Heaven, Earth, Me-Chapter 1148. Settling Down in the Heaven Converging City Core.

After the talks, Yasenia's group was given a place to stay near the main building of the [Long Gold Pavilion]. As one of the top-ranked merchant groups, they had more than one shop around the massive spaceport city. Like most cities, [Heaven Converging City] was separated into outer, inner, and core sections. In the Core Section, the security was the highest, and the level of the families and businesses there was also unparalleled compared to those outside.

The [Long Gold Pavilion] was part of the Core Region, and they owned a few properties there. Hence, giving one to Yasenia's family was not a problem. As they were walking toward their city, Yasenia felt a strange sensation below her stomach area, making her pause. She placed a hand on her navel and blinked. 'Huh? What happened?'

However, when she was about to check, a strange energy came from the void, and her eyes turned slightly muddy for a second, making her forget that sensation.

Around her, the girls noticed Yasenia's unnatural pause and movement, and Cecile asked. "What's wrong, My Love?"

Yasenia blinked and snapped out of her daze. She shook her head and smiled at Cecile. "Hm? Nothing's wrong, why?"

Cecile tilted her head and commented. "You just paused quite unnaturally, so I was curious."

"Huh?" Yasenia was puzzled. "Nothing's wrong, really."

The girls saw nothing strange in Yasenia's expression, so they nodded and didn't dwell on it. This small event was forgotten just like that, and no one felt anything wrong.

Once they arrived at their house, Yasenia pondered as she observed the building. It was a relatively tall building, having seven floors. By her side, the Long Family's guide spoke. He was a middle-aged man with an elegant and pleasant appearance. "This is the . It has four residential floors and three empty ones that you can use as you please. I recommend using the top four floors as residential floors, the third one for the profession-practicing, and the bottom two to either set up a shop or a place to train.

Yasenia pondered and asked. "What if we want to break through? Will this building be able to bear the strain? Or is there a special location where we can grow?"

The Long Family man frowned and glanced at Yasenia. "Lady Yasenia, remember that you can't break through during the following two years. If you reach the Transcendent Realm, you will be unable to participate in the Secret Realm."

The dragoness smiled and asked. "I know. Just humor me and answer. Moreover, there isn't just me here, right?"

The Long Family's man paused and smiled slightly awkwardly. "Right. Sorry, I jumped to conclusions too quickly." He glanced at the building and shook his head. "This building can't bear the Transcendent Realm Tribulation... Well. That's not entirely the truth. If you can summon Heavenly Lightning Soldier, any place is good to break through. You just need to fly into the sky and fight far above the clouds."

Yasenia glanced upward at the infinite black void full of stars and asked with a wry smile. "Where are the clouds?"

The man laughed and explained. "This city is large enough to be considered a continent. The natural gravity is enough to gather a small atmosphere, which is then enhanced via formations. There are no clouds or other natural events often since this place was created by hand, but I refer to the atmosphere. The Heaven that creates tribulations in this city is the main heaven of this lower heaven. Hence, you just need to go beyond the atmosphere and breakthrough."

The dragoness understood, but there was a small question that was nagging at the back of her hand. "Why is there no weather? After so many hundreds of thousands of years existing, this place should've become a natural world, right?"

The man smiled and pointed toward the center of the city, where a massive pillar of light shot skyward. "With that thing affecting everything and causing the commotion it causes each time it is activated, no weather events can form."

"Commotion?"

At that moment, the pillar in the middle of the city started glowing intensely. The man chuckled. "Just in time."

WHOOM!

A massive vibration spread throughout space itself, making even Yasenia's insides tremble with that vibration. Then, the pillar of light gained a terrifying aura and a physical shockwave exploded outward. Defensive formations on all the buildings activated, blocking the shockwave with ease. Finally, the light that was pouring skyward suddenly punched a void into the sky!

BOOM!

Yasenia could detect a faint light quickly surging skyward and entering the black void. Before she could look any closer, the void closed, and the pillar of light returned to normal.

The dragoness was speechless. "Don't tell me this event occurs each time someone uses the Ancient Teleporting Formation?"

The middle-aged man shrugged. "That is the case. Moreover, this time, not many people used it, so the commotion was rather mild. To put it in comparison, this was a gentle spring breeze, while its usual power is similar to the powerful gales during autumn."

Our girls sighed, but the middle-aged man added. "Don't worry. All buildings are protected by formations. There are also sound canceling formations in place, so you won't even notice it once you are inside."

The girls breathed a sigh of relief. With all the questions answered, the girls entered the building and looked at the place where they would live for the following two years or more.

