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

The terrifying pressure of Cheng Bingxi's Sovereign Realm, fifth level, swept out, pinning the maid straight to the ground.

She said coldly,

"Who are you, and what is your purpose on Blue Star?"

Nangong Siyao and the Time Empress watched coldly.

The delicate-faced little maid showed a look of panic, and stammered,

"Miss, I'm just someone from Wilderness Base City. I've never even left Blue Star."

The Time Empress snorted and demanded, "There's no way a native of Blue Star would have the type of life force you're carrying. Stop trying to lie. Speak up."

"What is your purpose in possessing the maid?"

The little maid glanced at Nangong Siyao and Cheng Bingxi and saw that both of them looked completely convinced she had taken over the body.

So, she stopped pretending.

She stood up at once, as if the fifth-level Sovereign Realm's suppression meant nothing to her.

With a crooked, wicked grin and crimson light blazing in her pupils, she said,

"I've had enough. Not playing along anymore."

"What kind of bullshit little maid? I quit this shit!"

"Kekeke, the World Tree has appeared on humanity's homeworld, and the Desolate Realm is emerging too. This news, it'll spread through every major cosmic race!"

"Just wait, Blue Star! Every major cosmic clan is about to invade you! Hahahahaha!"

The little maid's eyes grew dim, and a red glow emerged from her body, shooting up into the sky.

Cheng Bingxi snorted and immediately activated the [Ideological Seal] Divine Skill, covering Blue Star's entire ozone layer. The red light slammed into the ozone layer, desperately trying to escape.

But it was caught by the Ideological Seal right away.

Surrender!

A calm voice drifted from Wilderness Base City to the red glow right next to the ozone layer.

"Return."

The red glow struggled, showing a savage Demon Beast face in its glow.

*No. I can't go back.*

*I need to report to the Sacred Race that the World Tree has matured.*

*But no matter how I struggled, my body started flying back to Wilderness Base City against my will.*

A few seconds later,

Cheng Bingxi, Nangong Siyao, and the Time Empress had a Demon Beast soul body kneeling on the floor before them, saying,

"Master!"

Cheng Bingxi said coolly, "Tell us your purpose and where you come from. Everything."

The Demon Beast soul body nodded, its expression dull, and said,

"I come from the Demon Race of the Nihility Sacred Race."

"Two days ago, the Demon Lord ordered me to infiltrate Blue Star, figure out the situation here, and report it back."

Cheng Bingxi's face changed.

*Nihility Sacred Race, that sounded like a major cosmic clan right away.*

*If Blue Star got invaded, the Dragon Country wouldn't stand a chance.*

"Have you already sent any intel back to the Demon Race?"

The Demon Beast soul body replied, "I've reported back twice already. The Demon Lord told me to keep hiding. He said he'd be coming to Blue Star soon."

"If this soul body dies, the Demon Lord will immediately sense my death. Please, Master, don't kill me—I can work as your inside source."

The Time Empress spoke, "The Human Emperor set up a Sovereign Realm barrier in the Milky Way Galaxy. If there's a large-scale invasion, it will issue a warning."

"But if someone sneaks in or uses skills to slip through the barrier, we can't catch them."

"If this Demon Beast is loyal enough, it could be useful as a spy."

Cheng Bingxi nodded.

She used the Sovereign Realm law divine skill [Ideological Seal] again, implanting it into the Demon Beast's soul body.

"You must report any movements of the Nihility Sacred Race's Demon Beasts to us."

"And you don't need this flesh anymore."

The Demon Beast soul body replied reverently, "Yes, Ma'am!"

Cheng Bingxi waved her hand, locking it in the Wilderness Base City's dungeon, restricting its freedom.

*With the Ideological Seal in place, there was no need to worry about rebellion. But this Demon Beast was only a temporary servant; it had to be eliminated after its use was up.*

*It just wasn't qualified to remain as Cheng Bingxi's servant.*

Cheng Bingxi said,

"We have to discuss this with Xiao Ye and notify the other Beast Girls, let everyone get ready in advance."

