Chapter 383: Chapter 231 Hundred-Eyed Demon, Heading North (Happy New Year, Handsome Guys)
Discovering a new business opportunity, Qin Shou waved his hand. A white-haired girl dressed in an exquisite Japanese kimono slowly descended from the apartment rooftop, landing beside Qin Shou.
"Master."
The white-haired girl whispered softly, flashing a sweet smile.
The delicate headpiece that resembled eerie eyeballs, combined with her innocent and adorable face, and paired with a blood-red, intricate kimono seamlessly fused sinister charm with naivety, delivering an uncanny visual shock.

Night Parade of Hundred Demons, Hundred-Eyed Demon!
In Western European legends, the Hundred-Eyed Demon often appears as a gigantic monster, a trait somewhat similar to the Eye Q Monster.
When the Hundred-Eyed Demon legend spread to Japan, it transformed into a female monster covered in eyes.
It is said that this female monster specialized in tempting men to steal their eyes for herself. If she snatched 100 eyes, she would evolve into an uncontrollable demon lord.
One tale tells of a mage who sought to subdue her when she had already collected 98 eyes. The evil light emitted by the 98 eyes immobilized the mage. To prevent the monster from completing her collection, the mage destroyed his own eyes and, ultimately, used Buddha Incense Ash to seal the two main eyes on the monster’s head, capturing her.
Due to limited Synthesis Points, the Hundred-Eyed Demon synthesized by Qin Shou—using human genes and six Magic Eyes—was merely a cosmetic creation. Her power was merely at Horror Level; she could scare people but would definitely cry from a single punch in actual combat.
As for the human gene used in synthesis...
Qin Shou couldn’t remember when he had killed a girl in the past.
Anyway, she did look pretty.
I, who once cruelly destroyed flowers, wonder what beauty I may have let slip through my fingers.
Qin Shou pulled the Hundred-Eyed Demon closer, gave her a few instructions, and the two walked side by side out of the National Master Mansion gates.
Seeing someone emerging, the five individuals kneeling outside instinctively raised their heads.
The second brother was the first to speak, cautiously inquiring, "Excuse me... this brother, is the esteemed one going to meet us?"
As a low-level Three-eyed Demon, he naturally couldn’t perceive that the white-haired girl beside Qin Shou was the "esteemed one" he envisioned.
Low-level demons couldn’t sense the distinctive life aura of high-level demons, and since the Hundred-Eyed Demon wasn’t a pure Demon Eye Star Person, these five couldn’t discern her true identity.
Qin Shou coughed lightly, covering his mouth, his gaze turning cold.
"You, lowly and despicable Three-eyed Demons, dared to disturb Master Hundred Eyes during her visit to me. What crime should you bear for this audacity?"
He spoke with icy detachment before mercilessly rebuking them.
The second brother was shaken to the core. So the honored one was named Hundred Eyes—a name full of domineering grandeur.
However, Qin Shou’s reproach immediately sparked dissatisfaction from Lao Si.
"Hey, who the hell are you anyway? You’re just an Earthling! Don’t think that just because the Six-Eyed Lord is here, I’d be afraid to kill you..."
Lao Si roared in fury, but before he could finish, the second brother shot him a sharp look, and the other three dragged Lao Si back, forcibly silencing him.
Qin Shou sneered, "Just a Three-eyed Demon—what arrogance."
Turning to the Hundred-Eyed Demon, he gave her a slight bow, "Master Hundred Eyes, I agreed to the matter you mentioned earlier, but I have a request: this person must be dealt with by me personally!"
As he spoke, Qin Shou pointed to the restrained Lao Si, the amusement in his eyes unmistakable.
The five individuals were startled by Qin Shou’s actions.
That white-haired girl... was she... the Six-eyed one? No, Master Hundred Eyes?
They subconsciously ignored Qin Shou’s earlier words and looked at the Hundred-Eyed Demon with suspicion.
To maintain her aloof demeanor, the Hundred-Eyed Demon kept her face unusually cold.
Her eyes began to glow faintly. Around her, the void rippled with traces of light patterns resembling spatial cracks. Four eerie floating eyeballs emerged, emitting golden radiance, accompanied by the roar of giant beasts.
"This... Six-eyed... truly belongs to the Six-Eyed Nobles!"
"It’s confirmed, she’s a Six-Eyed Noble. And since we can’t sense her exact strength, she must be beyond our reckoning."
"This is bad..."
The five were terrified, hurriedly apologizing.
"Master Hundred Eyes, we..."
"Silence!"
The Hundred-Eyed Demon furrowed her delicate brows and let out a soft command; her eyes suddenly glowed golden.
A chilling coldness seeped into the air, inducing an inexplicable fear deep within the five individuals.
The genetic deterrence of the Illusion Lake Dragon Carp had reached its peak. If not for the five individuals’ lack of confidence and psychological susceptibility, Golden Light’s deterrent effect wouldn’t have been this pronounced.
The Hundred-Eyed Demon spoke coldly: "You’ve heard it. I require this person for my purposes, and what he says is my command.
Disable him, and we’ll let bygones be bygones. Otherwise... you can plead your case at the Noble Court!"
She pointed at Lao Si, the golden glow from her six eyes intensifying.
The term ’Noble Court’ sent shivers down the spines of the five.
Three-eyed Demons at the Noble Court? What chance did they have to appeal?
Wouldn’t they simply be at the mercy of the nobles?
No, they couldn’t go to the Noble Court!
Then, there was only one option...
In an instant, the four locked their gazes on Lao Si, their eyes glinting with malice.
Lao Si sensed imminent danger, and his face turned pale as death.
"Master Hundred Eyes, sacrificing me for an Earthling’s sake—isn’t that unfair to a humble being such as myself? I refuse to accept this..."
He shouted desperately at the Hundred-Eyed Demon, only to be ruthlessly interrupted by Qin Shou.
"What are you waiting for? Do you really want to face the Noble Court?" he scolded the four.
The four dared not delay. They exploded into action, lunging at Lao Si.
Unable to hesitate further, Lao Si’s three eyes began glowing, ready to summon Monster Puppets for a desperate resistance.
"Buzz!!"
Instantly, the eyes of the other four also began glowing, suppressing Lao Si’s Magic Eyes.
