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

Space-type demon beasts were even rarer than phantom spirit-type demon beasts, and there simply weren't any in the training base. He'd have to go deep into the Demon Beast Mountain Range to find traces of them.

And even if he found them, it wouldn't be easy to catch them!

So, Xiao Ye felt the urge to capture some space attribute demon beasts.

He wanted to catch a few space-type demon beasts and let them breed and live in the Saint Spirit Secret Realm!

Once he felt he'd learned enough, Xiao Ye closed his tablet. Just then, Mu Qingxue, fresh from a shower and wearing a thin, semi-transparent nightdress, walked by. Her curvy figure showed through the fabric, and a gentle fragrance drifted in the air.

"Hmph!" Mu Qingxue pouted, not even looking at him, clearly not in the mood to talk, and went straight into her own room.

Xiao Ye shrugged, not taking it to heart—*Didn't this little chick think his potential was limited? When the potential assessment at the forbidden ground came, maybe it would blow her mind.*

*He could just tell Mu Qingxue that his Beastmaster talent had evolved, and having contracts with multiple beast girls wouldn't really cause any side effects.*

*But Mu Qingxue probably wouldn't believe him anyway.*

The next day.

Xiao Ye returned to Kunpeng Academy, but instead of going straight back to Villa No. 10 in the No. 3 Lakeview Villas, he headed to Villa No. 1 in the No. 1 Lakeview Villas—where Dean Yunxi lived.

Dean Yunxi had only shown up at the City Lord's Mansion and forced the Ye Family to call off the engagement, allowing him to finish the system quest and get the reward.

So, he needed to go thank her and bring a gift to show his appreciation!

Besides, he needed to discuss the business of catching space attribute demon beasts with her.

Once the mistress agreed, Xiao Ye entered and walked into the living room.

On the table sat a large-capacity chamber pot. He glanced over and saw it was already empty—not a drop of golden blood left inside.

But—strangely enough—why was there a rosy lipstick mark on the rim of the chamber pot?

Xiao Ye couldn't help but start to suspect the true use of his golden blood.

*Whose lipstick mark was that?*

Xiao Ye carefully sized up Yunxi's sexy, petite, rosy lips.

*He wouldn't have believed it if he hadn't seen it for himself, but now that he did, he was totally stunned!*

"Hiss!" He sucked in a sharp breath—contour, size, color—it was a perfect match!

Xiao Ye was just dumbstruck!

*A shocking thought sprang into his head—had Yunxi really drunk all that golden blood?!*

"Hiss!" Xiao Ye sucked in another breath, *his whole worldview just got shattered.*

Yunxi's eyes, clear as autumn water, roamed with interest over Xiao Ye's hand as she said, "Are you here to bleed for me?"

Xiao Ye's eyes, dark as the night, flashed with seriousness as he nodded, "Yesterday was all thanks to you, Yunxi. As a repayment, I'll provide you with more golden blood."

He didn't waste words, just raised his wrist and made a gentle cut. Instantly, a ten-meter-high pillar of blood sprayed out, blasting against the ceiling.

Xiao Ye scratched his head awkwardly, "Sorry, it's only my second time bleeding—I'm still not used to it."

He used his water element control to gather all the sprayed golden blood into a floating orb right in front of him.

*If an ordinary person lost this much blood, they'd have dropped dead ages ago—a cold, stiff corpse on the ground.*

But Xiao Ye wasn't ordinary!

Golden blood kept spurting from his wrist, and the energy within Xiao Ye's body kept transforming into life matter, boosting his blood cell production. The speed of bleeding actually couldn't keep up with how fast his body made new blood.

[Life and Death Mastery, Controls the Life Factor and Destruction Factor] (An innate skill inherited from the Mythical Level Life and Death Sovereign Nine-tailed Celestial Fox.)

This time, Xiao Ye was generous—he bled nearly 20 liters of golden blood before stopping.

Looking at the gleaming sphere of blood, Yunxi's delicate body was stirred; her whole being seemed to radiate a craving from every cell!

Twenty liters, four times the five liters from last time! Four times as much!

The last five liters of golden blood had pushed her spatial body's condensation progress up by 15%, to a total of 20%.

What kind of improvement could twenty liters bring her spatial body?

*Maybe this time she could finally finish condensing it—reach that perfect spatial body at 100%! And then, breakthrough into the Saint Realm would be a piece of cake?*

*The Saint Realm! That was the top-tier combat power ceiling of today's Blue Star—the pyramid's peak!*

At the thought, Dean Yunxi's usually icy, beautiful eyes now blazed with desire.

Xiao Ye got spooked by Yunxi's hungry, unblinking stare—*his suspicions about the golden blood's actual use only deepened!*

He warned, "Twenty liters is more than enough. I can't bleed any more!"

"Yunxi, this much should be plenty for your 'research,' right?"

He stressed the word "research," closely watching Yunxi's reaction.

"Huh?" Yunxi snapped out of her trance; her exquisite face was awash with excitement. "That's plenty!"

She didn't catch the hidden meaning in Xiao Ye's words.

Xiao Ye picked up the big five-liter chamber pot. "Yunxi, I still need this chamber pot for something. You don't mind if I take it back, do you?" Brought to you by the folks at MV|LEMPYR.

Dean Yunxi waved her hand, indicating she didn't mind at all.

"Eh?" Xiao Ye hugged the chamber pot, pretending to accidentally spot the rosy lip mark. "What's this?"

"Looks kind of like a lipstick mark!"

"Weird, how'd a lipstick mark get on the chamber pot? This lip print looks just like yours, Yunxi."

"The lipstick mark happens to be right on the rim… I can't help but wonder, Yunxi, were you really just drinking the golden blood? Maybe the whole 'research' thing is just an excuse!"

Yunxi, still riding her rush, froze. Her beautiful eyes shot Xiao Ye a look.

She saw Xiao Ye's face, half grinning, with a teasing glint in his eyes.

Yunxi was stunned, her cheeks instantly blooming a fiery red—*she was totally busted! And by the very person involved, no less; total social death. This was social death of the highest order.*

Watching this quasi-Saint powerhouse turn into a bashful, flustered little lady, Xiao Ye thought Yunxi looked even more adorable and beautiful than usual. He got a sudden urge to tease her.

"Yunxi, if you want to drink it, just drink it. Why make up some 'research' story to cover for it? Don't tell me our Iceberg Goddess Dean actually gets embarrassed too?"

Yunxi's pretty eyes shot him a glare, a sharp spark flashing even as her face burned red. "Lip print? What lip print? I don't know what you're talking about."

"The golden blood's just for research, and anyway, who'd drink stuff out of a chamber pot? That'd be perverted!"

For every trick, there's a counter—she shut him down directly.

Xiao Ye's mouth twitched as he glanced at the rim—there wasn't a trace of that rosy lip mark left, like it had never been there at all.

"Hmph!" Yunxi grabbed the chamber pot and the big ball of golden blood and put them both away. "I need this chamber pot. Just so happens I pee a lot. If you need another, go find one yourself."

Now even the evidence was gone—Xiao Ye's face twitched on reflex.

Well, no wonder Dean Yunxi was a quasi-Saint powerhouse—she definitely wasn't someone he could mess with right now.

*But do quasi-Saint powerhouses even need to pee?*

Xiao Ye shook his head, shooing away those stray thoughts. Then, he brought up the fact that there were space attribute demon beasts in the Mu Family Forbidden Land, hoping Dean Yunxi could help him catch some together.
