CHAPTER 551: CHAPTER 551: THE TIME EMPRESS VISITED? (PLEASE FOLLOW)

*What the hell is going on?*

*Wasn’t Bai Mao’s body completely destroyed, her soul shattered beyond repair, and her will totally dissipated?*

*So why was she, alive and kicking, squatting inside the soul space right now?*

*The soul space could host living beings, but not for long—otherwise, there would be issues.*

Xiao Ye pulled Bai Mao out.

Bai Mao squatted on the ground, her little face pale with fright, mumbling nonstop,

"Xiao Ye, you bastard, you promised you’d marry me if I survived, now you’ve locked me up, must’ve changed your mind."

"And stupid Master, wanted to take my spot at the table or something."

"I didn’t get to eat at Master’s table, and Master almost took my seat instead!"

Xiao Ye, Ziran, and the Zi Family’s Saint Realm glanced at each other as they watched Bai Mao huddled there.

Xiao Ye’s mouth twitched, "Bai Mao, so you’re talking smack about me behind my back, better watch out, Sister Ziran’s petty, she might lock you up."

"!" Huangfu Xiangling jumped in shock, looked up, and was instantly stunned.

"I—I’m out?"

"Xiao Ye, I’m alive!"

She lunged toward him in delight, wrapping herself around Xiao Ye.

Xiao Ye supported her, "Yeah, you’re alive, but how? How did you make it?"

"We all thought there was no hope, some totally fatal scenario, just no way to save you."

Ziran was full of joy, stepping up to check her disciple’s condition.

She found Bai Mao in perfect shape, without a single wound on her, as if the terrifying strike from before had never happened, or that it had never happened at all.

The twin-tailed, white-haired maiden looked totally lost.

"I don’t know."

"All I remember was saying a few things to you, you promised to marry me, then I basically went to sleep."

"But when I opened my eyes again, I was totally fine."

Xiao Ye frowned, "Something’s off."

Bai Mao couldn’t have just come back to life for no reason, someone definitely intervened and saved her.

But a resurrection-type divine skill like this wasn’t just some blood-rebirth or healing with a Supreme Treasure, it was way more complicated.

When the soul was shattered and the will dissipated, there’d always be severe after-effects, even after recovery. But Bai Mao didn’t have any!

"Honey, who cares, I’m alive!"

The white-haired girl with twin tails beamed with joy, puckered her lips, and pressed them right onto his.

Xiao Ye, "!!"

He actually got kissed by force.

*Talk about guts, your Master Ziran’s right here, girl.*

The Zi Family’s Saint Realm elder averted their gaze, zoning out, but secretly gave a big thumbs-up.

*Young Master, you’re amazing!*

*Not only did you win over the Saintess, you also charmed her disciple to the point she’s totally head over heels!*

Ziran smiled faintly at the corner of her mouth. After all that happened, she’d changed her outlook.

*If her disciple liked Xiao Ye, so be it—let her marry him then!*

*Let the girl do as she wished.*

*Anyway, Xiao Ye already had so many Beast Girls, one more Bai Mao wouldn’t make any difference.*

Ten seconds later, Huangfu Xiangling shyly bowed her head,

"Xiao Ye, honey, you’ve already defiled me, you have to marry me—I’m never going to be able to show my face again otherwise."

"That was my first kiss, just now."

"Master said kissing would get you pregnant, now I’m gonna have your baby!"

Ziran was startled, "Did I ever say that?"

Xiao Ye savored the lingering sweetness, and just now he sensed a faint trace of the time rules on Bai Mao.

Time rules, time reversal, injuries gone, body restored.

His eyes lit up, saying,

"Bai Mao, I think I know how you came back from the dead."

Bai Mao and Ziran were both intrigued.

Xiao Ye’s gaze flashed with wisdom, "Time on your body reversed! From that moment you died, your time rewound to just before you were injured."

"Looks like someone used a time divine technique and saved you."

