Chapter 1053: Old Gong’s Visit.
Before they knew it, it was the eve of the expedition day. Two months were a short time, and they went by very quickly. Yasenia slowly woke up, feeling the light weight of her baby on top of her as well as her drooling. Angel was so relaxed while sleeping on top of her that it was quite normal for Yasenia to wake up with Angel's drool all over her chest.
"It has been a while since I slept like this."
Yasenia muttered, and the petite woman at her side kissed her shoulder. Looking sideways, she saw Evelyn's violet eyes looking at her with deep affection. "Well, you should sleep like this more often. Relaxing by your side like this feels incredibly refreshing."
A hand caressed her head on the other side and turning toward the owner of the hand, she saw Andrea smiling at her. "That's right, love. Rest is an essential part of a healthy routine toward becoming stronger."
Yasenia smiled and extended her arms, hugging her Dear and Darling while her tail kept Angel fixed on top of herself. "Mmm~, this feels nice… Where are Kali, Cecile, and Tatyana?"
Evelyn made small circles on Yasenia's breast with her index finger while speaking. "They've gone to prepare. It seems that Cecile and Kali wanted Tatyana to help them with a few containers."
Yasenia tilted her head. "Containers?"
Evelyn yawned and nodded, kissing Yasenia's shoulder. "That's right. Cecile says that she might discover something to strengthen herself on the Moon whatever mountains. Kali, on the other hand, is very interested in finding all kinds of exotic plant life in the Magma whatever place."
Andrea chuckled. "[Deadly Magma Cave] and [Moon Swallowing Mountain]. They are not that complicated to remember, no?"
"Too long!" Evelyn humphed.Angel opened her eyes groggily and looked up from her comfortable breast pillow. Seeing Yasenia's smiling face as soon as she woke up, a silly smile grew on her face as she spoke. "Good morning, Yasenia~."
Yasenia leaned down and kissed her forehead. "Good morning, Baby. How was sleep?"
"Great~." Angel let her face fall between Yasenia's twin peaks and took a deep breath. "Ah… Now even greater~."
Yasenia chuckled and patted Angel's naked little butt gently with her tail. Meanwhile, she asked Andrea. "So, how is that inheritance thing going? Have you discovered the name at least?"
Andrea flipped her hand, summoning a small statue on her hand. A gorgeous red statue with the shape of a person riding an unknown beast appeared, making Yasenia blink with stupefaction. "Is this the same statue I bought?"
Andrea smiled. "Yes. It changed after refining it for a long time. I think that once I make this image completely clear, I'll have a good idea of what the inheritance is about. The clearer the statue, the more knowledge I can absorb from it. For now, I learned that the [Deadly Magma Cave] is indeed where I can collect this item's inheritance for myself. Still, according to this, that place is called [Draider Hero's Tomb]."
"Draider?" Evelyn blinked. "What were his parents thinking when giving that person that name?"
Yasenia blinked twice. "What? It sounds cool!"
Andrea scratched her cheek. "I don't know if I am getting influenced or something, but… I feel the same. It doesn't sound bad at all."
Evelyn raised her eyebrows and looked at Angel. "Hey, stop slobbering all over Yasenia's tits and answer. What do you think of Draider as a name?"
Angel lifted her head and blinked twice. "Draider? It sounds cute. I can see a boy being named by that name."
Evelyn hummed and fell on her back, her eyes pondering. "It seems that this time around, my common sense was not up to par."
Yasenia burst into laughter and gathered Evelyn closer, kissing her pretty little mouth. "You are so cute, Dear. I love you."
Evelyn didn't know what she did, but a kissing attack from her dear dragoness was something she would never feel bad for receiving.
After all of them had a bit of morning fun, they wore their dresses and went out. Yasenia approached the entrance and saw many of the maids giving her looks, confusing her slightly. Usually, the looks she received were more of awe for her beauty, but today, they felt teasing.
Yasenia paused by the side of a small lake and looked at her reflection. It was then that she noticed a red kiss mark on her neck. 'Cheeky Evelyn, I'll need to punish her later.'
She didn't erase it, though. She didn't mind having kiss marks on her body. It made her feel loved instead of embarrassed—as if her lovers were telling everyone that she was theirs.
After reaching the main building's dining room, she spotted the Dan Elders eating breakfast there with someone she had never seen before. "Oh? Excuse me for intruding, Grandma Dan, Grandpa Dan. I'll come back later when you are done with your conversation with this gentleman."
The old-looking gentleman saw Yasenia, and his eyes widened slightly before returning to normal. Meanwhile, right as Yasenia was about to leave, Grandma Dan's face lit up and called Yasenia over. "Don't go! Come, come. We were about to talk with Elder Gong about you, Little Yasenia."
The dragoness smiled and decided to enter. She couldn't really refuse her invitation without appearing rude. Moreover, because of Lady Gong, Yasenia was sure that her relations with Elder Gong were not as good as they appeared. So, she wanted to make herself look good enough in front of him so that no unnecessary conflict would arise in the future. "Since Grandma Dan invited me, I can't really say no. Good morning, elders. I hope you are enjoying a delicious breakfast."
