Yasenia looked around and asked. "Now, what should I do to make all of you, vermin, come out from the treasure trove I found and allow me to clean it?"
Even when she was a middle-level Ethereal Soul Body Cultivator, Ghana couldn't move under the combined pressure of all our girls.
Not to mention the aura, their faces were tarrying and looking at the group of three hundred harpies like insects about to be squashed.
However, Ghana lifted her head and managed to speak. "M-Matriarch, most of us are sincere. Please, spare us!"
Yasenia heard the strained voice and turned to look at Ghana with indifferent and cold eyes.
Those thinned vertical pupils made her gaze even more piercing, making all the harpies in the line-of-sight shudder.
The image of her carrying one of them with their faces completely smashed added to the terror Yasenia inflicted.
Yasenia said nonchalantly. "Don't worry, haven't you heard me? I said I wanted to clear the treasure trove I found, meaning all of you are my small treasure stained by some vermin. Therefore, I'll give all of you a chance."
The combination of being praised while being flattened was strangely relaxing, making a lot of the most experienced ones relax.
Yasenia commented. "We are going to allow all of you to speak, and you shall swear to not having any harmful intentions toward us. If you can't… Hehe, you don't want to know the outcome."
Yasenia said. "Ghana, we'll start from you."
Ghana felt the weight on her dissipate, but the cold and murderous eyes directed at her made her chest feel stuffy and her body as if it was soaking in ice-cold water. 'Who is the dumbass that wants to provoke these monsters!? Just their spiritual pressure can flatten all three hundred of us to the ground!'
Naturally, Ghana should have been able to support herself since all of them shared the pressure. However, they were inside the Formation area Tatyana and Angel built together.
In truth, Tatyana and Angel had spotted the person moving toward Yasenia at second zero. However, Tatyana stopped Angel from moving.
Ghana said in one breath. "I, Ghana Featherloss, swear to the Heavens that I don't want any harm to befall the Astral Sky Clan and all related individuals now or in the future, and I'm willing to work for them honestly and put my life on the line for the Astral Sky Clan's progress."
It was a comprehensive oath that stated intentions without binding Ghana to the clan. A clever and thorough oath.
The place stayed silent as they all waited for the Heavens to react. They knew that if Ghana were related to any of these powers, their chances of survival would decrease rapidly.
Yasenia waited for ten seconds. However, this small-time frame felt eternal for Ghana and the rest of the harpies.
Second, by second, ticking by as sweat covered their bodies.
Then, Yasenia's voice entered their ears. "Good. Walk back behind your assigned leader and wait there."
Ghana inhaled and sighed in relief.
Then, she stood up and honestly walked behind Tatyana. She saw that Tatyana's eyes had zero amount of surprise in them, and a thought crossed her mind. 'Was this intentional? Did they do this to fish out the troublesome ones before they became a problem?'
Ghana immediately looked at the other girls, and even if some of them had anger in their eyes, none of them had confusion or surprise in them. Ghana's heart chilled for a second. 'They truly are a bunch not to be offended.'
The other harpies saw that Ghana was pardoned, and all those who didn't have bad intentions felt like a ray of light pierced the dark clouds on the horizon.
Immediately after, most of them swore Ghana's oath and stood up individually, returning behind their assigned leaders.
Soon, only nine harpies, plus the one Yasenia was holding, were left behind.
Yasenia looked at Florrie and the other eight harpies still on the ground. Yasenia saw their eyes resentful as they looked at her. Yasenia frowned and commented aloud. "Only ten were spies? What a shame. I wanted some more of you to be spies."
Ghana had already relaxed and realized Yasenia had zero intentions of hurting them.
On the contrary, she was trying to clean up their group so that trust could be built.
Ghana wasn't the only harpy sharp enough to realize because most of the present harpies were quite intelligent.
Therefore, the brown-feathered harpy got enough courage to ask aloud. "Matriarch, why do you want more? Isn't it good to have fewer spies?"
Yasenia looked at Ghana and smirked. Her voice was calm as terrifying truths escaped her mouth. "Well, I wanted some living test subjects for Kali and Tatyana. The more, the better. After all, testing poisons, parasites, torture methods, combat skill effectiveness, and all those things will eventually break a person and make them useless. The more test subjects I have, the better, don't you think so?"
The faces of all harpies became a bit whiter, and gulps could be heard coming from many of them.
The nine harpies lying flat on the ground had their eyes widened with pure terror, and they started to struggle. "You can't do that!"
