Chapter 524 Demon One

A young man named Bai Shao lives at the bottom of the world with his dependent sister Bai Yao.

There are many children like them. The war that eats people but not spits out bones has displaced countless families and scattered people's wives and children. For example, the parents of brother and sister Bai Shao and Bai Yao died in the war, and they are the only two people left in the family.

Logically speaking, children who grow up in such an environment will be like stagnant water with no hope for the future. After all, no one knows whether they will grow up, and when they grow up, they will be captured and dragged into war.

Facing an invisible future, hope is the most elusive thing for ordinary people.

But Bai Shao is different. He is a weed full of vitality. He inexplicably believes that one day he can change his destiny.

Therefore, he was full of expectations for the future, and he did not want to build a straw hut as a shelter like others. Instead, he saved all the money he earned and planned to rent a small house in the city for him and his sister.

, it would be good to have a tile to cover yourself.

Bai Shao put in a lot of effort for this, and spent most of the boy's time on it. His younger sister Bai Yao also became sensible early on, and the three or four-year-old child can already take care of himself, protect himself, and not let his brother worry.

Thanks to the joint efforts of the brother and sister, they are one step away from earning enough money to rent a house. When they rent a house, they will have an identity, be able to work full-time, earn more money, and completely settle down in this city.

Three days, three more days.

In a boring and difficult life, the stall set up on the street corner every night was the only joy for the brothers and sisters Bai Shao and Bai Yao. The storyteller wearing a long white coat and a goatee was the one who started their journey from this narrow well mouth.

The only way to look at the sky.

The brother and sister were short of money, so they couldn't use their precious shelter money to reward the storyteller, so they secretly huddled in the corner, hiding behind their backpacks, and listened to the storyteller's voice from a distance.

Today, the brother and sister found their old location with ease, a place where they would not be discovered by the storyteller and where they could clearly hear what he said.

And what the storyteller is talking about today is none other than the secrets of the royal family in the city——

It is said that the Seven Kingdoms are currently in a melee. You and I are fiercely fighting for each other, and the war has almost never stopped.

Only on that night eighteen years ago, when dark clouds gathered and a catastrophe approached, the seven countries unanimously stopped their spearheads and had a truce for three full months.

The storyteller was stunned: "Do you know what kind of night it is?"

The people sitting on the benches listening intently shook their heads and said they didn't know.

The storyteller looked around mysteriously and lowered his voice:

"That day was...the day the Ninth Princess was born!"

There were repeated exclamations from below.

"Ninth Princess? Is that the Demon Star Princess?"

"Shh, keep your voice down, you're going to die!"

Everyone knows that Princess Yao Xing is the secret of the royal family, and the Tian family ordered the people not to talk about it, so everyone only knew a little about it. Unexpectedly, the storyteller would mention Princess Yao Xing, and excitement appeared on everyone's face.

Brother and sister Bai Shao and Bai Yao, who were hiding in the corner, also showed curiosity.

The storyteller did not give in and continued:

"Before the ninth princess was born, strange things happened all the time in the palace. Her mother even died of a hemorrhage on the day she gave birth to her, which caused His Majesty to dislike her."

Someone couldn't help but answer: "But giving birth is extremely dangerous for women. The death of the mother of the Ninth Princess cannot be entirely blamed on her."

"Of course!" The storyteller stroked his beard, "But what if the day when the Nine Princesses were born was noon, but the Tengu eclipsed the sun, and the Nine Stars were in a row? The Tengu eclipsing the sun is already rare, and the Nine Stars in a row is even more of a disaster, and in the end

The terrible thing is that on the day the Ninth Princess was born, disasters continued in the world, not only our country, but also the other six countries were not spared!

So today I asked the National Master to give orders to the Ninth Princess. Only then did I learn that the Ninth Princess was a demon star who came to the world. If she lives, one day she will start a war in this world and the world will perish!"

The storyteller's words made everyone gasp.

"Really? Then, why didn't Your Majesty kill the Ninth Princess?"

Although it is cruel to say that a biological father kills his daughter, in the eyes of the common people, it is common for the royal family to kill siblings, and it is not unusual for a father to kill his son and his father. How could the Ninth Princess be allowed to live today?

Storyteller: "It is rumored that the Ninth Princess has been through this several times. However, whenever the Ninth Princess is in danger, she will be born with strange phenomena. There are even rumors that the Ninth Princess is closely related to the fate of this one. If the Ninth Princess dies, then what will happen to this one?"

She will die from the backlash! Therefore, the Ninth Princess has been able to survive until the age of eighteen."

The common people who listened to the book were still curious, asking questions one by one, but the storyteller told everything he knew until late at night, when the fatigue disappeared.

Bai Shao in the corner still had bright eyes, but his sister had been sleeping in his arms for a long time.

Seeing that everyone else was about to leave, the storyteller was also packing up and preparing to leave.

Bai Shao got up secretly and wanted to hug his sister and sneak away quietly.

"Wait a minute!" My younger sister Bai Yao woke up at some point and shouted in a milky voice.

Then he jumped out of his brother's arms, holding the apple that had been hidden in his arms for a long time, trotted to the storyteller's side, and handed the apple over.

The little girl was as nimble as a fish. Bai Shao was too late to stop her and watched his silly sister run over and expose himself.

"For you to eat." Bai Yao held the apple in both hands, her eyes bright, "We have no money, so we can only give you the fruit to eat, thank you grandpa."

The storyteller took it with a smile, not angry or surprised at the sudden appearance of the brothers and sisters.

He rubbed the little girl's head and said, "Call me uncle."

Bai Yao blinked her eyes.

Bai Shao noticed something was wrong with the storyteller's attitude and walked over with a slightly embarrassed look on his face.

"Sorry, sir, we didn't eavesdrop on purpose..."

The boy's dirty face barely showed a little red.

It's shame.

The storyteller didn't care, wiped the apple and took a bite.

It turned out that he had known about the existence of the brothers and sisters for a long time, and occasionally raised his voice deliberately just to let the brothers and sisters hear.

"One's life is all about gaining knowledge. If you want to be a sensible person in troubled times, there's nothing wrong with that."

The ashamed young man reluctantly raised his head after listening to the storyteller's words.

At the same time, he asked the doubts that had been pressing in his heart for a long time:

"That Ninth Princess, Yao Xing... So is the destiny one true? Will she really destroy this world?"

The storyteller raised his eyebrows and asked:

"What do you think?"

In fact, the young man already had the answer in his mind.

Bai Shao shook his head slowly: "I don't think... no."

The storyteller smiled and patted Bai Shao on the shoulder.

"Want me to tell you the second half of this prophecy?"
