Heaven, Earth, Me
Chapter 1229. Talks About Traveling to an Upper Heavenly Layer.

After they left the colosseum, Yasenia’s daughters glanced at their mother curiously. She had been in a thoughtful mood since her strange behavior in the arena. After all, knowing their mother, she wouldn’t interrupt their fights just because. Whatever the reason, the other side had come to ambush and harm them. Yasenia would try to push the matter to the limit before letting them go scot-free. 

Of course, Kaleina, Skye, and Estrella's display of power was enough to scare all of them and even scar a few of them. But it was nowhere near the level of punishment Yasenia usually used on those who touched them.

Kaleina stepped forward, hugging one of Yasenia’s arms. “Mommy?”

Yasenia blinked and turned to look at her eldest. “Yes, love? Sorry, I was spacing out.”

“Yeah. That’s the problem!” Kaleina pouted. “If you have something in mind, you can tell us!”

Yasenia smiled faintly. “Well… It’s nothing serious.” Seeing the somewhat worried faces of her babies, Yasenia’s lips formed a gentle curve. “Don’t be so worried, babies. Mommy will become stressed if you show me those faces.”

They looked at each other and then all rushed forward, squishing Yasenia in the middle of a group hug. “Mommy, we love you!”

Yasenia was surprised, but she soon laughed. “Oh dear. I love you all as well, babies.”

A hammer of wholesomeness suddenly struck the people walking on the street, and some clutched their hearts. ‘Such a happy family! Argh, the envy! The fluffiness! I am going to die from a sweetness overdose!’

“Little Treasure!”

Yasenia and the children looked over at the person calling, and they spotted a large group of beauties coming over. Yasenia couldn’t help but appreciate her dears and the maids. They looked like goddesses that had descended from the sky to stroll in mortal lands. 

Yasenia was held down in the group hug, so she could only answer with a call of her own. “Tatyana, dears, why are all of you here?”

Tatyana smiled, her red eyes showing rare softness and peace. “We have recovered from our romp in the sheets, so we now want to spend time with you.”

Yasenia glanced around and chuckled. “Quite a large group. We are over 200 people, quite crowded, hahaha.”

Yasenia’s maids numbered 50, and then, adding Sierra, the other servants, and our girls, the number neared 70. Then, the maids of each of the daughters numbered 20. Seven daughters, twenty each, the total number of people in the group easily exceeded 200 individuals. 

Looking at her daughter’s maids, Yasenia noticed that she didn’t miss anyone. ‘All the maids followed them? There have been no deserters, betrayers, or anything similar? That’s quite impressive.’ 

Unlike her own maids, who were trained for many years, the ones they chose to serve their daughters went through a crash course in the real deal. Hence, expecting them to be perfectly loyal was a stretch. Yet, it seemed that either because of her daughters’ charm or charisma, the maids decided to follow them as a group. 

It was, naturally, a wise choice. After all, as Estrella and the others became stronger and more influential, even if they fell behind in strength, that initial connection would always give them an advantage. 

“So…” Evelyn stepped forward and asked. “What’s our plan?”

Yasenia glanced at Evelyn for a few moments. The average and plain girl was not completely gone. Having reached Transcendence, her facial features had achieved mortal perfection without losing the essence of who she was. She had angled and sharp eyes, but with an innate playfulness impossible to miss. The faint arc on her lips added to her mischievous side. However, if Evelyn made a serious look, she would look elegant, beautiful, and imposing. 

Evelyn saw Yasenia glance at her for a little while and asked, her violet eyes showing inquiry. “What’s wrong, love?”

Yasenia chuckled. “I was just admiring my beautiful Dear.”

Evelyn laughed softly and smirked. “I am still nothing compared to you, love. Even when you reduce your charm as you have, there are people who can’t look away.”

Yasenia snorted. “As if. They are charmed by our group more than by me individually. And if you think otherwise, I’ll spank you later until your butt is swollen and red!”

Evelyn answered with a serious face. “I think otherwise!”

Skye facepalmed. “My mother is an irremediable pervert.” She then smirked. “Thankfully, I’ve inherited Mommy’s body type. Being a washboard in a family full of mountainous peaks must be quite torturous.”

Kaleina, Evelyn, and Katarina looked down simultaneously, their lips twitching. Cecile patted her daughter’s head. “There, there. Your body is agile and pretty. Mother is also not that big.”

Katarina pouted. “But… Why am I smaller than you when I am yours and Mommy’s daughter? I should be in the middle! I have a Dragon bloodline! Being a C Cup doesn’t make sense!”

Kaleina muttered. “At least you are a C… I am stuck at B with Mama Evelyn. And I am a bona fide dragon! I don’t understand…”

Yasenia looked at Angel and spoke. “Mirrory, got a moment?”

