Heaven, Earth, Me

Chapter 854: Three Months. A Conversation Between The Girls.

Angel, who just awakened, asked Kali after she arrived at their house\'s living room. "Where is Yasenia?"

Kali smiled and patted the free space by her side, inviting Angel to sit down. Angel complied and listened to Kali. "Yasenia went into closed-door cultivation around one month ago."

Kali used her two right tails to surround Angel in fluff as she felt her mood dropping. "How are you feeling, Angel?"

Angel hugged one of the thick, furry tails and buried her face in the clean, pleasant-smelling tail. It had an earthly scent with a hint of recently cut grass, filling each of her breaths with a relaxing aroma.

Angel answered with a smile while looking sideways. "I\'m feeling great. My entire body is so full of energy, hahaha."

Kali nodded as she continued with what she was doing. "I\'m feeling the same, hahaha."

Angel looked at Kali\'s hands and saw a plant-like thing that was slowly being molded by Kali\'s hands. "What are you doing?"

Kali\'s fingers moved through the plant creature with slow movements and spoke. "Hm… I\'m trying to create a new life."

Angel blinked repeatedly. "Huh?"

Kali laughed as she continued her movements on the palm-sized creature. "I\'m trying to create a new type of plant creature with a conscience to help me tend my garden."

Kali smiled faintly as she looked at the creature between her hands. "Sadly, it is too difficult to do that. While I can create it as a summon, that consumes my energy, and I have to order it around. This one between my hands was created with the help of my innate skills. My fourth tail gave me the power to modify the life I create and steer them toward certain paths."

Kali sighed, her energy gently flowing into the creature while Angel looked on with wonder. "However, even if the body is perfect, the organs work as intended, and the genetic code and bodily functions could properly support it, it doesn\'t come to life."

Angel was utterly clueless about this, so she asked with her eyes sparkling with curiosity. "Why?"

Kali spoke slowly. "It can\'t gain a soul."

Angel tilted her head as she looked at the palm-sized creature that Kali kept very lightly modifying. "Why?"

With a sigh, Kali shook her head. "I don\'t know, and Valeria won\'t tell me."

Angel laughed, feeling a sense of comradeship. After all, many times, she just wished that Mirrory would tell her the answer to her problems. However, she knew that the seniors were always looking toward the future with their slightly annoying secrecy.

Angel continued looking for a while, not knowing what Kali was doing but finding the situation pleasant and relaxing. Even if she didn\'t understand, she could appreciate that Kali was working seriously and slowly.

Evelyn, Cecile, and Andrea returned around two hours later, their breaths slightly ragged from all the combat practice between each other.

When they arrived, they saw Angel and smiled. Andrea asked. "You are back. How are you feeling, Angel?"

Angel moved her gaze from Kali\'s handwork and smiled brightly at them. "Super nice~. What about all of you? Were you sparring?"

Evelyn plopped her butt by her side and nodded. "That\'s right. I personally have developed new skills from my inheritance, so I was testing them. To be honest, they are strong. The rest of the inheritance skills have also become stronger with it."

Andrea nodded and snorted. "You are really annoying to deal with now. What\'s that speed? It\'s ridiculous."

Evelyn rolled her eyes. "Here talks miss \'I won\'t receive a wound even if a meteor falls on top of me.\'"

Andrea said, speechless. "Don\'t exaggerate."

Evelyn pointed at Cecile, who silently sat on another sofa, and stated. "She sent several of them, and you tanked them, FACE FIRST!"

Cecile took out a snack prepared by Yasenia, something similar to a pack of cookies; she had quite a few of them in her spatial ring. Well, all of them had their rings full of food cooked by the dragoness. In Yasenia\'s words, \'Just in case.\'

The girls wondered why they needed almost five years\' worth of food, "just in case," but they didn\'t complain.

Then, she munched on them while nodding at Evelyn\'s accusation. "She is right. I used [Moon Phoenix Meteor Shower], and you blocked them all."

Andrea coughed. "Real meteors are stronger… I guess."

Evelyn pondered. "Honestly, I\'m not too sure. Before, I would\'ve definitely agreed, but now…" Evelyn remembered the attacks and got goosebumps. "That was really strong. How you didn\'t think of dodging and decided to stand your ground is beyond me."

Andrea smiled. "Well, I was the first to break through, so I have a better understanding of my strength. I felt like I could block it, so I did. It\'s that simple."

Evelyn leaned back, her arms behind her head. "Fair enough."

Kali asked without looking away from the palm-sized plant creature. "What are Kaleina and Flame doing? Also, how is Tatyana\'s pregnancy going?"

Cecile answered shortly. "They are with Tatyana. It\'s going great."

Andrea laughed. "Our turn is soon, hahaha. I guess that after she breaks through, Yasenia will dual cultivate with us for a while to stabilize her foundation. Chances of pregnancy during that time are high~."

Angel asked. "But, now that we are in the Dantian Spiritualization Realm, isn\'t our fertility much lower?"