"Time Empress, how powerful are the Demon Race of the Nihility Sacred Race?"

The Time Empress considered,

"Within the Nihility Sacred Race's domain, the Nihility spiritual humans and the Demon Race coexist."

"The Nihility Sacred Race is a third-rate cosmic powerhouse. Their highest realm is Galaxy Realm Perfection. Well, tens of thousands of years ago, it was Galaxy Realm Perfection, but now they might have broken through to the Star Sea Realm."

"Above the Sovereign Realm is the Galaxy Realm, and above that is the Star Sea Realm."

"The Star Sea Realm is also called the Mini-Cosmos Realm. Once you enter Star Sea Realm, you're qualified to travel anywhere in the Universe."

"That's what it means to be a true cosmic big shot."

"As for above Star Sea Realm, that's the Cosmic Level. The clan leaders of major cosmic powers are usually at this level. They can go wherever they want in the Universe."

Cheng Bingxi nodded, showing she understood.

After that, she sensed for Xiao Ye's aura and realized he wasn't on Blue Star.

Cheng Bingxi opened a Golden Light Gate, bringing Nangong Siyao and the Time Empress with her through it.

Sure enough, near a villa bordering the Super Hall of the Space-Time Hall, she sensed Xiao Ye's aura.

Cheng Bingxi, Nangong Siyao, and the Time Empress arrived in the first floor living room of the villa.

They could actually hear the muffled, rhythmic night music coming from the bedroom.

The Time Empress's face turned odd. The main wife came looking for Xiao Ye, and ended up running into him doing it with another woman.

Nangong Siyao asked curiously, "Hey, whose voice is that?"

"Qingxue or Liu Ya?"

The Time Empress shook her head, "Not Qingxue. I know her sounds—they're similar to mine, but I can tell it's not her."

Nangong Siyao frowned, "So, who is it then? The Ancestral Empress?"

The Time Empress said, "Could be."

But unexpectedly, Cheng Bingxi denied it,

"Not Liu Ya, not the Ancestral Empress either."

"It's Huangfu Xiangling!"

Her tone was firm.

Nangong Siyao and the Time Empress were shocked. *She could really tell that?*

Cheng Bingxi laughed,

"I know every Beast Girl's info by heart, including their personality, daily routine, quirks, and hobbies."

"What knowledge they use when moving, how long they last, what their voices sound like—I have every detail memorized."

Nangong Siyao gaped, feeling like Cheng Bingxi was some kind of maniac, and cried,

"Wow, Sister Bingxi, that's so messed up!"

"You really memorize that stuff in detail?"

"So, you know how I sound too, and which things I like, and how long I can last?"

Cheng Bingxi nodded, "Exactly."

Nangong Siyao's hair practically stood on end. *This Sister Bingxi is just nuts now.*

*Was it really necessary, even for running a big family, to know that much detail?*

The Time Empress looked at Cheng Bingxi with awe in her eyes, more and more convinced this big sister was insanely amazing—her mind was sharp, her means unfathomable.

Nangong Siyao huffed in outrage, "Sister Bingxi, did you eavesdrop when I was around with Xiao Ye?"

Cheng Bingxi answered, surprised, "Why would I need to eavesdrop? You were yelling loud enough on your own."

Nangong Siyao blushed furiously, snapping, "Hmph! Feels good, so what if I moan? I can tell when you're the one making noise too, Sister Bingxi!"

Cheng Bingxi, "..."

*Looks like I better not be so loud next time. Gotta hold back!*

An hour later,

The three of them finally waited for Xiao Ye and Huangfu Xiangling to come out from the bedroom.

Huangfu Xiangling was walking along the wall for support, while Xiao Ye walked steadily, full of energy, head held high as if he had returned triumphant.

But as soon as he saw Cheng Bingxi in the living room giving him a strange look, his face changed, and he blurted out quickly,

"Bingxi, what brings you here? You didn't even tell me."

"If I knew, I would've rushed right out."