Mirrory appeared from nowhere, and unlike her spirit self, she looked much more material. Angel was able to manifest a very small part of her true body, so she could finally manifest physically like Valeria. She also gained the ability to store energy herself instead of being forced to use Angel’s energy. Her energy storage was not that large yet, though.

The red-haired, green-eyed, curvaceous woman asked, curious. “What's wrong, Yasenia?” 

Yasenia pondered for a second before blurting it out. After all, she didn’t want to hide anything from her loved ones. “How do we delay my summoning to the higher heaven? I felt a small pull before, and according to the strength of it compared to the previous day, I say I have just a month before I can’t really resist.”

Everyone was silent. The maids looked at Yasenia and sighed. ‘Just a month…’

Now that Yasenia was finally pregnant, all the conditions Yasenia had placed on herself were finally fulfilled. They could finally feel their mistress’s love to the full extent! However, that annoying Moon Goddess had to do something in her last moments, making their happy future days become grim once more. 

Mirrory closed her eyes, searching her mind for knowledge related to that. “It’s not that there are no ways. However, they are usually accompanied by a punishment. After all, resisting by yourself is your right. Heaven will just slowly increase the pulling power until you are inevitably summoned. It also gives cultivators a chance to prepare. Otherwise, they might be sent up and fall into a perilous situation without being prepared.”

“Before you give her the methods…” Andrea paused behind Yasenia, hugging her from her back and placing her chin on her shoulder. Her hands rested on Yasenia’s belly, caressing the soft flesh there tenderly. ”... When one is sent up, do they land in certain locations? Or is it random?”

Mirrory looked toward the Heaven Converging City Center. “If you go through one of those, the location is randomly fixed.” 

“Huh?” Andrea blinked.

Mirrory smiled. “That formation sends you to different locations. Still, the number of locations is limited. So, while random, it is also a fixed point. The reason for that is that different powers control the powerful formation. Therefore, to be fair to everyone and not have fights for talented cultivators flare up each time someone rushes up, they decided to just set it to random.”

“Wait.” Yasenia frowned. “Doesn’t that mean that all cultivators who go up without a power will be forced to join one?”

Mirrory blinked. “Naturally. If you have enough strength, you can try escaping. However, being tied to a power for a few decades or centuries before gaining freedom is a way for them to gain free labor. The time frame can also be reduced with certain accomplishments, so talented individuals will be freed much earlier. However, it all depends on the power.”

Yasenia scratched her head. “That sounds annoying.” 

Tatyana saw the faces of the girls and smirked. “You girls don’t have to worry. I’ve already sent Yasenia’s maids to all 76 teleporting locations of this formation. Once you appear, you will be welcomed by them.” Her lips arched coldly. “And if anyone doesn’t understand that the Death Empress is looking for you, then they might not have any reason to continue existing.”

Valeria bonked Tatyana’s head. “Don’t be so murderous. You now have a daughter and need to set an example!” 

Tatyana blinked innocently. “But I am trying to do that…”

Everyone deadpanned while Estrella nodded twice. “I like how Mama Tatyana thinks.”

“As I was saying,” Mirrory chuckled. “While ascending through formations will give you a set location, being forced by Heaven will not. Still, the randomness is not utterly chaotic. Heaven won’t send you to the middle of a star and kill you. The locations you are sent to are within its control and usually safe, or in the middle of nowhere. There are times when the heavenly ascension interlocks with a formation ascension, and you fall into one of those fixed locations of that particular Heavenly Layer. It is rare, though.”

Yasenia listened and sighed again. “So, I’ll have to pray and hope I just don’t fall into a place where I will be in danger.”

Everyone looked at her with worry. They didn’t want their dragoness to go through anything bad before they found her. Noticing the atmosphere around them, Yasenia clapped her hands once to disperse the strange atmosphere. “Well, dears. Let’s not care about that. How about we start exploring Heaven Converging City? I have not been here for years, so I want to see interesting places! Let’s have a family outing!”

Seeing her enthusiastic demeanor, everyone smiled and also dispelled their gloomy mood. Then, Yasenia and company moved through the city while talking with each other. As they observed a peculiar shop full of interesting gadgets, Yasenia heard the voice of someone familiar. 

“Oh? Yasenia?”

Looking sideways, the dragoness saw Long Tianyi’s surprised face. Yasenia didn’t really resent her for not telling her about the trial. After all, it was something that Ancestor Long ordered her to do. Still, she wasn’t completely unaffected by it. Therefore, she just answered formally. “Lady Long Tianyi, what a coincidence.” 

Hearing that way of calling her, Long Tianyi flinched before smiling reluctantly. “Y-Yeah. What a coincidence.”
