Chapter 452: Chapter 452: Xiao Ye Takes Action, The Treasure-Seeking Compass Shows its Power! (Please Follow)

"There were rumors that on this planet, there existed a Supreme Treasure of Divine Soul repair at the Emperor Realm level. I immediately sent people to search for it, offering a high reward!"

Jiang Xue’an stepped back, coming in front of ten late-stage Quasi-Emperor Realm Deep Sea Giant Beasts. Her expression turned solemn, and the powerful pressure coursed from her, making the surrounding waters wail in pain.

She said sternly, "Pass down the order, search for the Divine Cultivation Treasure, anyone who finds it shall be heavily rewarded!"

The ten-thousand-meter-long Deep Sea Giant Beast received the order, and each of them voiced their loyalties,

"Understood, my Sea Shark clan will be the first to find it."

"Hmph, my Demon Whale clan is the strongest on Sea Blue Star. My people will present the Divine Cultivation Treasure to the Chief Commander."

"Heh, while you guys are arguing, I already contacted my people. The Demon Tiger Whale clan has already gone out searching!"

"Fuck, Demon Tiger Whales, you guys have no sense of martial honor."

"Chief Commander, we’ll go ahead."

Each late-stage Quasi-Emperor Realm Deep Sea Giant Beast rushed out toward all corners of the planet, scrambling to be the first for fear of falling behind and missing the opportunity.

Jiang Xue’an returned to Gu Qingcheng’s side and smiled, "Mistress, please don’t worry. With them taking action, the Emperor Realm Supreme Treasure is as good as ours."

In front of the Sea Beasts, she was the awe-inspiring Chief Commander, but before Xiao Ye and the others, she instantly became warm and approachable.

Gu Qingcheng, weak to the extreme, leaned on Ziran and asked in confusion,

"You’re a Starry Sky Giant Beast. What’s the relationship between you and these native Sea Beasts?"

Xiao Ye and Ziran also looked at her, puzzled.

Jiang Xue’an giggled, "I’m just the Chief, the Chief Commander who leads all the Sea Beast clans."

"After I woke up from my slumber, I found myself being worshiped by the Sea Beast Leaders, claiming I was the reincarnation of the Sea Race Ancestor."

"When I woke up, I was already at Quasi-Emperor Realm Perfection. After using force to subdue them, they became even more loyal to me and were even more convinced I was the reincarnation of the Sea Race Ancestor."

"As for why they thought I was their ancestor, I’m really not that sure."

Xiao Ye’s mouth twitched, *Jiang Xue’an really did seem a little ditzy. She had no clue yet went along being the Chief Commander.*

Ziran narrowed her eyes and speculated, "Maybe it’s connected to that time the Xiao Ye and Qingcheng from the future came back."

"Xiao Ye, didn’t you have the Innate Skill of the Nine-tailed Celestial Fox, the Mind Imprint?"

"If your future self, two thousand years ago, put a racial Mind Imprint into the ancestors of these Sea Beasts, letting them protect Jiang Xue’an—the Starry Sky Giant Beast—all the way up until now..."

Xiao Ye was a bit surprised, "Sister Ziran, your analysis was spot on. That could actually be the case."

"If I really saved a little pet with deep potential, I’d definitely try to keep her safe as she grew up. The Mind Imprint, at my high realm, maybe I really could place it on an entire race—the whole Sea Race."

Ziran glanced at Gu Qingcheng, who was being supported by Jiang Xue’an, and said, "Xue Nan, let Xiao Ye support her. He’s a man after all, and hasn’t done anything here. We need to let him find something to do."

"Qingcheng and I are just in underwear, and he got to feast his eyes enough already."

Jiang Xue’an nodded after hearing this and said, "The Lord and Mistress are so loving. The Lord must be terribly worried right now."

She handed Gu Qingcheng over to Xiao Ye, making Gu Qingcheng passively collapse onto him.

Xiao Ye felt the soft, limp Gu Qingcheng and hurried to hug her slender waist, saying, "Sister Qingcheng, you don’t have to worry. We will help you find a high-level Supreme Treasure to repair your Divine Soul."

*This really felt amazing.*

*The Hang City Empress was simply irresistible.*

Xiao Ye looked down, pupils shrinking instantly—he saw two magnificent, towering mountains.

