Animal-eared Girl Era: Start by Forming a Contract with an SSS-Class School Belle

"It's not a complete form, it's the obsession form!"

Xiao Ye frowned.

*Was this really the real Gu Qingcheng?*

Ziran and Cheng Bingxi fell silent.

Xiao Ye said firmly, "We'll save her, we have to."

"Even though she's an obsession form right now, she's still a complete soul body. She had her own personality and consciousness."

"She had become another Gu Qingcheng."

"Even if she was a little different from the Gu Qingcheng in the future, she was still Gu Qingcheng, the real deal."

The Space Ancestor Empress laughed and said, "Very good, that's just what I'd expect from the Human Emperor. Loyal and righteous. I appreciate that."

Ziran chimed in, "Xiao Ye was right, we must save her."

"And make sure she lives."

"You've kept an empty bed for her for a hundred years. After you bring her back, you'd better make it up to her."

"A thousand times a day, all in one day!"

Xiao Ye was stunned, raising his trembling index finger, "A thousand times a day?"

"Sister Ziran, are you trying to kill me with overexertion?"

"You want me to die on top of Sister Qingcheng?"

"Not even a cast-iron waist could survive that!"

Ziran froze for a moment, "Uh, yeah, a thousand times a day does sound like a lot."

"There are no bad fields, only dead oxen."

"How about just once a day? In the Space-Time Hall, you won't even waste any time."

Cheng Bingxi and the Space Ancestor Empress twitched at the corners of their mouths. A thousand times a day? Forget about dead oxen, the field would turn to mush!

Xiao Ye waved his hand, speechless,

"We haven't even brought her back to life yet, isn't this conversation a bit premature?"

"Bingxi, do you want to write a letter to my future self?"

Cheng Bingxi shook her head, "Your future self will have future me to keep him company, I won't go cheating in spirit."

"Xiao Ye, even if you want to put a mental green hat on yourself, don't even think about it!"

"I, Cheng Bingxi, only love you, the current you!"

Xiao Ye fell silent.

*So all his Beast Girls loved him this much?*

*Even writing a letter to his future self counted as cheating?*

*This kind of love, was really heavy.*

Cheng Bingxi scooted closer, gave him a loud kiss on the cheek, then giggled,

"Xiao Ye, the one who really needs a letter is you."

"You write a letter to Sister Qingcheng in the future, and also to your future self."

"Put Sister Qingcheng at ease in the future."

"Also, what if your future self had bad intentions toward the time-traveling current Sister Qingcheng? You have to warn him."

"Tell him not to lay a finger on the current Sister Qingcheng."

"Otherwise, you'd be putting a green hat on yourself!"

Xiao Ye's mouth twitched.

*Putting a green hat on myself?*

*Current me, getting cucked by future me?*

*How ridiculous did that sound?*

"All right, all right, I'll write three letters. One to my future self, one to future Gu Qingcheng, and one to the time-traveling, current Gu Qingcheng."

"But I think, knowing my principles, my future self definitely wouldn't have any bad intentions toward the time-traveling, current Gu Qingcheng."

"I know myself well enough, my principles aren't going to break."

"Besides, my future self already has future Sister Qingcheng. Why would he go after a slightly younger, past version of her?"

"And besides, would future Sister Qingcheng even allow my future self to make a move on current Sister Qingcheng?"

"No way."

Done speaking, he pulled out three envelopes.

[To Future Xiao Ye

Treat future Gu Qingcheng well. Pay back everything you owe her from the last hundred years. Don't neglect her,

or else, don't make me time travel to the future and slap you twice.

I'm warning you, don't get any dirty ideas about current, time-traveling Gu Qingcheng.

If you do, I'll chop my dick off now and become a eunuch.

That way, future you will be a eunuch, too!

I hear future you is pretty badass, even became the Supreme of the Universe.

You'd better thank me—thank present me for working so hard at cultivating. Otherwise, there wouldn't even be a future you.

All right, rant over.

I'm sending current Gu Qingcheng your way. Figure out how to resurrect her, give her a new body, and then send her back.

