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

When Xiao Ye saw these Beast Girls, the gloom in his heart faded a bit.

Gu Qingcheng's eyes fell on Mu Qingxue, her brows furrowing.

In the future, Mu Qingxue would look quite different from how she did now. The current Mu Qingxue had not yet grown up and become that top existence who controlled the timeline of the multiverse.

Cheng Bingxi, Nangong Siyao, Liu Ya, Mu Qingxue, Qin Xi'Er, Huangfu Xiangling, and Jiang Xue'an all sat on the sofa, chatting about family matters, grabbing breakfast from the table without the slightest formality.

Seeing that there wasn't enough food, Xiao Ye used his embodiment-type creation Innate Skill and manifested a whole table full of breakfast.

Soup dumplings, plain steamed buns, soy milk, fried dough sticks, milk tea, coffee, cola, apples, bananas, snow pears, durian, and so on.

The Creation Attribute came from Ziran, and its practicality was extremely high.

They finished breakfast in a cheerful and harmonious atmosphere.

Every Beast Girl said they wanted to go home for a bit.

Xiao Ye gladly agreed and decided to go with them, saying,

"Since Blue Star's top-level combat power is now at the Perfection of Emperor Realm's Third Stage, you all should be able to break through to Star Domain Realm soon, right?"

Cheng Bingxi shook her head, "Breaking through to Star Domain Realm takes about ten times as long as breaking through each stage in the Emperor Realm."

"It's not that easy."

"Just going from Perfection of Emperor Realm's Third Stage to Star Domain Realm takes at least thirty thousand years!"

Mythical Level, from Venerable Realm advancing one tier, required one year; Saint Realm advancing one tier took six years; Emperor Realm's First Stage, surface level, required thirty years per tier; Second Stage, three hundred years per tier; Third Stage, three thousand years per tier.

Star Domain Realm was divided into ten tiers, each requiring thirty thousand years to break through.

Mu Qingxue nodded, "I'm just a year or two away from breaking into Star Domain Realm."

"But I feel that just cultivating nonstop isn't enough, I need to solidify my Realm through combat, so I haven't rushed my breakthrough."

*If she had used Time Acceleration to recklessly cultivate, maybe by now her Realm would have reached Tier Six of Star Domain Realm.*

But cultivation required a balance of work and rest, getting familiar with one's Divine Skills and powers and stabilizing the Realm afterward.

Advancing steadily and surely was truly the best path for cultivation.

Otherwise, it would only make one's foundation unstable, unable to support the next advancements.

Just like a skyscraper, it needed a deep and solid foundation to withstand storms and the erosion of time, standing tall for ages.

Xiao Ye nodded, indicating he understood, and said with a smile,

"The Perfection of Emperor Realm's Third Stage is more than enough for our current needs."

"When you guys feel ready, just continue cultivating."

"For now, let me accompany you home and upgrade your parents' Talents to Mythical Level first."

Mythical Level?

All the Beast Girls cheered up, exclaiming in delight,

"Xiao Ye, are you for real?"

Xiao Ye nodded, "Truer than real gold."

"You all have reached Emperor Realm now. Your families can't lag behind too much."

Suddenly, Gu Qingcheng interrupted, saying,

"Xiao Ye, there's actually no need for you to do the upgrading."

"After we became Emperors, our bloodlines were refined. If I'm not mistaken, when Bingxi, Siyao, Qingxue, Xi'Er, Xiangling, and Liu Ya became Emperors, their family members' bloodlines were also refined and elevated."

"Direct family bloodlines would have at least been elevated to Quasi-Mythical Level."

"And extended family bloodlines have probably all become top SSS-level bloodline templates."

"Honestly, for Blue Star, Quasi-Mythical Level for direct relatives is more than enough. There's no need to push it up to Mythical Level."

"Once Bingxi and the others advance their Realms later, their bloodlines will ascend again, and their relatives' bloodlines will rise too."

Xiao Ye immediately realized this.

He responded right away, "So, who wants their families' Talents upgraded to Mythical Level first?"

"If you guys want, I can upgrade them now."

