Seeking Good Fortune and Avoiding Misfortune: Starting from the Blind Prince

Royal Palace, gazebo.

Zhou Haochen and Helian Hai, one old and one young, two blind men, sat facing each other, drinking.

"Your Highness, I heard that the heart of the Earth Mother Divine Tree has been re-condensed."

"That's right. Luo Xia Kui said that it will only take a hundred years for the Earth Mother Divine Tree to recover as before. This is already a blessing in disguise," Zhou Haochen said calmly.

In the process of condensing the tree heart, the time required for the Earth Mother Divine Tree to recover has been shortened from tens of thousands of years to a hundred years, which is already a huge success.

"I heard that it was done by a mysterious master of thunder techniques. I wonder if his identity has been found out?"

"Well... Minister Mo has been investigating for several days, but so far, there is no news."

Zhou Haochen's tone was calm, as if the matter of condensing the tree heart had nothing to do with him.

Helian Hai took a sip of Bamboo Leaf Green wine, thinking secretly in his heart.

The mysterious master of thunder techniques used Ren Water True Lightning to condense the tree heart.

Your Highness also knows Ren Water True Lightning.

Could it be…

Impossible!

Absolutely impossible!

Such a feat as condensing the Earth Mother Divine Tree's heart, even if I personally took action, I would have no confidence.

The mysterious thunder cultivator who can accomplish this must have a realm far above mine.

How could it be Your Highness?

It's just a coincidence!

Your Highness just happened to master Ren Water True Lightning at this coincidental time.

Just then, Qin Qiulan walked over with two maids.

These two maids immediately attracted Zhou Haochen's attention.

No other reason!

Twin sisters.

They were petite, cute, pure, and charming.

The kind of adorable girls with soft voices and bodies that are easy to push down.

"Greetings, Your Highness!"

After the three of them bowed to Zhou Haochen, Qin Qiulan slowly introduced the two little girls behind her.

"Your Highness, Liyue and Chunyue are two personal maids that I carefully selected. Their ancestors were chiliarchs of the Black Tortoise Army. Because their parents died, they had no choice but to sell themselves as slaves."

Qin Qiulan introduced the twin sisters. Liyue was the older sister, and Chunyue was the younger sister. The two sisters looked to be about thirteen or fourteen years old, with pure and lovely faces, like water lilies emerging from the water, and skin as tender as a three-year-old baby, with a faint soft glow.

After hearing Qin Qiulan's words, Zhou Haochen was slightly stunned at first, and then he reacted.

Some time ago, Qin Qiulan did say that she wanted to expand the scale of the royal palace's servants and find personal maids for him.

But he didn't expect that she would actually find a pair of twin sisters.

Was this definitely not to seduce him?

Helian Hai, who was on the side, suddenly exclaimed in surprise, revealing a surprised expression.

"Phoenix Marrow Jade Body!"

"And twins!"

"Hahaha, Your Highness, you are truly blessed!"

Phoenix Marrow Jade Body!

The expressions of everyone present changed.

Zhou Haochen was surprised and delighted, Qin Qiulan was deeply surprised, and as for the sisters Liyue and Chunyue, they looked blank, as if they did not understand the meaning of the words "Phoenix Marrow Jade Body."

Phoenix Marrow Jade Body is also a kind of spiritual body.

However, this kind of spiritual body is also useless to the owner of the spiritual body.

Because this is a top-level dual cultivation spiritual body.

With a buzzing sound.

In the sea of consciousness, the Eight Trigrams diagram moved, blooming with dazzling golden light. Three hexagrams appeared before his eyes.

[Thunder Wind: Upper Middle Hexagram. The twin sisters have the Phoenix Marrow Jade Body and also bear a deep blood feud. Accepting the twin sisters as personal maids will bring the blessing of obtaining two Phoenix Marrow Jade Bodies, which will be of great benefit to the path of cultivation. The misfortune is that it will involve karma, so be careful in your actions. Minor auspiciousness.]

[Marsh Thunder: Middle Hexagram. Rejecting the twin sisters as personal maids and ignoring the two women will bring no gains or hidden dangers. Neutral.]

[Earth Fire: Lower Middle Hexagram. Rejecting the twin sisters as personal maids and driving the two women out of the palace will leave the two women helpless and at the mercy of others. Several years later, the two women will soar into the sky and kill their master in revenge. They will harbor resentment in their hearts for being driven out of the royal palace and will bear a grudge against you. Minor misfortune.]

Three hexagrams, three choices.

After reading the Lower Middle Hexagram, Zhou Haochen realized that these sisters, Liyue and Chunyue, probably also had luck on their side.

After being driven out of the royal palace by him and becoming playthings of powerful officials and nobles, they were actually able to turn the tables and take revenge!

Even he, who had driven them out of the royal palace, was resented.

After reading the hexagrams, Zhou Haochen would definitely not let the two women leave the royal palace.

As for the Middle Hexagram and the Upper Middle Hexagram, he would naturally choose the Upper Middle Hexagram.

This was definitely not because he was lusting after the two women's bodies. He was just making the best choice based on the hexagrams.

"Liyue, Chunyue, from now on, you two will take care of my daily life."

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Liyue and Chunyue looked restrained, their little faces tense.

"Aunt Tinglan said that you are the daughters of a chiliarch of the Black Tortoise Army. How did you end up in a situation where you have to be maids?" Zhou Haochen asked, changing the subject.

Since he had accepted the two women, he naturally had to understand their past and the deep blood feud they bore in advance.

According to the hexagrams, the karma involved by the two women was not small, but it had not reached a level that Zhou Haochen could not bear.

The sisters' father was a chiliarch of the Black Tortoise Army.

The Black Tortoise Army is one of the twenty-four armies of the Great Yu Dynasty.

According to the military organization, the twenty-four armies are all led by a Divine General.

Under the Divine General, there would be two to three Deputy Generals, each leading three to four chiliarchs.

The chiliarch is a definite high-level figure in the army.

To serve as a chiliarch, one must be at least an Eighth Realm expert, and it is not uncommon to have a Ninth Realm cultivation.

For a Ninth Realm expert to be exterminated, it can be seen that the two women's enemy is at least a Ninth Realm expert.

Hearing Zhou Haochen's question, the two women looked even more nervous.

After a silence of three breaths, Liyue, the older sister, raised her head, took a deep breath, and spoke slowly.

"Your Highness, our sisters' father was a chiliarch of the Black Tortoise Army."

"About ten years ago, when we sisters were still young, one night, our mother hid us in a secret room and warned us not to come out under any circumstances."

"Later, we two hid in the secret room for half a month and couldn't stand the hunger anymore. We came out to find something to eat, only to see that everyone in the family was dead."

"Father, mother, Cuihe, Xiaoyu, and the stewards…"

Speaking of this, two lines of crystal tears hung on the two sisters' pretty faces.

Zhou Haochen did not interrupt the two women until they were sad for a while and calmed down before he asked.

"Do you know who your extermination enemy is?"

Liyue and Chunyue shook their heads in unison.

As expected of twins, even the frequency and amplitude of shaking their heads were exactly the same.

"Don't you have any clues?" Zhou Haochen frowned.

If there were no clues, then there would be no way to defend against it.

Liyue's pink lips squirmed and said, "Your Highness, before we hid in the secret room that day, my mother said three words to me."

"Xuanyuan Blood!"
