Chapter 430: Chapter 430: Empress: I’m Actually Not His Equal! (Please Follow)*Mainly, her future self hyped this guy up so much that even she, right now, was just a total nobody in his presence.* As a top-tier Great Power at Great Perfection in the Saint Realm, she could have gone toe-to-toe with a Quasi-Emperor at Great Perfection if she used her exclusive Talent Skills. *Her future self would know that very well, too.* But even so, her future self still said that she, right now, wasn’t as good as this man! In Gu Qingcheng’s eyes, Xiao Ye seemed to be shrouded in a veil of mystery, suddenly making him seem enigmatic and high-level. Like a goddess wrapped in layers of sheer silk, tempting people to pull away those barely-there veils one by one, just to finally catch a glimpse of the beautiful figure beneath. In her mind, future Gu Qingcheng saw her stunned look, put her hands on her hips, and grinned smugly as she boasted, "Hahaha, see that? My husband’s skills are just too much for you to sense, aren’t they." "Hehe, not just you right now, even if I gave you ten years, you couldn’t figure it out. That’s the kind of overwhelming power we’re talking about." Gu Qingcheng wiped away her shocked expression, the corner of her mouth twitching. *Seriously, is this just showing off?* *And that’s ’your husband.’* *Her future self actually had the nerve to brag about a man to her own face.* *Was she even Gu Qingcheng anymore?* "Shut up, you woman whose man makes her lips twitch!" "From now on, don’t call yourself Gu Qingcheng, you’ll embarrass me!" Future Gu Qingcheng just scoffed dismissively, "What a frog at the bottom of the well, you damn bumpkin." Gu Qingcheng: "..." *Roasted by her own future self again.* *She was the Hang City Empress, after all, and even her future self looked down on her!* *This was tragic!* "Hmph, that guy definitely used some Quasi-Saint Level Supreme Treasure, some sneaky, super subtle artifact—it’s not like this was his own strength." Gu Qingcheng snorted coldly. This man next to her looked all harmless and ordinary—she couldn’t sense a hint of Attack Power or anything particularly impressive about him. Next to her, Ziran scooted closer to Xiao Ye and whispered, "Did you upgrade the resources?" Xiao Ye nodded, "The Creation Attribute one’s done." "The Devouring Attribute one isn’t ready yet, do you have fifty of those?" Ziran shook her head, "After I hit the Saint Realm, I’ve stuck by your side. How would I have time to collect those?" "You’re so OP, just help me out, yeah?" "If I go mess around in Chaotic Space, it’ll take me a month or two, at least." She hooked Xiao Ye’s arm and whined in a cutesy voice. Xiao Ye felt like his bones turned to jelly just listening to her, hurrying to reply, "Okay, since you’re my Beast Girl, I’ll help you, but I have one condition." Ziran’s gorgeous eyes lit up, "What kind of condition?" Xiao Ye leaned in close to her delicate ear, blew a soft breath, and whispered sneakily, "When I reward you tonight, call me Daddy." Ziran’s pretty face went blank. She looked at Xiao Ye strangely, lips twitching like she wanted to say something. Their conversation was quiet, but as a Great Power in the Saint Realm, Gu Qingcheng could hear every word crystal clear. *Reward you, satisfy you—she knew exactly what those words meant.* "There’s no way Ziran would ever agree to that." "How could she possibly say something that embarrassing out loud!" *She muttered to herself in her head.* But then, Ziran turned her flushed face and nodded, "No problem. As long as it’s you, Xiao Ye, I’ll call you whatever you want." Xiao Ye grinned, saying that made him wide awake. His eyes sparkled, and his whole vibe perked up as he said, "Sister Ziran, if you keep spoiling me like this, I’ll get carried away." "This time I have you call me Daddy, next time who knows, my demands might get even kinkier." Ziran heard that and her pretty face got excited instead. She shot back, "So you’ve got better moves up your sleeve? Well, don’t keep them to yourself, show me everything." "You know, we’ve got a shared hobby, we both love watching those action art movies." "Uh...," Xiao Ye suddenly realized. *Right! Ziran’s watched a ton of those little movies; of course she’d be into that stuff I just said. Actually, crap, not just not ’into it’—she’s super into it!