But the Beast Girls fell silent for a moment, then all shook their heads. Quasi-Mythical Level bloodline templates for one's closest relatives were already more than enough.

Everyone ate and drank their fill.

Xiao Ye sent Mu Qingxue home to the Demon Capital City Lord's Mansion, chitchatted for half an hour, then left.

Next, he dropped Qin Xi'Er off at Hang City Lord's Mansion and chatted with Qin Platform for a bit.

He took Huangfu Xiangling to the Zi Family's Imperial Race, beside Ziran.

He dropped Liu Ya off at Devil City Kunpeng Academy for a chat with her disciples and students.

An hour later, Xiao Ye returned to the presidential suite.

Only Gu Qingcheng, Cheng Bingxi, and Nangong Siyao were left in the room.

Cheng Bingxi asked, "Xiao Ye, are you going to return to Wilderness Base City for a trip?"

"Wilderness Base City was promoted to Advanced Base City a few months ago, reaching the standard for an advanced city."

"My parents became Deputy City Lords of Wilderness Base City."

"Siyao's parents are still the City Lords."

Nangong Siyao's gaze held anticipation, hoping she could go back to Wilderness Base City with Xiao Ye.

Gu Qingcheng spoke up, "Xiao Ye, can you find where Old Gu is? I want to see her."

"Last night I came back and saw you all lovey-dovey, so I didn't disturb you."

"When I woke up this morning, she had already left, didn't say a word to me."

Xiao Ye frowned and took out the Treasure-Hunting Compass.

He gave the command to search for [Fate Divine Spirit].

A few seconds later, the compass responded that Fate Divine Spirit was in Wilderness Base City.

His brow relaxed, and he smiled,

"Let's all go back to Wilderness Base City together, then."

"Fate Divine Spirit is there too!"

"Sister Qingcheng, how about you? Do you want to go back to Hang City?"

Gu Qingcheng shook her head, "I want to see Old Gu."

"And besides, it's been so long since I saw you, I want to stay by your side."

Xiao Ye replied immediately,

"Then let's all go to Wilderness Base City. We'll see what's changed there."

"I lived in Wilderness Base City for eighteen years; so many memories there."

*Reincarnation Divine Spirit was probably at the Perfection of Emperor Realm's Third Stage by now. Breaking through to Star Domain Realm would still take around thirty thousand years, or just one day in Blue Star time.*

*That was a day longer than anticipated.*

*But it didn't matter. It was only a day on Blue Star, it would go by quickly.*

*Once the Reincarnation Divine Spirit broke through to Star Domain Realm, she could use a Great Divine Power of that Realm to restore the Fate Divine Spirit's memories.*

*Fate Divine Spirit would then finally understand that she was not Gu Qingcheng's replacement, not anyone's replacement.*

Xiao Ye waved his hand and opened a spatial rift. Taking the three women with him, he arrived at Wilderness Base City in a matter of milliseconds.

At that moment,

Fate Divine Spirit stood outside Sunshine Welfare Institute, looking at the place where Xiao Ye had grown up.

She held a Memory Stone in her hand, standing in the bustling street, her air cool and pure.

A shifty-eyed teenager walked over to the entrance of the welfare institute. On seeing Fate Divine Spirit, his eyes lit up.

"Hey big sis, are you here to see my brother Xiao Ye?"

"He's not at the welfare institute. He went to Devil City."

The guy was dumbstruck by such a beauty, staring straight at Fate Divine Spirit, a greedy look flickering in his eyes.

Fate Divine Spirit's delicate brows drew together, "Are you Xiao Ye's brother?"

The teenager nodded excitedly, "Yeah, I'm Tang San, Xiao Ye's little brother."

"You want to know about my brother? How about we grab a meal and chat?"

Fate Divine Spirit replied coldly, "Sure."

*Something about the guy's gaze made her uncomfortable, but he was the Human Emperor's brother.*

*She respected the Human Emperor and hadn't looked into Tang San's fate. Besides, since he was close to the Human Emperor, even if she tried, all she'd see is a cloud of fog.*

But when the shop owners nearby saw him coming, their faces all grew dark.

Two or three of the shop owners shut their doors altogether and hung out 'Closed for Today' signs.