Don't get a single dirty thought about her, or I'll come beat you up. If I can't, I'll just chop it off and make you a eunuch.

—Xiao Ye of a Hundred Years Ago]

Ziran and Cheng Bingxi crowded around for a look, their beautiful eyes widening, mouths twitching, grinding their teeth!

"If my past self talked to me like this, I'd spank him till he cries!" Ziran snapped.

Cheng Bingxi rolled her eyes, "Who talks like this? You have no manners at all."

Xiao Ye didn't care. Without his present self, there wouldn't be a future him anyway.

His present self was basically his future self's dad!

If present him hadn't worked hard to collect Beast Girls, gather resources, and upgrade the template, would his future self just lie down and enjoy power, getting Realm feedback?

Zero to one, that's the starting line—the hardest stage.

*What he was experiencing now was exactly that process!*

He was basically laying a solid foundation for his future self.

With a firm foundation, future him could build a tall, stable tower without it collapsing.

"All right, time to write the second letter."

Xiao Ye pulled out the second envelope and started writing.

[To Future Gu Qingcheng

Future Sister Qingcheng, let me start by saying I'm sorry.

You are the Beast Girl I married fair and square, yet you suffered so much misery.

I know I was wrong, I'm sorry I neglected you.

If I ever see my future self, I swear I will slap him twice.

How could he treat such a gorgeous, loving Beast Girl with cold indifference?

Completely unforgivable!

Future Sister Qingcheng, don't mind his mood so much. Just knock him out, drag him to bed, and squeeze him dry.

Once you've squeezed him enough, feed him some kidney tonic, let him recover, and then squeeze him again.

Get your fill and vent your grievances, then let him go.

If he dares neglect you again, write to me, I'll set him straight!

That bastard, he married you and then goes all cold war on you, what a piece of shit!

Anyway, if you have any complaints, tell me. I'll write and cuss him out for you. If he dares to disagree, I'll chop it off and make him a eunuch.

This timeline's Sister Qingcheng—I love her so much, and she's incredibly happy.

There was just a small accident, and now we need your help.

You'll see for yourself when you meet her. Just bring her back to life, give her a new body, and send her back.

Don't let my future self get any dirty thoughts about her.

Anyway, I wish you happiness.

—Xiao Ye of a Hundred Years Ago]

The last letter was for the current Gu Qingcheng, who was about to travel to the future.

[To Gu Qingcheng

Sister Qingcheng, after you get to the future, don't get any ideas about future Xiao Ye—he's already tainted.

He had future Gu Qingcheng with him, he doesn't need you there.

Current me needs you now.

You have to come back alive. Once you get a new body, return immediately.

—Love, Xiao Ye]

Finishing the third letter, Xiao Ye heaved a long sigh of relief and stretched his arms,

"All done, finally."

"Let's send Sister Qingcheng to the future—one hundred years from now!"

Ziran and Cheng Bingxi nodded, "Send her soon. The earlier she goes, the sooner she'll come back to life and return."

Xiao Ye stared silently at the Space-Time Travel Pearl for two seconds, then placed the three letters in the special space, far away from Gu Qingcheng's soul body.

He gave a command in his heart,

[Yes!]

[Travel a hundred years to the future, let my future self resurrect Gu Qingcheng, give her a new body, and send her back.]

"Vrrm, vrrm, vrrm!"

The Space-Time Travel Pearl shut the special space, isolating it from the outside timeline.

It began to radiate supreme time energy. With a swish, it pierced the void and dove into the river of time, speeding downstream and vanishing fast.

Xiao Ye, Ziran, and Cheng Bingxi watched the disappearing pearl in silence for a long while.

The Space Ancestor Empress suddenly said, "Human Emperor, do you really want to chop it off that bad?"

"You wrote in your letter about it, like, five times!"

"If you can't make up your mind, I can help. When I do it, you won't feel a thing!"

She realized, she could actually help out with this chopping business.

If this got her the Human Emperor's trust, all the better.

Xiao Ye said, "?"