*Those valleys in between really looked like abysses—bottomless depths.*

Gu Qingcheng sensed his gaze and blushed, but didn’t resist and asked, "Xiao Ye, can I rest my head on your shoulder?"

"Don’t get the wrong idea. I’m just tired and want to lean for a bit."

Xiao Ye laughed, "Sure."

Gu Qingcheng’s face flushed and her heart thumped wildly as she rested her head on Xiao Ye’s shoulder.

Soon, she spoke up, "Ziran, you don’t mind, do you?"

Ziran’s face burst into a smile and she shook her head hard, "I don’t mind, of course I don’t mind."

*She actually wanted to clap her hands in delight on the inside.*

*This stubborn girl Qingcheng—if only she could bloom, like an iron tree flowering, life would be perfect.*

Jiang Xue’an glanced at Ziran and Gu Qingcheng, finally noticing the two were only in underwear, all pale skin when viewed from the side.

She immediately called out,

"I want to strip too!"

Under Xiao Ye’s shocked gaze, she took off her Broad-Sleeved Flowing Immortal Skirt, exposing her transformed body.

"!"

The three of them were stunned.

"How come you’re not wearing underwear?"

Jiang Xue’an wasn’t the least bit shy. She naturally raised her arms and spun around, giggling, "Lord, Mistress, is my transformed look pretty?"

Xiao Ye looked and felt his blood roiling inside. *This scenery was just too gorgeous.*

Ziran hurriedly took out some of her own underwear from her storage ring and tossed it to Jiang Xue’an, saying, "Hurry up, put these on."

Jiang Xue’an muttered in confusion, "Why do I have to wear these?"

But she still did as Ziran told her.

But halfway through, she realized Ziran’s underwear was too small and wouldn’t fit at all.

Ziran was a little embarrassed—she was just too petite.

Gu Qingcheng took out her own from her storage ring and tossed it to Jiang Xue’an—a lacy one, "Wear this. Mine should fit you better."

Jiang Xue’an took it, switching out Ziran’s, but fumbled with the straps on the back, unable to reach.

"Lord, help me out, I can’t reach."

She came up to Xiao Ye, her pretty face a little troubled, "You used to help Mistress tie these all the time. Can you help me too?"

Gu Qingcheng blushed, *Her future self actually let Xiao Ye help her with that?*

Xiao Ye swallowed hard, wanting to help, but spotted Ziran’s deadly, murderous glare and quickly shook his head, saying,

"Let Ziran help you. I’m not tying that."

Once dressed, Jiang Xue’an dog-paddled through the water.

Xiao Ye watched, feeling like she was some goofy little pet—doggy through and through.

Time slowly passed, four hours later.

*Gu Qingcheng grew more and more anxious. The longer this dragged on, the closer she came to the moment her body would explode. If Old Gu still hadn’t woken up, what was she supposed to do?*

*Old Gu said her body would explode because of template problems. Template problems were century-level mysteries—she had no way to handle that.*

"Xiaonannan, did you get any information from the Sea Race? Did you find any high-level Divine Soul repairing treasures?" she asked aloud.

Jiang Xue’an shook her head, "Nope."

"Mistress, you’re anxious, huh? This sort of thing, I figure, would take at least half a month, otherwise there’s no way to find it."

"That Divine Cultivation Treasure is only rumored to exist. Where exactly in Sea Blue Star it might be came from, still has to be investigated."

Gu Qingcheng’s face became despairing.

*She also had a Supreme Treasure to repair Divine Souls, but it was only at the Venerable Level. Earlier, she placed the Venerable Level Divine Soul Supreme Treasure beside Old Gu’s Treasure of Space-Time, but there was no reaction from Old Gu at all.*

*Old Gu’s Divine Soul level was probably so high that the Venerable Level Supreme Treasure couldn’t help her. It had to be a higher-level Supreme Treasure.*

Xiao Ye’s rough big palm hugged Gu Qingcheng’s slender waist, feeling how soft and tender her skin was. He spoke,

"Xiaonannan, what’s the name of that Divine Cultivation Treasure? What are its features? Tell me in detail, maybe, I could have a way to find it in ten minutes."

Gu Qingcheng frowned, "Xiao Ye, are you kidding? Find it in ten minutes?"

Ziran patted her on the shoulder and smiled, "Xiao Ye never lies. If something exists in the world, he can find it."

Gu Qingcheng was shaken.
