Long Xi stared at Strange Eyes and shot to her feet in shock. "Th-this is the ancestor's Strange Eyes? You?"
"Don't get the wrong idea. I had nothing to do with Dragon Ancestor's death. I just happened to obtain these Strange Eyes after he died. You're so nervous—are they useful to your clan?" Lu Yin asked curiously.
Long Xi's breathing quickened. "They... are the ancestor's Ancestor World."
Lu Yin was stunned. "This is an Ancestor World?"
He had never imagined that was what it was. In theory, when someone died, their Ancestor World should disappear too. But Lu Yin immediately thought of Rune Ancestor and Ancestor Hui. Had they died? If they had, why did the power to reshape the world still exist? If they hadn't, where were they?
The theory didn't hold up. If it was correct, then Rune Ancestor and Ancestor Hui could only still be alive.
He hoped that was the case.
"These really are the ancestor's Ancestor World. Father mentioned it once. With it, the members of the White Dragon Clan will have a path to the Ancestral Realm. In time, they'll surely reach it," Long Xi said.
Lu Yin held out his hand. "They're yours."
Long Xi stared blankly at him.
Lu Yin smiled. "They're mine. No need to be so polite."
They clearly belonged to Dragon Ancestor, and Long Xi wanted to point that out. But at that moment, Lu Yin made her feel cared for and protected.
These Strange Eyes were immensely valuable, and he was just giving them to her?
She slowly reached out, stopping just above the Strange Eyes. "You're really giving them to me?"
"Who else? You think I came all the way to the Upper Realm just to trade insults with Bai Wangyuan?" Lu Yin said.
Long Xi smiled.