Ziran and Bai Mao were both dumbfounded.

The two glanced around, but saw no sign of any Great Power with time attribute present.

"But Xiangling’s memories are still intact," Ziran said, confused.

Xiao Ye’s eyes flickered brightly, "Maybe, it was someone even stronger than we can imagine, someone who’s mastered time to an incredibly precise degree."

The Space Ancestor Empress descended from the sky, landing beside Bai Mao.

She reached out to sense.

*That was my sister’s aura!*

"Sister was just here?"

"Damn, Sis’s realm’s gotten to a level I can only look up to!"

As the Space Ancestor Empress, she was peak third stage Emperor Realm—Great Perfection.

She’d been watching from high above just now, but she hadn’t sensed the Time Empress’s arrival at all, nor had she detected any trace of the Time Empress making a move.

*That says a lot about how far the Time Empress’s realm has gone.*

Xiao Ye and the others hadn’t noticed the Space Ancestor Empress standing beside them.

The Space Ancestor Empress looked at Xiao Ye holding the white-haired maiden and frowned.

*Hmph, we’re either fated to be mortal enemies or destined to be a couple.*

*But damn, you’re such a player!*

*You already have so many Beast Girls and here comes another one.*

She was super confident about her own appeal.

*But seeing Xiao Ye pick up another Beast Girl just made her feel weirdly pissed off.*

Just then, she was startled.

Xiao Ye looked in her direction!

*No way, he could see me?*

Xiao Ye sensed someone nearby, glanced over, but saw nothing.

The Space Ancestor Empress was secretly shocked,

*Was this Human Emperor-level perception, or the momentum of the Universe itself? A Venerable Realm nobody could actually sense her!*

*No exaggeration, even in front of ordinary Emperor Realm beings, she could be totally naked and they’d never see her.*

*But Xiao Ye almost spotted her!*

*Can’t underestimate the Human Emperor!*

The Empress put away her arrogance, and started seeing Xiao Ye as her equal.

Xiao Ye ruffled Bai Mao’s hair and said with a smile, "Once the Zi Family situation is handled, I’ll marry you as my tenth wife."

"From now on, just stay safe in the Zi Family’s camp and wait for me all clean and pretty."

Huangfu Xiangling was over the moon, planting a big kiss, "Okay!"

Xiao Ye used the Space-Time Hall to lock onto Bai Mao, granting her free access in and out. If she was ever in real danger, the hall would pull her into its inner world right away.

After letting Bai Mao down, Xiao Ye and Ziran turned their eyes back to the battlefield.

Right now, the Ouyang Clan Leader and fifteen Quasi-Emperor Realm beast elders were losing the will to fight and were ready to retreat back to the Ouyang Imperial Clan to close their borders and go into hiding.

But Zi Dao and his wife, transformed into platinum Taotie Giant Beasts, plus eighteen of the Zi Family’s Quasi-Emperor Realm beast elders, had already surrounded them.

Letting the Ouyang Imperial Clan go was definitely off the table.

The platinum Taotie said, "Ouyang Dingtian, bet you never thought of this, trying to wipe out my Zi Family’s Holy Race, only to doom your own clan in the end."

"Now, less than one in ten of the Ouyang Imperial Clan’s forces survive, your foundation’s utterly destroyed, and all you’ve got left are a bunch of small fry who can’t stir up trouble. Happy with that result?"

The blazing red Fire Salamander Giant Beast roared, "Zi Dao, it wasn’t even your Zi Family that took down my Ouyang Imperial Clan, why the hell are you so smug."

"Sure, our foundation’s gone, but our top levels of combat power are still here."

"You lot can’t finish us off, not even close."

"Be smart, let us go, or go for a fight to the death, and the other Holy Races are definitely going to take advantage."

Its eyes warily swept the Starry Sky Giant Beast hovering above.

Then, with a shudder, it glanced at Xiao Ye in the distance.
