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

The Alligator Turtle King Leader was startled, his eyes widening in shock.

Emperor! That was the Emperor's voice!

As the Alligator Turtle King Leader lifted his gaze, he finally discovered a colossal figure thousands of meters above the sea.

It truly was the Emperor!

He was so shaken by such a terrifying display of might that his doubts about the Emperor's authenticity diminished greatly.

The Emperor! Still as terrifying as ever.

"As you command!"

The Alligator Turtle King Leader answered, then unleashed attacks even fiercer than before, fighting side by side with the two Peak Great Venerable Lighthouse Jellyfish.

"It is the Emperor, the Emperor was watching us!"

"Kill, this is the Emperor's first battle upon return, we have to win gloriously!"

"Wipe out the Lighthouse Jellyfish, charge!"

"For the Emperor, to battle!"

The morale of the Alligator Turtle Demon Beast Group surged; what had once been a one-sided battle now became absolute domination, as they quickly reaped the lives of the Lighthouse Jellyfish Demon Beasts.

As time passed, Xiao Ye continuously extracted Rule Fragment Crystals, causing the number of crystals in the system to grow ever larger.

[Venerable Realm Alligator Turtle Demon Beast, successfully extracted 40 Life Rule Fragment Crystals]

[...]

...An hour passed.

Xiao Ye again reaped 440 Life Crystals, 260 Creation Crystals, 80 Thunder Attribute Crystals, and 230 Water Attribute Crystals.

Adding the previously gained ones, there was a total of 413 Life, 120 Thunder Attribute, 320 Creation, and 250 Water Attribute Crystals.

This was truly a tremendous harvest!

At this moment, the battle between the two sides in the sea was drawing to a close.

The Alligator Turtle Demon Beast Group had won a resounding victory, with very few casualties; over ninety-nine percent of the Lighthouse Jellyfish side was wiped out, and the remaining few were all wounded.

But it was these survivors who were the most troublesome to deal with.

They were all Great Venerable Realm Lighthouse Jellyfish Demon Beasts—it would be extremely challenging for the Alligator Turtle Demon Beast Group to slay them.

*Xiao Ye thought that to finish killing all these Great Venerable Realm beings, even a day would not be enough, so he decided to act himself.*

Talent Skill: [Supreme Dragon Might, Dual pressure of gravity and spirit, weakens enemy demon beasts' attributes by half, exerts sovereign influence over King Beast and Dragon bloodlines]

"Screee!!" A crisp dragon roar resounded, piercing air and seawater, echoing in the ears of all demon beasts within this sea domain.

The remaining Lighthouse Jellyfish Great Venerables trembled violently, as if faced with some ultimate terror, and all of their attributes were halved.

*All attributes halved—their combat strength was more than simply cut in half.*

So now, the combat strength and defensive power of the Lighthouse Jellyfish Demon Beasts had been greatly reduced!

"The Emperor is taking action, a miracle—an absolute miracle!"

"Charge, fight alongside the Emperor!"

"Damn, I've made it, fighting the aliens with the Emperor!"

The Alligator Turtle Demon Beast Group, unaffected by the Dragon Might, seized the opportunity and swiftly exterminated the last of the Great Venerable Realm Lighthouse Jellyfish Demon Beasts.

Over twenty corpses of Great Venerable Realm Lighthouse Jellyfish were carried by the Alligator Turtle Demon Beast Group to the surface of the sea.

They saluted the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon with an air of pilgrimage.

With deep reverence in his tone, the Alligator Turtle King Leader said, "Emperor, we have not failed your sacred command, we have won a complete victory, and return triumphant."

He waved his turtle foot.

The Venerable Realm Alligator Turtle Warriors lifted more than twenty Great Venerable Realm Lighthouse Jellyfish corpses, floated upwards, and laid them in neat rows before the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon.

"Great Venerable Realm bodies, every part a treasure!"

The Five-Clawed Golden Dragon blinked, storing the Lighthouse Jellyfish corpses into the system space.

There was enough Life Rule Fragment Crystals—extracting more would be wasteful.

"Damn, what the hell is Xiao Ye's origin? Even the Alligator Turtle Race really obeyed his orders and wiped out the Lighthouse Jellyfish Race."

Several kilometers away, Jie Gangtai and Mu Qingxue were hidden in the sea.

Jie Gangtai gasped, *even he would be jealous at the sight of more than twenty Great Venerable Realm corpses.*

*Even as the son of the City Guardian General of the City Lord's Mansion, he never had such extravagant wealth; even his father couldn't compare to Xiao Ye.*

At Shanghai Base City, where Saint Realms remained hidden and Sovereigns reigned as the top combat power, even Great Venerables were rare existences—there weren't nearly so many in total.

*He couldn't imagine—if this terrifying force of the Alligator Turtles could be deployed at the Golden Dragon's whim and appear anywhere outside the Secret Realm, even on Blue Star, what a shocking sensation it would cause.*

The Alligator Turtle Demon Beast Group had three hundred members, with over two hundred and fifty at Venerable Realm or above, over forty at Great Venerable Realm, and a few at the Peak of the Great Venerable Realm.

"Let's not worry about him for now." Mu Qingxue's beautiful eyes shimmered, and she said, "Once the Alligator Turtle Race leaves, we'll go to the Lighthouse Jellyfish Clan Territory and search for the Heart of the Secret Realm."

Once one mastered the authority of the Heart of the Secret Realm, it was as if they held control over the entire Sacred Spirit Secret Realm—they could enter and exit at will, and even wield the whole secret realm as their own power.

*Even Mu Qingxue, who had the soul of an Ancient Saint Realm, felt covetous!*

According to the investigation by the City Lord's Mansion, the authority of this Sacred Spirit Secret Realm's Heart of the Secret Realm still remained, not taken away by Supreme Yunxi; thus, the two of them took advantage of this training opportunity, hoping to obtain the Heart's authority.

At this thought, Mu Qingxue recalled the images shown by Divination Skill and blushed.

In the distance, the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon collected the Alligator Turtle Race's spoils and praised them, making them all extraordinarily glad and excited.

The Emperor's praise!

This was the greatest honor!

The Alligator Turtle King Leader narrowed his eyes and said, "Emperor, there are two human ants spying on us over there—I will go eliminate them now."

The Five-Clawed Golden Dragon shook his head, "They're just ants, don't bother with them."

The Alligator Turtle King Leader replied, "Understood!"

Once the Life Crystals were acquired, the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon coaxed them to depart, saying, "Return first, I still have business to attend to!"

*Xiao Ye guessed those two would try to pick up the scraps, hoping to find rare treasures here.*

*So he wanted to see, just what could make members of the City Lord's Mansion risk their lives to seek it out.*

The Alligator Turtle Race marched away in grand formation, not leaving behind any hidden scouts.

As a Mythical Level template, the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon could sense that aside from those two humans, there was no one else spying nearby, so he transformed into his human form.

Xiao Ye and Nangong Siyao appeared in midair.

In their human forms, the two of them were also capable of flight, an ability inherited from the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon.

Meanwhile, Mu Qingxue and her companion swam toward the now-desolate Lighthouse Jellyfish Clan Territory and took out detection equipment to begin their search.

Jie Gangtai was puzzled, "Xue'Er, those two annoying guys are still here; we could have just waited until they left."

Mu Qingxue, certain that Xiao Ye would not simply leave, countered, "We have to hurry and search for the Heart of the Secret Realm—we only have one day."

Jie Gangtai wisely shut up.

"Bzzz! Bzzz! Bzzz!" The detector began to issue alerts.

Joy flashed in Mu Qingxue's beautiful eyes, "We finally found it!"
