“Who is the strongest among them?” Li Anle asked curiously.
“The title of the strongest Pupil Power eye has been contested for thousands of years without a clear winner, but it is certain that the top three are the Holy Lotus Li Family, the Sky Eye Yang Family, and the Yin Yang Zhang Family.”
“Who is the weakest?”
“The Fire Eye Sun Family.”
“Brother, why are you so sure?”
“The Fire Eye Sun Family was once as famous as the Sky Eye Yang Family, known as the ‘Northern Sky Eye and Southern Fire Eye.’ Later, during the Great Cataclysm, the Helmsman of the Fire Eye Sun Family, Sun Sheng, killed an incarnation clone of the Crimson Blood God, enraging the Crimson Blood God. The Crimson Blood God cast a curse, weakening the Fire Eye Bloodline Talent. Although it remains an Epic Grade talent, its capabilities are far inferior to before.”
Li Anle then asked about the Holy Lotus Eye.
“What are the abilities of the Holy Lotus Eye?”
“The Holy Lotus Eye has two pupil techniques: one is called Holy Lotus Protection, and the other is called Holy Meal.”
Li Cunxu took a sip of water and slowly explained.
“Holy Lotus Protection conjures a Holy Lotus to protect oneself. The Holy Lotus possesses absolute defense, famously known as: as long as Pupil Power remains, the Holy Lotus is indestructible.”
“Holy Meal consumes Pupil Power to transform resources into a Holy Meal that can enhance a Pet Beast’s abilities and guide its Evolution.”
Li Anle said, “Isn’t Holy Meal just like Spiritual Food?”
“Their nature is similar; to be precise, Holy Meal is a higher-grade food than Spiritual Food.”
“Because of Holy Meal, the Holy Lotus Eye talent is classified as a Breeder talent. Don't underestimate it just because it’s a Breeder talent; among Breeder Bloodline Talents, the Holy Lotus Eye still ranks in the top three.”
“I hope your Holy Lotus Eye mutation retains the Holy Meal pupil technique, because Holy Meal is genuinely very useful.”
Li Anle clasped her hands together, praying, “Bless my Holy Lotus Eye mutation so that it retains the Holy Meal pupil technique.”
Li Cunxu smiled, holding little expectation that the Holy Lotus Eye mutation would retain the Holy Meal pupil technique.
Historically, the Holy Lotus Eye has mutated quite a few times, but very few have managed to retain the Holy Meal pupil technique.
Having shed the four Sub-Personalities, Li Anle became talkative and asked about the abilities of the Sky Eye Yang Family and the Yin Yang Zhang Family, who, like the Holy Lotus Li Family, ranked in the top three.
“The Sky Eye Yang Family’s talent is called Sky Eye, a Purple Epic Grade talent, possessing two pupil techniques: one is Source Insight, and the other is Sky Eye Golden Light.
Source Insight allows one to see through things, discern the source of matters, and see clearly through illusions and deceptions.
Sky Eye Golden Light is a beam of golden light shot from the Sky Eye, capable of splitting mountains, shattering waves, and piercing through everything.”
Li Anle said, “The Holy Lotus Protection of the Holy Lotus Eye is like the strongest shield, and the Sky Eye Golden Light of the Sky Eye is like the strongest spear. If they collide, does the shield block the spear, or does the spear pierce the shield?”
Li Cunxu replied, “In that situation, it depends on who has more Pupil Power; the one with more wins.”
“Then what is the Yin Yang Zhang Family’s talent?”
“Yin Yang Eye, also a Purple Epic Grade talent with two pupil techniques: one is Yin Yang Peep, and the other is Yin Yang Spirit General.
Yin Yang Peep allows one to glimpse the souls of beings after death.
Yin Yang Spirit General allows one to refine vengeful spirits into Yin Spirit Generals and heroic spirits into Yang Spirit Generals. By combining the Yin Spirit General and the Yang Spirit General, one can refine a Yin Yang Spirit General.
However, only a very small number of people can successfully combine them to forge a Yin Yang Spirit General; currently, the only known person to achieve this is the Zhang Family Head, Zhang Lingshen.”
Li Cunxu chatted with Li Anle all night; he knew she had been severely pent up.
She had been lying in bed for ten years, only able to talk to him, and her body control was constantly taken over in turns by four wicked Sub-Personalities.
When dawn broke, Li Anle fell asleep while hugging Li Cunxu.
Li Cunxu looked at the small Li Anle and wondered if her age had also decreased along with her body size.
He wasn't too surprised that Li Anle’s single body had split into five.
