Not only Li Yi was astonished, everyone else felt the same.
The red vertical pupil was filled with an evil aura, familiar as if an evil god showed part of its true form in the darkness. If Xuan Yuezi hadn't intervened to forcibly repel the evil god earlier, everyone would have been in danger.
Even so, everyone now had a mark resembling a pentagram on the back of their hands.
This mark, like a scar seared into the skin, cannot be eradicated.
Only Xuan Yuezi avoided the evil god's gaze, as she was a Cultivator in the Tri-Floral Realm, with extraordinary power. The evil eye couldn't affect her, so there was no mark on the back of her hand.
