Ch 8: Heavenly Demon Pupil

Ye Xiao could feel the warmth of his mother and her worry for him. But he still did not open his eyes or say anything. It is because he was currently feeling an unbearable pain in his eyes. The pain was so overpowering that Ye Xiao could not even groan. For a moment, he wanted to dig out his eyes and throw them away.

"Why did this happen?"

When the pain in his eyes alleviated to a certain extent, the first thing Ye Xiao did was to think of this problem.

"Could it be because I overuse it? No, I don't think this is the reason!"

As Ye Xiao muttered in his heart, he slowly opened his eyes, only to see a few worried faces in front of him. It was his family and all of them were asking if he was alright or not.

Seeing that Ye Xiao has opened his eyes, Ling Wei Long took out a finger-sized bottle and dripped a drop of white liquid into Ye Xiao's each eye, causing Ye Xiao to feel extreme relief in his eyes. The traces of blood also disappeared from his eyes.

Ye Xiao still did not speak anything. He slowly stood up and looked at the ground. Then he thought for a while and again muttered in his heart: "It seems my strength is still too low and the level of that gate is too high. My situation must have been caused by the gate overpowering my eyes in terms of strength. That gate is not simple, there seems to be something very special about that gate."

Then he raised his head and spoke: "Grandpa!"

"Xiaolong, what happened? What exactly happened?"

Seeing that Ye Xiao was finally ready to talk, Ling Wei Long hurriedly asked.

Ye Xiao pointed at the Living Flowers and said: "Those are not flowers, those are souls of people trapped in a fierce formation that is extracting resentments from them and sending them under the ground."

"What?"

It was not only Ling Wei Long, even Ye Molong and others were shocked.

"Xiaolong, you must have been mistaken. These are obviously flowers, they are not souls."

Ye Molong thought that Ye Xiao has mistaken, so he tried to correct Ye Xiao. But Ye Xiao shook his head and replied: "No, they are not flowers, they are souls. They seemed to be flowers to our eyes because of the formation. As long as the formation is broken, its real appearance could be seen by everyone."

Ye Molong, Ling Wei Long, and others looked at each other, feeling conflicted. They have no idea what to say. They could feel firmness in Ye Xiao's voice.

Thinking about the fact that Ye Xiao is blessed by the Morning Stars, Ling Wei Long asked: "Xiaolong, if a formation is the cause of everything, then where is this formation? Why can't we sense it anywhere?"

"This garden... The entire garden is covered in that formation. It is a huge formation and its rank is extremely high. Only those with extremely high attainment in the way of formation could break this formation!"

Although Ye Xiao has the Eyes of Insight and could see through the essence of everything, his own strength was still too weak to do anything for the time being. He was helpless and could do anything about this formation, but he could at least tell others about it.

Ling Wei Long looked at Ye Molong. Ye Molong understood what Ling Wei Long wanted to say, but he still hesitated.

In the end, no matter how much of a genius Ye Xiao was, he was just an eight years old child. How much could a child like him know about the way of formation or the path of martial arts?

"At least try it!" Ling Wei Long understood what Ye Molong was thinking in his heart. In fact, he has the same thought as Ye Molong. However, who told Ye Xiao to be blessed by the Morning Stars? Most importantly, he loved Ye Xiao too much, more than his own son. Thus, he told Ye Molong to at least try breaking the so-called formation which could not be seen or sensed by them at all.

"Then I'll call the Formation Master over here!" Ye Molong nodded and agreed to call someone who could break the formation.

But he was stopped by Ye Xiao who said: "Call someone with extremely high attainments in formations. Otherwise, we will be unable to locate or break the formation!"

Ling Wei Long frowned upon hearing this. Ling Cheng and others had the same expressions on their faces.

First of all, they could not believe that these Living Flowers are resentful souls of people killed over the years under the trap of formation. After all, these flowers were here for countless years, they were here even before the Ye Family settled here.

But from the moment the Ye family moved to this place and controlled the entire Green Flame City, no one, not even the strongest ancestor of the Ye Family was able to discover the formation. But now, an eight years old child was telling that a formation was covering the entire garden and disguised the resentful souls as the Living Flowers.

They clearly know the story of Living Flowers.

Green Flame Emperor was the first one to discover a Living Flower. The moment he saw the Living Flower, he become obsessed with this flower. Then he seemed to have discovered something very special about these flowers.

No one knows what he discovered, but it was a known fact that Living Flowers used to exist. And these Living Flowers were personally planted by Green Flame Emperor.

Then how could these Living Flowers suddenly become resentful souls?

In their eyes, Ye Xiao was just a child who doesn't know much about this world. He must have misunderstood something here that mislead him.

"Xiaolong, the Formation Master of our Ye Family is also a well-known formation master. Why don't we let them try first? If he really could not do anything about the formation, then we will invite the strongest formation master of our Cloudy Star Region. How about it?"

Ye Molong lovingly held Ye Xiao in his arms and said.

Ye Xiao struggled but was unable to do anything. He could only stay in Ye Molong's arms. He knew that these people were not believing him, but he has to know the secret of that door that managed to injure him. As for what is hidden behind the door, Ye Xiao was not interested in them.

In fact, Ye Xiao had already guessed what is behind the door. It must be the Tomb of the Green Flame Emperor.

The Tomb of Green Flame Emperor was hidden so well. No wonder it is said that only Living Flowers could lead people to the Tomb of the Green Flame Emperor. Everything is related!

Ye Xiao thought; so be it, and then said: "Ok!"

After that, Ye Molong immediately ordered someone to call the Formation Master of the Ye Family. Very soon, an old man could be seen walking over. This old man has a very strange aura around his body that caused Ye Xiao to frown. But he did not think too much about it.

The old man wore a red robe and his one eye was hidden behind a blindfold. He seemed to be blind in one eye, but Ye Xiao has a feeling that this old man's eye was not blind at all. It is because a strange feeling was coming from his eyes. There seemed to be more about this old man's eyes than what meets the eyes.

When the old man walked over, he had the same feeling from Ye Xiao's body. It was as if he had seen his arch-enemy, his body unknowingly trembled. He felt very cold in his eye that was hidden behind the blindfold. It was as if his eye was afraid of Ye Xiao.

When the old man was standing beside Ye Molong who was holding Ye Xiao in his arms, Ye Xiao suddenly felt his Heavenly Demon Bloodline reacting to the old man.

At the same time, the old man felt his eyes burning. He suppressed his urge to cry out loud.

"Heavenly Demon Pupil?"

Ye Xiao immediately understood what is going on. The hidden eye of this old man was actually the Heavenly Demon Pupil that the old man transplanted from the corpse of a Heavenly Demon.

But why?

Ye Xiao was puzzled.

As far as Ye Xiao knew about Heavenly Demons, they were forbidden to enter any Land in the entire Chaos, for they only know how to fight and kill. Destroying everything is in their blood and their urge to cause Chaos was something they could not suppress at all. Their appearance means the beginning of destruction.

This is the reason why they were forced to escape into the Void of Chaos.

Then how did the Heavenly Demon Pupil appear in the eye of someone from the Ye Family?

There must be a secret!
