Even ordinary gods cannot withstand their gaze. If they ever turned on us, we couldn't restrain them at all right now.
By the way — do they know how formidable they are? " Shen Mu shook his head and whispered, "They don't.
They're still afraid I'll beat them back into their original form. " Ling Yuxiu breathed a sigh of relief, then remembered something else and said quietly, "Do they know they're the eyes of a Taotie?
After you awakened the chest's spirit, it was just like a Taotie — it loved to eat anything and everything, and it even ate the dragon qilin as a corpse several times.
" Shen Mu shook his head.
"They don't know that either. They're simple creatures. " The two jade eyes rolled back and forth, whispering and muttering, no one knew what they were secretly discussing. Ling Yuxiu walked over and said with a smile, "You two — from now on, one of you shall be called Little Yang, and the other Little Yin.
How's that? " "Yes!
" The two jade eyes said in unison, "Girlie! " Ling Yuxiu came back and said quietly to Shen Mu, "These two big-eyed monsters don't seem so simple after all. They called me Girlie. " The two great eyeballs ran off into the dense forest.
A moment later, the forest caught fire.
Ling Yuxiu hastily shoved the small box into Shen Mu's arms and hurried over.
Without a word, her vital essence transformed into water dragons that wove back and forth through the forest, extinguishing the flames. The two big-eyed monsters stood there, smug and pleased with themselves, muttering, "See?
I told you this trick would lure the girlie over.
" "Big bro is so clever!
" Ling Yuxiu was furious. A moment later, the girl came storming over, dragging the two big-eyed monsters by their thin little legs, and flung them down in front of Shen Mu.
"These two scoundrels set a fire and nearly burned this whole woodland down! If this place had burned, we'd all have died with no burial ground! We'd best beat them back into their original form and be done with the trouble! " "Spare us, Grandaunt!
" The two big-eyed monsters knelt on their thin little legs, their eyeballs pressed to the ground. Shen Mu said with a troubled look, "I still need them to deliver medicine to the First Ancestor's Heavenly Palace.
I can't kill them yet.
. . " Ling Yuxiu snapped, "I'll mark this debt down for now. If you dare misbehave again, I'll have your heads! " The two big-eyed monsters trembled all over and clung to each other, their eyes full of terror. "We don't seem to have heads.
. .
" "Shut up, don't talk! She hadn't noticed we have no heads.
Now that you've reminded her, she'll come poke our eyes out! " Shen Mu continued refining medicine.
When the medicinal power of the spirit pills within the First Ancestor Human Emperor's body was exhausted, he sent the two big-eyed monsters to deliver medicine once more.
He himself went to the stern of the ship and carefully observed the divine blood the Great Sun Star Lord had left behind.
The Great Sun Star Lord had been gravely wounded. The divine blood, once it fell on the ship, burst into flame at once, and the First Ancestor Human Emperor had extinguished it with his sword qi.
Yet the divine might within the blood remained, ceaselessly giving off tiny, intricate symbols that flickered in and out of being — a wondrous sight. Shen Mu did not dare touch it. Just then, the First Ancestor Human Emperor came tottering over, drew the sword at his waist, and handed it to Shen Mu. "Try it with this blade.
. . " Shen Mu took the Yuming Sword and examined it. It was the first time he had studied this treasure that guarded the palace at close range.
