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

The golden blood's auxiliary effect was on par with a Rule Fragment Crystal.

*Yunxi couldn't help but think, if Xiao Ye gave her a hundred liters of golden blood, she could quickly condense her Spatial Body, progress hitting one hundred percent.*

And then she would break into the Saint Realm.

The Saint Realm, back before the Emperor Realm existed, used to be top-tier combat power—the ceiling of Blue Star.

*Yunxi also really wished to reach that realm.*

"I have to figure out a way to squeeze more golden blood out of Xiao Ye!"

Meanwhile, back on the other side.

Xiao Ye had returned to Villa Ten, Lakeview Villas, Area Three.

Sitting down on the sofa, he casually grabbed a few red fruits and tossed them into his mouth. After giving them a try, Xiao Ye's eyes lit up—the flesh was crisp and sweet, instantly waking him up.

The more he ate, the more hooked he became. He completely polished off over twenty pieces of fruit.

"Ugh~!" Xiao Ye let out a long, satisfying burp.

Right then, the fruit's attribute kicked in. His whole body became hot, his skin practically steaming, bursting with waves of white mist.

"Crap!" Only now did Xiao Ye remember that this fruit was a super ultra-masculine supplement. Eat one, and you could go wild for a whole day and night. Eat two, and you could keep going ten rounds, no problem.

He'd just eaten over twenty. He felt like Jill was about to explode!

Thank God Mu Qingxue hadn't eaten any, or else he would have needed to detox her again.

"Hiss!" He sucked in a cold breath, then rushed straight into the shower to douse himself with cold water. MyVirtualLibraryEmpire(MVLEMPYR)appreciatesyourreadershipatthesource.

His tough physique could block any toxins, but the effect of the red fruit wasn't a toxin, so he didn't trigger any immunity.

In the underground cultivation room, the Golden Divine Dragon and Nine-tailed Celestial Fox picked up on the commotion. Telepathic as always, they stopped cultivating and changed back to human form.

But they didn't stop there. After turning human, the two of them immediately switched into beast girl form.

Beast girl mode activated!

Nangong Siyao had two small golden horns sprouting from her forehead, exuding faint waves of pressure, gaze cold as a queen's.

Cheng Bingxi's delicate little ears had turned into fluffy fox ears. Nine colorful, fluffy fox tails magically appeared at her waist, waving all around, her entire presence emitting a noble and pure aura.

The two shared a glance, smiled with a twinkle in their eyes.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Two sharp whooshing sounds split the air.

They charged toward the first floor in a mad dash, each wanting to be first.

They were ready to put the plan they'd discussed earlier into action!

Their goal: to force Xiao Ye into one hundred percent sage mode for the next few days, to make sure he wouldn't be interested in any woman whatsoever.

"Not in the living room?"

"Not in the bedroom either?"

"So weird, I could've sworn I heard him just now!"

The two beast girls dashed around the first floor in a frenzy, searching every room but still couldn't find Xiao Ye.

"The shower!" They looked each other in the eyes, faces turning ruthless!

"Bang!"

Little Dragon Girl Nangong Siyao kicked open the door in one go, then dragged Cheng Bingxi in, both of them resolute as hell.

"Xiao Ye! It's time for your judgment!"

"Yeah, don't complain and don't resist! Or we'll crank up the punishment ten times!"

Two female voices rang out from inside.

"Ah, what are you two doing..."

"..."

It wasn't until sunset, a full eight hours later.

In the living room,

Nangong Siyao and Cheng Bingxi had returned to human form, lounging on the couch with prideful, flushed faces.

Xiao Ye stared blankly from another sofa, feeling life had lost all meaning.

"Hmph! That's what you get for flirting with random chicks," Cheng Bingxi huffed coldly.

Nangong Siyao, standing with her on the same side, agreed, "Exactly! Eyes on your food, not on the buffet. Next time, we'll call Sister Liu Ya to join in your judgment."

"Wait. There's going to be a next time?" Xiao Ye looked terrified.

Cheng Bingxi lifted her chin, all smug, and said, "See, now you're scared? Let me give you a word of advice—don't develop any special feelings for that heiress!"

