Chapter 627. A Dragoness Cleaning Her Sect.

Yasenia focused on Cultivation and the sect's management initial phase for the next three months.

Like what she did with the Astral Sky Clan, Yasenia created a system allowing the power to run autonomously. 

This time, even when the power was many times bigger and there were many more powers to talk to, it was much more manageable.

Three factors contributed to this speed and ease. 

The first, Yasenia gave her girls more responsibilities. Cecile and the others might not be as capable as Yasenia when it came to management, but in their respective specialties, they didn't lack anything. 

So, Alchemy, Tailoring, Blacksmithing, Formations, and Military decisions were given entirely to them, with Yasenia just having to supervise the results and plans. 

The second reason was the maids. With fifty capable subordinates, the girls and Yasenia processed everything speedily and learned with the maids. 

Their guidance, advice, and effectiveness were impressive.

Finally, the third and arguably most important factor was Tatyana's, Mirrory's, and Valeria's change from a passive to an active stance. 

The three seniors didn't take leadership positions, but they didn't hold back when giving advice, teaching them fighting, and other types of knowledge. 

All of this, and with their finances supported by the Parus mine, the Astral Sky Sect spread its roots and grew tall enough to be noticed in the forest of powers.

It was to the point that Yasenia received a letter from the Nine Sects to meet with their leaders.

Yasenia was holding that letter and reading it. 

She leaned back on her comfortable chair and muttered. "They want me to participate in the Sect Tournament a few years from now…" Yasenia frowned. "Strange… the date is not written in the letter. They only told me it would be at least seven years into the future."

Yasenia came to a realization. "Oh. They must not tell the date exactly so that those sects that do not accept have a hard time finding the real date…" 

Yasenia got thoughtful. "Should we become a Nine sect? The prestige you receive with that title is something I've experienced, and it's really tempting. But…" 

Yasenia's eyes shone strangely. "How about swallowing them? Is that too greedy?" 

However, her intentions disappeared right away. "Either way, I'll eventually leave this place. It's not worth the effort. I'll just strengthen the foundation of this sect so that it remains for a long time after I leave. The next sect master should decide if they want to join or not."

Yasenia took another letter and opened it.

After reading it, her lips arched in a sneer. "Do they still think they can bully me as they like? Hahaha."

During the last three months, a few disciples acted arrogantly, trying to flaunt their "nobility." Moreover, a few elders were also punished for bending their backs to them, but no elders were killed because the offense was not worthy of such punishment.

Yasenia didn't intervene at first and saw how others cleaned those who wanted to cheat the system she placed.

Our dragoness didn't intervene to observe the loyalty of the high-rankings and to wed out any rotten bug who sneaked into the core of her sect.

Thankfully, after her display with the beasts, the loyalty of the high-elders was firm. 

So, after waiting for the first month and seeing that the sect wouldn't need her to be too watchful, Yasenia intervened herself and was ruthless. 

Those who committed any major crime were punished with the same crime they committed, but worse. 

If they killed? They were publicly tortured to death.

If they raped? They were attacked by beasts in front of the crowd until they died.

If they stole? All their properties were seized, and they were forced to run naked around the entire sect for a week. Those who disobeyed were killed on the spot. 

Finally, those who didn't follow the rules about using the Sect's establishments or similar were killed or exiled into the beast-swamped forests depending on the offense. 

Yasenia's ruthless heart when leading a power, an attitude inherited and taught from her mother and internalized during the more than two decades of brutal War in the trial, was revealed to the full force now that she didn't care about the outside. 

The heavy punishment coming from the dragoness shook the entire sect and those outside the sect.

After all, Yasenia didn't make any effort to hide what she was doing in her sect. Of course, this began a chain of reactions from families outside, demanding explanations. 

After all, Yasenia punished everyone regardless of background.

Even then, those inside the sect became obedient and didn't dare make a sound. Nobody left for one reason.

Benefits! 

Yasenia had basically built a paradise for cultivation. Moreover, the energy concentration in this mountain basin was incomparable to the outside, thanks to the energy that poured down from the Sky Continent.

