Chapter 154. Yasenia's insecurities.

What was happening to Yasenia and the rest was quite normal. It also had a name in their world, [Cultivator's Will Wall]. It happened when a low-level cultivator saw an all-out battle between seniors.

This "Wall" made advancing harder for some cultivators, and others directly stopped cultivating, unable to bring themselves to cultivate again, knowing what kind of battles laid ahead.

Of course, most cultivators had heard, read, and seen pictures about the amount of power senior cultivators have. However, knowing "They can blow up mountains with a single attack" to seeing a literal landscape-changing attack in person was something hard to process.

However, for our girls, the worst shock came with Tian Long. Before this, they were scared but still had their bearings.

However, they just saw cultivators that were on a level above their imagination, changing the landscape, making the space tremble, and moving at speeds impossible to follow. Cultivators they saw as invincible. They could barely take this with a strong heart.

But suddenly, this titanic creature appears, and it just one-shots one of these all-powerful Demon Monarchs, shortly after proceeding to take the others down like flies.

Yasenia began taking deep breaths, filling her senses with her mother's scent, and slowly calmed her crazily beating heart. 'Come on, Yasenia, be strong! I have to take care of my dears, give them security! Do it for the future you want with mom. That future you pictured yourself in….'

Yasenia's heart rate lowered slightly, and her golden eyes regained strength. This was enough for her to stop her obvious trembling. Then, her face became calmer, and she straightened herself away from Tatyana's embrace.

Tatyana looked at her and made sure that she was recovering from the shock. Seeing Yasenia move toward the others to console them with an almost calm disposition, she smiled, gratified. 'It seems like it will be only a momentary stump. She will overcome it shortly. Moreover, with this, I solved her growing dragon pride problem~. I'm such a good mother~. Well, even if she decided to stop cultivating because of this, I would take care of her for the rest of her natural life, finally dying with her...'

Tatyana looked around, and saw that only Horux was left, still escaping the chain but unable to leave because of Tian Long's Domain. Tatyana looked up at Tian Long and said, "Stop playing around; you will be able to come out more often from now on."

Tian Long snorted, creating a hurricane in front of him, and said, "You always say the same, and then some millennia pass before I get out. Moreover, since you have been slacking in cultivation, I also can't cultivate. It has been very boring lately; I can only sleep…."

Yasenia, who was consoling her dears, entered a coughing fit, 'Slacking!?'

Tatyana almost blushed, 'How dare he say these things in front of my little treasure!? I will spank him later!'

Then she said, tempting him, "I will let you out often to play with my little treasure. What do you-"

*WOOOSH!*

The whole sky was covered by chains, bringing darkness to the area below him. Horux' final thoughts before being captured were, 'This fucker was playing around all along!?'' And then, his world turned black, being surrounded by layers upon layers of chains.

Of all these situations, for the demons, the worst thing was that they couldn't use space-attributed treasures or just run out to get out of there since Tian Long had locked everything; their only fate was being captured without any possible retaliation. Worse, self-explosion wasn't an option since the time to activate it was enough for the chains to reach them and stop even this.

Ying Yue and Hui Zhong appeared beside Tatyana, and Hui Zhong said, "All of them are dead, Empress."

Tatyana nodded and floated above the sea of dead demons; some dead phoenixes were also lying around.

Boreas wanted to interrupt, but Eira stopped him. "Let her do what she wants. I would also like their corpses to return to us, but I rather not put little Tatyana against us because of the ones that died protecting us." Boreas sighed and nodded.

Tatyana began gathering an obscene amount of energy, making her long black hair float around. Her voice echoed as she chanted. "Death, the end of everything. An unavoidable fate for all living beings, no matter the strength, no matter the status, no matter who they are. Death claims all."

Tatyana's red eyes glowed as her aura inflated, making the land tremble. "But death isn't the end, for my power bends Fate! For my power bends the meaning of death! Thus, I call you to live eternally in your death under my command until the day I perish and beyond! [Death Empress decree: Eternal Legion Awakening]!"

Tatyana's green-black aura burst out, covering the whole battlefield. Then, her aura sank into the corpses, disappearing and returning everything to normal. However, this was the beginning.

All the dead creatures began rising, howling, grunting, and moaning. Filling the land with the sounds of countless laments. Then, Tatyana spoke with regal authority, "[Death Empress decree: Path To The Underworld]."

Under Tatyana's floating position, black cracks appeared in the ground below each recently raised undead, swallowing them. The cracks multiplied in number as they spread, covering more and more ground, sending every single undead creature into the dark abyss.

When all the undead disappeared, the cracks closed, returning the landscape to its previous state as if nothing had just happened. Tatyana flew down toward Yasenia again, and Boreas and Eira followed.

