Chapter 218: Double Pupils, Unmatched Power, Why Borrow Others' Bones? (Part 2)

The Shi Clan is no weaker than the Feathered Clan...

What more, sigh.

"Want to see through someone's true strength?"

Shi Qi spoke up.

Lin Fan and Long Ao Jiao narrowed their eyes, both staring intently at the boy.

"This kid has some issues," Long Ao Jiao whispered, "But he's very strong."

Simultaneously, a surge of battle intent rose within her.

She felt the battle intent boiling!

"Among our peers, except for me, no one can match him!"

Lin Fan: "..."

"You're really good at boasting."

He smirked, "What about my disciple?"

Long Ao Jiao's lips parted, about to speak, but hesitated, "Currently, perhaps Ya Ya can compete with him."

"What about Lu Ming?" Lin Fan asked again.

"Why bring him up?"

Long Ao Jiao grew irritated, "Annoying!"

"Do you have confidence?"

"Don't let him see through you."

"What confidence?"

The two had already set up a soundproof barrier, so they weren't worried about being overheard. Long Ao Jiao sighed, "Now I'm truly Long Ao Jiao!"

"Wait, you're worried about me?"

Lin Fan: "..."

"You're acting more and more like a woman."

"Of course, I'm a woman now!"

"I'm not talking about your appearance and actions, but... the way you think and approach problems is..."

"Nonsense!"

Long Ao Jiao disagreed, "Don't talk nonsense, it's not true."

"You're right, you're right. You're always right."

Lin Fan rolled his eyes.

"But this boy's aura is intense, not weaker than you, no, it's even stronger than Long Ao Jiao!"

"You've met your match."

"Huh?"

Long Ao Jiao furrowed her brows, "He's not up to par."

"Far inferior to Long Ao Jiao."

...

"That girl."

Despite feeling a bit annoyed by Shi Qi's coldness and arrogance, she still needed his help. She decided, "We just need to figure out if she's a man or a woman, and that's it."

"Mhm."

Shi Qi nodded slightly.

Then, his eyes slowly opened.

Buzz...

An indescribable aura filled the room.

Everyone who witnessed this scene was shocked! What kind of eyes were those!

Brilliant, dazzling...

Though they seemed demonic, the feeling they gave off was incredibly sacred!

The Double Pupil appeared, golden light radiating.

Various divine patterns and immortal light emerged, and an unknown Dao rhyme circulated, just in terms of aura, it far surpassed the Evil Eye Golden Eagle King by several levels!

"Double Pupil?!"

Both Lin Fan and Long Ao Jiao were stunned.

Even they couldn't remain calm at this moment.

But...

The reason for their astonishment differed.

For Long Ao Jiao, the reputation of Double Pupil cultivators was too great and renowned! Not to mention in the Immortal Martial Continent, even in the Overgod Divine Emperor legacy he obtained, in that mighty Divine Realm, Double Pupil cultivators were at the pinnacle!

As for Lin Fan...

It was because the other was a 'Double Pupil' cultivator!

"Hiss!"

"A Double Pupil cultivator has appeared!"

"Can a Supreme Bone youth be far away?"

Though it was just a guess...

Perhaps it wasn't the Double Pupil template...

But what if it was?

"Damn..."

He couldn't help but curse.

"If this is the 'complete' one, as I said, it's the Golden Supreme, even without the 'Iron Triangle,' at least it should be one of the Three Supreme!

"The Supreme Emperor, Ye Heikan, Chu Canzi..."

"If there's a template, there can't be just one of them."

"There were no clues before, making it hard to find."

"Now..."

"I must take action."

"If there's such a Supreme Bone youth, I must bring him under my wing, at the very least, I must befriend him, absolutely cannot make an enemy of him and go against him!"

"Absolutely not!"

This wasn't Lin Fan being timid.

Nor was he being cowardly.

Question?

Pfft!

Anyone who questioned... didn't they understand the weight of the word 'Supreme' in the xuanhuan genre?

In all xuanhuan novels, there's an undisputed ceiling to the protagonist's strength, and that name is Supreme!

Just as Tang Divine King is recognized as the floor, Supreme is recognized as the ceiling.

