"What did you do?" Yueying noticed some rooms appearing here and there.

"Accommodations?" Aiko tilted her head cutely.

"..." Yueying wanted to pinch her juicy cheeks a bit more, but she held it in. "For what?" She tilted her head.

"I will be staying here for a bit, since it's safe and far away from anyone disturbing me." Aiko shrugged.

"There will be Cultivators coming..." Yueying pursed her lips.

"Huh? Why?" Aiko blinked, feeling completely flabbergasted.

"Because the Qi in this place spiked, so they will be trying to climb it for cultivation." Yueying shrugged.

Aiko clicked her tongue. "Yanyan will stay and watch them. I need to repair my Cauldron since someone-!" She stared at Yueying. "Cracked the top half!"

Yueying awkwardly laughed. "Let's do that." It was true that she did it, since she didn't think that she would grow so strong so quickly...

"Hmpf." Aiko snorted unhappily. 'Just you wait! I will get smothered again!' For some reason, she obtained a new fetish after being smothered by Yueying a few times.

'Cute...' Yueying liked Aiko's cute expressions.

"Princess..." Yanyan quietly cried out.

"You will get to keep their Treasures." Yueying narrowed her eyes.

"I will go watch immediately!" Yanyan didn't have all that many Treasures, since she was in her Princess faction.

That faction was often abused and not favoured, so she had very little in terms of resources.

This was a good opportunity to fill her pockets and be of use to her Princess!

Yueying sighed. Everyone was so simple-minded, but she couldn't really hate them.

They were kind to her and helped her many times, so she would indulge them here and there.

Dragons didn't really like to nuzzle, but Yueying kind of missed that feeling.

That was also why she didn't mind Aiko doing those things, since it made her feel wanted again.

She had no intention of doing that to other Dragons, well, maybe Yanyan was fine, but others absolutely weren't!

They didn't protect her during the ritual and just plotted and plotted, just because her parents were famous for calming the floods of 37 Heavens.

An achievement that was believed to be impossible.

They vanished soon after, so Yueying didn't spend too much time with her parents.

But she knew that they were always kind to her, no matter what she did.

Yes, they would reprimand her, but those 'harsh' words wouldn't last too long before she would be cuddled.

'It's been a while...' A silent tear slipped down Yueying's cheek before she went into her own room.

'Let's recover and assess my state before leaving.' Yueying needed to know how much she could accomplish with this body, especially since she now had her heart again.

'Did I tell Yanyan about it...?' Yueying suddenly blinked. There was so much chaos with Aiko around that she wasn't aware if she had talked about it.

'It should be fine...' Yueying narrowed her eyes. 'I wonder if I can have two hearts...' There was only one legend about someone having multiple hearts, and that was an evil Dragon.

However, his evilness was never described, only seen as a terror for other Dragons.

'The jealous would always make up stories for their own benefit...' Yueying shook her head as she lazily meditated.

...

Aiko sat down to mend her Cauldron. Fortunately, all the pieces were still inside or around her Cauldron, so it was not like she lost any resources, but it would still take time to mend it together.

'It's paaaain, Moon Aikoooo!' Nightmare Aiko sniffled, just translating those Runes took a big hit on her mental prowess, but now she also had to patch this Cauldron up.

As if hearing her plea, her hair slowly changed to Moon white.

Moon Aiko sighed as she got around, mending the Cauldron. She already had a few ideas about how to improve it, but this was not the right time.

Who knows what Nightmare Aiko might do, so defence was tantamount to their survival.

...

Like this, a week passed and Moon Aiko finally could rest again, but not before sipping some tea in the main room.

Walking outside, Aiko pulled out a table with chairs to sit on and prepared her tea in that Tea Set.

[Immortal Moon Tea Set]

[Rarity: Growing Treasure]

[Restriction: Acknowledge by the Moon Goddess]

[Effects;

Tea Taste: +100% (Requires more teas for better taste.)

Tea correction: +10% (Requires more teas for better correction. (During the Tea Ceremony, this allows you to lessen mistakes.))

Tea Fragrance: +10% (Requires more teas for better Fragrance.)

Locked: -

Sealed: -]

[Owner: Aiko]

Aiko had to learn more about the Tea Ceremony before she would be confident in not keeping this Tea Set.

There were many good effects that would help her with that, so it would allow her smoother sailing.

After smelting that Meteorite, the [Special Spatial Melting Storage Ring] was unusable, but she would keep it for the future to see if she could recreate it.

It was quite handy since she didn't need to use her Grandpa Flame and could still collect many ores in her Storage Ring.

'Maybe because it's just a Storage Ring and not a Spatial Ring?' Aiko tilted her head gently. She would have to learn what differences those things might make.

'You need to know Runes, Forging, Inscription, Arrays in order to be able to create this ring...' Aiko didn't think it would be that difficult, but the more knowledge she had, the more absurd this little thing was.

'No wonder most have just Storage Pouches. As they are quite cheap and a lot easier to make.' Aiko nodded her head gently. The rate of Storage Ring vs Storage Pouch was about 1 to 1,000...

Aiko was deep in thought when someone suddenly sat on her lap.

"You look cuter like this~" For some reason, it was Yueying, and her scent was strange...

