Chapter 381 Transcendent Truth Eyes Potential

Clara’s narrowed brows relaxed as she nodded at Davis.

Her brother’s ruthless yet smiling stare and the enigma in his question shook her core. However...

"You are my elder brother..." Clara spoke with a smile on her face. It was the same words she spoke at that time after days of contemplation.

She had chosen to believe in her heart, and in turn, that incident led her to take control of her Transcendent Truth Eyes a few months later.

At least, that was at least she believed to happen.

Davis smiled back, "I am not your elder brother..."

Claire let out a melodious chuckle. She was amused since her eyes said the same thing to her like last time, that he was speaking the truth.

"So, what does your eyes say now?"

"It still says that you’re speaking the truth... That you’re not my elder brother..."

Davis smiled as she shook his head, "But I am also your elder brother!"

Clara nodded her head, satisfied with his words. She did not know how he was doing it but was curious all the same.

Davis laughed as he spoke, "So you have chosen to follow your heart! Marvelous!"

As they flew, he suddenly stopped and turned to look at her, "The reason why both the sentence are the truth in your eyes is simply that I wholeheartedly believe in the words I uttered!"

Clara also stopped in mid-air as she simply listened, not bothering to interrupt.

"Not believable? Let me enlighten you..."

Davis looked at Clara and the image of Evelynn welled up in his eyes. His eyes glazed for a few seconds before he pointed at Clara and said, "You are my wife!"

Clara’s eyes widened.

What in the heavens!?? Her eyes told her that his words were actually true!

Davis’s pupils dilated a while before focus returned to his eyes as he once again uttered, "You are my wife!"

This time, Clara relaxed as her eyes told that his words were false.

"How did you do that?" Clara asked, greatly bewildered.

Davis simply shrugged, "It’s really simple. I made my own soul dizzy by shaking up the soul sea with soul force and imagined that the woman in front of me is Evelynn. In other words, I simply hypnotized myself into believing that you are Evelynn."

Clara’s mouth went agape.

"Clara, you can see through lies and deceit but... What if the person you’re observing wholeheartedly believes in a false fact? Wouldn’t that false fact become the truth for that person?"

Clara’s lips slightly separated agape, her eyes displaying an understanding light.

"I’ve pondered over your powers a lot and inferred that it could only see through a person’s heart and mind, not their reality or fate!"

Clara found herself automatically nodding her head to her brother’s deduction. She almost felt convinced of his deduction.

"So when you meant that you were not my brother, you hypnotized yourself to think you’re someone else?" Clara took a deep breath as she asked.

If the answer was yes, then she had no choice to believe that her brother’s deduction to her ocular powers was right.

She had been pondering a lot on how her Transcendent Truth Eyes worked on people. Furthermore, there was another case of mystery she wanted to unravel but didn’t dare to do so.

Davis sighed while his lips moved, "Not quite right..."

Clara raised her brows into a frown.

Was she wrong?

Davis spread his hands as he smiled, "I imagined myself to be my previous incarnation, the one from this place..."

Clara’s raised brows once again widened giving her a shock, "Brother, you have your previous life’s memories!?"

Davis solemnly nodded his head, "Yes..."

"..."

Only silence and a cold breeze flew past them as they stood on the sky, staring at each other.

"... No wonder," Clara muttered, "No wonder you knew so many things about this unique world."

In the cultivation world, reincarnation was a concept that almost everyone believed in even though there was not much shreds of evidence about it.

It was in their culture and blood to have faith in the next life.

In most cases, Cultivation was about gaining eternity, to live an endless life.

If one’s life completely ceases to exist in the future, then what was the use of living or cultivating? Couldn’t they just end their misery and be done with it?

Hence, reincarnation and the very concept of it was a kind of hope to not only the cultivators but also to the mortals in the cultivation world.

Davis nodded but his face withered, "My theory about your ocular powers is probably correct if you can confirm this final fact."

"Mhm?" Clara turned confused, ’What does elder brother mean? Didn’t he already say that my powers can only see through one’s heart and mind?’

"I’m talking about the potential of your Transcendent Truth Eyes. If it can only see through one’s lies and deceit, it doesn’t differ much from the ethereal heart intent which mother vaguely told us about, don’t you think so?"

Clara turned startled as she was enlightened but she smiled.

She herself was the most knowledgeable about the Transcendent Truth Eyes since she was the possessor. It was just she couldn’t put her finger on how she would perceive the results of her power.

It depended on what her eye told her, and like a seer, she was left to interpret it through experience.

"In any case, if you got a special power in those two pairs of eyes of yours, it’s time to reveal it. I would be especially needing it right now..." Davis awkwardly laughed.

Clara shook her head, "It is as you said brother, but, I don’t think I have mastered the power yet. The last time I used that power, I fainted and it was Princess Shirley who protected me from harm’s way."

’What!?’ Davis became inwardly startled.

Such a thing happened?

"Oh? When did this happen!?" His facial expression turned curious but also worried.

"Right after I competed Ice Phoenix Trial, the moment I broke through to the Body Transformation Stage, I tried to use my newfound ocular powers but I instantly went blind for a few seconds, and even worse, I fainted."

Clara looked stiff however her eyes exuded a little bit of fear.

"When I woke up, I felt lethargic... but safe..."

"Something like that happened and we didn’t even thank her..." Davis sighed as she shook his head, feeling apologetic.

As to who he was feeling apologetic towards? Of course, it was Princess Shirley.

That woman seems to be doing things that would make him like her and even shows extravagant favor towards him.

However, she was the one who rejected the marriage at that time, not him. She rejected him with the premise that he would not love her wholeheartedly and would instead leave for someplace.

With his disposition and needs, he imagined he wouldn’t want to be with a woman who constantly changes her emotions based on silly reasons.

"Brother..."

"Hmm?" Davis came out of his reverie as he turned to look at Clara.

"Are you really not going to marry Princess Shirley?"

"..."

Davis blinked.

Where did this question suddenly pop up from?

Especially when it came from his little sister Clara, it caught him off-guard.

"In case you didn’t know, the marriage pact between me and Princess Shirley is already null and void." Davis took his index finger and pressed it to his chin.

Clara shook her head, "I’m not talking about that... I..."

However, she suddenly paused.

In her mind, a worried face popped up and the words she was going to say grew stuck in her throat.

Clara’s half-agape lips closed and she shook her head again, "Mhm... It’s nothing."
