CHAPTER 558: CHAPTER 558: THE FUTURE EMPRESS IS ALIVE? (PLEASE FOLLOW)

Xiao Ye and the others turned their eyes over, full of burning hope.

It felt like a ray of light shone into a world shrouded in darkness.

Seeing everyone’s expectant gaze, the Space Ancestral Empress shook her head blankly,

"No, I wasn’t the one who saved you."

"You all should have noticed too, the traces of time left on this twin-tailed white-haired maiden come from my sister, the Time Empress."

"Their situation was special, I couldn’t bring them back to life."

*Time Empress?*

*It was the first time Xiao Ye had heard this name. "Is she another Divine Spirit?"*

The Space Ancestral Empress nodded, "That’s right, the Time Empress was the will born from the Time Origin, the Divine Spirit who ruled over the Time Rules Origin on Blue Star."

Everyone’s pupils contracted.

The battle between the Zi Family and the Ouyang Imperial Race actually attracted the attention of three Divine Spirits.

The Five Elements Divine Spirit, Space Divine Spirit, and Time Divine Spirit behind the Ouyang Imperial Race.

The Space Ancestral Empress said, "This conflict among the hidden clans was the biggest war in Rule Realm’s history, tied to the surface-level structure of the Rule Realm itself."

"More than eighty percent of the Divine Spirits who returned from the stars were watching this."

"This was only the beginning!"

"The Five Elements Divine Spirit coveted the Rule Origin Essence of the Destiny Attribute behind the Zi Family, and so did many other Divine Spirits."

"If the Five Elements Divine Spirit went unpunished, I was afraid afterward, those weaker Divine Spirits or the Rule Origins without a master would be snatched away madly by Emperor Realm Rule Origin Divine Spirits."

Xiao Ye’s face turned grim, "This was a struggle among Divine Spirits, but it ended with my lover’s death."

"The Five Elements Divine Spirit—he should die!"

"Senior Ancestral Empress, may I ask where the Time Empress is? I want to find her."

Ziran, Yunxi, and Yun Bing still had grief on their faces, chiming in, "Yes, the Five Elements Divine Spirit deserves to die."

"Our top priority was to save Qingcheng. Could you tell us where Senior Time Empress was?"

"We wanted to save Qingcheng!"

"No matter which point in time Qingcheng was from, she had to live."

The Space Ancestral Empress glanced at the sky a few times but saw no sign of the Time Empress, and said bitterly,

"Her Realm was much higher than mine, so I didn’t know where she was, or even which place she might be."

"As the first Rule Origin Will born on Blue Star, the Time Empress’s Realm was the highest of all Blue Star Divine Spirits. Not only could I not find her, but no one could."

"Unless she showed up herself!"

Xiao Ye and the women felt their hearts sink.

*A terrifying Divine Spirit who came and went without a trace—her temperament was probably strange.*

*She might have saved Bai Mao casually once; wanting her to lend a hand a second time was asking too much.*

The Space Ancestral Empress changed her tone, "But you shouldn’t be too discouraged."

"You’re the Blue Star Human Emperor. My sister has taken notice of you before."

"If she knew what happened here, most likely she would lend a hand."

Ziran, Yun Bing, and Yunxi stared in a daze, "The Time Empress once paid attention to Xiao Ye?"

"Even such a powerful being would watch Xiao Ye?"

*They didn’t think a being like that could fancy Xiao Ye—that was impossible.*

*No matter how good Xiao Ye was, he could only improve his own template and solve his template issues.*

*But compared to Divine Spirits, he just seemed a bit ordinary.*

The Space Ancestral Empress thought of her own and her sister the Time Empress’s ambitions, and for some reason, her pretty face flushed red.

*They both wanted to become Xiao Ye’s wife.*

*To become the wife of the one destined for greatness in the Universe.*

*They said even the chickens and dogs would ascend when one man attained the Way. By following Xiao Ye, riding the wind of his fortune, they’d enter higher realms.*

*And the reason why she, the Space Ancestral Empress, wanted to be close to Xiao Ye was so she and her sister the Time Empress could always be together.*

"Buzz buzz buzz!"

Suddenly, Xiao Ye sensed a fluctuation from the Soul Capturing Pearl’s inner space.

Even though it was faint, as he always kept watch, he still noticed it.

His eyes turned crimson as he cried out in delight,

"Both Sister Qingchengs had soul fluctuations!"

Ziran, Yun Bing, and Yunxi, the three close friends, were overjoyed and hurried over.

"How’s Qingcheng—did she wake up?"

"She hasn’t woken up yet, still sleeping, and her soul body was still collapsing."

Xiao Ye said with a dark expression.

Everyone carefully interpreted the soul fluctuations; they seemed to express something unconscious.

*Or perhaps it was an obsession—maybe the two women were having nightmares, causing both Gu Qingchengs to stir within their souls.*

"Husband, following you—it’s so bitter."

The message they decoded alone made people feel that the words were filled with grief and bleakness.

The women’s eyes turned into knives, stabbing him fiercely.

Xiao Ye looked embarrassed and said, "There’s more soul fluctuation I haven’t interpreted yet."

Everyone continued interpreting,

"In the future, I stayed with Husband for nearly a hundred years, but Husband was cold to me, barely cared, left me alone for a hundred lonely years."

"Even if Husband provided for my cultivation resources so that I never wanted materially,"

"Did I ever need that?"

"Resources I could easily get on my own."

"What I needed was Husband’s love!"

"But in the future, Husband never loved me, never doted on me, save for the wedding night a hundred years ago."

"Watching Husband caressing his Beast Girls with such affection, I was just like an outsider, never enjoying a moment of Husband’s pampering."

"I, nothing but a lovelorn spectator, always longing for Husband’s love."

"Husband liked Jade Feet, Jade Feet without nails—I clipped my toenails every day, bathed, kept them spotless, but Husband never glanced at my Jade Feet."

"Husband liked black stockings, liked to hear that ripping sound as he tore open pretty black stockings—so I swapped my fitted ancient robes for the short skirts Husband liked to see."

"But Husband said I was asking for it, harshly criticized me, looked at me coldly."

"Every night I washed up and waited in bed for Husband to favor me, sent all sorts of messages to seduce Husband into coming to my room, but he never did—he just favored the other Beast Girls."

"Husband liked braised mermaid tail, liked plain clothes, liked kissing his Beast Girls in the morning, liked... over a thousand preferences."

"I knew all of them, more than any Beast Girl."

"But Husband, he never cared about me—in fact, he called me the wrong name, called me Ziran while looking at my back, again and again!"

"..."

Ziran, Yun Bing, and Yunxi narrowed their beautiful eyes, an extremely dangerous glint gathering on Xiao Ye.

"Xiao Ye, you really are something."

"Who would’ve thought you’d be like this."

"Sisters, get him—beat him to a pulp!"

The three women’s slender fingers cracked as they glared at him in anger.

The twin-tailed White-haired Maiden’s eyes also grew deep, flashing with thick disappointment.

"Xiao Ye, I must have misjudged you. I need to think about whether staying with you is really a reasonable choice!"

The Space Ancestral Empress’s eyes flashed cold as well.

Xiao Ye’s mouth twitched. He quickly spoke up,

"Stop!"

"Everyone, listen to me."

"Sister Qingcheng’s words didn’t match what happened with me!"

"My wives, you’ve been with me for so long—have I ever neglected you? Have I ever refused when you needed me?"

"Every Beast Girl of mine was precious to me, held in the palms of my hands, pampered with care."

"I never let down any Beast Girl."

"Sister Qingcheng’s soul fluctuation—there was something very strange about it!"
