Chapter 331: To fight, or not to fight? Yasenia\'s Choice.
However, Yasenia didn\'t think that way. It wasn\'t that Yasenia was afraid, but after so many years of warring, she understood that the battlefield was unpredictable. A single mistake could cost her own or any of her lovers\' life.
Yasenia\'s mind spun, and she observed the surroundings. After moving during this whole time, the city was actually behind Jaxon\'s group, so they couldn\'t use that escape route. Their only option was to run the long distance until the forest and then use the dense vegetation to lose their trackers. \'Moreover, if they decide to chase in small groups, we can set ambushes and eliminate them in guerrilla warfare. Spiritual Sense is a thing, but its distance is not wide enough to avoid these confrontations. Even if there is a special person with twice my own spiritual Sense, I can ambush them easily in that environment.\'
The dragoness didn\'t stop thinking as she approached Cecile. The platinum-silver-haired woman looked at her lover and asked, "What\'s wrong?"
Yasenia transmitted her thoughts through her link, Cecile was mildly surprised at her decision, but she felt relief more than anything.
Meanwhile, Jaxon shouted. "Isla, this has nothing to do with you. Although our races are enemies, we can always reach small agreements. I won\'t attack this time as long as you don\'t intervene with my problems with Yasenia."
Isla didn\'t say anything, but her lack of response was more than enough for Jaxon. Isla was practically the representative of the Divines, so she couldn\'t say aloud that she wouldn\'t attack them. However, everything else, from her body language to her eyes, spoke louder than any word.
Jaxon smirked, \'It seems that Yasenia\'s disregard for her has struck a nerve, hahaha. Stupid, if she allied with Yasenia, they could fight us off rather easily. As Master said, Divines can gloss over important matters if someone slaps their faces; their ego is extremely high.\'
Isla\'s thinking was similar, \'Although I won\'t help in the beginning, after fighting for a while with their group, you will be weakened. I can strike at that moment and destroy you in one fell swoop. Is he really stupid enough to fight when a group of enemies is looking at them from so close?\'
Yasenia communicated some more things with Cecile while keeping her attention on the battlefield situation. After listening to Jaxon\'s statement, she said one last thing to Cecile and let her speak aloud. Cecile\'s cold voice spread in the area once more: "There is nothing to gain for any side. Let\'s avoid the fight, and each go our ways. Jaxon, if you want the shield back, Yasenia agrees to a one-on-one in the middle of the three groups. It is your item. What does everyone else have to do with that?"
Jaxon sneered, "Are you trying to make our numerical advantage null with that stupid bait? What do you take me for?"
Cecile directly mocked him, "I see you as an arrogant and conceited Demon, one especially stupid since your recent increase of strength has bloated your head to the bursting point. How about admitting you are afraid instead of trying to speak in circles around it?"
The beast howled and roared, many in mockery, and parroted Cecile. "That\'s right! You were deceived; take it like a cultivator!"
"You want your shield? Fight for it!"
"Stupid Demon, our leader is willing to lower to your level. You should accept since only you will die that way."
"Bahahaha, good one, brother tiger!"
Jaxon said icily, "You steal my weapon, and then you tell me to fight? As expected of a lizard, your brain is lacking. How about I also steal one of your lovers and ask you to fight for it?"
Yasenia\'s pupils thinned, yet she didn\'t show any reactions. Internally, however, some plans changed, \'I will be demon hunting for the rest of my stay in the Secret Realm, it seems.\'
Andrea shouted with a cold voice even before Yasenia or Cecile could retort. "Do you think we are wallflowers or something? I wanted to leave you with a bit of dignity, allowing you to fight against Yasenia. However, I changed my mind. Your opponent is now me, Demon."
Everyone was stunned. Although Andrea was known in the Academy, she wasn\'t known like the other same-level cultivators, Isla, Jaxon, Long Baidi, and all of those. They thought she was a nobody who interrupted the talk between the big shots. Therefore, curses rained on Andrea from those that didn\'t dare speak out sooner.
"A fucking nobody cares to speak up!?"
"Who do you think you are, whore?"
"That mouth is better be filled by a dick!"
"Speak one more time, and I\'m going to r-."
*ROOAR!*
An explosive dragon roar made many cultivators, allied or enemies, grab their ears in pain. The shockwave was extremely powerful, and the aura it carried was extremely profound.
For the first time, Yasenia began using energy seriously! That speck of Celestial Energy roiled about in her meridians, creating such pressure that all cultivators under the eighth level of the Mental-Nourishing realm couldn\'t even speak. They were too preoccupied using their cultivation not to fall to their knees!
The aura burst felt like a physical wave slammed onto them, pushing a big portion of the cultivators back. This created a place without creatures except those strong enough to resist the burst from up close. They only amounted to thirty people. Compared with the hundreds previously, the dragon roar seemed to have vacated the place around her of people.
A flash of fear crossed those demons\' eyes as Yasenia\'s gaze locked them in place. Even if Yasenia had matured, she wouldn\'t take people insulting her darling easily.
One thing was holding back because of the situation, and another was letting people walk all over them.
The only reason Yasenia wanted to avoid fighting in the first place was not to risk her dears\' safety. However, Yasenia was 100% confident she could win if a battle truly started.