Kali chuckled softly. "Don\'t worry. If Yasenia were normal, we would need quite a lot of time and effort to get results." Kali thought back with a slight blush to the fertility of her lover and coughed. "But, she is nothing as such. If she stops blocking her own fertility, I give it two months before all of us have a little one inside us."

Kali looked at Andrea and pondered. "However, getting her pregnant will be a challenge."

Andrea nodded with a relaxed smile. "I know. While she is very fertile, it is also true that her bloodline should search for the best of the best."

Evelyn said with a severe tone. "Sister, you will be sucked dry if that dragon wants that. Be sure to take stamina pills."

Andrea was about to laugh, but the image of Yasenia\'s predatory pink eyes flashed in her mind, making her enter deep thought.

Evelyn, who was just joking around, blinked. "No need to get so serious, right?"

Andrea looked at her and asked. "Do you remember that one-time Yasenia cried back in Sky Continent?"

Evelyn nodded. "Of course, how could I forget that face?" Evelyn looked back and sighed. "I feel a bit bad for saying this, but she was so harrowingly beautiful. It broke my heart, but I couldn\'t help but appreciate her beauty at that time."

Cecile nodded. "Hm. She was."

Kali commented. "That\'s the story about Yasenia almost getting pregnant back then, right? You\'ve talked about it before."

Andera nodded. "Well, at that time, Yasenia was dominated by her instincts, and she was really… How to say it."

Evelyn suggested. "Aggressive?"

Andrea shook her head, pondering. Cecile spoke. "Desperate."

Andrea pointed at Cecile. "That\'s the word. Desperate."

Angel was confused. "Why would she feel like that?"

With a shrug, the heroic woman gave her opinion. "I think that at that time, Yasenia instinctively knew that she was in great danger. The awakening of her instincts probably made her realize what it entailed to be her and that her future wasn\'t guaranteed."

Kali muttered. "Well, Yasenia is always carrying a big burden on her, after all. If I had those kinds of Heavenly Tribulation always waiting for me, I would honestly crumble under pressure."

Evelyn agreed. "It\'s as if she is facing Death and not a trial. Having the all-mighty and all-encompassing Heaven targeting you must not be a good feeling."

Cecile added. "Not to mention, those two dragons further strengthened her previous tribulations. This time, it might not be any different."

Angel frowned. "Will they interfere this time as well? Are we sure that they want the best for Yasenia? Or do they have ulterior motives?"

Evelyn analyzed sharply. "They must have them. Do you remember the conversation between Yasenia and them during her Secret Realm tribulation?"

The girls thought back to when they wanted to stop Yasenia from gaining Celestial Energy, and frowns appeared in their expressions.

Evelyn nodded. "That\'s right. Why would they stop their inheritor from becoming stronger? Any person trying to pass down their inheritance honestly would become happier the stronger their inheritor becomes. After all, said inheritor will be able to spread their teachings all around the world, immortalizing them in another way."

Evelyn smirked and spoke. "Can you image a sect called [Luminous Spear Sect]? Or one that carries one of your characteristic skills as their name? It would be a sight to behold seeing elders and students threading your path and seriously studying it while you are their founder."

The girls agreed with that. Even for them, who were young, it was an exciting feeling. What more for a dead person who is just trying to find a proper successor?

Even if the school were small, as long as it could last for a long time, many seniors would feel happy to have left a mark in the everchanging cultivation world.

Andrea crossed her arms under her chest. "I see where you are going. Their attempt to stop Yasenia at that time is really suspicious. However, what if they were worried that Yasenia couldn\'t absorb it?"

Evelyn shrugged. "It is possible. However, their faces when Yasenia managed to make Celestial Energy hers weren\'t too happy."

Andrea nodded. "That\'s true, I guess."

Kali said. "Girls, I think we need to pamper her a bit more." The girls listened, and Kali stopped modifying the plant creature while speaking.

"To be honest, I just feel so blissful when I\'m around her that everything feels livelier, more entertaining, much more alive." Kali looked at them and said slowly. "It is true that she is the \'Harem Head\' and that she should be the most responsible one. However, I think that while we are getting better at sharing her responsibilities and worries, we still fail to make her feel secure around us."

Cecile asked. "In what way?"

Kali gave her opinion. "Yasenia has this desire to protect us all the time. Even if she allows us to do our things and lead our groups, she always places herself as the first line of defense in unsure situations. We need to change that."

Evelyn saw the logic and asked. "What do you suggest?"

Kali pondered and commented. "I think we should increase our coordination between each other. During these months that Yasenia will be gone, we should place our professions aside and focus on combat training. Do it together and increase our coordination enough to leave Yasenia helpless if she faces us all."

Andrea crossed her long and perfectly muscular legs. "Do you really think that she can face us as we are right now?"

Kali looked at Andrea. "If we ignore Angel, whose strength has increased the most with this tribulation, if Yasenia fights against you, Cecile, Evelyn, and me, she wouldn\'t win. However, I\'m sure that in a duel to the death, she can bring at least two or three of us with her."

Kali looked at Andrea\'s pondering expression and gave them time to think about it and absorb the information she just dropped.
