After I stopped trying, a rich woman trained me into a demon emperor.

But he did not put pen to paper.

"Xu Youwei".

His voice pierced through the illusion and rang in her vision.

"Whose eyes are these?"

Xu Youwei gritted her teeth.

Silver Eyes was still using Xu Changling's voice to deceive her.

"Youwei, you are of the Xu family bloodline."

"You were born to guard the eyes of Penglai."

Xu Youwei suddenly twitched the corners of her mouth, revealing a blood-stained smile.

She gritted her teeth, gripped the broken hairpin tightly, and pressed it down sharply!

puff!

The hairpin tip pierced the back of the hand and was firmly embedded in the stone slab of the battle platform.

Silver Eyes let out a mournful roar.

Xu Youwei raised her head, her words clear: "The blood of the Xu family will no longer be used for ancestral offerings."

This was the decree she had personally written before the Heavenly Corpse's left eye.

The black and gold runes on the broken hairpin suddenly shone brightly.

Silver eyes tried to close, but were forcibly opened by Xu Youwei's will.

"Open your eyes."

Silver eyes struggled wildly.

"I'll tell you to open your eyes!"

Xu Youwei pressed down hard with her five fingers, and blood spread along the patterns on the array platform.

The silver eye in the palm finally stopped its backlash, and its gaze returned to White Tower Island.

Zhou Ran then picked up his pen.

The pen tip landed in the empty space behind Xu Youwei.

Six black and gold characters were formed by burning in the air.

Those who focus on the eye do not feed on it.

As the rules were applied, the roots inside the silver eye that were gnawing at the main soul broke off inch by inch.

The backlash surged back into Zhou Ran's body through the white bone pen.

His finger bones cracked slightly, the skin on his palm burst open, and blood flowed down the pen.

The heavy pressure on Xu Youwei dissipated.

Her body went limp and she fell backward.

Zhou Ran reached out and put his arm around her waist to support her.

Xu Youwei's back pressed against his warm chest, and her breathing instantly became erratic.

"Can you stand firm?"

"able."

She verbally agreed, but her fingers gripped Zhou Ran's sleeve.

Zhou Ran didn't point it out, but simply continued to channel a stream of qi and blood into her meridians.

Deep within the formation, Lin Qingxue coughed softly.

Fatty Wang immediately looked up at the roof and started whistling.

Qin San then subtly moved two steps to the side, creating some distance.

A blush crept onto the tips of Xu Youwei's ears.

Just as she was about to stand up straight, a new shock came from the depths of her silver eyes.

Zhou Ran pressed his hand against her waist.

"Don't move."

"I didn't move."

"If you move again, the hairpin will tilt."

Xu Youwei remained silent.

She refocused her attention, directing her silver gaze into the black tower of White Tower Island.

The first layer contains the identity files of the disciples of the Old Gods.

The second layer consists of samples from individuals with special physical conditions from various countries.

The third layer is the equity soul contract of the White Tower Council.

The field of vision continued to descend.

On the ninth underground level of the Black Tower, a row of cryogenic chambers stood out prominently.

She counted them; there were twelve in total.

Each cryogenic chamber has the same label on its exterior.

[Sample of the Imperial Son.]

Status: Not dead.

[Container: Incomplete.]

Xu Youwei's breathing paused for a moment.

There are twelve in total.

Chen Ya immediately took notes: "Can you confirm the source of the sample?"

"I can't see clearly."

Blood slowly seeped from the silver eye in Xu Youwei's palm.

"They have no soul register, nor do they have complete physical bodies. Each specimen contains a bone."

"The patterns on the bone are the same as the imperial bone in the evidence box."

Zhou Ran's eyes darkened slightly.

The so-called "Emperor's Son Sample No. 1" is probably just one of the twelve containers.

The White Pagoda Council is actually using imperial bones to create humans.

No, they are trying to piece together a real prince.

"Find the entrance," Chen Ya commanded.

Xu Youwei controlled her silver eyes to peer out of the freezer.

