Unable to find any information about the Heaven-Reaching Road, Feng Qi decided to abandon his search.
He still had many tasks ahead.
Before little black arrived, he began researching information about "Suction Cup."
This time, instead of using Mu Qing as his starting point, he directly searched the database for information related to Suction Cup.
Previously, he had been focused on finding the connection between Mu Qing and Suction Cup. Now, he realized he could approach the problem from a different angle.
Just like little black, he reasoned that since Suction Cup had survived to the present day, the Future People must have records about her.
He entered keywords such as "female child," "white hair," and "immense power" into the search bar and pressed the search button.
After a few seconds, relevant results appeared.
While browsing the data, he quickly found a record about Suction Cup. Beneath the title was an image of her sitting blankly before an unnamed tombstone, a flower planted in the dirt before her.
What exactly is the origin of White Eyes, whose physical body is ageless and immortal? I've compiled detailed information to unravel this mystery.

Hello everyone! After a two-week hiatus, I'm back! Did you miss me?
Today, we're going to discuss a topic that's been beaten to death by countless puzzle-solving content creators: the origins of White Eyes.
This time, I've compiled detailed historical records, so I guarantee you'll find something new here.
Let's dive straight into the main topic.
We call the girl in the picture White Eyes, a name derived from her pale gray eyes and snow-white hair. The earliest origins of this name are now untraceable.
According to historical records, White Eyes first appeared in 2076. At that time, Star City faced the sudden expansion of the Silver Moon Domain Field from the east, threatening its complete annihilation.
Most of Star City's forces had been deployed to reinforce Future City, leaving the city completely unprepared for this crisis. There was no time to recall reinforcements, and the remaining forces were insufficient to handle the threat.
Just as the city's residents were gripped by panic, our little White Eyes made her dazzling debut.
Single-handedly, she clashed with the monstrous tide from the Silver Moon Domain Field, forcefully halting its expansion. Through a brutal and bloody struggle, she dispersed the terrifying domain, ascending to godhood in a single battle.
This battle left White Eyes with severe injuries, and the rune crystal embedded in her left arm shattered.
The residents of Star City tried numerous ways to contact White Eyes and offer medical assistance, but she remained wary of humans, never allowing anyone to approach her.
In the years that followed, White Eyes settled in Star City, becoming its mascot.
Her origins remained a topic of fervent debate among the city's residents, yet no conclusive information about her background has ever been discovered.
The three main theories about White Eyes' origins are:
The Traitor Theory: This theory posits that White Eyes is the only Domain-Transcending Creature to side with humanity. Just as there are traitors among humans, she is considered a traitor among her own kind.
This theory enjoys the widest public acceptance.
Given that domain creatures include highly intelligent species closely resembling humans, White Eyes could very well belong to a yet-undiscovered domain creature species.
The Rune Augment Theory: This theory suggests that White Eyes is an early rune augment who lost control during an experiment and disappeared. Having recently recovered fragments of her memory, she has returned.
This theory is riddled with holes and ripe for criticism.
A quick look through history reveals that all participants in the rune augment project were adults. The sole exception was the Great Demon King Mu Qing, who was already seven or eight years old at the time.
Judging by appearance alone, White Eyes appears to be only two or three years old. How could she possibly have been involved in the rune augment project, let alone survived the brutal experiments it entailed?
Therefore, this theory can be completely dismissed. Let's not spread rumors or believe them.
The third theory suggests that White Eyes is a descendant of rune augment project participants.
This would explain why White Eyes has rune crystals embedded in her body and possesses terrifying combat power.
In my opinion, this theory is the most plausible.
The rune augment project was completely abandoned after the death of the Great Demon King Mu Qing. However, many scavengers had already completed their augmentations, and some of them went on to have children.
Among these descendants were New Humans born with strength comparable to domain creatures. However, due to congenital defects, they rarely lived past a hundred years.
White Eyes has existed for over 500 years. As the title suggests, she appears ageless and immortal, with time leaving no trace on her.
As for why White Eyes helps humans, many stories circulate among the people, all connected to that nameless tombstone.
The most popular legend describes how a cultivator in Star City discovered White Eyes, severely injured, during an operation to dispel a Domain Field.
Unable to bear her suffering, the cultivator brought White Eyes back to Star City and nursed her back to health.
During this time, White Eyes grew deeply attached to the cultivator.
But human life is finite. When the cultivator eventually passed away, White Eyes, heartbroken, buried him in a deserted corner of Star City and erected a wordless tombstone in his memory.
This was why White Eyes chose to intervene when the Silver Moon Domain Field invaded.
Because Star City was that person's home.
Even after losing most of her memories following the dispelling of the Silver Moon Domain Field, she still remembered that nameless tombstone.
It was the memory she cherished most, the one she desperately wanted to protect.
Whether this story is true or not remains unknown, but one thing is certain: that nameless tombstone held immense significance for White Eyes.
Time flowed like an arrow, and five centuries passed in the blink of an eye.
Today, White Eyes has become Star City's mascot and guardian deity, yet she still refuses to interact with anyone. Her origins remain a mystery, with no records offering any explanation.
Her movements within Star City are erratic and unpredictable.
Some have seen her scavenging for food with stray dogs in narrow alleys.
Others have witnessed her perched atop skyscrapers in the dead of night, gazing up at the brilliant starry sky as if longing for someone lost.
And on misty mornings, people often see her kneeling before the nameless tombstone, head bowed as she offers flowers and silently weeps.
But her loved one is long gone, leaving White Eyes with only memories and endless solitude...