At least, one of the ceilings!

Even if you don't believe he's the strongest, even if you think others might be stronger, as long as you've read the original, you can't deny his qualification to stand atop the ceiling, as one of the mightiest!

This is the strength of the Supreme Emperor!

Speaking of protagonist temperament...

Supreme Emperor is as hard as they come.

His style is unmatched.

In comparison...

Even the Flame Emperor, Qin Yu, Xu Fenglai, or even Ya Ya and Long Ao Tian, would have to bow down!

Solely, a thought is a world...

Even without mentioning the future, in his growth period, behind him stands an ancient Immortal King, a giant...

Impossible to kill, even if killed, he can revive.

Transcending challenges like eating and drinking, breaking countless records, countless talents can only gaze at his back, until he's out of sight!

Even in the original, Double Pupil cultivators, these born Supremes, were all defeated and killed by him!!!

Who the hell would dare provoke such an existence?

In any case, Lin Fan didn't want to.

Provoking a Supreme is a hundred times worse than provoking a hundred million... well, can't compare with Tang Divine King, that's an insult to the Supreme Emperor.

Can't insult the Supreme Emperor like that.

In any case, can't provoke, must find a way to win him over.

"However, for now, I still have no clue, but I do have a bit of an idea now."

Lin Fan stared at Shi Qi, his gaze intense.

"If this Double Pupil cultivator carries the fate of the eleventh, then as long as I 'follow him,' I'll find the youth Supreme Emperor!"

"But, this is too slow.

"So, we have to figure out his identity and trace it back."

"I wonder if there's a Shi Village in this world too?"

"And there's even a thunderbolt striking wood at the village entrance?"

"Huff..."

The sudden appearance of the Double Pupil was truly astonishing.

Lin Fan finally calmed down and exhaled a breath of turbid air.

It was at this moment that Shi Qi retracted his gaze and said, "A woman."

However, his face showed a hint of surprise, but he didn't say more.

His temperament was naturally cold, and since the Yu Clan member only wanted him to distinguish between male and female, naturally, he would distinguish between male and female, and for the rest, the numerous chaotic causes and effects, the past and future, naturally didn't need further explanation.

"It's actually... really a woman?"

Even though they had their suspicions.

At this moment, when the Double Pupil confirmed their guess, the Demon Kings felt a mix of disappointment and difficulty. In the end, they could only sigh in exasperation.

"Please."

"Yeah."

Shi Qi stepped aside and remained silent, as if waiting to watch the spectacle.

Long Ao Jiao's beautiful gaze shifted from Shi Qi to the Demon Kings, and she slowly spoke, "Apologize."

The wonderful tone was particularly grating at this moment.

The Demon Kings were helpless.

They felt their faces burning with embarrassment.

However, they weren't entirely surprised.

After all, before this, they had already sensed that Long Ao Jiao wasn't Long Ao Tian, but the Evil Eye Golden Eagle King had insisted on being cautious, so they had waited until this moment.

And at this moment, the Double Pupil Shi Qi's conclusion merely confirmed their suspicions, so it wasn't surprising that they weren't shocked.

But this apology...

How should they handle it?

They looked at each other, and suddenly, they understood!

"No wonder that old guy, the Evil Eye, wouldn't admit it. In my opinion, he clearly saw through the truth, and he's sure that Long Ao Jiao isn't Long Ao Tian. But he doesn't want to bear this responsibility, nor does he want to lose face, so he says, 'Be cautious and ask the Double Pupil.'"

"In reality, he's just trying to slip away and sever ties to avoid losing face."

"It's too late to talk about this now."

"Who should apologize?"

"Ma De, of course, we should all apologize together!"

"Yes, let's apologize together. After all, we've already agreed, and if any one of us goes, we'll all lose face!"

"That's right. We'll lose face together and not just my face!"

"..."

They discussed among themselves.

But Long Ao Jiao couldn't wait any longer and urged, "Apologize!"

Lin Fan observed cautiously.

The once-a-year crisis day!

Nothing unusual would happen.

Although these Demon Kings had previously claimed to be open-minded, at this moment, it was hard to say whether they would choose to apologize or cause trouble.

