Chapter 337: Chapter 337. Facing off against Lu Hao.
A group of ten people was walking in the Volcanic area. It was made of seven men and three women, all of them human. The leader of the group was a man named Lu Hao.
This person was from the Heavenly Sect. However, unlike most disciples from that sect that followed righteousness and had a heart that leaned on justice, he was a scum that managed to get admitted into the sect because of his connections.
His father was a teacher of a high order, his grandfather was a powerful elder, his elder sister was a talented woman, and his mother was the beauty of her generation.
Of course, a woman and man like them could not give birth to an ugly person, so he was very handsome. Black long hair, straight eyebrows, a tall body, and an angular face. If it weren't because his body being less trained than usual, he would also have a perfect muscular body as his father did.
However, unlike the strict upbringing a family like theirs normally had, he was pampered because of the mother's difficulties when giving birth to him. When a child is indulged without restraint, the result, most of the time, is someone unafraid of consequences. Something that, in powerful families, happens more often than not.
Lu Hao walked with one arm massaging the butt of one of the three women. She was a lover of his, a willing lover, so the others didn't have any problem.
The place they were walking had tall rocks, so their visibility was low. It was like a mountain path leading upwards.
That woman suddenly felt Lu Hao stopping and looked at him strangely.
This lover of hers was a pervert that had even once taken her in public. She didn't mind because his family was extremely powerful, and she wanted to gain his favor. However, she heard that he was scolded quite badly after that event. Yet, all the punishment he received was not being allowed outside for a month. The woman snorted in her mind, 'Talk about spoiling rotten a person.'
Anyway, the woman looked at him strangely because he didn't just stop that misbehaving hand, but his whole body froze like stone.
The woman hugged his side and smiled, "What's wrong, young master Lu? Are you unsatisfied with this one's body?"
But the moment she hugged him close, she realized that the man was trembling and sweating. She frowned, feeling that something was wrong, and said aloud. "All of you, stop. Young master Lu is feeling unwell."
Some of them secretly tsked their tongues, thinking this was another excuse to stop and have a good time. However, when their eyes landed on Lu Hao, they realized they were wrong.
The man called Lu Hao was trembling like a newborn calf. His face was pale, his teeth chattering, and his body dripped with cold sweat. He looked around, scared, and said aloud. "I-I don't know why, but I feel like something scary is coming. I feel like a wild beast has locked its eyes on me."
The ten of them frowned. What kind of beast could create a reaction like this one?
However, his reaction was so unnatural that they decided to believe him and take out their weapons, just in case. Moreover, Lu Hao was the strongest at the peak of the Mental Nourishing Realm. If he was afraid, the enemy should be strong.
High on alert, they waited for whatever was coming to appear.
After a whole minute of a tense atmosphere, they heard steps coming from behind a tall rock at the side. They all turned and prepared to attack.
Nevertheless, what appeared from behind the large boulder was a two-tailed fox-woman and a small starry-blue dragon.
The fox-woman appeared harmless, and the feeling around her was that of gentle beauty. A veil covered her face, but her figure approached perfection. An hourglass figure that made the three women present look very lacking.
Her long chestnut-colored hair and the two big and fluffy fox ears on top of her head flickered from time to time, giving the gentle beauty a cute and playful undertone.
Even the three women couldn't help but feel that this woman must be an unmatched beauty under her veil.
Then, their eyes landed on the dragon on her side, and their eyes widened.
Although almost fifteen thousand people saw Yasenia's awakening, compared with the more than two million that entered the secret realm, it was honestly a small portion.
Not even one percent of the cultivators running around the realm knew about the happenings near the Lost Town.
Therefore, when they saw the peerlessly beautiful beast, they couldn't help but gasp in admiration. Her starry-blue scales, the images of the Moon and Sun on each of its wings, and the noble and elegant way of walking.
Everything made a person think that a piece of the night sky decided to take a dragon form and appear before them.
Looking at how close that majestic creature walked beside the fox-woman, they thought it was her contracted beast, making the fox-woman appear even more mysterious.
However, no matter how beautiful and majestic the dragon appeared, it was very small compared to other dragons.
One of the men, feeling envy at the woman being able to get such a contracted beast, mocked Yasenia. "Miss, are you sure you want to keep that Baby Dragon? No matter how beautiful, it may die accidentally if there is a battle!"
A friend of his supported his claim with a laugh. "Hahaha, we should be careful of the baby dragon; its teeth may have already grown."
The gentle aura around the fox woman cooled down, and even though they couldn't see her face behind the white veil, they knew that she was angry at their remarks.
Meanwhile, Lu Hao was confused. 'Why did I feel that much fear of them? They look harmless.'
Moreover, after they appeared, he lost that feeling of fear, as if it had evaporated. He felt annoyed because he had shown quite an embarrassing side, so his gaze changed from a fearful one to an angered one.