"If this knowledge is known outside, your little power will be smashed!"
"Humans! You are worse than humans! You are humans in beast skin!"
Ghana bit her lips and asked. "Matriarch, can you spare them? You can-."
Yasenia chuckled and lifted a hand to interrupt. "Let me deal with this, Ghana. I have a proposal that can help them."
Ghana nodded and heard Yasenia say. "All of you will fight against me simultaneously. If you win, you live. If you lose, you die. How is that?"
'Isn't that the same as condemning them to die?"
Yasenia felt the woman she was dragging twitch, and she threw her toward the other nine. "Ten against one. It has been a while since I fought against people with killing intent toward me, so don't hold back."
Florrie and the others felt the pressure disappear and hastily stood up. One of them approached the injured harpy and gave her a pill.
Yasenia saw the broken face mending itself and returning to normal.
Yasenia smirked and extended her hand forward.
A red core appeared out of nowhere, and a blue liquid morphed in the air, taking the form of a giant sword.
Yasenia called its name. "Draheart, we have some slicing to do."
The wide broad sword as tall as Yasenia buzzed excitedly as its aura spread in the surroundings, making all energy spin toward Yasenia.
The nature of the peak-level Heaven-ranked sword was revealed, making everyone suck in a sharp breath.
Cecile ordered with a penetrating and cold voice. "All of you, jump back."
The harpies obeyed.
Then, Tatyana communicated with Angel, and they both took out their formation pens. They scribbled runes and lines in the air at the same speed.
When [Draconic Heart] fully formed, they both muttered. "[Combat Room Formation]."
The harpies saw a complex formation they'd never seen before shine on the floor and disappear immediately.
However, they felt the change.
Ghana muttered. "The floor is much tougher?"
She stomped with strength enough to shatter an iron block, creating a loud bang. However, the previously soft floor was undamaged.
The formation masters were shocked, and their eyes shone with curiosity. Angel looked at her subordinates and smirked. "If you follow me, I'll teach you formations like these and more complex ones!"
The harpies looked at the adorable human woman that previously slammed them onto the ground with complex feelings. 'I want to pat her, squish her cheeks, and hug her. However, I also feel like flattening my body onto the dirt before her and calling her Master.'
"Thank you, senior." That was all they could think of as an answer.
Meanwhile, Yasenia looked at her opponents and smiled. "Don't hold back and stay alive. I won't be able to judge you after if you die."
The harpy that was slammed onto the ground gritted her teeth with anger. "As expected of a dragon, arrogant and stupid!"
Yasenia sneered and slashed horizontally once. "[Crescent Moon]."
A silver attack sped toward the harpy at a frightening speed.
They all blocked simultaneously, and after a loud impact sound, they negated the attack quickly.
The harpies looked surprised. One of those ten laughed. "So this is the Matriarch's strength? Such a waste, hahaha. Kill her!"

Florrie felt something wrong. 'It can't be this easy.'
However, her companions had already charged forward. She could only exclaim. "Be careful. Something is off!"
Yasenia's eyes moved toward Florrie with interest.
The ten approaching harpies took out different weapons, most of them being daggers and short swords, and one of them being an archer with a one-handed crossbow.
Yasenia's spiritual sense analyzed those weapons. 'The strongest one is at the Peak-level Earth rank level. That crossbow has some vials. From what I can guess, it should be dangerous, so let's avoid being hit by arrows.'
Yasenia's attention was on them. 'All of them are low-level Ethereal Soul Realm cultivators. A group of Unification Realm cultivators. I can't take them lightly, even though I've become much stronger. However, I should slowly increase my strength output as long as I'm not in danger.'
Yasenia activated [Empyrean Cosmos Dress] at its maximum capacity and prepared to receive them.
The first two stabbed toward her, and Yasenia moved her feet to avoid them. Right after, Yasenia felt another two slashing toward her back.
She spun and counterattacked with [Draconic Heart].
The two daggers and her sword met. Yasenia felt a strong impact, but her feet remained stationary while the two harpies staggered back.
Then, Yasenia used her horizontal swing to slash upward.
The talons of the harpy that were about to ambush her from above impacted the giant sword, and she was sent flying.
The remaining four attacked simultaneously from the four directions when Yasenia's sword still pointed upward.
Yasenia didn't lower her sword as she spun on site.
The dragoness's thick, armored tail followed her spin and blocked the four attacks.
