Seeing the pink haired fox girl attempt to cover her coughing action, and looking at the remaining half of the tea which she did not drink, Luo Wusheng felt somewhat disheartened.
Was his tea really that bad?
Although he hadn't learned any tea making skill in both his previous and current life, how difficult could it be to make tea?.
He had even carefully chosen the best batch of tea leaves available in the city just for the fox girl. He even used hundreds of different types of tea leaves to diversify the taste. It shouldn't taste bad, right?
The crude and unrefined Luo Wusheng couldn't understand that combining 231 different tea leaves into a single cup is anything but delicious.
Not realizing that his skills are atrocious, he decided to pour himself a cup of tea to try.
Well, his first thought was actually to pick up the cup that the pink haired fox girl had just drunk from and taste it, but his character didn't allow him to do that.
While pouring the tea, he said, "Since Miss Yao Ji put it this way, I do have some questions I'd like to ask Miss Yao Ji–"
As he spoke, he had already filled the teacup and brought it to his lips.
Slowly taking a sip, his hand holding the teacup trembled slightly.
'Yuck, Next time, I need to find Bai Xiaoyao and ask her to find me teacher in the art of tea making, this thing is not drinkable'
After discreetly placing the cup into the table, which is still full with his tea, and silently hiding the small teapot filled with tea under the table where it couldn't be seen, Luo Wusheng made a decision in his mind.
Waiting for this moment, the Netherqueen, who had been watching him, almost couldn't hold back her laughter.
To conceal her laughter, she bit her lip to hold back her facial expression and then nodded after suppressing the almost rising corners of her mouth, indicating that she was ready to answer his questions.
Seeing her struggle, Luo Wusheng's lips twitched.
He knew that he needed to quickly divert her attention now, or the pink haired fox girl might really burst into laughter.
So, he quickly came up with the first question he wanted to ask.
"Cough— The first thing I'd like Miss Yao Ji to clarify is this..."
Luo Wusheng extended his right hand.
And in the next moment, his aura suddenly changed. Between the opening and closing of his left eye, only a pitch-black void remained in his left eye, and blood-red eerie patterns appeared at the corner of his eye.
In the empty right palm of his hand, a shadow appeared, and then the intimidating-looking mind reading eyeball slowly appeared from that shadow.
At the sight of this eye, the expression on the Netherqueen's face, which had been somewhat amused, froze. When she looked at Luo Wusheng's current appearance, her smile completely disappeared, and even her beautiful, eerie red pupils began to tremble slightly.
"Yo-Young Master, you've tamed it?"
Her words trembled slightly, accompanied by the sound of her inhaling.
As the once Monarch of the Netherkin Nation, ruler of the Netherland, and by extension, the majority of the Netherkin race as a whole, the times she showed such a loss of composure can be counted in one hand.
But what was happening before her was something she found hard to believe.
"Tamed? Well... maybe?"
Luo Wusheng scratched his head.
Did he really tame this eye?
Now that he thought about it carefully, this mind reading eyeball had now adapted very harmoniously with his spiritual energy, and he had even gotten used to it being in his left eye... Normally, when an Artifact reached this stage, it would be considered tamed.
But he hadn't even had the chance to start using his spiritual energy to nurture this eye, let alone try to integrate it into his body. Everything had been accomplished by the Artifact itself.
As he was pondering this, he saw that the expression on the Netherqueen's face had completely changed.
So he furrowed his brow and asked, "Is there a problem with this?"
"Phew~"
The exquisite woman let out a long breath, shaking off her astonishment, and looked at the young man in front of her with a complex gaze. "Young Master really surprised this one once again. This one never thought that this Artifact would actually be tamed one day— And by a member of the Human Race no less!"
Countless thoughts about this eye flashed through the Netherqueen's mind. After a slight pause, she selected the parts she could reveal and decided where to start.
"...Young Master should still remember the day of the opening ceremony of your Demon Artifact Pavilion, right? This one originally refused to perform her Guqin music for you on that day because she didn't want to show herself in public, it's mainly because the event of this one escape from the sealing formation is close, but after Young Master defeated the Bloodmist Rat Netherkin, this one changed her mind."
"Because of this eye?"
Luo Wusheng quickly grasped the key to the question.
"Yes, that's right. After Young Master collected it, this one intended to have a private conversation with Young Master and might have revealed this one true identity at that time. This one then would have tried to negotiate with Young Master to take it back from Young Master hands. Unfortunately..."
Unfortunately, Little Yuli and his Junior Sister intervened, and there was also that troublemaker Gao Shi sent by Yue Xuanji mixed in, turning it into a 3 way catfight that usually only happened in drama.
Thinking back to that incident that almost made him mentally exhausted, Luo Wusheng's eyes suddenly lit up. "So— on that day, you chose to leave directly because of it?"
The answer to this question was quite obvious. After all, on that day, it was the mind reading eyeball that displayed their thoughts before Yao Ji decided to retreat.
Sure enough, Yao Ji nodded gently.
"Normally, it shouldn't be so easily controlled by others. So, even though it accidentally went out of control that day, I decided to leave it with Young Master for the time being..."
She made a strange expression on her face as she continued.
Although she had some expectations, as big as a speck of dust, to see if this thing would undergo any more changes in Luo Wusheng's hands, she never expected that he would directly tame it.
Did this valuable Artifact of the Netherkin Race just betray them and join the Human Race camp?
When Luo Wusheng heard the four words "accidentally out of control," he felt a bit uneasy but forced himself to stay calm and asked, "So, what is it exactly? Whose eye is it from among the Great Netherfiend?"
Facing this question, Yao Ji shook her head gently. "Although there have been rumors within the Netherland that it is the eye left behind by a Phoenix Great Netherfiend from ancient times, there is no evidence to confirm this, and there are no records of any Great Netherfiend possessing the abilities of this eye. However, it is true that when a Netherkin uses it, their power would be considerably boosted, so the possibility of it being left behind by an ancient Great Netherfiend is high..."
"As for its name, in legend, it's referred as the [Antediluvian Nether Eye]."
