Chapter 595: Small and Big fights. Encountering Danger.
Author Note: TRIGGER WARNING WITH MILD SPOILERS. YOU CAN SKIP TO THE "*****" BELOW IF YOU DON'T WANT TO KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THE FOLLOWING THREE CHAPTERS. I REALLY RECOMND IT.
So, first of all, don't worry because these kinds of "heavy mistakes" behavior won't be recurrent at all! It will happen very occasionally, if at all.
I'm also writing this because of the reaction of a few of you dears to Tengliu's situation.
This story is mainly about a very strong dragoness who wants to find her place in the cultivation world while protecting her family, not about an emotional dragon that always commits mistakes.
Rember that, compared to the age they will reach, they are still in their forties. So, if there will be mistakes, it is now, when they are young, and they still don't know any better, hahaha.
Anyway, that said, if you want to read without knowing the spoiler of the next... three? Chapters, and go in blind, go ahead. I personally recomnd it, and I also recomnd taking a deep breath before comnting, hahaha.
If not, here it is the spoiler and summary of chapters 596, 597, 598.
I really recomnd skipping the small spoilers.
Are you going to read the small spoiler?
Well, if you are sure, here it is. If not, skip to below the "*****"
_____________________________________________________
Tsk, so you've decided to read? Silly dear.
Anyway, Yasenia will act emotionally because Tatyana is acting too serious and doesn't explain anything. She is worried about the person she loves the most being hurt and just wants to see and observe from a safe distance. Well, lo and behold, her asurent of "safe distance" will not be good enough, and she will get caught right when she is preparing to leave the area where she should not be present in the first place.
Things will escalate and will go awry. Heavy wounds all around, and Tatyana is almost crippled. After the fact, Yasenia is scolded harshly, and the seniors address her main faulty trait, and she also learns another valuable lesson.
The Pa****ns were miffed about the events, but the resolution made them very satisfied, and many agreed that it was quite nice to read, although it made them quite mad for a few days before reading the result, hahaha.
Either way, I hope you like it. Much love and hugs~.

********************************************************************************************
After flying for a short while, Yasenia spotted a place to land near the mines. She descended carefully, mindful of potential hidden threats, and landed without problems.
The terrain trembled slightly at the weight of the massive creature, but it was hard enough not to be depressed by her weight, even though it had a brown and earthly appearance, like that of a forest.
Yasenia gently urged. "Dears, please jump off from my back. Also, be careful, it is a bit high."
Evelyn laughed. "Are you telling Unification Realm experts to be careful from jumping from a height of a few tens of ters?"
Yasenia turned her massive head by twisting her neck to look at them and pouted. "You must be careful either way!"
Evelyn floated in front of her face and kissed her snout. "Silly."
They all leaped off easily and gracefully landed on the ground. As Yasenia's cultivation grew, her size also increased with it.
Evelyn summoned Sierra, and Andrea did the sa with Ebirah.
After Yasenia confird they had leaped off, she transford back into her human form. The process was quick, and in a few seconds, she went from the massive dragon back to her human form.
Tatyana praised. "Your control has co a long way. Soon, you'll be able to start half-transforming."
Evelyn chuckled perversely. "Dragon di-."
BANG!
The tail lash sent her spiraling in a graceful arc and slamd her against a tall and robust tree at the side.
Andrea snorted a laugh. "You deserve it. Have you forgotten who is with us?"
Yasenia felt a long serpent-like creature crawling around her body and smiled. "How was the journey on Mommy's back, dear?"
Kaleina giggled, her length already reaching one and a half ters. "Very fun! I loved it~. Mommy is super beautiful and fast in her dragon form!" Gesturing with her claws, Kaleina continued. "You like, woosh! Like, like, super-fast!"
Yasenia softly kissed her face with a laugh. "Glad you liked it."
Kaleina asked curiously as her golden eyes looked at the returning Evelyn. "Why did sotis you slap Mama Evelyn, Mommy? You hit her so hard that she flew!"
Angel laughed, and Kali comnted. "She was being a bad girl, so your Mommy punished her."
Kaleina nodded and accepted it quickly. "I see."
Andrea comnted. "Let's get moving. We don't know what kind of dangers are around here."
They all nodded and walked toward the mines.
Yasenia chuckled a bit and explained to the little dragoness further. "As Mama Kali said, she was about to say sothing bad. So, Mommy punished her before she said it. You must also be a good girl, okay, dear?"
Kaleina nodded cutely and then asked timidly. "W-Will you also hit
like that?"
Yasenia was quick to deny it. "Of course not, dear. Rember that your Mama Evelyn is very tough, so a hit like that feels like this."
Yasenia tapped Kaleina's forehead softly, making her exclaim out of reflex. But feeling nothing, her reptilian and soft eyes blinked twice. "Oh! It doesn't hurt!"
