Chapter 84

I agree.

Su Yuan replied via sound transmission.

Agree.

Mo Jun also had no objection.

The three then sought an opportunity to meet secretly and discuss the details.

Shen Yuan and the three were completely unaware of this, while Shen Duo was still saying, "Just now I saw my son's name fading; I thought he was going to die."

Shen Yuan glared at him, "Do you curse your own son like that?"

"I've observed that the people whose name changes correspond to A Mo's are these few."

Shen Kuo took out a small notebook; its neat, elegant handwriting clearly read: Mo Buyi, Chen Nianci, Zhao Fengyun, Zhen Bijing, and others.

This list consists of the sixteen disciples from the three sects who participated in the siege of Shen Qing Mo, except the three who initially self-destructed upon arrival, whom Shen Kuo did not include; the rest were listed.

"Why is Bai Piaopiao drawing circles?" Shen Duo wondered.

It must be a live captive left by A Li for interrogation.

Needless to say, a father knows his daughter best; Shen Kuo understood the little lady's behavior patterns completely.

"The three sects have indeed joined forces." Shen Yuan pinched his brow, "It seems they came prepared, but the Primordial Chaos Sect obviously left some leeway."

"Not bad; although Zhao Fengyun is the chief disciple of Old Man Li, he has long been abandoned by him." Shen Duo had been away from the family lately, investigating the Primordial Chaos Sect's internal secrets.

The Longwater Shen clan, up and down, are not mindless braves; the three sects already fear them—how could they not know? How could they lack precautions?

They all understand the principle of thinking of danger while in safety, and that an innocent man who carries a jade invites guilt.

"Make arrangements; immediately use our hidden agents in the other two sects to spread this news."

"Okay." Shen Duo understood that the eldest brother intended to sow discord among the three sects.

Although the Longwater Shen clan is united and strong, two fists can't fight four hands; it would be unwise to be ganged up on by others.

But although their arrangements were meticulous and should certainly work, the three sects' leaders' plan is obviously more vicious! There's likely no time for their scheme to take effect.

But at this very moment, Shen Qingli was guarding her San Ge while studying the pupil technique.

Fortunately, Shen Qing Tong was also there; if she didn't understand something, she could ask directly.

"Little sister, your comprehension is too great." Shen Qing Tong exclaimed admiringly.

The more they communicated, the more he wondered whether he had passed the pupil technique to his little sister, or she was teaching him.

Shen Qingli gave a light laugh, "I've just familiarized myself with it through my own pondering, so I can think more deeply."

Those words made Shen Qing Tong feel heartbroken.

Why would she have familiarized herself with it on her own?

He understood, because she had an extraordinary mother and master.

Zhao Yue took the little sister under her wing solely to enslave and exploit her.

Pa-da.

A drop of tear fell.

Shen Qingli froze?

She lifted her head to look at her ninth brother.

Shen Qing Tong hastily wiped her eyes, "How could there be such a harsh mother."

Shen Qingli was even more dumbfounded; was this because she felt sorry for her and cried?

But Shen Qing Tong truly couldn't control himself; he had been thoughtful since childhood, and although he improved somewhat as he grew up, his empathic ability remained the best among the brothers—in short, he had the tendency to be a crybaby.

Seeing him cry harder and harder, Shen Qingli was at a loss, "I'm fine, Ninth Brother,"

"How could you be fine?" Shen Qing Tong raised a hand to hide his fluster, "Don't mind me; let me calm down."

After he quickly composed himself, he lowered his hand and looked at Shen Qingli, "No matter what happened before, from now on, if you have any problems, you can ask us. Whether it's me, other brothers, or anyone in the clan, we will hold nothing back."

"I know." Shen Qingli had already felt it.

In the ancient Shen manor of Longwater City, every family member showed her the utmost love and sincerity.

"Anything else you don't understand?" Shen Qing Tong asked again.

Shen Qingli then asked for more details, and already had a rough idea of her cultivation path in mind.

