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

The Space Ancestor Empress shook her head when she heard this.

*To erase the intellect of a Divine Spirit—this was nearly impossible.*

With her current cultivation and strength, at the perfected stage of Emperor Realm phase three, even she could not do it.

She might be able to beat a Divine Spirit up, severely injure them, and damage their Rule Origin, but she had no way to erase a Divine Spirit's intellect.

*But when she recalled what happened to the Fate Rule Divine Spirit twenty thousand years ago, a heavy look flickered in her eyes.*

*How exactly did the Fate Rule Divine Spirit have its intellect wiped out?*

*It had happened out of nowhere, with no warning at all.*

*At the time, the Fate Rule Origin Essence was completely unharmed; it simply hid away and went dormant, no longer projecting the Fate Rule.*

Over these last twenty thousand years, few Fate Attribute Demon Beasts and humans had been born on Blue Star, and this was directly related to the Fate Rule Origin's dormancy and hiding.

She gave her head a little shake, tossing out these stray thoughts, then laughed and said,

"Human Emperor, you can't force things like this."

"What matters right now is seizing the Fate Rule Origin and driving off the Divine Spirits who covet it."

Xiao Ye clenched his fists tight and took a deep breath.

The Space Ancestor Empress was right—what mattered now was to take the Fate Rule Origin and revive Old Gu Qingcheng.

Right away, he released the Space-Time Hall, letting it conceal itself deep in the void.

As long as he was in danger, it would always protect its master.

If Ziran, Jiang Xue'an, or Cheng Bingxi were ever in danger, they could be taken into the Space-Time Hall for safety too.

The Space Ancestor Empress wasn't worried at all that the Human Emperor might be in danger—she had experienced the power of the Space-Time Hall herself.

Even things she couldn't handle, the Divine Spirits of the Five Elements Faction couldn't do a thing about either.

With a crystalline, flawless wave of her jade hand, the world before Xiao Ye, Ziran, Cheng Bingxi, and Jiang Xue'an shifted, and a new view appeared in front of their eyes.

They had now arrived several light-years away.

The Divine Spirits of the Five Elements, Phantom Spirit, and Thunder Attribute were not far off in the distance.

These three Divine Spirits looked massive and burly, appearing as middle-aged human men. At this moment, they were all still cackling wildly,

"Heh heh heh, after countless years of planning, we've finally found the Fate Rule Origin."

"We actually owe it all to that bitch who showed up out of nowhere and dropped dead—forcing her Realm up just gave the Fate Rule Origin a recovery, made it show itself again. Otherwise, there's no way we'd have found it."

"That bitch is dead and gone—right in front of our eyes. So what if she had Great Divine Power? She still died thanks to our plan."

"Hahaha, if it wasn't for that bitch, we probably still wouldn't have found the Fate Rule Origin Essence, and the Zi Family getting wiped out wouldn't have led us to it either."

"A welcome surprise, heh heh heh!"

The Five Elements Divine Spirit was howling with laughter, too.

So what if the Ouyang Imperial Race was wiped out? Take out one Ouyang Imperial Race, he could always foster thousands upon thousands more Emperor Races.

The Fate Rule Origin Essence was his only true goal!

As he listened to these three Divine Spirits sneering and mocking, Xiao Ye's eyes went blade sharp, fixing them with a deadly stare.

*An endless inferno of rage rose inside, his face darkening like filthy water.*

*Sister Qingcheng was already dead, and these Divine Spirits still mocked and insulted her—truly, they deserved to die!*

The Five Elements Divine Spirit, Thunder Attribute Divine Spirit, Phantom Spirit Attribute Divine Spirit—these three monsters, he would make sure to kill, wipe away their intellects, and erase them forever!

Ziran, Jiang Xue'an, and Cheng Bingxi all glared at the three Divine Spirits too, eyes red, gnashing their teeth with fury.

*Qingcheng, the mistress—she had died in these Divine Spirits' schemes!*

Suddenly, the Space Ancestor Empress spoke, her voice echoing through the Endless Void,

"Five Elements, Thunder, Phantom Spirit, you're celebrating too soon."

"Your plans end here!"

At the sound of her voice, the Five Elements Divine Spirit, Thunder Attribute Divine Spirit, and Phantom Spirit Attribute Divine Spirit looked like they'd taken a lightning bolt straight to the face, their expressions changing at once.

The three Divine Spirits glanced left and right in panic,

"This voice… why does it sound like the Space Ancestor?"