Yasenia and the others laughed.
Evelyn smirked. "As your Mommy said, even if she slaps , she knows how to control her strength. Look, my forehead is not even red."
Kaleina nodded and smiled. "That's good! Hurting family is bad!"
Evelyn asked in a hidden manner. "About that… Can we?"
Yasenia sighed and placed one arm over Evelyn's shoulders. "Silly dear, why would I say no? Just rember not to say those things with Kaleina present."
Evelyn placed her head on Yasenia's wide side breast and smiled. "En!"
Yasenia saw a one-ter-long quadrupedal brown furry beast appearing and growling at them. She focused on it and saw that it was a very young beast.
The dragoness eyes flashed. "Oh! What a good chance. Kaleina, love, do you want to fight?"
Kaleina looked at the beast and blinked. "Prey?"
Yasenia chuckled. "Yes. But be careful. This little one will fight back and try to hurt you."
Kaleina slithered off Yasenia's body and approached it, her pupils thinning.
While Kaleina approached, Yasenia looked to the side and felt a powerful aura approaching. 'Hm? The parent of this child?'
"Sweetheart, can you deal with it until Kaleina finishes her fight?"
Cecile nodded indifferently. "Easily."
Cecile's wings flapped, and her body beca a silvery streak, followed by explosions and fighting.
anwhile, Kaleina stopped before the bast that looked like a large rat, her throat making growling sounds as her body tensed.
The other small animal felt danger and tensed, baring a row of sharp teeth toward Kaleina.
Kali muttered. "Oh? That's a [Rock crushing Rat]. Those teeth are quite characteristic."
Yasenia muttered. "That species has quite a strong bite, can they pierce Kaleina's scales?"
Kaleina jumped forward with agility, surprising the rat. However, the other beast dodged to the side with a burst of speed.
Both beasts were young, so their speed was not that high. However, they were quicker than most mortal creatures.
Kaleina didn't chase mindlessly and regained her pouncing form.
Then, she pounced again when she saw a chance, but the agile rat dodged most of the ti and sotis attacked back, trying to bite her.
However, her agility was much higher, so it was easy for her to dodge.
She patiently waited and attacked repeatedly.
Then, she made a thing her Mommy taught her: a feint.
The clever Kaleina moved forward again, but she didn't jump.
The rat dodged, expecting an attack, and jumped to the side. Kaleina's eyes flashed as she pounced rcilessly and opened her mouth. As a young dragon, she already had a row of sharp teeth that could pierce tough at.
The young one-ter-long rat tried to dodge quickly, showing that it had strong reflexes.
However, it suddenly saw a strange purple aura lock on its left frontal leg, making it feel as if sothing had grabbed it. It was a tiny spatial distortion that made space thicker and, thus, helped immobilize.
Kaleina didn't lose the chance, and, like in the spars with Yasenia's tail, she pounced right toward the throat and bit strongly.
For the first ti, Kaleina felt her teeth sinking into the flesh of a creature as the taste of blood filled her mouth. However, unlike what others might expect, Kaleina didn't feel anything strange or had strong emotions besides the feeling of success.
With a squeak of pain, the rat moved its head violently and unlatched Kaleina. Yet, this attack was definitive for their fight, as a large chunk of at was ripped by the strong jaws of the infant dragoness.
Kali asked. "Do we stop her?"
Yasenia shook her head. "Of course not. This is her first prey. Allow her to finish it off."
Andrea frowned. "Won't she beco too bloodthirsty?"
Yasenia looked at Andrea with a smile. "The psyche of a dragon is very different. The stimuli this gives are similar to a human child solving a puzzle."
Hence, they didn't move, and Kaleina cornered her prey, coiling around it and biting the neck again.
The young rat thrashed around, but Kaleina didn't release it, her claws sinking into the flesh and her teeth deeply inserted to the point she touched bone.
Slowly, the creature stopped moving, and soon, it dropped dead.
Yasenia appeared by their side, and Kaleina looked upward with a broad smile and a bloodied mouth. "Mommy, I did it! I did it! I hunted my first prey!"
Yasenia leaned down and used a handkerchief to clean the blood. "You did super well, love. My baby is the most talented~. I've recorded it, and we'll see it together once we return to learn where you could've done better. Okay?"
Kaleina climbed up Yasenia's arm and coiled around her neck, licking Yasenia's cheek gently. "Okay~."
Yasenia pecked her mouth and smiled. "I love you."
Kaleina giggled happily and hugged her Mommy's head. "I love you more!"
The group moved forward, and the others didn't exaggerate their praise, knowing that excessive praise was also wrong.
Yasenia's complints were more than enough to feed positivity.
Cecile returned monts later, her face thoughtful. "Tatyana, this beast was a bit strange."
