques.

The number of dryads reached one hundred: thirty armored dryads, thirty melee dryads, twenty archers, and twenty skill users.

Of the skill users, five focused on healing, five focused on defensive skills, five focused on restraining abilities, and the last five on offensive skills

Kali had been practicing a lot with her summoning, and Valeria and Tatyana guided her in developing her skills.

The first piece of advice was to perfect one of her summoning skills as much as she could, and the one Kali chose was [Dryad Summoning] between [Treant Summoning], [Dryad Summoning], [Forest Summoning], and [Man Eating Plant Summoning].

Then, Valeria and Tatyana helped her with her questions, and she managed to create the current skill by putting in an incredible effort.

Kali waved her hand and made her dryads attack the other plant creatures.

They all moved in sync under Kali\'s commands and used basic army tactics to face the waves of creatures coming their way.

The front line kept them occupied and prevented others from slipping past into their back line. The melee dryads killed everything that passed the front-line dryads with ruthless attacks and agility.

Then, the archer dryads focused on distant enemies, continuously raining arrows and having the highest kill count between the groups.

The remaining caster dryads focused on aiding all the other groups and avoiding the formation from crumbling down when range attacks came or powerful creatures charged at them. They used their walls, rooting skills, boosts, healing, and offensive skills to keep everything under control.

Kali was not idle as she took her sword and joined her frontline dryads, guiding them in battle while also using one of her innate skills [Myriad Blooming Flowers].

The spectacle was breathtaking as one hundred beautiful women marched behind an equally alluring-looking fox lady with a mysterious veil, surrounded by myriads of flowers.

The fox was unstoppable as her sword harvested one plant-based creature after another.

The flowers surrounding Kali had corrosive effects that damaged every plant creature approaching in a two-hundred-meter radius and healing and reinforcing effects to help her front line.

Then, with the help of her battle-dance skill, [Whispering Blossom Essence Dance], she was light and flowy like petals dancing in the wind as her wooden sword sliced everything in her way.

Valeria didn\'t participate this time and overlooked Kali\'s battle while giving her advice.

Tatyana looked around and saw that the army was dwindling much faster after the girls joined the battle. Therefore, she stopped enjoying her fight so much and controlled the formation to activate yet another function.

The giant vine monster was heavily wounded after battling the five elders for a while.

During this time, the elders proved that they weren\'t weak at all and managed to hurt the monster quite heavily.

Tatyana couldn\'t exert too much of her fundamental skills through the creature, so she was being pushed back.

However, her face was extremely calm as her red eyes analyzed the battlefield like an otherworldly being overlooking the world.

Elder Song saw the giant vine monster heavily wounded and about to collapse and used her seven strings guqin to play a battle song and increase everyone\'s bodily strength and power for a few seconds. "[March of A Thousand Beast Men]! One last push, and it will collapse!"

With the sudden boost, the four others released a relentless attack against the Soul Hound.

Purple blood splattered around as parts of the creature were sliced off and flew outward.

Elder Man\'s fist glowed golden as his speed multiplied and appeared beside the enormous head of the creature. "[Fist Intent Level Two], [Golden Meteor Fist]."

*BOOM!*

The head of the creature rippled as the body was blasted away like a cannonball, with most of the head exploding and leaking the viscous purple liquid.

Elder Yu roared in laughter as he observed the beast lying on the ground without movement and with many wounds on its body. "Finally, we can land a clean hit! It looks very mangled. Did it die?"

Elder Mao looked at the bleeding Elder Yu and snorted. "We are not better than it. You almost lost your arm back then."

Elder Hao snorted. "The fact that we didn\'t lose any limbs fighting that thing is an accomplishment in itself. Its attacks are crazy and unpredictable. I\'ve never faced a more skilled enemy than this hound."

Elder Mu used her healing skills to cure them gradually. "Stay still, old men. It is hard healing all of you. That thing\'s blood has a slow-acting poison that lowers the healing rate, and I need to cleanse it. Once I cleanse it, you can go help the other groups."

Elder Mao was confused as his body slowly regenerated. "It is strange…"

Elder Song asked. "What\'s strange?"

"That punch landed too easily. I even felt like it was smiling while I landed the blow."

Elder Yu snorted. "Smiling? Wasn\'t that crazy thing smiling all the time? Its laugh almost burst my eardrums a few times."