The surrounding forest grew natural treasures, the mountains spawned strong minerals, and the sect had divided sections of the nearby forest to make hunting as safe as possible while controlling that too strong people don't go to one area and disrupt nature.

For example, if an Ethereal Soul Cultivator wanted low-level materials, they needed to create a mission for low-level disciples or go outside the Sect's borders, creating an internal economy that fed on itself while forcing wealthy cultivators to pay the juniors. 

Rates, mission rewards, difficulty, and much more were handled by the system Yasenia built with her subordinates. 

In short, everything was intricately bonded, and there was even an expansion model for when higher-level treasures began appearing, and the surroundings naturally grew in strength.

According to Tatyana's estimation, if everything worked correctly, the sect could last hundreds of thousands of years only by following the general outline they created. 

To say that this place was one of the best in the entire Distancia Continent was not an exaggeration. 

However, those outside the sect didn't really know and became outraged.

Yasenia became thoughtful when she received letters from all those powers that demanded an explanation for killing their juniors. "What to do... Hm, most powers that protested are second-rate ones… As I expected, powers begin flocking and trying to peck at me whenever you begin with the heavy hand. Should I destroy one of them to warn the others?"

Yasenia looked at the three cards different from the others and read the names of the clans. "Five Shadow Fangs, Steel Back Wolves, and Desert Sand Garuda."

Yasenia pondered, her golden eyes calculating the best way to deal with them. 

After a few seconds, Yasenia's lips arched in a sinister smile. "Five Shadow Fangs… They have been touching my nerves for a while already…" 

During these last years, things have been quite complicated because the Five Shadow Fangs have been meddling with her business, making it challenging to buy some things. 

Yasenia remembered the leader of that clan she had seen in the tournament. 'That old woman was strong, very close to a middle-level Epoch Core, but…'

A red light flashed deep within the dragoness's golden slit eyes as the War Intent excitedly trembled, knowing what was about to come. 

'It's about time I make you disappear together with those small powers who abused my precious fan girls.' 

Her mind flashed with the scene of Velvet and Zaria dying in her arms, and her bloodthirst peaked. She opened a communication device and spoke with a freezingly cold tone. "Alaia, prepare one thousand cultivators with Clara. All must be a high-level Ethereal soul realm and above. Leave Selena, Leila, Flora, and ten maids to manage the sect while we are away. We are going to make a few people disappear." 

Alaia's excited voice was heard from the other side. "Yes, young miss! We are delighted to be led to battle by young miss!" 

The dragoness wrote a letter back to the Steel Back Wolves and Desert Sand Garudas, and not taking into account the flowery language, it said as such. 

"Respected Power, 

I am writing this letter to let you know about the shameful behavior of your juniors. I wouldn't punish them this hard if they hadn't broken the rules. However, they have hurt their senior and junior sisters and brothers physically and emotionally repeatedly after being warned. If you want to speak to me face to face, we can decide on a date five years from now. Lately, my workload has been high, and I do not intend to attend to unimportant matters. 

Hoping you expectantly await my arrival at your front gates, Sect Master of the Astral Sky Sect, Yasenia Dravory."

The other letters she wrote to weaker powers were similar, but she didn't tell them to wait and just told them to, putting it lightly, swallow the offense or deal with the consequences.

Then, she chose a few harpies to deliver them. 

Diplomacy was something done when two powers were of a similar level. If your power had enough strength to decimate the other, it was not a conversation between equals. 

Yasenia knew how to act restrained, but she also knew when she had to push and stomp her feet to give a warning.

And now, it was time for the dragon to stomp her feet and make herself known. 

By the way, her relationship with the harpies had greatly improved over the years, but there was an invisible barrier that previously didn't exist.

Besides that thin barrier in Yasenia's heart, how Yasenia treated the harpies at the beginning and now was not that much different.

The only thing they didn't see since that day was Yasenia playfully having physical contact with them.

They clearly noticed this, and some were a bit bitter about it. However, they were happy that Yasenia finally smiled at them again. 

Ghana entered the room to take the letters. "Yasenia, who do I choose to send them?"