Moreover, the Double Pupil was also an unexpected variable.

They had to be cautious!

The Demon Kings: "..."

Helpless, they spoke in unison, "..."

"We're sorry."

"Rest assured, young lady. This time, we'll definitely make that little person suffer for spreading false rumors!"

"Also, we'll continue searching for Long Ao Tian's traces and make up for our mistake!"

"You..."

Although it was an apology.

But saving face was still important.

As soon as they opened their mouths, they started shifting the blame. They didn't say much before...

But~

Long Ao Jiao wouldn't let them off so easily.

She hugged her arms, making her ample chest even more noticeable, and said, "Your apology clearly lacks sincerity. However, I'm too lazy to argue with you."

"But..."

"You didn't say a word after misunderstanding the Moon Embrace Sect and surrounding it for so long. Shouldn't you apologize?"

Lin Fan: "..."

"Yes, Long Ao Jiao is right!"

Damn!

Lin Fan felt like cursing.

Damn, the Moon Embrace Sect just wanted to develop in secret. Why drag us into this?

Is Long Ao Jiao doing this on purpose?

Speaking of which, how could Long Ao Jiao's brain be so effective?

Lin Fan wasn't surprised that Long Ao Jiao could so easily deceive them, after all, she was based on Long Ao Tian's template! The character setting had already determined this.

The sense of satisfaction was a must!

The power of the Dumb-Down Halo was unquestionable.

If she wanted to come up with a 'plan,' even if it was a pile of shit, she could still deceive them with 'by accident.'

Her 'lame plans' were more effective than the carefully crafted strategies of Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi. Lin Fan wasn't surprised at all.

So, it was normal for them to apologize and leave.

But you...

Don't let the Moon Embrace Sect hold a grudge against us.

Damn it.

However, at this moment, Long Ao Jiao had already said most of what she wanted to say, and those Demon Kings felt so embarrassed that they couldn't stay any longer, even if they were unhappy about it. They could only pinch their noses and accept it.

After leaving a few words of apology for Lin Fan and bidding farewell to Shi Qi, they hurriedly left.

One after another, they disappeared in an instant.

"Pathetic."

Long Ao Jiao scoffed.

"I think so too."

Shi Qi spoke, his expression peculiar.

Lin Fan and Long Ao Jiao immediately sensed something amiss.

This Shi Qi...

Seemed to have seen something! After all, he was a Double Pupil!

A true-born Supreme, and extremely rare.

Most importantly, apart from the Double Pupil themselves, no one knew what abilities the Double Pupil possessed or if they could perceive cause-and-effect...

Indeed, the current Long Ao Jiao was a woman.

But to say she had no relation to Long Ao Tian was nonsense.

Since the Double Pupil was praised as such a powerful being, then... could they perceive something?

But if they did, why didn't they say anything? Long Ao Jiao's brain couldn't figure it out.

For a moment, Lin Fan couldn't understand either.

But...

Long Ao Jiao wouldn't waste brain cells on such matters. She immediately spoke up, "You're not bad. You're worthy of fighting me."

"In the void, you've fought a battle?"

She directly challenged him.

However, Shi Qi chuckled.

"I, Shi Qi, do not bully the weaker sex, especially as it is not yet the right time."

"Perhaps when you reach perfection, you can fight me."

Weaker sex...?

Long Ao Jiao's face darkened.

From birth until now, she had always looked down on others, and no one dared to look down on her! But at this moment, she was being treated with such disdain and ridicule...

Even implying that she wasn't qualified?!

The words 'weaker sex' truly grated on her ears!

Was he hinting that he knew her identity?

Long Ao Jiao glared coldly: "What have you seen?"

"In this world, there's nothing my eyes cannot see through."

"For example..."

"The Moon Embracing Sect Master, who has recently risen to fame, is actually so timid that he only dares to confront others with a straw man, while the real him hides millions of miles away?"

Shi Qi spoke, revealing many secrets with nonchalance, as if everything was under his control: "For instance, the Moon Embracing Sect indeed has its secrets."

"Under layers of formations, there lie two true dragons and a pure-blooded Qilin."

"Oh, one of them belongs to the Ten Thousand Flowers Holy Land."

