Ling Ji's expression was very strange. He looked at Chu Yu calmly and said, "You can't take Huan Yue away."
Ling Ji's tone was so certain that it deepened the strange feeling in the hearts of Hua and the others.
Chu Yu tightened his control over Ling Ji and said in a deep voice, "Whether I can take it or not is none of your business. And what are you anyway!"
Chu Yu's words were blunt, but Ling Ji wasn't annoyed. He looked at the crescent moon in front of them with a strange expression, which was radiating a cold moonlight.
They followed his gaze.
The crescent moon split in two, transforming into a pair of beautiful eyes. However, its eye sockets were extremely empty, filled with a blank space, as white as snowflakes, with nothing else. Its peculiarity lay in the fact that it didn't even have eyeballs.
He was so engrossed in gazing at the flowers that it could almost be described as obsession.
"It's done." Chu Yu gently pinched his pinky finger until it was shaped like a flower and called out "it."
"Um?"
Hua Hua finally came to her senses and said with a hint of confusion, "Chu Yu, it's really beautiful."
Hua Zhen sighed aloud. Although it was so different from others, it was precisely this difference that created its unique beauty, and beauty is inherently different and unconventional.
Ling Ji, who was opposite her, looked at her with a complicated expression after hearing what Hua said, and then said softly, as if incredulous, "You think it's beautiful?"
Although Hua felt that Ling Ji's question was inexplicable, she still frankly told him, "Yes, I have never seen such beautiful eyes."
Don't you think it's a monster?
Hua found Ling Ji's words strange and frowned slightly: "Do you see it as a monster?"
Ling Ji smiled wryly: "I don't know, maybe."
Hua's furrowed brows relaxed slightly: "Only those that wreak havoc on the six realms are called monsters. It is beautiful."
Hua Hua had read about the Illusion Moon in the "Records of the Six Realms". It once belonged to a boy from the underworld, but in ancient times people called the boy who possessed the Illusion Moon an evil thing and regarded the Illusion Moon as an omen of misfortune.
According to the Records of the Six Realms, Huan Yue was eventually gouged out of the boy's eye sockets, and the boy was executed.
People thought that this would completely destroy the Illusion Moon, but unexpectedly, after the boy's death, the Illusion Moon not only could not be destroyed, but also gradually transformed from an eyeball into the shape of the boy's eye.
This is why, although the Moon Phantom's eyeballs are round, it always appears as a crescent moon when it appears.
Later, people realized that the Illusion Moon could neither be destroyed nor used for their own purposes, so they sealed it away, and this became the Realm of the Illusion Moon.
Legend has it that once Huan Yue has chosen its master, it will never change its mind for all eternity. Even if its master dies, it would rather sleep forever than acknowledge another as its master.
That's why Ling Ji just said that Chu Yu and the others couldn't take Huan Yue away.
but,
Hua looked Ling Ji up and down: "You know Huan Yue?"
Hua Hua was almost certain that Ling Ji knew about it. The matter of Huan Yue was too ancient, and very few people knew about it anymore. Even if they did, they would only know a little bit about it, just like what Gu Xi had said before.
The fact that Huan Yue recognized its master is known to very few people in the Six Realms today, so it is clear that a guard by the side of a demon prince could not possibly be qualified to know.
Moreover, Hua glanced at Mo Lin, who still seemed completely bewildered, and it was clear that it wasn't him who told Ling Ji.
So, how exactly did Ling Ji know?