While Tatyana made her army even bigger, Yasenia was beside Evelyn, Kali, and Angel. She was hugging the three of them and kissing their heads softly. The three of them returned the hug strongly and breathed in Yasenia's scent, cleansing their nostrils of all the burnt scent and filling them with their dragoness sweet scent.

Angel was in the middle, with her head buried between Yasenia's softness.

Evelyn had Yasenia's arm over her shoulders and was pressing her face against the soft side breast.

Kali had Yasenia's tail coiling around her body, and her veiled face was buried in her neck.

Yasenia's voice was mellow and slightly deep, caressing and soothing their heart. "Are you better now? There, there. We still have some years until we reach this level. We've just begun our path, isn't that right, my loves?"

Andrea approached from behind Angel and squished the little girl. Extending her arms to hug the four of them. She spoke in her deep voice, "Take deep breaths, girls. Relax your nerves. Once we return home, imagine what kind of pampering you will receive from Yasenia since you all were scared."

Angel and the others chuckled, relaxing their nerves. Cecile covered them with her big silver wings and said, "However, don't forget about this scene. Like you all did with the event at the tournament. Burn it in your hearts and use it as motivation. We are going to reach this level and become even stronger than this."

Yasenia gave another kiss to them and said, "Let's go, dears. Mom is coming back."

Yasenia picked up her baby, supporting her little butt with one arm, and placed the other arm over Evelyn's shoulder. Then, she coiled her tail around Kali's body.

When Tatyana arrived, she saw this scene of them welcoming her with a smile, a little stiff, but a smile nonetheless. Tatyana's lips slightly raised, 'Good, all of them seemed to be overcoming this wall rather fast. Yasenia's eyesight was good.'

Tatyana spoke. "Time to return to the Academy. There are only less than five months left until the realm opens!"

Angel looked at Tatyana and said, "Umm, Tatyana-"

Tatyana pinched Angel's cheek and reprimanded, "Not calling me mommy Tatyana anymore? Are you afraid of me, little Angel?"

Angel blushed and smiled shyly, feeling happy that nothing changed. This action also seemed to affect the other five besides Yasenia since their rigid postures relaxed slightly.

Yasenia couldn't help but marvel at her mother. One sentence, and the tension dissipated. She said with a smile, "Oy, is it my harem or mom's? Why do I feel love emanating from my baby!? She is stealing my dears!"

They burst into laughter while Angel blushed crimson. She honestly asked, looking at Yasenia, "I-Is it bad if I also like Tat-" Angel felt a red gaze locking on her! "*Cough* m-mommy Tatyana?"

Yasenia laughed and rained her cheek with kisses, "Of course not!" Then Yasenia said with a sage tone, "Heavenly tribulation is unavoidable, and so is falling in love with mom."

Tatyana raised an eyebrow, "Don't slack, little treasure. Or they may leave you for me~."

Then she dramatically said, while Yasenia looked at her stupefied, "The difficulties of being so attractive, I'm in danger of stealing even my dearest daughter's harem. I'm a sinner!"

If Yasenia didn't know that Tatyana loved her the most, Yasenia would have become scared for real. 'Mom as a love rival? I rather fight a Demon Monarch! I have more chances of winning that way!'

Then they heard another big explosion, followed by an earthquake. Yasenia thought, 'Now what!?'

She turned with her baby still in her arms, only to see that the culprit was Tian Long, who had just landed on the ground. Now that she was more clear-headed, Yasenia couldn't help but be speechless. 'This is just… Impossible to describe the sight. We are at the top of the phoenix mountain, an enormous 800km tall mountain, yet we only reach the middle of his body.'

Tian Long tilted his head to look at Tatyana and the rest with one of his red eyes. His deep rumbling voice echoed as he asked, "Tatyana, how about presenting me to the little princess?"

Tatyana looked at him speechless and said, "Present what? I think that it is quite hard to miss a dragon of your size."

Yasenia could swear that Tian Long was giving a 'are you serious?' gaze to her mother. He said, "I will do it myself then. Hello little princess, I'm your mom's mount. The story of how we met is quite lengthy, so let's speak about it in detail-."

Tatyana cut him, "Another day. Do you want to stay here months or something?"

Tian Long honestly said, "Yes. I don't want to return yet. I'm bored. Moreover, I want to raise little princess into a proud dragoness!"

Tatyana waved her hand, creating a 100km phantom hand above Tian Long's head and…

*BOOOM!*

She slapped the back of his head, making his giant dragon head hit the ground like a meteor and creating more destruction.

Everyone, without exception, had their mouths wide open, 'Did she just slap the giant dragon into the ground!?'
