Chapter 694: Yasenia\'s Tyrannical Presence.
However, her current inclination was to escape with her human lovers, mainly because the four human beasts were still eyeing her like predators.
When she was about to choose, a string of messages popped in front of her eyes.
[Ding! A new urgent mission was initiated. "The Celestial Dragoness Wrath"]
[Ding! The enemy has been analyzed to an initial level, and the name will not be blurred anymore. Further encounters will allow the system to understand Yasenia Dravory further.]
[Mission Description: Instead of making Yasenia Dravory fall in love with you, you have managed to anger her to the point that she treats you like a <Mortal Enemy.> While many have angered Yasenia Dravory in the past, not many angered her to the point that she wanted their death as much as yours. You need to survive after damaging her enough or defeat her to show her that you are not a person who would flee in front of adversity.]
[Mission Summary: Yasenia Dravory has been angered due to your response to her. Her strength is unfathomable, and she is the strongest opponent you have yet to fight.]
[Clear Condition 1: Survive the encounter against Yasenia Dravory while damaging her more than 40% and escape with your life.]
[Clear Condition 2: Survive the encounter against Yasenia Dravory for one hour and escape with your life.]

[Failure: Unknown.]
[Penalties to rewards: Death of a lover. For each lover that dies, rewards will be lowered by twenty percent. If five lovers die, you will automatically fail the mission.]

[Lovers: Lea, Lilliana (Dead), Astarea, Soraia, Bai Ling, Su Lin Shi]
[System Hint: If you fight alone and answer to her challenge, the chances of Yasenia\'s partners interfering will lower.]
[System Hint: Use precautions against T&@#ana Dr#&%ry.]
[System Hint: Buy <Formation Destruction Bead>.]
[System Hint: Don\'t hold back anything.]
All these messages appeared in Sarah\'s mind in less than a second, making her feel overwhelmed. \'W-What?\'
After she read and assimilated them, Sarah\'s heart raced, her body tensed, and her intense feelings soared. \'If I defeat her, forget about any other rewards, my cultivation level will skyrocket to the seventh level of the Dantian Spiritualization Realm? Moreover, I\'ll gain the <Weapon Mastery> I\'ve been so eager to buy…\'
Sarah bit her lips, thinking if the rewards were worth the risk. \'Well, can\'t I always flee if I see there is too much danger? The failure conditions are unknown, though… What does that mean?\'
It was the first time a quest of this magnitude had appeared besides Yasenia\'s capture mission many years ago.
Sarah looked at the slowly approaching dragoness, who had crossed twenty of the 200 meters between them with unhurried but heavy steps. \'Fighting her for an hour shouldn\'t be that complicated with the system items help, right?\' No matter how strong, she is in the eighth level while I\'m a half-step. The distance between a half-step and a level nine is already enormous, not to mention if we compare it to an eighth level. Furthermore, both of us can fight above our level, so Yasenia\'s usual advantages should be gone.\'
Sarah suddenly shouted. "Yasenia, I accept your challenge. However, this is between you and me! Do not touch those outside our conflict!"
The dragoness stopped walking, a flash of wicked joy that nobody caught flashing in her emotionless eyes.
Because Yasenia had nothing against Sarah\'s lovers besides feeling slightly resentful toward Lea, who lied in that situation and previously angered Angel, she spoke emotionlessly. "The only people I can influence here are Angel and Tatyana. The rest can do as they please."
Sarah\'s heart jumped when the system hint worked. \'It\'s possible! System, buy a…\' Sarah looked at her saved 112,000 Shop points and the costly 100,000 points <High-level Formation Destruction Bead>. Then, she muttered. \'Buy a <Mid-Level Formation Destruction Bead>. I need to save 75,000 Points for later and save the remaining 27,000 for emergencies.\'
[Ding! You\'ve bought a <Mid-Level Formation Destruction Bead> for 10,000 Points.]
The dragoness and Sarah moved to the side and looked at each other.
On the other side, three groups had formed.
Sarah\'s beast human ex-lovers.
Sarah\'s human lovers.
Yasenia\'s group.
Du Xian was still angered at Sarah\'s previous attack when she was not that involved, so she had kept her resentment in check until now. \'The moment they start fighting, I\'ll go give her human lovers a bit of a taste of what I went through. Don\'t blame me for being ruthless, Human. You should face the consequences since you didn\'t care and involved me in this mess.\'
Then, she whispered. "Du Lian, follow me later."
Her husband nodded coldly.
The four beast humans also decided not to take action for now, but their anger wasn\'t only directed at Sarah. After all, the ones who deceived them of their identities were all of the human lovers.
Laurina stood beside Angel, not knowing what to do but being alert and helping her little sister Yasenia if needed. \'You can do it, little sister! I\'m cheering on you!\' Her emerald draconic eyes admired Yasenia while she made little gestures to cheer her on.
Tatyana restrained her thoughts of slaughtering all of Sarah\'s lovers to demoralize her and waited, deciding to observe Yasenia\'s fight closely. \'If Little Treasure starts to lose the fight or is in danger because of strange system shenanigans, I can be more prepared. It is better to wait than being mid-fight and failing to protect her because of that.\'
Angel thought similarly. \'Mirrory, help me keep an eye on Du Xian. Although I\'m a bit jealous, it is rare for Yasenia to make non-romantic friends. Losing her would make her unhappy.\'
Mirrory easily agreed. So, Angel focused on the fight between her dearest dragoness and Sarah.