After reading the article about Suction Cup's origins, Feng Qi felt both moved and heartbroken.
He now understood that the residents of Star City were aware of Suction Cup's existence and even revered her as a mascot and guardian deity.
While the city's inhabitants didn't know the identity of the person buried beneath the nameless tombstone, how could he not?
Could she truly be Mu Qing?
For now, this question remained unanswered until he could verify the database entry describing Mu Qing's ice-sculpted remains buried within the shelter.
Yet he knew Suction Cup was definitely connected to Mu Qing.
In the future, after his execution, Mu Qing had taken his body away.
And the ashes buried beneath the nameless tombstone were precisely those of his future self. Suction Cup wouldn't visit his grave without a reason.
Time was limited, and unable to unravel the mystery, he had to abandon it for now.
He could investigate Suction Cup's origins later. The immediate priority was to check the email contents, to see what information his future self and Mo Fei had left for him.
He entered the private email account's code into the database. After a few seconds, the email interface popped up.
After entering the twelve-digit password, the inbox opened, and messages flooded the screen.
As he scanned through them, he skipped over unimportant details, focusing only on the key points.
Email Contents:
"The organization has been secretly established. I've named it Dawn, in contrast to Mu Qing's Dawn. Don't you think it sounds good? Both symbolize the arrival of light. (Laughing.jpg)"
"To uncover the hidden werewolves, I'm keeping a close watch on everyone, including Liu Yue, who seems the least likely to be one. I've assigned them different tasks, with Liu Yue continuing to protect the new generation of geniuses..."
"I've decided to send Jia Yi to the Scarlet Research Institute to gather intelligence. He has the strongest learning aptitude in the Dawn Organization. With enough effort, he can infiltrate the institute even starting from scratch."
"The time is almost ripe. Today, I received intelligence from Jia Yi: the Scarlet Research Institute plans to establish a new research base outside Star City. This time, I'll give each organization member completely different false location data. I've also borrowed a batch of Stealth Reconnaissance Robots from Mo Fei and hidden them at each coordinate in advance. If any mysterious figures appear to sabotage the false locations, I can pinpoint the potential werewolves. Let's wait and see what happens next."
"Sitting before the monitoring screens, I couldn't believe my eyes. None of the false locations I provided were targeted by the mysterious organization. Instead, they attacked the actual correct location, which they shouldn't have known."
"Could Jia Yi be a werewolf? Apart from Jia Yi and me, no one else knew the correct intelligence. Now that the mysterious organization possesses this accurate information, all the evidence seems to point to Jia Yi as the undercover werewolf."
"This mysterious organization seems to have realized that I've discovered problems within my own organization and am secretly investigating. That's why they decided to strike directly against me. After the incident involving the false intelligence, the Star City Military Department opened an investigation into me."
"My situation is now extremely precarious. I should go find Mo Fei and entrust my email account to him."
"Today I visited the technology research institute, which suddenly made me doubt my suspicion that Jia Yi is a werewolf. During the security check at the institute, a chip specifically designed for eavesdropping was detected implanted in my body."
"So, is it possible that the true werewolf within the organization actually obtained the content of my video chat with Jia Yi through this eavesdropping chip? After receiving the false intelligence, he realized I was already suspicious of the organization's members. Therefore, he decided to play along, carrying out the mission as planned while simultaneously passing the true intelligence to the mysterious organization behind him. He also informed the mysterious organization that I had become uncontrollable, which is why they decided to strike against me."
"I no longer have time to investigate the truth. Today, the Star City Military Department arrived again, listing a series of accusations against me: secretly establishing the Dawn Organization, planting spies in the Scarlet Research Institute, ordering Liu Yue to assassinate the human race's rising star, and more. I have no way to refute these charges."
"My death may come sooner than before. I've already handed my email account to Mo Fei and told him everything I know. Perhaps he can provide you with useful intelligence."
"By the way, when I told Mo Fei I had traveled to the future, the kid insisted on dragging me in for a mental evaluation. He refused to believe me, but I couldn't prove my ability to travel through time. When I admitted that all the cultivation techniques I created were plagiarized, he called me crazy. Only after repeated oaths and assurances did he reluctantly accept my claims."
"It's quite depressing. Even though I knew my counterpart in this timeline was destined to die, when death finally arrives, I still feel an overwhelming attachment and reluctance to leave this world... I regret to inform you that I didn't have time for romance or starting a family. However, I've entrusted Mo Fei with obtaining the necessary access accounts. He might be able to resolve that issue for you."
"Farewell, beautiful world. I'm finally free... Good luck to you."
Seeing this, Feng Qi couldn't help but sigh.
In the end, he had failed to uncover the werewolf lurking within the Dawn Organization. All his efforts had come to naught.
And his future self hadn't escaped the fate of being led to the execution block.
Don't let your future self's seemingly carefree farewell fool you, talking about "liberation" and all that. He just didn't want to burden you. Who knows, he might have been sobbing like a rain-soaked pear blossom by then, probably gone through at least three boxes of tissues.
"What's with the 'rain-soaked pear blossom' nonsense? That's how you describe a woman's tears! Even if I cry, it'll be like a real man should!" Feng Qi couldn't help but roll his eyes.
Oh? Then how would you describe a real man's tears? A weeping storm? Crying thunder? Or maybe "manly sobs"?
Feng Qi: ...
After the Narrator's teasing, the sorrow in his heart faded, and he mentally flipped the Narrator the middle finger.
Next, he clicked on the second entry in his private mailbox.
This entry was labeled "Mo Fei," clearly a message left for him by Mo Fei.
