CHAPTER 43: CHAPTER 18: HUNDRED DRAGON EYES

Moreover, there’s the influence of the Peach Blossom Tribulation.

In his youth in a past life, he admired and envied the "yandere girlfriend" from Japanese anime, until he heard a story titled "Japanese Love Soup Incident."

The yandere girl chopped off her boyfriend’s head, ate a piece of his body every day, fantasizing about merging with him completely. When the police arrived, she told them to wait until she finished.

Whether true or false, it’s uncertain.

But a yandere might really do something like that.

This was the reason why Li Cunxu wanted to kill.

Yanderes aren’t scary, nor is it scary to have ability or background; what’s scary is a yandere with both ability and background.

Li Cunxu threw a set of his own clothes at her.

"Put on the clothes first."

Li Cunxu turned his head, searching for the restricted spellbook he had Lin Jiusan buy.

Lin Qingwei held the clothes and took a deep breath, immersed in them, her cheeks slightly flushed, resembling a complete pervert.

After Lin Qingwei put on the clothes, Li Cunxu flipped through the spellbook, saying: "Go to the bathroom and look in the mirror."

Lin Qingwei didn’t understand but obediently went to find a mirror.

"What is this?"

Lin Qingwei looked at the eyes in the mirror, somewhat confused.

Li Cunxu said, "Congratulations, you’ve awakened a mutated bloodline talent, the Hundred Dragon Eyes."

Lin Qingwei turned to ask: "Do you know this talent?"

Li Cunxu rolled his eyes, "How would I know what your mutated talent is? Hundred Dragon Eyes was just a name I came up with on the spot."

"The name you gave is nice, it’ll be called Hundred Dragon Eyes from now on."

Lin Qingwei suddenly comprehended, asking: "You seemed like you wanted to kill me earlier, was it because I awakened it?"

"Yes."

Li Cunxu answered without any concealment.

Lin Qingwei wasn’t angry, instead she felt a bit of regret.

She had fantasized about dying at Li Cunxu’s hands and secretly wished for it.

"Come here, spill a bit of blood in the bowl."

Ignoring what Lin Qingwei was thinking, Li Cunxu took out a bowl typically used for instant noodles.

"Not much blood is needed, just a little."

Lin Qingwei spilled some blood, and as the blood was enough, the wound healed under the effect of a poor-quality Water of Rebirth. Helplessly, she sliced herself again.

Learned from Lin Qingwei’s lesson, Li Cunxu made a fierce cut on his hand and spilled blood into the noodles bowl.

Their blood mixed together.

His blood and hers merged into one.

Looking at the bottom of the bowl, Lin Qingwei’s cheeks flushed red again.

Then, Li Cunxu took a file, ground down some of the cursed black gold powder from a black cat sculpture, poured it into the blood mix, and then took a brush dipped in the mixed blood, copying from a contract in the restricted spellbook onto a blank contract document.

"What is this for?"

"Curse Slave Contract."

"What’s the use of a Curse Slave Contract?"

"Sign the contract, and you’ll become my curse slave."

"Huh?"

"By becoming a curse slave, I will hold power over your life and death, and I can transfer curses I can’t bear to you, so you bear the curse for me."

Lin Qingwei was a bit dazed; is this something that can be said upfront?

A curse slave is like the expendable material in battles between Curse Masters.

However, contracting a curse slave has limitations. Before signing, the contracted must understand the curse slave contract willingly, without coercion or bribes.

Li Cunxu spoke in a slightly captivating tone: "Become my curse slave, and I will trust you completely, will you sign?"

This sentence struck a chord in the yandere’s heart; Lin Qingwei signed it recklessly.

Signing the curse slave contract with Lin Qingwei was not because Li Cunxu wanted to control her, but to restrain her, to prevent her from going yandere crazy.

Moreover, Li Cunxu had a curse celestial heart, so he didn’t need a curse slave to bear the curse.

Lin Qingwei asked: "Why did you want to kill me upon awakening the Hundred Dragon Eyes?"

"Afraid you would gain favor from the Senmu Lin Family, go crazy, and use the Lin Family’s power to imprison me."

Lin Qingwei was quite upset; such a good idea, why didn’t she think of it earlier?

Unfortunately, he had already prepared.

Lin Qingwei curiously asked: "If I don’t sign the curse slave contract, what would you do?"

"I’d have to temporarily seal your Hundred Dragon Eyes talent, then make you forget this memory."

Li Cunxu asked: "What’s your Hundred Dragon Eyes ability?"

Lin Qingwei closed her eyes to sense for a while, "There are two pupil techniques; one is to dragonize plants, the other is to control dragonized plants."

Li Cunxu exclaimed: "Dragonize plants? Can your pupil technique evolve plants towards dragons?"

"Yes."

"Is it permanent dragonization?"

"Yes."

"Can any plant be dragonized?"

"Yes."

Li Cunxu inhaled sharply; Lin Qingwei’s Hundred Dragon Eyes was more valuable than imagined.

Imagine fruit trees; once dragonized, the fruits they bear would be dragon-related.

In the Divine Beast World, anything related to dragons is never simple.

Li Cunxu brought over some black iron grass seeds: "Can you demonstrate the pupil technique? Help me dragonize some grass."

Lin Qingwei agreed reluctantly, and her Hundred Dragon Eyes stared at the black iron grass seeds for a while, a peculiar power descended upon the seeds, and their genes changed.

Lin Qingwei’s delicate fingers picked out three seeds she had dragonized.

"It’s done, but my pupil strength is limited, I can only dragonize three seeds."

"Thank you."

Li Cunxu treasured the three seeds, and Lin Qingwei was very happy; she had helped him.

He packed the seeds into a box to plant them the next day. Li Cunxu looked up to see Lin Qingwei in the bathroom examining her Hundred Dragon Eyes.

"How odd, why did my perfectly fine Hundred Wood Eye mutate into Hundred Dragon Eyes?"

Li Cunxu casually speculated: "I suppose the power of the cursed dragon intertwined with your awakening Hundred Wood Eye resulted in the mutation, or maybe you possess the Dragon Eye Long Family’s bloodline; the cursed dragon stimulated the Dragon Eye, which then fused with the Hundred Wood Eye."

"You guessed accurately; my mother is from the Long Family."

Did he really guess the truth casually?

Who cares.

"Can your Hundred Dragon Eyes evolve like the Hundred Wood Eye?"

"It can."

Li Cunxu envied her; he could imagine how much emphasis the Lin Family would place on her.

And it wasn’t just the Lin Family, but also the Long Family.

Being valued by two major families in Tongdu’s top ten, Li Cunxu felt a chill just thinking about it.

Meanwhile, an hour had passed since consuming the poor-quality Water of Resurrection.

Sensing the life lost due to the poor-quality Water of Resurrection, Li Cunxu asked: "How many years of lifespan did you lose from using the poor-quality Water of Resurrection?"

"Fifteen years," Lin Qingwei replied.

"About the same."

"And you? How many years did you lose?"

"Twelve years."

Lin Qingwei lowered her head, apologetically: "Sorry for causing you to lose twelve years of lifespan and sacrificing a chance to use Water of Resurrection for survival. I’ll make it up to you later."

"I didn’t lose lifespan solely for you."

Seeing Lin Qingwei still blaming herself, Li Cunxu changed the subject: "You’re quite eloquent, why didn’t you communicate well with me as a child?"

Lin Qingwei pondered: "I was quite self-conscious as a child, had speech difficulties; perhaps the cursed dragon altered my personality."

Because of poor speech, bullied for twelve years?

Li Cunxu’s mouth twitched slightly.