"Go ahead and cultivate; I'll watch over San Ge here." Shen Qing Tong said again.

"Mm." Shen Qingli nodded; with Jiu Li present, she wasn't worried.

However, the seal on Jiu Li's body is a problem; if she can't resolve it before leaving the Ten Directions Forest, she'll just have to make do with it.

But the divine seal is truly too complex; although she inherited the legacy and can see the seal on Jiu Li, she still has no clue how to undo it.

So she decided to set it aside for now and first master the pupil technique.

In the Demon Doctor's legacy, there is indeed the Innate Primordial Holy Eye, which lets her see more clearly than others, easily allowing her to 'see' the lesions and roots of illness.

The two strands of purple qi that initially entered Shen Qingli's eyes were what helped her forge this pair of divine eyes.

But with such excellent eyes, are they only for looking at illness?

Shen Qingli already felt it a bit wasteful; although this time she could 'see' her third brother in danger, she couldn't assist from afar, which only strengthened her resolve to cultivate the pupil technique! She must make her eyes better able to 'save' people.

Huh?

Shen Qing Tong, who was adding firewood to the bonfire, was surprised.

He looked her up and down for a while, confirming she had truly entered an enlightened state, and grew even more astonished.

"Little sister, not only is your comprehension excellent, your state of mind is extremely stable; you can enter the optimal cultivation state so quickly."

Enlightenment is a state that ordinary cultivators find hard to enter; it requires not only talent and comprehension, but also a steady heart and tranquil spirit.

Even in the Longwater Shen clan, a gathering of geniuses, not everyone can enter meditation as efficiently as Shen Qingli.

But what shocked him even more was the scene that unfolded——

On Shen Qingli's body, the mysterious dark patterns began to appear again.

"This, this is,"

"Beautiful~"

Compared to Shen Qingtong's stammering, Jiu Li had already lain on Shen Qingli's leg, breathing in the mysterious aura emanating from her.

Its favorite!

With this, it no longer drools over Xi Xi.

Shen Qingtong stopped speaking, and he finally understood!

Why do the elders value it so much and yet believe that the clearly youngest sister?

"Metal, wood, water, fire, earth, light, darkness, wind, thunder."

The nine primal sources that could encompass the world, little sister has already mastered six of them!

Among them, darkness is the hardest to comprehend, yet little sister has already comprehended it.

What's even more shocking to Shen Qingtong is that he cannot sense any dark currents surging around.

"This is not ordinary dark power." Shen Qingtong declared firmly!

And Shen Qingli, she had been slowly gathering the mysterious dark power that ordinary people cannot resonate with into her eyes.

Also being gathered at the same time was the Hongmeng purple qi.

Cultivating the Immortal-Demon Transformation, she had gained considerable insight into merging two vastly different powers.

Shen Qingtong's pupil technique, the essence of the Immortal-Demon Transformation, the two top powers collide!

Upon Shen Qingli's double pupils, covering their eyelids, purple-black secret patterns emerged.

"!"

Shen Qingtong dared not breathe while watching!

He didn't know what Shen Qingli was doing!

But he was certain it was far more than just practicing his "trash" pupil technique.

In fact…

Above the Ten Directions Forest.

Because of the divine seal blocking it, Shen Qingtong couldn't see, but a pair of mysterious divine eyes slowly opened.

From blurry to clear.

From closed to half-covered.

"What is that!"

Having just finished their secret discussion, the Hunyuan Sect Leader, preparing to act immediately, pointed at the firmament and asked.

Su Yuan, Mo Jun, and the other high-level figures of the eighteen forces who weren't with them but also saw those giant eyes, all fell silent.

That pair was incredibly huge!

The violet-pupiled black eyes that spanned the entire firmament opened fully.

At the same moment…

The Hunyuan Sect Leader who pointed at those giant eyes turned to ashes.

Heaven and earth fell dead silent!

No one dared to breathe, all staring at those eerie giant eyes.
