In the empty secret realm, Seventeen had just awakened from the afterglow of evolution. Sophia's figure had vanished, leaving only a pair of enormous, pitch-black eyes staring coldly ahead.
Lian Yue happened to be within the gaze of those enormous eyes. Her huge wolf tail shot upright, its soft fur standing on end. Her pupils narrowed to slits, and she bared her teeth. Facing those pitch-black eyes, she felt as if everything about her had been seen through, exposed in full.
So scary, awoo!
She muttered to herself.
Although those enormous eyes came from Sophia, and it did not matter if Sophia saw through her, Lian Yue's instincts were exceptionally sharp. Being stared at so intently by those pitch-black eyes was still rather uncomfortable.
Lian Yue did not dare speak, afraid of disturbing the two of them. She rose onto her tiptoes and silently edged sideways, then edged farther.
At last, after moving beyond the range of the enormous eyes' vision, the sensation that had made her fur stand on end vanished. Lian Yue let out a long sigh of relief.
But what exactly are these enormous eyes, awoo?