Elder Hao asked. "Was it tired? We\'ve been fighting for almost an hour already, and maybe it was accepting its death."

Elder Mao shook his head and called for his blue eagle, which had been flying high up to avoid the confrontation. "Little Blue, be careful. High up in the sky with the rest of the flying beasts, and do not come down. I don\'t like this!"

This beast had been his companion for over a century, and he didn\'t want to lose him.

Elder Hao took her sword out and asked. "Should we brutalize its body?"

Elder Mao looked around and shook his head. "No. I feel that the problem is not in the monster…."

Yasenia took the small window of tranquility to take flight again and continue "looking around" with Angel. Angel was with her to make it seem like they were searching for the formation\'s weakness.

Her eyes moved toward Young Master Fu and saw he had been injured.

The blood flowed down his arm, and their flesh was opened to the bone. It looked like a single creature managed to sneak deep enough to attack him. \'Perfect opportunity.\'

Yasenia hastily communicated with Kali.

\'Kali, go to their side in the name of healing. Elder Mu is the only healer beside you and will be too busy in a second. Use this chance appropriately and take your time. We have a bit more than a minute.\'

Kali didn\'t lose time as she left her one hundred dryads by themselves while she flashed beside the juniors.

The other seniors reacted, but when they saw Kali, they relaxed.

Even then, Kali could see their wariness because of her plant summoning.

Kali looked at the juniors and saw Jorey lying on the ground with her head bleeding and eyes closed, Carbira at the side with a few cracks on her beautiful pink shell, and a few other juniors with more severe injuries.

"All the injured juniors take a step forward. I know healing arts."

The seniors were surprised and hastily added. "Is this true?"

Kali snapped. "Would I lie in a moment like this one!?

Jorey\'s cousin was alive and crying while holding Jorey\'s hand. "K-Kali, miss Kali, my cousin is badly hurt! The wound on the head is very deep!"

Kali nodded and approached. However, Young Master Fu interjected and shouted. "Heal me first. A fucking stray attack hit me on the arm, and I\'m bleeding. It also hurts like hell! What If I\'m unable to make alchemy anymore!?"

Many frowned and looked with unkind eyes to him.

Kali was no exception. Her verdant green eyes flashed with malice. \'I thought of showing you a bit of mercy with how much you would suffer… I think there is no need for that anymore.\'

Jorey\'s cousin\'s face became feral as she snarled. "SHUT UP! My cousin is about to die!"

Fu Yu wasn\'t fazed and looked at her condescendingly. "A little merchant group is not as important as my safety! You speak again, and I\'ll kill you!"

Jorey\'s cousin shouted. "You fucking asshole!"

Kali spoke coldly, interrupting before she said something out of turn. Jorey\'s merchant group was their ally, after all. "I can heal both of you simultaneously and many more people. Fu Yu, you lie on the left of Jorey. The other people who need healing stand close to them. If the injuries are severe, also lie on the ground."

Young Master Fu looked at Kali with a sneer. "Don\'t call me by my name, woman! Who the fuck do you think you are?"

Everyone felt the gentle aura around the fox lady cool down as the tails behind her waved menacingly. "Who am I? I\'m your doctor, asinine creature. If you speak like that one more time and raise your voice to me, I\'ll kill you, even if it means making enemies with the Fu Family. Do you think I\'m your servant? Do you think I fear you in any way?"

Fu Yu\'s expression became ugly, and he was about to open his mouth again. Yet, Kali flashed and appeared before him before anyone reacted with her sword on his neck. "Open your filthy mouth again."

Fu Yu\'s complaints choked in the back of his throat as he saw Kali\'s verdant green eyes shine through the veil. "What? Now we are silent?"

Fu Yu gulped, and just that movement of his neck\'s skin made him feel the cold edge of the sword, making her realize how close the sword was.

After he didn\'t speak, Kali\'s contempt reached an all-time high as she spat with disdain. "Coward."

A senior from the Fu clan stepped forward and asked sincerely. "Please, ignore his words and heal him, Lady Kali. We\'ll be eternally grateful."

Kali snorted and stopped intimidating him. She stored her sword and waved her hand to create the healing ground and aura.

Then, she used his vines to tie him onto the ground beside Jorey and block his mouth. The seniors from the Fu family not only did not complain, but they felt grateful for Kali closing his mouth.

"Whatever. I\'ll start."