Grandma Dan smiled proudly and said to Elder Gong. "Little Yasenia cooked the breakfast you praised. She is one of the best cooks I've ever met in my life."
Elder Gong's deep but clear voice reached Yasenia, giving him a faint touch of strict discipline. "Is that so? The cake was indeed great." Looking at Yasenia, he spoke with a relatively flat tone. "You are a great cook."
Yasenia sat by Grandma Dan's side and smiled. "Thanks a lot, Elder Gong. It is the craft I've honed the most other than combat, so receiving praise from someone such as yourself feels like my efforts were not for naught."
"Flattery won't get you anywhere." Elder Gong answered somewhat rudely, making both Dan Elders frown. Yasenia's face didn't change much; she had expected something like this.
Elder Gong spoke to the Dan Elders. He hit his cane on the ground as he spoke. "I will be somewhat blunt. I do not approve of this Dragon Woman and her group's presence on the forbidden lands. I want you to reconsider before the relations between our families start deteriorating."
The one who rebutted this time around was the usually silent Grandpa Dan. "Old Gong, are you really going to do this? Little Yasenia has done nothing wrong. She has also not offended your Gong Family in any way. You are being narrow-minded and intolerant."
"Old Dan, our families might have never been allies, but we had a chance when your grandson and my great-granddaughter started seeing each other. Sadly, after this seductress appeared, your grandson seems to have lost interest in my great-granddaughter." Elder Gong looked at Yasenia up and down and snorted. "I won't let the siren who stole my great-granddaughter's lover benefit from the forbidden lands, and that's that."
Grandpa Dan shook his head. "You are being lied to, Old Gong. Since we've come to these extents, I'll say what I've been wanting to say for a while. That great-granddaughter of yours is not good. She is very manipulative."
BANG!
Elder Gong slapped the table with a loud sound. "Old Dan! Don't go too far!"
Grandpa Dan spoke, not intimidated at all. "You should know it better than me. Dan Che would've never ended up with her. Even if he did, things would've become bad during the wedding night."
Elder Gong's face cooled down completely. Yasenia knew that things were going to end up very badly if she didn't speak up right now, so she did so. "Elder Gong."
"Silence." Elder Gong glared at Yasenia and put pressure on her. With his Transcendent Realm cultivation, Yasenia felt her body being pressed from all angles with not much wiggle room. However, she neither grunted nor had a change of posture or expression.
This amazed everyone in the room. Nôv(el)B\\jnn
"Elder Gong. May I speak?"
Seeing that Yasenia was clearly resisting his pressure came as a complete surprise for Elder Gong. After a few seconds, he could feel that Yasenia was not simple, so instead of shutting her down, he spoke. "Sure. But I won't stop my pressure. The longer you speak, the stronger I'll continue pressuring."
Yasenia started speaking without delay. "Your great-granddaughter is a woman of great beauty and intelligence. However, she has been too spoiled." Yasenia felt her aura starting to fail to contain Elder Gong's pressure, so she spoke slightly faster. "Elder Gong's family is successful, which shows that your ability to raise children is sublime. However, someone has probably been-ugh." Yaenia grunted for the first time, but she quickly continued. "Been influenced by bad people. You should check her close relationships before you lose your great-granddaughter. Not in a physical, but spiritual manner."
Elder Gong saw Yasenia had stopped speaking, and he also stopped pressuring her. Yasenia took a deep breath and coughed twice, spitting some blood on her hand. By the end of her speech, Elder Gong's pressure was starting to fracture her internal organs.
Grandma Dan gently patted Yasenia's back, asking with worry. "Are you okay, Little Yasenia? Do you need healing?"
She couldn't believe that Yasenia was able to resist all that pressure. If it was her, she would've probably fainted. Yasenia smiled softly and shook her head. "I am okay. Thanks a lot, Grandma Dan."
Elder Gong observed Yasenia for a few seconds and looked at Grandpa Dan. "No wonder you value her so much."
Grandpa Dan smiled faintly. "That's not all that I admire about her. Regardless, what she said is not incorrect. Your sons and daughters have all been disciplined and are stoic individuals who have accomplished many things. Now, look at your great-granddaughter. Do you feel the same aura and stoicism of your blood? Old Gong, what Little Yasenia said is worth considering."
Old Gong paused and looked at Grandpa Dan for a long while. After that, he slowly stood up and said. "We, old folk, won't intervene. However, I won't stop others from interfering."
Yasenia smiled faintly. "As long as seniors don't interfere, I am confident."
Elder Gong raised his eyebrow and faintly smiled. "From tomorrow onwards, we'll see if those words are spoken out of confidence or arrogance."
He then turned around and left.
Yasenia sighed in relief. 'As long as the seniors don't interfere, all is good.'