Sarah summoned her [Elemental Spirit Splitting Sword], the low-level Transcendent Ranked Weapon she gained back when she got the Golden Key.
The beautiful sword shone because of its sharpness, and Yasenia squinted. \'That sword can cut through my scales.\'
Sarah saw Yasenia focusing on her sword to the point that her face shifted slightly and her lips arched. \'She is afraid of the sword.\'
Then, the human woman heard Yasenia\'s cold and threatening voice. "Sarah, prepare yourself. I\'m not holding back."
Thinking that she needed to resist or even beat Yasenia, Sarah also didn\'t hide any cards and used one of her most vital skills, her only innate skill, [Primal Element Mastery].
Sarah was naturally not weak as the system gave her many rewards over the years and increased her initial elemental mastery and spirit connection.
[Primal Element Mastery] was a skill that increased all her physical attributes, elemental control, elemental damage, and general perception for each element she controlled. In her case, with a quintuple-attributed physique, the power-up was immense.
Five colored lights representing Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth burst from her, making her long brown hair flutter as her power multiplied.
Angel\'s expression became severe as the strength increase of that skill was extreme. She didn\'t have a skill that boosted her personal power as much. Even her [Crimson Heart Surge], her innate berserk skill, was a step behind in terms of self-strengthening. Of course, it compensated with many other buffs, but Angel had to admit that [Primal Element Mastery] was powerful. \'This won\'t be a walk in the park, it seems.\'
However, as if to respond to the impactful self-strengthening, an aura that appeared to swallow the sky burst on the other side of the battlefield.
Sarah\'s eyes widened as many messages began appearing while her opponent\'s aura seemingly expanded without end.
[Ding! Yasenia Dravory has used <Monarch Intent Level Two>. Your strength is suppressed by her, and your attributes are reduced.]
Sarah felt a wave of pressure hitting her, making her heart constrict.
Another aura burst expanded from the dragoness.
[Ding! Yasenia Dravory has used <War Intent Level Two>. Your strength is suppressed by her, and your attributes are reduced.]
And another one.
[Ding! Yasenia Dravory has used <Empyrean Dragon Regal Aura>. Your strength is suppressed by her, and your attributes are reduced.]
And another one.
[Ding! Yasenia Dravory has unleashed her bloodline pressure <Progenitor Queen: Empyrean Cosmos Dragon>. Your bloodline level is overwhelmingly inferior to hers, and your attributes are reduced.]
And another one.
[Ding! Yasenia Dravory has unleashed her constitution pressure <Unique Constitution: Celestial Yin and Yang Body>. Your constitution is overwhelmingly inferior to hers, and your attributes are reduced.]
And another one.
[Ding! Yasenia Dravory has unleashed her soul pressure, <Quasi-Transcendent Soul Pressure>. Your Soul is overwhelmingly inferior to hers, and your attributes are reduced.]
Then, one final aura burst spread around them, engulfing every other aura Yasenia had unleashed and enhancing them while making a phantom Celestial Blue Star surrounded by a beautiful black disk filled with stars and constellations appear above them.
[Ding! Yasenia Dravory has unleashed her Unique attribute <C@l$@#ial At#&!b$%e>. Your attributes are significantly reduced.]
Sarah\'s mind almost collapsed when the entirety of what Yasenia had released slammed on her.
She felt small, so insignificantly small that she took a step back as Yasenia\'s slit eyes locked on her.
[Ding! <Heart Demon Pill> is in effect. Mental strength will be reinvigorated.]
Sarah took a deep breath, as if she was drowning in air, and hastily checked her stats. Her eyes widened stupidly as her attributes had been reduced by at least 20%, which was absurd when the person facing her was two levels below her cultivation-wise.
Just with her presence, Yasenia had weakened her enemy by a fifth!
Yasenia\'s tsunami-like aura didn\'t just hit Sarah. It spread around like a tide and swallowed everyone, making them feel like a primordial beast had suddenly manifested right before their eyes.
Astarea, one of the human lovers, muttered incredulously the feeling the others couldn\'t clearly put into words. "What kind of creature is she?"
Bai Ling\'s heart also dropped. \'No wonder I couldn\'t read her. That\'s not something the heaven\'s intended to create.\'
Not to mention the humans, the four beast-human ex-lovers, forgot about their enmity as their eyes got glued to the Empyrean dragoness, and their most basic instincts almost overtook them.
\'So beautiful.\' Lana was completely mesmerized.
\'Such a mighty presence.\' Dorian was awe-struck, unable to look away.
\'If people knew, her progeny would be sought after by everyone.\' Harmony felt her body heat up as it naturally reacted.
\'Making her an enemy was a mistake.\' Paledora tried to remain rational, but her straightened dog ears and stiff tail told her emotions very clearly.
Even if it were temporary, if Sarah were to look at their affection toward Yasenia right then, it would\'ve shown a big 100 for a few seconds before they snapped out of it.
Without speaking another word, Yasenia strongly took one step forward, making the ground shriek under the weight of her pressure, and while leaning forward and slowly pushing against the ground, her voice echoed for thousands of meters around.