Before more people pissed their pants in fear, they saw the previous woman they insulted placing her hand on the furious dragon\'s head.
Like a switch, all that aura dissipated as Yasenia turned her head to look at Andrea.
Andrea kissed her on the snout and said with a laugh, clearly amused. "Wasn\'t it our turn to be angry? They called you brainless lizard, my love. Why did it suddenly change to you being angry?"
Yasenia stood on her hind legs and extended her neck, placing her claws on Andrea\'s stomach. Then proceeded to lick Andrea\'s mouth while growling.
Of course, Andrea didn\'t dodge and happily smiled as she received her caress. She turned toward Jaxon and said, "Are you in or not? I want to spend time with her, so be quick."
Jaxon had felt a chill going up his spine when Yasenia roared angrily, so his thoughts about being stronger were slapped out of his mind. \'Fuck. What did she do to become so strong? How could she advance a whole realm in half a year!? She was in the first level during the recent tournament!\'
His strength has also made a giant leap. Not only has he entered the Unification Realm, but his Demon Bloodline has also awakened completely. His innate skills, gained after entering the Unification realm, were terribly strong.
However, when Yasenia roared, he felt small. Even if Yasenia appeared like a baby dragon, her size being very small, her aura release intimidated him more than any mountain-sized dragon he had fought until now.
Not only he, all the strongest people present felt the abyss between their strength. Yasenia had caught up in the cultivation base, and the results were much worse than they thought.
This was the reason Andrea relaxed so much. Only a stupid person would challenge their dragoness at the moment, they needed to gather information before making a move, or the results could be catastrophic.
All the leaders were smart people and understood that fighting now could mean destruction. No matter how arrogant, in front of death, people became humble unless they had a loose screw.
"Who do you think you are, Yasenia!? Do you think roaring makes you imposing!?" The man named Gerd with a loose screw shouted.
Jaxon almost kicked him flying. Although the combat was being set back, again and again, it was because of clear reasons! How could this stupid and obsessed person not see that their enemy had unnatural strength? It probably would become smaller as time went by.
Jaxon frowned. \'However, it is also true that catching her in this situation, surrounded by thousands of cultivators, will be hard once she is able to leave. We only have one month, after all.\'
He smiled, \'When something is too strong... Sometimes allies became scared of it.\'
"Isla. You\'ve felt it, and I have too. Let\'s get rid of her before she goes out of control. You\'ve fought against her and see how fast she is growing. At this pace, at most, we\'ll be outclassed in another year. I don\'t believe their small group can face off against our coordinated assault."
Isla bit her teeth in frustration. It is true that Yasenia was growing out of control faster than she thought. However, was it correct to make Yasenia their enemy? As Jaxon said, she was growing extremely fast. Yet, currently, she doesn\'t have a bad relationship with Yasenia. There were a few small disagreements, but nothing worthy of becoming enemies.
An ally worth befriending or an enemy that has to be killed at all costs. Isla had to decide which side Yasenia fell on and answer Jaxon.
On the other side, Yasenia knew that attacking Jaxon\'s group now was a good opportunity; her sudden powerful roar had destroyed their morale. If Yasenia charged as the spearhead into battle and disrupted the enemy lines, the fight would end with few casualties on her side.
If it were the pre-trial her, she would have probably gone and attacked. Nevertheless, the pre-trial her would have assumed Isla wouldn\'t interfere or even help her. Her golden eyes moved and locked on the thinking Isla.
The years of fighting had made Yasenia more careful, more cunning, and more resourceful. \'Why attack now with thousands surrounding them? There is still a month left of time inside the realm. I don\'t really care about demons, but I care about killing Jaxon and the others. The most prudent thing to do is...\'
Yasenia\'s dragon eyes flashed with a red light as she plotted their demise.
*Grrrr~.*
And well, they also flashed with pure delight as Andrea scratched her chin and horns. \'Darling is too good at this~; for the moment, let\'s leave. I want to cuddle with her.\'
After observing the attitude of all the people present, Yasenia decided to leave. "Let\'s go. We are leaving." Said the dragoness to Cecile.
Cecile conveyed her words to the others. They nodded and without saying anything, they used their movement techniques and left the area.
Valeria, Mirrory, Ebirah, and Sierra followed behind.
Before they realized what was going on, our group was already in the distance, speeding away.
Everyone looked stupefied as the group of two beast women, four women, one giant woman, one lobster, one giant wolf, and one dragon disappeared into the forest.
Laurina, Linda, Lidia, and other people close to them blinked repeatedly, and when they understood that they had left just like that, they ran after them.
"Yasenia, wait for me!"
"Munchkin, wait for your big sister!"
"Lady Yasenia, I want to speak more in-depth; please wait!"
With similar comments, a group of thirty or so left as fast, if not faster than our group. Chasing after them.
The rest looked as if they had swallowed a fly. The blatant disregard was a big hit to their pride.
However, what could they do? Chase after them?
The Unification Realm experts could do so, but while doing so, they would leave thousands of troops behind.
Jaxon and Isla didn\'t expect Yasenia, with her dragon heritage, to run away, not caring about all the beasts present. What if they suddenly decided to attack them? Wouldn\'t they all die without their leaders?
In this absurd manner, Yasenia and the others left!
