Heaven, Earth, Me

Chapter 289: Two Weeks, Twenty Years.

Then, a flash of sadness appeared in her golden slit eyes, "I will somewhat miss them… However, everything I\'ve learned will live forever inside of me. Moreover, no matter how much I like them, my dears are waiting for me. They are and will be the most important."

After waking up from their daze, many people present looked at Yasenia and tried to feel her strength.

However, when their senses tried to sense her spiritual aura, it felt like it sunk into a powerful, dense, and deep pool, sending a chill up their spines.

Even though they could tell that her current level was that of a level-nine, almost half-step, Mental Nourishing realm cultivator, the feeling she gave was horrifying. There were two general thoughts.

\'Who is this monster in human skin!?\'

\'How did this monster improve so much?!\'

The charming mature woman, Yasenia, felt her heart\'s excitement growing the more she thought about Angel, Andrea, Cecile, Evelyn, Tatyana, and Kali. \'I really missed them. I want to find them as soon as possible, but first, I need to digest my gains. Moreover, I have to advance the [Convergence of the Celestial Bodies] technique that I\'ve been stuck on for a while.\'

Yasenia got thoughtful, \'Since I\'ve already gained insight. The only thing left is breaking the barriers. I also have to see if all the things I learned during these years carry to my real self.\'

However, there was something that had changed inside Yasenia. The number of years she lived on the illusion took a toll on her, making her forget some things. It wasn\'t that she would forget with the powerful mind that she had, but she had lived in that illusion for a long time, making the memories of the time before blurry.

Therefore, when she looked around and spotted Han Xue, she frowned. \'Hmm? Who is she? Her face looks extremely familiar….\'

Meanwhile, Long Baidi and Tang Xian hid in the crowd and looked closely at Yasenia. They didn\'t know why she suddenly appeared there, but it was something good for them. \'Anyway, it is good that she is here. We will be able to get rid of her. Moreover, with the Mayoress on our side, she will only be in deeper trouble... eh?\'

Their eyes widened when Han Xue approached Yasenia with a smile, giving off a clear, familiar vibe. Everyone was about to speak about it when she suddenly heard Yasenia ask. "Do I know you?"

Han Xue\'s steps froze as her eyes widened, "Do you not remember me?"

Yasenia looked at her closely, and then, it came to her. Her face eased as a smile spread on her lips, "You are the Mayoress of the town, Han Xue. I\'m sorry for momentarily forgetting about you. My memories are somewhat blurry."

This time, it was Han Xue\'s time to be confused. She asked, "Why are you outside, Yasenia? Only two weeks have gone by! Did you really manage to pass the Trial? Or was the other girl the winner?"

This time, her words were like a rock being thrown into a calm lake.

"Huh? What do you mean!?"

"She entered the Trial before us!?"

"Impossible. Why would she? Did you lie to us, Mayoress!?"

"So the two people that appeared had entered the Trial before?"

The other woman, who was trying to make herself as small as possible, froze, \'Crap, there is no way I won\'t be noticed now.\'

Of course, Tang Xian\'s and Long Baidi\'s faces darkened. \'She played us! How dare a mortal play us like a fool!?\'

Yasenia looked at Han Xue and smiled bitterly. "Two weeks… More like twenty-three years."

Han Xue\'s eyes widened, but Yasenia recovered instantly and said, her tone returning to normal. "Anyway, yes, I managed to complete it. It was very hard, but I could do it in the end. I was really scared that the other person would complete it."

As she spoke, Yasenia\'s gaze moved in the direction the other pillar shot up.

The woman there was looking at her with a worried frown. She had good facial features, her beauty radiating that next-door girl feeling. Yasenia wouldn\'t forget about the brown-haired, honey-colored-eyed possessed woman, "Sarah? So you were the mysterious person that entered before me…."

Sarah laughed awkwardly and tried to explain, "L-Listen to me, Yasenia, I-"

Yasenia cut her off, "Don\'t speak or make excuses. You lied to me, and you kept another thing from me. I told you, the thing I hate the most are liars. Now, after my experiences, this thought has only solidified."

Sarah\'s eyes widened as she stumbled with her words, "Huh? Wait! D-Don\'t take it that seriously! We- I- it was just a coincidence I managed to find out about it!"

Yasenia smirked, "Was it also a coincidence you lied about the number of Points?"

Sarah asked the System, \'System! What happened!? How did she complete the Trial in such a short amount of time? I thought I would have two weeks of advantage! Moreover, we were almost done with the Trial, just two days, and I would\'ve completed it!\'

[Host. Even if you ask me, I don\'t know how to answer. I was with you the entire time. But this is bad, how about you try to ask her to give you the reward? It is too good of a reward to lose it just like that.]