* *Damn! What’s going on in that little head of hers is probably even kinkier than I imagined.* Gu Qingcheng looked away. Her stunningly beautiful, dignified face was now bright red, her cheeks burning with blush. *When she was little, Ziran had led her astray, too, getting her hooked on those action art movies.* *This weird little kink stuck with her to this day.* *Wait, what? That shouldn’t be my focus.* *Ziran actually agreed to that!* *Damn, was this guy really that charming? Even Ziran let him make her lips twitch—all she did was go along with whatever he said.* In her mind, her Divine Soul’s voice piped up, sounding all jealous and sour, like she’d bitten into ten lemons and it stung her teeth. "Hmph, that little hussy, she sure knows how to seduce my man." "It’s just those action art movies—I’ve watched way more than her, and I know just as many moves!" "Ugh, but my husband just hates me, ignores me, and leaves me all alone every damn night." Gu Qingcheng’s ears felt like they were on fire just hearing that. *Forget her future self, even her current self had watched plenty of those little movies—and she knew just as many moves as Ziran...maybe even more...* *She clenched her teeth and snapped in her mind,* "You horny old hag, shut up already!" "Even if I know a million tricks, I’d never use them—I have too much pride for all those humiliating things just to please a man." "Ha, I’m the Hang City Empress, I’m Gu Qingcheng!" Divine Soul Gu Qingcheng replied speechlessly, "You’ve already seen how impressive he is, but you still think you’re all that." "Ziran just said it, it’s his power. I get it if you don’t believe me—but you don’t even believe Ziran now, huh?" Gu Qingcheng froze, falling silent. *So... that guy’s moves weren’t actually from some Supreme Treasure, but his own powers?* After Ziran and Xiao Ye had whispered for a bit, they finally noticed the Hang City Empress was still standing there beside them. Ziran looked a little awkward, "Why are you still here?" Xiao Ye let out a whistle, eyes wandering off, looking everywhere but at her. Gu Qingcheng’s mouth twitched. *Did I just become a third wheel?* She said helplessly, "I can’t hang out here?" Ziran nodded, "Sure, just don’t eavesdrop when we’re whispering, okay?" Gu Qingcheng’s mouth twitched again, "You don’t actually think I’m the kind of person who’d eavesdrop, do you?" Ziran laughed, all that awkwardness vanishing in a flash. Yeah, with the Hang City Empress’s personality, there’s no way she’d stoop so low as to overhear all those dirty lines they’d just whispered. "We’re planning to go slay some Devouring Attribute Demon Beasts. Qingcheng, do you know which Secret Realm has them?" Ziran asked. Gu Qingcheng thought for a second and replied, "Devouring ones? There’s some in Special Secret Realm No. 23." Ziran’s face brightened, "Xiao Ye, let’s go to Special Secret Realm No. 23, then!" Xiao Ye nodded, "Sure." He glanced at Gu Qingcheng, an odd look on his face. This Gu Qingcheng had her whole aura on point, sharp and imposing, totally different from how mellow and friendly she’d been when she apologized earlier. It was like the Gu Qingcheng from before was the approachable big-sister next door, while this one was the overbearing, powerful Hang City Empress. Gu Qingcheng suddenly pulled Ziran off to the side, shot Xiao Ye a look, and sent her a private sound transmission, "Ziran, what Realm is your husband actually in? What’s his Beastmaster Talent Level?" Ziran furrowed her brows, thought about it—a little gossip wouldn’t hurt between besties—then grinned, "Him? Second Tier Great Venerable." "As for Beastmaster Talent, he’s just a little better than you. A few hundred times better. SSS level and up—he’s got the Mythical Talent." "Oh, and by the way, he’s only eighteen, and he’s been cultivating for less than a year. Don’t think his Realm is low right now—give it a second, and he’ll leave us both in the dust!" An eighteen-year-old Great Venerable? With Mythical Level Beastmaster Talent? Gu Qingcheng’s eyes widened, her pretty face went blank, and she was just completely stunned. Ziran would never lie to her, so that meant this guy really was just that insanely gifted. *Me, the Hang City Empress, actually couldn’t even compare to him!*