"However, this trip has indeed broadened my horizons. Who would've thought that true dragons, Qilins, and other divine beasts were thought to have gone extinct, but unexpectedly, there are still some on the Immortal Martial Continent."

"And they are all gathered in this small Moon Embracing Sect."

As he spoke, his gaze fixed on Lin Fan, as if trying to discern any signs of panic from his face.

However, Lin Fan remained calm, showing no surprise.

He was indeed not startled.

The Double Pupil...

This thing was inherently overpowered! In the early and middle stages, they were on par with the Formless Profound Gate.

If not for a wrong step, they would have to fight against the Formless Profound Gate that even the Supreme might have to suppress for a long time!

Can even these strongest eyes in the world see through the straw man technique? Can they see through the divine beasts in the Spirit Beast Garden, like Ao Bing and the Qilin?

Shi Qi had already guessed.

So, he didn't intend to hide it, and naturally, he was mentally prepared.

Therefore, facing Shi Qi's probing, he not only remained calm but also smiled faintly: "The Double Pupil's reputation is well-deserved. But I wonder, now that the Demon Kings have left, why are you still here?"

"The true dragons, Qilin, and various unmatched techniques are all 'jade walls'! And your presence likely represents this year's crisis."

"One must be cautious."

"If handled properly, perhaps there's no need for a fight."

"But if not..."

"Then it's time for a battle, and it might be far more terrifying than the Sun Moon Immortal Dynasty!"

"One must be fully focused, showing no signs of problems, not even the slightest detail, and it must be almost perfect, never showing fear."

Lin Fan told himself this in his heart.

Calmly, he looked at Shi Qi, gauging his intentions.

He was clear that this was Shi Qi's test.

If he showed panic...

Shi Qi would surely strike immediately! But Lin Fan's response made Shi Qi slightly surprised, and he stared at Lin Fan intently: "Lin Sect Master, you do have some courage."

"Perhaps more than you imagine."

Lin Fan laughed heartily.

But he also knew that this wouldn't impress Shi Qi.

No matter!

He still had his secret move!

In any case, pretending was the way to go.

With a light laugh, Lin Fan cast a spell, his eyes filled with countless stars, instantly filling the room with an overwhelming aura... Although in reality, he didn't use any power, at least his aura was impressive.

At first glance, Lin Fan's eyes at this moment were even more dazzling than the Double Pupil!

"If you come, I will return the favor. I'll take a look at you, and you can take a look at me."

He spoke, and as his eyes opened and closed, the stars disappeared.

"Hmph."

Shi Qi scoffed.

He was sure he saw clearly, and Lin Fan's seemingly astonishing eye technique... actually... couldn't see anything!

"What have you seen?"

He wanted to see how Lin Fan would 'act'.

But to his surprise, Lin Fan's face suddenly showed a mix of sighs and helplessness.

"Alas."

"I made a mistake, a big mistake."

He sighed, shaking his head.

Before Shi Qi could ask, Lin Fan spoke: "The Double Pupil doesn't need to borrow others' bones. I'll be going now."

Boom!!!

Lin Fan's voice wasn't loud.

But in Shi Qi's ears, it sounded like a thunderous wave, shocking and awe-inspiring! Even with his maturity and deep-rooted calmness, his face changed color.

And Lin Fan, who had been observing him, was stunned, thinking, 'Holy shit!' At the same time, he realized, 'So, it's true?!'

"Looks like it's real!"

"Indeed, this is the Double Pupil's eleventh template!"

In truth, he wasn't sure if Shi Qi was the eleventh template or if he had a Supreme bone from birth. He was just bluffing, fooling around!

If so!

Or if the Supreme bone had already been transplanted, and at this moment, Shi Qi, this thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy, even with his calm demeanor, couldn't hold it in!

If not...

Then, it's time to bluff!

Just like a fortune teller...

I'm talking about the future, right? Anyway, the future hasn't happened yet, so let's wait and see.

But clearly, at present, it seems to be the former.

Most likely... the Double Pupil before him has already transplanted the Supreme bone!

In other words...

That might be the 'tenth' template, and he's already had his bone dug out, waiting for someone to save him and go all-in!

This opportunity must not be missed!