Sarah frowned and thought about it, \'Will she give it to me? I\'m not that close to her.\'

[You can always exchange it for another treasure. Your Shop Points have increased a lot during the Trial, so you should be able to buy something she wants. Moreover, she won\'t be able to use that treasure efficiently as you.]

Sarah began sweating, \'Should I really?\' Sarah remembered that Yasenia had let go of the scroll rather easily, so she opened her mouth, about to try her luck again.

However, Yasenia cut her off, "Stop speaking. I have important things to do, and I don\'t want to lose my time arguing with you, especially not when people are shouting so much."

Sarah\'s mouth dropped. \'Did she just say I don\'t have time?\'

The people that had been ignored became even angrier and shouted more. One of them even rushed toward Yasenia, sword in hand. "Fucking whore! Do not look down on me!"

The slash and attack were so fast that Han Xue couldn\'t react. If it were an attack aimed at her, the protection would activate automatically, but it wasn\'t.

However, she didn\'t have to worry since, for Yasenia, it went extremely slow. \'Poor posture, poor technique, low strength, low speed.\'

Yasenia coldly looked at him and coldly spat, "Weak."

Her body leaned slightly, dodging that sword strike with a hair\'s breadth, and then her tail, in blunt form, lashed like a whip three times, hitting him straight in the middle of the back, leg, and waist.

*BANG!*

A deafening sound exploded through the hall, followed by a body rolling on the floor without control, his limbs and back bent and sunk in ways no human should have.

It smashed against the wall with brutal force and splattered them with blood.

However, the people around reacted not in awe but angered, persisting in the previous issue. This time, most of the shouts were directed at Han Xue.

"What is the meaning of this!?"

"Do you think you can do as you like!?"

"We haven\'t even begun the Trial, and someone is getting out of it already?"

"Right! How did they know about it sooner than us!?"

"I demand an explanation!"

The crowd became rowdy and bombarded Han Xue with questions.

Han Xue acted calmly, but she was internally frowning. \'Couldn\'t she have completed it a day before? I wouldn\'t have to do the announcement that way.\'

She was getting overwhelmed because no matter how strong a mortal\'s psyche was, they would not be able to resist so many cultivators shouting at them.

However, Yasenia was getting annoyed and also wouldn\'t let anybody bully her as it was because of her that she could finish the Trial before Sarah.

A profound aura spread from her as she calmly uttered a single word, "Silence."

Even If her voice was calm and her tone normal. The word literally boomed in their heads like a hammer. Some even grabbed their heads in pain.

The noisy hall turned silent in less than three seconds. All the eyes focused on Yasenia with a wide array of emotions.

Yasenia calmly at the hundreds of cultivators and said, "Why are you asking her when it was I who found out about the Trial first? She didn\'t have anything to do with this as I found it thanks to my treasure sense."

At that moment, a man and a woman walked out of the crowd.

The man was extremely handsome, with long black hair, an angular face, and robes that conservatively showed off his physique. He was tall, and his sword-like brows and deep eyes gave him a piercing look that would accelerate the heartbeat of almost any woman he looked at.

The beautiful woman complimented the man perfectly, with a slender and perfect body. Her blonde hair, dark eyes, and long white robe gave her a feeling of holiness. However, it wasn\'t a feeling of innocence but the feeling of majesty that accompanied this divine aura.

Their aura was powerful as the air around them moved in strange patterns, making people feel respect.

Yasenia looked at them and narrowed her eyes for a second. Then, she muttered, \'Unification Realm Cultivators. But why are they using a technique to create those strange unharmful patterns? Is it a cosmetic technique? I should be careful in case it hides something more.\'

The man smiled and said, "To think we would meet with the Heavenly Dragoness here. My name is Long Baidi. Nice to meet you."

The woman spoke next, her voice soothing and ethereal, "My name is Tang Xian. You did a great job, Yasenia. Since you were the one that managed to complete the Trial, you must have received a treasure. Now, give us the reward you got."

The people around looked at them and began commenting. "The holy son and daughter have appeared!"

"They are the future of the junior generation. No matter how strong the Heavenly dragoness is, she doesn\'t compare with them!"

"To be able to contribute her treasures to them, the Heavenly Dragoness sure is lucky!"

"Holy Son, please look at me!"

"Holy Daughter! You are as beautiful as the stars. No matter what you need, I will come to your aid!"

Similar shouts spread in the big hall.

After listening to those two and then the surrounding cultivators, Yasenia asked herself seriously. \'Are they all brainwashed? Or are they all stupid?\'
