Heaven, Earth, Me

Two years sounded like a lot of time, but it was nothing but a blink of an eye for cultivators. 

During these last two years, the children made sure to spend time with their mothers while also slowly becoming independent and deciding what to do and where. Unlike Yasenia and the girls, the children's cultivation speed was not ridiculously fast. 

Yasenia and the girls used Yasenia's powerful Dual Cultivation technique to accelerate their cultivation speed many times over. So, even when the children approached 30 years old, they were still in the third realm. 

Even Dianna and Katarina, who had a headstart with their beast cultivations, were barely about to enter the fourth realm. Their talent was enormous, though, so they were miles ahead compared to others at their age. In fact, they were considered favorites in any kind of tournament with age requirements that they participated in.

Ayanduin, Gu Chen, and their family arrived at the Spatial Astral Sky Sect and spread their spiritual senses around. It was easy for them to quickly notice Yasenia floating outside the spatial sect in her dragon form. Both of them stepped outside and appeared by the side of the enormous island-sized dragon.

Yasenia didn't turn around and continued looking at the World before her. Gu Chen smiled and asked through spiritual sense. "Are you feeling reluctant to leave?"

Yasenia spoke, her voice actually reverberating through the vacuum of space due to energy. "I feel reluctant to send them off to the Sect. Now, I am going to leave for who knows how many years. Perhaps I will never see them in the flesh again." Yasenia shook her head. "If I were not feeling reluctant, I would not dare call myself their mother." 

Both Sixth Realm cultivators looked toward the planet with smiles. This part of Yasenia was what made them much less wary of the dragoness. 

At first, in their mind, this creature was cunning, heartless, ruthless, and focused on her objectives. However, that was not the truth. After interacting with her for a few years, while the dragoness would certainly ruthlessly eliminate her enemies, she would not bother with others as long as you left her alone. Furthermore, if you were nice to her and her family, she would not hesitate to lend a hand if those people needed it.

Yasenia nodded. "Andrea has managed to find some clues, so we will leave in that direction. After that, we must find something Tatyana called a [Heaven Path]. It is a place built by ancients that opens a path between Heavenly Layers. We'll cross it, and after that… Well. To the adventure, I guess. Of course, my priority is locating the Sky Continent."

Gu Chen chuckled. "That sounds quite nice. Speaking of which, you told us that the Sky Continent differs from Distancia. Like, it is a different type of world?"

Yasenia nodded. "It is considered a 'Flat' world. The planet is a layer where the Sun and Moon orbit around it, and it also has a dimensional layer to prevent the planet from, well, crumbling under its own weight. After all, if you left a giant flat layer in space, it would collapse under its own gravity into a ball, eventually." She smirked. "The planet is also exceptionally resistant. Your strength is probably enough to only blow through small hills instead of whole planets."

Ayanduin asked. "Do you think we can make a stop on one of those types of planets in our way?"

Yasenia nodded. "Not only that, I heard that this Heaven Layer, being one of the lowest ones, has mortal civilizations that have actually managed to harness enough strength to challenge peak-level Mortal Cultivators. Even you two might eat a loss if you are not careful."

Gu Chen blinked. "No way. How?"

The dragoness shrugged. "Science? If you study how to harness energy and other things like that, I can probably develop a way to create a few strong technologies. Of course, compared to what you can achieve by cultivating, it is not really worth spending so much time on it. You are just better off cultivating rather than doing all of that."

Ayanduin hummed. "Even then, it might be worth exploring if mortals can harness so much strength. Perhaps I can reap a few benefits off of it."

The dragoness blinked and turned her giant head to look at him. Gu Chen smiled, thinking that she was going to scold Ayanduin. Instead, Yasenia muttered. "Actually, that's not a bad idea. Moreover, those mortals might have cultivation resources they don't know how to harness and therefore consider useless. We might be able to cheat them off many treasures!"

Gu Chen might've fallen if he had not been floating in space. "Are you two so shameless that you would deceive mortals for profit!?"

Yasenia and Ayanduin looked at Gu Chen innocently. 

"If they have enough strength to threaten me, I won't hesitate!"

Smack!

"Ouch!"

Gu Chen smacked the dragoness's head. "Don't speak in such a self-righteous manner when speaking about scamming people!" 

Ayanduin clicked his tongue without a sound. "You are no fun, Gu Chen. Also, don't hit the little girl, or her mother will spank you back!" 

Yasenia rubbed the back of her head and humped. "That's right! That's right! If you bully me, I'll call Tatyana."

"Oh? Who's bullying you?"

Gu Chen's eyebrow trembled, and he looked back. There, the gorgeous woman with eyes as red as polished rubies stood, looking at him with a raised eyebrow. Gu Chen snorted. "Don't blame me! Your daughter was being silly."

Tatyana laughed and floated by their side. "I won't. Don't worry. However…" Tatyana gave Gu Chen a cheeky side-eye. "You better not act silly when you meet me, or you might fly through a few planets."

Gu Chen raised his hands in surrender. "I am sorry, okay?"

