My Celestial Ascension

After dinner, General Valeria stood up from her sitting position and stated, "I should get going and attend the meeting that King Richard and the others were holding."

"I see… What kind of meeting are they holding?" Yuan inquired, his tone indicating inquiry.

"It's extremely boring; they're debating how to proceed until they reach the Forest Of Never Return," General Valeria swiftly said, her tone tinged with reluctance.

Anna grinned at General Valeria after hearing this as if she could read Valeria's thoughts. "If you don't want to participate in the meeting, why not stay with us?"

Valeria glanced at Yuan and his girls for a time, thought about something, and then her eyes shone with joy and expectation.

'That's correct! This is an excellent opportunity for me to challenge him to a duel using only our sword skills.' General Valeria thought, her anticipation visible in her eyes.

'Even if he refuses to fight with me, I will not attend the conference. Staying here is a hundred times preferable to listening to their old dull discussions.' General Valeria decided to stay with Yuan and his girls since meetings and other activities are not appropriate for her, and she prefers to avoid such situations.

She then looked at Yuan. Her eyes sparkled, and her lips twisted into a naughty grin as if she were looking at her prey.

"Yuan, how about having a duel with me? I'd like to see for myself whether you're as strong as the rumors claim, or if it's just a rumor." She queried, grasping the hilt of her sword strongly, making her intentions clear to them.

"Well, Miss Valeria, I don't mind having a battle with you, but we just had our supper, and I don't believe it's a good idea to have a duel right now." Yuan gently responded, and his rationale for refusing her seemed persuasive to General Valeria.

"Oh! I was so anxious to fight with you that I almost forgot we had just eaten." General Valeria realized this and smiled awkwardly at him, attempting to conceal her shame.

'How passionate is this woman about fighting? This is my first meeting with a wild woman like Miss Valeria.' Yuan looked at her with admiration in his eyes.

"We can have a duel tomorrow morning before we leave," Yuan replied a while later, smiling softly.

When General Valeira heard this, she smiled broadly and her eyes sparkled with joy. "Then that is a promise."

"Without a doubt," Yuan said, enthusiasm and expectation visible in his eyes. General Valeria could see the enthusiasm in Yuan's eyes as he consented to a combat with her in the morning, and she had the impression that Yuan shared her thinking.

She knew Yuan was also working to improve his strength, and she could see he enjoyed battling strong opponents, so she was even more excited to have fuel with him.

'What a coincidence...I didn't expect him to share my mindset. How bizarre.' General Valeria pondered. She had a slight smile on her face, indicating excitement.

A few minutes later, General Valeria rose up from her sitting position and said, "I should get going now; it's already late."

"Goodnight, Miss Valeria," Yuan said with a little smile on his faultless handsome face, prompting Her to smile sweetly at him.

'Strange... Why am I acting like this in front of him? It is not like me at all.' She paused before approaching her tent, which was put up not far from Yuan's chariot.

Anna and Grace turned to Yuan with a sly smile, and Anna spoke, "Dear, don't tell me you're interested in Miss Valeria... She is Crown Prince Daniel's aunt and the Emperor of the Lionheart Empire's older sister."

"Well, what can I say? She is a lovely woman, after all. Cannot say I'm not interested in her." Yuan reacted with a slight smile, causing Anna and Grace to playfully pout at him.

"She is gorgeous if you dismiss the enormous war scars on her face..." Grace spoke in a calm voice, devoid of emotion. No one knows what's going on inside her thoughts.

Lily suddenly opened her mouth and said, "And she appears to be extremely kind if one ignores the serious expression on her face. Personally, I like her serious personality."

"I couldn't agree more," Rose replied, nodding. "I could tell with sure that she has a great desire to become powerful, and she would go to any length to do so."

"That's for sure," Julie said with a nod. Meanwhile, Mireya and Sylvia were secretly listening to their chat, which made Mireya quite jealous.

Mireya, on the other hand, swiftly regained her composure and remained silent, trying not to reveal her jealousy towards Yuan and his girls.

They then spend the next few minutes chatting with one another, discussing each other's few humorous secrets, which they found amusing to hear.

A few minutes later, Yuan rose from his sitting position and looked at his girls. With a slight smile on his face.

"It's about time we went to bed; it's late already, and most of the folks have already settled into their tents." He said, eyeing the other folks who had already fallen asleep.

The atmosphere was silent, with only the sound of bugs to be heard; the moon was hanging in the sky above, throwing shadows of the tree on the ground, making it appear frightening.

"Indeed, we should hit the bed; it's rather late," Anna replied a moment later.

They soon entered their carriage, and Anna immediately pulled their mattress from her spatial ring, placing it on the carriage's floor and preparing the bed for everyone.

Mireya questioned, shocked, "Are we all going to sleep together on this gigantic mattress?"

"Of course, we're going to sleep together; don't worry, Yuan will sleep between us; you don't have to worry about it," Anna said with a slight smile on her lips.

'Is it truly okay for me to sleep in the same bed as him?' Mireya wondered what to do.

Meanwhile, Sylvia was experiencing the same thoughts as Mireya and was hesitant to sleep in the same bed as Yuan.

Even though there will be other girls sleeping next to them, they are still nervous because they have never shared a bed with a man before, and this is their first time.

And, coincidentally, the man is the man they have feelings for, even though they are still in the early stages of their relationship.

Xi Meili threw herself onto the comfortable mattress. She smiled and lay down on the mattress, looking at Yuan with anticipation.

"Hubby, come with me!" She exclaimed excitedly, opening her arms to hug him.

"Sure, honey," Yuan said before approaching her and lying down on the mattress alongside her.

He then gently drew her into his hug and kissed her passionately on her pink, tender lips for a few moments, completely ignoring Mireya and Sylvia.

'Is he kissing her on the lips in front of us?" Unbelievable! How could he kiss her like that in our presence?!'

Mireya and Sylvia were stunned when they saw Yuan kissing Xi Meili on the lips, which made them both angry and ashamed.

Anna and the other females couldn't help but chuckle gently as they both remained dumbfounded. This made the two extremely humiliated, and their faces grew red from blushing.

Yuan withdrew from Xi Meili and looked at Leah, who was looking at him sheepishly; he couldn't help but giggle at her embarrassment.

He then took her into His hug and unexpectedly kissed her on the lips. However, instead of pushing him away, she wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him back.

He quickly ended the kiss with her. After that, he exchanged passionate kisses with his other girls.

Finally, it was time for him to kiss his two beautiful mothers, who were staring at him with lusty eyes as if he were a juicy piece of meat.

Before he could react, Grace pushed his face between her breasts and squeezed him hard before kissing him. Anna did the same, showering his face with kisses.

After that, Yuan exchanged a passionate kiss with his two mothers for the next instant. After the kiss, Anna observed Mireya and Sylvia standing at the side of the mattress.

"Aren't you both going to sleep?" Mireya and Sylvia exchanged a fleeting glance before nodding and settling into the bed near Ava.

—

Yuan awoke earlier in the morning to find General Valeria training with her sword and without wearing her heavy armor.

Despite her muscular physique, she appeared to be as attractive and seductive as he had anticipated.

For a brief period, Yuan was mesmerized by her beauty; she was like a goddess of war exercising her sword, swinging it with the purpose of killing.

Yuan was shocked to discover that every time she swung her sword, it sliced the air, creating a small gust of wind to erupt around the blade. General Valeria was not a cultivator, but she had such a thorough understanding of the sword.

"It appears that she has quite the aptitude with the sword...if she were a cultivator, her swordsmanship would be unrivaled." Yuan looked at General Valeria with amazement and respect on his face.