"No way, a Divine Spirit that tough, who acts like she doesn't care about fame or profit, is after the Fate Rule Origin Essence too?"

"Shit, if the Space Ancestor's really here, our whole scheme is screwed!"

They searched everywhere, extending their overwhelming Divine Sense as far as it could go,

but they couldn't find where the Space Ancestor was hiding.

The Thunder Attribute Divine Spirit, remembering how the Ancestor Empress had beaten him up before, shivered and said,

"Five Elements, Phantom Spirit, let's run while the Space Ancestor's not here yet."

"She's just a total maniac—if she thinks you look at her wrong, she'll beat you up. I really don't want to have to sit around nursing injuries for five thousand years again."

The Thunder Attribute Divine Spirit nodded in agreement, "Sigh, looks like this whole plan of ours is truly screwed."

"Five Elements, if we can't get the Fate Rule Origin, we'll just grab another one next time."

"Rule Origins without intellect—there are still some on Blue Star. No need to be hung up on the Fate Rule Origin."

The Five Elements' face looked terrible, as foul as if he'd eaten shit, as he shook his head,

"No way. The Fate Rule Origin is the only advanced Rule Origin that can rival Time and Space."

"The Karmic Rule Origin has never appeared on Blue Star, the Reincarnation Rule Origin already has intellect, Destruction and Devouring are both under the Space Ancestor's thumb, and for the Divine Spirits of the Five Elements Faction, getting the Fate Rule Origin and awakening its intellect is the only way to stand up to the Space Faction's Divine Spirits."

The Thunder Attribute Divine Spirit and Phantom Spirit Attribute Divine Spirit went silent.

*Their attributes were just too ordinary.*

*How did that saying go again?*

*Space was king, Time was emperor, Fate reigned supreme, Karma was invincible, Destruction was sacred, Reincarnation...*

*Divine Spirits of the ordinary attributes could never compete with the Divine Spirits of those attributes at the same Realm.*

The Divine Spirits of Blue Star were divided into two factions: one led by the Five Elements Divine Spirit—the Five Elements Divine Spirit, Thunder Attribute Divine Spirit, Phantom Spirit Attribute Divine Spirit, Wind Attribute Divine Spirit, Light Attribute Divine Spirit, Dark Attribute Divine Spirit, etc.

The other was led by the Space Ancestor—Space Ancestor, Reincarnation Divine Spirit, Destruction Divine Spirit, and the Fate Divine Spirit who perished twenty thousand years ago, among others.

Cheng Bingxi looked at them as if they were idiots and said blankly,

"Xiao Ye, we're standing right in front of them."

"Are these guys blind or what?"

"They seriously can't see us?"

"Hey, are you blind? We're right here! Some so-called Divine Spirits, my ass!" she shouted mockingly.

But those three Divine Spirits still didn't hear a thing.

The Space Ancestor Empress's mouth twitched as she said softly,

"Human Emperor's wife, is there any chance I'm the one shielding us from their senses?"

"Uh." Cheng Bingxi was caught off guard, gritting her teeth, "My name is Cheng Bingxi, not Human Emperor's wife. Please call me by my name, thanks!"

*This made her seem totally dumb.*

The Space Ancestor Empress nodded, "Sure thing, Human Emperor's wife—Cheng Bingxi."

Xiao Ye found Cheng Bingxi adorable and said indignantly, "Predecessor Empress, please, beat the crap out of those guys—just really mess them up."

The Space Ancestor Empress's beautiful eyes lit up, "Human Emperor, are you asking for my help?"

Xiao Ye replied, "Yeah, please help me. I'll pay your fee!"

The Space Ancestor Empress waved her hand, "No need for payment. If the Human Emperor asks for help, I'd be glad to do it."

With another sweep of her hand, she canceled the spatial shield hiding them, and they appeared within the Divine Sense and vision of the three Divine Spirits.

"Space Ancestor!"

"Retreat, retreat, retreat!"

The Five Elements Divine Spirit, Thunder Attribute Divine Spirit, and Phantom Spirit Divine Spirit panicked like enemies facing death, instantly pulling back a hundred thousand kilometers.

Even so, they still didn't dare let their guard down, their faces heavy as they stared at the distant Space Ancestor Empress.

The Five Elements Divine Spirit cupped his fists and said cautiously, "Ancestor Empress, we never offended you, the Fate Rule Origin is unclaimed right now. Please don't interfere in our business. We'd be very grateful."