Tatyana laughed. "I am joking. A bit of bantering is good." 

Yasenia blinked. 'Joking? I don't buy it.' She placed her hands together and prayed for Gu Chen's safety, making the Sixth Realm cultivator's eyelids tremble. 

Both of them knew Tatyana was far beyond them when it came to strength, so they respected her. Ayanduin asked. "So, what are you here for?"

Tatyana looked at Yasenia and smiled. "Love, it is time. Everything and everyone is prepared."

Yasenia blinked. "Already?"

Ayanduin commented. "Say, Tatyana. Aren't you afraid that when the Forgotten Star Area starts deteriorating, the cultivators there might come to this world en masse and cause chaos?"

Tatyana answered nonchalantly. "That's an inevitable thing. If I had half a century or more, perhaps I could manage to fix your Forgotten Star Area's formation, aiding that Heaven to heal slowly instead of decay slowly. However, I am not going to lose that much time on that. I've left a few formation books that touch on that subject, though. Perhaps in the future, a savior will appear and fix it. However, that's a story that won't be told here and something for the far future."

Ayanduin blinked. "Told here? What do you mean."

Tatyana shrugged with a smirk. "Who knows?" Tatyana looked at Distancia and smiled. "Just know that Distancia's chapter is closed, and the future is in the hands of those living here."

Yasenia nodded and turned around, moving through space and landing on an outer area created to receive people. It was 62,500 square kilometers, or 250 times 250-kilometer area—more than enough for Yasenia to land comfortably. 

This area was considered the main "port" of the Spatial Astral Sky Sect, with many other smaller ones spread around it. 

The dragon, which looked more like a mountain chain due to her dimensions, slowly started to shrink as she allowed Cosmic Energy to exit her body. In just a few minutes, the dragoness returned to being "just" a mountain-sized dragon over three kilometers long.

Gu Chen blinked and asked. "Don't you feel more comfortable at this size? Your other size honestly feels like too much."

Yasenia answered while shaking her own body to clean off the space dust. "Out in space, I prefer my larger form. Down in a World, I like this form more." 

Then, she walked toward the [Profound Skeletal World Jumping Warship]. 

She saw her children in the distance, all running toward her while wearing robes that allowed them to breathe and move in space for short amounts of time. 

"Mommy!"

Yasenia smiled and lowered her head. All the children threw themselves at her. They had already said goodbye to their other mothers, and now they wanted to bid Yasenia farewell as well.

"Mommy, you must be careful!"

"Right! You also need to avoid making too many brothers and sisters so that you don't forget us!"

"Take care of Mama as well!"

The dragoness gently moved her head, rubbing against them. "I love all of you more than the World. Take care of yourselves, and be sure that no one bullies you. If you find someone you love, make sure that they are someone worthy, okay? Trust and never hiding things from the other party is the best way to keep a relationship healthy and lasting." 

The children nodded seriously. Their mothers were their role models, so they understood what it meant to have a good relationship. Skye smiled widely and said, "I won't marry unless I find someone as good as Mommy!"

Evelyn at the back teared up. "My daughter will stay a virgin for the rest of her life. What a tragedy!"

Yasenia's tail sneaked around, moving a few kilometers, and smacked Evelyn with impressive precision.

BANG!

"Wahhhh!"

The children blinked and looked over. They couldn't help but feel speechless after they saw Evelyn flying off into the void of space, 

Skye coughed. "Mommy, will she come back?"

Yasenia blinked. "I don't know… Well, it doesn't matter much. I'll pick her up when we mount in the ship." 

The children felt somewhat speechless once again. 'What do you mean by "I don't know"!? That's your lover!'

Yasenia smiled. "Leaving aside unimportant matters. Remember that while trying things is good, it is better to be master of something than mediocre at everything, okay? Learn as many things as you can without falling into mediocrity." 

Dawn hummed. "Is that why Mommy hasn't been actively trying to increase your [Blacksmithing Intent]?"

Yasenia nodded with a smile. "That's right. While I love blacksmithing, I know that I can spend that time better by cultivating or trying to understand other things."

The dragoness raised her head slowly, giving them time to stop latching onto her. Of course, Dianna and Katarina were still hugging her face even when she had raised her head. Yasenia chuckled. "What are you two doing, babies? Let go, love."

"I love you, Mommy!"

"I love you."

Dianna and Katarina released their grip after giving Yasenia a big kiss, falling down from above. The relatively lackluster gravity gently pulled them down. 

After that, Yasenia looked at the group of almost 100 people that were leaving with her.

The dragoness jumped into the ship, transforming into her human form by the time she landed. Evelyn arrived at this moment, landing right by her side with a smile. "I am back~."

Yasenia placed her arm around her shoulder and kissed her head. Then, she ordered. "Depart!"

The Skeletal Warship pulsed with profound energy and flashed into the distance, leaving Distancia behind. 

The children looked at the small dot for a long time even after it disappeared before Kaleina patted their heads and smiled. "Let's go back inside." 

They all nodded and moved together with their maids.