They saw the dragon turn her head and speak with the woman. However, it only made growls and similar sounds; hence, they couldn't understand.
The fox-woman's aura relaxed, and then, they saw her hand landing on the dragon's head and caressing her softly. The care in that gesture was clear to anyone spectating. Finally, they heard her voice, "Don't worry, I know what we came here to, so I won't do anything rash."
Her voice was melodious, gentle, and intoxicating. Just listening to her felt like a mother calling her child; cozy, warm, and pleasant. Moreover, her voice carried tender feelings that would make anyone's day better.
The dragon went on its hind legs to give her a lick under the veil. That gesture moved the veil slightly, revealing a small portion of her chin. However, unlike the smooth and tender skin they expected to see, they saw scars running across her chin.
The three women that were feeling even more inferior after hearing that nature-like, gentle voice, smirked slightly. 'So she is deformed; that's why she has a veil.'
Even the men's fluttering feelings stopped after knowing that there was a deformed face behind the veil. No matter what, appearances were important for most cultivators and mortals. You may have good feelings toward people with severe deformities, but most of the time, you won't usually see them as potential partners.
Lu Hao asked with an angered tone, "Were you the one that used the intimidation spell before? Be careful how you answer, or you will suffer."
Kali chuckled softly and said, "I wasn't. It was my lovely dragoness that got angered. Did it feel scary? Did you feel... desperation?" Although her tone was light, the others couldn't help but feel uncomfortable.
Lu Hao was too angered to hear the strange undertone, so he snarled. "You dare!? I order you to kill your beast in front of me, or else, your family outside will bear the consequences!"
Kali's voice had amusement in it, "My family? They abandoned me quite a while ago, so that threat is quite ineffective. How about you try again?"
Lu Hao looked coldly at Kali and said, "Good, you want a threat? I see you like that beast quite a bit. How about forcing you to see how other beasts devour her?"
Kali laughed aloud, "You want to force another beast to kill her? Were your eyes eaten by a dog or something? How about you take a look at her."
Yasenia's eyes were filled with disdain, but she didn't say anything. She had only walked out with Kali to be her emotional support facing her assaulter. She felt that even though Kali was speaking nonchalantly, the hand that was caressing her head was slightly trembling.
That's why Yasenia just nuzzled Kali and caressed her back.
Before Lu Hao could speak further, Kali suddenly asked. "You, the one from the Heavenly Sect. Do you recognize me?"
Although she didn't say names, it was clear who she was talking to.
Lu Hao snorted, "I don't. If you take off your veil and show the ugly face behind, maybe I would."
Kali hummed, "You don't recognize my body shape? My hair color?"
Lu Hao had never met with a fox beast-human, so he frowned and asked, "I've never met with a fox-kin, especially not a two-tailed one. I would certainly remember!"
Kali got thoughtful as her hand traveled Yasenia's horns, head, and jaw. Yasenia's purring was low and deep, but it was very comforting. Even in this situation, she had the impulse to hug her dragoness, 'So cute~.'
Lu Hao saw that Kali wasn't even looking at him and asked. "Woman, what is this all about? You come here and start asking random questions. Now you ignore me as you play with that filthy beast. Who do you think you are to behave like that in my presence!?"
A soft laugh came from the woman. Her head turned toward Lu Hao, "Who am I? That's a question for you to answer, a question you must answer, a question that I need you to answer."
They observed a wisp of black smoke coming from her body right after finishing her sentence, and their faces grimaced. The Heart Demon's aura gave an extremely sickening feeling to any cultivator, so they couldn't help but recoil one step.
However, the dragon appeared unafraid as it nuzzled her face on the woman's stomach and growled softly. As soon as the fox-woman looked down, that strange black aura disappeared, "Don't worry, love. It was just a momentary disruption. It won't happen again."
Kali looked at Lu Hao again and asked directly. "Let's give you a hint, shall we? I'm from the Academy."
Lu Hao snorted, "I'm done with you. You keep asking strange questions and mocking me. Go to Hell!"
Then, he shot toward Kali at extremely high speed. Kali commented, "Angry because of some words and now you want to kill me? I'm so afraid~."
Kali took out her wooden sword and swung it against his.
*BANG!*
A body flew backward for ten meters, but it wasn't the fox-woman who flew back; it was Lu Hao. Moreover, they saw that Lu Hao's low-level Heaven-grade sword had a small dent that was fixed by itself shortly after.
Lu Hao's lover approached hastily and asked, "Are you okay?" However, her words came to a stop as she saw that his wrist was swollen red and purple. 'His wrist broke with just one clash with the fox-kin!?'
"So weak. I had to control my strength not to blow your arm into pieces." Kali's words fell into their ears like a hammer to their hearts.
