Chapter 127: The True Identity of Mind-Reading Eye
Seeing the fox lady's attempts to cover it up, and looking at the remaining half of the tea, Luo Wusheng felt somewhat disheartened.
Was his tea really that bad?
Although he hadn't learned from the skilled masters in the tea houses, how difficult could it be to make tea? With his perfect memory that he gained upon reaching the Golden Core level, there should be no problem.
And he had even carefully chosen the best batch of tea leaves hidden in the inn just for the fox demoness. He even used different types of good tea leaves to diversify the taste. It shouldn't taste bad, right?
The crude and unrefined Luo Wusheng couldn't understand, so he decided to pour himself a cup of tea to try.
Well, his first thought was actually to pick up the cup that the fox lady had just drunk from and taste it, but his character didn't allow him to do that.
While pouring the tea, he said, "Since the lady put it this way, I do have some questions I'd like to ask Miss Yao Ji"
As he spoke, he had already filled the teacup and brought it to his lips.
Slowly taking a sip, his hand holding the teacup trembled slightly.
(Yuck, Next time, I should go to search Bai Xiaoyao on the art of tea making, this thing is barely drinkable)
After discreetly placing the tea, which was somewhat bitter and had a strange taste, to the side, and silently hiding the small teapot filled with tea under the table where it couldn't be seen, Luo Wusheng made a decision in his mind.
Waiting for this moment, the demon empress, who had been watching him, almost couldn't hold back her laughter.
To conceal her laughter, she bit her lip to hold back her facial expression and then nodded after suppressing the almost rising corners of her mouth, indicating that she was ready to answer his questions.
Seeing her struggle, Luo Wusheng's lips twitched.
He knew that he needed to quickly divert her attention now, or the fox lady might really burst into laughter.
So, he quickly came up with the first question he wanted to ask.
"Cough The first thing I'd like Miss Yao Ji to clarify is this thing"
Luo Wusheng extended his right hand.
And in the next moment, his aura suddenly changed. Between the opening and closing of his left eye, only a pitch-black void remained in his left eye, and blood-red eerie patterns appeared at the corner of his eye.
In the empty right palm of his hand, a shadow appeared, and then the intimidating-looking Mind-Reading Eye slowly appeared from that shadow.
At the sight of this eye, the expression on the demon empress's face, which had been somewhat amused, froze. When she looked at Luo Wusheng's current appearance, her smile completely disappeared, and even her beautiful, eerie red pupils began to tremble slightly.
"You you've tamed it?"
Her words trembled slightly, accompanied by the sound of her inhaling.
As the empress of the demon race, she rarely showed such a loss of composure.
But what was happening before her was something she found hard to believe.
"Tamed? Well maybe?"
Luo Wusheng scratched his head.
Did he really tame this eye?
Thinking carefully, this Mind-Reading Eye had now adapted very harmoniously with his spiritual power, and he had even gotten used to it being in his left eye Normally, when a treasure reached this stage, it would be considered tamed.
But he hadn't even had the chance to start using his spiritual power to nurture this eye, let alone try to integrate it into his body. Everything had been accomplished by the Mind-Reading Eye itself.
It could only be said that this thing had a maxed-out self-seduction level.
As he was pondering this, he saw that the expression on the demon empress's face had completely changed.
So he furrowed his brow and asked, "Is there a problem with this?"
"Phew"
The exquisite woman let out a long breath, shaking off her astonishment, and looked at the young man in front of her with a complex gaze. "Young sir really surprised me once again I never thought that it would actually be tamed one day And by a member of the human race no less!"
Countless thoughts about this eye flashed through the demon empress's mind. After a slight pause, she selected the parts she could reveal and decided where to start.
"Young sir should still remember the day of the opening ceremony of your demon artifact pavilion, right? I originally refused to perform the qin for you on that day because I didn't want to show myself in public so close to being unsealed But after the young sir defeated that ugly rat, I changed my mind."
"Because of this eye?"
Luo Wusheng quickly grasped the key to the question.
"Yes, that's right. After young sir collected it, I intended to have a private conversation with you and might have revealed my identity at that time. I would have tried to negotiate with the young sir to take it back from your hands. Unfortunately"
Unfortunately, Little Yuli and her junior sister intervened, and there was also that troublemaker friend sent by Yue Xuanji mixed in, almost turning it into a scenario that usually only happened in drama.
Thinking back to that incident that almost made him mentally exhausted, Luo Wusheng's eyes suddenly lit up. "So on that day, you chose to leave directly because of it?"
The answer to this question was quite obvious. After all, on that day, it was the Mind-Reading Eye that displayed their power before Yao Ji decided to leave.
Sure enough, Yao Ji nodded gently.
"Normally, it shouldn't be so easily controlled by others So, even though it accidentally went out of control that day, seeing young sir make it change in less than half an hour has changed my thoughts a bit, so I decided to leave it with young sir for the time being"
She made a strange expression on her face as she continued.
Although she had some expectations, as big as a speck of dust, to see if this thing would undergo any more changes in Luo Wusheng's hands, she never expected that he would directly refine it.
Did this valuable treasure of the demon race just betray them?
When Luo Wusheng heard the four words "accidentally out of control," he felt a bit uneasy but forced himself to stay calm and asked, "So, what is it exactly? Whose eye is it from among the great demons?"
Facing this question, Yao Ji shook her head gently. "Although there have been rumors within the demon race that it is the eye left behind by a great demon from ancient times, there is no evidence to confirm this, and there are no records of any great demon possessing the abilities of this eye. However, it is true that demon race members can be empowered by it, so the possibility of it being left behind by an ancient great demon is high"
"As for its name in legend, the ancestors of the demon race referred to it as the [Ancient Demon Eye]."
