Han Xue saw the miserable appearance of those five and asked, surprised, "What happened?"

Yasenia answered calmly, "They tried to peek. So I let them whiff my mating scent. I don't recommend keeping them since they will become sexual deviants the moment they come to their senses."

Yasenia placed a hand on their wrists and inserted her energy. After doing a basic analysis, Yasenia commented calmly, "As I thought, their minds have broken because of pleasure. They won't be able to think of anything else besides sexual pleasure for the rest of their lives. However, since they will be unable to reach the heights my scent caused, they will probably become a lunatic. Dispose of them as you like."

Han Xue gulped. She had tasted Yasenia's scent potency herself. But it seemed that what she experienced was a very controlled amount. 'Thankfully, Yasenia was gentle with me, or I would have been in a lot of trouble. Even then, she caused the biggest orgasm of my life... She is a little scary when you think about it.'

Yasenia saw Han Xue's reactions and reassured her, "Don't worry, Han Xue. You won't end up like these two. What you experienced was an extremely controlled amount. I wouldn't go destroying people's minds because of small conflicts."

The Mayoress thought, 'Isn't spying on you a small conflict? You literally went to a public bath!'

She was correct. But showing their naked figures in a public bath or how they have sex is completely different. Moreover, if it was just Yasenia who they spied on, she wouldn't have reacted, but they included Angel and Kali in their "small" blunder, resulting in a result they won't ever be able to escape from.

She is too cruel? You are right, but that's Yasenia when people mess with her lovers in a way that rubs her badly.

Han Xue got over it quickly and sighed, "It is a shame since one of them was a maid directly under me. But this is what they get for defying my orders. Although I don't support what you did, I won't discuss right or wrong."

Yasenia nodded and commented. "I'm going to enter the special Trial now. Inform Kali and Angel when they wake up. I've cleaned the whole room, so it is safe for mortals to enter."

Han Xue nodded and asked shyly, "Can I get a hug before you enter?"

Yasenia smiled and gathered her in her embrace. She was a head taller than Han Xue, so she could surround the woman nicely and snuggly. "Thanks for all your help, Han Xue. I hope you take care of them while I'm away."

Han Xue rubbed her face on Yasenia's smooth skin and nodded. She was feeling pure bliss at that moment and would have accepted almost any request. 'I feel like a young girl when I'm with her~.'

Yasenia felt her actions and found her cute. She teased her a little, "A grown woman acting like this~. You are very cute, madam Mayoress~."

Han Xue looked up while blushing and reprimanded coquettishly, "Who are you calling cute!? It is your fault for feeling this good."

Yasenia laughed and gave her a small kiss on the forehead. "Let's go, I want to leave before they wake up."

Han Xue didn't release the hug and asked, "Why? Don't you want to say goodbye?"

Yasenia smiled wryly, "If I see their faces when I have to leave, it will be difficult. I'm very weak to their demands, after all."

Han Xue laughed aloud. "You pamper them too much! You have to be more dominant to be a harem head~."

Yasenia lifted her eyebrow, "I dominate them enough at night. I think giving them control during the day is good enough."

Han Xue left her arms and coughed, "Let's go before you make me do things I shouldn't. Truly, you are like a lethal delicacy for mortals. Dangerous, dangerous."

Yasenia and Han Xue bantered on their way toward the crypt.

A while later, Yasenia stood before the ominous orb and began channeling her Trial points toward it.

The 300,000 Points flew out of her dantian one by one, illuminating the enormous room with dark light. Yasenia felt something surrounding her as those points disappeared. The circle below her also lit up, and the formation lines in the room became brighter.

The black orb shone and spun as it absorbed Yasenia's Trial points, creating ancient energy that supplied the surroundings.

Yasenia was relaxed as everything happened, and after Yasenia poured everything inside the orb, the floor below her became like a dark liquid, and she fell down into it.

She fell into a trial that would challenge every self-imposed value, break them, and transform Yasenia in ways she never thought.

This was a trial that would allow Yasenia to be reborn in many ways, maintaining her core personality.

Moments later, the broad crypt became quiet once again.

When Angel and Kali woke up, Han Xue informed them of Yasenia's departure. "Yasenia has entered the Trial. She told me to take care of you two, so tell me if you need something."

Angel instantly became teary and sobbed quietly. Staying away from Yasenia is what she hated the most.

Kali hugged and comforted her, "Don't cry, Angel. Yasenia would be sad if she knew."

Angel nodded and held her tears in but still complained. "But I will miss her a lot."

Kali thought about it and said, "How about you complete the [Crystal Key] Trial? Doing that would probably let you forget about it. If I can, I will also accompany you."

Angel nodded and looked at Han Xue, "Guide me there, please."

Han Xue nodded and patted Angel, "Don't worry, little Angel. Time will fly while you try to overcome it, and Yasenia will be by your side before you know it." Angel nodded.

They discussed when to go there, but because Angel seemed eager, Han Xue gave them the map. "Here it is. You have to follow these indications. I can't promise that you won't find people there, but only you can open it, so be careful."

Angel nodded again and looked at the map. Her watery blue eyes widened in surprise. "This is outside the Town!"

Han Xue nodded, "Yes. An inheritance as powerful as this one has to be somewhat isolated, or it can affect other things. You will understand when you take the Trial. However, I have to advise you of something, little Angel."

Angel looked at Han Xue's serious face and also sat up straight, "You aren't the first person to get this Key."

Angel tilted her head, not understanding where the problem was. Kali, on the other side, had her face changing. "Do you mean that all the others that got the key didn't make it?