At that moment, all twelve cryogenic chambers simultaneously lit up with red lights.

Eleven of them remained motionless.

In the very center, in the first cryogenic chamber, a figure raised its head.

Through the thick layer of ice, the face had no features.

Immediately afterwards, the flesh on that face began to writhe, and eyebrows, eyes, nose, and lips gradually formed, finally settling into the likeness of Xu Youwei.

Xu Youwei's body trembled violently.

The person in the cryo-chamber opened their eyes, their gaze seemingly piercing through thousands of miles of ocean, looking directly at her.

The face that looked exactly like hers was pressed against the cabin wall, its lips moving.

It spoke, and it used Xu Youwei's own voice.

"Zhou Ran".

"Don't come."

As soon as it finished speaking, all twelve imperial prince specimens in the cryogenic chamber opened their eyes.

Zhou Ran's image was reflected in every pair of eyes.

The connection was forcibly severed.

The silver eye in Xu Youwei's palm suddenly closed.

The broken hairpin on the platform made a crisp sound, and a tiny crack appeared on its body.

Zhou Ran took three steps back while holding Xu Youwei, and at the same time, he drew a line in the void with the white bone pen, cutting the remaining silver gaze in two.

Black gold demonic fire ignited.

One section was burned to ashes on the spot, while the other section was pressed into a transparent talisman by the Wangchuan Heart Seal.

The final images of the twelve imperial princes were completely preserved.

Xu Youwei leaned against Zhou Ran's chest, her breathing rapid.

The bandage on her palm was soaked with blood, but the silver eye still kept turning under the skin, wanting to look at White Tower Island again.

"Close your eyes."

Xu Youwei gave the order in a cold voice.

Silver eyes did not react.

She gripped the broken hairpin and prepared to press it down again.

Zhou Ran grabbed her wrist first.

That's enough.

"It hasn't submitted yet."

"You've seen what we need."

Asura Demon Flame surged from Zhou Ran's palm. The flames did not burn the silver eyes, but instead formed a seal around the broken hairpin.

Silver Eyes struggled for a few moments, then finally quieted down.

Xu Youwei closed her eyes.

"All twelve samples saw you."

"Um."

"Why did you use my voice for the last one?"

Lin Qingxue emerged from the depths of the array's core, her eyes covered by black silk. "It didn't imitate you; instead, it temporarily read your voice and appearance from the connection of the silver eyes."

"It doesn't have its own face."

Xu Youwei looked up at her.

"Did you see clearly?"

"Only a part was seen."

Lin Qingxue walked to the edge of the platform and stopped in front of Zhou Ran and Xu Youwei.

Her gaze was obscured by the black silk, but it landed precisely on Zhou Ran's hand, which was still wrapped around Xu Youwei's waist.

Zhou Ran released his grip.

Xu Youwei stood up straight, the blush on the tips of her ears not yet completely gone.

"That was just..."

"I know."

Lin Qingxue responded quickly.

Xu Youwei, on the other hand, didn't know what to say.

Fatty Wang looked at this and then at that, and suddenly felt that this place was even more dangerous than the Yinlu Well.

He tiptoed outwards.

Chen Ya glanced at him.

"Where to?"

"Find medicine for Miss Xu."

"The first-aid kit is on your right."

Fatty Wang stopped in his tracks.

"Then I'll go find medicine for Brother Zhou."

"He possesses the vital energy of the Great Wilderness."

"I'll pour water for Miss Lin."

"It's on the table."

Fatty Wang stopped talking, paused for two seconds, and then turned to look at Qin San.

"Let's go interrogate Holman."

Qin San nodded.

"it is good."

The two slipped away from the main control room.

Xiao Rou put away the Gu worms and led the Su sisters out of the formation platform.

Chen Ya made three copies of the sealed footage and stored them on the physical server, the official evidence database, and the Yin Si's backup node.

After doing all that, she looked at Xu Youwei.

"Testing was a success."

"Judging from the results, you have already demonstrated the ability to participate in the reconnaissance of White Tower Island."
