Qin Yi finally just sat on the ground, hands propping up his chin, gazing longingly at those two drops of essence blood, almost drooling.
The bandit factor in his bones started acting up.
"Hold it in, you have to hold it in. Old Qin is a decent guy. Old Ning... although he's a jerk, not good looking and with poor character, considering Old Qin, let's just pretend he's human too."
Qin Yi muttered to himself.
Unbeknownst to him, Ning Tian, hidden in the dark, had a gloomy face. If Qin Mu hadn't been holding him back, he would have probably rushed out to beat Qin Yi into a pig's head by now.
"Damn it, out of sight, out of mind. Can't look anymore, or I really won't be able to hold back."
Qin Yi got up, turned around, and walked away with big strides. Yet when he stepped down the stone platform, he couldn't help but glance back for a mont, muttering, "This thing is really nice-looking."
Seeing Qin Yi leave.
Qin Mu and Ning Tian appeared.
The two of them stared at the direction Qin Yi left, their mouths curling up at the sa ti.
"Old Qin, it seems you were right. This kid isn't a bad guy."
"I'm always spot-on when judging people."
Ning Tian glanced at him, full of disdain, "Looks like you can't change your narcissistic habit."
Qin Mu shrugged, then seriously said, "The fact that he resisted such a huge temptation shows his ntal fortitude and a good heart. But we still need to find out what's up with that evil aura in his eyes."
...
...
Qin Yi returned to the lakeside and continued cultivating his Divine Thought.
Qin Mu and Ning Tian returned as well, not disturbing him.
The next morning.
While having breakfast, Qin Yi curiously asked, "You two are just Divine Thoughts, do you still need to eat? At your level, can't wind, frost, rain, and dew all serve as food?"
"Between delicious food and wind, frost, rain, and dew, what would you choose?" Ning Tian looked full of contempt.
Qin Yi: "..."
Makes sense, he would also choose delicious food.
Qin Mu said, "Qin Yi, I need to ask you sothing, and you must answer truthfully."
"Hmm?" Qin Yi saw his serious expression and was curious, "Go ahead, I promise to speak frankly and keep no secrets. Wait, I an leave nothing unsaid."
"What's with the evil aura in your eyes?"
Qin Yi looked bewildered, "What evil aura?"
"Every ti you're pushed to the brink, there's a terrifying evil aura in your eyes, didn't you know?"
"Really?" Qin Yi ran to the lakeside and looked at his reflection on the water, craning his neck, looking left and right, up and down, his eyes like stars, stunningly beautiful, where's the evil aura?
Qin Yi returned, "Are you guys bored or sothing? Evil aura? Have you seen such beautiful eyes before?" Saying that, he even threw a flirtatious glance at the two.
Qin Mu and Ning Tian shuddered in disdain.
"Qin Yi, you really didn't notice at all?" Qin Mu asked.
Qin Yi frowned slightly, "Are you serious?"
"Nonsense, you think we're joking with you? We've been observing you for two days, do you think we'd ask if we weren't sure?"
Seeing their serious expressions, Qin Yi realized it wasn't a joke. His heart skipped a beat, could it be because of the Eye of Righteous and Evil?
"Qin Yi, we've been observing you for two days. Whenever you're in dire straits, a terrifying evil aura appears in your eyes. Didn't you feel anything?"
Qin Yi shook his head slowly.
"Moreover, I feel there's a very powerful force inside you, but can't find the source."
Qin Mu paused, "I need to do a thorough check on you. This aura is too terrifying, I'm afraid it might harm you."
"No need, what harm could there be?" Qin Yi laughed.
Qin Mu and Ning Tian squinted slightly, looking at Qin Yi.
Qin Yi's heart tightened, he let it slip.
"You're lying to us?" Qin Mu said.
With a sigh of resignation, Qin Yi said, "Okay, I'll tell you everything. I don't know about an evil aura, but it's surely related to my eyes."
Qin Yi recounted the story from start to finish, but concealed the part about acquiring the Eye of Righteous and Evil and opening the gates of disaster.
Qin Mu and Ning Tian listened, exchanging glances, not expecting Qin Yi's story to be so convoluted.
"So, everything about you is brought by the Eye of Righteous and Evil."
Qin Yi nodded slightly, smiling bitterly, "Without the Eye of Righteous and Evil, I'd still be a cripple."
"You said there's a powerful force in with no source, it should be the power of the Eye of Righteous and Evil. Every ti in critical monts, when the ferocity surges, I lose my sanity. However, this power has saved my life several tis, it's my greatest trump card."
"But every advantage has a disadvantage, each ti I use the Eye of Righteous and Evil, I go blind. Only when I breakthrough next ti will my eyes recover."
Qin Yi told his biggest secret to Qin Mu and Ning Tian, whose cultivation level had reached the Emperor Realm, not likely to covet the Eye of Righteous and Evil. Besides, after these two days together, they could selflessly guide him, proving their character from this point alone.
Moreover, he too really wanted to know what exactly the Eye of Righteous and Evil was?
Every ti ferocity suppressed reason, he would worry. Losing reason, doing things even he couldn't control.
He also feared that one day he might lose his mind and do sothing irreversible.
"Do you know what the Eye of Righteous and Evil actually is?" Qin Yi asked.
Qin Mu said, "Qin Yi, if we can, we'd like to check it out."
Qin Yi nodded, "No problem, how should I cooperate?"
"We need you to demonstrate the Eye of Righteous and Evil once."
Qin Yi opened his mouth wide and then said, "Using the Eye of Righteous and Evil, I'll go blind."
"Didn't you say your eyes will return to normal after breaking through a level?"
"But I just broke through, no idea when the next ti will be?"
Qin Mu smiled, "Don't worry, you've been sparring with us for the past two days, your foundation is solid. Breaking through another level won't impact your foundation."
"I'm talking about breaking through, such things depend on opportunities, not sothing you can do just because you want to."
"Don't worry, we have a way to get you to break through a level in a short period."
Qin Yi's eyes lit up, "Really?"
"Nonsense, why would we lie to you? With your asly cultivation, is breaking through a level that hard?" Ning Tian sneered.
With an excited heart and trembling hands, Qin Yi said enthusiastically, "What are we waiting for then? Let's get started."
Qin Mu nodded slightly, "Let's begin. Use the power of the Eye of Righteous and Evil, I want to see how strong it is."
"Both of you better step back, the power of the Eye of Righteous and Evil isn't to be taken lightly. Even if you're in the Emperor Realm, now you're just ford from Divine Thoughts, don't accidentally get injured."
Ning Tian sneered, "What technique hasn't this Emperor seen? Hurry up, stop dawdling."
Qin Yi moved forward, glaring fiercely at the distant mountain, trying his best to imagine it as an arch-enemy.
"Ugh... ah... hmm..."
Qin Yi's face turned red from straining, making strange tones with his mouth. But a mountain is just a mountain, no matter what he couldn't imagine it as an arch-enemy.