The first floor was empty, with not a single piece of furniture, rug, or even ceiling lights. Only the natural light coming from outside illuminated the barren place. Speaking of natural light, this place was actually orbiting around a star and also had a Moon. Hence, there was a day and night cycle of 24 hours, controlled by Heaven itself.

Yasenia didn't dislike it. This way, she could adorn it as she pleased. Seeing the planning expression on their dragoness's face, they knew that she was thinking about how to layer this place the best she could. Tatyana hugged one of her arms and asked. "Are you planning on opening a shop?"

The dragoness was about to nod before she looked at the man. "Speaking of which, what's the coin you use here?"

The man smiled. "We use the universal coin—Spiritual Crystals. The ones we use here are Raw Spiritual Crystals, Low-Level Spiritual Crystals, Mid-level Spiritual Crystals, and very few people use High-Level Spiritual Crystals."

"Ho?" Yasenia looked toward Angel and asked. "Is that currency also used higher up?"

Mirrory manifested behind Angel, and she smiled. "Spiritual Crystals will be useful for a long time. Don't worry. Even the Sky Continent and locations of much higher grade use them. A Purple Crystal from the Sky Continent is equal to 1000 Low-Level Spiritual Crystals.

"Huh?" Yasenia was stunned. "How large is the exchange rate between coins?"

Mirrory smiled faintly. "10,000."

"Woah!" Evelyn exclaimed in surprise. "That means that High-Level Spiritual Crystals are equal to a trillion Raw-Level Spiritual Crystals or 100,000 Purple Crystals!!"

The dragoness nodded. "Then, we should open it. We've accumulated so many treasures during our travels, and if we go to a higher realm, they will lose a lot of value. We need to exchange them for a stable thing that we use everywhere."

The middle-aged man commented. "If you are interested in selling items, we can use our Pavilion's name to ensure your honesty as merchants. Of course, if we do that, you need to guarantee that you will not scam people. We would be putting our name on the line, after all."

Yasenia pondered and shook her head. "For now, I'll pass. I'll just open it, put the prices up I think they are worth, and if people buy things, then it's good. If they don't buy anything..." Yasenia smiled at the middle-aged man. "I'll be under senior's care then."

The middle-aged man felt his heart skip a beat for a second, but he quickly controlled his emotions. "Understood. I'll leave for now. The formations are activated, and the control room is on the 7th floor."

He passed a mind jade to Yasenia and left. Yasenia sunk her spiritual sense into the jade, and information on how to manipulate the formation appeared in her mind. "Hm~." She threw it to Angel and smiled. "Baby, you will like this. Go and play with it if you want."

Angel blinked her large and adorable blue eyes and glanced at the mind jade. After seeing the information imprinted on it, her eyes sparkled like soft and watery sapphires. "Thank you, Yasenia!"

The little girl quickly ran away, followed by the maids proficient in formation building. Then, Yasenia glanced at Andrea and smirked. "I'll create a layout for the first two floors. Create one for the third floor."

Andrea nodded and turned around, leaving with the maids proficient in Blacksmithing. Yasenia's gaze turned toward Evelyn and commented. "Create a uniform for us. It will be nice to wear one when working in the shop. Don't make it revealing or sexy. Try to give an aura of dignity and authority so that we have as few Young Masters flaunting their feathers as possible."

Evelyn chuckled. "Got it~." And she left with the maids proficient in tailoring.

Kali saw that Yasenia glanced at her next and was curious. "What do you want me to do?"

The dragoness grinned. "Create a very faint fragrance that makes people slightly muddled and happy without any side effects. We can use this incense in our shop to push people's impulsiveness to shop. Even if they regret it later, once bought, it won't return to us~."

Kali's face twitched, and she sighed, turning around to leave with everyone proficient in alchemy.

Cecile and Tatyana looked at Yasenia, wondering what she would order them to do. The dragoness was straightforward. "Hire a few people to work as receptionists. I don't want my maids to be serving other people. Moreover, with how pretty they are, it will attract annoying mosquitos that I will end up smacking to death. The mosquito dads and moms will buzz even more annoyingly later... In short, hire people that I don't have attachment with to manage things."

Tatyana and Cecile burst into laughter and left with the rest of the maids to plan the hiring process. The only ones left were Yasenia, Eira, and Doriel. Eira and Doriel were working as Yasenia's personal maids, so they wouldn't leave her side unless it were fully necessary.

With everything sorted, Yasenia started working on the layout of the first two floors so that everyone could start fabricating the furniture.

A week later, a shop called [Astral Sky Shop] was opened in the Core Section of the city. Curious about this new addition, some people decided to go in and check.
