47. Who’s the Celestial Maiden? (2)
There was a little village surrounded by enchanting scenery, the customs there seemed exceedingly ordinary.
The style of dressing was similar to that of the citizens of the state of Tang.
The people here worked in the day and rested at night, it seemed similar to paradise.
As the scene moved closer, a relatively large house could be seen, where countless people were coming and going.
The owner was a scholar with an elegant appearance. At the moment, his face was filled with anxiety as he paced up and down the hall.
In another room, the sound of a woman’s groans could be heard, it was apparent that she was in labor.
Following the “Wahh!” sound of a child crying, a streak of red light shot past the horizon.
The skies were suddenly filled with joyous music as countless heavenly flowers fell from the sky, one after another, falling above the bedroom…
The people within the Hall of Heaven and Earth hadn’t thought that Bai Li’s birth would be this flashy, each and everyone of them focused their eyes.
The faces of the eight great elders were filled with surprise. Hao Yunzhong could bear it no longer: “Celestial maiden! This is definitely the omen of a celestial maiden’s birth! Who would’ve thought she was the celestial maiden!
Ling Xuzi had a somewhat moved expression on his face.
Perhaps, they had actually found the celestial maiden!
。
Yun Hua however, had a slight frown on his face. He could not help but feel that there was something fishy going on.
He indifferently said: “ There are some people who have had omens appear when they were born. This isn’t that surprising either, we should leave this decision to a later time. Whoever is able to control the Holy Maiden Ribbon will be the real celestial maiden.
Ling Xuzi nodded his head: “Correct.”
After looking at the stone mirror for a while, the stone mirror flashed through scenes of Bai Li’s life.
Including a scene where when she was eight, the little village was pillaged by a group of bandits and all the villagers were massacred.
It was only because Bai Li’s mother hid her under her body that she narrowly escaped the disaster. From then on, she wandered from place to place….
Ling Xuzi scowled: “She’s a child from Cloudgate Village!”
Ling Xuzi knew about the destruction of this village.
At that time he had been travelling in that area. Smelling the stench of blood, he had hurried over.
Unfortunately the villagers had all been killed.
In his anger, he had crippled the arms and legs of all the bandits.
Only, he never thought that there would be a survivor from that little village, and the survivor actually came to the Purple Cloud Clan…
Ling Xuzi breathed out a sigh: “No wonder this Bai Li is so timid, she was actually traumatized by the massacre of her village.”