Yasenia looked at her and chuckled. "I don't know. You choose. After all these years, this kind of thing should not be asked. Just inform me who you choose after you decide. I trust you this much."

Ghana smiled and then nodded. "You are right."

Yasenia lifted an eyebrow and asked directly. "What, are you still uncomfortable about something?"

Ghana shook her head and smiled, feeling slightly lonely but strangely relaxed. 'Well, this is good enough…'

The dragoness nodded and asked. "Anything you need to report?"

Ghana thought and finally shook her head. "No. Don't worry. There isn't anything important enough."

Yasenia blinked. "And what unimportant stuff is going on?"

Ghana smiled. "Don't worry, it is under control."

Yasenia looked at her for a second and smiled. "Sure, go ahead. Remember to deliver the Wolf Clan and Garuda Clan letters last."

Once Ghana left, Yasenia pondered about it for a second and chose to use the formation covering the entire sect and look at what Ghana had been doing. 

She had told them that because the basin was too large, the recording functions back in the Astral Sky Clan didn't work. 

But it was a lie. 

The ones who knew and had access to these functions were her girls and the maids. Esther and the Five Beast Heirs were also included with limited access.

With the [Transcendent Ranked Formation Core] as a nucleus, not to mention one, covering and feeding ten areas like this Mountain Basin was not that complicated. 

Either way, Yasenia selected Ghana and looked at what she had been doing during the last few days, just in case. 

Trusting someone was one thing, and trusting that same someone after they showed strange behavior was another completely different thing. 

****************************************************************

Tatyana: The clogs of Fate have started to move~. Where will they lead my little treasure? 

Author: We'll see~. Anyway, I summon you!

WPOmega: Hello, girls.

Kali: Welcome again~.

WPOmega: So, well, this is a question for someone we haven't seen in a while.

Author: Oh? Who?

WPOmega: Dr. Ava! 

Tatyana: Ho? Avalonia?

WPOmega: Yes.

Author: Well, let's summon her.

Dr. Ava: Hm? Where am I? 

Tatyana: Yo, Avalonia.

Dr. Ava: Hello, Lady Tatyana. Where are we?

Tatyana: It's difficult to explain… Do you see this person?

Dr. Ava: Yes, my eyesight has not deteriorated as much as your sanity.

Tatyana: …

Yasenia: Hahaha, Aunt Avalonia, can you answer his question? Then, we will be able to return.

Dr. Ava: Oh dear, you are here too, Yassy? Well, if you have gained the trust of Yasenia, I'll answer it. Ask away.

WPOmega: Can a futa and a woman, or two futas, produce male offspring, or would all the children be either futa or pure female?

Dr. Ava: Excuse me, child, but what is a "futa"? 

WPOmega: Oh, someone like Yasenia or Andrea, a person with a functional penis and a vagina. 

Dr. Ava: I see. Let's start with two hermaphrodites, or Futa, as you call them. 

WPOmega: Okay!

Dr. Ava: There are many factors, but one of the most notable ones depends a lot on the constitution of the two partners. 

Dr. Ava: For example, if the Yang-attributed partner is the dominant one, the result will tend toward being a hermaphrodite or male. There are even cases when a child with just a penis but also female breasts can be produced. 

Dr. Ava: If the dominant party is Yin-attributed, the results tilt toward Female or hermaphrodite, with strange cases of having a male body but a vagina instead of a penis. 

Dr. Ava: If both have similar levels, the results are mostly hermaphrodites. 

WPOmega: I see.

Dr. Ava: Then, Futa and females always tend toward females unless the hermaphrodite has dominant genes.

Dr. Ava: This question feels targeted toward Yasenia's offspring, right?

WPOmega: Well…

Dr. Ava: Yasenia's offspring will be mostly hermaphrodite with some pure females because of the balancing factor of her Yin and Yang constitution and her dominant bloodline. Yassy having a pure male offspring will be very strange.

Yasenia: Oh… I wanted a baby boy to pamper…

Dr. Ava: It's not impossible, so if you mate enough, it will eventually happen.

*Yasenia looks at the girls.*

*The girls felt their bodies and wombs twitching for some reason.* 

Author: And that's all for today's chapter! See you later~.