This body had been eroded by the power of the Four Gods, so being a bit peculiar was normal. He pinched Li Anle’s rosy little cheek and quietly got out of bed.
Sleepiness was taking over. Although Li Cunxu wanted to stay and sleep with Li Anle, he still had things to do.
He needed to buy her some suitable clothes.
Li Cunxu first went to the Garbage Dump; the Recording Parrot had already arrived.
He released dozens of Garbage Slimes and asked the Recording Parrot to keep an eye on them.
Li Cunxu had a decent relationship with the Recording Parrot, so it was willing to help with this favor.
Although there was a rule that the Recording Parrot couldn't eat food given from outside, Li Cunxu could give money to the Receptionist Miss and ask her to buy Flying Bird Biscuits for the Recording Parrot.
With this small maneuver, he managed to build a good relationship with the Recording Parrot.
Li Cunxu went to a children's clothing store and bought a pile of pretty dresses, then spent thirty thousand at the Pet Beast Shop on a disposable Contract Slot detector.
Technically, those who awaken their talents naturally can test their Contract Slots for free, but the Alliance records the number of Contract Slots they possess.
Given how unique Li Anle was, Li Cunxu had a hunch that her Contract Slots might be numerous, so it was better to test them privately and keep it Secret.
Returning to the ranch, Li Anle was still sleeping. Li Cunxu lay down on the Rattan Chair for a short nap.
When he woke up, he opened his eyes to see Li Anle, wearing the little white dress he bought her, sitting on top of him.
“Do you like the dress?”
“I love it. As long as Brother bought it, I love it.”
After speaking, Li Anle planted a loud kiss on Li Cunxu’s cheek.
“Brother, don't we have my old dresses from when I was little at home? There was no need to buy new ones; it’s a waste of money.”
“We are celebrating your rebirth; naturally, you shouldn't wear old things and go backward.”
Li Anle’s impression was still stuck on the family being very poor, so poor they were almost selling the house.
Li Cunxu rubbed Li Anle’s little head, “Alright, stop worrying about the money. The family isn't short of money now.”
They truly weren't short of money; they were just heavily in debt.
Owing Chen Xi one million and a ranch.
“How can you not be short of money? Did Brother sell the house?”
Li Anle looked around the all-wood room and guessed.
Li Cunxu’s face darkened, “I didn't sell the house. Sister Chen Xi sponsored me.”
“The TV says women don't sponsor a boy for no reason, so Brother, are you being kept?”
Li Anle’s eyes turned dangerous, as if someone had stolen her most precious possession while she was away.
“Chen Xi, don't you remember? Our Parents adopted a child one year older than me before.”
Hearing this, Li Anle had a slight recollection, but not much.
At that time, Chen Xi was six, Li Cunxu was five, and Li Anle was two. What memory could a two-year-old have?
“It’s her!”
“Sister Chen Xi gave me a ranch and one million, so our family isn't short of money now.”
“In the future, I will also give Brother that much money!” Li Anle said loudly, unconvinced.
“When you were in the Meatball state, could you sense what was happening outside?”
“No. Also, what Meatball? That sounds awful. That state is called Spirit Fetus; the four Sub-Personalities said so.”
“The one who secretly took out a Forbidden Spirit Nail, the Culprit who nearly killed me…”
“If he dared to harm you, I will kill him.”
Li Anle’s eyes showed murderous intent.
Li Cunxu interrupted her, “Let me finish. It was thanks to the Mech Hunter hired by Sister Chen Xi that he was caught. Otherwise, we would be the ones captured by him now. We must thank her properly, understand?”
“I understand.”
Li Anle replied reluctantly, but she felt a sense of gratitude toward Chen Xi, a bit of a proud pout on her face.
Li Cunxu took out the disposable Contract Slot detector. “Come, let’s test how many Contract Slots you have.”
Li Anle obediently extended her small hand and placed it on the disposable Contract Slot detector.
When he saw the number of Li Anle’s Contract Slots, Li Cunxu was stunned. It wasn't too few; it was too many.
A full sixty Contract Slots.
He remembered that upon Advancement to King Level, the Contract Slots would double.
Sixty multiplied by two equals one hundred and twenty.
One hundred and twenty Contract Slots could contract the Pet Beasts for an entire legion.
Then he thought of his own pitiful two half-Contract Slots.
For a moment, Li Cunxu felt envious and jealous.
They were born from the same Parents, yet the difference was so vast.
But thinking about the suffering Li Anle endured, Li Cunxu didn't feel as envious anymore.
“If your Legendary Rank talent were a Beast Tamer Talent, you would be absolutely invincible.”