"Whatever you want to do we won't get in your way, or drag you down."

"But! You're only allowed to have us three beast girls, no more! That's our bottom line, our principle!"

Nangong Siyao nodded, "That's right!"

Xiao Ye's face darkened. He tried to argue, "I swear, nothing ever happened between me and Mu Qingxue... uh."

He suddenly remembered detoxing Mu Qingxue. His words stuck in his throat. He was definitely not clean anymore.

"Damn! Anyway, I just helped her call off the engagement, that's it!" he insisted, gritting his teeth.

Cheng Bingxi and Nangong Siyao didn't buy it for a second, huddling together and whispering to each other.

"He's definitely in sage mode right now, but I wonder how long he can keep it up?"

"Probably a good few days. Ugh, being so hot just gets him surrounded by girls!"

"Maybe we should just go all in and slice it off, permanent solution."

"Ow, why are you pinching me?"

"Idiot, that kills one enemy and loses a million, that's the dumbest idea ever."

"Hmph! All Xiao Ye's fault for making us worry nonstop."

*Watching the two of them whispering, Xiao Ye felt like they were plotting against him again, and his head instantly started pounding.*

*But he honestly had no plans to form any contract with Mu Qingxue! Helping Mu Qingxue out was just to complete a system mission, nothing else!*

[Mission: Help Mu Qingxue call off her engagement]

[Mission Reward: Rule-level Treasure Soul Capturing Pearl]

[Rule-level Soul Capturing Pearl Intro: Can forcibly grab stray souls, purify souls, extract memories, life knowledge, and cultivation experience from souls.]

[Mission successfully received]

*A Rule-level Soul Capturing Pearl, same tier as the Xuanhuang Gem, definitely sounded badass. With such an awesome treasure on the line, of course he wanted it.*

*Plus, all the memories, knowledge, and experience of an Ancient Saint Realm master—he was absolutely drooling over that too.*

*Helping was purely for the system rewards, seriously, not a shred of selfish intent!*

Nangong Siyao said, "Be good these few days, or else, hmph hmph!"

Cheng Bingxi said, "We're going to cultivate."

The plan had worked perfectly, and they'd gotten the result they wanted. The two of them returned to the underground cultivation room.

Xiao Ye's mouth twitched nonstop.

The very next morning,

Knock knock knock! Knock knock knock!

As Xiao Ye was still groggily asleep, rhythmic knocking sounded at his door—quiet but steady.

In the underground cultivation room, the two summoned beasts paused their training.

The Golden Divine Dragon's realm had reached the peak of Two-Star Sage, about to break through to Three-Star Sage, with the Nine-tailed Celestial Fox reaching One-Star Sage Realm.

They both returned to human form. Sharing a look, each saw the seriousness in the other's eyes.

*That heiress was back!*

Then, one went to open the door and the other to wake Xiao Ye up.

Ten minutes later, Xiao Ye and Mu Qingxue sat on the sofa discussing things, while Nangong Siyao and Cheng Bingxi peeked over their drums at the stairway, eavesdropping with wide eyes.

Mu Qingxue's stunningly beautiful face showed a bit of nervousness as she said, "Xiao Ye, have you made up your mind yet?"

Xiao Ye glanced at her—right now, he honestly didn't feel the slightest bit interested in her—and replied flatly, "I've always loved helping people out. Since it's Miss Mu's request, of course I'm willing to help."

Mu Qingxue's lovely face broke into a happy grin, as she said gratefully, "Xiao Ye, you're a good man, thank you!"

*Xiao Ye felt like something about her words was a little off, but couldn't figure out what.*

Mu Qingxue pulled a list out of her pocket and handed it over as she said,

"Ye Family's coming to propose tomorrow, so we only have a day to prepare. The items on this list need to be handled today, or else they'll spot something's wrong."

Xiao Ye took the list and gave it a quick scan, and was instantly floored.

1, Matching couple outfits.

2, Take intimate photos

3, Practice physical contact for temporary chemistry—princess carry, hand-holding, and so on.

4, 5, 6, 7...

Each task was more insane than the last, each more exaggerated than the previous!

*What the actual hell, these were all things real couples did!*