Tatyana blinked. "How so?"
Cecile comnted. "Well, it had deformities, and the scent on it is… strange? No… more like ominous."
Tatyana blinked and asked. "Have you collected the corpse?"
Cecile waved her hand, and a massive rat, about ten ters long without including the tail, appeared in front of them.
Kaleina's eyes opened widely. "Wow! Mama Cecile, did you hunt this one?"
Cecile's usual indifferent face gained a faint smile. "Yes, I did."
Kaleina praised. "Mama Cecile is so strong!"
Cecile softly chuckled, but their attention soon turned toward Tatyana as her aura changed.
They looked at her and saw her face gaining a solemn expression as a faint killing intent leaked from her.
Mirrory and Valeria summoned themselves without Angel's or Kali's order and floated beside Tatyana, looking at the giant rat.
Yasenia asked, worried. "What's wrong?"
Tatyana ignored her while her gaze suddenly locked toward a distant place on their right. "That way, right?"
Yasenia beca a bit nervous. 'What is happening?'
Valeria and Mirrory looked at the sa place where Tatyana looked. Valeria confird it. "Yes."
Mirrory spoke with a voice that left no room for arguing. "Children, go. Yasenia, carry Angel on your back at all tis. I'll need to absorb her energy, and she might beco weak depending on the situation."
Valeria taped the ground, and the surrounding forest slowly transford into an army of creatures. Then, her usually gentle voice echoed with an authoritative tone. "Protect them."
Yasenia was confused as the hundreds of plant creatures around them took defensive positions. Her heart beca anxious, fearing for Tatyana. "Mom, what's wrong!?"
Tatyana was about to answer, but suddenly, a faint sickening aura was felt by all of them.
Yasenia and the other girls felt their bodies shivering as a chill rushed up their spine. Thankfully, Kaleina wasn't affected because you had to have so level of strength to feel it.
Tatyana clicked her tongue and hastily said, not answering the worried Yasenia. "Later!"
Then, the three seniors beca a streak of light and flew into the distance with massive booms because of their speed.
Yasenia was about to chase, but the faint aura beca turbulent as if excited by the three people approaching, and a malicious and deford aura washed all of them.
All their hair stood up as a deep soul-level terror swallowed their bodies.
Yasenia was much better thanks to her strong will tempered in the trial and powerful bloodline. So, her worry for Tatyana increased. 'Tsk, what should I do?'
Of them, the one affected the most was Kali. She gagged and almost threw up, as she was the closest to Nature, and this aura was very disgusting.
However, her face gained an involuntary scowl of anger even though she didn't know where these feeling was coming from. "What is that abomination!?"
When the aura hit this second ti, Yasenia was prepared and used her own aura to protect Kaleina, just in case.
The dragoness shook her head and was about to comfort Kali, when, a giant explosion that made the earth tremble occurred.
This was just the first one of many, though.
Explosions that could be seen from where they stood began appearing in that place a few tens of kiloters away.
The dragoness beca even more anxious. 'I need to help Mom.'
Yasenia gave Kaleina to Andrea. "Andrea, go. I'm going to give it a look. All of you should not co and protect Kaleina."
Evelyn warned and grabbed Yasenia's hand. "Yasenia, that's beyond our strength!"
Yasenia nodded but looked a bit hasty. "I know. Don't worry. I'll watch from a safe distance first. I will co back if-."
BAAANG!
Their heads turned toward the small mushroom cloud.
Yasenia left one last sentence before flashing toward that place. "Either way, go!"
Then, Yasenia sprinted toward the combat area.
Andrea and the others wanted to follow for a second, but…
SCREEECH!!!
An unholy shriek that created visible airwaves made their steps pause as the energy burst from them to protect Kaleina.
Evelyn and Sierra trembled, feeling sowhat familiar and unfamiliar with the terrific aura. 'This is similar to that thing we saw in the Secret realm!'
Cecile was worried for Yasenia, but she ordered. "Yasenia's ntal orders: Ebirah, enter Andrea's soul. Evelyn, carry Angel. I will fly above us to spot danger faster. Sierra, return to Evelyn's soul unless we start combat. The direction Mirrory pointed at is completely safe, so we should be leaving."
They all quickly left.
A few monts later, they all saw Cecile's face paling as she looked back with a worried gaze.
Kali asked urgently as they ran. "What's wrong, Cecile?"
Cecile muttered. "Don't worry, Yasenia's feelings were too intense. She will probably leave soon and co to us. Let's maintain a constant speed. From what I've felt from Yasenia, we will only be burdens even if we go."
Angel suddenly groaned, and her body beca soft on Andrea's back. "Ugh, Mirrory is absorbing a lot of energy."
Hearing this, they all sped away toward the direction the seniors pointed at.
If even Mirrory was going all out, this was more than serious.