Han Xue nodded, "Moreover, this inheritance is a single-person inheritance. Meaning that unlike most of the inheritances in this Secret Realm, only a single person can get it. Failing to get it normally means death or worse."

Angel clutched the translucent blue key in her hand. However, a moment later, her big blue eyes became resolute. "I-I don't want to be left behind by Yasenia. I will do it. I will challenge it!"

Han Xue opened her mouth but then closed it. She smiled and said, "Good look, little Angel. I pray for you to complete it."

Kali also didn't say anything. If she was in Angel's place, she wouldn't have acted differently. However, she couldn't help but ask. "Why do you say all of this now?"

Han Xue sighed, "If Yasenia knew about it, she wouldn't have let you participate. Moreover, she would have been too worried while doing the Trial, which can be fatal."

Angel and Kali looked at Han Xue strangely.

"What's wrong?" Asked the Mayoress.

Angel said, "Yasenia hates when people she trusts hide things from her, even if they are "for her own good." I think that this is the thing she hates the most after blatant lies."

Han Xue was surprised, "It shouldn't be that bad, right?"

Kali said with pity, "We won't tell if Angel makes it, but if she doesn't... Be prepared for her wrath, Han Xue."

Han Xue remembered the five people who had their minds broken and gulped. She looked at the small, cuddly, big-breasted, blonde girl and stuttered. "Little Angel, how about you don't go?"

Angel shook her head, "I will do it! I need to become stronger!"

Han Xue wanted to cry. 'Please, I pray to the Heavens and above, let little Angel make it!'

After some more conversation, tons of advice from Han Xue, and preparing themselves, they departed. Since the door for the [Crystal Key] was outside the town, they would have to move carefully.

Angel used a veil and green robes to hide from people targeting her. Although her long blonde hair was quite characteristic, she wasn't the only blonde woman around. A change in attire and a veil were enough to hide successfully from prying eyes.

Before leaving the town, Kali had asked if they could reenter. Han Xue told them that once a cultivator completed the Entry Trial, unless you were challenging higher-level gates, it would let the

cultivator go through without challenging it again. The aura latched after entering the town served to recognize the cultivators.

Angel and Kali guessed that the place where the [Crystal Door] was hidden was almost two days away from the town if they went at a constant rhythm.

They traveled together, slowly approaching the place.

An important detail that has to be told is that they both didn't cultivate the Yang energy inside of them, letting it in their bodies to feel Yasenia's presence even if she was not around. Moreover, absorbing it slowly and naturally would result in a better outcome.

Normally, they don't have the chance to do this since Yasenia "refills" them every night, and letting it in their body would only result in a damaging overflow.

Anyway, after some small encounters, they reached the place marked on the map. These small encounters were against some beasts and weak cultivators, so between Angel and Kali, they could overwhelm them easily.

The place where they arrived was a cliff in the middle of the forest. This cliff was mostly covered in vegetation. The rocks on the cliff were mainly dark brown with a strange blue undertone, and the vines covering it had a peculiar translucent nature, similar to crystal. The colors of the vines ranged in a wide variety of green and blue.

Finding a gate in this area would require a lot of luck.

Even then, Kali wasn't surprised as she saw cultivators flocking around the three-meter-tall exquisite gate. 'Even if the surroundings seem well hidden, the vegetation in this area is too strange. I can guess that it has mutated after exposure to a particular energy for tens of thousands of years. Maybe even more.'

Angel saw the multitude by the doors and blinked twice. Then, she asked Kali, "How do we enter, Kali? Won't other people enter once I open it?"

Kali thought for a moment, "How about you try it when they are sleeping? Their guards will be more focused on protecting themselves than the door at that time."

Angel asked, "Will they even sleep? Cutlviators on our level can go a week without sleeping without a problem."

Kali nodded, "I'm sure that they will have people on guard. Regardless, not sleeping when you can is strange. Although cultivators on our level can endure without sleeping, the habits we gained during our mortal days are difficult to erase."

Angel thought about it and asked, "You are right. Can you make us stealthy, Kali?"

Kali nodded, "If you remain inside the forest, no one will pick up your presence as long as Valeria and I are around."

Angel smiled, "You are so reliable, Kali!"

Kali chuckled and patted Angel, "What do you have in mind, little Angel?"

Angel explained with a smirk, "I will use the [Mirage Formation] to confuse them so that I can enter without them knowing."

Kali nodded and praised her, "You are so clever, little Angel. Let's do it that way."

Angel smiled and got to work. Valeria stayed by her side and focused on remaining stealthy.

Angel ran around the forest, careful not to meet with other cultivators head-on, no matter how stealthy. If they saw her, it would end there.

Angel didn't have any troubles as she covered the forest with different sized and shaped [Glass Nodes]. She even made sure to create a green-colored coating around them to mend them with the surroundings. That way, even if people saw them, they would just think they were like the special rocks around the area.

By the time night arrived, Angel was done with her preparations. After she saw the majority of the cultivators going to their camps, she looked at Kali. Kali smiled and said, "Don't worry about me. Go for it, Angel. You better strengthen yourself, or the next time we meet, I'm going to be stronger than you."

Angel blew a raspberry and said, "I caught up with your cultivation level. You will see how strong I become!"

Kali laughed gently and said, "That was before because I couldn't do it with Yasenia~. Now, beware since we are in the same playfield."

Angel smiled and hugged Kali, "Take care, Kali. Remember that if something happens to us, Yasenia will be very sad."

Kali nodded and returned the hug, "Thank you for all the help these weeks, Angel. I'm really indebted to you, so you better take care of yourself."

Angel smiled cutely and turned toward the gate. Her entire being changed as she focused on the task ahead.

Then, she activated the formation.
