A person and a beast, one old and one young, were communicating face to face.
The so-called Eye Power, when applied to the Mystical Beast, allows control over the surrounding elements for one's own use. For instance, the whirlwind that appeared when the Ancient Mystic Beast emerged was a result of its manipulation of Eye Power.
However, why this Eye Power manifested in Ouyang Zixin was beyond the Ancient Mystic Beast's understanding, despite its vast experience.
Ouyang Zixin's clumsy techniques further convinced the Ancient Mystic Beast that she truly knew nothing about this so-called Eye Power.
"So how do I cultivate it?" Ouyang Zixin looked at the Ancient Mystic Beast with anticipation, hoping it could offer some advice.
At that moment, the Ancient Mystic Beast had transformed into an old man within Ouyang Zixin's Mind. Sitting cross-legged like her, he squinted his eyes and stroked his beard, saying, "You and I are not of the same kind; I cannot give you any advice."
After rejecting Ouyang Zixin, the Ancient Mystic Beast wandered around in her Mind and was surprised to discover that there was something else present here—neither human nor Mystical Beast.
This discovery added another layer of curiosity to the Ancient Mystic Beast's gaze towards Ouyang Zixin. This human girl was indeed remarkable. Just considering how the unique Eye Power of the Purple Eye Clan resembled her own Mysterious Energy, along with her Mind being capable of accommodating other entities, was enough to astonish anyone—or rather, any beast.
"What exactly are you?" The Ancient Mystic Beast no longer held any hostility towards Ouyang Zixin. From Little Purple—the Three-Eyed Purple-Eyed Mystic Beast that Ouyang Zixin had encountered earlier—it could sense that the Purple-Eyed Beast had indeed offered itself willingly.
In this sense, it could be said that this human girl had a connection with the Purple Eye Clan.
"I? My name is Ouyang Zixin. My father is..." Ouyang Zixin did not grasp the deeper meaning behind the Ancient Mystic Beast's words and began to introduce herself.
"That's not what I meant." Waving his hand impatiently, the Ancient Mystic Beast said, "I don't care what your name is or who is in your family. I only ask you where your uniqueness comes from."
The reason Ouyang Zixin allowed the Ancient Mystic Beast into her Mind was to understand her own Mysterious Energy better. Unexpectedly, it now questioned where her uniqueness originated. She felt a wave of frustration and forced a smile, saying, "Old man, if I knew that, why would I need you to come in and take a look?"
Ancient Mystic Beast It makes sense. Given humanity's cunning, this Mind would not easily open up to others, especially since it is a Mystical Beast itself.
"Hmph, don't think I didn't notice. Even if I did, why should I tell you?" The Ancient Mystic Beast suddenly became proud and shot a glance at Ouyang Zixin, then vanished from her Mind in an instant.
"Hey, why are you doing this?" It appears and disappears at will. Is it true that the older people get, the more unpredictable they become? They had clearly agreed to explore the source of her inexplicable power together, yet now it just walks away.
With Ouyang Zixin's abilities, she naturally couldn't stop the Ancient Mystic Beast, so she could only watch it leave while glaring at its physical form in front of her.
"Glaring at me won't help," the Ancient Mystic Beast retorted irritably, then retracted its Mysterious Energy, causing Ouyang Zixin to fall from mid-air. Some things were not meant to be said just yet.
Caught completely off guard, Ouyang Zixin suddenly lost her weight and landed hard on the ground with a thud, letting out a cry of dismay.
"Miss." Liu Ying and Liu Lu were the first to react. Seeing that Ouyang Zixin had regained her composure, they rushed over to protect her from either side.
Rubbing her sore bottom, Ouyang Zixin waved her hand and said, "I'm fine; you two step aside. I still have something to say to it."
Liu Ying and Liu Lu complied and stepped back but remained vigilant, keeping their eyes on the Three-Eyed Purple-Eyed Mystic Beast, ready in case it tried to capture their lady again.
Ning Zhiyuan did not approach immediately. Instead, he walked a short distance away from Ouyang Zixin, bent down to pick up the hairband that had fallen on the ground, holding it in his hand without making any further moves for a while, lost in thought.
"Since you can't figure out my power either and I haven't harmed your descendants, why not let us go?" From the moment she hit the ground, Ouyang Zixin felt her sensing ability was somewhat depleted; waves of dizziness washed over her, and she needed to rest soon.
Indeed, a considerable amount of time had passed. Unbeknownst to her, dawn was already beginning to break on the horizon. The entire night had been spent here; although there hadn't been any substantial danger, being on edge all night was quite exhausting.
"Ugh... ugh—" The Ancient Mystic Beast howled towards the moon a few times as if acknowledging her words before turning around and preparing to leave.
"Haha, goodbye for now; let's still be friends. Please don't scare me again," Ouyang Zixin laughed happily upon seeing that the Ancient Mystic Beast was no longer causing her trouble.
The Ancient Mystic Beast heard Ouyang Zixin's words and turned around, unleashing a gust of wind-like blades. Ouyang Zixin was well-prepared and pulled Liu Ying and Liu Lu back a few steps before continuing, "So we have an agreement then."
"Whoa—"
Liu Ying and Liu Lu saw Ouyang Zixin talking to herself and cautiously asked, "Miss, are you speaking to that Mystical Beast?"
"Yes, it has already agreed not to trouble us anymore," Ouyang Zixin replied cheerfully. She wasn't bothered at all by the Ancient Mystic Beast's sudden attack; instead, she felt that their relationship had progressed. Although this feeling seemed baseless, Ouyang Zixin was convinced that they could be considered friends from now on.
"Miss, I only heard that Mystical Beast call out a couple of times. How can you..." Liu Lvy started to say but was interrupted by another gust of wind-like blades that made her jump aside in fright.
"Girl, mind your people," the Ancient Mystic Beast's voice echoed in Ouyang Zixin's mind, followed by a cold snort.
"Alright, alright, take care now. No need to see you off." Ouyang Zixin felt quite satisfied to have escaped with her life tonight. A High-Level Mystic Beast with intelligence was actually quite similar to a human. Fortunately, this Ancient Mystic Beast didn't seem to seek revenge for the Little Purple it mentioned; the process didn't matter as long as the outcome was satisfactory.
"Girl." Ning Zhiyuan finally walked over to Ouyang Zixin. His headband had been re-tied on his head, and under the moonlight, his face appeared somewhat pale.
"A Three, oh, I'm sorry for getting your headband dirty," Ouyang Zixin said. After dealing with the Ancient Mystic Beast, she looked just as fatigued as Ning Zhiyuan.
She had initially wanted to ask why she could control the headband earlier, but seeing her so worn out now, Ning Zhiyuan didn't know how to bring it up. He could only sigh and say, "Don't worry about it; just rest well. You look exhausted."
As for other matters, there would be plenty of time in the future. (To be continued.)
