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

"Qingxue, did you know I was coming?"

Xiao Ye was stunned, "Why would I hate you? That's not a thing, so don't overthink it."

Mu Qingxue gripped his hand tightly, refusing to let go, silent, just staring at him with eyes full of grievance, anger, and aggrieved longing.

Two months ago, after marrying him, they had enjoyed each other's company for a few days in their honeymoon period, but after that, there was hardly any time together.

*She, Mu Qingxue, had a husband, and yet her life turned into that of a widow.*

Xiao Ye smiled faintly,

"Qingxue, since you've already awakened the Sovereign Realm's Time Rule Origin Essence, just keep cultivating, okay?"

"I need to go help another Beast Girl awaken her Origin Essence."

"Be good."

Mu Qingxue's eyes, clear as autumn water, turned red instantly, with tears welling up.

She choked up, "Xiao Ye, don't forget, I'm your Beast Girl too."

Xiao Ye froze, glanced at her grand form up front, and laughed,

"Right, you are my Beast Girl. Didn't I help tune up your body recently and fix that flat chest problem?"

"Now you've got real curves to be proud of, aren't you happy?"

"Happy my ass!" Mu Qingxue scolded cutely.

"I couldn't care less about being flat or not. The only reason I wanted to develop again was to get your attention!"

"But after I finally did, you still ignored me!"

"Hmph."

"I need you with me!"

Xiao Ye was startled, his gaze growing tender, nodding, "I get it."

"Qingxue, thank you for doing so much for me."

He spread his arms wide, opening his embrace.

Mu Qingxue rushed in, hugging him tightly, with joy shining from her delicate features.

But as her nose picked up a scent, she wrinkled it and looked up in mock annoyance,

"Xiao Ye, when you're alone with me, can't you just take a shower first and change? When I'm hugging you, I can still smell the other Beast Girls on you, and it drives me nuts, all right?"

"Ten seconds—you better wash up and change, or I'll beat your ass."

She let go of Xiao Ye, balled her small fists, and waved them menacingly.

Xiao Ye felt a bit awkward, so right in front of Mu Qingxue, he stripped down and used the Power of Space to clean every inch of his body—even the pores—like a car being driven through a car wash, deep-cleaning from top to bottom.

Mu Qingxue's face flushed red, but she didn't look away; instead, she seemed even more excited, staring straight at him.

*His body... had only gotten better.*

Xiao Ye instantly put on a new set of clothes—a black and gold robe.

Mu Qingxue felt a bit dissatisfied, she hadn't gotten her fill yet.

"Hmph!"

"Xiao Ye, you have to keep me company for half a month before you can leave."

"Or else…"

Xiao Ye hugged her lightly, "All right, whatever you say."

"I'll stay with you for these half a month—chat, exercise, hang out together. After that, I'll go help the other Beast Girls awaken their Rule Origin Essence."

Mu Qingxue's beautiful eyes lit up, her smile blooming like a flower, truly delighted.

The two of them sat on a big boulder, chatting about the past, about the future, talking for two whole days.

After two days, they entered that sticky-sweet phase, and started "working out."

While Xiao Ye was exercising, he didn't forget to explain a few things.

"Qingxue, from now on, focus on cultivating at full speed. Right now we can use a thousand times acceleration, time freeze—we can freeze time across the entire Milky Way Galaxy. We can even reverse time, making the Milky Way's whole timeline go back ten days."

"If it's personal time reversal, you can go back tens of thousands of years."

"It's a pity the Hunter Star Domain is way too vast. Our realm just isn't high enough to reverse time for the entire Hunter Star Domain, or else we could buy ourselves so much more time."

"Tsk—slow down a bit, will you?"

Mu Qingxue was absolutely wild.

"Hmph, these days you're all mine. I'll do whatever I feel like with you."

"As for the Hunter Star Domain Domain Lord, we don't fear him."

"Even if we can't win, he can't kill us either. Not with Space-Time Hall's protection and Time Divine Technique shielding us."

"If there's danger in the future, we can literally predict it ahead of time, take precautions before anything even happens."

"And don't forget, aside from time attribute, both of us have that Reincarnation Attribute as well. Even if we both die, we enter reincarnation anyway—can totally choose our next path ourselves."

Xiao Ye nodded. Mu Qingxue was a Beast Girl with both Time Attribute and Reincarnation Attribute.

She could level up using a single attribute or both together.

If it was just about raising her realm, going with one attribute would be simpler, but to use her full potential and max out her combat power, naturally both attributes progressing together was better.

*Death? No way we could actually die.*

Even if their Divine Soul got wiped, just rewind their time ten thousand years and—poof—full resurrection.

To kill a Time Attribute powerhouse at the Star Domain Realm, you'd need someone several realms stronger than Star Domain.

Just like that, the two of them spent half a month in battle.

After half a month, their battle ended.

But Xiao Ye didn't leave.

Mu Qingxue was truly relaxed then, full of energy, laughing,

"What, can't bear to be apart from me now?"

Xiao Ye shook his head, thinking that the Reincarnation Divine Spirit was also a Reincarnation Attribute, so he may as well move the Reincarnation Divine Spirit and the Sovereign Realm's Reincarnation Rule Origin Essence over here.

He spread out his senses, found the Reincarnation Divine Spirit a full ten thousand meters deep in the sea.

The Reincarnation Divine Spirit truly deserved to be called a Divine Spirit born of will—her sensitivity to the Reincarnation Origin was extraordinary. She'd already awakened her Origin Essence and entered a state of cultivation.

Xiao Ye used the Space-Time Hall's authority to transfer, across space, the Reincarnation Divine Spirit and the Sovereign Realm's Reincarnation Rule Origin Essence over without disturbing her at all.

So, up above the sky, next to the Time Attribute Origin Essence, the Reincarnation Origin Essence appeared.

Floating beside the Reincarnation Origin Essence, there was a Reincarnation Divine Spirit in the middle of cultivation.

Mu Qingxue was amazed, "Xiao Ye, you can actually absorb an Origin Essence across space."

"If you can do that, why make us go out at all? We could just cultivate around the Super Hall instead."

Xiao Ye waved his hand, "You guys have been cooped up in one spot for so long, you gotta get out and get some air, you know?"

"See something new for a change."

Mu Qingxue couldn't help but retort, "This Super World is so huge, even a Star Domain Realm Divine Sense can't cover a ten-thousandth of it. What if we get lost?"

"Yeah, that's legit. Si Yao almost got lost." Xiao Ye thought for a moment, snapped his fingers, and grinned,

"I'll open up teleportation access for you guys right now."

"No matter where you are in the Super World, you can instantly warp back to the world center—Super Hall."

He immediately issued a command to the Space-Time Hall.

Opened the map and spatial teleportation access for all Divine Spirits and all Beast Girls.

"All right, Qingxue, time for you to start cultivating again. I'm gonna go keep the other Beast Girls company," Xiao Ye said.

Mu Qingxue snorted coldly, "Go ahead—hope you die on some girl, you bastard!"

She instantly entered her cultivation state, kicking off acceleration by a thousand times!

Her speed was blazing, way faster than the other Beast Girls or Divine Spirits—by a whole factor of a thousand.

Xiao Ye chuckled, then teleported away.

Ziran and Huangfu Xiangling were master and disciple—one was a pure purple-haired, purple-dressed goddess, the other a youthful, energetic silver-haired girl with twin ponytails.

The master and disciple pair were moving swiftly among ancient trees in the Primordial Great Forest.

After more than half a month, they still hadn't found the Sovereign Realm's Reincarnation Attribute Origin Essence.
