"First Person, Second Person..."
Spirit Consort muttered to herself. Several breaths later, Spirit Consort suddenly raised her head, her originally charming eyes now bloodshot.
"Quick, tell Father that tomorrow—no, starting today, we must protect Sixth Brother properly. Gather all our strength and protect Sixth Brother!"
Spirit Consort shrieked hysterically.
At this moment, Spirit Consort looked nothing like her usual dignified, noble, and endlessly charming self. She looked just like a hysterical shrew.
"Yes, Empress!"
Upon hearing this, the woman in red vanished from the imperial palace.
"Who is it? Who is targeting my Ling Family? And who sent this note to me, putting pressure on me? Could it be that I offended someone? And now they're taking revenge on me through my family?"
Spirit Consort clenched the red slip of paper in her hand so tightly that her knuckles turned white. Her voice trembled as she muttered to herself.
"Taking revenge on me? Offending someone?"
Suddenly, Spirit Consort seemed to seize upon the crux of the matter. She abruptly raised her brows, and Lu Chen's innocent, adorable face appeared in her mind.
"Lu Chen?"
"No, impossible. That little beast is only six years old. How could it be him?"
Coming back to her senses, Spirit Consort shook her head repeatedly before collapsing weakly into the chair.
Congratulations, you have successfully saved your Imperial Father from the cage and helped him leave the imperial palace!
Congratulations on completing the Reversal Mission. Reward obtained: Special Supreme Treasure, Double Pupils!
Just as Lu Chen and Azure Emperor walked out of the Great Gate of the imperial palace while chatting and laughing, a translucent panel appeared before Lu Chen once again, and text continuously surfaced across it.
Seeing the mission-completed notification, Lu Chen secretly let out a sigh of relief.
I finally completed this mission by taking a shortcut.
However, at that very moment, Lu Chen's entire body suddenly trembled.
At this moment, Lu Chen felt as though his whole body had been placed in a terrifying sea of fire and roasted. His flesh and even his soul were wracked with unbearable pain.
"Ah..."
Lu Chen could not help but let out a roar.
Beside him, Azure Emperor's expression changed slightly when he heard Lu Chen's scream. He hurriedly looked toward Lu Chen, only to see golden light radiating from his entire body.
Most importantly, blood was actually flowing from Lu Chen's eyes.
"Chen'er."
Azure Emperor's expression changed drastically at the sight. He gave a low growl, then took out more than a dozen pills and stuffed them into Lu Chen's mouth.
With another low growl, nine four-clawed Azure Dragons behind Azure Emperor let out a long roar. Then Azure Emperor slammed his palm directly onto Lu Chen's crown, pouring an endless stream of life force into Lu Chen's body.
Boom...
However, the instant Azure Emperor's palm touched Lu Chen's crown, there was a loud boom.
Azure Emperor felt an extremely terrifying force suddenly erupt from within Lu Chen's body, directly shaking him back several steps.
"What kind of power is this?"
Feeling his palm go numb, Azure Emperor stared at Lu Chen, whose entire body was radiating golden light, and was completely dumbfounded.
Azure Emperor knew his own strength very well.
Although he claimed publicly to be at the ninth layer of the Land Immortal Realm,
Azure Emperor's true strength was at the ninth layer of the Heavenly Human Realm.
He was also only one step away from that legendary realm.
With Azure Emperor's current strength, it could be said that throughout the many nations and forces of the Eastern Cang Region, aside from the few sacred lands and secret realms standing high above the entire Eastern Cang Region,
there was no one who could match Azure Emperor.
Yet this terrifying power had been sent stumbling backward by a mysterious force within his own son's body.
Azure Emperor was utterly bewildered.
"Ah..."
However, in the next moment, Lu Chen, still enduring immense agony, threw back his head and let out a long howl.
At this moment, terrifying golden light suddenly shot from Lu Chen's eyes, piercing straight into the firmament.
High above, the boundless golden light slowly condensed into a gigantic eye.
That eye resembled the Eye of Heaven, coldly observing all living beings and things in the world.
Yet the strangest thing was that the eye in the sky actually had two pupils.
Countless people in the imperial capital saw the golden double-pupiled eye in the sky. One after another, they revealed astonished expressions and began discussing it animatedly.
"Two pupils!"
Beside Lu Chen, Azure Emperor raised his head and saw the golden eye's phantom in the sky, resembling the Eye of Heaven, along with its two pupils. After pondering for a moment, Azure Emperor's expression suddenly changed drastically.
"Two pupils. Double Pupils. Could it be the legendary supreme special constitution—the Double Pupils?"
At this thought, Azure Emperor let out a low growl and then leaped straight into the sky. Nine four-clawed golden dragons soared through the firmament, directly concealing and covering the celestial phenomenon of the Double Pupils.
Only after three minutes had passed, when Lu Chen's eyes stopped shooting golden light and he returned to normal, did Azure Emperor descend from the sky and come to Lu Chen's side.
Seeing Lu Chen's pale face and unsteady body, Azure Emperor revealed a complicated expression. He picked Lu Chen up horizontally in his arms and then turned back toward the imperial palace.
Double Pupils!
A constitution that existed only in legends.
Unlike the Supreme Sword Body,
although the Supreme Sword Body was the supreme constitution of the Sword Dao,
over the tens of thousands of years throughout the Eastern Cang Region and beyond, there had still been several people who possessed the Supreme Sword Body.
But those with Double Pupils!
Azure Emperor had only heard rumors of those with Double Pupils long ago.
Those with Double Pupils were the supreme beings of Heaven and Earth. Whenever one appeared, a storm of blood and gore was certain to follow.
At the same time, those with Double Pupils would grow rapidly amid that storm of blood and gore, ultimately becoming supreme beings of Heaven and Earth, and perhaps even transcending this world.
Azure Emperor carried Lu Chen in his arms, looking at his son, who had exhausted all his strength awakening the Double Pupils.
Although Azure Emperor's expression remained calm, his heart was surging like a tempest.
He had thought that his son would already be invincible beneath the heavens with the Supreme Sword Body.
Yet he had never imagined that his son not only possessed the Supreme Sword Body but was also born with the constitution of the Double Pupils.
The legendary Double Pupils!
Possessing both the Supreme Sword Body and the Double Pupils,
Azure Emperor did not even dare imagine what heights his beloved son would reach in the future.
The bearing of a Great Emperor?
No, even the bearing of a Great Emperor was understating it.
Now, Azure Emperor dared to thump his chest and declare, "My son Lu Chen possesses the bearing of a Supreme!"
Azure Emperor carried the unconscious Lu Chen toward the Central Extreme Palace.
Throughout the imperial palace, wherever they went, eunuchs, palace maids, and imperial consorts and princes who happened to pass by trembled in fear at the sight.
His Majesty was actually carrying the Eleventh Prince in his arms?
What immense favor was this?
Lu Chen groggily opened his eyes.
The instant Lu Chen opened his eyes, he was dazed for a moment.
One could see that Lu Chen's eyes now strangely possessed two pupils.
At this moment, Lu Chen sensed the power and abilities contained within the Double Pupils.
Too powerful.
The Double Pupils were simply heaven-defying. Compared with the Double Pupils, the Supreme Sword Body was practically a little brother.
Lu Chen roared inwardly.
After obtaining the special constitution of the Double Pupils, he immediately learned that the Double Pupils possessed many abilities, each of them extraordinarily unique.
The first was that his Double Pupils could emit the Light of Destruction.
Wherever the Light of Destruction passed, no matter what living being it encountered, all would be destroyed before it.