Right then, Yasenia heard air whistling as an arrow zoomed toward her neck. Without a change of expression, she bent her body backward, and after the arrow grazed her, she spun and jumped out of the encirclement.
However, there was an extra trap!
The first four that attacked Yasenia had charged an attack and shot a destructive energy ball right at the dragoness.
The powerful energy sphere lifted the ground as it zoomed toward Yasenia.
Yasenia's eyes flashed, and as soon as she landed, she used that leg to twist her body and spin.
She spun twice mid-air and began opening her leg in the third spin.
Yasenia's leg strength had always been much higher than any other extremity.
The dragoness's long leg glowed with the energy film, leaving a trail behind as her golden eyes thinned and focused on the energy sphere.
Then, her leg gathered the spin momentum, creating a perfect arc. She completed the rotation, ripping the air apart with the built-up pressure, finally impacting against the energy sphere.
Leg and sphere collided, and time seemed to slow down.
Yasenia's leg's impact distorted the spherical form of the energy orb as her shin sunk into it.
"HAA!"
*BOOM!*
With Yasenia's shout, the energy ball was directly kicked back with much more speed and a thunderous sound.
*BOOM!*
Those four harpies received the explosion's impact, and their bodies were blasted away with various degrees of injury.
Yasenia landed as the four harpies hit the walls around the garden.
The ten assassins' faces changed as Yasenia landed on one leg with her sword pointed toward them and a smirk on her lips. "Is that all?"
The sequence of moves and perfect blocks awed many spectators. Especially that last horizontal spin kick. They could feel how the momentum of Yasenia's legs gathered and exploded onto the energy ball.
Florrie was already scared. However, she ordered. "Don't hold anything back and survive! Let's try to tire her! [Shadow Body Cultivation]!"
Florrie's body blended into the ground and disappeared. With her shout, the others also had plenty of changes, and their auras skyrocketed.
Yasenia lifted an eyebrow. "Self-boosting? I also know how to do that. [Celestial Dress], [Star Night Domain]."
Her [Empyrean Cosmos Dress]'s color changed from blue to white as the images of a sun and a Moon appeared on the lengthening skirt.
The upper part of the body climbed up Yasenia's body, creating a body-hugging and long-sleeved top.
Unlike before, since this was the semi-combination of [Empyrean Cosmos Dress] and [Celestial Dress], the previously flowy skirt was now filled with beautiful ivory scales, and there was a star-shaped hole, showing off her cleavage in the middle of the dress.
Yasenia's beauty was elevated further beyond as her aura became ethereal and mysterious.
In the same instant, [Star Night Domain] deployed, darkening her surroundings as multiple stars materialized across the whole fighting area.
This domain created countless stars that could be used to block projectiles and distance skills as well as accelerate Yasenia's Star Creation, allowing her to use Star-attributed abilities much faster and with many more stars.
When Yasenia finished deploying everything in less than a second, nine of the ten harpies appeared and attacked her from all directions.
"[Shadow Strike]."
"[Molten Fist]."
"[Thousands stabs]!"
Nine different attacks used by body cultivators approached Yasenia.
Meanwhile, Ghana and the others spectating were freaking out. 'A domain!? That's something only Epoch Core Body Cultivators can create!'
Yasenia's voice spread in the surroundings, chanting a skill she hadn't used before. "[Firmament's Battle Dance]."
She developed this skill long ago while creating the [Celestial Dress]. However, she had just recently completed it.
Yasenia's footwork became ethereal as her giant sword moved at flashing speeds around her.
*ClangClangClangCangClangClangClangClangClang!*
In less than a second, nine consecutive sounds of weapons colliding echoed as the nine harpies who received this attack were sent flying.
The archer had fired the arrow right when Yasenia and the first harpy collided to take her off-guard. However, she didn't expect Yasenia to blast everyone away from her even before the arrow arrived!
Yasenia laughed and pointed at the archer while ignoring the arrow. "[Shooting Star]."
[Star Night Domain] activated first, and the floating stars moved before the arrow, exploding and vanishing it.
Then, an enormous five-meter, white star appeared behind Yasenia, only to zoom toward the archer with blurring speed.
*BOOM!*
The body of the archer was charred and blasted away. However, the resilience of a cultivator at the harpy's level allowed her only to receive superficial burns.
Yasenia looked at them and lifted an eyebrow charmingly. "Not bad. Can you continue? I still have a lot to give."
The ten harpies felt their hearts sinking.
'Who told us she was acting strong and deceiving our sisters!? She is clearly a monster!'