Yueying nuzzled Aiko with her nose. "You should bathe, or anyone would sniff you from far away~" She used [Clean] a few times on Aiko before nuzzling her again.

Moon Aiko was naturally frozen solid. She didn't expect this kind of situation, and she didn't know what to do.

"What?" Yueying suddenly snapped her head at Aiko. "Weren't you all hungrily looking at my body?" She pouted.

"Uhhh..." That's definitely something Nightmare Aiko would do, but Moon Aiko was... abstinent.

"Sheeesh." Yueying pouted. "You will never be able to make anyone happy."

She took her hands and intertwined her fingers with Aiko's. "First, you should do something like this."

Aiko opened and closed her mouth.

"No talking!" Yueying was unaware that Aiko couldn't even talk, but still smothered her with her heavenly bosom.

Moon Aiko didn't know what to do, but the softness that she was currently experiencing was beyond this world!

...

Yanyan spotted incoming Human Cultivators and smiled happily.

"They finally came~!" She hummed gently as she went back inside the cave.

However, something shocking was waiting for her.

"P-P-Princess?!" Yanyan was shocked that her Princess was already sitting on the Vixen and playing with her!

Moon Aiko's head popped out, pleading for help.

Yanyan noticed the situation and felt something was weird...

As she approached, she noticed that unique smell that happens only once in life.

'My god!' Yanyan quickly tried to pry her Princess off of that Vixen, but Yueying was like a tick, unwilling to go.

"Princess! Human Cultivators are coming!" Yanyan yelped and suddenly felt weightless.

She was able to pry Yueying off the Vixen.

Yueying giggled. "More friends~" She smothered Yanyan with her body.

"P-Princess! This is not the time!" Yanyan panicked as she had never learned how to deal with this.

Moon Aiko finally recovered. "What is happening to her?" She tilted her head gently.

"I'm not sure how to explain this..." Yanyan groaned. "It's like puberty for Humans? But it happens during adulthood once you reach a certain stage?" She groaned unhappily, since they had a specific word for it in Dragon language, but other languages didn't have this word.

"Oh." Moon Aiko nodded, her hair slowly changing to black.

"Yueying~" Nightmare Aiko whispered sweetly, so much so that Yanyan shivered.

"Aiko~" Yueying immediately wanted to smother Aiko again.

"How about we play with our visitors?" Aiko said gently.

"I don't wanna." Yueying pouted. "I want to play with Aiko!"

Aiko rolled her eyes. "Then how about we go play outside?" Moon Aiko already told Nightmare Aiko how to do this, so she just had to act it out.

"Will it be fun?" Yueying gazed suspiciously at Aiko.

"Very." Aiko smiled sinisterly.

"Okay~!" Yueying obediently followed Aiko.

'...' Yanyan just stared dumbfoundedly at how easily her Princess was handled.

...

"It's booring!" Yueying pouted while Aiko was doing something else.

"We can fight them, Princess." Yanyan tried to soothe her Princess, but Yueying was adamant.

"I don't wanna!" Yueying sulked.

*Crack*

*Creak*

*Roll*

*Boom*

Aiko was finally able to separate part of the mountain, and it rolled and cracked along the way down the mountain.

Some Human Cultivators were caught off guard and were slammed by those rocks.

They were injured heavily, and some even died.

Yanyan was confused. 'How will this help...?' However, contrary to what she thought...

"This is so fun!" Yueying's eyes sparkled as she helped Aiko pry rocks from the mountain.

"Can you explain how long this will last?" Nightmare Aiko suddenly asked.

"It depends on how strong the Dragon is, but usually it has only 3 stages." Yanyan explained. She was not as skilled as Aiko in handling the Princess.

"Tell me more." Aiko guided Yueying in prying off those rocks and sending them down.

More and more Human Cultivators fell victim to this.

'Does this place have a non-flight area?' Aiko didn't understand why they just didn't fly.

"Right. The first stage is reliving her younger years. This stage is the shortest, but most cumbersome on others." Yanyan kept explaining.

"However, we have to be careful about the second stage since-" Before Yanyan could even finish, a pissed off voice spread right next to them.

"Why are those spineless bastards invading my place?!" Yueying was completely livid, almost breathing fire.

"Hiccup." Yanyan hiccuped, since her Princess was a lot more powerful than she was.

Aiko moved Yanyan a bit further.

*Riiiiiiip~*

Yueying, in the meantime, ripped out a huge boulder from the mountain.

"FUCK OOOOOF!" Yueying threw that boulder with her maximum strength.

-----

The Cultivators approached a mountain that was radiating pure Qi.

That place would be the best place to cultivate, but a small problem happened.

For some reason, there were rocks rolling down from the top of the mountain.

What was even worse, they would speed up along the way, making them more difficult to dodge, especially if they suddenly split into many smaller rocks.

The casualties were piling up, but the Human Cultivators didn't stop.

The ruckus was so big that even some Beasts joined.

"You have to be slick about this!" A Snake-kin slithered towards the top of the mountain, but suddenly a very feminine, yet angry voice assaulted his ears.

"FUCK OOOOOF!"

That voice was piercing, but what was even more damning was the huge boulder that met with his body, obliterating it in the process.

"..." Most Human Cultivators paused the climb. They were now reconsidering their options...
