Eternal Villain: I can enslave Reality!-Chapter 157 : Double Spirit

Xu Shan didn't follow Yunxi deeper into the clan. He let her go ahead. However, he did keep his eyes on her using his Divine Consciousness.

His Divine Consciousness shrouded the entire Clan Premises. He was able to see everything, from the hidden rooms where people were getting intimate while getting worried about getting caught to the places where shady deals were taking place by corrupt elders.

He had more or less understood the entire structure of this clan. The clan was quite poor. Even though it had a few treasures, but they weren't significant.

Their clan was going downhill, which was quite surprising considering the fact that one of their in-laws was the father of the Divine Queen.

Not only did they not have much wealth, but their security was also quite pathetic, as if they knew that they didn't have anything worth robbing left anymore.

Compared to the major clans in even smaller cities, this clan was in quite a pathetic condition. It was to the point where he didn't have faith that they could help him get the identification that he needed.

Fortunately, there was the girl called Yunxi. Even if she was banished by the Divine Queen, she still had a lineage that made it impossible for people to completely ignore her.

"Are you not going to follow your boss inside?" Xu Shan asked the maid, who surprisingly stayed behind with him, as if to keep her eyes on him.

"I don't need to. There is no threat to her in there," the maid answered, remaining calm.

However, after a moment of silence, when Xu Shan started leaving to explore the surroundings, the maid finally spoke, "Please help her."

"Did you say something?" Xu Shan looked back.

"I said please help her. She might not say it openly, but she really needs your help. For the world, the Queen might be a warrior goddess, but for Lady Yunxi, she is nothing more than a villain," The maid spoke.

"Oh?" Xu Shan grew intrigued. "Elaborate."

The maid sighed deeply. She looked at the clear sky above.

"The sky today is so clear. However, it was much different on the day when Lady Yunxi was born. The sky was covered in beautiful clouds, with the only light in the entire Empire shining on the Royal Palace towards the room where Lady Yunxi was born."

"It was a phenomenon that was never seen before, throughout history. However, it was considered to be a phenomenon where even Heaven granted its blessing to the newborn. Many great people came to the Royal Palace to see Lady Yunxi, including the Leader of the Tower of Prophecies."

"Heavenly Blessing?" Xu Shan was even more invested. He had never heard about that happening, at least ever since he transmigrated here. He had only read that in the books.

Even then, he knew what it implied. Yunxi was born with Divine Luck, destined for some great cause of Heaven. It was as if even Heavens came down to welcome her birth.

Strangely enough, Xu Shan couldn't sense any of that greatness from the little girl now. If anything, she was more ordinary than even the most ordinary person in this world.

Without her identity, she was nothing. Even her Star Sign was strange and faded. It created a much different image than a Heaven's Blessed.

But Xu Shan knew better than to underestimate the power of fate and destiny. He had seen it time and time again, how the smallest, most unassuming people could rise to greatness and change the course of history.

Perhaps Yunxi's greatness was hidden, waiting to be unlocked. Only time could tell what her true destiny held. For now, he couldn't see that greatness.

"I know what you're thinking. How did she fall so much? It is mostly because of the Tower of Prophecy..." The maid commented. 𝐛𝗲𝗱𝐧𝗼𝐯𝗲𝗹．𝐧𝐞𝘁

She had been working in the palace for a long time. She worked as a maid for Yunxi's mother as well, seeing everything first hand.

"A prophecy that she was going to bring the downfall of the Royal Family. At that time, the prophecies of the Tower had never failed. Everyone who ignored those prophecies suffered a lot."

"The girl who was thought to be blessed by the Heaven... She was soon the most hated person in the Royal Palace and even outside, thought to be a seed of destruction."

"From the moment she was born, she never saw a single happy day, where she didn't receive curses, or where people didn't wish for her death! However, the King... He loved both his daughters so much."

According to the maid, even as the Tower of Prophecy suggested the King to kill the girl, he vehemently rejected them. Instead, he slowly started to cut his ties with the Tower of Prophecy.

The Tower Priests also didn't insist too much. If the King wanted to suffer, they were going to let him. They just left the Kingdom altogether, before the fateful day could arrive.

For the next few years, Yunxi grew up, cherished and loved by her parents yet hated by the citizens who loved their King and were worried about his future. The prophecy had spread everywhere after all.

With all that, there was one person who didn't like it in the least. It was the first wife of the King, and the mother of the current queen. She thought the King was putting his and their life in danger. Unfortunately, her words fell on deaf ears.

Because so much attention was on Yunxi, the King focused more on her as well, rarely having time for his Eldest Daughter.

While the Eldest Daughter was talented, she never received due appreciation. On the other hand, Yunxi was a genius.

While the Eldest learned to read and write at a young age, the youngest learned that even easier. When it came to knowledge, or sword fight skills, Yunxi always proved to be superior.

While the eldest awakened a Six Star Celestial Spirit, Yunxi awakened something that was never seen before... She awakened two Seven Star Celestial Spirits at the same time.
